Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Good Old Gaiety: An Historiette and Remembrance The site Of the Gaiety Theatre - a playhouse that I can take liberties with and will therefore call the dear departed - was not the Offspring Of a ﬂuke. The ﬂuke enters very largely into theatrical affairs, but not in this case. A capitalist, taking his Johnsonian walk up or down Fleet street, was not inspired to say, halloo! Here's a site; let us build a theatre! The dear departed, whatever its faults and merits may have been, was the be-all and end-all Of a deep design. It was an aggregation of properties quietly acquired by a gentleman with brains and money, who was quite able to manage his own affairs, without seeking wisdom (and not Often finding it) in a multitude Of counsels. He was supposed to have an ambition to pose as a music-hall proprietor, the fact having leaked out - (the tank that holds facts is always very leaky), - that he had purchased the Strand Jklusz'c/e Hall, as it was rather affectedly called. This hall, the only one so far east on the road to Temple Bar, was started by Mr. Syers, a gentleman Of education and enterprise, who had been a merchant in the City in a large way Of business. The hall gave itself superior airs. It was inoculated with a disease known at that time - about forty years ago - as the March Of Intellect. Its architecture was a museum Of samples; its decoration was scrofulous its programmes had an educational taint, and it came to the Strand-end Of Catherine street, just as that once riotous thoroughfare began to lose its popularity as the Haymarket Of Central London. Still it was the heart Of a theatrical market, which hardly exists at present. It was surrounded by Old taverns like the Edinburgh Castle, and the Albion - the latter the homely dining-place Of Charles Dickens, vvilkie Collins, and half the blend Of literature and journalism in the 'fifties and 'sixties. The Caves Of Harmony - the Coal Hole, the Cyder Cellars, and Paddy Green's (better known as Evans's were near; the Lyceum was struggling under many lessee ships, some Of them distinguished and all Of them interesting; the Strand Theatre, having given up its position Of jackal to the Insolvent Debtors Court, was nourishing the genius Of Marie Wilton, under the Swanboroughs the Olympic was still the little Olympic - a house with a history. Drury Lane was playing Milton's Camus to twelve pounds a night, as it afterwards played Hamlet (in Italian) to ten pounds (the wrong thing in the right place) the manager trying to make a round peg fill a square hole. The Adelphi was revelling in Toole, Old farce (writ large) and melodrama, soon to be housing Colleen Bawns and Jefferson and Covent Garden was doing nearly everything it was not intended to do under the Davenant Patent Of Charles II.

Women In 17th Century France written by Wendy Gibson and has been published by Springer this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1989-07-17 with History categories.

This book aims to trace the life of the seventeenth-century Frenchwoman from cradle to the grave through mainly contemporary primary sources which include just about everything from collections of laws to traveller's tales. Rather than reworking and refuting the twentieth-century experts in the field, the author works directly through from birth and childhood through matrimony, women at work, and in political life, manners and religion to conclusive death.
