What's a Viscount to do when a mysterious lady with a secret past and a reputation frayed around the edges suddenly appears in London? Especially when she's in hot pursuit of his naive young cousin, setting the gossips' tongues wagging, stirring his family into pandemonium and driving him mad with her irreverent ways? If the Viscount in question is Simon Easton, the answer is quite simple. Seduce the beguiling lady. But Miss Beatrice Morgan isn't your average tarnished lady. She lives a slapdash life wandering the globe like a gypsy, painting fantastical portraits of Duchesses as sirens and landscapes featuring a crumbling old fountain, all the while harboring a secret desire to return to Idyllwild, the only home she's ever known. What Simon does not know is that Beatrice just might be willing to sacrifice her honor, her virtue, her very heart to reclaim Idyllwild.

What the poet sings here is true of his life. He is open for the temptations of both the passion and the reason. When they act together, we find the person at his best in life with the strengths of purpose and will; we find the poet at his best in poetry with sweet ironies, spliced with the power of language when, " The wind of passion and the barriers of reason, pull apart from sides,". Thus, the author gained from both his strength and weakness. Poetry to this poet is an integrated expression of personality. His conception of poetry is beautifully expressed in the following stanza in the poem "Poetry ".You, the gentle queen on inspiration's throne In splendours of words, rhythms, colours, Musics and passions in unending layers; Come, sit on heart, build bridges to the mind, Bring light to the eyes to choose a carriageTo carry your muse to gentle souls.It is significant of this poet that the utility of poetry for him lies in carrying her 'muse to gentle souls'. He is deeply subjective and inward-looking in nature. This subjective and inward-looking tendency makes him a proud and self-assured individual. Read following lines in the poem,'The Path of Life '.Whatever may come, whatever may go, Whatever on the path is in store as fate, I must walk as always I am;Proud of self and diligent of walk,I tread the path that comes in front; Whatever at back, bears my print,Whatever in front, conforms to inner strength.The poet has tried to portray the widening gulf betwixt rich and poor in the poem,' Humanity ' wherein an image of poverty is laid in following lines:A hapless motherOffers her to greedTo save her child from the hunger's death ; No roof to hide, no cloth to cover,No fire in heart to save honour ; Dirt and filth, sickness everywhere, Dirt and filth, sickness everywhere,The sufferings of the people touch the poet while writing about Bangladesh cyclone in the poem,' Bangladesh Cyclone; he describes how a famished man appears after the devastation.God-forsaken man sits in the middleAnd knows not whether he is dead or alive.'Portraits of Passion' is primarily a portrait of passion- passion in its varied and verdant forms and hues; passion for life, passion of love and passion to know the world around. The collection has a few love portraits in both meeting and parting frames of mind. Read following lines of the poem,' That Day':She held the portrait close to her heart And drank his form to the brim of eyes; What a gentle shine, what contentment, Her eyes spread in expression of her heart! What depth it had, what immortal warmth That he felt at loss to pierce far enow; Parting is the more intense form of love.The foretaste of the impending separation how withers souls and brings them closer in the milieu of climacteric gloom and silence is portrayed in the poem,' Gulf of Life and Death':Face to face, they sat in silence,No word to speak, no shine in eyes, Both blankly stared beyond each other; No world to smile, no light or sunshine,They sought each other for hope and comfortIn the eye of high tide of the time's drift.There are a few poems on the nature in this fascicle. Following three lines describe the full-moon in motion in her full glory through the demi-jour of the heaven in a mise en scene:The golden queen in the stride of royal graceAscended heaven with gold dusts splayedOn the fading silk-carpet of the thin sunshine ;The aureate beauty of the fullmoon day is painted in following lines : The night is full with beauty's sweet contrastsOf peace and passions, stillness and motionWith shades and twiligfits of sensuous quietude!A conflict of life and death and desperate waiting for something eerie and lovefull are lurking in many of the poet's writings and give his poems an arcane touch.

