Doctor Thorne remains indisputably one of Trollopes greatest achievements. Paradoxically, it was not a favourite with its author, but then, as so often, he was a poor judge of his own work. Interestingly, the plot was devised not by the author but by his brother Tom with whom he was staying in Florence when, as he confessed, I was cudgelling my brain for a plot.Frank Gresham is heir to Greshamsbury Court, once a very rich estate but now much depleted, mortgages on the estate being held by the self-made millionaire Sir Roger Scatcherd. Frank is consequently under a great deal of pressure to marry money; particular pressure is applied by his mother, the snobbish sister of the Earl de Courcy, but Frank is in love with Mary Thorne, niece of the eponymous Doctor with whom she lives.However, it is known only to Doctor Thorne that Mary is in fact Sir Rogers eldest neice, albeit illegitimate: Sir Roger, a stone-cutter who has made his fortune through ruthless business dealings and has been ennobled because of his success, is paradoxically a drunkard and an ex-convict, a result of killing his sisters seducer, Mary Thornes father, many years before.

Death Comes for the Archbishop is the story, not of death, but of life, for Miss Cathers Archbishop Latour died of having lived. She is concerned, not with any climactic moment in a career, but with the whole broad view of the career. There is no climax, short of the gentle end.One summer evening in the year 1848, three Cardinals and a missionary Bishop from America were dining together in the gardens of a villa in the Sabine hills, overlooking Rome. The villa was famous for the fine view from its terrace. The hidden garden in which the four men sat at table lay some twenty feet below the south end of this terrace, and was a mere shelf of rock, overhanging a steep declivity planted with vineyards.A flight of stone steps connected it with the promenade above. The table stood in a sanded square, among potted orange and oleander trees, shaded by spreading ilex oaks that grew out of the rocks overhead. Beyond the balustrade was the drop into the air, and far below the landscape stretched soft and undulating; there was nothing to arrest the eye until it reached Rome itself.

Many people experience constant tension without an obvious trigger. Stress Without Cause explores why the body can remain on high alert even in safe, calm environments. Chronic activation of the nervous system not only drains energy but also undermines mental clarity, physical health, and emotional balance, leaving individuals frustrated by repeated attempts to relax or reset.This book delves into the physiological and psychological mechanisms behind unexplained stress. It explains how the nervous system can remain locked in fight-or-flight mode, the role of hormones such as cortisol, and why past experiences, subtle environmental cues, and habitual thought patterns reinforce constant alertness. Readers will gain a clear understanding of why conventional relaxation techniques may fail if underlying systems remain unbalanced.Stress Without Cause also provides practical strategies for restoring equilibrium. It guides readers through techniques to recalibrate the nervous system, reduce hypervigilance, and retrain the body and mind to respond appropriately to real threats rather than perceived ones. By learning to recognize patterns and apply structured interventions, readers can regain control, improve sleep, enhance focus, and reduce physical symptoms of chronic tension.Targeted at those frustrated by persistent anxiety, unexplained tension, or difficulty calming down, this book combines scientific insight with actionable guidance. It empowers readers to move from constant alertness to genuine relaxation, creating a foundation for improved health, productivity, and emotional resilience.

"Professor James Parkhurst, I consider you a colossal failure as an educator," said Francesca, his daughter, known to friend and family as Bambina, or Bambi for short.Professor Parkhurst lifted a startled face from his newspaper and surveyed his only child across the breakfast table."My dear, what causes this sweeping assertion of my incompetence?""I do! I do! Just what did you expect me to do when I grew up?""Why, to be happy.""Thats the profession you intended me for? Whos to pay the piper? Its expensive to be happy and also unlucrative.""I have always expected to support you until your husband claimed that privilege.""Suppose I want a husband who cant support me?""Dear me, that would be unfortunate. It is the first duty of a husband to support his wife.""Old-fashioned husbands, yesbut not modern ones. Lots of men marry to be supported nowadays. How on earth could I support the man I love?""You are not without talents, my dear.""Talents? You almost said accomplishments! If you were not living in the Pliocene age, Professor James Parkhurst, you would know that accomplishments are a curseaccomplishment is the only thing that counts.

Barchester Towers concerns the leading clergy of the cathedral city of Barchester. The much loved bishop having died, all expectations are that his son, Archdeacon Grantly, will succeed him. Owing to the passage of the power of patronage to a new Prime Minister, a newcomer, the far more Evangelical Bishop Proudie, gains the see.His wife, Mrs. Proudie, exercises an undue influence over the new bishop, making herself as well as the bishop unpopular with most of the clergy of the diocese. Her interference to veto the reappointment of the universally popular Mr. Septimus Harding (Protagonist of Trollopes earlier novel, The Warden) as warden of Hirams Hospital is not well received, even though she gives the position to a needy clergyman, Mr Quiverful, with 14 children to support.Even less popular than Mrs. Proudie is the bishops new chaplain, the hypocritical and sycophantic Mr. Obadiah Slope, who decides it would be expedient to marry Hardings wealthy widowed daughter, Eleanor Bold. Slope hopes to win her favour by interfering in the controversy over the wardenship.

Je ne sais pourquoi les entreprises du Japon contre la Chine et des Etats-Unis contre lEspagne qui se suivirent dassez pres, me firent, dans leur temps1, une impression particuliere. Ce ne furent que des conflits tres restreints ou ne sengagerent que des forces de mediocre importance ; et je navais, quant a moi, nul motif de minteresser a ces choses lointaines, auxquelles rien dans mes occupations ni dans mes soucis ordinaires ne me disposait a etre sensible. Je ressentis toutefois ces evenements distincts non comme des accidents ou des phenomenes limites, mais comme des symptomes ou des premisses, comme des faits significatifs dont la signification passait de beaucoup limportance intrinseque et la portee apparente. Lun etait le premier acte de puissance dune nation asiatique reformee et equipee a leuropeenne ; lautre, le premier acte de puissance dune nation deduite et comme developpee de lEurope, contre une nation europeenne.

A Lost Lady is a novel by American author Willa Cather, first published in 1923. It centers on Marian Forrester, her husband Captain Daniel Forrester, and their lives in the small western town of Sweet Water, along the Transcontinental Railroad.However, it is mostly told from the perspective of a young man named Niel Herbert, as he observes the decline of both Marian and the West itself, as it shifts from a place of pioneering spirit to one of corporate exploitation. Exploring themes of social class, money, and the march of progress, A Lost Lady was praised for its vivid use of symbolism and setting, and is considered to be a major influence on the works of F. Scott Fitzgerald. It has been adapted to film twice, with a film adaptation being released in 1924, followed by a looser adaptation in 1934, starring Barbara Stanwyck.A Lost Lady begins in the small railroad town of Sweet Water, on the undeveloped Western plains. The most prominent family in the town is the Forresters, and Marian Forrester is known for her hospitality and kindness. The railroad executives frequently stop by her house and enjoy the food and comfort she offers while there on business.
