![]() If you cried at Hamilton (no shame, we all did!), then grab those tissues and dive into this beautifully written story.īeing a teenager sucks. The book also explores Eliza’s life after Alexander’s death by duel, highlighting how passionate and driven she was. ![]() The novel, a fictionalized retelling of Schuyler’s life based on thousands of letters and original sources, leads readers through the tumultuous world of a general’s daughter turned founding father’s wife. ![]() If you’re desperate to learn more about her (despite her erasing herself from the narrative, as the song “Burn” goes), give My Dear Hamilton a try. One of the musical’s most beloved figures is Alexander’s devoted wife, Elizabeth “Eliza” Schuyler, who sings the powerful ballad “Burn” after Alexander makes his affair with another woman public. Lin-Manuel Miranda’s hip-hop musical about founding father Alexander Hamilton has not only reinvigorated the historical fiction genre and the musical world, but also sparked interest in the complicated lives of early Americans. ![]() ![]() If you’ve never heard of Hamilton, then you have been missing out on a phenomenon that has shaken the theater world to its core. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Enriched by the series' trademark comprehensive maps, illustrations, and annotations, and with contributions from the preeminent classical scholars of today, The Landmark Arrian: The Campaigns of Alexander is the definitive edition of this essential work of ancient history. ![]() This vivid and engaging new translation of Arrian will fascinate readers who are interested in classical studies, the history of warfare, and the origins of East-West tensions still swirling in Iran, Iraq and Afghanistan today. Arrian, himself a military commander, combines his firsthand experience of battle with material from Ptolemy's memoirs and other ancient sources to compose a singular portrait of Alexander. After twelve years of hard-fought campaigns, Alexander the Great controlled a vast empire that was bordered by the Adriatic sea to the west and modern-day India to the east. Arrian's Campaigns of Alexander, widely considered the most authoritative history of the brilliant leader's great conquests, is the latest addition to the acclaimed Landmark series. ![]() ![]() On this see his fascinating essay, ‘Some notes on Ahriman, the evil spirit, and his creation’, reprinted in a collection of his essays entitled From Zoroastrian Iran to Islam: Studies in Religious History and Intercultural Contacts (Aldershot: Ashgate, 1995).

Shortly before finishing his studies, Murakami opened the coffeehouse 'Peter Cat' which was a jazz bar in the evening in Kokubunji, Tokyo with his wife. ![]() His first job was at a record store, which is where one of his main characters, Toru Watanabe in Norwegian Wood, works. ![]() Murakami studied drama at Waseda University in Tokyo, where he met his wife, Yoko.

However, I do have three of Froud’s other offerings, which thoroughly show off his talent, his whimsy, and his skill at capturing the unknown which lurks all about us.

Possibly best known for his design work (with his wife, Wendy Froud) on cult-favorite movies Labyrinth and The Dark Crystal, he’s also released quite a few books of his own, both alone and with various collaborators.

In this report, we dig into 154 recent bankruptcies starting in 2015 and the reasons behind them. With retailers facing old challenges in addition to combating newly rising prices and a pullback in consumer spending, some reports indicate that retail bankruptcies may flare up once again in 2023.

He was easy to parody I praised and derided Bloom at different times, and once succumbed to the mischievous parody itch, as surely generations of his students had, too: “Only Don Quixote can rival the fat knight, Sir John Falstaff, and even Emerson at his strongest-stronger, here, even than his belated rival, Nietzsche-is not quite a match for his ultimate precursor, J’s Yahweh, though I concede that the greatest Jewish genius after Jesus, Sigmund Freud, would not have agreed with my heretical opinion.” Late Bloom repeated and recirculated his favored obsessions, cross-referencing himself in ecstasies of unearned fulfillment. He wrote ceaselessly, torrentially, and as he churned away he easily became vatic, windy, merely reckless where he had once been adventurous. This quality had great appeal but wasn’t an unmixed blessing on the page. Bloom, who died on Monday, wrote like a teacher his every utterance projected pedagogically, and I always assumed he wrote much as he talked in class. Sometimes all you remember of a teacher is a voice-“a way of happening, a mouth.” I never met Harold Bloom, but like many of his readers, I thought I knew his voice very well. ![]() Harold Bloom, who died at the age of eighty-nine, imagined literature as a quarrelling family and the critic as a Freudian analyst. ![]() |
