O ovoj e-knjizi
What Every Woman Knows is a play written by J. M. Barrie. It tells the story of Maggie Wylie, a young Scottish woman who possesses an incredible amount of practical knowledge and common sense, which she uses to help those around her. Despite her intelligence and capabilities, she is often underestimated because of her gender. The play follows her journey as she finds love, marries, and uses her cunning and wit to secure her husband's political career. Throughout the play, Maggie proves that a woman can be just as clever and capable as any man, and that there is a place for women in the political world.
O autoru
Sir James Matthew Barrie, known as J. M. Barrie, was born on May 9, 1860, in Kirriemuir, Scotland. He is best remembered as the creator of Peter Pan, the boy who wouldn't grow up, a character that has become an enduring symbol of childhood and escapism. Barrie's early life was marked by the tragic death of his older brother David, which profoundly affected his family and influenced his literary themes of loss and eternal youth.Barrie's career began in journalism, but he soon transitioned to writing novels and plays. His works often explore the complexities of human relationships and the interplay between reality and imagination. The whimsical yet poignant nature of his storytelling has captivated audiences for generations.One of the most intriguing aspects of Barrie's life is his relationship with the Llewelyn Davies family, who inspired the characters of the Darling children in Peter Pan. This relationship has been the subject of much speculation and controversy, particularly regarding Barrie's intentions and the nature of his bond with the boys.Despite these controversies, Barrie's influence on contemporary literature and popular culture is undeniable. His creation of Peter Pan has inspired countless adaptations, including stage plays, films, and even theme park attractions. Barrie's exploration of themes such as the innocence of childhood and the inevitability of growing up continues to resonate with modern audiences.Barrie was knighted in 1913 and later became the President of the Society of Authors. His legacy is not only preserved in his beloved works but also in his generous spirit; he bequeathed the rights to Peter Pan to the Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children, ensuring that his creation would continue to bring joy and support to future generations.
