Àííîòàöèÿ: "One of the most notable and attractive forms of English Literature is the essay. In his introduction to this selection, first made for Pelican in 1942 and now enlarged and reprinted, Sir William Emrys Williams points out that the Essay, —has a multitude of forms and manners, and scarcely any rules and regulations.— Although many of the pieces chosen for this volume are such well-known ones as Charles Lamb—s —In Praise of Chimney Sweepers— or De Quincy—s memorable commentary on an episode in —Macbeth—, an endeavour has been made to remind readers that Addison, for example, wrote other and better essays than the few which are usually included in anthologies. Modern writers such as Hilaire Belloc, JB Priestly, Aldous Huxley, Robert Lynd, Ivor Brown, Harold Nicholson. EV Lucas, and VS Pritchett are given a fair share of representation."

Àííîòàöèÿ: What is a child doing when creating a spontaneous poetical monologue, when indulging in dramatic role-playing talk, when engaging in discussion, when openly gossiping? Children's use of language is an important pointer to an understanding of the world they live in,of the development of their perceptions and attitudes. The different forms their talk will take, and the situations in which they use these forms, richly repay close study on the part of educationalists and teachers.

Àííîòàöèÿ: Secret Places of the Lion is a classic of occult literature and a vital source book for all those who have studied the mesteries of antiquity and the controversial but persuasive evidence that beings from other worlds have visited this planet before the dawn of civilization.

Àííîòàöèÿ: William Carlos Williams (September 17, 1883 — March 4, 1963) was a Puerto Rican-American poet and physician closely associated with modernism and imagism. In addition to his writing, Williams had a long career as a physician practicing both pediatrics and general medicine. He was affiliated with Passaic General Hospital, where he served as the hospital s chief of pediatrics from 1924 until his death. The hospital, which is now known as St. Mary s General Hospital, paid tribute to Williams with a memorial plaque that states we walk the wards that Williams walked.

Àííîòàöèÿ: April 2nd 1879. St Petersburg. A shot rings out in Palace Square. The Tsar is unhurt, but badly shaken. Cossack guards tackle the would-be assassin to the ground. And in the melee no one notices a pretty dark haired young woman in a heavy coat walk purposefully away from the scene. Russia is alive with revolutionaries and this is just one of many assassination attempts on the unpopular Tsar Alexander II. For Dr Frederick Hadfield, part of the Anglo-Russian establishment with a medical practice dependent on the patronage of the nobility, politics is a distraction. But when he meets the passionate idealist Anna Petrovna, he finds himself drawn in to living a dangerous double life... Set in a world of stark contrasts, from glittering ballrooms to the cruel cells of the House of Preliminary Detention, from the grandeur of the British Embassy to the underground presses of the young revolutionaries, TO KILL A TSAR is both gripping thriller and passionate love story.

Àííîòàöèÿ: Tennessee Williams was born in 1911 in Columbus, Mississippi, where his grandfather was the episcopal clergyman. When his father, a travelling salesman, moved with his family to St Louis some years later, both he and his sister found it impossible to settle down to city life. He entered college during the Depression and left after a couple of years to take a clerical job in a shoe company. He stayed there for two years, spending the evening writing. He entered the University of Iowa in 1938 and completed his course, at the same time holding a large number of part-time jobs of great diversity. He received a Rockefeller Fellowship in 1940 for his play Battle of Angels, and he won the Pulitzer Prize in 1948 and 1955. Among his many other plays Penguin have published Summer and Smoke (1948), The Rose Tattoo (1951), Camino Real (1953), Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (1955), Baby Doll (1957), Orpheus Descending (1957), Something Unspoken (1958), Suddenly Last Summer (1958), Period of Adjustment (1960), The Night of the Iguana (1961), The Milk Train Doesn't Stop Here Anymore (1963), and Small Craft Warnings (1972). Tennessee Williams died in 1983.
