  • Diana, Princess of Wales
    Diana, Princess of Wales The Lady Diana Frances Spencer (Diana Frances Mountbatten- Windsor, née Spencer) (1 July 1961–31 August 1997) was the first wife of Charles, Prince of Wales. From her marriage in 1981 to her divorce in 1996 she was styled Her Royal Highness The Princess of Wales. After her divorce in 1996, Diana ceased to be a Royal Highness and The Princess of Wales and instead was styled Diana, Princess of Wales. She was often called Princess Diana by the media and the public, but this was incorrect both during and after her marriage, as she was only ever a Princess by marriage, not by birth.' An iconic presence on the world- stage, Diana, Princess of Wales was noted for her pioneering charity work. Yet her philanthropic endeavours were overshadowed by her scandal-plagued marriage to Prince Charles. Her bitter accusations via friends and biographers of adultery, mental cruelty and emotional distress visited upon her riveted the world for much of the 1990s, spawning books, magazine articles and television movies. From the time of her engagement to the Prince of Wales in 1981 until her death in a car accident in 1997, the Princess was arguably the most famous woman in the world, the pre-eminent female celebrity of her generation: a fashion icon, an image of feminine beauty, admired and emulated for her high-profile involvement in AIDS issues and the international campaign against landmines. During her lifetime, she was often referred to as the most photographed person in the world. To her admirers, The Princess of Wales was a role model — after her death, there were even calls for her to be nominated for sainthood — while her detractors saw her life as a cautionary tale of how an obsession with publicity can ultimately destroy an individual.

  • The Life and Death of an Icon Facil Ute Core Core Tie Modiam, Conulla
    WW | xxxxxxxx THIS STORY ALWAYS HAD everything, didn’t it? The blushing young innocent who transformed herself into the most adored – and most hunted – woman in the world. The Cinderella who found her Prince Charming – or thought she did – and then entered the palace via the golden carriage. The fairytale but fraudulent wedding of the century, followed by that grim parable of death in the Paris tunnel. The romance, the adultery, the royal intrigue, the eternal, hopeless quest for love, the media’s crazed preoccupation and pursuit. TIn her lifetime, Diana was the People’s Princess who, in death, became the Sleeping Beauty and the Lady of the Lake. She was the stuff that myths are made of and, like her or not, believe it or not, hers was a tale of epic, monumental proportions, that mesmerised the world for 16 years – from the time she walked down the aisle in St Paul’s Cathedral to the time of her funeral in Westiminster Abbey, witnessed by, what was it, a quarter of the world’s population? permafrost and the duke’s Teutonic coldness Think of Marilyn Monroe, Princess Grace, to Diana’s single-minded pursuit of Prince Greta Garbo, Jackie Onassis, perhaps even Charles and her elder son, William’s, interest Mother Theresa, and roll them into one in becoming governor-general of Australia. iconic figure, and you might approach the The Diana Spencer that emerges from fame, the celebrity of Diana Spencer, the pages of Tina Brown’s The Diana Celebrated editor Tina Princess of Wales.

  • Diana and Race: Romance and the Reconfiguration of the Nation1
    Diana and Race: Romance and the Reconfiguration of the Nation1 Mica Nava This article was published in Mourning Diana: Nation, Culture and the Performance of Grief, edited by Adrian Kear and Lynn Steinberg, London: Routledge (1999). A slightly modified version entitled ‘Princess Diana and Dodi Al Fayed: Romance, Race and the Reconfiguration of the Nation’ was included as Chapter 7 in Mica Nava’s Visceral Cosmopolitanism: Gender, Culture and the Normalisation of Difference, Oxford: Berg (2007) Introduction Every now and again there are cultural events which freeze frame the transformed and transformative elements of a historical period. Princess Diana’s death and the week which followed exposed to the world the lineaments of a new British nation which bore no resemblance to the conventional heritage images disseminated around the globe in travel posters, films and BBC dramas over the decades since world war two and the decline of empire. The lead role, it is true, still belonged to a princess, but the supporting cast – the metropolitan populace - was composed to a remarkable extent of the visibly-different dark-skinned children and grandchildren of Britain’s former colonies, bolstered by a cosmopolitan ragbag of migrant physiognomies from around the world. And more striking still: in this new scenario the lover of the golden haired princess was dark-skinned and from somewhere else as well. The public face of Britain was no longer white. This new picture of the nation, captured and played back on the endless hours of television footage, was transmitted not only to the world outside. It registered and was constitutive of a transformation in the domestic consciousness as well.

This comes in the midst of a six-year period in which the Post reports the former president has earned $40 million in speaking fees. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,255203,00.html {Flashback} Barbara Bush made donation - provided her son's firm got it HOUSTON - Former first lady Barbara Bush contributed money to a hurricane-relief fund on the condition that it be spent to buy educational software from her son Neil's company. Jean Becker, the chief of staff of former President George H.W. Bush, would not disclose the amount earmarked for purchases from Ignite Learning. ... But Daniel Borochoff, president of the American Institute of Philanthropy, a charity watchdog group, said donors who direct that their money be used to buy products from a family business set a bad precedent. "If everybody started doing that, it would ruin our whole system for tax-exempt organizations because people would be using them to benefit their business rather than for the public benefit," he said.

  • 1 BAB I PENDAHULUAN A. Latar Belakang Diana Spenser, Anak Perempuan Termuda Dari Viscountes Althorp, Lahir Di Prak Houusee, Sand
    1 BAB I PENDAHULUAN A. Latar Belakang Diana Spenser, anak perempuan termuda dari Viscountes Althorp, lahir di Prak Houusee, Sandringham. Diana, kedua kakak perempuan dan seorang adik lelakinya tinggal di Park House sampai kematian kakek mereka, Larl Spenser, pada tahun 1975.

Pada tahun 1977, Ia meenghabiskan beberapa bulan meenyelesaikan sekolah di Swiss, lalu kembali ke London dan bekerja sebagai pengasuh anak pada sebuah keluarga Amerika kaya raya dan sebagai guru taman kanak-kanak.

Pangeran Charles bahkan pernah kencan dengan kakak teertua Diana, Lady Sarah Spenser, Pangeran Charles tidak kunjung menikah hingga usia 30 tahun lebih.
