The omission of her name from Shakespeare's will has been interpreted as evidence that she was nothing more than an unfortunate mistake from which Shakespeare did well to distance himself.   Yet Shakespeare is above all the poet of marriage. Before Shakespeare there were few comedies or tragedies of wooing and wedding. Tragedies were not about loving 'not wisely but too well' but about the fall of illustrious men. Comedies were not about the pitfalls that lay in wait along the path of true love but about getting away with adultery. In play after play Shakespeare presents the finding of a worthy wife as a triumphant denouement. Again and again in Shakespeare's plays constant wives redeem unjust and deluded husbands, but scholars persist in believing that Shakespeare's own wife was no help to him and even that he hated her.   Social historians have avoided becoming embroiled in the Shakespeare industry and Shakespearean scholars have steered clear of social history. In  Shakespeare's Wife  Germaine Greer combines literary-historical techniques with documentary evidence about life in Stratford, striving to re-embed the story of Shakespeare's marriage in its social context. Her book presents a new and more fruitful set of hypotheses about the life and career of the farmer's daughter who married our greatest poet. Though the suggestions made in this book are certainly daring, against such a carefully researched background they appear less improbable than the prejudices so freely expressed by Shakespearean scholars.  \r\n\r\n  Shakespeare's Wife  is a compelling, insightful book that already goes some way to right the wrongs done to Ann Shakespeare. Greer steps off the well-trodden paths of orthodoxy, asks new questions and opens new fields of investigation and research.\r","authors":["Germaine Greer"],"category_codes":["1000000","1060000","1060100"],"visuals":{"large":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/702\/9780747591702_1_75.jpg","medium":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/702\/9780747591702_1_m.jpg","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/702\/9780747591702_1_v.jpg"},"orderable":true,"show_badge":true,"formatted_price":"18,80 \u20ac","formatted_published_date":"17 ao\u00fbt 2007","publisher_availability_label":"Sur commande","short_details":"Germaine Greer \u2014 Bloomsbury UK","translator":null,"weight":536,"page_count":406,"readership":null,"editor":"Bloomsbury UK","price":1880,"published_date":"2007-08-16T22:00:00.000000Z","support":"Grand format","publisher_availability":1,"stock":0,"editions":["9780747593003"],"url":"https:\/\/quaidesbrumes.com\/ouvrage\/9780747591702\/shakespeares-wife"},{"id":"9780747594765","title":"Gabriel Garcia Marquez: A Life","description":"Describes the tension in the author's life between celebrity and literary quality, between politics and writing; and between power, solitude and love; and the contrast between his Caribbean background and the gloomier authoritarianism of highland Bogota.\r","authors":["Gerald Martin"],"category_codes":["1000000","1060000","1060100"],"visuals":{"large":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/765\/9780747594765_1_75.jpg","medium":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/765\/9780747594765_1_m.jpg","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/765\/9780747594765_1_v.jpg"},"orderable":true,"show_badge":true,"formatted_price":"33,80 \u20ac","formatted_published_date":"29 octobre 2008","publisher_availability_label":"Sur commande","short_details":"Gerald Martin \u2014 Bloomsbury UK","translator":null,"weight":1102,"page_count":664,"readership":null,"editor":"Bloomsbury UK","price":3380,"published_date":"2008-10-28T23:00:00.000000Z","support":"Grand format","publisher_availability":1,"stock":0,"editions":["9780747596141"],"url":"https:\/\/quaidesbrumes.com\/ouvrage\/9780747594765\/gabriel-garcia-marquez-a-life"},{"id":"9780747596158","title":"Marrying Anita","description":"Witty, confessional memoir about a single Indian-American woman who suspects that maybe her parents are right and arranged marriages ARE the route to happiness\r","authors":["Anita Jain"],"category_codes":["1000000","1060000","1060100"],"visuals":{"large":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/158\/9780747596158_1_75.jpg","medium":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/158\/9780747596158_1_m.jpg","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/158\/9780747596158_1_v.jpg"},"orderable":true,"show_badge":true,"formatted_price":"14,80 \u20ac","formatted_published_date":"17 juin 2009","publisher_availability_label":"Sur commande","short_details":"Anita Jain \u2014 Bloomsbury UK","translator":null,"weight":213,"page_count":307,"readership":null,"editor":"Bloomsbury UK","price":1480,"published_date":"2009-06-16T22:00:00.000000Z","support":"Poche","publisher_availability":1,"stock":0,"editions":[],"url":"https:\/\/quaidesbrumes.com\/ouvrage\/9780747596158\/marrying-anita"},{"id":"9780747596370","title":"The Bush Tragedy ; The Unmaking of a President","description":"Analyses George W Bush through familial, personal, political and historical relationships.

