Like her much-loved heroine Emma Woodhouse, Jane Austen 'played and sang'. Music occupied a central role in her life, and she made brilliant use of it in her books to illuminate characters' personalities and highlight the contrasts between them. Until recently, our knowledge of Austen's musical inclinations was limited to the recollections of relatives who were still in their youth when she passed away. But with the digitisation of music books from her immediate family circle, a treasure trove of evidence has emerged. Delving into these books, alongside letters and other familial records, She played and sang unveils a previously unknown facet of Austen's world. This insightful work not only uncovers the music closely associated with Austen, but also unravels her musical connections with family and friends, revealing the intricate ties between her fiction and the melodies she performed. With these revelations, Austen's musical legacy comes to life, granting us a deeper understanding of her artistic prowess and the influences that shaped her literary masterpieces.
Mit der Ehe hat Emma, die Titelheldin in Jane Austens viertem großen Roman, erklärtermaßen nichts im Sinn. Doch andere zu verkuppeln ist geradezu ihr Steckenpferd, das sie bravourös zu beherrschen glaubt. So greift sie in das Leben der 17jährigen Harriet Smith ein, will sie mit dem allseits begehrten Mr. Elton verheiraten und verkennt darüber deren wirkliche Gefühle – sowie ihre eigenen. Emma ist eine satirische »Komödie der Irrungen«, die ein realistisches Bild des englischen Landadels um 1800 zeichnet.

»Eine gute Geschichte braucht ein Opfer. Eines am Anfang und eines am Ende.« Bessere Menschen. Falsche Tiere. Aussteiger im Paradies. Die einen wollen die Natur retten, den Planeten, die Menschheit. Die anderen nur sich selbst: vor Spielschulden, Ehekrächen, Einsamkeit. In »Leben ist keine Art mit einem Tier umzugehen« erzählt Emma Braslavsky ein großes, packendes Abenteuer – über Fluch und Segen des Menschseins, über unsere Suche nach Erkenntnis und Wahrhaftigkeit. Und nie weiß man, ob man aus Verzweiflung lacht oder vor Glück.

Margaret Cavendish was one of the most prolific, complex and misunderstood writers of the seventeenth century. A contemporary of Descartes and Hobbes, she was fascinated by philosophical, scientific and imaginative advances, and struggled to overcome the political and cultural obstacles which threatened to stop her engagement with such discourses. Emma Rees examines how Cavendish engaged with the work of thinkers such as Lucretius, Plato, Homer and Harvey in an attempt to write her way out of the exile which threatened not only her intellectual pursuits but her very existence. What emerges is the image of an intelligent, audacious and intrepid early modern woman whose tale will appeal to specialists and general readers alike. ;

Shakespeare by McBean collects 300 images, many never before published, taken by the renowned photographer Angus McBean. Incorporating images from every one of Shakespeare's plays performed at the RSC, with some from the Old Vic, between the years 1845-62, it is a veritable who's who of the British stage. Richard Burton, Vivien Leigh, Robert Donat, Alec Guiness, Michael Redgrave, Peggy Ashcroft, Laurence Olivier, Edith Evans, Paul Scofield, Diana Rigg, Anthony Quayle, Charles Laughton, John Gielgud, Peter O'Toole and Dorothy Tutin are just some of the names that appear. Angus McBean was an exceptional talent, whether he was transforming the photography of rehearsals, inspiring the Beatles, or entertaining his admireres with his light-hearted espousal of surrealism in portraiture. In a career lasting half a century his influence can be seen in everything from advertising to pop culture.
