Some Records of the Life of Stevenson Arthur Blackwood, K. C. B by Harriet Sydney Dobbs Montagu Blackwood Pdf

Excerpt from Some Records of the Life of Stevenson Arthur Blackwood, K. C. B: Compiled by a Friend and Edited by His Widow It only seeks to give some Records of Sir Arthur Blackwood's life from his own Letters and Notes, from what his Friends said of him, and from the impressions received by those who had to do with him, whether in official, or religious, or social life. Except in the case of those who are gone, none who formed the inner circle of home life have been brought into the story; and so far as was possible, this principle has been studiously maintained. Letters, of which many must exist, have not, except in a few instances, been attainable. Under these limitations, much which could not thus be gathered up, has of necessity been left untold. It is hoped that those to whom Sir Arthur's memory is clear will feel that in these pages they again hold converse with him; and that many others, to whom he was a stranger, may recognise in this volume - with all its imperfections - the true picture of a life nobly lived for the service of god, and for the good of his fellow men.

Travels Into Print by Innes M. Keighren,Charles W. J. Withers,Bill Bell Pdf

The Age of Exploration and Discovery may well have started in the 15th century, but for the British, the 19th century saw the rise of the British Empire and an explosion in world travel. The travel narratives written during this century were profuse, and by some estimates more travel narratives were written during the first half of the 19th century than in all preceding centuries. These accounts tell of wondrous zoological and botanical finds, of topography never before imagined, and of exotic peoples as well. At the time, there was one publisher, John Murray, known for its utter domination of the travel narrative field. The caliber and profile of their list was known throughout the UK and Europe, and into the US as well. The authors of the house included Jane Austen, Lord Byron, Washington Irving, and Sir Walter Scott. And in its list of travel writing and exploration, the house boasted the authors Charles Darwin and Charles Lyell. Murray s name became as synonymous with travel writing and exploration as it was with literary giants. Travels into Print is a tour through the archives and files of the House of Murray, and marvelous expedition in the geography of travel and exploration writing, knowledge, and reception in the 19th century. Rather than focusing on narratives of a particular region, or scientific area of interest, or particular period, the work uses a source that cuts across all of these areas, the publisher. Steeped in book files, and correspondence about edits, and revisions, sent between Murray and his staff and explorers, the book addresses the ways in which the texts were written, the role of truth in the accounts, correspondence as a form of production, and the writings as travel documents. This is a wonderful history of the book, told from the perspective of a legendary book and author maker. "

Never Breathe a Word by Caroline Blackwood Pdf

Though perhaps better known for her tumultuous marriages to the painter Lucian Freud and poet Robert Lowell, Caroline Blackwood remains a woman whose formidable intellect and artistry indelibly marked every person she met and every sentence she crafted. When he interviewed her a year before her death in 1996, The New York Times chief art critic, Michael Kimmelman, called Blackwood a “strangely dramatic woman: intense and vulnerable, with . . . a dark, razor-sharp sense of humor and an offbeat sensibility.” The same can be said of the mostly female, and often troubled, characters in the stories of this startling new collection. Selections span the entirety of her career, from her first book, For All That I Found There, to Good Night Sweet Ladies, one of her last. The seven evocative nonfiction vignettes draw directly from Blackwood’s fascinating life, from her early difficult years through her days as a quintessential bohemian. Three entirely unpublished stories are included in the collection.
