Hi archiepiscopal city of Mechlin pre sents little remarkable, but still retains a cleanly and venerable appearance. Here the postilion alighting soon after setting off, in order to arrange the traces, the first fire of four, beautiful bay horses which I was obliged to take, my baggage being very heavy, set them off at full speed, and I was preparing to jump out, when a journeyman baker rushed from his shop, and with great courage, at the imminent hazard of his life, seized the head of the foremost horse. I had borrowed an honest heavy Flemish servant, to serve as my interpreter in Holland, and to look to the baggage, which was valuable and contained the the literary collection of tbree years; he at the fame time kept the cash, as he knew the currency of the countries. I defired him to reward the bold baker most liberally, and expected that he would have given him a louis d'or. Upon inquiry, however his liberality amounted to two scaling, or about fourteen-pence. "Was that liberal?" "Yes, Sir, very liberal; and the great crowd that assembled, said that he was very well paid, and that one scalin was sufficient; but you are an Englishman and do not know the value of money in this country." "You rogue, do you value my life at two scalins?" The honest Fleming, burst into laughter at this question; but 1 never knew till then the real and current value of the life of an author.' We soon arrived at the large and venerable city of Antwerp, which still retains ineffaceable marks of ancient splendour, and a population, as a Flemish author ex presses it, of fifty thousand fouls bestdes Jews, Jews. Many of the streets are noble, and the houses formerly belonging to the chief merchants magnificent. The floor of the cathedral has...
Book Synopsis Parisians: An Adventure History of Paris by : Graham Robb
Download or read book Parisians: An Adventure History of Paris written by Graham Robb and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2011-04-11 with total page 507 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times bestseller: the secrets of the City of Light, revealed in the lives of the great, the near-great, and the forgotten—by the author of the acclaimed The Discovery of France. This is the Paris you never knew. From the Revolution to the present, Graham Robb has distilled a series of astonishing true narratives, all stranger than fiction, of the lives of the great, the near-great, and the forgotten. A young artillery lieutenant, strolling through the Palais-Royal, observes disapprovingly the courtesans plying their trade. A particular woman catches his eye; nature takes its course. Later that night Napoleon Bonaparte writes a meticulous account of his first sexual encounter. A well-dressed woman, fleeing the Louvre, takes a wrong turn and loses her way in the nameless streets of the Left Bank. For want of a map—there were no reliable ones at the time—Marie-Antoinette will go to the guillotine. Baudelaire, the photographer Marville, Baron Haussmann, the real-life Mimi of La Boheme, Proust, Adolf Hitler touring the occupied capital in the company of his generals, Charles de Gaulle (who is suspected of having faked an assassination attempt in Notre Dame)—these and many more are Robb’s cast of characters, and the settings range from the quarries and catacombs beneath the streets to the grand monuments to the appalling suburbs ringing the city today. The result is a resonant, intimate history with the power of a great novel.
Book Synopsis Enlightenment Geography by : R. Mayhew
Download or read book Enlightenment Geography written by R. Mayhew and published by Springer. This book was released on 2000-08-30 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enlightenment Geography is the first detailed study of the politics of British geography books and of related forms of geographical knowledge in the period from 1650 to 1850. The definition and role of geography in a humanist structure of knowledge are examined and shown to tie it to political discourse. Geographical works are shown to have developed Whig and Tory defences of the English church and state, consonant with the conservatism of the English Enlightenment. These politicizations were questioned by those indebted to the Scottish Enlightenment. Enlightenment Geography questions broad assumptions about British intellectual history through a revisionist history of geography.
Book Synopsis A Tale of Two Cities by : Charles Dickens
Download or read book A Tale of Two Cities written by Charles Dickens and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2008-10-07 with total page 605 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever known' After finishing A Tale of Two Cities, Dickens said 'it has greatly moved and excited me in the doing'. One of his most haunting novels, it has, since its first serial publication in 1859, continued to exert a grip on the popular imagination. Set during the French revolution in a lethal, vengeful Paris and a leafy, tranquil London, the two cities of the title are only a part of the novel's stark dichotomies, which are continued as Sydney Carton and Charles Darnay - their lives touched by the same woman - are drawn against their will to the vengeful, bloodstained streets of Paris only to fall under the lethal shadow of La Guillotine. Enriched eBook Features Editor Kristie Allen provides the following specially commissioned features for this Enriched eBook Classic: * Filmography for Dickens’s A Tale of Two Cities * Filmography for Dickens’s Novels * Early Reception of A Tale of Two Cities * Suggested Further Reading * What is “Dickensian”? * Psychology in A Tale of Two Cities * Dickens and Melodrama * Dickens and Alcohol * The Gothic in A Tale of Two Cities * Dickens and Prisons * Dickens and Servants * Dickens Sites to Visit in England * Illustrations of Eighteenth-Century Fashion and Culture and Dickens’s Victorian World The enriched eBook format invites readers to go beyond the pages of these beloved works and gain more insight into the life and times of an author and the period in which the book was originally written for a rich reading experience.
Book Synopsis Scotland's Pariah by : Patrick O'Flaherty
Download or read book Scotland's Pariah written by Patrick O'Flaherty and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2015-01-15 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scotland’s Pariah is the first book to examine the remarkable life of John Pinkerton: antiquarian, poet, forger, cartographer, historian, serial adulterer, bigamist, and religious skeptic. A pugnacious and persistent man of letters who knew and was admired by literary masters such as Edward Gibbon, Horace Walpole, and William Godwin, Pinkerton’s life was full of personal and professional misadventures. Patrick O’Flaherty’s biography presents an engrossing account of Pinkerton’s life and works from his early years in Scotland to his Parisian exile, covering his major editorial, antiquarian, and geographic works. Examining Pinkerton’s involvement in the London literary scene, his conflicted relationship with the rise of Celtic nationalism, and his response to early literary romanticism, Scotland’s Pariah is a shrewd and compassionate evaluation of an astonishing literary life.
