The use of school life as a closed narrative environment is well documented, and modern examples such as Malory Towers and Harry Potter show the genre s continued appeal. While there have been several histories of the school story, especially in children s literature, almost all of them take as their starting point Tom Brown s Schooldays. Although occasionally acknowledged in passing, there has never been a complete study of earlier school stories, or of other fictional portrayals of school life before the middle of the eighteenth century. In Before Tom Brown, Robert Kirkpatrick traces the roots of the school story back to 2500BC, when school life was a feature of Sumerian, Egyptian and Graeco-Roman texts written as teaching aids for children. From Chaucer s Canterbury Tales to Shakesperean comedies, he explores for the first time the use of school dialogues in the classroom, in print and on stage, and presents new evidence that the first school novel appeared in 1607. Finally, he examines the role of the school story in the broader development of the novel as the genre became established through the eighteenth century. Readers will be rewarded with a whole new perspective on the history of children s literature.

Lively and mischievous, idle and brave, Tom Brown is both the typical boy of his time and the perennial hero celebrated by authors as diverse as Henry Fielding (in Tom Jones) and Alec Waugh (in The Loom of Youth).The book describes Tom s time at Rugby School from his first football match, through his troubled adolescence when he is savagely bullied by the unspeakable Flashman, to his departure for a wider world as a confident young man. This classic tale of a boy s schooldays under the benevolent eye of the renowned Dr Arnold still retains the appeal for which it was acclaimed on its first publication in 1857.In its less well-known sequel, Tom Brown at Oxford, we follow our hero to St Ambrose s College, and, in sharing his undergraduate experiences, gain a vivid impression of university life in the mid nineteenth century.

A classic of Victorian literature, and one of the earliest books written specifically for boys, Tom Brown s Schooldays has long had an influence well beyond the middle-class, public school world that it describes. An active social reformer, Hughes wrote with a freshness, a lack of cant, and a kind, relaxed tolerance which keeps this novel refreshingly distinct from other schoolboy adventures. This edition is the only one available, and comes with the outstanding 1869 illustrations by Arthur Hughes. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World s Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford s commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

Following on from the seminal book The Early Career Framework: Origins, Outcomes and Opportunities (2022) edited by Tanya Ovenden-Hope, this new book written by Tanya Ovenden-Hope and Holly Kirkpatrick explores the expectations set by the Teacher Recruitment and Retention Strategy (2019) and insights into the experiences of those closest to the ECF. Ovenden-Hope and Kirkpatrick examine the golden thread of teacher training and professional development since 2019, focusing on the lived experiences of ECTs and mentors in Year Two of the ECF, and offering provocations to understand the successes and failures that led to a revised framework of training and development with the ITTECF. ECT attrition remains high in England with one quarter leaving teaching within three years. As a strategy for teacher recruitment and the retention, it will be interesting to see if the ITTECF does better than its predecessor frameworks.

Learning from Las Vegas created a healthy controversy on its appearance in 1972, calling for architects to be more receptive to the tastes and values of common people and less immodest in their erections of heroic, self-aggrandizing monuments. This revision includes the full texts of Part I of the original, on the Las Vegas strip, and Part II, Ugly and Ordinary Architecture, or the Decorated Shed, a generalization from the findings of the first part on symbolism in architecture and the iconography of urban sprawl. (The final part of the first edition, on the architectural work of the firm Venturi and Rauch, is not included in the revision.) The new paperback edition has a smaller format, fewer pictures, and a considerably lower price than the original. There are an added preface by Scott Brown and a bibliography of writings by the members of Venturi and Rauch and about the firm s work.

Nové CD album Robert Křesťan Druhá tráva - Díl první (2021) - Přední česká nadžánrová kapela Druhá tráva vydává po dlouhých devíti letech nové řadové album. Desetipísňová kolekce nazvaná jednoduše Díl první je součástí dvojalbového projektu, jehož druhá část vyjde příští rok, kdy skupina oslaví 30 let na scéně. Na aktuální nahrávce Druhá tráva přirozeně mixuje svůj autorský materiál s převzatými skladbami. Ty do češtiny přebásnil frontman kapely Robert Křesťan.

Robert Shaw unforgettably commanded attention as the weathered seaman Captain Quint in the blockbuster sensation, Jaws. But what came before and after that landmark film is as dramatic as the hunt for the great white shark itself. Capturing the many facets of the vibrant, generous, and sometimes polarizing man is his nephew, Christopher, who explores the forces that shaped a dynamic personality-including Robert s indomitable mother, his deeply troubled father, and his activist sister, Joanna, with whom Robert shared an unbreakable bond. Out of the traumatic events of their childhood in the Orkney Islands and Cornwall, Mrs. Shaw pushed her children to pursue their dreams. For Robert, that dream was acting and writing. Despite a storied career on the British and American stage-as both performer and playwright-and a string of hit films including From Russia with Love, A Man for All Seasons, The Sting, and The Taking of Pelham One Two Three, international celebrity eluded Robert... until he was summoned to star in a little horror film called Jaws. What happened on-screen was unforgettable. What happened off-screen was chaos. Now Christopher Shaw Myers reveals the true story of the making of the classic. Jaws would become both an artistic success and a worldwide triumph for Robert Shaw. Tragically, for a man shadowed by his father s demons, it would also signal the beginning of the end. Drawing on family recollections, personal letters, scrapbooks, recordings, extensive interviews, and a lifetime of his own memories, Christopher paints a unique, intimate, and honest portrait of a man he was proud to call his uncle.

