Elizabeth Murray: A Woman`s Pursuit of Independence in Eighteenth-Century America

y.
Publisher:
Description: One of the most compelling figures in colonial America, Elizabeth Murray (1726-1785) was a Scottish immigrant who settled in Boston in her early twenties and took up shopkeeping. For many years, she practiced her trade successfully while marrying three times, once to a much older man who left her an extremely rich widow. This biography chronicles the life of this extraordinary `ordinary` woman who tried to make a place for herself and other women in the world by asserting her own independence inside and outside of the home. As an importer and retailer of British goods, Murray conducted business with merchants and manufacturers in England and buyers in the American colonies, even traveling to London to select her own stock. Deeply satisfied by her work and the economic freedom it brought her, she acted as mentor to other women, helping them to establish shops of their own. She also protected her autonomy by demanding prenuptial agreements from her second and third husbands that [detailed...]

2005 y.
Publisher:
Description: American artist Elizabeth Peyton is one of the outstanding painters of her generation, a painter known for her intimate figurative portraits of youthful, romantic people, ranging from friends, to historical figures, to music world celebrities. Her work is intensely personal, but the subject becomes an intimate of both audience and artist. Peyton`s ability to draw the viewer in is a result of her own fascination and curiosity about the figures she chooses. They are stylish in a timeless way and are at moments in their lives when they stand for their own ideals of independence, beauty, and artistry. Her manner is to paint small, devotional images in an `awkward, self-effacing way with an offhand intensity.` Compiled by Peyton herself, the book chronicles ten years of inspiration, her works in many media, and her exhibitions, revealing the evolution of this exceptional artist who has been highly influential, in the words of the New York Times, in bringing `a return to beauty in art, a [detailed...]

Elizabeth and Philip: 20 November 1947

2007 y.
Publisher: National Archives
Description: As Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip celebrate their 60 years of marriage, the National Archives presents a fascinating, behind the scenes look at the royal wedding of 1947. The magnificence of the occasion captured the nation`s imagination and brought thousands on to the streets to cheer. Its Norman Hartnell dresses and 400 lb. wedding cake (extravagances frowned on in some quarters) offered a temporary escape from a ration book economy and the worries of an unstable world. Using the unparalleled original material in The National Archives, Elizabeth and Philip charts the round the clock efforts of those, both high and low, who ensured the event`s success. Fascinating nuggets and individual anecdotes abound from the official who proposed using fireworks (given all the `surplus explosive chemicals` left over from the war!) to civil servants appalled at the poor quality tourist tat, or the police who, politely but firmly, demanded their own beer tent to keep up morale on the day.

Ella: Princess, Saint and Martyr

2007 y.
Publisher: Wiley
Description: Considered to have been the most beautiful princess in Europe, capable of arousing profane passions, Elisabeth of Hesse and by Rhine, or Ella as she was known, was a granddaughter of Queen Victoria and the daughter of Princess Alice of Great Britain and Grand Duke Louis of Hesse. A privileged, happy Victorian childhood was touched by tragedy not only with the early deaths of her youngest brother and sister but also that of her young mother. Close to Queen Victoria, Ella spent some of her happiest times in Britain. At 20, however, much against the wishes of her grandmother, who despised everything Russian, Ella became engaged to Grand Duke Serge Alexandrovich, the authoritarian younger brother of Tsar Alexander III. It was at their wedding that her younger sister, Alix, formed a love match with the future Tsar Nicholas II, an event which not only sealed the fate of both sisters, but that of the Imperial House of Romanov. But for these two marriages, the history of Russia might [detailed...]

Ellen Glasgow : A Biography

2003 y.
Publisher:
Description: Book Description In Ellen Glasgow: A Biography , Susan Goodman vividly brings the famously secretive writer to life, penetrating the myths, half-truths, and lies that have swirled around Glasgow since the publication of her first novel, The Descendent , in 1896. Drawing on previously unpublished papers and personal interviews, Goodman uncovers the engrossing details of Glasgow`s family history, social milieu, personal tragedies, and literary career. Glasgow emerges from these pages as a woman of great courage, self-discipline, and indomitable will who survived tragedy after tragedy. Throughout her life, literature remained her driving passion. In the novels which were her life`s work, Glasgow sought a commitment to truth beyond human weakness, to what she called the `living pulse` of experience. Goodman explores the genesis of each novel, detailing Glasgow`s process of writing and offering incisive critical appraisals of her early successes and failures as well as the [detailed...]

Description: Solomons fascinating and sweeping history of the legal fight over mandatory school prayers is compelling, judicious, and elegantly written. Fabulous!David Rudenstine, Dean, Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law, Yeshiva University Stephen Solomons Ellerys Protest provides a brilliant analysis of a major Supreme Court decision that redefined the relationship between church and state almost a half century ago. This study goes well beyond simply offering a gripping account of the course of litigation that brought before the Justices the contentious issue of prayer and Bible reading in public schools, though the thoroughness of that account would merit careful reading by itself. Especially impressive is the authors deep probing of hitherto neglected sources, and invaluable primary material including extensive direct contact with the plaintiff, the Ellery of the books title. Finally, and perhaps most impressive, is Solomons careful placement of the issue and the case in a far [detailed...]
