english romantic verse david wright

English Romantic poetry from its beginnings and its flowering to the first signs of its decadence. Nearly all the famous piéces de résistance will be found here - Intimations of Immortality , The Ancient Mariner , The Tyger , excerpts from Don Juan - as well as some less familiar poems. As far as possible the poets are arranged in chronological order, and their poems in order of composition, beginning with eighteenth-century precursors such as Gray, Cowper, Burns and Chatterton. Naturally most space has been given over to the major Romantics - Blake, Wordsworth, Coleridge, Byron, Shelley, Clare and Keats - although their successors, poets such as Beddoes and Poe, are included too, as well as early poems by Tennyson and Browning. In an excellent introduction David Wright discusses the Romantics as a historical phenomenon, and points out their central ideals and themes.

‘An amazing book.’ Dan Lepard‘The rich and fascinating story of bread.’ Lily Vanilli‘A brilliant, timely and important book full of compassion.’ Olia Hercules‘A fascinating exploration of our universal love of bread. David traces the past, present and future of bread through his personal lens as a third generation baker.’ Edd KimberIn Breaking Bread, third generation baker, food writer and presenter David Wright examines the universal questions about bread and baking. About the people who make and shape the bread we buy and the difficulties that social and cultural change, food fads and health directives have had, and are having, on the baking industry. After his family bakery sadly closed its doors after seventy-five years, Wright asks if the the closure of the bakery underlines the very idea that bread is a dying foodstuff. Is bread good or bad? And what does the future hold for bread?Bread is an essential part of our story, our health, our very being. Every civilisation has a form of bread, and how we create, make and bake it, how we sell it and buy it, our food security, our access to it, affects everything: our physical and mental well-being, the ingredients, the seeds, the very earth we grow our grains in, the water we use and how we treat and sustain these natural resources, impact on the very health and future of our planet.Chapters include:1 Why Bread? – Creating, making, baking2: The Wheel of Life – A loaf’s cycle3: Frankenloaf – Science and the perfect loaf4: Sicker by the Slice – A marriage not made in heaven5: Big Bread – Industrial vs artisan bakeries6: The Breadline – The economics of crust7: Flour Power – The politics of bread8: Bloody Bread – The costs of conquest9: Our Daily Bread – What the gods want10: Breaking bread - A once ropey baker looks to the futureBreaking Bread contains interviews and expert contributions from Olia Hercules - Food Writer, Dan Lepard - Baker and Writer, Felicity Spector - Writer and Baker, Kateryna Kalyuzhna – Baker, Brad Leone - Food Personality, Chris Cowie – Philosopher, Zara Mohammed - Religious Leader, William Kendall - Food Producer, Andy Cato/George Lamb – Wildfarmed, Daisy Terry - Dusty Knuckle, Ollie Hornsey-Pennell - Hylsten Bakery, Tim Williams - Regenerative Farmer, Matt Burgess – Chef, Martha Delacey - Teacher and Writer, Karl De Smedt - Sourdough Librarian, Vanessa Kimbell – Baker, Chris Young - Real Bread Campaign, Ben MacKinnon - Baker E5, Ben Glazer - Coombeshead Bakery, Andrew Gilespy - Fresh Flour, OJ Borg - Radio 2 DJ and Presenter, Christopher Tan - Baker and Writer, Martin Bricknell - War Studies Professor KCL, Wing Mon Cheung - Cereal Bakery

