Particular Friends

The Correspondence of Samuel Pepys and John Evelyn

By: Samuel Pepys,John Evelyn

Intriguing insight into the minds of two exceptional men whose contribution to our understanding of 17th-century England is incalculable. SPECTATOR Pepys and Evelyn first came to know each other during the Second Dutch War (1664-7). As the plague raged in the London they loved, they were both preoccupied with the business of casualties from the war, Pepys as Clerk of the Acts, and Evelyn as a Commissioner for Sick and Wounded Seamen and Prisoners of War. Nearly forty years later they were still corresponding, exchanging details of remedies for the afflictions of old age. Their friendship, and their relations with others, as recorded in their famous diaries and letters, provide an exceptional opportunity to witness life at the heart of Restoration England. This book includes every letter which could be located (some of which have been lost for more than a hundred years), and the complete text of each has been newly transcribed and fully annotated. Evelyn and Pepys are revealed in fresh dimensions as many details of their lives and friendship emerge which go unmentioned, or are barely alluded to, in the diaries. GUY DE LA BEDOYERE, historian, archaeologist and broadcaster, has also published an edition of Evelyn's Diary and a collection of pieces by Evelyn, The Writings of John Evelyn.

Letters from Langston

From the Harlem Renaissance to the Red Scare and Beyond

By: Langston Hughes,Evelyn Louise Crawford,MaryLouise Patterson

Langston Hughes, one of America's greatest writers, was an innovator of jazz poetry and a leader of the Harlem Renaissance whose poems and plays resonate widely today. Accessible, personal, and inspirational, HughesÕs poems portray the African American community in struggle in the context of a turbulent modern United States and a rising black freedom movement. This indispensable volume of letters between Hughes and four leftist confidants sheds vivid light on his life and politics. Letters from Langston begins in 1930 and ends shortly before his death in 1967, providing a window into a unique, self-created world where Hughes lived at ease. This distinctive volume collects the stories of Hughes and his friends in an era of uncertainty and reveals their visions of an idealized worldÑone without hunger, war, racism, and class oppression.

The Making of a Mystic

New and Selected Letters of Evelyn Underhill

By: Evelyn Underhill

Evelyn Underhill (1875-1941) achieved international fame with the publication of her book Mysticism in 1911. Continuously in print since its original publication, Mysticism remains Underhill's most famous work, but in the course of her long career she published nearly forty books, including three novels and three volumes of poetry, as well as numerous poems in periodicals. She was the religion editor for Spectator, a friend of T. S. Eliot (her influence is visible in his last masterpiece, Four Quartets), and the first woman invited to lecture on theology at Oxford University. Her interest in religion extended beyond her Anglican upbringing to embrace the world's religions and their common spirituality. In time for the centennial celebration of her classic Mysticism, this volume of Underhill's letters will enable readers and researchers to follow her as she reconciled her beliefs with her daily life. The letters reveal her personal and theological development and clarify the relationships that influenced her life and work. Hardly aloof, she enjoyed the interests, mirth, and compassion of close friendships. Drawing from collections previously unknown to scholars, The Making of a Mystic shows the range of Evelyn Underhill's mind and interests as well as the immense network of her correspondents, including Sir James Frazier and Nobel Prize laureate Rabindranath Tagore. This substantial selection of Underhill's correspondence demonstrates an exceptional scope, beginning with her earliest letters from boarding school to her mother and extending to a letter written to T. S. Eliot from what was to be her deathbed in London in 1941 as the London Blitz raged around her.

White Supremacists and the Search for a New Frontier, 1970–2000

Aryan Cowboys

White Supremacists and the Search for a New Frontier, 1970–2000

By: Evelyn A. Schlatter

During the last third of the twentieth century, white supremacists moved, both literally and in the collective imagination, from midnight rides through Mississippi to broadband-wired cabins in Montana. But while rural Montana may be on the geographical fringe of the country, white supremacist groups were not pushed there, and they are far from "fringe elements" of society, as many Americans would like to believe. Evelyn Schlatter's startling analysis describes how many of the new white supremacist groups in the West have co-opted the region's mythology and environment based on longstanding beliefs about American character and Manifest Destiny to shape an organic, home-grown movement. Dissatisfied with the urbanized, culturally progressive coasts, disenfranchised by affirmative action and immigration, white supremacists have found new hope in the old ideal of the West as a land of opportunity waiting to be settled by self-reliant traditional families. Some even envision the region as a potential white homeland. Groups such as Aryan Nations, The Order, and Posse Comitatus use controversial issues such as affirmative action, anti-Semitism, immigration, and religion to create sympathy for their extremist views among mainstream whites—while offering a "solution" in the popular conception of the West as a place of freedom, opportunity, and escape from modern society. Aryan Cowboys exposes the exclusionist message of this "American" ideal, while documenting its dangerous appeal.

Virginia Woolf and the Professions

Virginia Woolf and the Professions

By: Evelyn Tsz Yan Chan

This book explores Virginia Woolf's engagement with the professions in her life and writing. Woolf underscored the significance of the professions to society, such as the opportunity they provided for a decent income and the usefulness of professional accreditation. However, she also resisted their hierarchical structures and their role in creating an overspecialised and fragmented modernity, which prevented its members from leading whole, fulfilling lives. This book shows how Woolf's writing reshaped the professions so that they could better serve the individual and society, and argues that her search for alternatives to existing professional structures deeply influenced her literary methods and experimentation.

