Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. A brilliantly moving and darkly comic novel, which charts the attempts of dying heroine Delia a modern day Mrs Beeton to prepare her family for the future and lay to rest a ghost from her past. Inspired by her heroine, Isabella Beeton, Delia has made a living writing a series of hugely successful modern household guides, as well as an acerbic domestic advice column. As the book opens, she is not yet forty, but has only a short time to live. She is preoccupied with how to prepare herself and her family for death, from writing exhaustive lists to teaching her young daughters how to make a perfect cup of tea. What she needs, more than anything, is a manual exactly the kind she is the expert at writing. Realising this could be her greatest achievement (for who could be better equipped to write The Household Guide to Dying?) she sets to work. But, in the writing, Delia is forced to confront the ghosts of her past, and the events of fourteen years previously. There is a journey she needs to make, back to the landscape of her past, and one last vital thing she needs to do. Hugely original, life affirming and humorous, The Household Guide to Dying illuminates love, loss, family and the place we call home. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. 'Look, my lord! See heaven itself declares against your impious intentions!' The Castle of Otranto (1764) is the first supernatural English novel and one of the most influential works of Gothic fiction. It inaugurated a literary genre that will be forever associated with the effects that Walpole pioneered. Professing to be a translation of a mysterious Italian tale from the darkest Middle Ages, the novel tells of Manfred, prince of Otranto, whose fear of an ancient prophecy sets him on a course of destruction. After the grotesque death of his only son, Conrad, on his wedding day, Manfred determines to marry the bride-to-be. The virgin Isabella flees through a castle riddled with secret passages. Chilling coincidences, ghostly visitations, arcane revelations, and violent combat combine in a heady mix that terrified the novel's first readers. In this new edition Nick Groom examines the reasons for its extraordinary impact and the Gothic culture from which it sprang. The Castle of Otranto was a game-changer, and Walpole the writer who paved the way for modern horror exponents. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. In Progress, Isabella Wallace and Leah Kirkman explore our understanding of this core educational concept, drawing together ideas from leading international thinkers and practical strategies for busy teachers. The Best of the Best series brings together - for the first time - the most influential voices in education in a format that is concise, insightful and accessible for teachers. Keeping up with the latest and best ideas in education can be a challenge - as can putting them into practice - but this new series is here to help. Each title features a comprehensive collection of brief and accessible contributions from some of the most eminent names in education from around the world. In this exciting first volume, Isabella Wallace and Leah Kirkman have curated a collection of inspiring contributions on the theme of progress and have developed practical, realistic, cross-curricular and cross-phase strategies to make the most of these important insights in the classroom. Each expert has provided a list of further reading so you can dig deeper as you see fit. In addition, the Teacher Development Trust has outlined ideas for embedding these insights as part of CPD.Suitable for all educationalists, including teachers and school leaders. Many myths abound about progress. We have to show that learners are making progress, but what do we really mean by the term? Who decides what constitutes progress? Who should set targets, and why? How do we measure progress? How do we know when pupils are demonstrating it? How do we differentiate and allow for learners' different starting points? Should we be measure everyone against the average or should we be looking at ipsative progress, where achievement is relative only to the pupil's personal best? Indeed, if everyone is making expected progress, is that really progress or just doing as expected? Do we need to rethink assessment? Does meta-cognition hold the answer? What about other approaches like SOLO taxonomy or Building Learning Power? If progress isn't linear, what kind of shape does it have? What implicit value judgements may we be making when applying the term uncritically and unthinkingly? How do we ensure that funding, including the Pupil Premium, is having a tangible effect on progress? Can we make learning and progress visible?What does the evidence base - the research studies and meta-analyses - have to say? Will that be applicable in all contexts?These are just some of the questions that the educational experts delve into in this first volume in the Best of the Best series. The practical strategies offered by Isabella Wallace and Leah Kirkman demonstrate how teachers can immediately use these ideas in the classroom. Advice from the Teacher Development Trust demonstrates how to plan sustained and responsive changes to practice based on the book's key insights. Contributions include: Professor John Hattie makes a powerful argument, supported by practical examples, of how funding can be used effectively and equitably to enhance progress in learning for every pupil. Geoff Petty points us to the invaluable resources provided by meta-research, which identify for us which are the most effective, progress-yielding teaching methods. Sir John Jones, writing about life chances, reminds us of the enormous influence that the quality of teaching can have on pupil motivation and progress. Sugata Mitra looks at the link between progress and improvement of life chances, and the role that technology can play in this respect. David Didau echoes the postmodernists in his argument that progress in the classroom should not be thought of as linear, as a steadily advancing route of improvement aimed at some distant goal of perfection. Professor Mick Waters refers to the practice of assessing progress against externally fixed markers as an `obsession which should be challenged. Will Ord urges us to interrogate exactly what it is that we mean by `progress. Claire Gadsby suggests that progress should be learner centred rather than criterion based and that it is only the pupil, not the teacher, who