Kings and Queens - A Very Peculiar History
Kings and Queens - A Very Peculiar History
Mason, Antony
¥58.76
Which king's guards massacred a group of his supporters by mistake? Who had an oversized tongue and had to slobber when they ate food? Who was so large when they died that they had to be buried in a square coffin? Who survived seven assassination attempts? As you can tell from the bizarre questions above, it wasn't all thrones and sceptres for British kings and queens. Some of them were completely batty, and others were downright vicious. On the other hand, some monarchs were an icon to the people and represented the power and importance of Britain and England. 'Kings & Queens, A Very Peculiar History' explores some of the most marvellous monarchs to have ruled Britain and ekes out their bizarre habits and idiosyncracies, featuring quirky stories and fascinating facts and lists.

Pipe, Jim

The Tudors were an odd bunch, even weirder than their subjects, perhaps. When they weren't beheading wives and enemies they were threatening to, or going around earning themselves nicknames like 'Bloody Mary' and 'The 9 Day Queen'. 'The Tudors: A Very Peculiar History; tells the story of the Tudor monarchs, their castles, their lives and their subjects in a time when it was fashionable to slash up your clothes for that 'fresh from battle' look. The book details each monarch's reign and casts light on the more bizarre elements of their time in power, right down to an analysis of their seals and signatures and the various torture and execution methods they liked to use.

The girl had been an orphan from childhood, and Rowland Trowbridge had been almost as a father to her. Avice loved him and watched over him as a daughter; at least, that had been the case until lately. A few weeks since, Mr. Trowbridge had succumbed to the rather florid charms of Mrs. Black, his housekeeper, and told Avice he would marry her in a month. Though greatly surprised and not greatly pleased, Avice had accepted the situation and treated the housekeeper with the same pleasant courtesy she had always shown her. The two “got along” as the phrase is, though their natures were not in many ways congenial. Avice remained at the window till she saw at last Leslie Hoyt’s tall form approaching. She ran to open the door herself. “Oh, Judge Hoyt,” she cried, “Uncle hasn’t come yet! There must be something wrong! What can we do” THE MARK OF CAINBY CAROLYN WELLS AUTHOR OF “A CHAIN OF EVIDENCE,” “THE GOLD BAG,” “THE WHITE ALLEY,” ETC.WITH A FRONTISPIECE IN COLOR BY GAYLE HOSKINS

Hasas hófelh?kkel terhes ólomszürke ég borul a vidéki kisvárosra. Tóth János tanító családjában disznóvágás lesz, s míg a toros vacsorára készülnek, váratlan események zúzzák szét a hétk?znapok nyugalmát, évtizedek óta felszín alatt lappangó ellentéteket robbantva ki. Két nap leforgása alatt két család élete fordul f?l fenekestül. Két családé, amelyek mindenben kül?nb?znek egymástól, s amelyek sorsát mégis eltéphetetlenül egybefonja a huszadik század t?rténelme. A szegénysorból származó Tóth Jánost ?zvegy édesanyja hihetetlen áldozatok árán taníttatta. Tóth mégis elhagyja ?t és két testvérét, mert belebolondul a valaha jómódú f?ldbirtokos Kémeryék ifjabbik lányába, Paulába. ?t n?vérével és ?ccsével a fukar, szigorú nagymama neveli, akit?l a gyerekek t?bb verést kapnak, mint szeretetet vagy ételt. Nem csoda hát, hogy miután a g?g?s Paula hozzákényszerül ?ccse házitanítójához, Tóth Jánoshoz, a férfinak szüntelen megvetés és megaláztatás jut osztályrészül. Vajon meddig tartható fenn egy kapcsolat, amely az egyik félnek mindent, a másiknak semmit sem jelent? A?Disznótor?az eltemetett titkok regénye: egyszerre s?tét tónusú b?nügyi t?rténet és megrázó, g?r?g sorstragédia. Régi, fájdalmas emlékeket ébresztett bennem a?Disznótor?elolvasása. Hiszen a vallásos, puritán Hajdúság, ahol a regény játszódik, egyben saját gyerekkorom színhelye is, annak minden szépségével és drámájával. Ahogy Szabó Magda is fogalmaz, a k?nyv ?üzenet (…) abból a hajdani világból emebbe”. A nagyszüleim múltba vesz? világából, amelyben nem volt virtualitás, az emberek ?igazi” életet éltek, cselekedeteiknek súlyuk és k?vetkezményük volt, a becsületnek pedig nem volt alternatívája.?– Sándor Anikó

