How did early modern England understand race and how has that influenced our thinking? Race is often considered a recent construct, but Shakespeare's works—both his plays and poetry—reveal a diverse world already aware of race, identity, and difference. In this episode, Patricia Akhimie, editor of The Oxford Handbook of Shakespeare and Race, discusses the growing field of study and what we can learn from it. She is joined by two of the scholars contributing essays to the guide, Dennis Britton and Kirsten Mendoza, who are exploring the ways race, gender, and power intersect in Shakespeare's long narrative poems. Britton examines Venus and Adonis, investigating how Shakespeare's portrayal of beauty, fairness, and desire upends traditional thinking about sexuality and race. Mendoza focuses on human rights in The Rape of Lucrece, revealing how Shakespeare's use of color symbolism exposes early modern ideas about race, gender, and bodily autonomy. Both scholars illuminate how Shakespeare's works have encoded ideas about race, which continue to resonate today. The Oxford Handbook of Shakespeare and Race is an essential resource for scholars, teachers, students, and readers interested in this important area of Shakespeare research. Patricia Akhimie is Director of the Folger Institute at the Folger Shakespeare Library, Director of the RaceB4Race Mentorship Network, and Associate Professor of English at Rutgers University-Newark. She is editor of the Arden Othello (4th series), author of Shakespeare and the Cultivation of Difference: Race and Conduct in the Early Modern World and, with Bernadette Andrea, co-editor of Travel and Travail: Early Modern Women, English Drama, and the Wider World. Dennis Austin Britton is an Associate Professor of English at the University of British Columbia. His research interests include early modern English literature, Protestant theology, premodern critical race studies, and the history of emotion. He is the author of Becoming Christian: Race, Reformation, and Early Modern English Romance (2014), coeditor with Melissa Walter of Rethinking Shakespeare Source Study: Audiences, Authors, and Digital Technologies (2018), and co-editor with Kimberly Anne Coles of ‘Spenser and Race', a special issue of Spenser Studies (2021). He is currently working on a new edition of Othello for Cambridge University Press and a monograph, ‘Shakespeare and Pity: A Literary History of Race and Feeling.' Kirsten N. Mendoza is an Associate Professor of English and Human Rights at the University of Dayton. Her first book project, ‘A Politics of Touch: The Racialization of Consent in Early Modern English Literature', examines the conceptual ties that link shifting sixteenth- and seventeenth-century discourses on self-possession and sexual consent with England's colonial endeavors, involvement in the slave trade, and global mercantile pursuits. Her work has appeared or is forthcoming in Renaissance Drama, Shakespeare Bulletin, The Norton Critical Edition of Doctor Faustus, Race and Affect in Early Modern English Literature, and Teaching Social Justice Through Shakespeare: Why Renaissance Literature Matters Now.

René Girard wrote a book of literary criticism of Shakespeare titled "Theatre of Envy: William Shakespeare." The book makes centuries of Shakespeare critics look like fools while confirming the bard himself as a monumental literary figure. This podcast summarises some of the big points of Girard's analysis of Shakespeare.Shakespeare dramatised and reflected on what Girard calls the mimetic nature of desire ("love through others' eyes"), using it as a key plot device in many of his works. In this episode we talk about a few of them, including Two Gentlemen of Verona, The Rape of Lucrece, Romeo and Juliet, Midsummer Night's Dream, Troilus and Cressida.Furthermore, Girard analyses Shakespeare's depictions of what he calls mimetic crises and sacrificial murder. We discover these elements in Troilus and Cressida and Julius Caesar.This episode is Part 1 of 2 (for now) on the topic of Shakespeare interpreted by Girard.

Before she began advocating for the health of other women, she had to advocate for her own. Like you, she was overwhelmed with life, trying hard to keep all the pieces together. She was neglecting herself and pouring from an empty cup – all day, every day. She was running on fumes, but she had responsibilities, so she “couldn't afford” to stop and fill up. But the stress of it all almost stopped her dead in her tracks one day 10 years ago.That day, she was at her lowest and all those balls she was juggling came crashing to the floor. And, it scared her into making some changes. That day, she cried out to God, called in some backup kingdom women, and put a plan in place to restore from within. Now she's dedicated her life to coach busy moms and mompreneurs by helping them renew their minds, Re-FIRE their spirits, and restore their Temples (bodies), so they can flourish in all seasons of their lives.

