Book excerpt: Today's knitters may be spoilt for choice when it comes to cutesy project books, but even the most enthusiastic needle crafters are likely to become tired of the same old dogs, cats, and farmyard animals after a while. Providing a delightfully refreshing antidote to this surfeit of cutesiness, Knit Your Own Kama Sutra offers a saucy and subversive take on the traditional knitting projects book, and is guaranteed to prove a resounding hit among jaded crafters everywhere. Focusing on a variety of the most popular positions from the classic Kama Sutra guide-as well as a few of the more acrobatic ones-each of the book's 12 projects begins with a witty, light- hearted overview offering quirky facts and information relating to the position. These are followed by clear, easy-to-follow knitting patterns and instructions that help to guide the reader through every stage of the project down to the last little detail. Specially commissioned photographs accompany the instructions throughout so that readers can visualize each and every step. To add an extra element of fun, each project is also given a different setting-in addition to the bedroom, readers can choose to place their amorous couple in the back row at the movies, before the fire in a cosy log cabin, in the hot tub, or even make them members of the 'mile high' club! Complete patterns and instructions are given for knitting up a wide variety of delightful accessories to accompany each scenario, including everything from mini cartons of popcorn to little knitted backpacks and hiking boots. The 12 saucy couples featured in the book are all different to one another, allowing knitters to have fun with a variety of features such as hairstyles, glasses, and beards, as well as a selection of outfits, including everything from frilly suspender belts to snazzy briefs (and socks!)

Book excerpt: One of the best English translations of this ancient Indian treatise on politics, social mores, love, and intimacy are the Kama Sutra, which Mallanaga Vatsyayana wrote in the second century CE. Its clean presentation raised the bar for Sanskrit translation. The Kama Sutra is a unique combination of sexology, society, psychology. It has been hailed as a great work of Indian literature for more than 1,700 years and has served as a window for the West into the mysticism and culture of the East. The Kama Sutra, a prehistoric Indian literature, is regarded as the most important Sanskrit study of human sexuality. The Kama Sutra remains one of the most accessible and entertaining of all the ancient classics, having been written with frankness and unassuming simplicity. The Kama Sutra is so significant as a work of philosophy, psychology, sociology, theology, science, and sexology that it simultaneously had an impact on Indian civilization and remained a crucial component in understanding it.

Download or read book Jane Austen Her Life and Letters A Family Record written by Arthur Austen-Leigh and published by anboco. This book was released on 2016-09-05 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1870-1, when J. E. Austen Leigh published his Memoir of Jane Austen, considerable additions have been made to the stock of information available for her biographers. Of these fresh sources of knowledge the set of letters from Jane to Cassandra, edited by Lord Brabourne, has been by far the most important. These letters are invaluable as mémoires pour servir; although they cover only the comparatively rare periods when the two sisters were separated, and although Cassandra purposely destroyed many of the letters likely to prove the most interesting, from a distaste for publicity. Some further correspondence, and many incidents in the careers of two of her brothers, may be read in Jane Austen's Sailor Brothers, by J. H. Hubback and Edith C. Hubback; while Miss Constance Hill has been able to add several family traditions to the interesting topographical information embodied in her Jane Austen: Her Homes and Her Friends. Nor ought we to forget the careful research shown in[vi] other biographies of the author, especially that by Mr. Oscar Fay Adams. During the last few years, we have been fortunate enough to be able to add to this store; and every existing MS. or tradition preserved by the family, of which we have any knowledge, has been placed at our disposal. It seemed, therefore, to us that the time had come when a more complete chronological account of the novelist's life might be laid before the public, whose interest in Jane Austen (as we readily acknowledge) has shown no signs of diminishing, either in England or in America. The Memoir must always remain the one firsthand account of her, resting on the authority of a nephew who knew her intimately and that of his two sisters. We could not compete with its vivid personal recollections; and the last thing we should wish to do, even were it possible, would be to supersede it.
