Extractions: eye - Authors Festival biographies In 1962, when AL ALVAREZ (U.K.) introduced his landmark anthology The New Poetry , his "espousal of the doomed, confessional, transatlantic voices of Sylvia Plath, Robert Lowell, John Berryman and Thom Gunn... virtually set the poetic agenda for a generation" ( Sunday Times ). Alvarez has published award-winning poetry, literary criticism and three novels. His non-fiction covers topics that include suicide, divorce, poker, North Sea oil and mountaineering. In his latest book, a memoir entitled Where Did It All Go Right? JOHN ARDEN (U.K.) and MARGARETTA D'ARCY (Ireland) have written numerous plays together since the 1950s, using agitprop and other innovative techniques. Their The Island of the Mighty , which debuted in London in 1972, makes its North American premiere in Toronto this October. D'Arcy, who has worked as an actor and playwright since the age of 15, is also a committed activist who has been jailed five times for her political protests. Arden has written several novels and a number of plays, including Sergeant Musgrave's Dance , "a spell-binding, mind-challenging drama that touches greatness" ( Guardian MARGARET ATWOOD 's (Canada) illustrious career as a writer and spokesperson for Canadian culture has spanned nearly half a century. "Margaret Atwood is a Canadian, a poet and novelist who seems to be able to do anything she wants" (

Extractions: Career: Poet and playwright Tennyson was born in 1809 in Somersby, Lincolnshire. The fourth of 12 children, he was the son of a clergyman who maintained his office grudgingly after his younger brother had been named heir to their father's wealthy estate. According to biographers, Tennyson's father, a man of violent temper, responded to his virtual disinheritance by indulging in drugs and alcohol. Each of the Tennyson children later suffered through some period of drug addiction or mental and physical illness, prompting the family's grim speculation on the "black blood" of the Tennysons. Biographers surmise that the general melancholy expressed in much of Tennyson's verse is rooted in the unhappy environment at Somersby. Tennyson enrolled at Trinity College, Cambridge, in 1827. There he met Arthur Hallam, a brilliant undergraduate who became Tennyson's closest friend and ardent admirer of his poetry. Hallam's enthusiasm was welcomed by Tennyson, whose personal circumstances had led to a growing despondency: his father died in 1831, leaving Tennyson's family in debt and forcing his early departure from school; one of Tennyson's brothers suffered a mental breakdown and required institutionalization; and Tennyson himself was morbidly fearful of falling victim to epilepsy or madness. Hallam's untimely death in 1833, which prompted the series of elegies later comprising

http://hallbiographies.com/index.php/Mode/product/AsinSearch/0393049671/name/Ted

Extractions: It's a pity my review comes late in the queue, because this book is not as bad as other reviewers make out. Essentially, this book is a history of Ted Hughes' life. It makes no great claims to interpret his ideas inside the covers. What I liked about this book was its attempt to make a balanced description of what happened with Sylvia Plath and the other significant people in his life. The author avoids the rancor and emotionalism that must certainly have engulfed Ted in the years subsequent to Sylvia's suicide. It's the first account of Ted I have read which suggests that although he had a weakness for beautiful women, he was very patient and kind with Sylvia and tried to help her even after their separation. He continued to support her growing fame after her death. In this book he comes over as a likeable, thoughtful man ' a gentle giant amidst circumstances fraught with extremity.

Extractions: Great Britain: England Sometimes known as "Prince Hal," King Henry VIII of England was the second son of Henry VII and the second in the Tudor dynasty. His elder brother, Arthur, died before their father, so it was the hale and hearty Henry who, after marrying his brother's widow Catherine, took the throne upon his father's death. Henry VIII's political maneuverings resulted in a break with the Catholic Church and the launch of the English Reformation, all motivated by his pursuit of a male heir. He is perhaps best known for his six wives, two of whom he had executed. Henry also wrote poetry and composed music, and was considered an excellent sportsman until ill health slowed him down. Wives

Extractions: Woman of Note Europe: Germany Hildegard von Bingen, known as Sibyl of the Rhine for her musical compositions and poetry, was a visionary mystic and abbess of the Benedictine cloister of Disibodenberg. Her visions, which she'd experienced since a child, were confirmed by a committee of theologians and officially recorded in the work Scivias. Hildegard also wrote music, lives of saints, treatises on natural history and medicine, and correspondence containing prophecies and allegorical treatises. Though never formally canonized, she is listed as a saint in the Roman Martyrology for the miracles reported during her lifetime and at her tomb. The recent 900th anniversary of her birth generated renewed interest in her music, much of which has been recorded by groups such as The Anonymous 4, Gothic Voices and Sequentia.

Extractions: A 6 page research paper that examines the career of Frederick Douglass, who was born into slavery, but who used h is extraordinary intellect and incredible determination to obtain his freedom and advance the cause of African Americans still held in bondage in the antebellum South. The writer discusses how Douglass believed that political empowerment could provide the means necessary for African Americans to rise out of their situation and find equality in the culture that had enslaved them. Annotated Bibliography lists 10 sources. A 10 page paper which examines the perspectives maintained by Frederick Douglass as they address the relationship with Mr. Covey. The perspectives are those seen in his first work, "The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass" written in 1845, and those which are seen in his later work of 1881 titled "Life and Times of Frederick Douglass." The two perspectives each offer us a unique look at the importance of the struggles Frederick Douglass had with Mr. Covey, a slaveholder. Bibliography lists additional sources.