Cosmos I Go search the ?ons an you willWhere withered leaves of Doubt are whirled,And who hath solved this riddle, Life,Or Death - that moves with sails unfurled,Beyond the straining eyes of manMarooned upon an unknown world. II Nor tongue hath told, nor vision caughtThat paradox. Primeval Cause;Each age has had some parableEach age succeeding marked the flaws;While shifted, with the calendar,What men have termed generic laws. III Creed after creed behold them nowLike Etna on Vesuvius piled;Till, scaled to earth by drifting sandsThey lie in later days reviled,And pushed aside by Time's rough handAs toys are, by a peevish child.

A ?Védtelen város” elnevezés? irodalmi és fotópályázatot 2015 szeptemberében indította útjára az Underground Kiadó szerkeszt?sége. A beérkezett m?vekb?l állt ?ssze ez a válogatás. Kett?s célunk volt. Egyrészt terepet adni szépíróknak és fotósoknak, hogy végzettségt?l, kortól, minden címkét?l függetlenül, csupán a m?vészetcsinálás ?r?méért alkothassanak. Másrészt olyan tematikát akartunk k?rbejárni, amely sokaknak sokfélét jelent. ?gy teremtettünk meg egy városi kaleidoszkópot, egy életb?l merített, mégis fiktív teret, amely folyamatosan változik – a szemlél?t?l függ?en. /a szerkeszt?: Sós Dóra/

Ride in the night How broken’s today the Moon, And how dismal and mute is this night, Today I am how sad and not blithe, How broken’s today the Moon. All the Wholes are broken now, And all the flames flare up in small parts, And all the loves are broken in hearts, All the Wholes are broken now. Bad cart is running with me, As if a cry of pain would there sound, Profound’s the still and partly din’s round, Bad cart is running with me.

Opera lui N. Steinhardt are ?capacitatea“ de a descuraja tentativele de sistematizare ?i analiz? critic?. Apar?in?nd unui intelectual evreu erudit, spirit febril, avid de limpezire ?i afirmare, aceasta se ramifica at?t ?n planul literaturii, c?t ?i ?n cel al teologiei, al ideologiilor politice sau al dreptului constitu?ional. ?n perioada interbelic?, cea a formarii intelectual-spirituale, N. Steinhardt publica, ?n doar ca?iva ani, o lucrare de drept constitu?ional, dou? studii despre iudaism, un volum de parodii ?i peste o suta de studii literare ?i articole de ideologie liberal-conservatoare. ?n perioada postbelic?, ?ncepand cu finalul anilor '60, el scrie memorialistic? ?i microromane, traduce, re?ncepe o activitate publicistic? sus?inut?, care va dura p?n? ?n 1989, ?i scrie predici ?i eseuri teologice erudite. Volumele de eseuri critice din anii '70 ?i '80 ale lui N. Steinhardt, singurele apari?ii editoriale din perioada comunist?, s-au bucurat de o receptare pozitiv?, ?ns? pozi?ia contestatara a scriitorului fa?? de regim a condus la marginalizarea sa. Abia odat? cu apari?ia postum? a Jurnalului fericirii (1991), a Cuvintelor de credin?? (1992) ?i a Primejdiei m?rturisirii (1993) au fost recunoscute de c?tre publicul larg valoarea intelectual? ?i morala a scriitorului N.

Este perfect con?tient? c? rolul reporterului, dincolo de a descoperi oameni cu vie?i ?i personalit??i interesante, nu este s? se pun? ?n valoare pe sine cu ?ntreb?ri ?inteligente“ p?n? la narcisism sau incisive p?n? la obr?znicie, dimpotriv?, ci s? se apropie de partenerul de discu?ie cu discre?ie, ?ncerc?nd s? scoat? din mintea ?i sufletul s?u tot ceea ce este mai semnificativ ?i mai interesant. Pentru c? oamenilor care au fost ?sorti?i s? vad?“ nu le prea place s? vorbeasc? despre ei ?n?i?i.