Nous sommes le 18 août 1503, à Rome. Ce jour-là, après plusieurs jours de fièvre, Rodrigo Borgia, 214e pape de l'Église catholique romaine, connu sous le nom d'Alexandre VI, succombe à un repas mal digéré. Vraisemblablement en raison d'une dose d'empoisonnement. Quelques temps plus tôt était paru un pamphlet anonyme, prétendument daté de 1501, intitulé « Lettre à Silvio Savelli », du nom d'un allié des Orsini, famille ennemie des Borgia. Évoquant Alexandre, la lettre parle d'un « traître au genre humain », « pire que Mahomet », adepte de meurtres en tous genres. « … que de stupres, d'incestes, d'ordures, par les enfants du pape, fils et filles ! », peut-on lire. « Il n'est maison de débauche, il n'est lupanar qui ne soit plus décent ! (…) Rodrigo Borgia, exécrable gouffre et bourbier de tous les vices, en un pontificat criminellement acheté, renverse de fond en comble lois divines et droits humains ». Voilà notre souverain pontife rhabillé pour de nombreux hivers qui vont traverser les siècles. Alexandre VI, le pape de tous les excès. On se scandalise de sa vie intime intense et trouble, du rôle qu'il fait jouer à ses enfants, Lucrèce et César, dont il se sert comme autant d'atouts de son jeu de carte diplomatique. Prêt à tout pour servir ses ambitions dynastique. Un pape démoniaque, en sommes. La barque est bien remplie. Est-elle trop chargée ?

In today's episode we are joined by Carson Brakke to discuss how early modern concepts and anxieties about hospitality and cannibalism influenced early modern literature and drama, most explicitly in Shakespeare's Titus Andronicus.  Carson breaks down the early modern concept of hospitality and shares the cultural debates and dilemmas that centered around it and its inherent dangers. Join us as she guides us through the cognitive dissonance surrounding cannibalism for early modern Europeans, who simultaneously used it to other non-Europeans while possibly participating in cannibalism themselves!  We also explore how readers and theatre-makers today can use this knowledge to interpret scenes of hospitality and cannibalism in Shakespeare and other early modern works. Content warning: cannibalism is discussed throughout this episode. Please listen with care.  Our guest: Carson Brakke is a PhD candidate at the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, and is writing her dissertation on representations of hospitality in early modern English literature. In addition to hospitality, her research interests include domesticity, food studies, and women's writing. To break up the solitary work of dissertating, Carson uses her TikTok platform to talk about early modern literature and the PhD experience. You can find her @glutenbergbible, where she's always looking to chat with more people about research, academia, and the weird and surprising sides of early modern English literature!

Irina Dumitrescu joins Tom for a Close Readings fusion episode looking at Chaucer's classical mind, and in particular his use of Ovid's Heroides in The Legend of Good Women, in which the poet does penance for his poor depictions of women by retelling the stories of Ariadne, Phaedra, Lucrece and others in a more sympathetic light. They discuss Chaucer's playful attitude to his sources and his mix of humour with serious observations on the presentation of women and their suffering in the classical tradition.Subscribe to Close Readings:In Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3pJoFPqIn other podcast apps: lrb.me/closereadings Hosted on Acast.

The panel concludes with an examination of Lucrece's central role as a Shakespearean protagonist, addressing her attitude towards the conflict between Roman shame and the natural law, and how her speech is situated across historical contexts.Continue reading

The panel reads the second third of Shakespeare's Lucrece, with particular attention to the paradoxical presentation of light and darkness, and to the dual nature of guilt and shame in the poem, as situated within a putatively historical Roman context.Continue reading

In the first of a three-part series on Shakespeare's Lucrece, the panel explores the Roman history and sources for the poem, before reading and examining its metaphors with a focus on Sextus Tarquinius' internal debate and final, abhorrent resolution.Continue reading

