The history of England / Thomas Babington Macaulay

Public ISBD Titre : The history of England Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Thomas Babington Macaulay ; H. R. Trevor-Roper Editeur : London [England] : Penguin Books Année de publication : 1979,1968 Collection : Penguin English library Importance : 570 p. Format : 19 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-14-043133-9 Note générale : Includes index. Langues : Anglais Catégories : LITTERATURE ET LANGUE ANGLAISE:828 English literature Mots-clés : Great Britain-History-James II-1685-1688  Great Britain-History -William and Mary-1689-1702  Great Britain-Politics and government-1660-1714. Résumé : This book is the history of England from the accession of King James the Second down to the time that is within the memory of men still living. The author shall recount the errors which, in a few moments, alienated a loyal gentry and priesthood from the House of Stuart. Macaulay traces the course of that revolution which terminated the long struggle between our sovereigns and their parliaments, and bound up together the rights of the people and the title of the reigning dynasty. He shall also relate how the new settlement was, during many troubled years, successfully defended against foreign and domestic enemies; how, under that settlement, the authority of law an the security of property found to be compatible with a liberty of discussion and of individual action never before known; how, from the auspicious union of order and freedom sprang a prosperity of which the annuals of human affairs had furnished no example; how our country, from a state of ignominio! us vassalage, rapidly rose to the place of umpire among European powers; how her opulence and her martial glory grew together; how, by wise and resolute good faith, was gradually established a public credit fruitful of marvels which to the statesmen of any former age would have seen incredible; how a gigantic commerce gave birth to a maritime power, compared with which every other maritime power, ancient or modern, sinks in to insignificance; how Scotland, after ages of enmity, was at length united to England, not merely by legal bonds, but by indissoluble ties of interest and affection; how, in American, the British colonies rapidly became far mightier and wealthier than the realms which Cortes and Pizzaro had added to the dominions of Charles the Fifth; how in Asia, British adventurers founded an empire not less splendid and more durable than that of Alexander.

It is the major book of the nineteenth century, and one of the most readable and accessible of the great revolutionary works of the scientific imagination."The Origin of Species" was the first mature and persuasive work to explain how species change through the process of natural selection. Upon its publication, the book began to transform attitudes about society and religion, and was soon used to justify the philosophies of communists, socialists, capitalists, and even Germany's National Socialists. But the most quoted response came from Thomas Henry Huxley, Darwin's friend and also a renowned naturalist, who exclaimed, "How extremely stupid not to have thought of that!"

The tenant of Wildfell Hall / Anne Brontë

Public ISBD Titre : The tenant of Wildfell Hall Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Anne Brontë, Auteur ; Peter Merchant, Auteur Editeur : London [England] : Penguin Books Année de publication : 1994 Collection : Penguin English library Importance : XXVI-394p. Format : 20cm. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-85326-488-7 Langues : Anglais Catégories : LITTERATURE ET LANGUE ANGLAISE:823 English fiction : novel ; LITTERATURE ET LANGUE ANGLAISE:828 English literature Mots-clés : Landlord and tenant-England-Fiction  Married women-England-Fiction  Alcoholism-England-Fiction Résumé : The Tenant of Wildfell Hall is a powerful and sometimes violent novel of expectation, love, oppression, sin, religion and betrayal. It portrays the disintegration of the marriage of Helen Huntingdon, the mysterious 'tenant' of the title, and her dissolute, alcoholic husband. Defying convention, Helen leaves her husband to protect their young son from his father's influence, and earns her own living as an artist. Whilst in hiding at Wildfell Hall, she encounters Gilbert Markham, who falls in love with her. On its first publication in 1848, Anne Bront?s second novel was criticised for being 'coarse' and 'brutal'. The Tenant of Wildfell Hall challenges the social conventions of the early nineteenth century in a strong defence of women's rights in the face of psychological abuse from their husbands. Anne Bront?'s style is bold, naturalistic and passionate, and this novel, which her sister Charlotte considered 'an entire mistake', has earned her a position in English Literature in her own right.