can demonstrate progress. Professor Robert Bjork warns us against making a supposition not only about what pupils can do but also about what they may need from us in order to do it. Professor John West-Burnham suggests that practice is essential to effective progress in learning, and that the effort we demand of our learners can be directly proportionate to the success they achieve in reaching their goals. Professor Guy Claxton cautions that there is a fine line between challenging learners into making positive progress and `over-stretching them. James Nottingham makes the point that the measurement of progress should not be made by teachers against externally set markers, but by learners against their own personal best. Mark Burns argues that progress is a personal measure, not a fixed absolute. Martin Robinson questions what he refers to as `the progress myth. Mike Gershon urges the wider use by teachers of exemplar materials examples of work which illustrate the content and standard which the pupils should be aspiring to as a next step in their learning. Pam Hook suggests that progress is most usefully expressed not as a forward-moving line but as a spiral where learning experiences are returned to and repeated, perhaps several times, at increasingly higher levels or at greater depth. Andy Hargreaves sees building confidence and self-belief as central to the teachers role and not simply as an optional `soft skill, and extends this same concept to the need for mutual support between colleagues which he refers to as giving `uplift.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Generations of readers have fallen in love with the Cornwall of Winston Graham's magical Poldark saga. The stories of the Poldark family - Ross Poldark, strong, independent squire at Nampara and his beautiful, outspoken wife Demelza; their son Jeremy, killed at the battle of Waterloo; their talented, headstrong daughter Isabella Rose (Bella); and their long-standing feud with the humourless banker and landowner Sir George Warleggan - have sold millions of copies and in the 1970s were made into the most appealing and widely watched TV series of the decade. Now, the twelfth and final novel brings the family story to a close. In this novel it is the youngest Poldark daughter, Bella, who takes centre stage, moving between her home at Nampara on the rugged Cornish coast and the wildly exciting world of the theatre in London and Europe at the beginning of the 19th century. 'Hurrah, Poldark rides again . . . We tingle with the sense that we are in good hands, transported by Graham's atmospheric prose.' DAILY MAIL 'Graham describes Cornwall so well and brings his characters to life so vividly that . . . Poldark is more than enjoyable fiction - it is real' CORNISH GUARDIAN.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. The story of Spain's rise to greatness from its humble beginnings as one of the poorest and most marginal of European countries is a remarkable and dramatic one. With the marriage of Ferdinand & Isabella, the final expulsion of the Moslems and the discovery of America, Spain took on a seemingly unstoppable dynamism that made it into the world's first global power. This amazing success however created many powerful enemies and Elliott's famous book charts the dramatic fall of Habsburg Spain with the same elan as it charts the rise.

Remarkable' Daily Mail 'Beautiful, wise, compassionate and powerful' Isabella Tree This is a story about birds and fathers. About the young magpie that fell from its nest in a Bermondsey junkyard into Charlie Gilmour's life - and swiftly changed it. Demanding worms around the clock, riffling through his wallet, sharing his baths and roosting in his hair. About the jackdaw kept at a Cornish stately home by Heathcote Williams, anarchist, poet, magician, stealer of Christmas, and Charlie's biological father who vanished from his life in the dead of night. It is a story about repetition across generations and birds that run in the blood; about a terror of repeating the sins of the father and a desire to build a nest of one's own.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Katherine of Aragon, Henry VIII's first bride, has become an icon: the betrayed wife, the revered Queen, the devoted mother, a woman callously cast aside by a selfish husband besotted by his strumpet of a mistress. Her sister, Juana of Castile, wife of Philip of Burgundy and mother of the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V, the most powerful man in Renaissance Europe, is still more of a legend. She is 'Juana the Mad', the wife so passionately in love with her husband that she could not bear to be parted from him even by death, keeping his coffin by her side for year upon year. They were Sister Queens - the accomplished daughters of Ferdinand and Isabella, the founders of a unified Spain. A gripping tale of love, sacrifice, the demands of duty and the conflict between ambition and loyalty - at a time when even royal women had to fight for their positions in society - Julia Fox's vibrant new biography teems with life. Linked not only by blood but by cruel experience, their dual stories enrich our understanding of them both, casting a searchlight onto the turbulent age in which they lived. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Ceulemans, Eglantine (illustrator). A fresh, funny and accessible retelling of Jane Austen's classic story, with witty black and white illustrations throughout. Catherine Morland loves nothing more than reading a romantic novel, but as one of ten children she doesn't have much time for reading or for romance. When she is seventeen, her wealthy neighbours invite her to spend the winter season with them in Bath - to experience balls, the theatre and other social delights for the first time. Catherine makes friends with the passionate Isabella, and dances with a handsome man called Henry, and it seems that all her dreams are coming true. But real life doesn't always play out like a novel, and Catherine will have to overcome many obstacles before she can find her happy ending . Steven Butler is an actor and writer from London. His books for children include The Wrong Pong series and Dennis the Menace. Steven's love of mischief made Northanger Abbey the perfect book to rewrite and he's excited to introduce Catherine Morland to a whole new raft of readers. Eglantine Ceulemans captures all of Austen's satire and wit, bringing her colourful casts to life with warm and funny black and white illustrations.

