read - understand - play

What does a chess player need who is familiar with the rules, but often gets into trouble right away in the opening? This question was the starting point for the authors before they began to compile the material for a two-volume work about the English Opening.
Volume 1 (published in 2024) deals with the Symmetrical Variation 1.c2-c4 c7-c5 and some rarely played side lines.
Volume 2 covers the continuations 1.c4 e5 and 1.c4 Sf6 according to the guidelines of the series read - understand - play. The opening lines are explained in detail, with the authors paying special attention to the presentation of the inherent ideas and plans to ensure that the reader understands them properly instead of just playing moves learned by heart. Even the meaning and purpose of a single move may be explained, insofar as it is important for understanding.
Based on the knowledge that the reader will surely acquire by studying this book, he will be able to use the discussed lines with the white and the black pieces in an appropriate way. At the same time, the work offers one or the other new idea that can surprise even an experienced opponent and promises interesting, entertaining and - last but not least - successful chess games.
The correctness of the treated lines was checked with the help of leading engines.
The symetrical English is available in Volume 1.

Openings - The English Opening Vol. 2 The Continuations 1.c4 e5 and 1.c4 Nf6

Bringing together the wellbeing sciences and teachers' professional practice in the humanities, this book demonstrates how humanities, English, and creative writing education can holistically improve student outcomes.Researchers have shown that the humanities can play a pivotal role in helping educate young people to live meaningfully in society. Drawing on interdisciplinary research, editor Mathew A. White presents an education-informed approach to integrating wellbeing education concepts into humanities teaching practice. The chapters establish a new theoretical framework for the study of well-being education in the context of English and humanities classrooms and promote this interdisciplinary relationship with the long-term goal of supporting flourishing in schools.Combining international work from the humanities, literary studies and education, this volume will be of great interest to pre- and in-service teachers and teacher educators.

Positive Humanities and the Eudaimonic Turn in Schools

Learning for Wellbeing in Secondary English, Drama and Creative Writing

In Shakespeare, memory, and modern Irish literature, Nicholas Taylor-Collins charts the ways that the modern Irish nation is underwritten by Irish writers whose own cultural agency is improved by their engagement with William Shakespeare. Through a wide-ranging theoretical approach, Taylor-Collins privileges forms of intertextual memory that avoid the obvious quotation or explicit reference: this innovating proposal for a 'dismemorial' intertextuality allows readers to read both Shakespeare and the Irish writers with renewed understanding of their craft. In the Introduction, Taylor-Collins establishes the grounds for comparison: both early modern England and modern/contemporary Ireland deploy a commemorative practice reliant on the theatre as a locus. Thereafter Taylor-Collins proceeds to examine the Shakespeare-Ireland connection through ghosts, bodies, and the land. In the first section, an exploration of Hamlet's hauntology enhances readings of J. M. Synge's Playboy of the Western World, James Joyce's Ulysses, and John Banville's Ghosts. The second section explores first how antitheatrical corporal economies in Coriolanus and Ben Jonson's satires re-emerge in Beckett's Three Novels, before moving on to Caithleen in Edna O'Brien's The Country Girls Trilogy as she borrows from 'hysterical' forebears in Othello, The Taming of the Shrew, and The Winter's Tale. The final section explores W. B. Yeats's infatuation with the surface of the land via King Lear and As You Like It, before finishing with Seamus Heaney's rootedness in the land via Hamlet's jumping into Ophelia's grave. For scholars and students of Shakespeare and modern/contemporary Irish literature alike, this book will also appeal to continental theorists.

Shakespeare, Memory, and Modern Irish Literature

Deluxe slipcased edition of this previously unknown short satirical fantasy by J.R.R. Tolkien edited by his son, Christopher Tolkien, accompanied by illustrations from the author together with an essay, 'The Origin of Bovadium', by Richard Ovenden OBE, and featuring an exclusive foldout colour frontispiece.As Christopher Tolkien notes in his Introduction, The Bovadium Fragments was a 'satirical fantasy' written by his father, which grew out of a planning controversy that erupted in Oxford in the late 1940s, when J.R.R. Tolkien was the Merton Professor of English Language and Literature.Written initially for his own amusement, Tolkien's tale was a private academic jest that poked gentle fun at such things as 'the pomposities of archaeologists' and 'the hideousness of college crockery'. However, it was at the same time expressing a barbed cri de coeur against the inexorable rise of motor transport and 'machine-worship' that was overwhelming the tranquillity of his beloved city.Enriched by a selection of illustrations by the author, and enhanced by Christopher Tolkien's notes and commentary, readers can enjoy at last this tale of an imagined Oxford viewed through the lens of future (and not wholly reliable) academic study.Richard Ovenden's accompanying essay paints a vivid portrait of Oxford during that time. He also provides rich background to the casus belli which led to the furore that Tolkien witnessed first-hand, as the embers of debate between town planners and the university colleges were fanned into flame.Playful, erudite, and ultimately tragically moving, The Bovadium Fragments is like nothing else that J.R.R. Tolkien wrote, and its themes remain both provocative and timely. Within its lines may be found a concern for the fragility of our natural world, a love of which that was shared by both father and son. As Christopher Tolkien's final presentation of his father's work, it is therefore perhaps fitting that The Bovadium Fragments should be their coda.

