Elizabeth Gaskell’s first novel depicts nothing less than the great clashes between capital and labour, which arose from rapid industrialisation and problems of trade in the mid-nineteenth century. But these clashes are dramatized through personal struggles. John Barton has to reconcile his personal conscience with his socialist duty, risking his life and liberty in the process. His daughter Mary is caught between two lovers, from opposing classes – worker and manufacturer. And at the heart of the narrative lies a murder which implicates them all.Mary Barton was published in 1848, at a time of great social ferment in Europe, and it reflects its revolutionary moment through an English lens. Elizabeth Gaskell wrote her first novel about the world in which she lived – Manchester at the height of the industrial revolution. As the wife of a Unitarian minister she was solidly middle-class; but she also had close contact with the working classes around her, sympathised with them, and represented their extreme distresses in her fiction. She is radical in taking on their dialect, imagining the realities of their lives, and placing a working woman at the centre of her fiction. If to our eyes her vision remains limited, it was an honest vision, for which she was much criticised in her own time, by her own class.

With an Introduction and Notes by Dr Patsy Stoneman, University of Hull.Set in the mid-19th century, and written from the author''s first-hand experience, North and South follows the story of the heroine''s movement from the tranquil but moribund ways of southern England to the vital but turbulent north. Elizabeth Gaskell''s skilful narrative uses an unusual love story to show how personal and public lives were woven together in a newly industrial society.This is a tale of hard-won triumphs - of rational thought over prejudice and of humane care over blind deference to the market. Readers in the twenty-first century will find themselves absorbed as this Victorian novel traces the origins of problems and possibilities which are still challenging a hundred and fifty years later: the complex relationships, public and private, between men and women of different classes.

With an Introduction by David Stuart Davies.''In the great mirror opposite I saw myself, and right behind, another wicked fearful self, so like me my soul seemed to quiver within me, as though not knowing to which similitude of body it belonged''.Elizabeth Gaskell is better known today for her pioneering social novels such as Mary Barton (1848) but she also wrote some fascinating tales of the supernatural and the macabre, which are collected here in this volume. The real charm of this dark anthology is its variety. Unlike so many writers of this kind of material, Gaskell allows the story to fit the style rather than the other way around and as result there is a charming freshness to each tale.This remarkable author uses different voices, tones and topics to engage her readers and as you turn from one story to the next you cannot be quite sure what to expect.

''A man ... is so in the way in the house!''A vivid and affectionate portrait of a provincial town in early Victorian England, Elizabeth Gaskell''s Cranford describes a community dominated by its independent and refined women. Undaunted by poverty, but dismayed by changes brought by the railway and by new commercial practices, the ladies of Cranford respond to disruption with both suspicion and courage. Miss Matty and her sister Deborah uphold standards and survive personal tragedy and everyday dramas; innovation may bring loss, but it also brings growth, and welcome freedoms. Cranford suggests that representatives of different and apparently hostile social worlds, their minds opened by sympathy and suffering, can learn from each other. Its social comedy develops into a study of generous reconciliation, of a kind that will value the past as it actively shapes the future.This edition includes two related short pieces by Gaskell, ''The Last Generation in England'' and ''The Cage at Cranford'', as well as a selection from the diverse literary and social contexts in which the Cranford tales take their place.

With an Introduction and Notes by Professor Emeritus John Chapple, University of Hull.The sheer variety and accomplishment of Elizabeth Gaskell''s shorter fiction is amazing. This new volume contains six of her finest stories that have been selected specifically to demonstrate this, and to trace the development of her art. As diverse in setting as in subject matter, these tales move from the gentle comedy of life in a small English country town in Dr Harrison''s Confessions, to atmospheric horror in far north-west Wales with The Doom of the Griffiths.The story of Cousin Phillis, her masterly tale of love and loss, is a subtle, complex and perceptive analysis of changes in English national life during an industrial age, while the gripping Lois the Witch recreates the terrors of the Salem witchcraft trials in seventeenth-century New England, as Gaskell shrewdly shows the numerous roots of this furious outbreak of delusion. Whimsically modified fairy tales are set in a French chateau, while an engaging love story poetically evokes peasant life in wine-growing Germany.

'How am I to dress up in my finery, and go off and away to smart parties, after the sorrow I have seen today?'When her father leaves the Church in a crisis of conscience, Margaret Hale is uprooted from her comfortable home in Hampshire to move with her family to the north of England.

This is intensified by her tempestuous relationship with the mill-owner and self-made man John Thornton, as their fierce opposition over his treatment of his employees masks a deeper attraction. In North and South, Elizabeth Gaskell skillfully fused individual feeling with social concern, and in Margaret Hale created one of the most original heroines of Victorian literature.In her introduction, Patricia Ingham examines geographical, economic and class differences, and male and female roles in North and South.

