Aristo is the new play by Martin Sherman that has its world premiere at the Chichester Festival Theatre from 11 September - 11 October prior to a West End transfer. It will star Robert Lindsay and Diana Quick. Based on the last years of the life of the wealthy shipping magnate Aristotle Onassis who after a notorious affair with Maria Calas married Jacqueline Kennedy, widow of US President John F. Kennedy, in 1968. The play explores his complex interwoven relationships with Calla, Kennedy and his son by Callas, Alexandros, who died in a plane crash in 1973. Based in part on Peter Evans' book Nemesis, Aristo is an explosive account of how those in positions of enormous power and wealth often live lives detached from the realities and moral codes of everyday existence.

Volume 13 in the RUSCH series continues work already begun on the School of Aristotle. Volume 9 featured Demetrius of Phalerum, Volume 10, Dicaearchus of Messana, Volume 11, Eudemus of Rhodes, and Volume 12, both Lyco of Troas and Hieronymus of Rhodes. Now Volume 13 turns our attention to Aristo of Iulis on Ceos, who was active in the last quarter of the third century BCE. Almost certainly he was Lyco's successor as head of the Peripatetic School. In antiquity, Aristo was confused with the like-named Stoic philosopher from Chios, so that several works were claimed for both philosophers. Among these disputed works, those with Peripatetic antecedents, like Exhortations and Erotic Dissertations, are plausibly assigned to Aristo of Ceos. Other works attributed to the Peripatetic are Lyco (presumably a biography of Aristo's predecessor), On Old Age, and Relieving Arrogance. Whether part of the last-named work or a separate treatise, Aristo's descriptions of persons exhibiting inconsiderateness, self-will, and other unattractive traits relate closely to the Characters of Theophrastus. In addition, Aristo wrote biographies of Heraclitus, Socrates, and Epicurus. We may be sure that he did the same for the leaders of the Peripatos, whose wills he seems to have preserved within the biographies. The volume gives pride of place to Peter Stork's new edition of the fragments of Aristo of Ceos. The edition includes a translation on facing pages. There are also notes on the Greek and Latin texts (an apparatus criticus) and substantive notes that accompany the translation. This edition will replace that of Fritz Wehrli, which was made over half a century ago and published without translation.

ARISTO’S obsessive need to trace and belong to his family - even though he was told they were all burnt and left unidentifiable during the 1974 Turkish invasion of Cyprus - has estranged his English wife, and is gradually distancing his only child, while in turn, Pavlos has an increasing need to belong to a father who will make time for him. Father and son - or strangers forever ? As the practices at Papas’ late-night museum ‘staff meetings’ unfold themselves to Pavlos, the boy is led deeper into a sinister confrontation with what Papas calls his ‘family', but which brings Pavlos, through the ancient face-masks and relics, to unquiet souls of Greeks believed to have been thousands of years dead. A strong blend of eeriness, suspense, an outsider's need to belong and the poignancy of lives which could be yours when driven to extremity. Editorial Reviews : " The first few chapters are atmospheric; intriguing. They made me want to keep reading. The beautifully observed characters and exotic setting have all the makings of a first class novel. " Barbara Erskine - best selling author of Lady of Hay. " The promise of the early chapters is more than well-maintained. This novel is a real page-turner, worthy of comparison with the early John Fowles' The Magus - and yet the book is distinctively Raymond Nickford. Atmospheric, vibrant,spooky. " Reay Tannahill - Historian and author of The Seventh Son. " Raymond Nickford's worlds are so claustrophobic they are almost unbearable to read - yet read we must. The first paragraph of this novel says more than many say in five chapters.....after a few chapters I am engrossed. " Jane Alexander – author of Samael. " There is so much to like here - the characters, the settings, the story; emotional, intriguing and full of human interest. Another winning combination. " Andrew Wright - author of Sanctuary's Loss. " A psychological suspense as poignant and powerful as Nickford’s Greek sojourn in his book Aristo’s Family. " - Haunted Books Meet the author: susansbooks37.wordpress.com/2013/05/05/meet-the-author-raymond-nickford/ A moving but uplifting story of a broken Anglo-Greek family in Cyprus - Aristo's 'family' is furtive, creepy, occupying isolated dwellings in the Troodos mountains at night, uncannily out of tune with contemporary life - in fact, behaving just a bit too much like ancients in a modern world for comfort, as Aristo's only teenage son, Pavlos, comes to realise, the family are not just shadowy but only too sinister. When Aristo is regressed in hypnosis he unexpectedly begins to reveal to Pavlos uncanny knowledge of ancient Greek individuals whose personalities still seem, in part, to inhabit the family he believes is his, living up in the Troodos mountains. The family, as he calls the group, want to make Pavlos 'clean', after Aristo had discovered his boy taking much more than verbal comfort from the middle-aged and charming Katherine, an archaeologist colleague of Aristo's. At times, I did I have to take the threat of the cleansing ritual and the ancient misuse of the scythe with a pinch of salt but there was no obvious striving after sensation and shock and, through all the looming menace, Pavlos wants only to trust that his father is not leading him to a family which will harm him but that, after all, his Dad is only trying to get closer to him. On the whole, when the scythe was not looming round the corner, a moving story always was. Phillip Mason The opening chapters offered no Big Bang sensation and yet I was hooked early, partly by the dry humour in which the author dips Mr Spiropoulos, the education inspector and some of the Cypriot villagers, and partly because of the feeling that, like the teenage Pavlos who is hypnotised by his father, Aristo, I felt I myself was gradually sinking alongside the character into the trances, which Aristo excuses as the 'Greek lessons' for his boy. Through hypnotism, Aristo wants to convince his son there is a wider family, even though the authorities say his family were burnt beyond recognition when the Turks invaded Cyprus. The strangeness of the act made me read on to find out whether Aristo was really as unloving as the sessions would suggest or whether he was just a desperately lonely man. In turn, Pavlos craves to be closer to his Dad but when the weird family take on an ancient connection up in the deserted Troodos mountains at night, I feared for the son and wondered whether father or son would draw closer or still further apart. Pavlos turns to the mature, Katherine, another colleague of his father's and into whose charms he ultimately sinks but to what 'kind' of 'family' Aristo is leading him, kept me on board.

