  • This Document, Approved by the Board of Hachette UK, Sets out The
    This document, approved by the board of Hachette UK, sets out the Group’s approach to conducting its tax affairs and dealing with tax risks in compliance with schedule 19 of the Finance Act 2016 for the year ending 31 December 2018. The Hachette UK Group is committed to: • Following all applicable laws and regulations relating to its tax activities and submitting all returns by their due dates. • Maintaining an open and honest relationship with the tax authorities based on collaboration and integrity. • Applying diligence and care in our management of the processes and procedures by which all tax related activities are undertaken, and ensuring that our tax governance is appropriate. • Using incentives and reliefs to minimise the tax cost of conducting our business while ensuring that these reliefs are not used for purposes which are knowingly contradictory to the intent of the legislation. Risk management Managing the Group’s tax affairs is a complex process across many functional areas of the business and as such there will inevitably be risks of error or omission within those processes (tax risks), which may result in the incorrect application of tax rules or calculation of tax returns. Eliminating tax risks entirely is impossible. Therefore, the Group’s attitude towards the level of control required over the processes designed to reduce these tax risks is driven by the likelihood of occurrence and scale of the impact of each risk. The identified tax risks are then assessed on a case by case basis, allowing the Group to arrive at well-reasoned conclusions on how each individual risk should be managed.

  • The Arc Erotica Collection Cambridge University Library
    The ARC erotica collection of Cambridge University Library This short-title catalogue comprises a full inventory of the erotica held by Cambridge University Library in their ‘Arc’ - short for ‘Arcana’, meaning mysteries or secrets - collection as of February 2015. I first became aware of the extent of this collection and some of its treasures in the early 1980s when, together with my friend Peter Mendes, we both visited the library for the purpose of conducting some research for books we were writing. Peter’s interests were limited, by the nature of his project, to English erotica of the 19th century, but I had broader scope and rummaged around in the printed catalogue for entries by the ‘usual suspects’. I quickly found an edition of Restif de la Bretonne’s outstandingly obscene l’Anti-Justine dated 1798. To my certain knowledge, only four copies of this rara avis were in existence, all in the Bibliothèque Nationale, Paris, although rumours of a fifth copy surfaced from time-to-time. I suspected strongly that the Cambridge edition was a later reprint, falsely pre-dated as is often the custom with pornographers, and yet I was sufficiently curious to put in a request for it. To my very great surprise, and that of my companion, the book, when it arrived, turned out to be the legendary fifth copy, in a fantastic mid-19th century binding and decorative box that suggested that one of its previous owners may probably have been Frederick Hankey, the English sadist-bibliophile resident in Paris who so disturbed the Goncourt brothers when they dropped in on him.

  • Representing the Roman Invasion of Britain in Texts for Children 3 Once
    Notes 1 Introduction: That Was Then? 1. ‘Children’s literature’ refers throughout this book to both children’s and young adult texts. 2. For example, in John Stephens’s influential discussion in Language and Ideology in Children’s Fiction (202–40). 3. Mendlesohn gives an account of the experience of her partner, the his- torian Edward James, at the medieval conference in Kalamazoo. His condemnation by some children’s literature scholars for suggesting that children’s historical books should teach history and inspire children with the desire to learn more is both amusing and a telling example of the incomprehension that can occur when two disciplinary discourses collide (51–2). 4. Note that this restriction refers to subject matter, not authorship. Several of the texts discussed are by non-British writers. 5. A typical example is Alison Prince’s Anne Boleyn and Me: The Diary of Eleanor Valjean 1525–1536 (2004), which tells of Henry VIII’s divorce from Catherine of Aragon from the point of view of Catherine’s young lady- in-waiting. This was later repackaged as Anne Boleyn and Me (My Royal Story): A Tudor Girl’s Diary 1524–1536 (2010). 6. At a panel discussion at the World Science Fiction Convention in Glasgow, 2005. 2 The Eagle Has Landed: Representing the Roman Invasion of Britain in Texts for Children 1. Ladybird was quite capable of making conscious intertextual references. Later in Shopping with Mother, for example, we see a copy of Peach’s own Alfred the Great in the window of a shop. 2. Despite the similarity in names, the echo of Dan and Una from Kipling’s Puck of Pook’s Hill (1906) is not deliberate (Browne, personal communica- tion, 2009).
