Sibling Development: Implications for Mental Health Practitioners. Springer Publishing Company. p.147. ISBN 978-0-8261-1753-3. Philosopher-teacher Amos Bronson Alcott, educated his four daughters, Anna, Louisa, Elizabeth and May and Abigail May, wife of Amos, reared them on her practical Christianity.Hillside (later renamed The Wayside), the Alcott family home (1845–1848) and real-life setting for some of the book's scenes Matthew Perry would still have merited TV immortality if he’d never appeared in anything after Friends: 99.9% of actors spend their careers failing to land a role like Chandler Bing. Just as James Gandolfini can be remembered as a great dramatic actor on the strength of Tony Soprano alone, the brilliance of Perry – who died this week aged 54 – is all there in Chandler. Perry understood how to make the funny lines funnier and the so-so lines funny enough, doing his job so well that he created a particular sense of humour that spread way beyond the show itself. It’s just obvious when someone you know is a Chandler, or when you make a Chandler joke yourself: such definitive TV roles are exceptionally rare. Little Women has been adapted to film seven times. The first adaptation was a silent film directed by Alexander Butler and released in 1917, which starred Daisy Burrell as Amy, Mary Lincoln as Meg, Ruby Miller as Jo, and Muriel Myers as Beth. It is considered a lost film. [58] Susina, Jan (1999). "Men and Little Women Notes of a Resisting (Male) Reader". In Alberghene, Janice M.; Clark, Beverly Lyon (eds.).
