Download or read book The Queens of England written by Agnes Strickland and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Queens of England: A Series of Portraits of Distinguished Female Sovereigns These pages contain portraits of Queens of England, from the earliest period of the monarchy to the present day. In this number are those of many who were unsurpassed in their personal charms, and in the lofty and heroic traits of their character; whilst all have been distinguished by the elevation of their rank, and the incidents of their career. Notwithstanding these circumstances, it has been designed to place the highest claim of the work to a favorable reception, upon the eminent skill and taste of the Artists which it should display. For this purpose, all these portraits have been painted and engraved only by such artists as were distinguished in their profession. That their labors might be surpassed in excellence and perfection need not be denied; but that such an attempt would place them far beyond the limits of a just expenditure, is equally apparent.

Download or read book Middle English Literature written by Christopher Cannon and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-04-18 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a boldly original account of Middle English literature from the Norman Conquest to the beginning of the sixteenth century. It argues that these centuries are, in fundamental ways, the momentous period in our literary history, for they are the long moment in which the category of literature itself emerged as English writing began to insist, for the first time, that it floated free of any social reality or function. This book also charts the complex mechanisms by which English writing acquired this power in a series of linked close readings of both canonical and more obscure texts. It encloses those readings in five compelling accounts of much broader cultural areas, describing, in particular, the productive relationship of Middle English writing to medieval technology, insurgency, statecraft and cultural place, concluding with an in depth account of the particular arguments, emphases and techniques English writers used to claim a wholly new jurisdiction for their work. Both this history and its readings are everywhere informed by the most exciting developments in recent Middle English scholarship as well as literary and cultural theory. It serves as an introduction to all these areas as well as a contribution, in its own right, to each of them.
