Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Queens of Society, Vol. 1 of 2 Yet it is permitted to us to feel something of a kindred sensation in reading the Queens of Society of Grace and Philip Wharton. For here in these pages we meet with a charming company - and all, like Madame de Custine's guests, are women. Indeed, we are exceptionally fortunate, for, while the guests of the great French lady were limited to her contemporaries to a charming de Louvois, a charming de Crenay, a charming d'harville, a charming de Vaubecourt - we can move in a society invited from many times, and can, in fancy, feel that we look in the same hour upon the faces of fair and witty women, sundered in fact by gene rations. Indeed, we might perhaps be tempted to wish that an even wider range had been taken: that more Ladies Of Old Time had been hidden to the feast; that Queens of Society who reigned before the spacious Eliza bethan days might have been included. But this were unmannerly; this were to quarrel with our host and hostess. Madame de Custine's supper parties could not entertain all her friends. It is our part to accept with gratitude the company our hosts have been pleased to choose for us. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Encomium Emmae Reginae written by Alistair Campbell and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1998-08-13 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Encomium Emmae Reginae is a political tract in praise, as its title suggests, of Queen Emma, daughter of Duke Richard I of Normandy, wife of King Ethelred the Unready from 1002 to 1016, and wife of the Danish conqueror King Cnut from 1017 to 1035. It is a primary source of the utmost importance for our understanding of the Danish conquest of England in the early eleventh century, and for the political intrigue in the years which followed the death of King Cnut in 1035. It offers a remarkable account of a woman who was twice a queen, and of her determination to retain her power as queen-mother. This reprint, which contains the definitive text and translation of the Encomium Emmae Reginae first published in 1949, traces the basic outline of Queen Emma's career and transports us to the heart of eleventh-century politics by defining as clearly as possible the historical context in which the Encomium was written.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Maiden Monarch, Vol. 1 of 2: Or Island Queen Human nature is beautiful; and it is because a book is the faithful delineation of the mind as a picture is of the face, that we love to pore over its pages, and there View the lights and shadows which nature sheds around it, but which are so veiled and dis guised in the present artificial state of society, that in mixing with the world, we but rarely see man in his true character; that strange creature, man, who - though exalted above all others in the creation - is the only one, that, instead of being proud to appear what he really is, is constantly striving to appear what he is not.

Download or read book The Queen of Sheba written by Deborah M. Coulter-Harris and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2013-05-28 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part I of this book begins with a scriptural study of all Sheba references, particularly the origins and genealogy of the name and its connections with Hebrew patriarchs such as Abraham and kings Saul and David; it later explores the literature and legends surrounding king Solomon and his trade negotiations with Sheba. The text analyzes theories and links between the Queen of Sheba and Pharaoh Hatshepsut, and concludes that Sheba may well be the Pharaoh based upon linguistic associations and the related stories from a multitude of regions and countries. Part II travels into ancient Arabian, Yemeni, Ethiopian, and Eritrean tales of the Queen of Sheba, and examines the mention of Sheba in an array of Jewish, Christian, and Muslim texts. It scrutinizes associations between ancient gods and pharaohs, particularly the similarity of their iconographic representations, the meaning of their symbols and signs that connect with Sheba legends and Hatshepsut's history, the real extent and location of her vast empire.
