| Nelson: Love and Fame
Author: Edgar Vincent
Publisher: Yale University Press
Publication date: 2004
Number of pages: 688
Format / Quality: pdf/high quality
Size: 2,72 Mb
Vincent has interwoven two separate strands--the professional and the emotional--of Horatio Nelson's life into one superlative biography of the man and the hero. While Nelson's military exploits are all well-documented, and his infamous affair with Lady Emma Hamilton common knowledge, the author probes beneath the surface of the obvious, plumbing the depths of a man with an insatiable desire for admiration and attention. An energetic and charismatic leader who inspired devotion among all who served under him, his personal and martial triumphs were paradoxically rooted in both his insecurity and his egomania. Like most larger-than-life figures, Nelson was a mass of contradictions and extremes. Rather than paralyzing him, these opposing personality forces served to energize and motivate him in public and private matters. This definitive chronicle is underscored by Vincent's astute analysis of Nelson's intimate persona as well as his celebrity status.

* Navigate Britain like a native
* Fully illustrated; rich in information
Britain is culturally blessed. Few nations rival the rich history, artistic achievement or contemporary verve of this, the original island nation. Even the food is good these days, its variety indicative of an eclectic, multicultural society. Speak the Culture: Britain peels back the layers of this rich heritage, exploring the factors that make Britain tick.
British culture is strewn with names that touch a chord the world over: William Shakespeare, Robert Burns, Charles Dickens, Conan Doyle, Vivienne Westward, Lennon and McCartney to name a very few. They rank high among the icons of Western civilization. What were their main achievements? How did they shape and reflect British culture? Speak the Culture: Britain examines the work and the personalities behind the names, pulling out the key information in easily digested, entertaining chunks.
The culture of everyday life is also revealed, exploring the variation between the English, Scots and Welsh, and dissecting how they approach life; how they eat, socialize, vote, dress and laugh.
Travel books on Britain are out there by the dozen, so are language guides. Speak the Culture: Britain sits alongside such books in a niche of its own, offering visitors, business travellers, new residents, students and anglophiles everywhere a beautifully designed and illustrated guide to the soul of Britain

| Watching the English (The Hidden Rules of English Behaviour)
Author: Kate Fox
Publisher: Hodder & Stoughton
Publication date: 11 April 2005
ISBN: 0340818867
Number of pages: 157
Language: English
Format / Quality: PDF в ZIP-архиве, изначально компьютерное
Size: 691 KB
Книга-справочник по британской культуре. Автор с юмором повествует о том, как и почему англичане ведут себя так или иначе в различных сферах жизни. Раскрывает особенности поведения, речи, выбора одежды, оформления домов, садов и газонов перед парадным крыльцом; отношений между различными классами. Цитирует "подслушанные" в пабах, очередях, на вечеринках, в общественном транспорте диалоги.
В книге описывается стандартное поведение британцев различных слоёв общества в той или иной ситуации. Есть раздел, где даётся сравнительный анализ лексических предпочтений более низких слоёв общества и upper-middle класса.
***
In Watching the English, Kate Fox takes a revealing look at the quirks, habits and foibles of the English people. She puts the English national character under her anthropological microscope, and finds a strange and fascinating culture, governed by complex sets of unspoken rules and Byzantine codes of behaviour. Her minute observation of the way we talk, dress, eat, drink, work, play, shop, drive, flirt, fight, queue – and moan about it all – exposes the hidden rules that we all unconsciously obey.
Englishness is not a matter of birth, race, colour or creed: it is a mindset, based on a set of behaviour-codes that anyone can decipher and apply – now that Kate Fox has provided the key.

Author: Torbjörn Lundmark
Hardcover: 262 pages
Publisher: Cambridge University Press; 1 edition
Date: November 9, 2009
Language: English
Цитата:
We do it over and over again, day after day, and never seem to get enough of it. Albanians do it. Zulus do it. Movie stars and plumbers do it. All around the world, people say hi and bye in innumerable languages and countless ways: they wave and bow and curtsey and shake hands and rub noses and fist-bump and mwah-mwah and perform a vast array of greeting and farewell rituals, so common and natural that no-one stops to notice ... Tales of Hi and Bye provides a delightful, witty, and intriguing insight into the sometimes strange and often wonderful customs associated with an ordinary, everyday event.

| Michael Wood’s Story of England – Domesday to Magna Carta (2010)
Format: avi
Size: 600 Mb
Цитата:
Historian Michael Wood shines an intimate light on the lives of ordinary people over the last 2,000 years in this fascinating new series. Set in the Leicestershire village of Kibworth, the series tells the story of one place through the whole of English history, with the people – not the rulers – at the centre of the narrative.
Kibworth is modern Britain in miniature: located in the very heart of England and split now by the A6, it’s the kind of place you could drive through without giving it a second thought. But, like most places in England, scrape just beneath the surface and you discover an incredibly rich historical tapestry.
The first episode delves into the roots of the Kibworth community, its ancestors and landscape, exploring the deep past that shaped the village and its people. With the help of the local people and using archaeology, landscape language and
DNA, Michael begins to uncover the lost history of the first thousand years of the village.
More than 250 villagers unite in digging up their own back gardens to unearth artefacts and look into the history that’s all around them. A staggering 55 test pits were dug over one weekend, the largest number ever in a single place, and a
wealth of evidence discovered: pottery from the Roman and Anglo-Saxon periods all the way through to the Middle Ages; debris of Georgian coaching inns; frame knitters’ workshops; and railway navvies’ camps.
In Michael Wood’s Story Of England the stage is set. From the Romans to the Vikings, from the Black Death to the civil war, this series lays bare a history peopled by fascinating real-life characters, including Tudor teachers, highwaymen, Suffragettes and First World War soldiers.
