The Windsor Beauties:Ladies of the Court of Charles II
The Windsor Beauties:Ladies of the Court of Charles II
Lewis Melville
¥65.99
"The Duchess of York wished to have the portraits of the most beautiful women at Court," Anthony Hamilton wrote in the Memoirs of Count Grammont. "Lely painted them, and employed all his art in the execution. He could not have had more alluring sitters. Every portrait is a masterpiece." The original set of "Beauties" painted by Lely were, as we find from James II's catalogue, eleven in number, their names being Barbara, Duchess of Cleveland (ne'e Villiers); Frances, Duchess of Richmond and Lennox (ne'e Stuart); Mrs. Jane Myddleton (ne'e Needham); Elizabeth, Countess of Northumberland (ne'e Wriothesley); Elizabeth, Countess of Falmouth (ne'e Bagot); Elizabeth, Lady Denham (ne'e Brooke); Frances, Lady Whitmore (ne'e Brooke); Henrietta, Countess of Rochester (ne'e Boyle); Elizabeth, Countess de Grammont (ne'e Hamilton); and Madame d'Orleans. It will be seen that in this list of "Beauties" Anne Hyde, Duchess of York, does not figure; but since she was responsible for the collection, it would be peculiarly ungracious to omit her from a volume that treats of it. Also, she deserves inclusion for her supreme courage in selecting the sitters--for what must the ladies who were not chosen have said and thought of her? Nor in the series are Nell Gwyn, Louise de Ke'roualle, and the Duchess Mazarin; but no account of the social life of the Court of Charles II can possibly omit mention of them, and therefore something has been said about each of these ladies. The new Revised Edition restores Melville's masterpiece of the intricate relationships and day-by-day account of court life in the reign of Charles II of England. This edition also adds a new glossary, bibliography, and extended footnotes for the lay history reader. Also included are first-ever translations of French language poems, letters, and epitaphs completed by Coby Fletcher. More information at www.VictorianHeritage.com

The Little Mermaid
The Little Mermaid
Hans Christian Andersen
¥9.24
Far out in the ocean the water is as blue as the petals of the loveliest cornflower, and as clear as the purest glass. But it is very deep too. It goes down deeper than any anchor rope will go, and many, many steeples would have to be stacked one on top of another to reach from the bottom to the surface of the sea. It is down there that the sea folk live. Now don't suppose that there are only bare white sands at the bottom of the sea. No indeed! The most marvelous trees and flowers grow down there, with such pliant stalks and leaves that the least stir in the water makes them move about as though they were alive. All sorts of fish, large and small, dart among the branches, just as birds flit through the trees up here. From the deepest spot in the ocean rises the palace of the sea king. Its walls are made of coral and its high pointed windows of the clearest amber, but the roof is made of mussel shells that open and shut with the tide. This is a wonderful sight to see, for every shell holds glistening pearls, any one of which would be the pride of a queen's crown.

Culorile r?scolite ale oceanului, ce se arunc? furibund spre ??rm, nu cu puterea insuportabil? a unei M?ri, ci cu ?nmiita putere a Oceanului Suprem...; valuri translucide sau verzi, ca ?n Aivazovski, care ?i el trebuie s? fi sim?it Oceanul. Un schifist, siluet? neagr?, de-o grafie subtil?, ?nfrunt?nd coamele ?nspumate. Algele sofisticate de pe plaja cu pietri? foarte m?runt ?i viu colorat (?n locul tradi?ionalului nisip), st?ncile negre, vuietul autoritar al Oceanului, cel mai mare ?i puternic din lume. Extaz f?r? seam?n ?i f?r? cuvinte. Lidia c?nt?. Desc?tu?at?, leg?n?nd ?n m?n? o alg? supl?, coco?at? pe-o st?nc?, ?n cel mai v?dit gen romantic, ?n vreme ce ?iruri de valuri se n?pustesc spre ??rm, explod?nd, readun?ndu-se ?n evantaie de spum?. Ileana ?i Jerry se ?ndep?rteaz? c?teva zeci de pa?i, apoi revin, trec pe l?ng? mine, ?n timp ce filmez, vr?jit, hipnotizat. ?not?torul cu schif a ie?it din valuri, ?l percep cu coada ochiului, ??i adun? sc?ndura, ?ncepe s? urce treptele de lemn din buza falezei, cele pe care am cobor?t ?i noi, acum zece minute. Sau c?nd??i totu?i, ce mi se ?nt?mpl? de-am ame?it a?a? Mi?c infinitezimal aparatul, ?i tot ce intr? ?n cadru mi se pare de domeniul miraculosului. Nu vreau s? pierd nimic. Panoramez, trec de st?nci, spre cealalt? parte a plajei, unde se deschide un golfule? ?i unde coamele de valuri se r?stoarn? sacadat. La o mic? distan??, un ?ir de insuli?e negre, ca ni?te piloni lustrui?i, ?nfrunt?nd hula cea mare. Pelicani pe sus, trec?nd ?ntins spre nord. Extaz ?i sf??iere...

P?n? la biografia scris? de ?pek ?al??lar ?i v?ndut? ?n Turcia ?n peste o jum?tate de milion de exemplare, s-au ?tiut destul de pu?ine lucruri despre Latife Han?m, singura so?ie a generalul Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, ?ntemeietorul Republicii Turce care a r?mas ?n istorie ca unul dintre cei mai charismatici lideri politici din primele decenii ale secolului al XX-lea. ?ntr-o epoc? ?n care educarea femeilor era considerat? inutil? ?i chiar primejdioas?, Latife era o t?n?r? intelectual? care studiase dreptul la Sorbona, vorbea fluent opt limbi str?ine ?i era extrem de ?nzestrat? pentru arte, literatur? ?i muzic?. ?nc? dinainte de a se c?s?tori, a fost o militant? pasionat? pentru drepturile femeilor turce ?i visa ridicarea acestora la acela?i nivel de progres social ?i cultural ca al surorilor lor europene.
