Thankfulness and Trust--Italy and America--Home Scenes--Illness and Death of her Youngest Son--Edinburgh and Ilfracombe--Last Correspondence with Isaac Taylor--His Death--Last Visit to Lavenham--A Hint of the End. CHAPTER X. NOTTINGHAM. 1862-1866. "Yes, 80 years! They did not crawl, Nor, as we fancy, fly;--They kept their pace with Time's foot-fall, And slid in silence by." Ann Gilbert. "Christiana, the bitter is before the sweet. Thou must through troubles, as did he that went before thee, enter this celestial city." Bunyan. "A STREAM of comfort has flowed up hill from the low levels of Lavenham: " so wrote our dear mother as she looked back on the long course now nearly closed. "Giving thanks always for all things" might have been her motto through life, and in the bright evening of her days thankfulness, amid some sore trials yet befalling her, was always on her lips. This grateful spirit illuminates every page of the letters now before me. In writing to her brother Isaac, who had remarked, inter alia, "my father was a man of talent, but my mother was a woman of genius," she says--"I rejoice in your full and warm acknowledgement of obligation to our dear parents. When I reflect on their mutual disadvantages, I wonder! They extracted good out of much evil, --taught by contraries; and I own most thankfully how much of any right views I have, is due to them. It is very nice to feel a stream of benefit flowing over us, so long and so widely, from that modest source. I do love and revere their memories." In similar strain she wrote the following--My father! Well the name he bore, For never man was father more; Gentle but firm, his loving eye Looked with no grudge as by and bye His quiver filling to the brim, (St...

Download or read book A Pleasing Prospect written by Shani D'Cruze and published by Univ of Hertfordshire Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on extensive primary-source research, this historical account considers the changing identity of 18th-century Colchester from the perspective of its "middling sort"--a section of society often attached to cultures of politeness and to the practices of consumption and production that helped shape economic change. Painstakingly reconstructing 18th-century social networks along lines of family, kinship, gender, spatiality, religion, and politics, this study examines the relationships between individual and family biographies while reflecting on provincial urban society and culture. The guide explores how Colchester capitalized on growth in agriculturally based industries--such as brewing, milling, and malting--and its role as an east-coast port and its participating in the urban renaissance and commodification of polite culture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story behind the classic and universally recognized rhyme! This luminous picture book biography shines a light on the little-known poet and author of the beloved lullaby. Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are. Did you ever wonder who wrote that famous verse? In the days when most girls were brought up to run a home, Jane Taylor had a different kind of education in the English countryside, where she was inspired by nature and the stars, and dreamed of becoming a writer. But in the late 1700s, it was not considered proper for women to be writers. Jane and other female poets were shunned, unable to use their own names when published.But Jane did write, and she never forgot her love for the beauty of nature and the glow of stars, or her desire to write for children. Her published poetry became universally known for generations to come: Twinkle, twinkle little star. This lyrical and luminous biography shines a light on the unsung poet who wrote the words of our most enduring lullaby, and features stunning artwork reflecting the world, the stars, and the story behind the poem that we all know so well.

Leonore Davidoff and Catherine Hall evaluate the readings their text has received and broaden their study by taking into account recent developments and shifts in the field. They apply current perceptions of history to their original project, and see new motives and meanings emerge that reinforce their argument.
