Book excerpt: For more than two hundred years, the authorship of the works known as the Shakespeare canon has been called into question. Each chapter in this book explores an issue that has not been closely investigated, bringing new depth to the Shakespeare Authorship Question. For example, the man from Stratford -upon-Avon was rich: he owned five houses. Yet he fails to support his wife in her widowhood; all he could bring himself to leave her in his will was his second best bed. In the chapter on his Last Will and Testament, he leaves nothing to the Stratford Grammar School -- something that a local lad who was an important person in London (if the story was true) would surely have done. No school classmate recalled him. No teacher that he might have had remembered him. The Stratford man's daughters were illiterate, as were his wife and his parents. No writer or educated person records meeting him. No one loaned him a book; he makes no mention of books in his will. No one paid tribute to him when he died. In short, there is no hard evidence to show that he even had a cultivated mind or led a cultured life. But if this man from Stratford did not write the great literary masterpieces attributed to him, then who did? When people have searched for a better candidate, they have looked at historical figures with memorable biographies. Edward de Vere, the 17th Earl of Oxford, was forgotten. His name was extracted from the dustbin of history by a Shakespearean profile. De Vere (called "Oxford") was discovered because a few of his short poems survived. There was, according to a 19th century editor, "an atmosphere of graciousness and culture about them that is grateful." About the author, he noted "that somehow a shadow lies across his [Oxford's] memory." As we have learned more about Oxford's unusual life, we find that he fits the Shakespeare profile with startling specificity.

Book excerpt: Arnhand, Castauriga, and Navaya lost their kings. The Grail Empire lost its empress. The Church lost its Patriarch, though he lives on as a fugitive. The Night lost Kharoulke the Windwalker, an emperor amongst the most primal and terrible gods. The Night goes on, in dread. The world goes on, in dread. The ice builds and slides southward. New kings come. A new empress will rule. Another rump polishes the Patriarchal Throne. But there is something new under the sun. The oldest and fiercest of the Instrumentalities has been destroyed--by a mortal. There is no new Windwalker, nor will there ever be. The world, battered by savage change, limps toward its destiny. And the ice is coming. Working God's Mischief is the savage, astounding new novel of The Instrumentalities of Night, by Glen Cook, a modern master of military fantasy.
Download or read book No Great Mischief written by Alistair MacLeod and published by Emblem Editions. This book was released on 2012-01-11 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alexander MacDonald guides us through his family’s mythic past as he recollects the heroic stories of his people: loggers, miners, drinkers, adventurers; men forever in exile, forever linked to their clan. There is the legendary patriarch who left the Scottish Highlands in 1779 and resettled in “the land of trees,” where his descendents became a separate Nova Scotia clan. There is the team of brothers and cousins, expert miners in demand around the world for their dangerous skills. And there is Alexander and his twin sister, who have left Cape Breton and prospered, yet are haunted by the past. Elegiac, hypnotic, by turns joyful and sad, No Great Mischief is a spellbinding story of family, loyalty, exile, and of the blood ties that bind us, generations later, to the land from which our ancestors came.

When Inge Maria arrives on the tiny island of Bornholm in Denmark to live with her grandmother, she's not sure what to expect. Her grandmother is stern, the people on the island are strange, and children are supposed to be seen and not heard. But no matter how hard Inge tries to be good, mischief has a way of finding her. Could it be that a bit of mischief is exactly what Grandmother and the people of Bornholm need?
Download or read book An Enquiry into Moral Notions Routledge Revivals written by John Laird and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-01-09 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1935, this book compares and examines what John Laird termed the ‘three most important notions in ethical science’: the concepts of virtue, duty and well-being. Laird poses the question of whether any one of these three concepts is capable of being the foundation of ethics and of supporting the other two. This is an interesting reissue, which will be of particular value to students researching the philosophy of ethics and morality.

Download or read book The Book of Fallacies written by Jeremy Bentham and published by Collected Works of Jeremy Bent. This book was released on 2015 with total page 639 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present edition of The Book of Fallacies is the first that follows Bentham's own structure for the work, and includes a great deal of material, both in terms of the fallacies themselves and the illustrative matter, that previous versions of the work have omitted. The fallacies that concerned Bentham were not logical errors of the sort identified by Aristotle, or commonplace misunderstandings of matters of fact, but arguments deployed in political debate, in particular in the British Parliament, in order to prevent reform. Bentham not only identified, described, and criticized the fallacious arguments in question, which were all characterized by their irrelevancy, but explained the sinister interests that led politicians to employ them and their supporters to accept them. By exposing these political fallacies, Bentham hoped to prevent their employment in future, and thereby to place political debate on its only proper ground, namely considerations drawn from the principle of utility.
