Excerpt from Wind Tossed Leaves: Reclaimed The illustriouswriter, whose frequent ponderosity of style one of the authors of the Rejected Addresses saucily parodied, - partly in the words above quoted - illustrated his idea of truthfulness by the example of a man passing by an orchard, and telling his friends no fruit was to be found there; whereupon some meddlesome fellow within hearing gets through the hedge; and after poking about for some tune discovers two apples and a pear. This paltry circumstance, the learned Doctor declared, could not fairly be used as an argument to prove the first speaker unworthy of belief. Adopting this construction of fact in its liberal meaning, the few sheets following may be said to consist of reprints, from a variety of subjects, issued at different times; chiefly through the journalistic press, and partly for the following reason. Being averse to letter writing, especially when having very little or nothing to say, the author prefers forwarding, instead of an epistolary communication, a newspaper from time to time to his friends distant in the United Kingdom or abroad; and which, as containing some contribution of his own, they are kindly willing to accept in a spirit kindred to that with which it is sent.

These two volumes list late-and mid-Victorian poets, with brief biographical information and bibliographical details of published works. The major strength of the works is the 'discovery' of very many minor poets and their work, unrecorded elsewhere.

Catherine of Siena (1347–1380) wrote almost four hundred epistles in her lifetime, effectively insinuating herself into the literary, political, and theological debates of her day. At the same time, as the daughter of a Sienese dyer, Catherine had no formal education, and her accomplishments were considered miracles rather than the work of her own hand. As a result, she has been largely excluded from accounts of the development of European humanism and the language and literature of Italy. Reclaiming Catherine ofSiena makes the case for considering Catherine alongside literary giants such as Dante and Petrarch, as it underscores Catherine's commitment to using the vernacular to manifest Christ's message—and her own. Jane Tylus charts here the contested struggles of scholars over the centuries to situate Catherine in the history of Italian culture in early modernity. But she mainly focuses on Catherine’s works, calling attention to the interplay between orality and textuality in the letters and demonstrating why it was so important for Catherine to envision herself as a writer. Tylus argues for a reevalution of Catherine as not just a medieval saint, but one of the major figures at the birth of the Italian literary canon.

Sometimes love waits a world away, and happiness must be fought for. In the year 1811, impassable barriers separate the world of carriages, battles and bonnets from the world of witches, goblins and fae. Until the Solstice comes. Then the walls fall, and anyone may pass out of England and into Aylfenhame… Three courageous heroines will take that step. Sophy Landon, impoverished and alone; Isabel Ellerby, trapped by the prospect of an unwelcome marriage; and Bessie Bell, a mistreated housemaid. But courage brings its own rewards. Curses, betrayals and a dark history may wait in the realm of the fae, but so do adventure, and magic, and dreams. And for those with heart enough, true love. These are stories of escape, of freedom, of joy snatched from the jaws of despair. They're stories of the road to happiness, winding though it may be. Of a brightness in the sky on the darkest of days, and above all: of love, and its power to change everything. This compendium contains three blissful novels of love, magic and adventure: Miss Landon and Aubranael, Miss Ellerby and the Ferryman, and Bessie Bell and the Goblin King.

The Lincolnshire Wolds, 1812. When housemaid Bessie Bell is thrown out into a cold October night, her prospects could scarcely seem worse. With nowhere to go and no one to help her, how will she survive? But on the road she meets a mysterious gentleman, and her fortunes take an immediate turn for the… strange. For the nightmare horse Tatterfoal stalks the fog-drenched Wolds, and Mr. Green is determined to catch him. But why? Caught up in a dark adventure, Bessie is swept far beyond the shores of England and into Faerie Aylfenhame. Dangers untold await the unwary in the Goblinlands, though the greatest dangers of all may lie right behind her. For Tatterfoal answers only to his master, the Goblin King… From the author of The Malykant Mysteries comes a darkly delicious tale of love, magic and fairytale adventure.