RNIB Connect Radio's Toby Davey is joined again by Vidar Hjardeng MBE, Inclusion and Diversity Consultant for ITV News across England, Wales, Northern Ireland and the Channel Islands for the next in his regular Connect Radio theatre reviews. This week Vidar was taken to an island full of strange sounds and wondrous sights with the Royal Shakespeare Company's production of The Tempest in Stratford upon Avon on Saturday 18 February at 1.15pm with audio description by professional Audio Describers Ellie Packer and Annette Stocken.  A mother and daughter struggle to survive on an island full of strange sounds and wondrous sights. Then one day, their long-lost enemies sail into view on the horizon. The world is out of kilter. Political unrest and an unsettled climate make for troubled times. People are out of kilter, too. Sibling rivalry and family rifts cause heartache and uneasy souls. The Tempest asks us to examine the delicate balance in our personal relationships as well as with the fragile ecosystems around us. What damage do we do to each other — and to the natural world? In the end, young love brings hope for a better life: perhaps healing ourselves and mending the planet are one and the same thing. Alex Kingston returns to the RSC to play Prospero in Shakespeare's elemental tale of survival and forgiveness. Elizabeth Freestone (former Artistic Director of Pentabus Theatre Company; The Rape of Lucrece, Swan Theatre; Crooked Dances, The Other Place) makes her Royal Shakespeare Theatre debut.

In a 16th century painting by Casper Stromayr, two men, presumably doctors, are standing behind a table on which a set of surgical instruments are laid out very neatly. In the notes for the painting we discover that some of the instruments are specifically for surgery of the eye.    Cataract surgery like the one being prepared for in this painting was just becoming widespread in Shakespeare's lifetime and was performed to remove the pearly film that developed over the surface of the eye.    In Shakespeare's The Tempest, Ferdinand uses the phrase “Those are pearls that were his eyes:” Again in Rape of Lucrece, Shakespeare calls attention to pearly eyes when he writes “His eye drops fire, no water thence proceeds; Those round clear pearls of his…”    Additionally, in both King Lear and Shakespeare's Henry VI Part II, there are references in the dialogue to specific procedures and even specific diseases of the eye. The novelty of this new surgery, combined with the very public and performative nature of the procedure itself– often being performed in the street on public display– it's plausible to think William Shakespeare may have been studying up on this new science. Based on the parallels found in Shakespeares plays, some scholars even suggest that William Shakespeare may have read Charles Estienne's Defence of Contraries, translated from French to English in 1593, or Thomas Cooper's 1578 medical dictionary that defines “cataractia” as “a disease of the eyes, when a tough humour like a gelly droppeth out.”  To help us explore the history of cataract surgery as well as the references to the procedure and eye disease we see in Shakespeare's plays is our guest and professional ophthalmologist, Dr. Chris Lefflfer.

Shakespeare uses the word “pearl” over 40 times across his works. He describes them as objects of high value, and in Troilus and Cressida, uses the pearl to describe a rare and valuable woman saying “she is a pearl, Whose price hath launch'd above a thousand ships.” The pearl trade was an industry well established under Henry VIII of England, who looked to the pearl trade as a way to strengthen England's international relations after separation from Catholicism left them in need of some strong allies. Elizabeth I continued this pursuit, but enhanced the value of the pearl in England up to six fold, by some scholarly estimates, over the  first 60 years in the 16th century due in part to the fact that the Queen literally wore thousands of them herself. Many of her most opulent outfits, appearing in numerous royal portraits of Elizabeth I, feature thousands of this precious gemstone. During Elizabeth's reign, England regularly imported pearls by the shipload from countries like Morocco, Persia, and China. The imagery and symbolism of the pearl in England is associated with purity, chastity, and even, as the description for the ocular disease cataracts, which Shakespeare alludes to in A Midsummer Night's Dream and Rape of Lucrece.   Our guest this week is Saoirse Laarachi, a PhD candidate with the Shakespeare Institute, and author of Pearls: Trade, Beauty and North Africa for Medieval and Early Modern Orients. She joins us today to share the history of pearls in Shakspeare's lifetime to discuss their use in general fashion, their purpose in international trade agreements, and what we should understand about Pearls from the Orient, specifically, when we find these references in Shakespeare's plays.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for November 15, 2021 is: wormhole • WERM-hohl • noun A wormhole is a hypothetical structure of space-time that is envisioned as a long thin tunnel connecting points that are separated in (well) space and time. // Some science fiction writers speculate that wormholes are the intergalactic highways of the future. See the entry > Examples: "Imagine space as a vast sheet of paper. You live at one end and you want to travel to the other end. Ordinarily you'd have to trudge across the entire length of the page to get there. But what if you folded the paper in half instead? Suddenly, where you are and where you want to be are right next to each other. You simply have to jump that tiny gap. We call these objects wormholes because it is like a worm trying to navigate its way around an apple. To get from the top to the bottom it has two choices: Crawl around the outside, or chew a shortcut through the middle." — Colin Stuart, Space.com, 13 July 2021 Did you know? If you associate wormhole with quantum physics and sci-fi, you'll probably be surprised to learn that the word has been around since William Shakespeare's day. To Shakespeare, a "wormhole" was simply a hole made by a worm, but even the Bard subtly linked wormholes to the passage of time; for example, in the poem The Rape of Lucrece, he notes time's destructive power "to fill with worm-holes stately monuments." To modern astrophysicists, a wormhole isn't a tunnel wrought by a slimy invertebrate, but a theoretical tunnel between two black holes or other points in space-time, providing a shortcut between its end points.

