Ronald Reagan

David Mervin

Routledge
2017
sidottu
First published in 1990. American as well as British students will find much that is interesting and illuminating in this British view of the Reagan presidency. David Mervin writes as an experienced American politics specialist whose study includes first-hand observation in the United States. Putting aside policy substance and concentrating on effectiveness in using the political process, Mervin portrays Reagan's presidential record more favorably than may be common in the British community.

Ronald Johnson’s Modernist Collage Poetry

Ronald Johnson’s Modernist Collage Poetry

R. Hair

Palgrave Macmillan
2011
nidottu
Using a critical examination of the collage poetics of Ronald Johnson, this book sets out to understand Johnson's poetry in the context of the "New American" collage tradition, stretching from Ezra Pound to Louis Zukofsky and beyond. Additionally, the book assesses Johnson's work in relation to wider questions concerning literary chronologies, especially the discontinuities commonly seen to exist between nineteenth-century Romantic and twentieth-century modernist literary forms.

Ronald Knox’s Lectures on Virgil’s Aeneid

Ronald Knox’s Lectures on Virgil’s Aeneid

BLOOMSBURY PUBLISHING PLC
2023
sidottu
This book makes available Ronald Knox’s hitherto unpublished lectures on Virgil’s Aeneid delivered at Trinity College, Oxford, as part of a lecture course on Virgil in 1912. Written with Knox’s customary incisiveness and with frequent allusions to contemporary life, the lectures are devoted to the appreciation of the Aeneid and focus on what he called the ‘essential and dominant characteristics’ that make up its greatness. They deal with Virgil’s political and religious outlook, ideas of the afterlife, sense of romance and pathos, narrative style, sources, versification and appreciation of scenery. His interpretation of the relationship between Dido and Aeneas renders redundant the question, much debated to this day, of whether Aeneas loved Dido, and also portrays Aeneas more sympathetically than is currently fashionable. The additional introductory and critical essays by the contributors place the lectures in their historical and scholarly context, bring out their enduring relevance and illustrate how Ronald Knox’s distinctive approach might be still developed to advantage. As Robert Speaight noted in his presidential address to the Virgil Society in 1958, ‘many of us who love our Virgil will now understand him better because Ronald Knox loved and understood him so well’.

Rich Wheeler

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2013
nidottu
Ronald Roundworm loves words; all types of words; words of all lengths, sounds, shapes, and sizes. Ronald is fascinated with a myriad of English language subjects, including etymology, semantics, slang, dialect, colloquial phrases, oxymorons, puns, pleonasms, palindromes, paraprosdokians, similes, metaphors, clich s, word derivations, and words with multiple meanings. He is obsessed and can not understand why everyone does not share his obsession. In "Ronald Roundworm Is Incompoberate" (pronounced in-come-pob-er-et), the reader will enter into Ronald's world and you will enjoy the English language along with Ronald. The fun really begins when Ronald invents "incompoberate" and the word goes viral. People everywhere are using the word, a song is written about the word, and politicians use the word in their debates. The quest begins to discover who invented the word.