The Antonio II Badile Album of Drawings: The Origins of Collecting Drawings in Early Modern Northern Italy

The Antonio II Badile Album of Drawings: The Origins of Collecting Drawings in Early Modern Northern Italy

By: Evelyn Karet

Evelyn Karet's in-depth study of the Antonio II Badile Album - the earliest known example of an art collection pasted onto the pages of a book - is both focused and broad in its appeal to those interested in the early modern era. The provenance of the album is traced from its assemblage to the seventeenth-century collection of Conte Lodovico Moscardo to its dismantling by the dealer Francis Matthiesen in the 1950s, establishing that the volume conserved in the Frits Lugt Collection is not an original but a replica produced by Matthiesen. Although Antonio II must be celebrated as the collector of the drawings, new paleographic analysis has identified the actual compiler of the album after Antonio?s death providing a terminus post quem in the late 1530s or early 1540s. Karet enlarges the focus from the album itself to the historic tradition of collecting drawings in northern Italy in the early modern era before Vasari, for which the album provides a new point of reference. Throughout the book, Karet discusses the Badile family, examines the individual drawings in the book, investigates the contacts between artists and humanists, their rich, diverse collections and the humanist mind-set that fostered the appreciation of drawings. She explores notable early drawing collections in northern Italy and the role of northern Italy as a center of collection in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The book concludes with two appendices: a reconstruction of the original album, including a discussion of the reconstruction process, suggestions about what the album originally looked like, and a page-by-page guide to its contents; and a detailed analysis of Francis Matthiesen's career. This book opens up new areas of inquiry into an overlooked subject.

The Great Plague

A People's History

By: Evelyn Lord

Focusing on Britain’s peasants, shopkeepers, and other commoners, this history of the deadly Black Plague is a “local account of the countrywide calamity” (The Times). In this intimate history of the extraordinary Black Plague pandemic that swept through the British Isles in 1665, Evelyn Lord focuses on the plague’s effects on smaller towns, where every death was a singular blow affecting the entire community. Lord’s fascinating reconstruction of life during plague times presents the personal experiences of a wide range of individuals, from historical notables Samuel Pepys and Isaac Newton to common folk who tilled the land and ran the shops. The Great Plague brings this dark era to vivid life—through stories of loss and survival from those who grieved, those who fled, and those who hid to await their fate. Includes maps, photos, and illustrations

I CRIED UNTO THE LORD IN MY WILDERNESS: THE LORD HEARD MY CRY

By: Evelyn Scott Roberts

This is a book on inspirational concerns and interpretation. It gives the reader a chance to become enlightened, focus and calm about the things that are happening in the world today. We have to have an outlet for understanding the truth about the coming event that is larger than any event that has ever taken place. This event is the coming of Christ. Yes, our Lord and Savior is coming and soon! And we need to prepare ourselves for it through the wisdom and knowledge of being able to cope with the daily issues of life through our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The interpretation of God’s word, by man, down through the generations, may have lost some of its depth, but the basic teaching of Christ is still there,so I urge everyone to develop a true relationship with God, individually, and He will fill in the gaps in your life to help you know His truth. He gives all of us the ability to go to Him and get the truth and understanding of His word so that we do not have to depend on another man. This reference book goes a little deeper into God’s realm of infinite glory. It pulls out the no no’s and do not’s that most of us skirt around simply because we do not want to hurt one another. But if your information, to them, is going to be of service to God, it is better for them to hurt for a little while and learn the truth, than to not receive it. Please read this interpretation of the verses with an open heart and mind. It will be through your spirit that you will receive the messages that will be intended for you. God will direct and guide you and let not man be your guide. Because men are going to conveniently interpret the meaning of God’s Word, in the last days, to make their lives easier to live the way they want to live it; a continuum of the ungodly situations, but a different aspect of it. But it says in 2 Corinthians 6:17 and 18- 17 Come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, 18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be My sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty. We are to stop agreeing with, and doing as they do. But walk in the Light of our Savior Jesus Christ and do as God would have you. You cannot live in the world and not come in contact with sinners, but being a child of God, your mind, spirit, thinking, action and speech will change to reflect the God in you. Being a child of God opens us up to all sorts of trials, tests and tribulations as well as the many blessings that God showers on us every day. The trials, tests and tribulations comes to strengthen us in the word and work of God and to help us grow in or relationship with God. The blessings are the reward for being faithful in our service and going through our trials and tribulations; doing it with praise to our God and reverence to our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Yes, God rewards/show us His faithfulness in His Promise to never leave or forsake us and also His unconditional love. The blessings are the “well done” thy good and faithful servant or the rewards God bestows on us for being faithful while going through our trials and tribulations and doing well or the best we can. God put a stamp of approval and a reminder that His promises are true. Every day we ask for miracles but we are not ready to do what God says in order to receive them. The price you pay for God’s Blessings and eternal life is to do His will. When you come to the crossroads in your life, carefully weigh the situations and circumstances that brought you there. Hopefully, with these verses, you will be enlightened. And through them God will give you the direction to take the road on the RIGHT.
