Six murders. One hundred pages. Millions of possible combinations... but only one is correct. Can you solve Torquemada's murder mystery? 'If James Joyce and Agatha Christie had a literary love child, this would be it.' The Daily Telegraph In 1934, the Observer's cryptic crossword compiler, Edward Powys Mathers (aka Torquemada), released a novel that was simultaneously a murder mystery and the most fiendishly difficult literary puzzle ever written.

Country Life in the Poetry of John Clare
Author: Mildred M. Coen
Publisher: DigiCat
ISBN:
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 27
Book Description
This work acts as a window into the country life of England during the late 18th to early 19th century. It was the period when John Clare lived and flourished as a poet. No one had ever written more powerfully about nature, rural childhood, and the alienated and unstable self the way Clare did. He was regarded as the greatest laboring-class poet that originated from England and became famous for honoring the English countryside and grieving its disruption. His work experienced major re-evaluation in the late 20th century, and he is now often seen as a significant 19th-century poet. The author begins with an interesting background of the period discussing the economic conditions, and then engages the readers with a short biography of John Clare. He then moves forward and analyzes the country life as portrayed in the famous poems of Clare and how the poet wrote with an artistic purpose even in those times of disorder. Contents include: Economic Conditions In The Time Of John Clare The Life Of John Clare Country Life In The Poetry Of John Clare

Pages : 165
Book Description
"Satiro-Mastix;" by Thomas Dekker is a late Elizabethan stage play. It was also involved in the Poetomachia or War of the Theatres. In Satiromastix, Horace (Jonson) is represented as a social hanger-on and toady, desperate to establish himself as an independent moralist but fearful of being held responsible for his judgments. We know his writing is corrupt, not because it is bad writing but because he himself is dishonest; his verse is concocted to exploit social possibilities, though he represents it as an essential part of a well-regulated state....