Winner of the 2020 Michael Jacobs Prize; shortlisted for the Eccles Centre &amp; Hay Festival Writer's Award'A treasure chest full of rare and exquisitely rendered stories' JON LEE ANDERSON'The best book you are likely to read on Cuba for ages' SPECTATORA brilliantly unconventional and riveting ride through Cuba's history, drawing on the David and Goliath dynamic of its confrontations with the US and other superpowers. It captures realities behind the fantastical, exoticised treatment Cuba often receives.Mrs Gargantua deals with towering figures - both human and non-human - and ambitions which have left their mark on Cuba, the distorted means by which the island is often presented to the outside world. From Columbus and the conquistadores, Ptolemy to Paris Hilton, Hemingway, nuclear warheads and the prison camp at Guantánamo Bay, from a nationalist sparrow 'martyred' during Cuba's independence wars to Fidel Castro's genetically modified super-cow, this non-fiction work exposes the country's status as a social and biological testing ground and resource to be mined by larger nations.The book's title comes from an account of Maria Hoyt, a US heiress who raised a gorilla in Cuba (one of the first to do so beyond Africa). Later her pet was sold to a circus in the United States where she became a celebrity: the famous 'Mrs Gargantua'. Her story is directly linked to Hoyt's predecessor in monkey and ape husbandry, the Cuban Rosalía Abreu; reputedly the richest woman in Latin America and a legendary recluse, Abreu became the first person in history - at her mansion in Havana - to breed a chimpanzee in captivity, with unexpected and far-reaching consequences.Like 'Mrs Gargantua', Cuba has been endlessly subject to the whims of the human circus that tries to tame her.The award-winning Mrs Gargantua forms an entirely original, compelling inventory of the author's twenty-year relationship with the island and its people, while also attempting to sketch Cuba's wider importance to a political understanding of the Americas, both in tangible and imaginary terms.

Mrs Gargantua

WINNER OF THE 2026 TLS ACKERLEY PRIZE FOR AUTOBIOGRAPHY Born in 1958, the only child of a dinner lady and a sheet-metal worker, Geoff Dyer grew up in a world shaped by the Second World War. It was a time of Airfix models and wargames, conkers and frugality: having splurged on a mono record player, Geoff's dad discovers it's a portal to endless expenditure and funding for records is abruptly withdrawn. But far from being a story of hardship overcome, Homework is a celebration of opportunities afforded to Dyer's generation. A grammar-school education leads to books, prog rock (on a new stereo), girls, beer and, eventually, a place at Oxford. In Homework, Dyer returns to his early life and asks what it means to live through an era of complex social transformation.

Oxford World's Classics

'No, no, I am but shadow of myself...'

Henry VI, Part I paints a vivid picture of political ambition, civil unrest, and war. One of Shakespeare's most collaborative plays, it was a theatrical hit when it was first performed in 1592. Scenes alternate between conflict at home and on foreign soil: between the growing civil dissention that would lead to the Wars of the Roses and the battles of the Hundred Years' War over England's claim to the French throne. It is an action-packed play, but one that offers a profound meditation on individual sacrifice and heroism, corruption, and the costs of conflict. 

Amy Lidster's introduction examines the play's historical, political, and theatrical contexts, offering a compelling analysis of the affective potential of theatre, language, and narrative to effect political change and shape our understanding of the history that it dramatizes. The introduction explores the play's use of sources, its position within a trilogy of plays about the reign of Henry VI, and its prominent but conflicted representation of France's defender, Joan la Pucelle (Joan of Arc). The introduction offers a fresh analysis of the vibrant theatrical repertory into which the play emerged — one that was marked by politically invested drama that staged diverse, transnational histories.

The New Oxford Shakespeare offers authoritative editions of Shakespeare's works with introductory materials designed to encourage new interpretations of the plays and poems. Using the text from the landmark The New Oxford Shakespeare Complete Works: Modern Critical Edition, these volumes offer readers the latest thinking on the authentic texts (collated from all surviving original versions of Shakespeare's work) alongside innovative introductions from leading scholars. The texts are accompanied by a comprehensive set of critical apparatus to give readers the best resources to help understand and enjoy Shakespeare's work.

ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

The Old English epic poem Beowulf has an established reputation as a canonical text. And yet the original poem has remained inaccessible to all but experienced scholars of Old English. This book aims to present the poem to readers who want to know what makes it such a remarkable work of art, and why it is of such cultural significance. Most readers will only have encountered Beowulf through one of its many translations or adaptations; others have had to take on this unique survivor from a past era as a challenging translation exercise, part of their academic study of the poem. This book sidesteps scholarly debates about the poem's unknowns - its date, provenance or author - and focusses instead on its poetic artistry, its interleaving of heroic pasts and Christian present, and its poet's extraordinary breadth of reference, from biblical history to Old Norse myth. But the strange intricacies of Old English metre and poetic language are explained, and the poet's evocation of the ethics and material world of an imagined pre-Viking Scandinavia is explored. Beowulf: Poem, Poet and Hero follows the story of the poem through its many interwoven voices from different times and places, and the poem emerges as a work of reflective beauty, its human characters full of touching pathos and wisdom, its notorious monsters still speaking to our own societies' abiding insecurities. The final section, on post-medieval responses to Beowulf, shows how the poem has been taken up as a European cultural icon. This book restores its status as a literary masterpiece.
