The Annotated Alice: The Definitive Edition, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass Lewis Carroll, Lewis Carroll Allen Lane/The Penguin Press, hc, 2000-12-00
A very real little girl named Alice follows a remarkable rabbit down a rabbit hole and steps through a looking-glass to come face to face with some of the strangest adventures and some of the oddest characters in all literature. The crusty Duchess, the Mad Hatter, the weeping Mock Turtle, the diabolical Queen of Hearts, the Cheshire-Cat, Tweedledum and Tweedledee--each one is more eccentric, and more entertaining, than the last. And all of them could only have come from the pen of Lewis Carroll, one of the few adults ever to enter successfully the children's world of make-believe--a wonderland where the impossible becomes possible, the unreal, real...where the heights of adventure are limited only by the depths of imagination. --back cover Contains: - [Alice's Adventures in Wonderland](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL8193508W) - [Through the Looking Glass, and What Alice Found There][2] [2]: https://openlibrary.org/works/OL15298516W

The Private Life of the Brain Susan A Greenfield London: Allen Lane/The Penguin Press, London, England, 2000
"Rich in insights from such diverse realms as pharmacology, psychology, neuroscience and everyday life. The Private Life of the Brain traces the life of the mind and reveals how our childhood experiences, intense emotions like fear and euphoria, and the drugs that induce these extreme feelings dramatically affect who we are. She argues that emotions exist at the core of our consciousness to a greater or lesser degree, depending on how much we are using - or losing - our mind at any given moment."--BOOK JACKET

I saw eternity the other night : King's College, Cambridge, and an English singing style Timothy Day National Geographic Books, Illustrated, PT, 2019
The sound of the choir of King's College, Cambridge - its voices perfectly blended, its emotions restrained, its impact sublime - has become famous all over the world, and for many, the distillation of a particular kind of Englishness. This is especially so at Christmas time, with the broadcast of the Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols, whose centenary is celebrated this year. How did this small band of men and boys in a famous fenland town in England come to sing in the extraordinary way they did in the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries? It has been widely assumed that the King's style essentially continues an English choral tradition inherited directly from the Middle Ages. In this original and illuminating book, Timothy Day shows that this could hardly be further from the truth. Until the 1930s, the singing at King's was full of high Victorian emotionalism, like that at many other English choral foundations well into the twentieth century. The choir's modern sound was brought about by two intertwined revolutions, one social and one musical. From 1928, singing with the trebles in place of the old lay clerks, the choir was fully made up of choral scholars - college men, reading for a degree. Under two exceptional directors of music - Boris Ord from 1929 and David Willcocks from 1958 - the style was transformed and the choir broadcast and recorded until it became the epitome of English choral singing, setting the benchmark for all other choral foundations either to imitate or to react against. Its style has now been taken over and adapted by classical performers who sing both sacred and secular music in secular settings all over the world with a precision inspired by the King's tradition. I Saw Eternity the Other Night investigates the timbres of voices, the enunciation of words, the use of vibrato. But the singing of all human beings, in whatever style, always reflects in profound and subtle ways their preoccupations and attitudes to life. These are the underlying themes explored by this book.

The dream of reason : a history of Western philosophy from the Greeks to the Renaissance Gottlieb, Anthony Allen Lane, the Penguin Press, London, England, 2000
"The Dream of Reason illustrates how the story of philosophy is more the history of a sharply inquisitive cast of mind than of a sharply defined discipline. We engage immediately with both the personalities and the arguments of every major philosopher from Ancient Greece to the birth of modern philosophy in the seventeenth century; the modern era will be addressed in a second volume. Among a large cast of curious individuals, we encounter Thales, perhaps the first philosopher, certainly the first of a long line of absent-minded professors; Empedocles, who in the fourth century BC invented a theory of matter which convinced nearly everybody until the Renaissance, despite the fact that Empedocles believed himself to be a reincarnated bush; Anaxagoras, who was convicted of impiety for believing that the heavenly bodies were not gods to be worshipped but red-hot rocks to be avoided; Diogenes, the cynic who lived in an earthenware tub; and Epicurus, no bon viveur, but a philosopher devoted to the simple life."--BOOK JACKET.