Po dvoch rokoch prichádza Dávid Matuš so svojou druhou samostatnou zbierkou. Predstavuje v nej 31 básní, ktoré sú zároveň príbehmi s pútavou fabuláciou, s originálnymi výrazovými prostriedkami a s hlbokou myšlienkou. Pritom sú napísané sviežim, neošúchaným jazykom a veľmi zrozumiteľne. Dávid Matuš, mladý, talentovaný autor vstúpil do sveta poézie nenápadne, ako víťaz literárnej súťaže Andreja Chudobu. Tento rok sa v Prahe stal laureátom súťaže Vyšehradská vize. Podľa básnika Milana Hodála kráča vlastnou cestou, vnímavo pozoruje život a dejov okolo nás. Všetko, čo prežil, nažil a precítil, pretransformoval do svojich básní tak, ako rezbár vrýva do dreva svoje obrazy, aby odolali času. Matušove myšlienky vpísané do veršov majú tendenciu vryť sa do nášho vnútra, vedomia a svedomia. Ladislav Zelinka, básnik a organizátor literárnych súťaží Vyšehradská vize oceňuje, akým poetickým štýlom Dávid Matuš hovorí o láske, stratách, smútku a vždy pritom pripomína, aby sme sa nevzdávali viery, aby sme neopúšťali svoje sny, že vždy je tu nádej.Ani samota, ani slzy by nemali prehlušiť našu túžbu po lepšom svete. Matuš odkrýva svoje city a svoje poznanie sa snaží odovzdať iným. Snažme sa pritiahnuť na zem kúsok z neba, radí a píše v básni Prišiel čas. Láska zatiaľ ešte nezomrela, len treba žiť pre ňu, hovorí v inom krásnom verši. Dávid Matuš vás presvedčí, že vždy má cenu vstať a vykročiť ďalej. Lebo každý má právo na splnené sny...

​The incredible true story of the origin of human flight, by the Pulitzer Prize-winning author David McCullough. On a winter day in 1903, in the Outer Banks of North Carolina, two unknown brothers from Ohio changed history. But it would take the world some time to believe what had happened: the age of flight had begun, with the first heavier-than-air, powered machine carrying a pilot.Who were these men and how was it that they achieved what they did? David McCullough, two-time winner of the Pulitzer Prize, tells the surprising, profoundly human story of Wilbur and Orville Wright. Far more than a couple of unschooled Dayton bicycle mechanics who happened to hit on success, they were men of exceptional courage and determination, and of far-ranging intellectual interests and ceaseless curiosity, much of which they attributed to their upbringing.In this thrilling book, McCullough draws on the immense riches of the Wright Papers, including private diaries, notebooks, scrapbooks and more than a thousand letters from private family correspondence to tell the human side of the Wright Brothers #39; story, including the little-known contributions of their sister, Katharine, without whom things might well have gone differently for them.

Here is a treasure-house of over seven centuries of English poetry, chosen and introduced by Christopher Ricks, whom Auden described as exactly the kind of critic every poet dreams of finding . The Oxford Book of English Verse, created in 1900 by Arthur Quiller-Couch and selected anew in 1972 by Helen Gardner, has established itself as the foremost anthology of English poetry: ample in span, liberal in the kinds of poetry presented. This completely fresh selection brings in new poems and poets from all ages, and extends the range by another half-century, to include many twentieth-century figures not featured before -- among them Philip Larkin and Samuel Beckett, Thom Gunn and Elaine Feinstein -- right up to Ted Hughes and Seamus Heaney. Here, as before, are lyric (beginning with medieval song), satire, hymn, ode, sonnet, elegy, ballad . . . but also kinds of poetry not previously admitted: the riches of dramatic verse by Marlowe, Shakespeare, Jonson, Webster; great works of translation that are themselves true English poetry, such as Chapman s Homer (bringing in its happy wake Keats s On First Looking into Chapman s Homer ), Dryden s Juvenal, and many others; well-loved nursery rhymes, limericks, even clerihews. English poetry from all parts of the British Isles is firmly represented -- Henryson and MacDiarmid, for example, now join Dunbar and Burns from Scotland; James Henry, Austin Clarke, and J. M. Synge now join Allingham and Yeats from Ireland; R. S. Thomas joins Dylan Thomas from Wales -- and Edward Taylor and Anne Bradstreet, writing in America before its independence in the 1770s, are given a rightful and rewarding place. Some of the greatest long poems are here in their entirety -- Wordsworth s Tintern Abbey , Coleridge s Rime of the Ancient Mariner , and Christina Rossetti s Goblin Market -- alongside some of the shortest, haikus, squibs, and epigrams. Generous and wide-ranging, mixing familiar with fresh delights, this is an anthology to move and delight all who find themselves loving English verse.