See the entry > Examples: "Imagine space as a vast sheet of paper. You live at one end and you want to travel to the other end. Ordinarily you'd have to trudge across the entire length of the page to get there. But what if you folded the paper in half instead? Suddenly, where you are and where you want to be are right next to each other. You simply have to jump that tiny gap. We call these objects wormholes because it is like a worm trying to navigate its way around an apple. To get from the top to the bottom it has two choices: Crawl around the outside, or chew a shortcut through the middle." — Colin Stuart, Space.com, 13 July 2021 Did you know? If you associate wormhole with quantum physics and sci-fi, you'll probably be surprised to learn that the word has been around since William Shakespeare's day. To Shakespeare, a "wormhole" was simply a hole made by a worm, but even the Bard subtly linked wormholes to the passage of time; for example, in the poem The Rape of Lucrece, he notes time's destructive power "to fill with worm-holes stately monuments." To modern astrophysicists, a wormhole isn't a tunnel wrought by a slimy invertebrate, but a theoretical tunnel between two black holes or other points in space-time, providing a shortcut between its end points.

Dorothea Dickerman returns as Steven's guest to discuss why the 3649 lines of poetry in "Venus and Adonis" and "The Rape of Lucrece" are well worth the read for Quillers on the trail of the Shakespeare authorship mystery. Dorothea uses her background as a lawyer to delve into Tudor law, politics, and first and third party historical documents to explain the details of these two epic poems, and why the works were part of a high stakes personal and political battle over the family secrets behind the verses.

Poetry is a deep lake with a strong current, or at least, it can be. Why one set of words can move us so much is a mystery, or it is an art. There are so many wonderful poets who have achieved this divine feat and I have only savoured but a few. I aim to slowly but surely address this oversight.I have chosen this poem because the subject matter is clearly relevant to the hateful side of our contemporary world. Despite the troubles forced upon us by the pandemic, women in particular have been made to suffer through an increase in domestic abuse, abuse at work, at university, out and about, anywhere and everywhere.This phenomenon has to stop! Sexual abuse has to stop! We need to come together and stop it!

Lucrezia is an opera in one act and three tableaux by Ottorino Respighi to a libretto by Claudio Guastalla, after Livy and William Shakespeare's The Rape of Lucrece, itself based heavily on Ovid's Fasti. Respighi died before finishing the work, which was therefore completed by his wife, Elsa Respighi, and by one of his pupils, Ennio Porrino. Lucrezia premiered on 24 February 1937 at the Teatro alla Scala in Milan, in a production directed by Mario Frigerio with sets designed by Pietro Aschieri. The première had a good reception.

Like many young black people, Lucrece Grehoua is an expert in code-switching - used to changing her voice, accent and mannerisms when she enters white-majority spaces. But should she really have to? In this programme, Lucrece reveals the cost of hiding who we really are in the workplace and explores the mechanics of code-switching, a term first used to describe the experience of African-American students in the 1970s. She shares her own story of being taught to become “a palatable black girl with a soft voice and an unceasing smile”. And she talks to other young professionals about the steps they’ve taken to fit in – from adopting a “white voice” in the office to changing how they behave and switching up their look. We also hear from those who, tired of code-switching, are daring to be themselves in the corporate world. Lucrece speaks to: Her friends Emmanuel Ajayi, Cheryl Jordan Osei and Ivan Her Mum and brother Steve Criminal barrister Leon Nathan Lynch Sociolinguist Devyani Sharma from the Accent Bias Britain Project Nels Abbey, author of Think Like a White Man, A Satirical Guide to Conquering the World While Black Elizabeth Bananuka, founder of BME PR Pros and The Blueprint Social Mobility Commissioner and lawyer Sandra Wallace Picture Credit: Jeff Overs/BBC

