The Diamond Jubilee celebrations (despite the rain) were fantastic, the river pageant in all its glory, the wonderful concert in front of the palace and the firework finale, and then the solemn thanksgiving service at St Paul's and the fly past over the palace. What a wonderful tribute to our Royal Family and especially the Queen for 60 glorious years. Then there was the Trooping of the Colour carried out with the usual military precision for which the British soldier is renowned throughout the world. No other country does this like ours. And then the Olympics! The opening ceremony was quintessentially British and celebrated our history in such a vivid and spectacular way.

    CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION A. Background of the Study Up at the Villa is a classical romance story that tells how a young beautiful widow is caught between three men. It is a fictional novel that was written by William Sommerset Maugham and published for the first time in 1941 by Doubleday Publishers in England. Up at the Villa was also later published by Vintage Publishers. Currently, Up at the Villa is uploaded on many blogs and can be downloaded in various file formats from websites like http//www.mymaughamcollection.blogspot.com. The novelette Up at the Villa was written by William Sommerset Maugham during his journey across Europe because of the outbreak of World War I.

  • Directed by Michael Donald Edwards, OUR BETTERS Opens March 13 at Asolo Rep
    Directed by Michael Donald Edwards, OUR BETTERS Opens March 13 at Asolo Rep "A more devious Downton Abbey." – NowToronto.com (SARASOTA, February 5, 2015) — Before there was Downton Abbey, there was Our Betters, W. Somerset Maugham's fiery romantic dramedy about the invasion of sly social-climbing American heiresses into British society. The fifth play in the third season of Asolo Rep's five-year American Character Project illuminates a sect of wealthy, early 20th-century American women who yearned for the pomp and circumstance – and parties – of the British nobility. Directed by Asolo Rep's producing artistic director Michael Donald Edwards, Our Betters opens Friday, March 13, 2015 at 8pm and runs through Sunday, April 19 at Asolo Rep, with previews Wednesday, March 11 and Thursday, March 12 at 8pm. In early 20th-century England, broke British aristocrats desperately needed money to maintain their ornate estates, and wealthy American women desperately wanted -more- Our Betters Page 2 of 7 the prestige of marrying well. After marrying a baronet, American hardware heiress Lady Pearl Grayston appears to have everything a girl could want – a posh title, a throng of adoring lovers, and the crème de la crème of British society, including a princess and a duchesse, at her beck and call – but she wants more. When Pearl's little sister, Bessie, crosses the pond to join her sister's enviably glamorous life and find a noble husband of her own, she is unprepared for the scandal that is about to erupt behind closed manor doors. “Brimming with dynamic and passionate women of position, prestige and wealth, Our Betters reveals how they prevailed in a society with limited options for women," said Michael Donald Edwards.

  • A Study of Ws Maugham
    A STUDY OF W.S. MAUGHAM HARUMA OKADA W．S．モーム研究 岡田春馬 William Somerset Maugham was born in Paris in 1874. As the family name shows, he may come from the Celtic lineage originally. From the family many great persons concerned with jurisprudence appeared from generation to generation. His grandfather was the founder of the Society of Jurisprudence, and wrote many essays. His father was also the famous lawyer, who was a counsellor of English Embassy to France, and practised in Paris. According to what Maugham writes in Summing Up, his father was a man of very singular inclination, and travelled much to Turkey, Greece and Morocco ; such places where many persons do not often visit. I feel his father's romantic vein of blood in Maugham's inclination of vagabond and adventurous spirit seeking for new experiences. He studied at the University of Heidelberg before taking up medicine in London. Since then, his travels have been frequent and extensive. He had been to India, Burma, Siam, Malaya, China, the South Seas, Russia, and the Americas, but his homes are made in London, Paris, and New York, and on the French Riviera which forms a kind of seasonable annexe to those three capitals. In my opinion, his travels nourished his writings. A cosmopolitan society supplied the background for most of his fiction and his plays, but he is as much at ease with the outpost life of British and French colonies and with remote mission stations. There must be a huge number of people whose only knowledge of missionaries is derived from the most famous story of all Maugham's short stories, Rain.

  • The Razor's Edge by W. Somerset Maugham
    The Razor’s Edge by W. Somerset Maugham About the author W. Somerset Maugham was born in 1874 and lived in Paris until he was ten. He was educated at King's School, Canterbury, and at Heidelberg University. He afterwards walked the wards of St. Thomas's Hospital with a view to practice in medicine, but the success of his first novel, Liza of Lambeth (1897), won him over to letters. Something of his hospital experience is reflected, however, in the first of his masterpieces, Of Human Bondage (1915), and with The Moon and Sixpence (1919) his reputation as a novelist was assured. His position as one of the most successful playwrights on the London stage was being consolidated simultaneously. His first play, A Man of Honour (1903), was followed by a procession of successes just before and after the First World War. (At one point only Bernard Shaw had more plays running at the same time in London.) His theatre career ended with Sheppey (1933). His fame as a short-story writer began with The Trembling of a Leaf, sub-titled Little Stories of the South Sea Islands, in 1921, after which he published more than ten collections. W. Somerset Maugham's general books are fewer in number. They include travel books, such as On a Chinese Screen (1922) and Don Fernando (1935), essays, criticism, and the self-revealing The Summing Up (1938) and A Writer's Notebook (1949). W. Somerset Maugham became a Companion of Honour in 1954. He died in 1965. About the book The Razor's Edge, by British novelist W.