The complete edition of Sylvia Plath''s prose including much unpublished and previously uncollected material, edited by Peter K. Steinberg.The Collected Prose stands alongside the Journals (2000) and the two volume Letters (2017 and 2018) to support a more complete understanding of Sylvia Plath’s ambition and achievement as a writer. Expanding on the selection published as Johnny Panic and the Bible of Dreams (1977), this volume draws together all of Sylvia Plath’s shorter prose, much of which is previously uncollected and unpublished. The volume embraces her experiments with the short story and pieces of non-fiction from the 1940s through to her more polished compositions of the fifties and early sixties, including fragments of fiction as well as her journalism and book reviews. Themes and associations become apparent as the volume offers new, intertextual ways of reading across Plath’s oeuvre, colouring and shading our understanding and appreciation of her extraordinary talent.‘To see so much of [Plath’s] surviving fiction and journalism, so many of her essays and reviews, finally published under one cover is to be surprised all over again by the breadth of her vision, ambition and talent . . . A major literary event and an invaluable scholarly resource.’ Heather Clark, TLSFrom reviews of The Letters of Sylvia Plath, Volume I: 1940–1956 and Volume II: 1956–1963:''Sylvia Plath was not only a great poet, she also forged some of the best prose of the twentieth century. . . she wrote letters of extraordinary wit and vivacity. Their publication is a major literary event.'' The Times‘These letters are by turns poignant, revelatory, banal, hilarious and self-absorbed, documenting as they do the changing moods, ambitions and intellectual and creative development of one of the twentieth century’s most celebrated poets.’ Evening Standard‘Such was the impact of [Plath’s] exploration of both inner and outer landscapes in staggeringly intense, brutal and lyrical language that her loss to the literary world has been mourned ever since.’ Financial Times

'There's no mistaking the writing of Sylvia Patterson' Sunday TimesHow does the big stuff in life truly change us? In late 2019, Sylvia Patterson was a celebrated pop journalist, still merrily writing about the musical greats. But with the diagnosis of a life-threatening disease, a global pandemic and the collapse of her industry, life was about to take a drastic turn. It was a misadventure that would teach her many things. The power of friendship, the shock of mortality and what happens when love is tested. How a walk in the park, a spontaneous dance and a TV hero can save your life. How your perspective can shift on everything, from work, family and music, to what truly makes you happy. And what really happens when your body, never mind your kitchen, falls apart. The follow-up to the Costa-shortlisted I'm Not with the Band, this is Sylvia's unflinching, poignant and gallows-funny odyssey through the mid-life trials we all face, as she tries to answer the big question: would it all change her, or would she stay that same old girl?

The electrifying diaries that are essential reading for anyone moved and fascinated by the life and work of one of America''s most acclaimed poets. Sylvia Plath began keeping a diary as a young child. By the time she was at Smith College, when this book begins, she had settled into a nearly daily routine with her journal, which was also a sourcebook for her writing. Plath once called her journal her “Sargasso,” her repository of imagination, “a litany of dreams, directives, and imperatives,” and in fact these pages contain the germs of most of her work. Plath’s ambitions as a writer were urgent and ultimately all-consuming, requiring of her a heat, a fantastic chaos, even a violence that burned straight through her. The intensity of this struggle is rendered in her journal with an unsparing clarity, revealing both the frequent desperation of her situation and the bravery with which she faced down her demons.

The Journals of Sylvia Plath offers an intimate portrait of the author of the extraordinary poems for which Plath is so widely loved, but it is also characterized by a prose of vigorous immediacy which places it alongside The Bell Jar as a work of literature. These exact and complete transcriptions of the journals kept by Plath for the last twelve years of her life - covering her marriage to Ted Hughes and her struggle with depression - are a key source for the poems which make up her collections Ariel and The Colossus.''Everything that passes before her eyes travels down from brain to pen with shattering clarity - 1950s New England, pre-co-ed Cambridge, pre-mass tourism Benidorm, where she and Hughes honeymooned, the birth of her son Nicholas in Devon in 1962. These and other passages are so graphic that you look up from the page surprised to find yourself back in the here and now . . . The struggle of self with self makes the Journals compelling and unique.'' John Carey, Sunday Times

