Beschreibung

In "Byron," John Nichol presents a compelling examination of the life and works of the enigmatic Romantic poet Lord Byron. The book meticulously explores Byron's complex character, delving into his tumultuous relationships, public persona, and profound influences on the literary landscape of the early 19th century. Nichol's style combines biographical narrative with critical analysis, engaging readers with rich descriptions and insightful commentary that contextualizes Byron within the broader currents of Romanticism, thereby illuminating the psychological and social underpinnings of his poetry. Nichol, an accomplished biographer and scholar renowned for his deep understanding of Romantic literature, draws on extensive research and critical scholarship to portray Byron's influence on literary circles and beyond. His keen interest in Byron's multifaceted identity—marked by both brilliance and controversy—reflects Nichol's own fascination with the interplay of art, politics, and personal experience. This background informs his nuanced portrayal of Byron as not just a poet, but a cultural icon grappling with the era's moral complexities. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersections of poetry, personality, and history. Nichol's insightful analysis and engaging prose invite readers to experience the brilliance and turbulence of Byron's world. Whether you are a student of Romantic literature, a poetry enthusiast, or simply curious about one of history's most scandalous figures, "Byron" offers a profound exploration that will resonate long after the final page.

    This is history... but not as you know it! At Waterloo, women are stripping the corpses of their valuable shoes and stockings yet the Highlanders are left in mass graves with their coarse tartan socks still on. Roy Strong attending a private dinner with the Prime Minister notes that Margaret Thatcher in floaty chiffon is "the apotheosis of the boss's wife, with the appeal of cosmeticised putty." Even at the  coronation of George IV, Queen Caroline, who is denied entry to the Abbey, is observed looking like "a blowsy landlady". As for the nude revue 'Oh Calcutta', it is noted that "there are some parts of the anatomy over whose movements the choreographer has no control”.  Join Fanny Kemble as she travels at break-neck speed aboard Stephenson's Rocket and Joyce Grenfell as she washes her tennis balls and bakes them in the oven while Lord Byron conducts a fiery seaside funeral of his close friend Shelley.

    When Jewher Ilham's father, Ilham Tohti, an internationally known advocate for peaceful dialogue between his Uyghur people and Han Chinese, was detained at the Beijing airport in February 2013 on charges of "separatism," and later sentenced to life in prison, Jewher was forced to begin a new life apart from her family in a new country. There, she found her voice as an advocate for her father, and for Uyghur people being forced into concentration camps by the Chinese government. 
     
     
     
    In Because I Have To: The Path To Survival, The Uyghur Struggle, Jewher shares an intimate account of how she maintained the strength and courage to fight for her father, the sometimes emotional toll it took on her, and the inspiration and loss of her mentor. With the inclusion of testimonials of Uyghur camp survivors and others affected by the crackdown on Uyghurs in China, Because I Have To:The Path to Survival, The Uyghur Struggle tells the story of one person, and of an entire culture under threat.
