Writing the ThamesChristina Hardyment
Thames aficionado Robert Gibbings once wrote
that ‘the quiet of an age-old river is like the slow
turning of the pages of a well-loved book’.
Writing the Thames tells a much-loved river’s
story through the remarkable prose, poetry and
illustration that it has inspired. In eight themed
chapters it features historical events such as Julius
Caesar’s crossing in 55 bce and Elizabeth I’s stand
against the Spanish at Tilbury, explorations of
topographers who mapped, drew and painted the
river and the many congenial riverside retreats for
authors ranging from Francis Bacon, Thomas More
and Alexander Pope to Thomas Love Peacock,
William Morris and Henry James. A chapter on
messing about in boats tells the story of William
Hogarth’s impulsive five-day river trip with four
inebriated friends and features satirical novels
making fun of frenetic rowers (Zuleika Dobson)
and young London men-about-town on camping
holidays (Three Men in a Boat).
The river has also inspired some of the best
children’s literature (The Wind in the Willows)
and naturalists such as Richard Jeffries and
C.J. Cornish (A Naturalist on the Thames) have
recorded the richness of its wildlife. But there are
also dark undercurrents: Charles Dickens’s use
of its waters as a symbol of death, Sax Rohmer’s
Limehouse villain Dr Fu Manchu, and the many
fictional criminals who dispose of corpses in its
sinister depths in detective novels ranging from
Sherlock Holmes to Inspector Morse. Beautifully
illustrated, this book celebrates the writers who
have helped to make England’s greatest river an
enduring legend.
Christina Hardyment is a writer and journalist
with a special interest in social history and
literary geography.

I Told You I Was Sick… and Other epitaphsEdited by Samuel Fanous
Epitaphs are a unique artform. In previous
centuries they were regarded as an opportunity to
celebrate, mourn, reflect on, philosophize, lament,
or affirm the individual and the mystery of life and
death, often giving rise to carefully crafted verse.
In more recent times, humour has come into play:
Spike Milligan’s characteristically irreverent epitaph
– which translates as ‘I told you I was ill’ – gives
new life to his comedic voice beyond the grave.
This book brings together over 250 epitaphs from
cemeteries, churchyards, funerary monuments
and historical records. The gravestones of famous
people often give rise to memorable and evocative
lines, such as ‘curst be he that moves my bones’
(Shakespeare’s grave), ‘Horseman, pass by!’(W.B.
Yeats) or ‘Called back’ (Emily Dickinson).
144 pages, 185 x 120 mm
ISBN: 978 1 85124 451 5
Hardback, £9.99 April 2016
Others tell us something about the cause of
death, frequently invoking a macabre sense of
humour: ‘Here lies John Ross / Kicked by a Hoss’.
More often there is a wry tone which characterizes
the most well-known epitaphs, combining rhyme
and humour:
Remember friend as you pass by
As you are now so once was I.
As I am now you will surely be
Prepare thyself to follow me.
This book spans the centuries with
the best and most intriguing
examples of the final word.

Famous Last WordsEdited by Claire Cock-Starkey
Who said ‘I should have drunk more champagne’?
Did Nelson really utter ‘Kiss me Hardy’ from his
deathbed? Which statesman was, at the end,
‘bored with it all’? Which king begged, ‘Let not
poor Nelly starve …’
An extraordinary number of deathbed sayings
have been recorded over the years, some proving
irresistible to embellishment, others displaying wry
humour, still more showing remarkable lucidity in
the final hours of life.
The last words of politicians, kings, queens,
actors, philosophers, scientists and writers are
sometimes profound, sometimes prescient, often
strange, funny and usually poignant. They can
reveal the essence of an extraordinary life or tell us
something about a celebrated person’s final hours.
In our ultimate moments, it seems, we are not
averse to cracking a joke, losing our temper
or begging for help from those we are leaving
behind. The most interesting, controversial and
insightful of these exit lines are collected here,
from deathbed desperation to the fondest of
farewells.
Claire Cock-Starkey was series editor of Schott’s
Almanac, her latest book How to Skin a Lion was
published in 2015.

Shakespeare’s Deadstages of Death in shakespeare’s PlayworldsSimon Palfrey and Emma Smith
Pyramus: ‘Now die, die, die, die, die.’ [Dies]
A Midsummer Night’s Dream
At the 400th anniversary of his death,
Shakespeare could hardly be more alive, in
theatre, in popular culture, in scholarship. And
death in Shakespeare’s plays likewise tends
to affirm or transform life: in the memory of
characters or in their speeches, in the living body
of the actor, in the refusal of his characters to
go quietly, in the ubiquity of ghosts, elegies and
resurrections, and in the fact that theatre can go
to places that everyday life cannot.
The ingenious ways of dying in Shakespeare,
from suicide to murder, and from workaday
dagger to baroque pie recipe, are all documented
in this book. They show how the playwright
choreographs death as a moment of discovery
as much as destruction. Underpinning this is the
idea that a character may die, but the actor does
not. Death on stage is literally impossible – a fact
parodied by Bottom's performance as Pyramus
in A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Instead of the
blank finality of death, we get a unique entrance
into the stages of dying, as experienced by all of
Shakespeare's greatest tragic figures.
This book, illustrated with contemporary drawings
and images from stage history, establishes the
cultural, religious and social contexts for thinking
about early modern death. But it also shows
how death on stage disrupts and refashions
contemporary attitudes and practices, showing
how Shakespeare’s funerals, epitaphs and scenes
of mourning are often undercut by their staged
inauthenticity or interrupted by intrusions of the
vulgarly living. This book celebrates the paradox:
life in death in Shakespeare.
Simon Palfrey is Professor of English Literature
and Tutorial Fellow at Brasenose College, Oxford.
Emma Smith is Fellow and Tutor in English at
Hertford College, Oxford.