Elizabeth Taylor White Diamonds, 30 ml, Toaletní vody pro ženy, Elizabeth Taylor White Diamonds je překrásná vůně pro vyzrálé ženy. Řadí se mezi květinové vůně s jemným dřevitým základem. Hodí se pro slavnostní události, ale unosíte ji i během všedních dní, když se potřebujete cítit luxusně a elegantně. Úvod je trochu ostřejší, později se však rozvoní a poskytne vám příjemný nádech květin a vzácného dřeva. Zářivá hvězda minulého století vytvořila tuto směsici ženského šarmu, noblesy a krásy, aby potěšila všechny vyspělé ženy, které již nějakou dobu vědí, co od života chtějí. Parfém White Diamonds, jehož sláva je pověstná i díky tomu, že se dostal do síně slávy nejlepších vůní světa a byl oceněn FIFI, je uložen do jednoduchého flakónu. Jeho oválný tvar perfektně padne do ženské ruky a je ozdoben zlatým víkem, pod kterým se třpytí drobné diamanty. Parfém od Elizabeth Taylor nedostal svůj název jen tak. Má v každém evokovat krásu těchto drahých kamenů a ozdobit každou ženu přinejmenším stejně, jako náhrdelník z bílých diamantů. Výrazný úvod je tvořen amazonskou lilií, aldehydy, působivým neroli a silným bergamotem. V srdci je uložena kytice krásných květin. Můžete přivonět k sladké růži, elegantnímu jasmínu, půvabné tuberóze a svěžímu narcisu. Příjemně chladivý základ obývá santalové dřevo, mošus, dubový mech, intenzivní pačuli a smyslná ambra. Celistvá vůně je dokonalým výrazem luxusu a má také neskonalou výdrž. Elizabeth Taylor byla za své největší slávy považována za prototyp ženskosti a nevšední krásy. Dnes, již bohužel zesnulá herečka, po sobě zanechala spoustu nezapomenutelných odkazů. Mezi nimi je i několik málo vůní, co berou dech. Parfémy Elizabeth Taylor jsou stejné jako ona. Nevšedně krásné, silné a vyvolávající emoce. Vyzkoušejte některý z nich a získejte vnitřní sílu, charisma a neobvyklý vzhled, jako měla skvostná Elizabeth.

A FRESH ACCOUNT OF TWO OF ENGLANDS BEST-KNOWN QUEENS: PERFECT FOR FANS OF WOLF HALL AND SIX THE MUSICAL Readers LOVE Anne Boleyn & Elizabeth I:''A wonderful book and one I''m sure I''ll be reading again'' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐''This really is a triumph! . . . A lucid and fascinating account'' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐''So well written and meticulously researched'' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐*************************Anne Boleyn is a subject of enduring fascination. By far the most famous of Henry VIII''s six wives, she has inspired books, documentaries and films, and is the subject of intense debate even today, almost 500 years after her violent death. For the most part, she is considered in the context of her relationship with Tudor England''s much-married monarch. Dramatic though this story is, of even greater interest - and significance - is the relationship between Anne and her daughter, the future Elizabeth I.Elizabeth was less than three years old when her mother was executed. Given that she could have held precious few memories of Anne, it is often assumed that her mother exerted little influence over her. But this is both inaccurate and misleading. Elizabeth knew that she had to be discreet about Anne, but there is compelling evidence that her mother exerted a profound influence on her character, beliefs and reign. Even during Henry''s lifetime, Elizabeth dared to express her sympathy for her late mother by secretly wearing Anne''s famous ''A'' pendant when she sat for a painting with her father and siblings.Piecing together evidence from original documents and artefacts, this book tells the story of Anne Boleyn''s relationship with, and influence over her daughter Elizabeth. In so doing, it sheds new light on two of the most famous and influential women in history.*****************************Critical acclaim for Anne Boleyn & Elizabeth I:''(A)sensational book by one of our greatest and best-loved historians... Astoundingly good.'' - Alison Weir''Masterful, captivating, page-turning, this is solid gold history at its best.'' - Nicola Tallis''(A) thought-provoking, impeccably researched, and moving account uncovering how Anne''s family, intellect, and tragedy shaped Elizabeth I''s extraordinary career.'' - Gareth Russell''Her extensive research... reveals them as the most dazzling female double act in history.'' - Sarah Gristwood''Incredibly well-researched, elegantly written, and overall genuinely ground-breaking,'' - Estelle Paranque

The story of how Elizabeth II became queen.''Rich with princess anecdotes... Williams''s book weaves the Second World War, vast social change and the royal upheaval of abdication and celebration of coronation into energised, nostalgic storytelling'' SUNDAY TELEGRAPH''Fascinating insights into Elizabeth''s relationship with her sister also make this a worthwhile, enjoyable read'' DAILY TELEGRAPHWe can hardly imagine a Britain without Elizabeth II on the throne. It seems to be the job she was born for. And yet for much of her early life the young princess did not know the role that her future would hold. She was our accidental Queen.As a young girl, Elizabeth was among the guests in Westminster Abbey watching her father being crowned, making her the only monarch to have attended a parent''s coronation. Kate Williams explores the sheltered upbringing of the young princess with a gentle father and domineering mother, her complicated relationship with her sister, Princess Margaret, and her dependence on her nanny, Marion ''Crawfie'' Crawford. She details the profound and devastating impact of the abdication crisis when, at the impressionable age of 11, Elizabeth found her position changed overnight: no longer a minor princess she was now heiress to the throne.Elizabeth''s determination to share in the struggles of her people marked her out from a young age. Her father initially refused to let her volunteer as a nurse during the Blitz, but relented when she was 18 and allowed her to work as a mechanic and truck driver for the Women''s Auxiliary Territorial Service. It was her forward-thinking approach that ensured that her coronation was televised, against the advice of politicians at the time.Kate Williams reveals how the 25-year-old young queen carved out a lasting role for herself amid the changes of the 20th century. Her monarchy would be a very different one to that of her parents and grandparents, and its continuing popularity in the 21st century owes much to the intelligence and elusive personality of this remarkable woman.
