Dying for a Headline: Meredith Abbott's Adventures in England

Dying for a Headline: Meredith Abbott's Adventures in England

Debbie Devlin Lynch; Mary Devlin Lynch

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2015
nidottu
There was a time when the entire livelihood of Almsmorton Village depended on Almsmorton Manor and the family that lived there. But jobs declined over the years as farmland was leased to others, horses were sold off, and most of the house closed up. Finally, the current Lord and Lady Almsmorton moved to London. Their son, Timothy Treymour, is determined to restore the manor house to its former glory and provide jobs for the villagers again. Meredith Abbott has taken a giant leap of faith in packing her bags and moving to England with Timothy but there is other baggage she cannot leave behind--the emotional scars of her divorce from movie star, Antonio DeLeon. Meredith wants to be happy with her new life in the idyllic English countryside. All is well--except for Meredith's nagging certainty that Tonio will come to Almsmorton and ruin everything. Back in L.A., Antonio is not happy, with his career on the decline and his new marriage a farce. What's really fueling his anger is knowing that HIS Meredith is in England with Timothy.Does Meredith really think he'll ever let her be happy without him?

Life in Shakespeare's England: A Book of Elizabethan Prose

Life in Shakespeare's England: A Book of Elizabethan Prose

J. D. Wilson

Cosimo Classics
2008
nidottu
British Shakespearean scholar JOHN DOVER WILSON (1881-1969) is best remembered for his explications of the Bard, particularly his acclaimed 1935 work What Happens in Hamlet. Here, however, he takes a rather more oblique approach to enlightening us to the world of Shakespeare, gathering together in this 1913 volume writings by contemporaries of the playwright's-some famous, some not-that illuminate the artistic society and ordinary life of Elizabethan England. Discover what the firsthand observers of the day thought about: - English snobbery - country sports - festivals and revelry - superstition, ghosts, and astrology - parenting and children - impressions of London - the plague - playhouses and bear-gardens - the actor and his craft - house and home - rogues and vagabonds - and much, much more

George Whitefield's Ministry in New England, 1740-1770

George Whitefield's Ministry in New England, 1740-1770

Kenneth Lawson

Ambassador International
2024
sidottu
George Whitefield made five successful itinerant preaching tours throughout colonial New England, during which he was both appreciated and unwelcomed. Whitefield shook colonial New England, as a blessing to some and as a curse to others. George Whitefield's Ministry, written by Kenneth Lawson, is a travelogue of Whitefield's incessant activities to the Puritan and post-Puritan communities. Much of the eyewitness material in this book has never been collected in one place. By digging deeply into the daily life and travels of Whitefield-through his journals, his correspondence, and hundreds of previously uncollected eyewitness accounts-we discover Whitefield as a man steadfast in his faith and life, regardless of the waves of opposition he faced in New England. His fidelity to the Gospel and his support of revival are an inspiration to contemporary Christianity.

Illyria in Shakespeare’s England

Illyria in Shakespeare’s England

Lea Puljcan Juric

Fairleigh Dickinson University Press
2019
sidottu
Illyria in Shakespeare’s England is the first extended study of the eastern Adriatic region, often referred to in the Renaissance by its Graeco-Roman name “Illyria,” in early modern English writing and political thought. At first glance the absence of earlier studies may not be surprising: that area may seem significant only to critics pursuing certain specialized questions about Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night, which is set in Illyria. But in fact, it is not only often misrepresented in the discussions of that play but also typically ignored in the critical conversation on English prose romances, poems, and other plays that feature Illyria or its peoples, some rarely read, others well-known, including Shakespeare’s Comedy of Errors, 2 Henry VI, Measure for Measure, and Cymbeline. Lea Puljcan Juric explores the reasons for such views by engaging with larger questions of interest to many critics who focus on subjects other than geographic regions, such as “othering,” religion, race, and the development of national identity, among other issues. She also broadens the conversation on these familiar problems in the field to include the impact of post-Renaissance notions of the Balkans on the erasure of Illyria from Shakespeare studies. Puljcan Juric studies the encounters of the English with the ancient and early modern Illyrians through their Greek and Roman heritage; geographies, histories, and travelogues, written in a variety of European polities including Illyria itself; religious conflict after the Reformation and the threat of Islam; and international politics and commerce. These considerations show how Illyria’s geopolitical position among the Ottoman Empire, Habsburg Empire and Venice, its “national” struggles as well as its cultural heterogeneity figured in English interests in the eastern Mediterranean, and informed English ideas about ethnicity, nationhood, and religion. In Shakespeare studies, however, critics have consistently cast Twelfth Night’s Illyria as a utopia, an enigma, or a substitute for England, Italy, or Greece. Arguing that twentieth-century politics and negative conceptions of the eastern Adriatic as part of “the Balkans” have underwritten this erasure of Illyria from our perspective on the field, Puljcan Juric shows how entrenched cultural hierarchies tied to elitism and colonial politics still inform our analyses of literature. She invites scholars to recognize that, for Shakespeare and his contemporaries, Illyria is the site of important socio-political and cultural struggles during the period, some shared with neighboring areas, others geographically specific, that invite dynamic historical and literary scrutiny.