In Romantic English Homes, Robert O Byrne has gathered together a collection of some of England’s most glorious abodes, from venerable country houses to a thatched farmhouse to an enchanting Gothick folly. Ever since the English aristocracy embarked on the Grand Tour in the seventeenth century, a passion for collecting has become a national trait. This is reflected not only in England’s aristocratic palaces and ancient manors, but in more modest residences, too. Romantic English Homes features 14 such homes. Large or small, old or new, they all exude typical English style: massed objects intentionally mingling a variety of styles and tastes, with the classical placed next to the gothic, and plaid checks alongside floral prints. Criss-crossing the country, from Dorset, Devon, and Cornwall to East Anglia and Suffolk, from London to Staffordshire and Northumberland, it is both the romantic timelessness of these properties and their comfortable, many-layered appearance that makes them so alluring and romantic to modern eyes.

The Real and the RomanticThe devastation of World War I left the art world decentered and directionless. This book is about its recovery. Spalding explores how exciting new ideas coexisted with a desire for continuity and a renewed interest in the past. We see the challenge to English artists represented by Paul Cézanne and Pablo Picasso, and the role played by museums and galleries in this period. Women artists, writers, and curators contributed to the emergence of a new avant-garde. The English landscape was revisited in modern terms.The 1930s marked a high point in the history of modernism in Britain, but the mood darkened with the prospect of a return to war. The former advance toward abstraction and internationalism was replaced by a renewed concern with history, place, memory, and a sense of belonging. Native traditions were revived in modern terms but in ways that also let in the past. Surrealism further disturbed the ascetic purity of high modernism and fed into the British love of the strange.Throughout these years, the pursuit of “the real” was set against, and sometimes merged with, an inclination towards the “romantic,” as English artists sought to respond to their subjects and their times.

Acclaimed as the “father of skyscrapers”, the quintessentially American icon Frank Lloyd Wright (1867–1959) was an architect of aspiration. He believed in giving cultivated American life its fitting architectural equivalent and applied his idealism to structures across the continent, from suburban homes to churches, offices, skyscrapers, and the celebrated Guggenheim Museum. Wright’s work is distinguished by its harmony with humanity and its environment, a philosophy he called organic architecture, and which found its paradigm at Fallingwater, a house in rural Pennsylvania, cited by the American Institute of Architects as “the best all-time work of American architecture”. Wright also made a particular mark with his use of industrial materials, and by the simple L or T plan of his Prairie House which became a model for rural architecture across America. Wright was also often involved in many of the interior elements of his buildings, such as the furniture and stained glass, paying particular attention to the balance between individual needs and community activity. Exploring Wright’s aspirations to augment American society through architecture, this book offers a concise introduction to his at once technological and Romantic response to the practical challenges of middle-class Americans. The author Bruce Brooks Pfeiffer became Frank Lloyd Wright’s apprentice at the Taliesin Fellowship in 1949. In 1957, he attended the Ecole Nationale des Beaux-Arts in Paris, returning in 1958 to continue his apprenticeship with Wright until his death in 1959. He remains at Taliesin to this day, as director of the Frank Lloyd Wright Archives, a vice-president of the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation, and author of numerous publications on Wright s life and work. The editor Peter Gössel runs an agency for museum and exhibition design. He has published TASCHEN monographs on Julius Shulman, R. M. Schindler, John Lautner, and Richard Neutra as well as several architecture titles in the Basic Art Series.

