"Holmes could be rude, impatient, abrupt, and his intolerance of fools was legendary. I tried to show all this, all of the man's incredible brilliance. But there are some cracks in Holmes's marble, as in an almost-perfect Rodin statue. And I tried to show that, too. It's difficult for me to say what I may have given to the image of Holmes. Faithful to Conan Doyle's text, certainly. Also, I've tried to bring out the emotion that is there in Holmes. On the surface he seems a cold, sometimes dark, rather off-putting figure. But deeper down, I think, he's a man of feeling." JeremyJeremy Brett is still recognised as the most celebrated incarnation of Sherlock Holmes which he presented for ten years. Jeremy delighted viewers with his dashing, arrogant, moody interpretation of the most popular famous detective he brought a brooding intensity to his finest role - one of disturbing power. He is still called the definitive Sherlock Holmes. Important Note: This book is an extract from the 468 page biography, 'Jeremy Brett - Playing a Part' - this book contains the Sherlock Holmes section only. If you already have the full book then there is minimal additional content here. We wanted, however, to make a Sherlock Holmes specific version available.
Francis Brett Young (1884-1954) was one of the most prolific and successful authors of his era. His thirty novels and four collections of stories were published in more than two hundred editions and eleven languages, and were adapted for film and radio. At his peak Brett Young's novels sold half a million copies and he was the preferred author of Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin. In addition there were three volumes of poetry (one selling almost thirty thousand copies in ten weeks), three non-fiction books and three published plays, with many others also performed.Today, the name and work of Francis Brett Young are on the verge of obscurity.

År 2001 grundades Nationella forskarskolan i historiska studier, en unik miljö där doktorander med historiska ämnen kan diskutera sina avhandlingar, åka på internationella utbyten, delta i kurser, skrivreträtter och internat, arrangera workshops och -- inte minst -- umgås, inspireras, utmanas och utvecklas. Spänna brett och sikta högt är en jubileumsskrift till forskarskolan. När den fyllde tjugo år firades den med en jubileumsblogg där doktorander, handledare, lärare och andra delade med sig av sina minnen och erfarenheter från de senaste två decennierna. Dessa blogginlägg utgör ryggraden i boken och kompletteras med en tidslinje och förteckningar över alla doktorander, avhandlingar och medarbetare mellan 2001 och 2021. Men boken är också en festskrift till Hanne Sanders, professor i historia vid Lunds universitet, grundare av Centrum för Öresundsstudier och verksamhetsledare för forskarskolan sedan 2010. I över ett decennium har forskarskolan varit hennes skötebarn men i augusti 2022 lämnar hon över stafettpinnen till en ny generation. I slutet av samma år fyller hon 65. Därför vill forskarskolans ledningsgrupp fira Hanne Sanders med denna jubileumsskrift. Boken avslutas med en text av historieprofessor Harald Gustafsson, där han presenterar Hanne Sanders vetenskapliga gärning.

Just when you thought you had it all...... It can be ripped from you in the most devastating way. Will you be prepared to fight? -- It started without trust. Passion. Lust. An all-consuming need; that was all we had in the beginning. Lies. Betrayal. Deceit. We moved past it all and fell in love anyway. Over ten years later, with a family of our own, our little world was perfect. Happy. But then that happiness faded away when she came into our lives. No control. No power. Just heartbreak and unwanted submission. We were forced to our knees at the sight of her. The words falling from her lips were like nails digging at our soul because we knew. We would have to go through hell to get out of this. And even then, I wasn't sure if it would be enough.
