Hold one, and succeeded admirably; but a little less cowardice on the rt of Mr. Gladstone, or a little less arrogance on the part of ussia, and even our peace-at-any price statesman could have landed the country in a war with an Asiatic rival, and in two, if not three, quarters of the globe at once. As to France, the incessant stimulus with which Mr. Gladstone's personality and preferences have supplied her rest less ambition is but too obvious. From the moment when her ostentatious friends came into omes, she became, to all intent and purposes, their and our enemy. For the last five years she has steadily set herself to oppose and contrast to Enoland when ever the two nations crossed each other's path; and sine is, at this moment, the soul of that European league against us in Egypt, whose existence and activity constitute one of the most sen ous dangers which the new Government will have to face. But here again the mere change of persons may quite conceivably render the situation more manageable. If France is the seat of the coalition against us in Egypt, Germany is, after all, its heavy hand and the substitution of an English Government which he can get on with, for one which has never made the faintest attempt to get on with him, may have the effect of inducing Prince Bismarck to take an entirely new view of our position there, and of the allowance which should be made for us.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Time, 1885, Vol. 1: A Monthly Magazine of Current Topics, Literature and Art I had a great craze for all manner of eighteenth-century concerns, especially musical. And, in fact, this phrase which thus returned to me, wholly detached from its surroundings, must be a sentence of a long recitative in which Horatia, sister of the Roman champions, bewails the death of her lover Curiatius; a recitative which cannot be very interesting in itself, since this phrase is the only son of it that I can possibly call to mind. Thus much is clear. Ut why on earth should these five notes have haunted me during the Wagner performance? Why of call operatic heroes and heroines that ever existed, should this Curiazio have intruded into the company of Tristram and Yseult? In order that you may appreciate to the full the unexpectedness, the incongruity, the grotesqueness of this meeting between the most tragic pair of mediaeval lovers and this particular ancient Roman of the late eighteenth century, it is necessary that I attempt to give you some idea of Signor Curiazio. The business is a little roundabout, but its oddity deserves to be satisfactorily understood. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Time, 1886, Vol. 4: A Monthly Magazine of Current Topics, Literature and Art TO some may seem a respectable amount for London to subscribe on a single Sunday to the hospitals of the metropolis. Yet what is it compared with London's wants? The London Hospital alone costs a year to keep up, and thus the whole of the sum annually gathered from the many millions of the wealthiest city in the world, is barely sufficient to provide for the requirements Of a mere third-rate hospital Of three or four hundred beds, let alone one like the London Hospital with eight hundred. When the Hospital Sunday Fund comes to be divided among the many claimants, the share apportioned to each is, compared with the expenditure Of the recipient, so unsatisfactory that more than once the question has been raised - What is the good Of Hospital Sunday The Opponents of the Fund argue that the general appeal once a year leads the public to give only once a year, and occasions an erroneous impression that this single donation is sufficient in the aggregate to provide a substantial addition to the ordinary hospital revenue. It is alleged, also, that the hospitals dislike the fund, because it discourages public benevolence, and one serious effect of this allegation is, that persons who desire to satisfy their consciences that they are not mean in giving only a threepenny-piece donation to the fund on Hospital Sunday, invoke an excuse which effectually destroys the effect of the most eloquent sermon.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born in England in 1857, Agnes Mary Frances Robinson contributed to cultural and literary currents from nineteenth-century Victorianism to twentieth-century modernism; she was equally at home in London and Paris and prolific in both English and French. Yet Robinson remains an enigma on many levels. This literary biography integrates Robinson's unorthodox life with her development as a writer across genres. Best known for her poetry, Robinson was also a respected biographer, history writer, travel writer, and contributor of reviews and articles to the Times Literary Supplement for nearly forty years. She had a romantic friendship with the writer Vernon Lee and two happy – and celibate – marriages. Her salons in London and Paris were attended by major literary and artistic figures, and she counted amongst her friends Robert Browning, Oscar Wilde, John Addington Symonds, Gaston Paris, Ernest Renan, and Maurice Barrès. Reflecting a decade of research in international archives and family papers, A. Mary F. Robinson reveals the extraordinary woman behind the popular writer and critically acclaimed poet.
