queen soraya her divorce destroyed a dynasty george mackay brown

Soraya Bakhtiari was born in Isfahan in 1932 to a German Protestant mother and Iranian Muslim father. After schooling in Iran and Switzerland, she was a student in London when, aged eighteen, she married the Shah of Iran in 1951. Three months later, a revolution headed by Prime Minister Mosaddeq to nationalise the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company was defeated in a coup d''état organised by the American CIA. Soraya’s success as Empress – creating sanatoriums, a special women’s and children’s hospital in Tehran, a girls’ summer school on the Caspian Sea, evening literacy classes, and a publishing house translating classic books into Farsi, resulted in her becoming the most popular member of the royal family. The Shah, his mother and sisters bitterly resented having to play second fiddle. However, not having conceived an heir in seven years became the basis for a bitter divorce. The Shah failed to persuade Soraya he should take a second wife. He publicly blamed her for their breakup. Underestimating her popularity, the decline in the Shah’s reputation began. Subsequent mistakes made during his rule accumulated over the years until a demonstration of over six million people protesting against his regime forced him into exile.

But its echoes sound on unforgettably. A whole universe is created from a grain of Orkney sand'' IndependentIn this novel set on the fictitious island of Norday in the Orkneys, George Mackay Brown beckons us into the imaginary world of the young Thorfinn Ragnarson, the son of a crofter. In his day-dreams he relives the history of this island people, travelling back in time to join Viking adventurers at the court of the Byzantine Emperor in Constantinople, then accompanying a Falstaffian knight to the battle of Bannockburn.Thorfinn wakes to the twentieth century and a community whose way of life, steeped in legend and tradition, has remained unchanged for centuries. But as the boy grows up - and falls in love with a vivacious and mysterious stranger - the transforming effect of modern civilization brings momentous and irreversible changes to the island.

This beautiful volume of winter and Christmas-themed verses will be a hugely welcome addition to the George Mackay Brown canon. The poet and novelist lived and worked all his life in Stromness on Orkney: the islands being the sole inspiration for the huge and immensely rich body of work that he left behind at his death in 1997. Many of Mackay Brown''s poems are set in the winter months and we have made here a selection of some of the most evocative. Seamus Heaney wrote of him: ''George Mackay Brown has added uniquely and steadfastly to the riches of poetry in English: his sense of the world and his way with words are powerfully at one with each other. The book has Orcadian woodcuts by the artist Kath Littler, including a cover illustration ''Hoy Hare''.

Zadumaně krásné Orkneje u břehů Skotska představují "ostrovy plovoucí k severu" a jejich zneuctěný aristokrat ducha Magnus Erlendson se na nich konečně dočkal statutu svatého mučedníka a patrona. George Mackay Brown převyprávěl ságu o tomto středověkém šlechtici - mimo jiné figurujícím ve folkloru této výspy Evropy jako nemrtvý přízrak - s odvahou, jež se směle měří se zanícenými výkony dávných bardů s harfou. Zásluhou magického realismu čechraného skoupým slunkem, všudypřítomnou slanou vodou i úklady starými jako lidstvo samo zjišťujeme, že dvanácté století nebylo na Orknejích ani pod nadvládou Norů zdaleka pouze "temné", neboť vše se tak jako tak vrací v kruzích a nad zbídačelým krajem znovu zavládne světlo. Vroucná báj o narození, prozření, smrti a zmrtvýchvstání krajana-mírotvorce vede k docenění rodné země: pravlasti dobra i všeho vnitřního utrpení, kterého hrouda pod našima nohama poznala daleko víc, než každý z nás v životě zjistí.

