Book Synopsis The Prodigal Tongue by : Lynne Murphy
Download or read book The Prodigal Tongue written by Lynne Murphy and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2018-04-10 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CHOSEN BY THE ECONOMIST AS A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR An American linguist teaching in England explores the sibling rivalry between British and American English “English accents are the sexiest.” “Americans have ruined the English language.” Such claims about the English language are often repeated but rarely examined. Professor Lynne Murphy is on the linguistic front line. In The Prodigal Tongue she explores the fiction and reality of the special relationship between British and American English. By examining the causes and symptoms of American Verbal Inferiority Complex and its flipside, British Verbal Superiority Complex, Murphy unravels the prejudices, stereotypes and insecurities that shape our attitudes to our own language. With great humo(u)r and new insights, Lynne Murphy looks at the social, political and linguistic forces that have driven American and British English in different directions: how Americans got from centre to center, why British accents are growing away from American ones, and what different things we mean when we say estate, frown, or middle class. Is anyone winning this war of the words? Will Yanks and Brits ever really understand each other?

Book Synopsis Disgusted Ladies by : Anne Carwardine
Download or read book Disgusted Ladies written by Anne Carwardine and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2018-03-20 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Readable and immersive local history. Provides a great way of learning about the national Votes for Women campaign. Ties in with the 100th anniversary of women first getting the vote in the UK. Draws on in-depth research to provide a historically accurate account. From Matilda Biggs, who signed the first national petition in 1866, to Olive Walton, who went on hunger strike and was force fed in 1912, Tunbridge Wells was home to a series of ordinary yet extraordinary Votes for Women campaigners. The ‘disgusted ladies’ were very different from the angry newspaper correspondent who would occupy the columns of local newspapers in later decades. They were also angry, but their anger had a specific focus – the government’s continual refusal to give them the vote. Their activities included collecting petition signatures, marching, selling suffrage newspapers, fundraising, running shops, evading the census and withholding taxes. And, with London only a short train journey away, they were present at many of the major protests and processions which took place there. Drawing on a wide range of sources, including diaries, personal papers and contemporary newspapers, Disgusted Ladies brings the stories of these amazing women to life.

Book Synopsis Thinking of Answers by : A. C. Grayling
Download or read book Thinking of Answers written by A. C. Grayling and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2010-08-10 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his acclaimed columns in the London Times and Prospect, A. C. Grayling often responds to provocative questions posed by editors and readers. These questions serve as the basis for the essays in Thinking of Answers, among them searching examinations of the following: - Are human beings especially prone to self-deception? - If beauty existed only in the eye of the beholder, would that make it an unimportant quality? - Are human rights political? - Can ethics be derived from evolution by natural selection? - If both sides in a conflict passionately believe theirs is a just cause, does this mean the idea of justice is empty? - Does being happy make us good? And does being good make us happy? As in his previous books on philosophy for the general public, including Meditations for the Humanist and Life, Sex and Ideas, rather than presenting a set of categorical answers, Grayling offers suggestions for how to think about every aspect of the question at hand and arrive at one's own conclusion. Nobody can read Thinking of Answers without being fully engaged, for Grayling challenges with his intellect and inspires with his humanity.
Download or read book Authentocrats written by Joe Kennedy and published by Watkins Media Limited. This book was released on 2018-06-19 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Authentocrats" claim to the be the new voice of common sense that speak for the common man and woman; right-wing, traditional and dangerous, Joe Kennedy argues that they are everything but what they purport to be. In contemporary Britain, a lot has been said about what it is that “real people” want politically. Forgotten by elites and sick of globalisation, so the story goes, they demand patriotism, respect for the military, assurances on defence, and controls on immigration. In trying to meet these supposed wishes, politicians attempt to appear normal, salt-of-the-earth, authentic. Authentocrats examines the function of this “authenticity” in a centrist politics which, paradoxically, often defines itself as cosmopolitan, technocratic and opposed to populism. Casting a doubtful eye over – amongst other things – latter-day James Bond films, contemporary nature writing and stand-up comedy, Authentocrats suggests that the sooner we can break with the sententiousness of a skewed conception of authenticity in aesthetics and politics the better.

The war everyone dreaded has begun at last, but for Susan Cahill it is more an adventure than a tragedy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Criminal cases raise difficult normative and legal questions, and are often a consequence of compelling human drama. In this collection, expert authors place leading cases in criminal law in their historical and legal contexts, highlighting their significance both in the past and for the present. The cases in this volume range from the fifteenth to the twenty-first century. Many of them are well known to modern criminal lawyers and students; others are overlooked landmarks that deserve reconsideration. The essays, often based on extensive and original archival research, range over a wide spectrum of criminal law, covering procedure and doctrine, statute and common law, individual offences and general principles. Together, the essays explore common themes, including the scope of criminal law and criminalisation, the role of the jury, and the causes of change in criminal law.
Book Synopsis Kisses Sweeter Than Wine by : Richard Hernaman Allen
Download or read book Kisses Sweeter Than Wine written by Richard Hernaman Allen and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2017-08-13 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1977/8. Informed by an Italian diplomat that English Wine producers are using foreign grapes, Nick Storey investigates, but within weeks, one of the English Wine producer's equipment is blown up and his vines ploughed over. The possibility that this is retaliation for a refusal to cooperate with a local mafia in Calabria leads to information about imports through Avonmouth. When an examination of a similar type of import leads to the discovery of $1m in cash, it becomes apparent that the claim about English Wine is purely a pretext for something much bigger, which leads to Rosemary being abducted and a shootout with MOSSAD agents on Avonmouth dock in the middle of the night. "Kisses sweeter than wine" is the twelfth book in a series of detective stores set in HM Customs & Excise, by Richard Hernaman Allen, a former Commissioner.

Book excerpt: 'We will overcome it [and] I hope in the years to come, everyone will be able to take pride in how they responded to this challenge, and those who come after us will say the Britons of this generation were as strong as any' Her Majesty The Queen The Coronavirus pandemic forced the great British people to dig to the very depths of their resolve.

Taking twelve qualities of the wartime generation, including fellowship, courage and integrity, and drawing on personal interviews with over two hundred Second World War veterans - from SAS officers to London firewomen to Dame Vera herself - Guidance from the Greatest shows us how we can improve our individual character and our collective approach to life. Guidance from the Greatest reminds us of all that is great about Britain and shows how we can build upon that greatness for the future.
