	Restoration - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the History of England the term Restoration has a specific meaning in as much as it is used to describe the process whereby Charles II regained the English throne after the Parliamentarian rule in the wake of the English Civil War.
		In telecommunications, restoration is action taken to repair and return to service one or more telecommunications services, including repair of a damaged or impaired telecommunications facility, that have a degraded quality of service or have a service outage.
		Restoration may be done by various means, such as patching, routing, substitution of component parts, or selecting other pathways.

	Scientists Take Major Step To Improve River Restoration Efforts (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		The group of 25 scientists has developed a database of 37,099 restoration projects, and have used it to draw conclusions about regional and national trends in the numbers and types of projects being performed, along with their costs and environmental benefits.
		Although restoration is clearly beneficial to the health of streams and rivers, one key finding is that much more work needs to be done to evaluate the environmental benefits of different restoration practices.
		Restoring the natural form and function of rivers and streams helps reverse a decline in water quality.

		Throughout the novel, Morrison shows transformative moments that are a result of true, empathic responsiveness, both for her characters and her readers.
		One of the first tasks Sethe must accomplish on her journey toward the restoration of her core self that has been fragmented by her various experiences and relationships is finding the courage to "go back." Morrison herself discusses the difficulty in wanting to remember or to face the loss.
		Although the bulk of the novel is crafted around the three women, their memories and dialogues, one key scene demonstrates the power of empathy to create a new sense of self and restore human relationships.

	Interview with Rose Tremain, author of The Colour, Restoration and Music and Silence.
		Her 1989 novel Restoration was shortlisted for the Booker Prize and Music and Silence won the Whitbread Novel Award in 1999.
		Her most recent novel is The Colour, which is set during the gold rush era in 19th c.
		I believe the idea for setting a novel during the gold rush era in New Zealand, came to you during a book festival visit, while you were visiting a goldmining museum.

		Restoration is the story of one man's growth from selfish hedonist to loving father and gentle doctor.
		He stumbles a few times along the way, but eventually he grows into a rather wise and compassionate man, while still retaining a bit of the twinkle of his wild youth.

	Richardson's Works
		The novel will be of particular interest to highschool and university students, first, for its vigorous recreation of an important period in Canada's past, and, second, for Richardson's literary talent which dominated Canadian writing for the first half of the nineteenth century and blazed the way for Canada's future novelists.
		The novels deal with the English community in Restoration Paris in the 1820s, but are very different in design and treatment of character.
		The philosophical air and worldly satire of the novel are owing to Richardson¹s co-author, Justin Brenan from Dublin, Ireland, whom Richardson knew in Paris.

		I wanted my novel to be a fantasia--something like what Bernard Shaw did with history in ARMS AND THE MAN and even to some extent in CAESAR AND CLEOPATRA--representing outstanding and discordant elements in the twentieth century, the graces and the hideousnesses of the period blended with their absurdities and incongruities.
		It also refers to a personal or inner restoration--Michael finds at the novel's end that at last he is able to put together the fragments of his past and construct a new and unified self.
		The novel form is particularly vulnerable, because although the audience for it indeed exists, it is very diffuse and hard to reach.

	Notes on the beginning of the English novel
		Novels differ from earlier narrative fiction in a certain freedom from stereotypes in plot, character, and names.
		The people who exist and the things that transpire in novels are recognizable as behaving and occurring in believable human ways -- things happen in the fictional world according to laws that are essentially like those governing the everyday world.
		Readers of novels "identify" or "empathize" with the heroes and heroines of novels, suggesting a greater closeness between readers and novel characters than between readers and characters in other fictional forms.

		My thesis for this course is that such novels as The Wanderer are marked by a struggle between a womanís experience story and a family and property story.
		The theatrical monopolies of the early Restoration also encouraged something like a star system, which tended to confuse actors' private with their stage lives, and tended to typecast them in those roles.
		These issues have peculiar urgency in the Restoration, because this represents a period when several systems of signification have collapsed or are in a process of radical revision and reassessment.

		"Restoration" won a pair of Oscars for Eugenio Zanetti's Art Direction-Set Deocration and James Acheson's Costume Design, and there is a sense in which the spectacular sets threaten to overwhelm the story, which is based on the novel by Rose Tremain.

		One of the tasks facing the adapter of famous novels is the transfiguring of literary metaphor into cinematic image.
		Rose Tremain's source novel has been acclaimed, not only as an excellent piece of historical recreation, but for embodying the consciousness of mid-17th century England, without reference to or taint of our own century.
		The title itself is a bookish pun, signifying not only the restoration of the Monarchy after eleven years, as the inter-titles tell us, of 'bleak Puritan rule'; but also the restoration of its hero's humanity, decency and maturity; the restoration of London after the Plague and the Great Fire of London.

	The Loop, by Nicholas Evans. Review by Ralph Maughan
		The novel begins with an ambiguous scene where one of the new wolves attacks and kills a faithful dog, right on the porch of Calder's daughter and a few yards from his baby grandson in his carriage.
		After the beginning scene, I thought the novel might be peddled by the Farm Bureau, but the story's course flows in the opposite direction.
		The novel gives the impression that those who favor the wolf (government biologists aside) engage mostly in ineffectual protesting.

		By bringing together theater and the novel, it shows how different forms and media were vital to literary culture during the period that extends from the Restoration to the turn of the nineteenth century.
		Thus, in the second unit we turn to critical readings that introduce students to studies of the novel, and we reexamine the frequently made claim that the British novel is uniquely suited to representing eighteenth-century society.
		Mansfield Park provides a distinct counterpoint to Edgeworth's novel in matters of style and subject, and Austen's play offers several points for discussion: though Edgeworth's play precedes her novel and Austen's dramatizes a previously published one, both dramatic pieces were written for domestic performances by the authors' families.