J'aurais du etre un garcon. Je suis seulement la quatrieme fille. Un berceau en rotin a ete prepare un ruban bleu court entre les tiges de saule peintes en blanc. Impossible de me faire dormir la-dedans. C'est pourquoi j'ai passe les premieres nuits de ma vie dans un tiroir - et les premieres journees aussi - un tiroir, j'ose l'esperer, un peu amenage dans le bureau de mon pere. Qui raconte cette histoire ? Ma mere ou moi ? Ces histoires de tiroirs ont deforme ma perception des choses. Avant d'epouser mon pere, ma mere s'appelait Marie-Madeleine de Noailles de Mouchy de Poix. Je retranscris certains noms parce qu'ils sont deja ecrits dans l'Histoire de France. C'est, n'est-ce pas, ce qu'on appelle un nom a tiroirs. L'aristocratie n'est pas une classe sociale mais est l'objet de tous les fantasmes, y compris en son sein. Mais que signifie etre aristocrate en 2013 dans la France de Melenchon, des Bettencourt ou de la boulangere du quartier ? Valentine de Ganay appartient a l'une de ces familles dont les noms sont meles a l'histoire de France, et dont les codes tacites sont inscrits dans l'ADN de chaque membre. Des lors, comment vivre avec cet heritage ? Aristo ? est une tentative de sociologie subjective qui explore la sensation d'inconfort au sein du clan comme au-dehors. Un recit lucide et plein d'humour, qui dessine en creux les ambiguites de la societe francaise.

Renombre, dinero, poder... puede que todo ser humano sea tan distinto como los días que le acompañan, pero nuestros aristócratas lo tienen claro. Carla Ortiz de Perdigaliz, grande de España, no está dispuesta a ceder ni un ápice de poder, mientras se construye a sí misma como ejemplo de éxito sin importar la sangre derramada y las torres echadas a bajo. Lo cierto es que nuestra aristócrata favorita no siempre lo tuvo fácil: la familia te la da Dios (dicen) y hay quien asegura que naciendo en una pudiente la vida resulta más fácil. Sin embargo, Carla no solo deberá enfrentar decisiones que condicionen su futuro sino que, además, sufrirá la disputa por dos amores, a cual más distinto que el anterior. Un ambiente cargado de opulencia y riqueza donde la crueldad y el egoísmo están por debajo de un conjunto de Dior. Tan asfixiante que no cabe ni un atisbo de moral.
