Ruby Miller [Ruby Laura Rose Miller] (1889-1976), English actress, one of the 'Gaiety Girls' [W. J. Macqueen-Pope (1888-1960), t
Ruby Miller actress. Three Autograph Letters Signed all ‘Ruby’ to W. J. Macqueen-Pope ‘Popie’ expressing great grief at the death of Ivor Novello whose spirit form she describes seeing at his memorial performance at Drury Lane.
14 March 6 April and 8 October 1951; all three from 57B York Street Baker Street W1 London. See the entries for writer and recipient in the Oxford DNB. The three items in good condition lightly aged with the last carrying minor rusting from paperclip. ONE: 3pp 8vo. She got his office number from ‘Mrs. Popie’ ‘but the line has been busy all the time’. She asks for ‘a pass for darling Ivor’s i.e. Ivor Novello’s memorial service’. The previous week she was ‘playing at the Regent Theatre Hayes & on the Monday night I was weighed down by a dreadful foreboding of disaster’. The play was a ‘psychic thriller’ by Evadne Price ‘Through the Door’ in which she was playing the medium and ‘Sitting in the cabinet during the place I could not shake off this dreadfull depression & when Lea Seidl rang me on Tuesday & told me the tragic news of Ivor I realized why I had felt so awful’. She regards Novello’s ‘passing’ as ‘a national disaster . quite apart from the personal loss we all feel’. Her ‘heart aches for all his friends at the Palace Theatre as it must be torture for them to have to play & hear his music now’. She feels that Novello’s death is ‘almost like losing Max her second husband the concert pianist Max Darewski who died five months into their marriage in 1929 all over again’. She considered Novello ‘a great & wonderful soul & still is as well as a genius. Despite the grimness of the world today he brought light & beauty to everything he touched & everyone he contacted’. At least he ‘gained his wish to go out on the crest of the wave & in harness. Bless him.’ TWO: 2pp 12mo. With thin mourning border. She thanks him for ‘the memorial sheets’ to Novello’s service. ‘Evadne was so glad to have one . I am air-mailing the other to Evelyn at Melbourne’. She agrees that it is ‘very strange about Peter Noble & Ivor’s book’. She hopes MP will ‘do a book about him later on’ MP’s biography of Novello would appear at the end of the year as she feels it would be ‘the only way to put the authentic Ivor before later generations’. THREE: 8 October 1951. 4pp 8vo. Bifolium on grey paper. She thanks him for a ‘wonderful night!’ the Memorial Performance for Novello at Drury Lane 7 October 1951 and feels sure that ‘Mrs. Popie will be interested to hear that I saw Ivor. Max was ith him & Ivor stood with Noel during his lovely speech Coward recited his own ‘Tribute’ in blank verse & then with Tom Arnold. / He smiled & waved to us all & was looking radiant. Wearing a grey cloak like the one in “Perchance to Dreamâ€. Many spirit forms filled the stage until it looked rather like that last scene in “Perchanceâ€.’ She has written to Arnold about a ‘curious coincidence’ regarding ‘the sum raised’ and Novello’s ‘Keep the Home Fires burning’. She offers to sell programmes at the preview of ‘South Pacific’. The letter continues with a discussion of her lack of a telephone and coming departure from her flat. She will be ‘pretty busy speaking on political platforms for the next two weeks’ after which she hopes to do ‘another Gaiety show at the Players’. She mentioned MP’s book in the last Gaiety show ‘which we had to take off despite enormous success through some very ridiculous rule connected with the Stage Rights Society that forbids numbers to be presented usually without the entire book of the Show.’ As a result ‘numbers from famous old Gaiety Shows can only be heard on the radio!’ Accompanying Item Three is a carbon copy 1p 8vo of MP’s typed reply. He thanks her for her ‘most interesting and thrilling’ letter. ‘I am putting your name forward in respect of your kind offer to help at Drury Lane.’ 14 March, 6 April and 8 October 1951; all three from 57B York Street, Baker Street, W1 [London]. unknown

Rudd, Niall
THE CLASSICAL TRADITION IN OPERATION
Light foxing to top of textblock. Includes offprint by Niall Rudd "Swift's on Poetry: a Rhapsody" with gift inscription to Philippa Goold on offprint; In these five essays Niall Rudd presents an eclectic set of comparisons between certain ancient authors and later English writers ranging from Chaucer to Pound. He shows how five English writers consciously used and adapted classical works, and in so doing he illuminates both the classical authors and their English imitators and admirers. Readable translations and summaries of the Latin sources make these stimulating studies accessible even to scholars and students with little or no Latin. The first essay compares Chaucer's treatment of Dido in The House of Fame and The Legend of Good Women with Virgil's presentation of Dido in the Aeneid, and Ovid's in Heroides 7. The second essay, comparing Shakespeare's The Comedy of Errors with Plautus' Menaechmi, demonstrates how Shakespeare, weaving Roman farce into the framework of Hellenistic romance, developed both genres into something richer and more complex. The third essay on Pope's Epistle to Augustus shows his conversion of Horace's praise of Augustus into an anti-royalist attack on George II. In the fourth essay, Rudd discusses how much of Tennyson's Lucretius is invented and imported by Tennyson as a way of externalizing the inner conflicts he experienced in the age of doubt. The final essay, on Pound and Propertius, looks at Pound's representation of the Latin poet in Homage to Sextus Propertius, specifically in the areas of imperial politics, love, and language. ; Robson Classical Lectures; 9.1 X 6.1 X 0.6 inches; 186 pages

Rudd, Niall
THE COMMON SPRING Essays on Latin and English Poetry
This collection aims to bring out the continuity between major poets in Latin and English, presenting to a wider audience papers previously published only in academic periodicals along with a number of unpublished pieces. It contains essays on Virgil, Horace, Ovid and Juvenal, which are intended for the reader with a genuine but not necessarily specialised interest in Latin poetry. Corresponding papers on English poets, including Shakespeare, Milton, Dryden, Pope, Swift and Tennyson, emphasise the debt owed to their Roman predecessors. Two more general pieces, on the poetry of romantic love and on classical humanism, further underline the continuity between past and present. ; Phoenix Essays; 9.1 X 5.8 X 0.8 inches; 206 pages
