'A compelling literary journey through the social history of wool in the British Isles' Karen Lloyd, author of The Gathering Tide Travel the length of the British Isles with Esther Rutter, as she tells the story of wool's long and tangled history hereEsther Rutter grew up on a sheep farm in Suffolk, and learned to spin, weave and knit as a child. Here she unearths fascinating histories of communities whose lives were shaped by wool, from the mill workers of the Border countries, to the English market towns built on profits of the wool trade, and the Highland communities cleared for sheep farming; and finds tradition and innovation intermingling in today's knitwear industries. Along the way, she explores wool's rich culture by knitting and crafting culturally significant garments from our history - whether gloves, a scarf, a baby blanket, socks or a fisherman's jumper - reminding us of the value of craft and our intimate relationship with wool. This Golden Fleece is at once a celebration on the craft and history of knitting, and a fascinating exploration of wool's influence on our landscape, history and culture.

The Argonautica is the dramatic story of Jason''s quest for the Golden Fleece and his relations with the dangerous Colchian princess, Medea.

Into this golden realm went Father Thomas Stephens, a Catholic fleeing his home; the merchant Ralph Fitch looking for jewels in the markets of Delhi; and John Mildenhall, an adventurer revelling in the highwire politics of the Mughal elite.

As a figurehead for the literary humanities, and a dramatist whose plays feature fairies, ghosts, and spirits, Shakespeare may not be the first author that comes to mind when thinking about science. Tom Rutter shows, however, that in his plays and poetry Shakespeare made detailed use of the knowledge and theories of the cosmos, the natural world, and human biology that were available to him. These range from astronomical and anatomical ideas derived from medieval scholars, Islamic philosophers, and ancient Greek and Roman authorities, through to the challenges issued to those earlier models by more recent figures such as Copernicus and Vesalius. Shakespeare''s treatment of these materials was informed by the poetic and dramatic media in which he worked; the dialogic nature of drama enabled an approach that could be provisional, exploratory, and tolerant of uncertainty and contradiction. Shakespeare made the early modern playhouse a venue for the production of scientific understanding through performance, illusion, and the creative use of space.As well as surveying current scholarship that contextualizes Shakespeare''s work in relation to histories of meteorology, matter theory, humoral physiology, racialization, mathematics, and more, Shakespeare and Science offers detailed original readings of a variety of texts including the Histories, Hamlet, ...

From the New York Times bestselling authors and loving owners of Esther the Wonder Pig, comes a memoir about their new life on the Happily Ever Esther Farm Sanctuary, which is anything but boring. Steve Jenkins and Derek Walter, had their lives turned upside down when they adopted their pig-daughter Esther--the so-called micro pig who turned out to be a full-sized commercial pig growing to a whopping 600 pounds--as they describe in their bestselling memoir Esther the Wonder Pig. The book ends with them moving to a new farm, and starting a new wonderful life where they will live on the Happily Ever Esther Farm Sanctuary to care for other animals and just live happily ever after... Or so they thought. People often think about giving it all up and just moving to a farm. In theory it sure does sound great.

After forty years, John Irving returns to the world of his bestselling classic novel and Academy Award-winning The Cider House Rules, revisiting the orphanage in St. Cloud’s, Maine, where Dr Wilbur Larch takes in Esther, a Viennese-born Jew whose life is shaped by anti-Semitism. Esther Nacht is born in Vienna in 1905. Her father dies on board a ship from Bremerhaven to Portland, Maine, and anti-Semites murder her mother in Portland. In the orphanage at St. Cloud’s, it’s clear to Dr Larch, the physician and director of the orphanage, that the abandoned child not only knows she’s Jewish, but she’s familiar with the biblical Queen Esther she was named for. Dr Larch knows it won’t be easy to find a Jewish family to adopt Esther; he doubts he’ll find any family to adopt her. When Esther is fourteen, soon to become a ward of the state, Dr. Larch meets the Winslows, a philanthropic family with a history of providing for unadopted orphans.

An exploration of how the biblical heroine Queen Esther, a symbol of resilience and a figure of immense popularity, was portrayed in seventeenth-century Dutch art  In the age of Rembrandt van Rijn, the biblical Book of Esther was a popular source of inspiration for diverse communities in the Netherlands, both Jewish and Christian. Traditionally, the Esther story is read annually on the Jewish holiday of Purim. For immigrant Jewish communities living with new freedom in more tolerant Amsterdam, celebrating Purim—notably through finely produced Esther scrolls and theater productions—became a meaningful expression of Jewish culture. For the Dutch, Queen Esther’s heroism came to represent their emerging nation’s identity. Rembrandt and his contemporaries depicted essential scenes of Esther’s story in paintings, prints, drawings, and decorative arts.  Examining how Esther was represented in art and popular culture in Rembrandt’s time, this beautifully illustrated volume includes essays that discuss the visual culture and ceremonial art of Purim and examine the queen’s status as a heroine in seventeenth-century Netherlands. A postscript reveals Esther’s continued appeal through a close look at work by contemporary American artist Fred Wilson, who reimagines the biblical heroine as the abolitionist Harriet Tubman.  Published in association with the ...