He has tried to put into dramatic form some of the thoughts and emotions which have recently agitated many, and for this purpose he has chosen the most ordinary characters in the circle with which, owing to his own circumstances, he is best acquainted.

  • Cita En Samarra
    EDITORIAL • CitaEDITORIAL en Samarra Cita en Samarra Appointment in Samarra EUGENIO MATIJASEVIC, BOGOTÁ D.C. El DoctorAlejandro Próspero Reverend afirma en susDetalles muy interesantes ocurridos entre el Libertador y su médico de cabecera (1), que Bolívar, cercana ya la hora de su muerte, después de la inesperada visita del obispo de Santa Marta (que se desplazó hasta San Pedro Alejandrino a pedido del general Montilla con la recomendación de que le mencionara al Libertador el tema de las disposiciones finales), inquirió a Reverend sobre qué tan malo sería su estado de salud que se estaba hablando ya de las diligencias de testamento y confesión. Aunque podría decirse que la de Bolívar no era tanto una solicitud de opinión médica como una declaración de sus propias deducciones, Reverend sagazmente la aceptó como solicitud de opinión y, evitando referirse de manera concreta a su estado de salud, le soltó a cambio algunos lugares comunes sobre la posibilidad de mejorar la salud y facilitar la tarea del médico con tan sólo realizar las tales diligencias. Fue entonces cuando Bolívar respondió con otra pregunta que la literatura ha hecho famosa: “¿cómo saldré yo de este laberinto?”. Cuatrocientos años antes, en la copla XIII de las Coplas que hizo a la muerte del Maestre de Santiago don Rodrigo Manrique su padre, don Jorge Manrique había dado respuesta anticipada (no hay lugar, no es posible dar la vuelta) a la pregunta de Bolívar: Los plazeres y dulçores de esta vida trabajada que tenemos, no son sino corredores, y la muerte, la celada en que caemos. No mirando a nuestro daño, corremos a rienda suelta, sin parar; cuando vemos el engaño y queremos dar la buelta, no ay lugar (2).

  • Revolutionary Hedonism in W.S. Maugham's Cakes And
    9ROXPH,,,,VVXH,9-XQH,661 Revolutionary hedonism in W.S. Maugham’s Cakes and Ale Dr. Girish Chandra Pant Assistant Professor Seemant Institute of Technology Pithoragarh Uttarakhand India Abstract In Cakes and Ale Maugham puts up strong defense of sex as a source of pleasure.His heroine defies traditional stepping on the old Victorian morality. She emerges as the model of hedonism and she has been examined without mercy, the manner in which exaggerated literary reputation are artificially stimulated. The novel gives us a great character, a sweet harlot whose worth survives the corrosion of the author’s skepticism. What we love in her is her unadorned beauty and boldness for frequent physical relations. Rosie the heroine is untamed but human goodness, delicious honest kindliness are the inseparable part of her personality. The charming extravagance and falsehood does not exist in the novel. There is adventure and it is romantic indeed. Rosie’s life is romantically adventurous and it is based on hedonism. It is contradictory in the novel that whether realism is pure or not but we have the sufficiently recognizable feature of life. The type of sex incorporated in it belongs to real life which in civilized states suppressed as a guilty secret. Keywords: morality, boldness, instinct, nymphomania, conjugal life, inner world, ultra modern, adultery 1. INTRODUCTION: In 1930 W. Somerset Maugham was the highest paid British author when his next masterpiece of middle phase Cakes andAle published and in the opinion of critics this novel was very closer to Of Human Bondage. The appreciation and evaluation of Cakes and Ale not only accorded to it the fame of being a masterpiece but it also became the most controversial novel of W.S.

  • Constant Wife Program:Constant Wife Program
    We l c o m e t o Dear Friends — it’s good to have you here! Old friends are best, wouldn’t you agree? With so much activity in and around our theatres of late, with the red carpet out for the likes of Twyla Tharp, Chita Rivera, and Sandy Duncan, it’s good to know that we continue to be loyal to and support artists whose evolving careers have made such a contribution to our community, and who are largely responsible for the extraordinary level of accomplishment of these past decades. There is a small cavalcade of Associate Artists returning for this next round, and it’s worth noting that among them, with the presence of director Seret Scott, costume designer Lewis Brown, set designer Ralph Funicello, and the great Kandis Chappell of The Constant Wife, we are also delighted to welcome home to the Carter our beloved Jonathan McMurtry whose tenure here on our stages rivals Craig Noel’s for quality, consistency, and sheer endurance. Trying, directed by Rick Seer, could have been written for Jonathan, and that comfortable fit in no way diminishes our awareness of just how fortunate we are to provide a creative home for these men and women whose talents are so interwoven with the pleasure of our playgoing. We don’t forget nor neglect the men and women upon whose backs we’ve made our reputation, any more than we ever wish to overlook your importance to us in the planning and the sustaining of this Theatre.