Buchkanten etwas berieben. - Isabella Fiorella Elettra Giovanna Rossellini (* 18. Juni 1952 in Rom) ist eine italienische Schauspielerin. Leben: Isabella Rossellini wuchs als Tochter von Ingrid Bergman und Roberto Rossellini auf, die eine für damalige Verhältnisse skandalöse Ehe führten Bergman verließ ihren Mann und ihre kleine Tochter, um Rossellini zu heiraten. Isabella hat einen älteren Bruder Roberto Ingmar und eine Zwillingsschwester Isotta. Als sie fünf Jahre alt war, trennten sich ihre Eltern wieder. Sie wurde von einem Kindermädchen in einer Wohnung gegenüber Roberto Rossellinis Apartment in Rom aufgezogen. Sie litt an Skoliose und musste langwierige und recht schmerzhafte Behandlungen über sich ergehen lassen. Sie arbeitete von 1982 bis 1993 als Model für die französische Kosmetikfirma Lancôme. 1994 wurde der Vertrag unter Kontroversen nicht verlängert, da sie laut Lancôme zu alt war. Isabella Rossellini produziert mittlerweile eine eigene Kosmetikserie. Von 1979 bis 1983 war sie mit Martin Scorsese verheiratet, später mit dem Model Jonathan Wiedemann. Sie hatte langanhaltende Beziehungen zu David Lynch und Gary Oldman. Isabella Rossellini hat zwei Kinder, Elletra Rossellini Wiedemann (geb.1983) und Adoptivsohn Roberto (geb.1992). Isabella Rossellini begann ihre Karriere als Schauspielerin in italienischen Komödien. International bekannt wurde sie vor allem durch die von David Lynch gedrehten Filme Blue Velvet und Wild at Heart Die Geschichte von Sailor und Lula. In Blue Velvet spielte sie die misshandelte Nachtclubsängerin Dorothy Vallens. Sie spielt sowohl in Europa als auch in den USA Theater, bei der Auswahl ihrer Theaterrollen zeigt sie eine gewisse Tendenz zu Avantgarde-Stücken. Im Lied A Marriage Made In Heaven der Gruppe Tindersticks ist Isabella Rossellini als Sängerin zu hören. Im Jahre 2005 drehte sie mit dem Experimentalfilmer Guy Maddin den Kurzfilm "My Dad is 100 Years Old", eine eigenwillige und ganz persönliche Hommage an ihren Vater Roberto Rossellini. Ihr Regie-Debüt Green Porno präsentierte Rossellini auf der Berlinale 2008: Acht comic-ähnliche Kurzfilm-Episoden stellen das Sexualleben von Regenwürmern, Libellen, Schnecken, Bienen oder Gottesanbeterinnen dar. Rossellini selbst spielt eine Schnecke und ein Spinnenmännchen. . Aus: wikipedia-Isabella_Rossellini. Sprache: Deutsch Gewicht in Gramm: 200.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Behind the facade of sombreros and tequila, tourist traps and holiday resorts, there lies a very different Mexico. In Sliced Iguana, Isabella Tree explores a town that is the heart and lifeblood of the Americas, a country of extremes and contradictions. In a land so markedly shaped by machismo, she finds a town controlled by arm-wrestling matriarchs and party-mad transvestites and in war-torn Chiapas she discovers shamans worshipping Mayan gods inside Catholic churches and conducting exorcisms with the aid of Pepsi. At a graveside vigil on the Night of the Dead, she encounters the last delicate vestige of a pre-Columbian cult that elsewhere has morphed into an Americanised Halloween. With a group of Huichol Indians, perhaps the last truly autonomous tribe in the entire American continent, she participates in rituals using peyote, the hallucinogenic cactus, to bring rain to the drought-stricken sierra and appease the forces of Nature so recklessly abused by the conquistadors and their successors. Through her narrative, Isabella Tree threads the brightly coloured history of Mexico and tells the stories of the people that have defined its fractured past and will shape its future - kings and conquistadors, politicians and rebels, shamans and priests, mestizos and indigenous Indians. This is a story of Mexico like no other, capturing the essence of its psyche and illuminating the struggles and hopes of a people and a country on the cusp of change. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
