		Among musicians of his generation William Kapell, just thirty-one on Sept. 20, 1953, was one of the great ones.

		It was only in the last two years that he had gained real access to the grand repertory of the piano, to the concertos of Mozart and Beethoven and Brahms and Chopin and to the suites of Bach and Debussy, and that he had been genuinely successful with that repertory.

	OUP: UK General Catalogue
		Advice literature (etiquette manuals, guides to hygiene and house management, and treatises on upbringing) enjoyed massive popularity in Russia between the late eighteenth and the late twentieth centuries.
		It reflected changing attitudes to appropriate behaviour in private and public, to the acquisition of possessions, and not least to national identity (for many Russians, reading how-to books was seen as a way of 'learning how to be a Westerner').
		Written or translated by members of the cultural elite trying to encourage what they saw as civilized behaviour, advice literature was also a conduit for changing views of mass readers and of their place in society.

	Bookbird: a journal of international children's literature
		With it my tenure as editor seems to have come full circle: the social issues raised here are linked to those in my very first issue on girls and women, because as women's role has expanded, men's has had to change.
		With each issue, I have attempted to encourage research, focus the spotlight on countries whose children's literature is not well known-such as Brunei Darussalam, Namibia, Bangladesh, Colombia, Mongolia, Czech Republic, and Nepal-and select topics that would bridge national, cultural, and linguistic barriers.
		This team approach is an excellent development for the continued success of Bookbird, because the work will be shared by the four editors, and the journal will benefit from their combined expertise.
