"Shall he for whose applause I strove, I had such reverence for his blame, See with clear eye some lessened shame, And I be lessen'd in his love?" TENNYSON. A Few days after the concert at Desborough Abbey, Mrs. Calthorpe called at the Arches to learn all particulars. Mary gave her some amusing descriptions, but still affirmed that she was wrong in not being there. "No, no;" Mrs. Calthorpe said firmly, "I have acted according to my deliberate opinion. and therefore feel justified. But," she added, "you have not yet told me how you liked my brother." Mary opened her eyes. "Your brother! Dear Mrs. Calthorpe, he surely was not there?" Mrs. Calthorpe, in her turn, looked mystified, as she said: "Why he told me that Lord Maldyn, with whom he is staying, presented him to you: --and added, moreover, that you more than fulfilled all the pretty things he has heard of you." Mary still looked incredulous; saying that the gentleman to whom Lord Maldyn had introduced her, was some one of title. "Exactly, my dear;" Mrs. Calthorpe said. "Willie has just been to Windsor by the King's command, where he has received the honour of being made a Knight of the Guelphic order." Mary blushed scarlet. She now felt certain that the dignified stranger--the starched "Sir William"--must have been the Willie of whom she had heard so much--the diplomatic brother of Mrs. Calthorpe! He was the man of all others, to whom she would have least liked to have shown the deference and attention which she had done; seeing that, in consequence of his large estate and beautiful mansion, he was accounted a marvellous good match in the country; and also that Mrs. Calthorpe had at divers times, hinted the satisfaction it would yield her to see him united to herself....

Download or read book Fashion Victims written by Alison Matthews David and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-09-24 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From insidious murder weapons to blaze-igniting crinolines, clothing has been the cause of death, disease and madness throughout history, by accident and design. Clothing is designed to protect, shield and comfort us, yet lurking amongst seemingly innocuous garments we find hats laced with mercury, frocks laden with arsenic and literally 'drop-dead gorgeous' gowns. Fabulously gory and gruesome, Fashion Victims takes the reader on a fascinating journey through the lethal history of women's, men's and children's dress, in myth and reality. Drawing upon surviving fashion objects and numerous visual and textual sources, encompassing louse-ridden military uniforms, accounts of the fiery deaths of Oscar Wilde's half-sisters and dancer Isadora Duncan's accidental strangulation by entangled scarf; the book explores how garments have tormented those who made and wore them, and harmed animals and the environment in the process. Vividly chronicling evidence from Greek mythology to the present day, Matthews David puts everyday apparel under the microscope and unpicks the dark side of fashion. Fashion Victims is lavishly illustrated with over 125 images and is a remarkable resource for everyone from scholars and students to fashion enthusiasts.

Book The Dangers of Fashion

Download or read book The Dangers of Fashion written by Sara B. Marcketti and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "From sweatshops to fur farming, from polluting chemicals to painful garments, the fashion industry is associated with activities which have had devastating effects on workers, consumers, and the natural world. This ground-breaking volume provides a framework for examining the ethical, social, and environmental dangers that arise as fashion products are designed, manufactured, distributed and sold within retail outlets, before being consumed and disposed of. Encompassing the cultural, psychological and physiological aspects of fashion, it offers a comprehensive exploration of the hazards of a global industry. Drawing together an international team of leading textile and apparel experts, The Dangers of Fashion presents original perspectives on a wide range of topics from piracy and counterfeiting to human trafficking; from the effects of globalization on local industry to the peer pressure that governs contemporary ideals of beauty. Rooted in research into industry practices, it discusses innovative solutions - both potential and existing - to fashion's dangers and moral dilemmas from the viewpoint of individuals, companies, societies, and the global community"--

It always feels like the type of thing you only see on TV, until it starts happening. You might try forcing yourself to think that you are watching a horror movie, only to realize that it is happening in your face. As it happens, there is one thing that stays in the back of the mind – how is this going to end? While there are others who have cheated death and told stories of moments like these, not everyone is so lucky. But, putting luck aside, knowing just how to act during the moment might be all you need to get out of such tragic situations alive. These might include road accidents, fires, floods, etc. There is no guarantee that the information in this book will save you. However, it is a fact that everything presented might increase your chances of survival. In this book, you will learn tips you can apply in different life-threatening situations. At the end, we will look at how you can prepare for disasters. So, read on.