Audiokniha: Komentář k původní LP 1 18 2363 z roku 1978: V roce 1845 napsal Robert Browning, tehdy ještě málo známý anglický básník, mnohými považovaný za stěží srozumitelného excentrika, dopis slečně Elizabeth Barrettové, tehdy již proslulé básnířce, jejíž verše se těšily značné popularitě. V dopise ji poděkoval za to, že ve své poslední sbírce citovala s porozuměním jeho verše, a zároveň vyjádřil svůj obdiv k její poezii. Důvodem k napsání dopisu bylo v neposlední řadě i básníkovo dobré srdce - o slečně Barrettové se vědělo, že je vážně nemocná a nikdy neopouští svůj pokoj. Tento dopis, na který Elizabeth Barrettová odpověděla, měl pro život obou korespondentů dalekosáhlé následky. Začali si psát pravidelně - málo sdílný a velmi rezervovaný básník nalezl konečně někoho, komu se mohl svěřovat se svými plány, myšlenkami a záměry, a chorobně plachá žena, která se s výjimkou své rodiny stýkala se světem jen prostřednictvím korespondence, přemohla svůj ostych natolik, že o půl roku později povolila svému příteli z dopisů první návštěvu. Psali si téměř každý den po dobu půldruhého roku a napsali mimoděk (na 1200 stranách) příběh vlastní lásky, o které do poslední chvíle nevěděli, jak skončí. Bylo třeba nejdříve překonat úzkosti a obavy nemocné ženy, o šest let starší než Browning, že svým spojením s milovaným mužem přinese do jeho života jen zármutek a starosti, a také vyrovnat se s nepřekonatelným odporem jejího podivínského otce, který tvrdě požadoval, aby žádné z jeho jedenácti dospělých dětí neuzavíralo sňatek. Nakonec se musela dát Elizabeth Baarrettová s Browningem tajně oddat a odjela s ním do Itálie. Usadili se nejdříve v Pise a později ve Florencii, kde se jim narodil syn Robert Wiedermann, později známý malíř. V Itálii strávili patnáct let svého manželství, až do smrti E. B. Browningové, která zemřela ve Florencii v roce 1861. Robert Browning měl v době, kdy napsal první dopis E. Barrettové, za sebou vydání dramatické básně Paracelsus, básnický epos Sordello a první malé svazečky pásma lyrické a epické poezie, které nazval Zvonky a granátová jablka. Byla v nich jedna z jeho nejlepších básní Pippa jde mimo. Za svého pobytu v Itálii vytvořil řadu dramatických monologů, které vydal v obsáhlé sbírce Muži a ženy. Po smrti E. B. Browningové se usadil znovu v Londýně, aby poskytl synovi anglickou výchovu. Ještě za pobytu v Itálii ho zaujala drobná knížka líčící kdysi proslavený hrdelní proces a osudy jeho protagonistů. Browning zachytil průběh této hrdelní pře ve směle koncipované básni o 20 000 veršů, kterou nazval Prsten a kniha. Současníci, kritici, i čtenáři vytýkali dlouho jeho poezii přílišnou složitost, nesrozumitelnost, přetíženost historickými narážkami a metaforami. Nakonec jej však přece uznání neminulo. Po souborném vydání proslulost jeho díla časem vzrůstala (dožil se 82 let) a vyvrcholila založením Browningovské společnosti, jejímiž členy se stala řada jeho vynikajících současníků. Z díla E. B. Browninové přetrvává dosud rozsáhlý epos Aurora Leigh. Dějovou osnovou je velmi poplatný své době, ale jeho jádro tvoří již moderní svár mezi přáním ženy stát se pomocí své práce samostatnou ucelenou osobností a její touhou najít životní naplnění v lásce k milovanému muži. Nejvíce čteno a vydáváno je však oněch 44 dokonalých milostných sonetů - jak je nazval R. M. Rilke -, které vznikaly téměř souběžně s její korespondencí s Robertem Browningem a pod názvem Portugalské sonety jsou známy milovníkům poezie na celém světě. Korespondence Roberta Browninga a E. B. Barrettové vyšla v obsáhlém výboru v nakladatelství Odeon pod názvem Milý pane Browningu. Tyto dopisy, které si vyměnili v období let 1845 a 1846, tvoří zákonitou část literárního odkazu obou básníků. S niternou naléhavostí a vůlí k pravdě je v nich zachyceno v co věřili, doufali a co jeden v druhém nalezli. Hana Žantovská Každé zveřejnění soukromé korespondence je záležitostí nejen literární, nýbrž především etickou. Jestliže jsme se rozhodli zařadit korespondenci Elisabeth Barrettové s Robertem Browningem do repertoáru Violy (premiéru měla pod názvem Mé nebe za tvou zem 14. prosince 1973 a těší se dosud zájmu publika), bylo to také proto, že oba básníci se nevyhýbali tématu vzájemného vztahu ani ve svých verších. V nich jej zjevili - především básnířka - už svým současníkům, i když třeba pod průhlednou kamufláží: Elisabet Barrett Browningová nazvala své básně Portugalské sonety a vydávala je za překlad. Autorčiny verše zpětně vyvolaly zájem také o korespondenci. A tu se ukázalo, že milostné sonety slečny Barrettové - jedny z nejkrásnějších milostných sonetů světové poezie - jsou básnickou parafrází jejích dopisů. Z této skutečnosti vychází i náš scénář (jeho původní, dvojnásobná verze připravená pro Violu vznikla ve spolupráci s překladatelkou Hanou Žantovskou, která pro tento účel vybrala a přeložila básně Roberta Browninga). Dopis je proto doplňován, komentován, zobecněn, povýšen ze soukromého sdělení k objektivní hodnotě literární právě vřaz

