Katherine the Queen: The Remarkable Life of Katherine Parr


Description

'Linda Porter has done a marvellous job in bringing Katherine Parr to life. In so doing, she evokes the whole terrifying and exciting world of the Tudor courts, packed with intrigue and danger' - A.N. Wilson, "Reader's Digest". In this, the first full-scale biography of Katherine Parr, Linda Porter illuminates the life of the queen history has largely forgotten - or at least misremembered. Twice widowed before her marriage to the king, she was not as well versed in the ways of monarchs and her fervent political and religious views made waves in the treacherous waters of the Tudor court. The queen who 'survived' did so only by the skin of her teeth. And though the story of her life has been curiously neglected, she left an enduring impression on English history. 'Colourful and well paced ...Katherine's was indeed a remarkable life' - Matthew Dennison, "Mail on Sunday". '[A] nuanced picture of family allegiances and intellectual background' - Jenny Uglow, "Financial Times".

In the fall of 1957 the University of California Press expanded Arnheim's 1933 book "Film" by four essays and brought that landmark work back Katherine the Queen: The Remarkable Life of Katherine Parr free download pdf into print as "Film as Art". Now nearly fifty years after that re-edition, this book continues to occupy an important place in the literature of film. Arnheim's method, provocative in this age of technological wizardry, was to focus on the way art in film was derived from that medium's early limitations: no sound, no color, and no three-dimensional depth.

It affects only his speech, and he doesn't realize he's doing it, but the parishioners of Nibbleswicke are shocked and confused by his seemingly outrageous comments. At last a cure is found and the mild-mannered vicar can resume normal service. Or at least as normal as is possible for a man who must walk backwards to be sure of talking forwards! A highly comic tale in the best Dahl tradition of craziness, written for the benefit of the Dyslexia Institute.
