Arthur Sullivan: A Victorian Musician
Author: Arthur Jacobs
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0429872259
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 566
Book Description
Published in 1992. This is a revised, enlarged edition of a book which on its original appearance in 1984 was hailed as a landmark in the study of Victorian musical life. It presents the figure of Sir Arthur Sullivan (1842-1990) not only as the celebrated co-creator of light operas with W.S Gilbert, but as a composer of all kinds of music from symphony and concerto to ballads such as ‘The Lost Chord’ and hymns such as ‘Onward, Christian Soldiers’. A prominent public life, with a knighthood in 1883, is contrasted with an unconventional private life involving a liaison of almost thirty years with an American living in London, Mary Frances Ronalds. The author’s access to Sullivan’s diary held by Yale University and to letters and other documents at the Pierpont Morgan library in New York gives this book both a unique authority and a deep human understanding. A new chapter updates research to the 150th anniversary of the composer’s birth, 1992, and incorporates music examples.

Tackling the Inner Cities
Author: Susanne MacGregor
Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA
ISBN:
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 312
Book Description
On the night of her election victory in 1987, Margaret Thatcher announced that tackling the difficulties in the inner cities was to be a major goal of her third term. But while government policy is said to be highly geared to physical renewal and regeneration of the local economy, it addresses only the more immediately visible manifestations of urban decay. In this critical analysis, MacGregor and Pimlott review the impact of government policy on social conditions in contemporary British cities, challenging conventional images of increasing prosperity and arguing that recent developments and reforms to improve the situation in the inner cities have often made things worse for those who live there.
