Download or read book The Hanoverian Dimension in British History 1714 1837 written by Brendan Simms and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2007-02-08 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than 120 years (1714-1837) Great Britain was linked to the German Electorate, later Kingdom, of Hanover through Personal Union. This made Britain a continental European state in many respects, and diluted her sense of insular apartness. The geopolitical focus of Britain was now as much on Germany, on the Elbe and the Weser as it was on the Channel or overseas. At the same time, the Hanoverian connection was a major and highly controversial factor in British high politics and popular political debate. This volume was the first systematically to explore the subject by a team of experts drawn from the UK, US and Germany. They integrate the burgeoning specialist literature on aspects of the Personal Union into the broader history of eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century Britain. Never before had the impact of the Hanoverian connection on British politics, monarchy and the public sphere, been so thoroughly investigated.

Book excerpt: "The author has shown his usual logical acuteness and methodical arrangement. The whole work must be regarded as a valuable contribution to the important division of chemical knowledge of which it treats; and it will doubtless form an indispensable treatise to the physiologist and whoever wishes to form clear notions on the chemical principles and chemical phenomena of animal bodies." So wrote a reviewer of the present work in the 1844 volume of the "Edinburgh Medical and Surgical Journal".

Download or read book For His Eyes Only written by Lisa Funnell and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2015-10-20 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The release of Skyfall in 2012 marked the fiftieth anniversary of the James Bond film franchise. It earned over one billion dollars in the worldwide box office and won two Academy Awards. Amid popular and critical acclaim, some have questioned the representation of women in the film. From an aging M to the limited role of the Bond Girl and the characterization of Miss Moneypenny as a defunct field agent, Skyfall develops the legacy of Bond at the expense of women. Since Casino Royale (2006) and its sequels Quantum of Solace (2008) and Skyfall constitute a reboot of the franchise, it is time to question whether there is a place for women in the new world of James Bond and what role they will play in the future of series. This volume answers these questions by examining the role that women have historically played in the franchise, which greatly contributed to the international success of the films. This academic study constitutes the first book-length anthology on femininity and feminism in the Bond series. It covers all twenty-three Eon productions as well as the spoof Casino Royale (1967), considering a range of factors that have shaped the depiction of women in the franchise, including female characterization in Ian Fleming's novels; the vision of producer Albert R. Broccoli and other creative personnel; the influence of feminism; and broader trends in British and American film and television. The volume provides a timely look at women in the Bond franchise and offers new scholarly perspectives on the subject.

Download or read book The playboy and James Bond written by Claire Hines and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2018-02-19 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book to focus on James Bond’s relationship to the playboy ideal through the sixties and beyond. Examining aspects of the Bond phenomenon and the playboy lifestyle, it considers how ideas of gender and consumption were manipulated to construct and reflect a powerful male fantasy in the post-war era. This analysis of the close association and relations between the emerging cultural icons of James Bond and the playboy is particularly concerned with Sean Connery’s definitive Bond as he was promoted and used by the media. By exploring the connections that developed between Bond and Playboy magazine within a historical framework, the book offers new insights into these related phenomena and their enduring legacy in popular culture.

Download or read book The Elizabethans and the Irish written by David B. Quinn and published by Ithaca, N.Y., Published for the Folger Shakespeare Library [Washington] by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 1966 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The views held by sixteenth-century Englishmen of the Irish and their way of life were varied and often contradictory. This book explores the English impressions of the Irish during the period when England was trying to tighten her grip on Ireland and "civilize" its inhabitants. Attempts to impose English forms of religion, law, government, taxation, and social organization met with armed resistance; the author describes the old Gaelic society and customs that the Irish fought so desperately to preserve. Then, turning to contemporary accounts and drawings, he presents the differing approaches of the half-dozen major writers on the Irish—"curious, surprised, hostile, censorious, nationalistic, reforming, and, paradoxically, at times sympathetic and brutal almost in the same breath." Descriptions of the Irish by these writers comprise an important part of the book, which ends with the inevitable destruction of the old Irish society by Tudor repression and slaughter, and the movement of many Irishmen to England and the Continent. The volume contains twenty-five contemporary illustrations of Irish life.”-Publisher.
