![]() Its contrived plot follows the fortunes of three families with roots in the South: the dark-skinned Ellises, the interracial Garies, and the white Stevenses, headed by the villainous “slippery” George. Published four years after William Wells Brown's Clotel, The Garies is the second of four African American novels published prior to the Civil War. Webb's contribution to African American literature is to be found in the number of pioneering themes and subjects addressed in The Garies. The Garies's prefaces by Stowe and Lord Brougham, both abolitionists, suggest he may have also played a role in the antislavery movement. Drawing on these experiences, Webb's novelettes focus on the leisure-time activities of upper-class society in London, Paris, and Cannes. After growing up there, he likely resided in England sometime prior to the London publication of The Garies and may have moved in wealthy European social circles. According to Stowe, he was born in Philadelphia, probably in the late 1820s or early 1830s. ![]() Webb's life comes from Harriet Beecher Stowe's brief preface to The Garies. ![]() ![]() (?–?), author of The Garies and Their Friends (1857) and two novelettes, “Two Wolves and a Lamb,” (1870) and “Marvin Hayle” (1870). ![]() 6/8/2023 0 Comments And only to deceive![]() ![]() ![]() His journals reveal him to have been a gentleman scholar and antiquities collector who, to her surprise, was deeply in love with his wife.

This geometry is very simple to perform by peg and line, but the mathematics behind it is complex. The geometry of Stonehenge (a 3x donut) can be defined by inner circle arcs which cycle three times around the Aubrey ring to unite at 28 points and this may have determined the pit number. Inner circle arcs could have been used at Stonehenge to construct an inner ring one third the diameter of the earlier outer ring. A construction system based on dimension sharing and scaling will produce artefacts and sites with similar sizes, but some sites such as Newgrange appear to be self scaled. ![]() Circle arc geometry as a tool can be used to produce complex shapes, at Newgrange to make the heart shaped mound and to construct arcs to align the inner trilithons at Stonehenge. The annulus 'donut' is a common structure in the Neolithic, both of open timber and stone circles and was found to be an architectural scaffolding for closed structures such as Newgrange, which was found to be self-scaled from an inner ring diameter. ![]() 6/7/2023 0 Comments Gracefully grayson![]() ![]() ![]() Debut author Ami Polonsky’s moving, beautifully-written novel shines with the strength of a young person’s spirit and the enduring power of acceptance. ![]() Strengthened by an unexpected friendship and a caring teacher who gives her a chance to step into the spotlight, Grayson might finally have the tools to let her inner light shine.
