Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ambassador's Trunk IT was a profound philosopher who said, that if the nose of Cleopatra had been shorter, the whole face of the earth would have been changed. By the application of the same law of chance it may be fairly claimed that if Vance Prescott had not turned back, on that sunny day in May, the history of the modern world would have been changed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ambassadors, Vol. 1 I recall then in this connexion no moment of subjective intermittence, never one of those alarms as for a suspected hollow beneath one's feet, a felt ingratitude in the scheme adopted, under which confidence fails and opportunity seems but to mock. If the motive of The Wings of the Dove, as I have noted, was to worry me at moments by a scaling up of its face though without prejudice to its again, of a sudden, fairly grimacing with expression so in this other business I had absolute conviction and constant clearness to deal with; it had been a frank proposition, the whole bunch of data, installed on my premises like a monotony of fine weather. (the order of composition, in these things, I may mention, was reversed by the order of publication; the earlier written of the two books having appeared as the later.) Even under the weight of my hero's years I could feel. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ambassadors, Vol. 2 IT was n't the first time Strether had sat alone in the great dim church - still less was it the first of his giving himself up, so far as conditions permitted, to its beneficent action on his nerves. He had been to Notre Dame with Waymarsh, he had been there with Miss Gostrey, he had been there with Chad Newsome, and had found the place, even in company, such a refuge from the obsession of his problem that, with renewed pressure from that source, he had not um naturally recurred to a remedy meeting the case, for the moment, so indirectly, no doubt, but so relievingly. He was conscious enough that it was only for the mo ment, but good moments if he could call them good still had their value for a man who by this time struck himself as living almost disgracefully from hand to mouth. Having so well learnt the way, he had lately made the pilgrimage more than once by himself - had quite stolen off, taking an unnoticed chance and making no point of speaking of the adventure when restored to his friends.

What Maisie Knew is a novel by Henry James, first published as a serial in the Chap-Book and in the New Review in 1897 and then as a book later that year.

Download or read book The Ambassador s Secret written by John North and published by Bloomsbury Academic. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ambassadors--the famous portrait of two diplomats visiting Henry VIII's court in London 1533--has long been celebrated by art historians. Traditionally the painting has been seen as representing the political and religious unrest of its day. Now, historian John North, author of Stonehenge: A New Interpretation of Prehistoric Man and the Cosmos, once again uses his investigative skills to reinterpret history. In this radical reinterpretation of the painting John North shows that the work has a very different and previously undetected, central theme. Far from being random, the objects are very deliberately placed. Part international riddle, part art history, and part French history, the book opens a remarkable window on the world of the Renaissance.
