essential beauty hours: Ode to a Nightingale John Keats, 2017-11-15 Ode to a Nightingale is either the garden of the Spaniards Inn, Hampstead, London, or, according to Keats' friend Charles Armitage Brown, under a plum tree in the garden of Keats House, also in Hampstead.

It soon became one of his 1819 odes and was first published in Annals of the Fine Arts the following July.

After his time at the Academy he was commissioned as a Subaltern in the 1st King's Dragoon Guards where he began his military career. He rose through the ranks and in 1902, due to fears of Russian expansion, the now Major Younghusband, was promoted to the position of British Commisioner to Tibet, a post he held until 1904.

essential beauty hours: Fat, Fate, and Disease Peter Gluckman, Mark Hanson, 2012-01-26 'Why are we losing the war against obesity and chronic disease?' This is the simple question Peter Gluckman and Mark Hanson ask, exploring the dominant myth that the exploding epidemic of obesity, heart disease, and diabetes can be tackled by focusing on adult life styles. Addressing the flawed approach of the weight-loss industry, they explain why a continued focus simply on diet and exercise will fail. Highlighting the implications of the growing burden of these problems in the developing world, they show that the scientific enterprise ignores the reality of the social, cultural, and biological determinants that make different populations and people respond differently to living in the modern nutritionally rich world. Gluckman and Hanson review the overwhelming scientific evidence that much of the problem emerges in early life and even before birth, identifying that to address these issues requires considering development in two dimensions - a life course approach and addressing the developmental challenges of countries emerging through the socioeconomic transition. Asking why the major global bodies and vested interests fail to consider these dimensions and continue with failed approaches, they conclude by discussing the complex interactions between health and the food industry, and suggest that the food industry must be co-opted as an ally in this battle, providing a clear pathway forward. |

essential beauty hours: People and the Countryside H. E. Bracey, 2025-04-01 Rapid and radical changes were taking place in the countryside. Originally published in 1970, People and the Countryside discusses the legislation affecting the countryside which appeared in the late 1940s and the work of the Countryside in 1970 Conferences with which the author had been closely connected. The book examines the role played by man in the shaping of the British landscape, and discusses the considerable changes there have been in our time in, for example, the number and distribution of people over the country and the availability of work in the countryside. Dr Bracey assesses the influence of developments in mobility on life in the country, and looks at rural local government with especial regard to land-use planning. As more people used more of the countryside for many new purposes, there was a growing concern about access to open spaces, common land and forest, and about the provision of facilities and the conservation of amenities. Dr Bracey shows how the Countryside Act of 1968, which he describes as a townsman’s charter for the greater use of the countryside for recreation, at the same time pays heed to the needs of the countryside and the claims of country people. The final chapters of the book look at the Government White Paper, ‘Leisure in the Countryside’, and explore its real meaning in the context of leisure in general, the recreational use of land, the facilities needed for exploiting and conserving countryside amenities, and the need for ‘management’ of the countryside in the 1970s. Today it can be read in its historical context. |

essential beauty hours: The Idea of Time in Shakespeare’s Sonnets Heiner Uebbing, 2021-10-21 Bachelor Thesis from the year 2014 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1,6, University of Leipzig (Anglistics), language: English, abstract: In this thesis essential sonnets of Shakespeare will be analysed thoroughly and examined for proof of a narrative that addresses philosophical thoughts on the concept of time and characterises it as an antagonist in a fight with the poet character over his subject of affection, the young friend and his beauty. While the sonnets are usually treated as individual pieces of work, there are connections between them one cannot oversee when reading them consecutively. The idea of time is one of those connections and a case can be made that it is a constant character in this series of sonnets. This description of the concept of time concurrently brings to mind the poet character‟s protagonist role in the sequence. Since the sonnets are read through his perspective, the reader is inevitably inclined to take his side as well. The third major character, the young friend, can thus be regarded as the subject of affection for the protagonist. Thus, the sonnets can be seen as a narrative containing three major characters and their journey. |
essential beauty hours: John Keats: Lamia (Unabridged Edition) John Keats, 2015-04-26 This carefully crafted ebook: John Keats: Lamia (Unabridged Edition) is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. Lamia is a narrative poem, that tells how the god Hermes hears of a nymph who is more beautiful than all. Hermes, searching for the nymph, instead comes across a Lamia, trapped in the form of a serpent. She reveals the previously invisible nymph to him and in return he restores her human form. She goes to seek a youth of Corinth, Lycius, while Hermes and his nymph depart together into the woods. The relationship between Lycius and Lamia, however, is destroyed when the sage Apollonius reveals Lamia's true identity at their wedding feast, whereupon she seemingly disappears and Lycius dies of grief. Also, Keats's poem had a deep influence on Edgar Allan Poe's sonnet To Science. John Keats (1795 - 1821) was an English Romantic poet. The poetry of Keats is characterized by sensual imagery, most notably in the series of odes. Today his poems and letters are some of the most popular and most analyzed in English literature.