Her moving story is set against the backdrop of a world of horse racing, betting, and public houses, whose vivid depiction led James Joyce to call Esther Waters ''the best novel of modern English life''.Controversial and influential on its first appearance in 1894, the book opened up a new direction for the English realist tradition. Unflinching in its depiction of the dark and sordid side of Victorian culture, it remains one of the great novels of London life and labour in the 1890s.ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World''s Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe.

A Spectator 2023 Book of the YearEsther is the most visual book of the Hebrew Bible and was largely crafted in the Fourth Century BCE by an author who was clearly au fait with the rarefied world of the Achaemenid court. It therefore provides an unusual melange of information which can enlighten scholars of Ancient Iranian Studies whilst offering Biblical scholars access into the Persian world from which the text emerged.In this book, Lloyd Llewellyn-Jones unlocks the text of Esther by reading it against the rich iconographic world of ancient Persia and of the Near East. Ancient Persia and the Book of Esther is a cultural and iconographic exploration of an important, but often undervalued, biblical book, and Llewellyn-Jones presents the book of Esther as a rich source for the study of life and thought in the Persian Empire. The author reveals answers to important questions, such as the role of the King’s courtiers in influencing policy, the way concubines at court were recruited, the structure of the harem in shifting the power of royal women, the function of feasting and drinking in the articulation of courtly power, and the meaning of gift-giving and patronage at the Achaemenid court.

While travelling through the Great Alföld, the vast plain in south-eastern Hungary, Esther Kinsky stops in a small town near the Romanian border. Like many other things, the cinema, ‘mozi’ in Hungarian, has long since closed. Entranced by the decaying mozi, she soon embarks on the colossal task of reviving it, compelled by the irresistible magic of the cinema, a site rooted in ritual that is steadily disappearing. Beautifully translated by Caroline Schmidt, Seeing Further is a powerfully eloquent declaration of love to the cinema and the collective experience of watching by Esther Kinsky, one of Germany’s most important contemporary writers.

I ve druhé části volné trilogie španělské spisovatelky Esther Tusquets, kriticky nejvíce oceňovaného a čtenářsky nejoblíbenějšího autorčina díla stojícího na počátku její spisovatelské kariéry, se setkáváme s postavou Elii. Podobně jako v první části, Stejné moře jako každé léto, také zde reflektuje ve způsobu volného nepřerušovaného, až manického toku myšlenek své dětství a svůj současný život. Krásná, elegantní, duchaplná a finančně zajištěná Elia se v útěku před zoufalou nudou svého prázdného života a před spalujícím létem ve městě zaplete do milostného trojúhelníku se dvěma studenty. S nemotorným Ricardem trpícím mindráky z dětství a zakřiknutou Clarou rozehrávají hru na lásku a nelásku, osahávají si své hranice, aby zjistili, kam až jsou ochotni zajít, vzájemně se využívají a zasvěcují, zrcadlí se v sobě a projektují si do sebe svá přání ve snaze se skrze druhého vyléčit ze svých traumat a pocitů ublíženosti. Je možné něčeho dosáhnout pomocí hry, v partii šachů hraných s ďáblem, anebo je lepší řídit se spíše instinkty, jako opičáci v říji putující jarním pralesem za vůní svých družek? Vyhrají pradávné biologické pudy nebo sofistikovaná hra kdo s koho? A není toto uzamčení mezi pouhými dvěma možnostmi vůbec naše prokletí?

Novela španělské spisovatelky Esther Tusquets Stejné moře jako každé léto tvoří první, kriticky nejvíce oceňovanou a čtenářsky nejoblíbenější část volné trilogie, jíž autorka začala svou spisovatelskou kariéru. Vypravěčem částečně autobiografického textu je žena středního věku, profesí vysokoškolská profesorka, která se po vystřízlivění z iluzí a z nespokojenosti nad svým osobním životem navrací do rodného domu, aby se zde pokusila znovu prožít období svého dětství a mládí jakožto nevinného času her bez nutnosti předstírání a masek. Textem současně probíhá několik odlišných linií vytvářejících neustálé napětí mezi minulostí a přítomností, dochází k střídání tahu a protitahu mezi touhou vydat se dál do nové budoucnosti na jedné straně, na druhé vrátit se zpět a pokusit se změnit příběh svého života. Reflektivní proud myšlenek, pátrání v temných zákoutích rozpadajícího se labyrintu mysli v pokusu o rekonstrukci a znovuprožití zkušeností a vzpomínek a ve snaze o objevení autentičtějšího já je rozehráno na pozadí života barcelonské vyšší buržoazie a slouží také jako obecný komentář k poválečné španělské společnosti za represivního Frankova režimu. Novela, která byla vydána několik let po pádu diktatury v době, kdy docházelo ke společenským změnám, zůstává nadčasovou inovativní meditací a zamyšlením nad plynutím života.
