  • The Youth of Goethe by Peter Hume Brown
    The Youth of Goethe By Peter Hume Brown PREFACE "GENERALLY speaking," Goethe has himself said, "the most important period in the life of an individual is that of his development—the period which, in my case, breaks off with the detailed narrative of Dichtung und Wahrheit." In reality, as we know, there is no complete breach at any point in the lives of either nations or individuals. But if in the life of Goethe we are to fix upon a dividing point, it is his departure from Frankfort and his permanent settlement in Weimar in his twenty-seventh year. Considered externally, that change of his surroundings is the most obvious event in his career, and for the world at large marks its division into two well-defined periods. In relation to his inner development his removal from Frankfort to Weimar may also be regarded as the most important fact in his life. From the date of his settlement in Weimar he was subjected to influences which equally affected his character and his genius; had he continued to make his home in Frankfort, it is probable that, both as man and[Pg xiv] literary artist, he would have developed characteristics essentially different from those by which the world knows him. There were later experiences— notably his Italian journey and his intercourse with Schiller—which profoundly influenced him, but none of these experiences penetrated his being so permanently as the atmosphere of Weimar, which he daily breathed for more than half a century. As Goethe himself has said, the first twenty-six years of his life are essentially the period of his "development." During that period we see him as he came from Nature's hand.

  • CX 23 Boy from Oz 54-63
    FEATURE THETHE BOYBOY FROMFROM OZOZ The arena spectacular is alive and kicking. Julius Grafton reports… 54 CX 15 NOVEMBER 2006 www.juliusmedia.com By JULIUS GRAFTON he modern era of the arena spectacular started in 1992 when Jesus Christ Superstar ran for a Tstaggering 93 shows, mainly off the back of John Farnham’s career ascendency. It helped that the Christian community flocked as well. Then came Grease, with 75 shows the first time, and 18 last year, also with John Farnham headlining. The Boy from Oz has just finished 42 arena sized shows across Australia, which is probably as good a result as you can get in this entertainment awash era. Certainly the word we heard was that the producers; Ben Gannon and Robert Fox; were more than happy with the run. Tickets started at $90 and ranged up to $250, so the tour gross was likely over A$50 million before merchandise. Much of the time, tickets were very scarce, and the show we attended had just two empty seats that we could see, out of 12,000 – a complete sell out. Media were complaining there were no comps, and the very formidable and amusing Executive Producer Lesley Shaw confirmed this. Ms Shaw runs a tight ship, which is exactly what a Producer should do. These arena spectaculars are part theatre, part concert tour. This one sits half and half, with a story line, dialogue and of course Those Songs from Peter Allen, one of Australia’s most successful songwriters. The show reminds just how successful he was, his material was recorded far and wide.

  • Women's Non-Fictional Writing About Scotland 1770-1830
    TOURISTS AND TRAVELLERS: WOMEN'S NON-FICTIONAL WRITING ABOUT SCOTLAND 1770-1830 by ELIZABETH HAGGLUND A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of English School of Humanities The University of Birmingham March 2000 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT In this dissertation I consider the travels, and the travel and other non-fictional writings, of five women who travelled within Scotland during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century: the anonymous author of A Journey to the Highlands of Scotland; Sarah Murray; Anne Grant; Dorothy Wordsworth; and Sarah Hazlitt. During this period, travel and tourism in Scotland changed radically, from a time when there were few travellers and little provision for those few, through to Scotland's emergence as a fully organised tourist destination. Simultaneous with these changes came changes in writing. I examine the changes in the ways in which travellers travelled in, perceived and wrote about Scotland during the period 1770-1830. 1 explore the specific ways in which five women travel writers represented themselves and their travels.

He is especially known for his thought regarding the return of the gifts of the Holy Spirit and his pre-millennialism, including his belief in the imminent physical return of Jesus Christ.
