Download or read book Annus Horribilis written by Mark Walker and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2010-12-26 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone remembers the Queen’s ‘Annus Horribilis’, but what do 'quid pro quo' and 'habeas corpus' mean? Why do plants have Latin names? Why do families, towns, countries and even football teams have Latin mottoes? What do the Latin epitaphs in churches say? What are the words of Mozart's 'Requiem'?These are just a few of the topics covered in this book. As Mark Walker makes clear, present-day English is still steeped in its Roman and Latin origins. As a result English still has many thousands of Latin words in everyday use.

Book excerpt: Mistakes, mishaps, cock-ups - they just aren't given the recognition they deserve. They make life interesting and human beings (some more than others) have a genuine flair for them. So why does history only record the world's dull and worthy achievements? Annus Horribilis sets the record straight by celebrating good old-fashioned failures. From the man whose spectacular escape from prison was spoiled when he was eaten by a crocodile to the husband who choked to death on his own wife, via several exploding whales, numerous celebrity meltdowns and countless predictions that proved to be wholly inaccurate, Annus Horribilis proves once and for all, that there's no success like failure.

A través de manuscritos que se remontan a la fatídica fecha de 1666, que trajo a Inglaterra la guerra, la peste y el fuego de Londres; descubrirá cómo la vida de sus progenitores dio un vuelco al intentar entrometerse en el negocio de Christopher Harris, un bronco tratante de esclavos. Un viaje de amor e infortunio desde Bristol, boyante por el creciente tráfico de esclavos, hasta un decadente Londres amenazado por la sombra de la plaga.

Download or read book The Queen's Speech written by Ingrid Seward and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2015-08-27 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During her 70 years on the throne, few got to know the Queen well, but there is one body of work that sheds new light on her thoughts, personality and the issues that really concerned her: the Queen's own speeches. For many years, the Queen's Christmas address was the most-watched programme on television on Christmas Day, and millions regularly tuned in to hear what she had to say. Now, in this wonderful, intimate portrait of Her Majesty, Ingrid Seward uses the Queen's speeches as a starting point to provide a revealing insight into the character of the woman who reigned over us since the days when Churchill was prime minister. Starting with her first-ever broadcast, in December 1940, when the teenaged Princess Elizabeth addressed a war-torn nation, right through the annus horribilis, and on into the 21st century, the book highlights the most important moments in her life and how she responded to them. Based on in-depth research and interviews with many of those who knew the Queen best, this book sheds new light on the life and career of our much-missed monarch. Renowned as one of the most authoritative writers on royal matters, Ingrid Seward, the editor of Majesty magazine, has written a charming and fascinating portrait that will be cherished by all who read it.

Book excerpt: Alkmaar, May 1944. Fourteen-year-old Victor Stikvoort hid in the attic after his father told someone to go into hiding. A few days later, the Germans came to raid their house, but no one was found there, not even when they searched the attic.

David Klaver (Alkmaar, 1970) began working on the novel after completing his training as an advertising designer and becoming a freelance illustrator for a regional newspaper. This novel is his debut.

Book Synopsis The Name for the God Who Speaks by : Gregory Byrd
Download or read book The Name for the God Who Speaks written by Gregory Byrd and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2020-02-14 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The poems in The Name for the God Who Speaks reference Caribbean deities, the power of weather and landscape and ancient myths to illuminate an annus horribilis of cancer and loss. In the last poems, youth and music redeem the experience. This is the Name for the God who Speaks Father, you would know these primal prayers, light flashing in the west behind live oaks, a sky-slashed language dead after Conquest. From that living world, we share only lightning, an old god speaking light out of darkness, a chant of rain as alphabet where water flowing is a word.

Book Synopsis Annus Horribilis by : Avinab Datta-Areng
Download or read book Annus Horribilis written by Avinab Datta-Areng and published by Penguin Random House India Private Limited. This book was released on 2022-02-28 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A STANDOUT DEBUT COLLECTION OF POETRY Annus Horribilis is concerned with the violence of thinking, alone. The voices in these poems move through relationships, family, friendship, external disintegration, the labour of loving, being loved and of caring, where they are constantly confronted with the familiar turning foreign, the quotidian becoming a scene of absolute hostility, and where a word otherwise spoken easily becomes incommunicable. The book grapples with a (habitually futile) desire to communicate what should only be communicable-looking for some friend in language-that won't lead to misunderstanding or, worse, silence. It searches for a language in which thought might survive and perhaps even reach out towards others.
