Download or read book Why I Write written by George Orwell and published by Renard Press Ltd. This book was released on 2021-01-01 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Orwell set out ‘to make political writing into an art’, and to a wide extent this aim shaped the future of English literature – his descriptions of authoritarian regimes helped to form a new vocabulary that is fundamental to understanding totalitarianism. While 1984 and Animal Farm are amongst the most popular classic novels in the English language, this new series of Orwell’s essays seeks to bring a wider selection of his writing on politics and literature to a new readership. In Why I Write, the first in the Orwell’s Essays series, Orwell describes his journey to becoming a writer, and his movement from writing poems to short stories to the essays, fiction and non-fiction we remember him for. He also discusses what he sees as the ‘four great motives for writing’ – ‘sheer egoism’, ‘aesthetic enthusiasm’, ‘historical impulse’ and ‘political purpose’ – and considers the importance of keeping these in balance. Why I Write is a unique opportunity to look into Orwell’s mind, and it grants the reader an entirely different vantage point from which to consider the rest of the great writer’s oeuvre. 'A writer who can – and must – be rediscovered with every age.' — Irish Times

Download or read book Designed for Pleasures written by Samuel Segun Oladipo and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2021-01-13 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It can be affirmed that ALL THINGS were originally designed for PLEASURES because there was NEVER evil in the original creation! The originator of the idea of creation had no evil in Him neither could He ever imagine creating any singular thing to represent evil. Therefore, there was no evil thought, evil plan, evil agenda at any state or realm. Even Satan, the embodiment of all evils was not originally created with any spot of evil as portrayed in Ezekiel 28 :13-15 Everything about Adam , everything Adam tasted, everything Adam used, everything Adam felt (Just like God after all creations), and everything Adam saw were “VERY GOOD” without any exception. Adam originally had the mind and the Spirit of God. And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. Genesis 2:7 He was therefore pleasured by everything within and around him. They were all created for his pleasures too. Moreover, all the things that God created received nothing short of his maximum blessings. “The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it.” Proverbs 10:22 Here are some postulations in respect to the continuity of God’s designed pleasures for His creatures: 1. What if there was no Devil? 2. What if there was no tempter or temptation? 3. What if Eve and Adam had overcome the temptation? 4. What if there was no curse from God, the Creator? Well, you can be sure that the original plan and purpose of the Creator would have continued forever. Nothing void of good pleasure ever originated from God, hence the original motive of God in whatsoever He created was pleasure and for the pleasure of whom He originally bestowed them at any given time. When all is said and done, at the consummation of all things, When there shall be the emergence of the New Heaven and a New Earth, His purpose and desire will still have the original label and signature ‘Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.”(Revelation 4:11) which will ultimately be to the pleasure and delight of all creatures that will be with the Creator throughout eternity.

Download or read book Simply Raymond written by Raymond Blanc and published by Headline Home. This book was released on 2021-04-29 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Featuring recipes from Raymond's ITV series - SIMPLY RAYMOND BLANC 'Of the many cookery books that I have written, this one has the most extraordinary story,' says Raymond Blanc. His long-held plan to write a simple cookbook - inspired by his mother, Maman Blanc - began months before the Covid pandemic hit. Suddenly everything changed, and Raymond, like the rest of the world, struggled to find a way through lockdown. At home, and isolated from his family - as well as his army of chefs at the world-renowned two-star Michelin restaurant Le Manoir aux Quat'Saisons and his Brasserie Blanc restaurants - Raymond cooked and cooked. He opted for the simple dishes that evoked the happy memories, provided the connection to those he could not be with. He focused on recipes that were neither a challenge nor fussy. They required ingredients that were easily-available and needed only basic kitchen equipment. The result is Simply Raymond. It is a collection of his favourite home-cooked recipes - the dishes that mean the most to him; the ones that connect family and friends, and dishes that took him on stove-side travels to other parts of the world. Dish by dish, Simply Raymond presents an irresistible feast. This is cooking from the heart, and here you'll find must-make dishes to add to your weekly repertoire, as well as others for special occasions. There is also a profound poignancy to this book. Shortly before Raymond finished writing it, his mother sadly passed away. This book is a heartfelt tribute to her, created with passion and thoughtfulness. It is also a testament to the great pleasure derived from stepping into a kitchen, simply to cook simply for others. Something he has done all of his life. Recipes include: * Cod Cassoulet with Chorizo and Mixed Beans * A Quick Ratatouille * Cauliflower and Red Lentil Dhal * White Onion Soup * Beetroot Salad with Hot Smoked Salmon * Salade Nicoise * Tartiflette * Strawberry and Mascarpone Tart
