Sir Ernest Satow's Private Letters to W.G. Aston and F.V. Dickins: the Correspondence of a Pioneer Japanologist from 1870 to 1918
The distinguished British scholar-diplomat Ernest Mason Satow (1843-1929) was one of the most prominent and pre-eminent Japanologists in the Victorian era when the subject was newly created as Japan began to open its doors to foreigners from the mid-1850s. He shared this honour with Basil Hall Chamberlain (1850-1935) and the two addressees of the letters reproduced here by permission of the U.K. National Archives: co-worker William George Aston (1841-1911) and Frederick Victor Dickins (1838-1915). This book is part of a series in which Ian Ruxton is making some of the extensive Satow Papers publicly available for the first time. It includes an introduction by Professor Peter Kornicki of the East Asia Institute at the University of Cambridge, eight black & white illustrations, 166 annotations, two appendices, a select bibliography and a full index for ease of reference. (xvi + 330 pp.) Reasonably priced for students and researchers. Library of Congress Control Number: 2008901176

Based on the memoirs of my great-grandfather and the recollections of his son, this book gives a first-hand account of the life of a British dentist and his family in late 19th century Paris, with its excitement and political upheaval. James Heesom was an assistant to the famous American dentist, Thomas Wiltberger Evans, the first American to be awarded the Legion d'Honneur, whose patients included most of the crowned heads of Europe. Accompanying his employer, James visited the Tuileries to fit a plate for Napoleon III, also travelling to Russia to attend to the teeth of the Tsar. When Thomas Evans's practice split, James moved to the surgery of John d'Oyley-Evans. A would-be French aristocrat with a title that he had bought from the Pope, John travelled around Paris in a nobleman's carriage, together with two footmen in full livery.During the time that he worked for the Evans family, James met many people, from the latest mistress of the Emperor Napoleon III to politicians, aristocrats and the American nouveau riche, the least favourite of his patients. Outside his working life, he mentions his early years in Paris, when he visited student restaurants and dance-halls and appeared on stage in a walk-on role in a Paris opera. He was also a witness to the war-fever that seized Paris in 1870 and the aftermath of the siege. The recollections of James's son, Edwin are of a domestic nature, for example, he recalls his father's unsuccessful attempt to teach a patissier how to make hot cross buns. He also remembers some of the apartments they lived in, such as a house in rue Billault with the ateliers of several French and American artists.

From a distance, Ernie's life seems perfect-he's a star college baseball player adored by the student body and coveted by professional teams. Up close, he is a disaster. Since the death of his mother, he's been trapped by a promise he made and forced to live her dream instead of his own. He reaches his breaking point in the biggest game of his young career and sets off a chain of events that will either define or destroy the rest of his life. Ernie grudgingly joins a quirky campus counseling group that empowers him to heal himself and right his wrongs. By testing old friendships, forging unlikely new ones, and exploring an exciting romance, he begins to unravel the jumbled knot his tangled inner-psyche has become. But old rivals, mental illness, and the risk of a forbidden relationship soon threaten his progress. Will Ernie's new direction and friends be his salvation, or confirmation that he is forever doomed by his imperfections? Perfectly Ernest is a New Adult contemporary novel with romantic elements by author E.J. Wesley. Ernest offers a smart, funny, sweet, sexy, uplifting, and oftentimes poignant perspective of one person's difficult transition into adulthood. It is a story about overcoming the demons of mental illness and struggling with the profound burden of expectations-both real and imagined. But it's mostly a tale of friendship, hope, and love.

The Plays of William Ernest Henley and Robert Louis Stevenson

The Plays of William Ernest Henley and Robert Louis Stevenson

Robert Louis Balfour Stevenson (13 November 1850 - 3 December 1894) was a Scottish novelist, poet, essayist, and travel writer. His most famous works are Treasure Island, Kidnapped, Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, and A Child's Garden of Verses. A literary celebrity during his lifetime, Stevenson now ranks as the 26th most translated author in the world. His works have been admired by many other writers, including Jorge Luis Borges, Bertolt Brecht, Marcel Proust, Arthur Conan Doyle, Henry James, Cesare Pavese, Emilio Salgari, Ernest Hemingway, Rudyard Kipling, Jack London, Vladimir Nabokov, J. M. Barrie, and G. K. Chesterton, who said of him that he "seemed to pick the right word up on the point of his pen, like a man playing spillikins." William Ernest Henley (23 August 1849 - 11 July 1903) was an influential poet, critic and editor of the late-Victorian era in England who is spoken of as having as central a role in his time as Samuel Johnson had in the eighteenth century. He is remembered most often for his 1875 poem "Invictus," a piece which recurs in popular awareness (e.g., see the 2009 Clint Eastwood film, Invictus). It is one of his hospital poems from early battles with tuberculosis and is said to have developed the artistic motif of poet as a patient, and to have anticipated modern poetry in form and subject matter. As an editor of a series of literary magazines and journals-with right to choose contributors, and to offer his own essays, criticism, and poetic works-Henley, like Johnson, is said to have had significant influence on culture and literary perspectives in the late-Victorian period. Odin's Library Classics is dedicated to bringing the world the best of humankind's literature from throughout the ages. Carefully selected, each work is unabridged from classic works of fiction, nonfiction, poetry, or drama.