Oxford in Prints1650–1900Peter Whitfield
For more than three centuries Oxford has been
the subject of fine illustrated books and engraved
prints. These exquisitely made illustrations have
become part of the historical record, showing how
Oxford’s identity is rooted in the past and tracing
a history of the city’s development through the
architecture of its most beautiful colleges and
university buildings.
Prints made by David Loggan in the seventeenth
century show us a university where the medieval
origins are already largely overlaid by Tudor
and Stuart rebuilding. The engravings in the
eighteenth-century Oxford Almanacks illustrate a
city dominated by neo-classical ideas, while those
of the nineteenth century show an increasingly
romantic feel for the architecture against its

natural background of sky, trees and river. Hand-
coloured etchings published by Ackermann in the
nineteenth century and Ingram’s Memorials of
Oxford of 1837 offer a nostalgic portrait of Oxford
before development changed it into the modern
city it is today.
The best of these historic prints are reproduced
here to create a panorama of classical Oxford,
with an accompanying text describing the origin
of each building, institution or public event,
together with the salient features of their history.
Together they offer an instructive and captivating
view of Oxford through the ages.
Peter Whitfield writes on history, literary criticism
and poetry. He is the author of Travel: A Literary
History (2011) and Mapping Shakespeare (2015).

cartography – and an early world map from the
medieval Islamic Book of Curiosities, together with
more recent examples of fictional places drawn in
the twentieth century, such as C.S. Lewis’s own map
of Narnia and J.R.R. Tolkien’s map of
Middle Earth.
As well as the works of famous mapmakers
Mercator, Ortelius, Blaeu, Saxton and Speed, the
book also includes lesser known but historically
significant works: early maps of the Moon, of the
transit of Venus, hand-drawn estate plans and early
European maps of the New World. There are also
some surprising examples: escape maps printed
on silk and carried by pilots in the Second World
War in case of capture on enemy territory; the first
geological survey of the British Isles showing what
lies beneath our feet; a sixteenth-century woven
tapestry map of Worcestershire; a map plotting
outbreaks of cholera and a jigsaw map of India
from the 1850s. Behind each of these lies a story,
of intrepid surveyors, ambitious navigators, chance
finds or military victories. Drawing on the unique
collection in the Bodleian Library, these stunning
maps range from single cities to the solar system,
span the thirteenth to the twenty-first century and
cover most of the world.

Room of the Bodleian Library.

The Story of BabarJean de Brunhoff
Babar the elephant’s happy days in the forest are
shattered when a wicked huntsman shoots his
mother. Scared and sad, Babar runs away to the
city. Here he meets the Old Lady who buys him
a red car and a green suit and a professor who
gives him lessons. But although he enjoys telling
his new friends about life in the great forest, he
misses his mother, and the monkeys, so when he
finds his elephant cousins, who have come to the
city on their own adventure, he drives them back
to their homeland. There he is crowned King of the
Elephants and his cousin Celeste becomes queen.
The adventures of Babar the little elephant have
delighted generations of children ever since his
first appearance in 1931. This classic children’s
story, the first in the Babar series, is reissued as a
beautiful gift edition. It is perfect for rediscovering
this charming story and its perennially popular
characters.
Jean de Brunhoff was a French artist and
illustrator who wrote seven books in the Babar the
Elephant series. His work had a major influence on
the development of the picture book.

VeronicaRoger Duvoisin
Veronica the hippopotamus lives with her large
family on the cool muddy river bank, swimming in
its clear waters. But she is not happy. She dreams
of becoming a conspicuous hippopotamus, even
perhaps, a famous one, noticed by everyone.
So she sets off, looking for adventure. In the city
she discovers that there are many confusing rules
about how you can move around, where you
can sleep and what you can eat, and that police
stations are not made with hippopotamuses in
mind. Will she find her way back to her safe,
muddy home? And will her dream of becoming a
conspicuous hippopotamus ever be realized?
Roger Duvoisin was a renowned Swiss-born
American author-illustrator who created the Happy
Lion and Petunia series of picture books, along
with more than 40 other titles for children. He was
awarded the Caldecott medal in 1947.

