1966In THE TROJANS, Mr. Williams turns his pereptive eye and ear to the only real fantasy land in existence - the world of motion pictures. We are shown a business that is nothing like a business, an organization that sells images, physical and mental. Careers and, ultimately, lives hinge on the return of superstar Margaret Dayton to the Greek island location of the multi-million dollar epic, Helen of Troy. Those most affected ponder the reasons for her disappearance and, in so doing, become involved in a reevaluation of their own lives. These lives together form a network of human experience that starts with the motion picture world but goes far beyond it. Grover Brand, the cerebral author who constantly dissects motives, acts, and consequences, must ponder the validity of his relationship with Margaret. Did he become her husband because he loved her, or did he marry her for the book he felt he could wring from such an alliance? Sidney Tate, the president of Globe Pictures, once a feared and respected surgeon for ailing corporations, finds himself and his business failing with the only hope for survival dependent upon Margaret's return. Octavia Dayton nurtures a promiscuity which does not exclude her daughter's lovers. Nelson Glassgow, Margaret's agent, has an Interest in both Dayton women which produces a schism between Margaret and Octavia. Howard Sills, once the young genius of the motion picture industry, must try to recoup his loss of prestige as a producer with Helen of Troy. Mace Garret, Margaret's costar and an erstwhile boxer turned amorous actor, must contend with his greatest opponent - his own body. Each character is a masterpiece of insight. It is this fluid and sentient writing which will involve the reader in their lives ...and the massive range of experience they represent. Book

2006réf. 044235Oxford: Archaeopress 2006 Book. New. Soft cover. First Thus. On August 2nd 1877 the English explorer and archaeologist James Theodore Bent married an extraordinary Irishwoman Mabel Virginia Anna Hall-Dare .and within a few months they had embarked on their pattern of annual travels that continued until his early death in 1897. Their trips began fairly close to home visiting northern Italy but by 1883 they were in the Eastern Mediterranean in modern Greece and Turkey searching out the antiquities landscapes and lifestyles of a region that was to captivate them for the next fifteen years. Their researches led to a number of highly regarded monographs papers and articles such as Theodores 'The Cyclades or Life Among the Insular Greeks' 1885 and the many publications of their various discoveries in locations such as Rugged Cilicia the island of Thassos and elsewhere that were to place the couple securely amongst the foremost British travellers of the latter half of the 19th century. The publication therefore of Mabel Bents personal notebooks from the archive of the Joint Library of the Hellenic and Roman Societies London represents the discovery of a lost and notable milestone for scholars and travel enthusiasts of all kinds. This series of volumes begins with Mabels account of the couples adventures around the Aegean and beyond extracted from her fifteen-year sequence of notebooks and presented chronologically. Specifically we follow Mabel and Theodore to the Greek mainland and the islands known now as the Cyclades and the Dodecanese as well as the northern Aegean islands; their journeys along the Turkish littoral lead them from bustling Istanbul to provincial Mersin in the far south-west.363p. illus maps index.
