He wrote penetrating novels on political, social, and gender issues and conflicts of his day. In 1867 Trollope left his position in the British Post Office to run for Parliament as a Liberal candidate in 1868. After he lost, he concentrated entirely on his literary career. While continuing to produce novels rapidly, he also edited the St Paul's Magazine, which published several of his novels in serial form. His first major success came with The Warden (1855) - the first of six novels set in the fictional county of Barsetshire. The comic masterpiece Barchester Towers (1857) has probably become the best-known of these.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Margaret Mead and Zora Neale Hurston to Lionel Trilling and Lou Gehrig, Columbia University has been home to some of the most important historians, scientists, critics, artists, physicians, and social scientists of the twentieth century. (It can also boast a hall-of-fame athlete.) In Living Legacies at Columbia, contributors with close personal ties to their subjects capture Columbia's rich intellectual history. Essays span the birth of genetics and modern anthropology, constitutionalism from John Jay to Ruth Bader Ginsberg, Virginia Apgar's test, Lou Gehrig's swing, journalism education, black power, public health, the development of Asian studies, the Great Books Movement, gender studies, human rights, and numerous other realms of teaching and discovery. They include Eric Foner on historian Richard Hoftstader, Isaac Levi and Sidney Hook on John Dewey, David Rosand on art historian Meyer Schapiro, John Hollander on critic Mark Van Doren, Donald Keene on Asian studies, Jacques Barzun on history, Eric Kandel on geneticist Thomas Hunt Morgan, and Rosalind Rosenberg on Franz Boas and his three most famous pupils: Ruth Benedict, Margaret Mead, and Zora Neale Hurston. Much more than an institutional history, Living Legacies captures the spirit of a great university through the stories of gifted men and women who have worked, taught, and studied at Columbia. It includes stories of struggle and breakthrough, searching and discovery, tradition and transformation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Greek word 'poesis' means bringing into existence expressions, which did not exist before. 'Choreographing Calligraphy' is a collection of original poetry by Katrina Plumb. She works with society's outcasts, creating an environment in which they can explore their emotions for the first time, and leave a verbal record of their experience. Double acrostics are a form, obliging the poet to combine care and curiosity conscientiously, and Katrina employs this framework to convey a wide variety of emotions, forever choreographing transformation in style. Katrina Plumb works with recovering addicts as a Creative Writing Mentor, whilst studying at Bristol University, en route to becoming a Poetry Therapist. She enjoys bringing into existence expressions that were not here before and has had a variegated life from which to draw. Double acrostics have held her fascination for the last few months, and Choreographing Transformation is a lifetime endeavor.