Existentialists and mystics : writings on philosophy and literature Murdoch, Iris Allen Lane/The Penguin Press; Allen Lane, 1st American ed., New York, New York State, 1998
Best known as the author of twenty-six novels, Iris Murdoch has also made significant contributions to the fields of ethics and aesthetics. Collected here for the first time in one volume are her most influential literary and philosophical essays. Tracing Murdoch's journey to a modern Platonism, this volume includes incisive evaluations of the thought and writings of T. S. Eliot, Jean-Paul Sartre, Albert Camus, Simone de Beauvior, and Elias Canetti, as well as key texts on the continuing importance of the sublime, on the concept of love, and the role great literature can play in curing the ills of philosophy. Existentialists and Mystics not only illuminates the mysticism and intellectual underpinnings of Murdoch's novels, but confirms her major contributions to twentieth-century thought.

The Penguin History of Britain: New Worlds, Lost Worlds: The Rule Of The Tudors 1485 To 1603 Brigden, Susan, 1951- Allen Lane/The Penguin Press, Penguin history of Britain, London, 2001
No period in British history today retains more resonance and mystery than the sixteenth century. The leading figures of the time have become almost mythical, and the terrors and grandeurs of Tudor Britain have resonance with even the least historically minded readers. Above all Brigden sees the key to the Tudor world as religion - the new world of Protestantism and its battle with the the old world of uniform Catholicism. This great religious rent in the fabric of English society underlies the savage violence and turbulence of the period - from Henry VIII's break with Rome to the overwhelming threat of the Spanish Armada. 'NEW WORLDS, LOST WORLDS' is a startlingly atmospheric tour de force.

Natasha's dance : a cultural history of Russia Figes, Orlando Allen Lane The Penguin Press, London, England, 2002
"Orlando Figes's A People's Tragedy, wrote Eric Hobsbawm, did "more to help us understand the Russian Revolution than any other book I know." Now, in Natasha's Dance, this internationally renowned historian does the same for Russian culture, summoning the myriad elements that formed a nation and held it together.". "Beginning in the eighteenth century with the building of St. Petersburg - a "window on the West" - and culminating with the challenges posed to Russian identity by the Soviet regime, Figes examines how writers, artists, and musicians grappled with the idea of Russia itself - its, character, spiritual essence, history, and destiny. What did it mean to be Russian - an illiterate serf or an imperial courtier? And where was the true Russia - in Europe or in Asia? Figes skillfully interweaves the great works - by Dostoevsky and Chekhov, Stravinsky and Chagall - with folk embroidery, peasant songs, religious icons, and all the customs of daily life, from eating, drinking, and bathing habits to beliefs about death and the spirit world. His fascinating characters range high and low; the revered Tolstoy, who left his deathbed to search the wilderness for the Kingdom of God; the serf girl Praskovya, who became Russian opera's first superstar, won the heart of her owner, and shocked society by becoming his wife; the composer Stravinsky, who returned to Russia after fifty years in the West and discovered that the homeland the had left had never left his heart."--BOOK JACKET.

From the Boer War to the Cold War : essays on twentieth-century Europe A.J.P. Taylor; edited with an introduction by Chris Wrigley Viking Press, 1st American ed., London, England, New York, N.Y., USA, England, 1995
A.J.P. Taylor was one of the 20th century's foremost historians, admired by both the history-reading public, and professional historians. His essays, like his books, deal with the big issues and major figures of the British and continental European past. His substantial studies of European relations and of Britain between the outbreak of the First World War and the conclusion of the Second World War remain standard works. This book contains the best of Taylor's essays, including pieces on Balfour, Asquith, the First World War, Trotsky, Mussolini, Hitler, Bevin, Churchill, and the start of the Cold War. -- Publisher description

