Abstract:
A quest for information concerning one of the missing room interiors of Wray Castle, a Gothic villa near Windermere in Cumbria, built for a Liverpool surgeon in the 1840s, curiously led the National Trust to the wonderfully contrasting neo-classical Manchester Central Library, designed by E. Vincent Harris and completed in 1934. A trawl through the records revealed a keen donor but a reluctant architect. Sixteenth-and seventeenth-century carved oak panels from the library of Wray Castle were removed and donated for use in the new Central Library by the Lord Mayor of Manchester, Sir Robert Noto

Abstract:
Lem’s autobiographical novel. The High Castle, appears on the surface to be a juvenile memoir in the realistic mode. It must instead be read as a philosophical novel narrating the story of a talented child of the technological era, who suddenly experiences the yearning for ideals. At the outset, the child is enamored of the “little wheels” of his toys and the mechanical “malleability of matter.” He fears the unpredictable and illogical world of living things. In his school years, the child “reconstructs himself’ to fit perfectly into the construct of the school’s social system. But the child r

Ever since its Greek and Roman mythological and literary sources during Antiquity, the myth of Orpheus has been of paramount importance in the edification of the Artist as a key-character of understanding Music as magic and Love beyond death.

Up to this day, the myth of Orpheus continues to allure composers` creative imagination.

At the thematic and structural centre of the narrative there are two recurring spatial trajectories that most commonly manifest themselves in the form of deathscapes and homes.

Abstract:
This essay argues that George Lamming’s In the Castle of My Skin presents an aesthetic quest into an alternative Caribbean subjecthood built on the capacity of feeling. Studying various dimensions of affectivity along with what Raymond Williams called “structures of feeling,” it examines the feeling of “my people” in its “dominant,” “residual,” and “emergent” dimensions. The author considers first how the dominant image of “my people” as “the enemy” gains consent from the characters and supports the hegemony of the ruling class.

In the past twenty years there has been a renaissance in Jacobite studies in Britain and North America.

This thesis addresses one of the major challenges facing education systems in developing countries: that of how to include all children, particularly those from relatively disadvantaged communities. It looks, in particular, at the example in Nepal of children from the Dalit communities, a group known to be disadvantaged and often marginalized within the formal education system. In particular, the study attempts to investigate the barriers that prevent the educational access, participation and progress of these students at the secondary level.
