A Life of Gilbert Burnet

A Life of Gilbert Burnet

T. E. S. Clarke; H. C. Foxcroft

Cambridge University Press
2015
pokkari
Originally published in 1907, this book contains a biography of the historian and clergyman Gilbert Burnet, Bishop of Salisbury. The book is divided into two parts, focussing first on Burnet's early life and career in Scotland and then on his rise and fall and rise again under the Stuart monarchs. The language used is accessible, and the authors express the hope that 'this picture of a varied career, and a vivacious personality, may attract the general reader, as well as the historical student'. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in the history of religion in England or the life of Burnet.

Letters to Gilbert White of Selborne

Letters to Gilbert White of Selborne

John Mulso

Cambridge University Press
2011
pokkari
These letters to Gilbert White (1720–93), the author of The Natural History and Antiquities of Selborne (1789; also reissued in this series) were published in 1907. They were written between 1744 and 1790 by John Mulso (1721–91); brother of the bluestocking Mrs Chapone, to White, whom he had met when both were undergraduates at Oxford. White's letters to Mulso were unfortunately destroyed, frustrating plans to publish a 'most interesting and amusing series of letters' between intimate friends, but the remaining half of the correspondence, 'containing almost the only contemporary illustration of Gilbert White's character and career', and then in the possession of the earl of Stamford, was edited by Rashleigh Holt-White, a great-great-nephew and enthusiast of his ancestor's life. These fascinating letters give insights into not only White's character but also the lives of the gentry of the period, and the intellectual milieu in which both men moved.

pokkari
"Only Idle Chatter" contains over 65 texts ranging from historical insights to production details, from personal reflections to high-spirited entertainments. They are reprinted substantially as they appeared in Gilbert & Sullivan Austin newsletters and programs from 2010 to 2020 and were designed to create interest in playgoers new to Gilbert & Sullivan as well as to engage seasoned Savoyards. President Emerita Libby Weed provides a foreword, and Ralph MacPhail, Jr., adds an introduction with acknowledgments, notes on the texts for which there was no room in their original, ephemeral publication, and an extensive list of references and suggestions for further reading. "Everyone will learn something new from the apparently ephemeral pieces in this book. They are full of insight and understanding and, above all, joy." --Andrew Crowther, author of "Gilbert of Gilbert & Sullivan" and "Contradiction Contradicted"; Secretary, The W. S. Gilbert Society "An enjoyable read, 'Only Idle Chatter' is an interesting and above all affectionate insight into the art of effectively, and with honesty, producing a Gilbert script. From practical backstage traffic control issues to the touchier matters of navigating outdated or obscure references, MacPhail lets us in on the research and thought required for understanding a Savoy opera, without getting bogged down in academic detail or minutiae." --Dr. Jeffrey Jones-Ragona, Music Director and Conductor, Gilbert & Sullivan Austin "Ralph MacPhail, Jr., combines deep knowledge about Gilbert and Sullivan and their works with an erudite yet accessible writing style. His descriptions and analyses enhance the enjoyment that G&S provides to even the casual Savoyard." --Diane Radin, President, Gilbert & Sullivan Austin "In 'Only Idle Chatter, ' Ralph MacPhail, Jr., brings unassuming expertise and a good-natured humor to his treatment of 10 Savoy operas and seven G&S-related rarities." --Gayden Wren, author of "A Most Ingenious Paradox: The Art of Gilbert & Sullivan"