From the Boer War to the Cold War : essays on twentieth-century Europe A J P Taylor; Chris Wrigley Allen Lane; Allen Lane The Penguin Press, New York, ©1994
A.J.P. Taylor was one of the 20th century's foremost historians, admired by both the history-reading public, and professional historians. His essays, like his books, deal with the big issues and major figures of the British and continental European past. His substantial studies of European relations and of Britain between the outbreak of the First World War and the conclusion of the Second World War remain standard works. This book contains the best of Taylor's essays, including pieces on Balfour, Asquith, the First World War, Trotsky, Mussolini, Hitler, Bevin, Churchill, and the start of the Cold War. -- Publisher description

Evolution's workshop : God and science on the Galápagos Islands Edward John Larson Allen Lane The Penguin Press, London, England, 2001
"When Charles Darwin landed on the Galapagos Islands in 1835, he was the first to recognize that their isolation and desolation were advantages for a naturalist: Here the workings of nature are laid bare for study. Still, much more happened on these islands than Darwin's lone visit. Evolution's Workshop describes how specimen-hunting and science have supported each other (or not) on the Galapagos over the past three centuries. In lucid prose, Edward Larson introduces the extraordinary parade of top researchers who have studied on the islands, the warring institutions that have sent expeditions, and the major discoveries that have emerged as a result. He shows why these islands have been called the workshop of evolution: It is here that the tools and blueprints of nature are visible, and here that the great theories have been built."--Jacket.

The White Flag Principle : How To Lose A War And Why [by] Shimon Tzabar Allen Lane, The Penguin Press, New York, New York State, 1973
Focuses on the advantages of being defeated in war and explains strategies and tactics designed to insure military disaster. *The White Flag Principle* was written in London, in English, in 1968-69, and was published in London (Allen Lane, The Penguin Press), New York (Simon & Schuster), Paris (Denoel) in 1972, and in Italy (Bompiani) in 1975. In his memoirs Shimon writes at length about the inception of the book, the meticulous research he carried out for writing the book in the British Library, the process of writing and its reception. Unexpectedly, the book had a second life in the 1990s when Gilad Atzmon introduced it to his literary agent (The Susijn Agency). Subsequently the book was translated into several languages and was re-published in USA (2002), Germany (2003), Holland (2004), Greece (2003), Japan (2003), Denmark (2002) and Spain (2005). However, for Shimon, the publication of the book in Hebrew, in Israel, in 1995 was particularly significant. The book (in English) has been purchased by the CIA library, and is on the reading list of at least one US military academy.

Garrick McIntyre, Ian, 1931-2014 London: Allen Lane The Penguin Press ; New York, N.Y., USA: Penguin Putnam, London, New York, N.Y., USA, England, January 1, 1989
xiii, 678 pages, 16 unnumbered pages of plates : 24 cm "In March 1737, at the age of twenty, David Garrick and his lifelong friend and sometime teacher Samuel Johnson, who was twenty-seven, set out from their boyhood home in Lichfield to walk to London and make their way in the world. They became respectively the greatest man of the theatre and the greatest man of letters of their day. Ian McIntyre's book strips away the varnish of centuries and portrays the friendship of Garrick and Johnson as an altogether more difficult and prickly relationship than we might previously have thought." "Garrick himself emerges as one of the most talented and most splendid figures of the English eighteenth century, and one of the happiest. McIntyre has been able to reconstruct the daily life of Garrick's theatre for the first time in a biography, and to show his concerns and triumphs from season to season. Above all, he shows us, from Garrick's diaries and more than a thousand surviving letters, the voice and personality of this most attractive and engaging man."--Jacket Includes bibliographical references (pages 624-632) and index

Pleasing myself : from Beowulf to Philip Roth Kermode, Frank, 1919-2010 London: Allen Lane, The Penguin Press, London, England, 2001
"Kermode himself has sometimes said that much of his best work has been done at shorter length, in the essays he has written on a very wide range of subjects for literary journals of one kind or another. Pleasing Myself brings together the best of these pieces from the last decade, on topics as diverse as Donne, Yeats, Howard Hodgkin, gnosticism, the sea and money, as well as further thoughts on Shakespeare. Each of them is concise and entertaining, and has something original or pithy to say about its subject. They will bring as much pleasure to their readers as Kermode unashamedly admits the writing of them brought to the author."--BOOK JACKET
