Download or read book Poe Meets Shaw The Shaw Alphabet Edition of Edgar Allan Poe written by Tim Browne and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book in 50 years to be published in the Shaw Alphabet with a side by side comparison with traditional spelling. The book includes multiple works of Edgar Allan Poe in both formats, including many old favourites and many fascinating works that the general public, as a rule, has never heard of, on topics including love poetry, science fiction, science fact, book reviews and more. To help people new to the system, I've included an appendix explaining things that I found challenging with the Shaw Alphabet spelling system and how I resolved them to help people new to the system as well as a complete guide to the alphabet itself.
Download or read book Poe Meets Shaw The Condensed Shaw Alphabet Edition of Edgar Allan Poe written by Tim Browne and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-12-28 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As you're undoubtedly aware, English is a highly non-phonetic language. So determined was he to change this, George Bernard Shaw would not give up even in death. Instead he proposed a contest in his will to make a 100%% phonetic English alphabet. The contest was held, the alphabet was created and his play Androcles and the Lion was converted to the new alphabet. Instead of spreading far and wide, it sadly died a quiet death... until now. In this work you'll find many examples of Poe's genius. Most know him only as the father of modern horror, not knowing that he also wrote love poetry, science fiction, science fact, plays, book reviews and a documentary on how he wrote The Raven. Now, for the first time ever, you can enjoy Edgar Allan Poe as you've never seen him before... in 100%% phonetic English. NOTE: This special condensed edition is primarily intended for people who are already experienced with the Shaw Alphabet and are fully aware of its advantages over our current spelling system.

Download or read book Pride and Prejudice Shavian alphabet edition written by Jane Austen and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-05-25 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is Jane Austen's classic novel Pride and Prejudice as you've never seen it before-in the Shavian alphabet. The alphabet takes its name from Irish writer Bernard Shaw who inspired and posthumously funded it. Shaw believed there should be a simpler way to write English. His wish was fulfilled in 1962 following a worldwide competition. The result was a bespoke alphabet for English, with a unique letter for each of the 40 or so basic sounds we all use today. Whether you view this book as a linguistic curiosity, an eccentricexperiment, or as inspiration to explore the possibilities of spellingreform, it shows one thing: English spelling does not have to remain trapped in the Middle Ages. There is no better way to get to know this curious alphabet with its colourful history than by reading one of the best novels in the English language. At the very least, it may help answer one question: how do you pronounce Georgiana?

Book excerpt: “One of the most profound and illuminating studies of this century to have been published in recent decades.”—John Gray, New York Times Book Review Hailed as “a magisterial critique of top-down social planning” by the New York Times, this essential work analyzes disasters from Russia to Tanzania to uncover why states so often fail—sometimes catastrophically—in grand efforts to engineer their society or their environment, and uncovers the conditions common to all such planning disasters. “Beautifully written, this book calls into sharp relief the nature of the world we now inhabit.”—New Yorker “A tour de force.”— Charles Tilly, Columbia University

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to the feminist movement, we're living in an "oppressive patriarchy" which keeps women down and benefits men. What if this story that we've been told repeatedly over the past 50 years isn't true? What if, instead, women have actually been part of a privileged class for centuries? In this book, you'll find many examples, such as the suffragettes who attempted to burn down the theatre at Dublin and were sentenced to the "hard labour" of... knitting, and the lady who walked after she murdered her husband and child, then gained the mercy of the court with the claim that she was "a childless widow, all alone in the world"! Now, for the first time ever, you can read about the struggle for gender equality as never before... not only from the man's point of view, but in 100%% phonetic English. NOTE: this version is almost entirely written in the Shaw Alphabet at a reduced font size and is intended for people who are already well aware of its advantages over our current spelling system.