Radujem sa zo slovenského vydania knihy AKO SA BOH STAL KRÁĽOM. Teším sa, že po knihe Prekvapení nádejou sa toto dielo dostáva na Slovensko.Táto kniha je o tom, ako sme nepochopili evanjeliá. Buď sme sa nechali zlákať jasnými odkazmi vyznaní viery a zabudli sme na veľký príbeh Izraela a Božieho kráľovstva, alebo sme sa nadchli kráľovstvom, ktoré vyjadruje Božiu vášeň pre nápravu sveta, no nedali sme ho do súladu s vtelením a smrťou Božieho syna. Božie kráľovstvo a Ježišovo ukrižovanie - tieto dve témy sú v evanjeliách úplne prepletené, ale ich spojenie nám akosi nejde.Jadrom posolstva evanjelií je príbeh, AKO SA BOH STAL KRÁĽOM - teda niečo, čo Boh už urobil a dosiahol skrze Ježiša. Boh preto dokončí svoj zámer, ako zasľúbil, a naplní svet svojou láskou a slávou. Takáto vízia má potenciál dodať odhodlanie pre prácu evanjelia novej generácii. Mojou nádejou a modlitbou je, aby k tomu táto kniha prispela aj na Slovensku.Tom Wright Neviem o nikom inom, kto by lepšie prenášal múdrosť historického kresťanstva do dnešnej doby ako N. T.

Packer, profesor teológie na Regent College vo Vancouveri a známy autor N. T. Wright (1948) je popredný novozmluvný teológ a svetový odborník na dejiny raného kresťanstva. V súčasnosti pôsobí ako profesor Novej zmluvy a raného kresťanstva na Teologickej fakulte Univerzity St. Andrews v Škótsku. Tom Wright v minulosti slúžil ako biskup diecézy Anglikánskej cirkvi v Durhame a pôsobil na význačných univerzitách v Oxforde, Cambridgi, McGille v Toronte a iných. Napísal viac ako 35 odborných a populárnych kníh a okrem knihy Ako sa Boh stal kráľom vyšli v slovenskom preklade aj jeho knihy Prekvapení nádejou a Jednoducho kresťan. V edícii životopisov velikánov kresťanského myslenia z dielne Porta libri vyjde v roku 2020 aj Wrightov obsiahly životopis PAVOL, v ktorom zhrnul svoj celoživotný výskum apoštola Pavla a jeho teológie. N. T. Wright svojím vplyvom ďaleko prekročil hranice vlastnej anglikánskej tradície a jeho dielo s veľkým záujmom čítajú ľudia z protestantského aj katolíckeho prostredia.

Artist Daphne Wright is fascinated with the collections of the Ashmolean Museum and the history of seeing they present. Her latest project grows out of a lifetimeâ ™s engagement with this theme. Much of Wrightâ ™s existing body of work is steeped in a deep understanding of the iconography and history of Western art, as represented in the Ashmoleanâ ™s extensive collection. This book establishes connections to the Ashmoleanâ ™s rich collection of 17th century Dutch Still Life paintings. These genre paintings portray a range of subjects from arrangements of flowers to fruit, fish and game. Sometimes the paintings include a symbolic reference to the transience of life, in the form of fruit that has begun to rot or flowers that are losing petals. In Fridge Still Life, the exposed body of a fridge, containing upon its shelves a raw chicken and bundle of asparagus, is topped with a vase of wilting tulips. This is a contemporary re-telling of a still life painting, with its various familiar elements, such as a brace of hanging pheasants, a bowl of fruit and a vase of blooms, with can connote status or vanitas. Wright has explored the transitory nature of life throughout her practice. In previous work, Wright has used plants and animals, with their shorter life spans, to stand in for the human. Wrightâ ™s work also resonates strongly with the Ashmoleanâ ™s extensive and celebrated cast collection. Prominent amongst the plaster casts of Greek and Roman sculptures are the gods and heroes of Homeric legend. These idealised images of men still form the basis of our ideas of masculinity today. With Sons on Couch Wright is seeking to capture the elusive moment of transition into manhood. The athletic figures in the cast court may have been updated to social media influencers, but the pressure young men face today to achieve a perceived ideal body type remain the same.

