Abstract

Margaret Gough never expected to go to university and was shocked to find herself serving a long prison sentence. In this chapter she provides a vivid account of how one led to the other as she rediscovered her talent for learning in prison. Her Open University studies opened more doors than she expected, and though her account of harrowing times moves toward hopeful conclusions, she remains circumspect that the stains of imprisonment can be removed while prejudice against those who have been in prison goes unchallenged.

从绝望到希望
玛格丽特·高夫(Margaret Gough)从未想过自己会上大学,当她发现自己被判长期监禁时,她感到震惊。在这一章中,她生动地描述了她在监狱中重新发现自己的学习才能时,二者是如何相互影响的。她在开放大学(Open University)的学习为她打开了比预期更多的大门,尽管她对那段痛苦时光的描述走向了充满希望的结论,但她仍然谨慎地认为,监禁的污点可以消除,而对那些曾经入狱的人的偏见却没有受到挑战。