A Passion for Performance: Sarah Siddons and Her Portraitists brings together three engaging essays – by Robyn Asleson, Shelley Bennett and Mark Leonard, and Shearer West – that recreate the eventful life, both on and off the stage, of the great eighteenth-century actress Sarah Siddons. Siddons was renowned for her bravura performances in tragic roles, and her fame was enhanced by the many portraits of her painted by the leading artists of the day. The greatest of these was Sir Joshua Reynolds’s Sarah Siddons as the Tragic Muse, a painting now in the Huntington Art Collections and recently studied at the Getty Center. A Passion for Performance places this magnificent portrait within the context of Siddons’s career as an actress and cultural icon. Includes a chronology of Siddons’s life by volume editor Robyn Asleson.

Portraits in Passion is the inspiring story of twenty-one women who pursued their dreams, emigrating from America to Israel, transforming themselves and the people and society around them in the process. Coming from diverse walks of life, these apparently ordinary women chose to leave the comfort of America to embrace the challenges of living in the Middle East's only democracy. Portraits in Passion: Vision and Values of American-Israeli Women allows us to share their journey. More importantly, it invites us to learn from them. Portraits in Passion teaches us that it is not farfetched to dream, to aspire and to achieve your dreams.

Actually, there is but one Dahlia represented among these 76 plates. Whereas the genus Passiflora is disproportionately featured with 13 different species. If one is looking for a book about identifying different flowers, this is not the book for you. If, on the other hand, one is looking for a picture book celebrating the singular beauty, pattern, color, and structure of certain particular flowers that have appealed to this photographer over the years, then keep reading (and looking). What do I know about flowers? Very little it turns out. Neither botonist nor horticulturist, I'm not even a florist, but as a photographer, I do know what "catches my eye," excites me, and/or stimulates me enough to do the work required. As a photographer, it has always been my belief that if the imagery is powerful enough, any accompanying text is redundant, unnecessary, or distracting. But how many books does one see these days, besides exhibition catalogues or monographs that exclude all text? Besides that, when I see a photography book that interests me (not too often), obviously the pictures come first, but there is always the question of who is this photographer and how did they arrive at this point. By now the reader must be getting some sense that this book is more about the photographer than the photographs, so if my words are not directly related to the pictures, at least one will come away with a fair understanding of my philosophy of photography. Even in college, my thesis was about the subjectivity of perception so for quite some time it has been my feeling that we all "see" (perceive) differently. In graduate school (Rhode Island School of Design, 1966-1968) while reading THE DAYBOOKS OF EDWARD WESTON, my greatest influence, I very much resonated with his stated desire "to reveal the essence of the thing" and "to perceive more clearly than the eye can see." Taking the time for close observation, my subjects often reveal themselves in wonderous ways. As a kind of "visual organizer," I also closely identify myself with Weston's contention that "composition is the strongest way of seeing." Whether sheer escapism from modern alienation, flower pornography (as one friend has suggested), or simply an album of close encounters of the floral kind, here is an offering of my best flower images. One of my teachers (Minor White, 1908-1976) at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1966, taught us that if you can quiet yourself down enough to make a connection with the subject, and everything else is just right, the resulting photograph can be therapeutic; that is my goal. TOOLS AND TECHNIQUES Photographically, at least in terms of equipment, I am a dinosaur. The 35mm camera I use (Leicaflex SL-2) hasn't been made for 30 years. For all close-up and macro work the 60 mm lens (usually with 2x-extender) is utilized. Other Leitz lenses include 21, 35, 90, and 250 mm. Whenever feasible a tripod is used so the longer exposures, necessitated by closing the lens down (f/l6) for maximum depth of field, are usually not a problem unless the wind is blowing. All work is by natural light; no flash, no filters. For the most part this is table-top photography (I often use a trash can or improvise with whatever is at hand). A cut bloom (yes! as one incredulous grower exclaimed, I work with dead flowers) is turned every-which-way with one eye shut so as to more closely replicate the camera's mono-vision and then carefully placed on black velvateen or some natural form (coral, piece of bark, etc.) spray painted matte black. This is then positioned in most instances so my subject is back lit, thereby standing out from the background. Transparency film has been used for all exc
