Download or read book Quaint Honour written by Roger Gellert and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-10-29 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quaint Honour, a play about relationships between boys at a boarding school, was first staged in 1958 when homosexuality was still illegal. This publication marks it's revival at the Finborough Theatre in 2017. A boy's boarding school in the late 1950s. Homosexuality in the UK is illegal, but behind closed doors and behind the back of the Headmaster, gay sexual activity between the students is rife. When one of the pupils accepts a challenge to seduce a younger student, he sets in motion a dangerous game of manipulation and corruption, causing devastating consequences that neither student could ever have imagined... Presented for the first time since its world premiere in 1958 and celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of the Sexual Offences Act of 1967 which decriminalised homosexuality in the UK, Quaint Honour examines the effects of sexual oppression at a time when the lives of young queer people were challenged by both the law and the education system. "...a thoroughly well-built play, traditionally structured, flooded with eloquence, and bearing a raft of knotty ethical questions." (The Stage)

Book Synopsis Quaint and Historic Forts of North America by : John Martin Hammond
Download or read book Quaint and Historic Forts of North America written by John Martin Hammond and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2019-12-18 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Quaint and Historic Forts of North America" is a historical novel looking at the origins of various forts built in the United States. The forts are a reminder of the military acumen of the inhabitants, spanning across several centuries. Many of them are the works of the diverse Europeans who migrated to the American colonies, bringing with them their architectural influences. As the author explains, "We behold the Indian in possession though we do not know who was his predecessor in holding the land... There come the Spanish with their relentless persecutions of the natives. There come the English, French, Dutch, and Swedish. And the claims of each clash, to at length give way—despite the military acumen of the French—to the steady, home-building genius of the English."
Download or read book Quaint, Exquisite written by Grace Lavery and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-08-10 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How Japan captured the Victorian imagination and transformed Western aesthetics From the opening of trade with Britain in the 1850s, Japan occupied a unique and contradictory place in the Victorian imagination, regarded as both a rival empire and a cradle of exquisite beauty. Quaint, Exquisite explores the enduring impact of this dramatic encounter, showing how the rise of Japan led to a major transformation of Western aesthetics at the dawn of globalization. Drawing on philosophy, psychoanalysis, queer theory, textual criticism, and a wealth of in-depth archival research, Grace Lavery provides a radical new genealogy of aesthetic experience in modernity. She argues that the global popularity of Japanese art in the late nineteenth century reflected an imagined universal standard of taste that Kant described as the “subjective universal” condition of aesthetic judgment. The book features illuminating cultural histories of Gilbert and Sullivan’s Mikado, English derivations of the haiku, and retellings of the Madame Butterfly story, and sheds critical light on lesser-known figures such as Winnifred Eaton, an Anglo-Chinese novelist who wrote under the Japanese pseudonym Onoto Watanna, and Mikimoto Ryuzo, a Japanese enthusiast of the Victorian art critic John Ruskin. Lavery also explains the importance and symbolic power of such material objects as W. B. Yeats’s prized katana sword and the “Japanese vellum” luxury editions of Oscar Wilde. Quaint, Exquisite provides essential insights into the modern understanding of beauty as a vehicle for both intimacy and violence, and the lasting influence of Japanese forms today on writers and artists such as Quentin Tarantino.

Book excerpt: The idea for this book came to me while engaging in my hobby of writing. I had written a number of short stories and anecdotes related to lifestyle in New York City. One day it dawned on me that many could benefit from reading a book that captures a holistic view of migration from different countries to the United States. Let us look at New York City to be precise. Such a city known for its diversity in ethnicity and culture would probably be the best choice for relocating. It is said to be a melting pot of cultures defined through various activities, museums, stores and restaurants, where you could meet up with people of various countries, experience unique cuisine and products from all over the world, listen to international music and even watch foreign films. It is no surprise that New York City is home to and the headquarters of one of the world's most significant international organization: The United Nations. It could be said that the city is in itself a live united nation.