Pocket Magna Carta1217 Text and Translation
‘No freeman is to be taken or imprisoned, or dispossessed … except through the lawful judgment of his peers or through the law of the land.’
‘To no one shall we sell, to no one shall we deny or delay right or justice.’
Magna Carta (or ‘Great Charter’ of English Liberties)
is one of the most important documents in legal history.
Originating as a peace treaty agreed between King
John and a group of powerful barons at Runnymede
near Windsor on 15 June 1215, it enshrined in law
the concept of individual liberty and defined the role
of the monarch towards the people. The charter was
successively revised and reissued throughout the
thirteenth century by England’s monarchs, and the ideas
expressed in it had a profound influence, as seen in the
United States Constitution and Bill of Rights.
The Latin text of one version of this landmark
document (the 1217 issue of Henry III) is transcribed
here in full, together with a modern translation and an
introduction which traces the background to the making
of the charter and its subsequent revisions through the
centuries. It also explains how this text has become an
enduring symbol of freedom in Britain and throughout
the world.

Type is BeautifulThe story of Fifty Remarkable FontsSimon Loxley
Behind every typeface is a story – who designed
it, and why? What are its distinctive characteristics,
and what cultural baggage does it carry?
This book explores fifty of the most remarkable
typefaces, dating from the birth of European
printing in the fifteenth century (and the type
used in the Gutenberg Bible – the first significant
book to be printed in Europe) to the present
day. It features key examples in the aesthetic
development of typography (Caslon, Baskerville,
Bodoni) and those fonts which have made a
significant impact on the wider world.
Many fonts have added style to something
culturally important (such as Johnston Sans on
the London Underground), or assumed a cultural
significance of their own, sometimes by accident.
The designer of Comic Sans, for example,
created the typeface for use in speech bubbles
for a Microsoft programme, never expecting it to
become one of the world’s favourite – and also
most maligned – fonts.
Through the fonts this book also examines the
often colourful lives of the key designers in the
evolution of typography: Johannes Gutenberg,

and William Morris, among others – including
one who threw his unique set of metal type into
the Thames to prevent others from misusing it
– and the enduring influence they have had on
print culture.
Of equal appeal to general readers, designers
and typographers, this book is a vibrant cultural
guide to the aesthetic choices we make in order
to spread the word.

The Book Lovers’ Anthology
A Compendium of writing about Books, Readers and Libraries
‘Choose an author as you choose a friend’ – W. Dillon
‘A blessed companion is a book – a book that,
fitly chosen, is a life-long friend,’ wrote Douglas
William Jerrold, over a hundred years ago. Major
writers through the centuries have turned their
minds to the subject of books, often with humour,
sometimes with exasperation, always with
affection.
Between the covers of this rich selection are
excerpts from the poetry of Chaucer, Shakespeare,
Wordsworth, Milton and Donne, among many
others. Novelists such as Austen, Dickens, Eliot and
Swift have often paused in their fiction to extol
the virtues of libraries, books and ‘the pleasant
smell of paper freshly pressed’, or to satirize
them mercilessly. Interspersed with these are the
meditations of the great diarists and essayists
of past centuries – Johnson, Boswell, Macaulay,
Ruskin and Montaigne – writing in letters, journals
and lectures on the vital importance of ‘bright
books’ to the intellectual life of the nation.
Can books corrupt? How do badly written books
help the serious reader? How rife is plagiarism?
Does reading excessively damage your eyesight?
Which is the best-loved library? These questions
and many more are vigorously discussed in this
essential anthology for bibliophiles.

tenant of a modern flat should find it easy to readjust his life

said hints can also be cut out, mounted on stiff parchment,

flat for a lampshade).’

made the city what it is today – and written about
it variously with affection, loyalty, disgust and
amazement.
London in Quotations

New York in Quotations
Over the last three-and-a-half centuries this

a multitude of thinkers, poets, novelists and
playwrights, many of whom have brilliantly
encapsulated its unique spirit through verse,
prose or the ultimate wisecrack.
Oxford in Quotations
Since its humble beginnings as a ford for oxen
across the river Thames in the tenth century,
Oxford has been an inspiration to generations
of writers and thinkers, who have admired its
‘dreaming spires’, or warned of its excesses.
Paris in Quotations
Describing the capital variously as a city of lovers,
gastronomy, fashion and filth, myriad quotations
– sometimes poetic, sometimes humorous and
always fizzing with insight – are collected here.

A Pocket Guide to Vietnam, 1962Foreword by Bruns Grayson, Vietnam Veteran, US Army
This rather unassuming Pocket Guide was designed to instil in the
American soldier an understanding of and respect for the Vietnamese,
so as to gain their support. In less than 8,000 words, the author of the
Pocket Guide creates a highly sympathetic account of Vietnam’s history,
culture, politics, infrastructure, geography, and people. The author
stresses shared values common to both the United States and Vietnam.
Viewed from the intervening distance of four decades, this is a
fascinating comment on the political aspirations of a former age.
It remains a compelling introduction to the enduring qualities of
Vietnamese culture.

it does about British hopes and fears.

Parodying the famous Bayeux Tapestry, Hassall uses
