October 1988Bleak House
by Charles Dickens, Phiz, Richard Zoozmann
Nicht nur wird in Bleak House die Hohlheit einer Adelsgesellschaft kritisiert, sondern, wie könnte dies bei Dickens fehlen, der Blick des Lesers auch auf Großstadtnot, Wohnungselend und Vernachlässigung gerichtet, breit geschildert und in dem verkommenen Gassenjungen Jo zum Leben erweckt.

Humanities & Social SciencesDecember 2013The House of Lords
by Donald Shell
The House of Lords has undergone significant change in recent years. The exclusion of the great majority of the hereditary peers in 1999 was intended as the first step in a two-stage reform process. But further reform has proved difficult to achieve and remains a matter of considerable controversy. Meanwhile, the present House has become more assertive, and is now widely recognised as making a substantial contribution to the overall work of parliament. This book, available in paperback for the first time, examines the role of the contemporary House. Who are the peers, and who among the total of over 700 are the active peers? How does the House work, and how effective is it in revising legislation and in scrutinising the work of government? Why has fundamental reform of the House been so long delayed, and what are the main arguments about reform today? These are among the questions discussed in this timely volume, which seeks to locate discussion about the House of Lords in the wider context of a clear understanding of the developing British constitution. This book will be of great value to students and academics in British politics, as well as to serious journalists and researchers. ;

Humanities & Social SciencesApril 2021The Irish tower house
Society, economy and environment, c. 1300–1650
by Victoria L. McAlister
The Irish tower house examines the social role of castles in late-medieval and early modern Ireland. It uses a multidisciplinary methodology to uncover the lived experience of this historic culture, demonstrating the interconnectedness of society, economics and the environment. Of particular interest is the revelation of how concerned pre-modern people were with participation in the economy and the exploitation of the natural environment for economic gain. Material culture can shed light on how individuals shaped spaces around themselves, and tower houses, thanks to their pervasiveness in medieval and modern landscapes, represent a unique resource. Castles are the definitive building of the European Middle Ages, meaning that this book will be of great interest to scholars of both history and archaeology.

Humanities & Social SciencesJune 2020Reform of the House of Lords
by Philip Norton
This book is the only one of its kind, providing a clear and exhaustive analysis of the different approaches to the future of Britain's second chamber. The House of Lords has long been the subject of proposals for reform - some successful, others not - and calls for the existing membership to be replaced by elected members have been a staple of political debate. The debate has been characterised by heat rather than light, proponents and opponents of change often talking past one another. This work gives shape to the debate, drawing out the role of the House of Lords, previous attempts at reform, and the different approaches to the future of the House. It develops the argument for each and analyses the current state of the debate about the future of the upper house in Britain's political system.

Literature & Literary StudiesApril 2023Charles Dickens and Georgina Hogarth
A curious and enduring relationship
by Christine Skelton
Charles Dickens called his sister-in-law Georgina Hogarth his 'best and truest friend'. Georgina saw Dickens as much more than a friend. They lived together for twenty-eight years, during which time their relationship constantly changed. The sister of his wife Catherine, the sharp and witty Georgina moved into the Dickens home aged fifteen. What began as a father-daughter relationship blossomed into a genuine rapport, but their easy relations were fractured when Dickens had a mid-life crisis and determined to rid himself of Catherine. Georgina's refusal to leave Dickens and his desire for her to remain in his household led to rumours of an affair and even illegitimate children. He left her the equivalent of almost £1 million and all his personal papers in his will. Georgina's commitment to Dickens was unwavering but it is far from clear what he did to deserve such loyalty. There were several occasions when he misused her in order to protect his public reputation. Why did Georgina betray her once much-loved sister? Why did she fall out with her family and risk her reputation in order to stay with Dickens? And why did the Dickenses' daughter Katey say it was 'the greatest mistake ever' to invite a sister-in-law to live with a family?

March 2024Mayfair House
Oben lädt Madam zum Ball der Saison, unten planen die Dienstmädchen den Raub des Jahrhunderts
by Alex Hay, Regina Rawlinson
London, Mayfair 1905: Die Villa der Familie de Vries ist die prachtvollste auf der Park Lane, außen weißer Marmor, innen kostbare Möbel, funkelnde Kronleuchter, Kristallschalen und edle Kunstgegenstände, Silber und Gold glänzen um die Wette. Es ist Mrs Kings ganzer Stolz, für die exzellente Haushaltsführung der noblen Residenz zu sorgen – bis sie beim Tod des Hausherrn nach Jahren treuer Dienste kurzerhand entlassen wird. Doch Mrs King denkt gar nicht daran, sich der Willkür der Erbin de Vries zu fügen. Sie will nur eins – Gerechtigkeit. Mit einer bunten Truppe von Komplizinnen plant sie den Coup ihres Lebens: In der Nacht des großen Kostümballs werden sie unter den Augen der vornehmen Gäste das Haus bis auf den letzten Silberlöffel ausräumen. Und während sich im Obergeschoss die High Society amüsiert, beginnt ein Stockwerk tiefer der kühnste Raubüberfall, den London je gesehen hat … Alex Hay erzählt in diesem Heist-Roman voller Eleganz und Esprit die Geschichte eines atemberaubenden Rachefeldzugs und einer schillernden Gruppe Frauen, die sich nehmen, was ihnen zusteht.
