A history of ancient rome mary beard6/4/2023 ![]() ![]() However, SPQR is not a straightforward account of what happened when, of political leaders or nit-picking about the details of battles. Starting at the earliest settlements of ancient Rome, Beard concludes her history at the moment that Emperor Caracalla granted Roman citizenship to all of his subjects, when, she argues, the nature of the Roman world irreversibly shifted. ![]() And to call SPQR: A History of Ancient Rome anything less than superb would be doing it a severe injustice. Mary Beard, Professor of Classics at Newham College, Cambridge, as well as author of numerous books on the ancient world, is the next to step into the fray. Every couple of decades or so, someone undertakes the endeavour, in the process both reflecting new discoveries and the prejudices and anxieties of their epoch. 2015.Īccounting for the rise or fall of the ancient Roman civilisation is almost something of a rite of passage for each generation. Marion Koob applauds this superb book for its gripping narrative threads, its persuasive account of Rome’s contemporary relevance and for drawing attention away from the colourful personalities of the Roman emperors to instead consider the structures and patterns of power through which they ruled. With SPQR: A History of Ancient Rome, the renowned Cambridge classicist Mary Beard presents a new history of ‘the Senate and People of Rome’, covering over 1,000 years and a diverse array of themes. ![]()

The leavers book review6/3/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() It’s a moving story of how a boy comes into his own when everything he loves is taken away, and how a mother learns to live with the mistakes of the past. Set in New York and China, The Leavers is a vivid examination of borders and belonging. Loving and selfish, determined and frightened, Polly is forced to make one heartwrenching choice after another. Told from the perspective of both Daniel-as he grows into a directionless young man-and Polly, Ko’s novel gives us one of fiction’s most singular mothers. But far from all he’s ever known, Daniel struggles to reconcile his adoptive parents’ desire that he assimilate with his memories of his mother and the community he left behind. Eventually adopted by a pair of well-meaning white professors, Deming is moved from the Bronx to a small town upstate and renamed Daniel Wilkinson. With his mother gone, eleven-year-old Deming is left mystified and bereft. One morning, Deming Guo’s mother, Polly, an undocumented Chinese immigrant, goes to her job at a nail salon-and never comes home. This book took me by complete surprise it wasn. Lisa Ko’s powerful debut, The Leavers, is the winner of the 2016 PEN/Bellwether Prize for Fiction, awarded by Barbara Kingsolver for a novel that addresses issues of social justice. Lisa Kos examination of outsider anxiety and the struggle between clashing identities is thoroughly immersive. ![]()

![]() ![]() ![]() She’s a single mother who gets no assistance from the boy’s father or her mother who rejected her. The Housekeeper has worked diligently her whole life because she needs to make ends meet. ![]() ![]() I really appreciate fiction which sensitively depicts working class life. In turn, the Housekeeper develops a deeper engagement/relationship with other people and the world around her. He gives this mother and son an appreciation for the beauty of mathematics. As such he wears a suit every day which is covered in notes to remind him about his condition and who the Housekeeper and her son are. This developed after he received a head injury in a car accident at the age of forty seven. He is an ingenious mathematician but suffers from an illness where he loses all recent memory every eighty minutes. She and her son (who the Professor dubs Root because his head is shaped like the square root symbol) develop a close bond with the Professor. Narrated from the point of view of a single mother and professional cleaner, the Housekeeper tells her story of working for a man she only refers to as the Professor. However, it has a meaning which subtly builds over the course of the story. ‘The Housekeeper and the Professor’ has an easily digestible style of writing and structure. During the long flight from London to Tokyo, I was grateful to have a novel that was fairly simply written but emotionally engaging. ![]()
