The Author of the Acacia Seeds and Other Extracts from the Journal of the Association of Therolinguistics
Автор: Урсула Ле ГуинЖанр: Иностранная литература
"The Author of the Acacia Seeds" records the entirely fictional results of such 'subjectivism' carried rather farther than seems probable. It grew in part out of the arguments over the experiments in language acquisition by great apes (in which, of course, if the ape is not approached as a grammatical subject, failure of the experiment is guaranteed). Some linguists deny the capacity of apesto talk in quite the same spirit in which their intellectual forebears denied the capacity of women to think If these great men are threatened by Koko the gorilla speaking a little ASL, how would they feel reading a lab report written by the rat? v1.0 - eBook downloaded from http://torrents.ru/forum/viewtopic.php?t=463754 and after that imported to fb2 by soshial (23.05.2008)
О книгеThe Day before the Revolution
Автор: Урсула Ле ГуинЖанр: Иностранная литература
NB! Has to be corrected according to russian translation (http://lib.rus.ec/b/69991). "The Day Before the Revolution" won the Nebula Award for the best science-fiction short story of 1974. Ursula's The Dispossessed won the Nebula Award and the Hugo Award for the best novel of 1974. The Le Guin award-winning spree began with her 1969 novel The Left Hand of Darkness, which won both the Nebula and Hugo awards and to my mind did more to exploit the potential of the science-fiction novel than anything published to that time; and it continued with her Hugo novella of 1971, "The Word for World Is Forest," her Hugo short story of 1973, "The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas, and the 1973 National Book Award in children's literature for her novel The Farthest Shore. Ursula comes naturally to writing and science: her mother was an author, her father an anthropologist; her husband is a Portland State College professor of French history, and she herself, besides her family of three children, possesses an advanced degree in French and Italian Renaissance literature. The story that follows is cut from the same fictional tapestry as The Dispossessed. v1.0 - eBook downloaded from http://torrents.ru/forum/viewtopic.php?t=463754 and after that imported to fb2 by soshial (21.05.2008)

Автор: Урсула Ле ГуинЖанр: Иностранная литература
WINNER OF THE HUGO AWARD AND THE NEBULA AWARD FOR BEST SCIENCE FICTION NOVEL OF THE YEAR 1969 URSULA KROEBER LE GUIN, daughter of A. L. Kroeber (anthropologist) and Theodora Kroeber (author), was born in Berkeley, California in 1929. She attended college at Radcliffe and Columbia, and married C. A. LeGuin in Paris in 1951. The LeGuins and their three children live in Portland, Oregon. Ursula LeGuin's previous novels include ROCANNON'S WORLD, PLANET OF EXILE and CITY OF ILLUSIONS, and THE LEFT HAND OF DARKNESS, all published by Ace Books. Like THE LEFT HAND OF DARKNESS, each novel is complete in itself, but they are all part of a greater, growing mosaic of far-future history that is consistent from novel to novel. With the awarding of the 1975 Hugo and Nebula awards to The Dispossessed, Ursula K. Le Guin became the first author to win both awards twice for novels. scanned & proofed by Binwiped 10/11/02 v1, formatting updated, missing pages scanned and restored, the whole compared to the 14th ACE print run of June, 1977 by MollyKate for #bookz, (26.10.2002); then released in #bookz by MollyKate, downloaded from http://torrents.ru/forum/viewtopic.php?t=463754 and after that imported to fb2 by soshial (20.05.2008)

О книгеДалеко-далеко отовсюду
Автор: Урсула Ле ГуинЖанр: Разное
В сборник, составленный прогрессивной американской деятельницей М. Мортон, вошли повести современных писателей США — У. Ле Гуин, К. Хантер, М. Эллиса. Все они — о трудном положении подрастающего поколения в Америке, а также о проблемах национальных меньшинств в этой стране. С художественной убедительностью и глубокой симпатией авторы создают образы гордых и смелых людей, готовых во имя справедливости и чести на самопожертвование. Широко показаны в повестях нравы и обычаи народа, борьба за права против произвола властей. Из предисловия: … Повесть «Далеко-далеко отовсюду» говорит о сокровенных мыслях и чувствах двух героев и на самом деле не так уж «далека» от молодого читателя других стран. Она принадлежит к числу очень немногих американских повестей, в которых описываются не столько ситуации и действия героев, сколько их духовная жизнь. Юному читателю или читательнице наверняка знаком конфликт между желанием угодить родителям и стремлением самостоятельно определить свои жизненные ценности и жизненные цели, между стремлением реализовать свои интеллектуальные или творческие замыслы и властными искушениями ранней любви. … Мириам Мортон, США