Thompson, who would become America's bestselling \"gonzo journalist,\" completed a year-long journey across South America, filing a series of dispatches for a now-defunct paper called the National Observer. With the gritty humor and keen political observations for which he later became known, correspondent Thompson reflected on topics that continue to make headlines today: the rise of leftist populism, struggles over resource extraction, the marginalization of indigenous peoples.  In The Footloose American, Brian Kevin traverses the continent with Thompson's ghost as his guide, offering a ground-level exploration of twenty-first-century South American culture, politics, and ecology.

You know, she was 13, and she had that sparkle. So much sparkle dust around her' - Renee Bell, head of A&R at RCA Records\r\nMeet Taylor, 2003. She's a teen who came to Nashville with blisters on her fingers from learning to play a 12-string guitar. In every room she enters, she's the youngest person (by decades) and often the only woman. And if anyone asked if she could see herself becoming the biggest superstar on the planet, her answer probably would have been yes.\r\nWriting alongside industry veterans after school, Taylor Swift's song-writing ability set her apart. But her origins are more complex than a teen tapping into a new generation of country music fans. It's a story of taking risks, like walking away from powerhouse label RCA to strike out with an unknown, unfunded new label, and of trusting her instincts when no one else did.\r\nWashington Post reporter Emily Yahr pulls back the curtain on the country music industry?from executives who said yes to Taylor (and those who regret saying no), to collaborators like Scott Borchetta, Nathan Chapman, and Liz Rose, to Nashville itself. Intimate and immersive, Yahr takes us to iconic locations like Music Row and The Bluebird Cafe, as well as to Hendersonville High and the Swifts' own lakefront house.\r\nTaylor Swift: The Debut Years tells the definitive origin story of today's biggest star, with never-before-published interviews.

Albert,  Paris: Les Boulevards  is a true gem that was forgotten for well over a century but will now enchant readers once again in this charming facsimile edition. Pariss romantic architecture and vibrant street culture make it one of the most enjoyable cities in the world to stroll and people watch in. This charming little illustrated volume by Charles Franck captures just that through delicately rendered Victorian-era illustrations of panoramic cityscapes of the most gorgeous Parisian boulevards. Complete with horse buggies in the streets, women in society hats, and men in coattails,  Paris: Les Boulevards  highlights a nostalgic era in both fashion and architecture. To further add to the charm, this volume honors its original unique binding with eleven gatefolds: each page folds out to six panels displaying the whole of the famous promenades at once. With pages including boulevard des Italiens, avenue de lOp\u00e9ra, and boulevard Montmartre, Parisians and tourists alike will savor Francks beautiful and meticulous re-creations of the citys most important streets and their buildings. Added to the original book are thoughtful texts on each panel and an introduction by author and curator, Pamela Golbin. Each panoramic image is brought into historical context by Golbin with short anecdotes and musings on famous addresses and landmarks that may or may not still exist. The original book can only be found in one other library in the world, so little is known about the original publication date or the author, adding further captivation to this volume. Paris remains one of the most romantic and dreamy cities in the world, and for this  Paris: Les Boulevards  will be perfect for those of all ages smitten with the citys charms.\r","authors":["Franck Charles\/Golbi"],"category_codes":["1000000","1060000","1060100"],"visuals":{"large":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/040\/9780847845040_1_75.jpg","medium":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/040\/9780847845040_1_m.jpg","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/040\/9780847845040_1_v.jpg"},"orderable":true,"show_badge":true,"formatted_price":"29,95 \u20ac","formatted_published_date":"28 f\u00e9vrier 2015","publisher_availability_label":"Sur commande","short_details":"Franck Charles\/Golbi \u2014 Rizzoli","translator":null,"weight":347,"page_count":8,"readership":null,"editor":"Rizzoli","price":2995,"published_date":"2015-02-27T23:00:00.000000Z","support":"Grand format","publisher_availability":1,"stock":0,"editions":[],"url":"https:\/\/quaidesbrumes.com\/ouvrage\/9780847845040\/paris-les-boulevards"},{"id":"9780847858057","title":"AMERICAN BEAUTY","description":null,"authors":["Kenny Rogers"],"category_codes":["1000000","1060000","1060100"],"visuals":{"large":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/057\/9780847858057_1_75.jpg","medium":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/057\/9780847858057_1_m.jpg","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/057\/9780847858057_1_v.jpg"},"orderable":true,"show_badge":true,"formatted_price":"28,10 \u20ac","formatted_published_date":"15 avril 2012","publisher_availability_label":"Sur commande","short_details":"Kenny Rogers \u2014 Rizzoli","translator":null,"weight":0,"page_count":null,"readership":null,"editor":"Rizzoli","price":2810,"published_date":"2012-04-14T22:00:00.000000Z","support":"Grand format","publisher_availability":1,"stock":0,"editions":[],"url":"https:\/\/quaidesbrumes.com\/ouvrage\/9780847858057\/american-beauty"},{"id":"9780794601737","title":"Cool Hotels ; India, Maldives, Sri Lanka","description":"A select review of the Indian sub-continent's most unique hotels and resorts.