George Mackay Brown was one of Scotland''s greatest twentieth-century writers, but in person a bundle of paradoxes. He had a wide international reputation, but hardly left his native Orkney. A prolific poet, admired by such fellow poets as Seamus Heaney, Ted Hughes and Charles Causley, and hailed by the composer Peter Maxwell Davies as ''the most positive and benign influence ever on my own efforts at creation'', he was also an accomplished novelist (shortlisted for the 1994 Booker Prize for Beside the Ocean of Time) and a master of the short story. When he died in 1996, he left behind an autobiography as deft as it is ultimately uninformative. ''The lives of artists are as boring and also as uniquely fascinating as any or every other life,'' he claimed. Never a recluse, he appeared open to his friends, but probably revealed more of himself in his voluminous correspondence with strangers. He never married - indeed he once wrote, ''I have never been in love in my life.'' But some of his most poignant letters and poems were written to Stella Cartwright, ''the Muse of Rose Street'', the gifted but tragic figure to whom he was once engaged and with whom ...

The legendary poet of the Orkneys - who later became one of Scotland''s most loved C20th poets - George Mackay Brown: this is his first published book of poems, here reissued with a new introduction by Kathleen Jamie and illustrations by Julia Sorrell. George Mackay Brown was born in Stromness, Orkney, on 17 October 1921. He died there in 1996. His many awards include a Society of Authors Travel Award, 1968; SAC Literature Prize, 1969; Katherine Mansfield Menton Short Story Prize, 1971; Hon. LLD from Dundee University, 1977; OBE, 1974; James Tait Black Memorial Prize 1987 (for The Golden Bird). He was nominated for the Booker Prize in 1994 for his novel Beside the Ocean of Time.

George’s memory is inseparable from Orkney, where he was born the youngest child of a poor family and which he rarely left. His mother was a beautiful woman who spoke only Gaelic and his father was a wit, mimic and singer, who also doubled as postman and tailor. Tuberculosis framed George’s early life and kept him in a kind of limbo. He discovered alcohol which gave him insights into the workings of the mind. While attending the University of Edinburgh he came into contact with Goodsir Smith, MacDiarmid and Norman MacCaig – and Stella Cartwright with whom perhaps all of them were in love. By the time of his death in 1996 he was recognised as one of the great writers of his time and country.

With her customary grace, intelligence and wit, Barbara Brown Taylor wonders why science and faith have become polarized in the popular imagination. She explores what quantum physics, the new biology and chaos theory can teach people of faith and why scientists sound like poets and why physicists use the language of imagination, ambiguity, and mystery that is also found in scripture.In explaining why the church should care about the new insights of science, Taylor suggests ways we might close the gap between spirit and matter, between the sacred and the secular, and celebrate our shared life in the “web of creation” where nothing is without consequence, where all things coexist, where faith and science together seek to discover the same truths about the universe.

I felt that Mary was there, pulling at my sleeve, willing me to appreciate the artistry, wanting me to understand the dazzle of the material world that shaped her. At her execution Mary, Queen of Scots wore red. Widely known as the colour of strength and passion, it was in fact worn by Mary as the Catholic symbol of martyrdom. In sixteenth-century Europe women's voices were suppressed and silenced. Even for a queen like Mary, her prime duty was to bear sons. In an age when textiles expressed power, Mary exploited them to emphasise her female agency. From her lavishly embroidered gowns as the prospective wife of the French Dauphin to the fashion dolls she used to encourage a Marian style at the Scottish court and the subversive messages she embroidered in captivity for her supporters, Mary used textiles to advance her political agenda, affirm her royal lineage and tell her own story. In this eloquent cultural biography, Clare Hunter exquisitely blends history, politics and memoir to tell the story of a queen in her own voice.

In asking his readers to pardon Alice for her transgression of the Victorian moral code, Trollope created a telling and wide-ranging account of the social world of his day.In his introduction, Stephen Wall examines Trollope''s skill in depicting the strengths and weaknesses of his characters, their behaviour and inner lives. This edition also includes notes and a bibliography.Anthony Trollope (1815-82) had an unhappy childhood characterised by a stark contrast between his family''s high social standing and their ...