From one of America’s most brilliant writers, a New York Times bestselling journey through psychology, philosophy, and lots of meditation to show how Buddhism holds the key to moral clarity and enduring happiness.At the heart of Buddhism is a simple claim: The reason we suffer—and the reason we make other people suffer—is that we don’t see the world clearly. At the heart of Buddhist meditative practice is a radical promise: We can learn to see the world, including ourselves, more clearly and so gain a deep and morally valid happiness. In this “sublime” (The New Yorker), pathbreaking book, Robert Wright shows how taking this promise seriously can change your life—how it can loosen the grip of anxiety, regret, and hatred, and how it can deepen your appreciation of beauty and of other people. He also shows why this transformation works, drawing on the latest in neuroscience and psychology, and armed with an acute understanding of human evolution. This book is the culmination of a personal journey that began with Wright’s landmark book on evolutionary psychology, The Moral Animal, and deepened as he immersed himself in meditative practice and conversed with some of the world’s most skilled meditators. The result is a story that is “provocative, informative and...deeply rewarding” (The New York Times Book Review), and as entertaining as it is illuminating. Written with the wit, clarity, and grace for which Wright is famous, Why Buddhism Is True lays the foundation for a spiritual life in a secular age and shows how, in a time of technological distraction and social division, we can save ourselves from ourselves, both as individuals and as a species.

In this thoughtful follow-up to Simply Christian, today’s leading Bible scholar, Anglican bishop, and acclaimed author uses the Gospel of John to reveal how Christianity presents a compelling and relevant explanation for our world.N. T. Wright argues that every world view must explain seven “signposts,” indicators inherent to humanity: Justice, Spirituality, Relationships, Beauty, Freedom, Truth, and Power. If we do not live up to these ideals, our societies and individual lives become unbalanced, creating anger and frustration—negative emotions that divide us from ourselves and from God, he contends. Using the Gospel of John as his source, Wright shows how Christianity defines each signpost and illuminates why we so often see them as being broken and unattainable. Drawing on the wisdom of the Gospels, Wright explains why these signposts are fractured and damaged and how Christianity provides the vision, guidance, and hope for making them whole once again, ultimately healing ourselves and our world.

Exams, grades, league tables, Ofsted reports. All of them miss the point of school and together they are undermining our whole approach to education. An essential read – as entertaining as it is insightful – for anyone who cares about the way we treat young people ObserverWhat is school for? Drawing on his twenty years as a teacher, hundreds of interviews and his experience on the UK Government s Social Mobility Commission, head teacher Sammy Wright exposes the fundamental misconception at the heart of our education system. By focusing on the grades pupils get in neatly siloed, academic subjects, we end up ranking them and our schools into winners and losers: some pupils are set on a trajectory to university - the rest are left ill-equipped for the world they actually face.Wright s entertaining and hugely important book shows that schools are - and should be - so much more than this. With wisdom and humour, balancing idealism and pragmatism, he sets out what a better way would look like and how we might get there.‘Brilliantly illuminates the realities and blindspots of the system’ Jeffrey Boakye‘Deeply absorbing...Wright deserves the highest marks’ Financial Times Such a compelling read, no matter your outlook Telegraph‘Extraordinary and brilliant . . . the book education has been waiting for’ Laura McInerney, co-founder of Teacher Tapp

A trove of insights into and images of an important, little-known Frank Lloyd Wright building  The house that Frank Lloyd Wright designed for Frederick C. and Katherine G. Bogk in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in 1916 occupies a unique position in Wright⠙s career: it is the only fully realized house designed in the teens that demonstrates his fascination with Primitivism, the use of non-Western sources as an inspiration for modern design. This book traces Wright⠙s exploration alongside the stories of an immigrant family⠙s rise and Milwaukee⠙s emergence as a vibrant city. It also documents the interiors, relatively unchanged for over a century, that represent Wright⠙s approach to total design.  Written by two eminent architectural historians and Wright scholars, Anthony Alofsin and Richard L. Cleary, this book offers new insight into the evolution of Wright⠙s design process during the least understood decade of his career. The book draws on a fascinating cache of unpublished letters, photographs, drawings, and documents in the private archive of the Elsner family, who owned the house from 1955 to 2023. The book also features new photography of the Bogk House by Alexander Vertikoff, renowned for his use of natural light.  Distributed for Frank Lloyd Wright⠙s Burnham Block, Inc.