No poet is more emblematically American than Robert Frost. Hailed as ‘the most eminent, the most distinguished Anglo-American poet’ by T.S. Eliot, he is the only writer in history to have been awarded four Pulitzer Prizes. In iconic poems like ‘Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening’, simple images summon the rural landscape of New England, and Frost unfailingly moves the reader with his profound grasp of the human condition. This is the most comprehensive and authoritative volume of Frost s verse available, comprising all eleven volumes of his poems, meticulously edited by Edward Connery Lathem. Review The most eminent, the most distinguished Anglo-American poet now living (T. S. Eliot) Frost was the first American poet who could honestly be reckoned a master-poet by world standards (Robert Graves) Robert Frost has passed into the poetic pantheon (Independent) Of all the poetry written in our generation, Frost s is most likely to stand the test of time (Lewis Gannett) About the Author Robert Frost was born in San Francisco in 1874. After the death of his father he moved with his mother and sister to Massachusetts. His first collection, A Boy s Will, was published in 1913. In 1924 he won the first of four Pulitzer Prizes for his fourth book, New Hampshire. In the 1930s, as he became ever more revered, he suffered a series of family tragedies: his youngest child Marjorie died in 1934, his wife Elinor in 1938, and his son Carol in 1940. Another daughter, Irma, suffered from mental illness. Frost s last major collection, A Witness Tree (1942), contains a number of poems reflecting these disasters. In 1957 Robert Frost received honorary degrees from the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge. He died in January 1963.

The who, what, where, when and how of human evolution, from one of the world s experts on the dating of prehistoric fossils Steve Brusatte, author of The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs Fascinating and entertaining. If you read one book on human origins, this should be it Ian Morris, author of Why the West Rules - For Now 50,000 years ago, we were not the only species of human in the world. There were at least four others, including the Neanderthals, Homo floresiensis, Homo luzonesis and the Denisovans. At the forefront of the latter s ground-breaking discovery was Oxford Professor Tom Higham. In The World Before Us, he explains the scientific and technological advancements - in radiocarbon dating and ancient DNA, for example - that allowed each of these discoveries to be made, enabling us to be more accurate in our predictions about not just how long ago these other humans lived, but how they lived, interacted and live on in our genes today. This is the story of us, told for the first time with its full cast of characters.

Kniha, ke které mě dlouho přemlouvali moji přátelé i kolegové. „Roberte, proč neuděláš knihu, která by chronologicky, od začátku do konce, rekapitulovala tvůj život?“ ptali se mě a já jsem cítil, že jestli má ta kniha vzniknout, vznikne v ten správný okamžik. „Poslední velká kniha“ Roberta Vana vychází teď. V ten správný okamžik, jak s oblibou fotograf říkává, „mezi třicítkou a smrtí“. Třísetstránková fotografická biografie je inspirovaná životem. Jeho křehkostí, smrtelností a nevyzpytatelností.

Robert the Bruce is a man of both history and legend. In his lifetime he secured Scottish independence in the face of English imperial aggression under the successive leadership of Edward I and Edward II. He was the victor of Bannockburn, a self-made king against all odds, and is celebrated as a champion of the Scottish nation. Yet Robertâ ™s colourful life is far from straightforward. Stephen Spinks seeks to examine this most enigmatic of kings beyond the myths to reveal him in the context of his time, his people and in his actions.Stephen shows that Robert was a complex man, confronted by hardships and difficult and often dangerous decisions. He was not born to rule. As the murderer of John Comyn, a rival for the Scottish crown, Bruce sent shockwaves across Europe and was condemned by kings and popes. In war he suffered terrible personal loss, including the deaths of all four of his brothers and the imprisonment of his wife, daughter and two sisters, all at the hands of the English. He was at times a desperate yet focussed and highly determined man. Robert was also astute, breaking the rules of chivalry to even the odds, systematically fighting a guerrilla war against the English which he ultimately won. Yet he also cultivated the symbols of kingship, was pious, careful with his patronage and fought to uphold his fiercely held beliefs.King Robert unified his deeply divided kingdom and secured its independence from England. His dramatic life as the victorious underdog forged a significant legacy that has survived for 700 years.
