Despite an occasionally perceptible British bias, the authors have tried hard to paint a colorful, vivid picture of the many faces and varieties of English. The text is never dull, but is enlivened by innumerable examples and by interviews with representative individuals: a minister in Scotland, a couple from the Appalachians, a storekeeper in Newfoundland, a Philadelphia shoeshine man, a cockney fruitseller, an Australian farm family, the president of Sierra Leone, a writing professor in India. ; "Elisabeth Sifton books." ; Contents: Introduction: Speaking of English -- An English-speaking world -- The mother tongue -- A muse of fire -- The guid Scots tongue -- The Irish question -- Black on white -- Pioneers!

In den WarenkorbHardcover, 366 pages, ENG, 275 x 205 x 35 mm, book is in good order, dustjacket , with dozens of illustrations in b/w, index from A to Z over practically every pottery and porcelain artist worldwide, biography's. ISBN 9780571113972. Porcelain production in Britain has always been privately funded, so factories would come and go…depending on the business acumen of their managers and the depth of the pockets of their financial backers. Some of these small short-lived potteries did important pioneering work, although they are now lost to history. Only four early factories made it through a significant period of time and are therefore still well-known today: Chelsea, Bow, Derby and Worcester. Of these new English porcelain factories, many had grown out of the countless existing potworks where excellent earthenware was made, but several were started by enterprising immigrants. In Chelsea, a Walloon Huguenot silversmith called Nicholas Sprimont applied knowledge picked up in France to turn his silver dishes into porcelain. In Bow, Irish immigrant Thomas Frye conducted experiments in his friend?s backyard using ?Cherokee clay? imported all the way from America. 1400 g.
