Download or read book The Scholar Gypsy written by Anthony Sampson and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2012-11-19 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a child, Anthony Sampson was haunted by a family skeleton. He knew his grandfather John Sampson had been an authority on the gypsies. They had called him the Rai - the Master - and had flocked to his magnificent funeral on a Welsh mountain. But of his grandfather's private life he was told nothing, nor of the mysterious aunt who joined the family after his death. In fact only sixty years later did the truth begin to emerge. This book follows a trail of clues to uncover an extraordinary hidden life and a gypsy world now disappeared. John Sampson was a brilliant philologist who, happening to encounter a gypsy tribe in North Wales, compiled over thirty years a dictionary of the Romani language that remains the standard work. But he also became a Bohemian himself, a bigamist and the father of a child who was brought up secretly and who would in turn become a remarkable scholar. Using intimate letters, bawdy rhymes and wonderful illustrations- including many by Augustus John who was part of the circle - Anthony Sampson brings to life a group of scholars, writers and painters who escaped Victorian convention to pursue an alternative life in the Welsh hills. The Scholar Gypsy is both a detective story and a moving voyage of discovery. Ranging through finely observed contrasts and connections it illuminates many lesser-known aspects of Victorian and Edwardian Britain and vividly conveys the spell that gypsies cast on the imagination of artists and writers, and the fear that they arouse among the conventional.

Download or read book The Highly Civilized Man written by Dane Kennedy and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2007-10-15 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richard Burton was one of Victorian Britain's most protean figures. A soldier, explorer, ethnographer, and polyglot of rare power, as well as a poet, travel writer, and translator of the tales of the Arabian Nights and the Kama Sutra, Burton exercised his abundant talents in a diverse array of endeavors. Though best remembered as an adventurer who entered Mecca in disguise and sought the source of the White Nile, Burton traveled so widely, wrote so prolifically, and contributed so forcefully to his generation's most contentious debates that heprovides us with a singularly panoramic perspective on the world of theVictorians. One of the great challenges confronting the British in the nineteenth century was to make sense of the multiplicity of peoples and cultures they encountered in their imperial march around the globe. Burton played an important role in this mission. Drawing on his wide-ranging experiences in other lands and intense curiosity about their inhabitants, he conducted an intellectually ambitious, highly provocative inquiry into racial, religious, and sexual differences that exposed his own society's norms to scrutiny. Dane Kennedy offers a fresh and compelling examination of Burton and his contribution to the widening world of the Victorians. He advances the view that the Victorians' efforts to attach meaning to the differences they observed among other peoples had a profound influence on their own sense of self, destabilizing identities and reshaping consciousness. Engagingly written and vigorously argued, The Highly Civilized Man is an important contribution to our understanding of a remarkable man and a crucial era.

Book excerpt: She is Kassandra, a “wild child” raised in a magical forest, a fey dreamer who is innocent of society’s rules and too reckless to follow them anyway. In her nighttime visions she sees a powerful Scottish laird with whom she is destined to share a passionate bond, if she can save him from a hooded murderer. For him, she will travel to the king’s court, risking ridicule and confronting treachery in her quest to claim the man of her dreams. He is Cadedryn, battle-hardened and emotionally scarred, a man driven to regain the title and honor his father threw away in the name of love. No redheaded firebrand will stop him from making a favorable political marriage for himself, no matter how persistent her warnings or how irresistible her allure. But when Kassandra’s dire predictions begin to come true, Cadedryn must face the truth—that violence threatens him on all sides...and Kassandra holds the key to both his survival and his every chance for happiness.