In The Evolution of God, Robert Wright, award-winning author of the bestselling books Nonzero and The Moral Animal, takes us on a sweeping journey through religious history, from the Stone Age to the Information Age, unveiling along the way an astonishing discovery: that there is a hidden pattern in the way that Judaism, Christianity and Islam have all evolved.Through the prisms of archaeology, theology, evolutionary psychology and a careful re-reading of the scriptures, Wright s findings repeatedly overturn conventional wisdom and basic assumptions about the great monotheistic faiths.Looking at the forces that have moved the Abrahamic faiths away from belligerence and intolerance to a higher moral plane, Wright finds that this previously unrecognized evolutionary logic points not toward continued religious extremism as the media would have us believe, but towards future harmony.

Podstata křesťanství (Simply Christian: Why Christianity Makes Sense) Proč toužíme po spravedlnosti? Proč hledáme duchovní rozměr života? Proč nás přitahuje krása? Proč se trápíme ve vztazích? Jak dát svět znovu do pořádku? Podle N. T. Wrighta jsou tyto odvěké otázky ozvěnou hlasu, který tušíme jen mlhavě, ale bytostně toužíme jej zaslechnout. Tyto otázky nás přivádějí k samotné podstatě Boha, jeho charakteru a jeho vůle. Křesťanství na tyto otázky odpovídalo po celá dvě tisíciletí. Přední novozákonní badatel a anglikánský biskup N. T. Wright ukazuje, že na ně může odpovídat i dnes. Podobně jako to učinil v minulé generaci C. S. Lewis ve svém díle K jádru křesťanství, N. T. Wright nyní objasňuje základní obsah křesťanské víry a ukazuje na způsob, jak ji autenticky žít v dnešním světě. Jeho kniha Podstata křesťanství nabízí vysvětlení hledajícím i skeptikům a přináší novou inspiraci i dlouholetým věřícím.

Haunting . . . The writing is often breathtaking, brutality amplified through perfectly crafted prose. The Times Extraordinary . . . Serious history and skillful journalism, but with the nuance and wallop of a finely wrought novel. Washington Post With a passion for truth and justice, and a fierce determination to dig for the secrets, Wright Thompson has produced an incredible history of a crime that changed America. John GrishamHow forces from around the world converged on the Mississippi Delta to bring about the most consequential murder in US history. Emmett Tillâ ™s murder is one of the most infamous in American history; a moment that, more than any other, awakened the world to the racism of the Deep South. Yet despite growing up just a few miles from where it happened, Wright Thompson knew nothing of it until he left Mississippi. This is no accident: the cover-up began at once, and it is ongoing. Over the course of five yearsâ ™ research, Thompson has learnt that almost every part of the standard account of Tillâ ™s killing is wrong. In August 1955, after the two men charged with the murder were acquitted by an all-white jury, they gave a false confession to a journalist: one that was misleading about where the murder took place and who was involved. We now know that at least eight people were present, and many more complicit. And we now know precisely where it took place: inside a barn on a 36-square-mile grid called Township 22 North, Range 4 West. This book tells the story of that barn. It is the story of what really happened on the night of August 28, 1955, and of the individuals who have spent decades bringing the truth to light. And it is the story of the centuries-old forces that made that night inevitable: forces that, over the course of 200 years, transformed Township 22 North, Range 4 West from Choctaw land, to a slave plantation, to a sharecropperâ ™s farm, to the site of the most significant murder in US history. The result is a revelatory work of investigative reportage and a panoramic new history of white supremacy in America. It maps the road that the US â “ and the world â “ must travel to heal its oldest, deepest wound.
