Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adelaide Victoria Arnold was a popular English novelist who between 1911 and 1928 published 10 works of supernatural fiction. Of these 10 works, 3 were set in the English Lake counties and touched upon a wide spectrum of challenging subjects - human trafficking of black slaves; the Liverpool-West Indies Slave Trade; shell-shock; gender imbalance in the aftermath of the First World War; a woman's all-consuming posthumous love for a soldier who died during the Battle of Somme in France that she is fated to take her own life in tragic circumstances; the sacred doctrine of karma. The book provides a short abridgement of the three novels set in the English Lake District. Insightful information of a biographical, historical and geographical nature are included within the narrative which is supported by 49 photographs and images.
Download or read book Woodrow Wilson written by John Coppack and published by Follifoot Publishing Limited. This book was released on 2023-04-20 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Woodrow Wilson's presidency coincided with the Great War (the greatest catastrophic event to descend on Europe since the Black Death) and the Paris Peace Conference of 1919. Both these seminal events had far reaching consequences that still haunt our world today. The First World War elevated Wilson to a world statesman who reshaped the world map following the defeat of the Central Powers in 1918. Wilson's call to Congress in the Spring of 1917 to declare war against Germany ultimately changed the course of the war - a war which Great Britain and France and their allies could well have lost. By inheritance Wilson was from Scottish and Irish stock. His mother was born in Carlisle in north-west England. Before he became the 28th president of the United States, Wilson spent five summers in Britain, mainly the Lake District which he regarded as his second home. Wilson was a profoundly emotional man, an incurable romantic, an idealist. Reading William Wordsworth's The Farewell would bring tears to his eyes. Wilson was married twice and had three daughters by his first wife. He also had a long-standing extramarital infatuation with a married woman which brought him close to political disaster. The book places a spotlight on the above aspects of Woodrow Wilson's life.
Download or read book Black Tom written by and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2002-04-23 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Professor Terence CopleyÆs new biography of Thomas Arnold combines a study of his life with an examination of ArnoldÆs influence as an educator, a theologian and a churchman. Arnold was only a Victorian for five years (he died in 1842) but he has been remembered as a major figure of the age, not least because Lytton Strachey chose him as one of his objects of ridicule and pillory in Eminent Victorians (1918).He stands as a monument to the development of the 19th-century public school system whose influence spread far beyond BritainÆs upper-class. Arnold was the celebrated headmaster of Rugby School and HughesÆs Tom BrownÆs Schooldays (1857) fixed him in the public imagination.Copley assesses both the uncritical Victorian versions of ArnoldÆs life--including Hughes and Dean StanleyÆs original Life--and the sneering assessment of his influence, perpetuated by Strachey, to provide the first rounded portrait of Arnold. In conclusion Copley explores the possible legacy that this great but neglected figure has left to our age.

Book Synopsis A Victorian Wanderer by : Bernard Bergonzi
Download or read book A Victorian Wanderer written by Bernard Bergonzi and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A biography of Matthew Arnold's Catholic younger brother Tom, a scholar, teacher, and self-styled 'wanderer'. Arnold's path in life took him, after a brilliant start at Oxford, to colonial New Zealand, to Tasmania, to Dublin, back to Oxford, and once more to Dublin, where he died in 1900. Hisspiritual wanderings led him into the Catholic Church, then out of it for some years, and finally back to it. He was close both to Matthew and to John Henry Newman, and his relations with them show unfamiliar aspects of these eminent Victorians. As a young man, Tom Arnold knew the elderlyWordsworth, and Arthur Hugh Clough was his closest friend. He was acquainted with such celebrated Oxford personalities as Benjamin Jowett, Mark Pattison, and Lewis Carroll; as a Professor of English in Dublin he was a colleague of Gerard Manley Hopkins; and in the last year of his life he read andapproved of an undergraduate essay by James Joyce.The book makes an original contribution to Victorian studies at the same time as telling an absorbing human story. An appendix contains a previously unpublished letter from Matthew Arnold to his brother.

Book Synopsis Pictures of Time Beneath by : Kirsty Douglas
Download or read book Pictures of Time Beneath written by Kirsty Douglas and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2010-04-27 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pictures of Time Beneath examines three celebrated heritage landscapes: Adelaide’s Hallett Cove, Lake Callabonna in the far north of South Australia, and the World Heritage listed Willandra Lakes Region of New South Wales. It offers philosophical insights into significant issues of heritage management, our relationship with Australian landscapes, and an original perspective on our understanding of place, time, nation and science. Glaciers in Adelaide, cow-sized wombats, monster kangaroos, desert dunes littered with freshwater mussels, ancient oases and inland seas: a diverse group of deep-time imaginings is the subject of this ground-breaking book. Ideas about a deep past in Australia are central to broader issues of identity, belonging, uniqueness, legitimacy and intellectual community. This journey through Australia’s natural histories examines the way landscapes and landforms are interpreted to realise certain visions of the land, the nation and the past in the context of contemporary notions of geological heritage, cultural property, cultural identity and antiquity.

Book Synopsis The Cambridge Introduction to William Wordsworth by : Emma Mason
Download or read book The Cambridge Introduction to William Wordsworth written by Emma Mason and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-08-19 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Wordsworth is the most influential of the Romantic poets, and remains widely popular, even though his work is more complex and more engaged with the political, social and religious upheavals of his time than his reputation as a 'nature poet' might suggest. Outlining a series of contexts - biographical, historical and literary - as well as critical approaches to Wordsworth, this Introduction offers students ways to understand and enjoy Wordsworth's poetry and his role in the development of Romanticism in Britain. Emma Mason offers a completely up-to-date summary of criticism on Wordsworth from the Romantics to the present and an annotated guide to further reading. With definitions of technical terms and close readings of individual poems, Wordsworth's experiments with form are fully explained. This concise book is the ideal starting point for studying Lyrical Ballads, The Prelude, and the major poems as well as Wordsworth's lesser known writings.