As president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and then as President Barack Obamas secretary of the Treasury, Timothy F. Geithner helped the United States navigate the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression, from boom to bust to rescue to recovery. In a candid, riveting, and historically illuminating memoir, he takes readers behind the scenes of the crisis, explaining the hard choices and politically unpalatable decisions he made to repair a broken financial system and prevent the collapse of the Main Street economy. This is the inside story of how a small group of policy makers--in a thick fog of uncertainty, with unimaginably high stakes--helped avoid a second depression but lost the American people doing it.  Stress Test  is also a valuable guide to how governments can better manage financial crises, because this one wont be the last.   Stress Test  reveals a side of Secretary Geithner the public has never seen, starting with his childhood as an American abroad. He recounts his early days as a young Treasury official helping to fight the international financial crises of the 1990s, then describes what he saw, what he did, and what he missed at the New York Fed before the Wall Street boom went bust. He takes readers inside the room as the crisis began, intensified, and burned out of control, discussing the most controversial episodes of his tenures at the New York Fed and the Treasury, including the rescue of Bear Stearns; the harrowing weekend when Lehman Brothers failed; the searing crucible of the AIG rescue as well as the furor over the firms lavish bonuses; the battles inside the Obama administration over his widely criticized but ultimately successful plan to end the crisis; and the bracing fight for the most sweeping financial reforms in more than seventy years. Secretary Geithner also describes the aftershocks of the crisis, including the administrations efforts to address high unemployment, a series of brutal political battles over deficits and debt, and the drama over Europes repeated flirtations with the economic abyss.   Secretary Geithner is not a politician, but he has things to say about politics--the silliness, the nastiness, the toll it took on his family. But in the end,  Stress Test  is a hopeful story about public service. In this revealing memoir, Tim Geithner explains how America withstood the ultimate stress test of its political and financial systems.\r","authors":["Timothy F.

In early August 1889, C\u00e9sar Ritz, a Swiss hotelier highly regarded for his exquisite taste, found himself at the Savoy Hotel in London. He had come at the request of Richard D'Oyly Carte, the financier of Gilbert & Sullivan's comic operas, who had modernized theater and was now looking to create the world's best hotel. D'Oyly Carte soon seduced Ritz to move to London with his team, which included Auguste Escoffier, the  chef de cuisine  known for his elevated, original dishes. The result was a hotel and restaurant like no one had ever experienced, run in often mysterious and always extravagant ways--which created quite a scandal once exposed.  ;;;; Barr deftly re-creates the thrilling Belle Epoque era just before World War I, when British aristocracy was at its peak, women began dining out unaccompanied by men, and American nouveaux riches and gauche industrialists convened in London to show off their wealth. In their collaboration at the still celebrated Savoy Hotel, where they welcomed loyal and sometimes salacious clients, such as Oscar Wilde and Sarah Bernhardt, Escoffier created the modern kitchen brigade and codified French cuisine for the ages in his seminal  Le Guide culinaire,  which remains in print today, and Ritz, whose name continues to grace the finest hotels across the world, created the world's first luxury hotel. The pair also ruffled more than a few feathers in the process. Fine dining would never be the same--or more intriguing.\r","authors":["Luke Barr"],"category_codes":["1000000","1060000","1060100"],"visuals":{"large":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/292\/9780804186292_1_75.jpg","medium":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/292\/9780804186292_1_m.jpg","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/292\/9780804186292_1_v.jpg"},"orderable":true,"show_badge":true,"formatted_price":"24,80 \u20ac","formatted_published_date":"3 avril 2018","publisher_availability_label":"Sur commande","short_details":"Luke Barr \u2014 Clarkson Potter","translator":null,"weight":477,"page_count":312,"readership":null,"editor":"Clarkson Potter","price":2480,"published_date":"2018-04-02T22:00:00.000000Z","support":"Grand format","publisher_availability":1,"stock":0,"editions":[],"url":"https:\/\/quaidesbrumes.com\/ouvrage\/9780804186292\/ritz-escoffier-the-hotelier-the-chef-and-the-rise-of-the-leisure-class"},{"id":"9780805093544","title":"Stories i only tell my friends","description":"Rob Lowe is teen idol at fifteen, international icon and founder of the Brat Pack at twenty, and one of Hollywood's top stars.