When William Shakespeare first began his career, we see evidence in his plays as well as life decisions that he was an ambitious man, almost constantly trying to secure connections with the right people in the right places to move his reputation upwards in society. One very key way we see Shakespeare intentionally seek out forward motion for his career is by his connection to Richard Field. Field is a printer who grew up in Stratford Upon Avon, likely going to the same school as William Shakespeare, and at the same time. The men both grew up to establish professional careers in London, and it seems William Shakespeare sought out Richard Field to publish Venus & Adonis as well as Rape of Lucrece which under Field’s direction, connections, and influence would go on to become the most popular poetry in all of Renaissance Europe. Today our guest Adam Hooks, the foremost expert on Richard Field, and author of the book Selling Shakespeare: Biography, Bibliography, and the Book Trade, and he joins us to introduce us to Richard Field, John Harrison, and their bookshop, The White Greyhound in London that would form the foundation for William Shakespeare’s success as a poet.  Adam G. Hooks is an Associate Professor in the Department of English and the Center for the Book at the University of Iowa. He us currently the editor for the Arden Shakespeare 4th series volume of "Poems."

Written for the Earl of Southampton in 1594, Shakespeare’s “Lucrece” recounts the fall of Rome’s corrupt kings. The precipitating event is the sexual assault of the noblewoman Lucrece by King Tarquin’s son. Her decision to come forward and demand justice leads to the rise of the Roman Republic. In this Bard Flies minisode, Will and James discuss how the story of Lucrece relates to our world today and how it contrasts with Shakespeare's "Venus and Adonis." // CREDITS // Intro Music: Jon Sayles, "The Witches' Dance" (composed by anonymous); Outro Music: Jon Sayles, “Saltarello” (composed by anonymous)

15 May 2020 | St. Isidore the Farmer | Roseburg, Ore. The academic year, that is! With final exams and papers safely behind me, I’m looking ahead to the summer and what lies beyond. In this episode: my summer plans (as much as any of us can predict them these days!), some final thoughts on “The Rape of Lucrece,” takeaways from Shakespeare’s first eighty sonnets, and preliminary comments on Othello, as well as what we can learn from the humble, miraculous life of a medieval Spanish farmer. Opening music: “Cantate Domino canticum novum,” composed by Claudio Monteverdi, performed by the Cambridge Singers, dir. John Rutter, London, 2009.

1 May 2020 | St. Joseph the Workman | Roseburg, Ore. On this triple feast day, we get caught up with FOUR (count ‘em!) Shakespearean plays: Hamlet, Two Gentlemen of Verona, the ending of Julius Caesar (finally!), and The Rape of Lucrece (not really a play, but there you go). Guys… I have some thoughts. Also: gearing up for finals week, the greatest thing I’ve learned so far in theology, what I’m most excited for in my pastoral year, and how to play “hide and go seek” with the Lord in quarantine! It’s all here, and the night is young and beautiful. Let’s go for a walk.

Of all Shakespeare's works, we were surprised to find that the most prescient and insightful thus far was not one of Shakepseare's plays, but one of his long form narrative poems. In the MeToo era, you'll find more willingness to discuss the terrible realities and long-lasting effects of sexual assault and gendered sexual power dynamics, but it was surprising to see them tackled so head-on in a poem from the 16th century. In this episode we talk about the gender politics the two contrasting poems put forward, the insanely high quality of Shakespeare's writing, and the amazing psychological and artistic depths he was already reaching at this point - all while providing some of the historical and literary context that would help a new reader approach the texts. This episode is also deserving of our first content warning, as we discuss sexual assault, unwanted sexual advances, and generally don't shy away from talking about the full range of what Shakespeare put forth in this unforgiving look at sex, desire, and power. Listen with care.

What does hair mean to us and our society? Christiane Sungu and Lucrece Wasolua-Kibeti, founders of Krowned, a social initiative aiming to empower young girls through haircare, indirectly explores this question during our conversation. Both as part-time models, a lawyer and a medical student respectively, bring to the table the 'silent' but visual conversation of hair, emphasising the importance of representation and embracing our identity, to build confidence in who we are. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/rootencial-conversations/support

It’s not every day you see an actress take on the role of rape victim, rapist and rape victim’s father but Camille O Sullivan is no ordinary actress. One only needs to look at her impressive and diverse career as both an actress and a singer to see that she likes to challenge herself creatively and likes to push boundaries. She is bringing an adaptation of Shakespeare’s epic narrative poem the rape of Lucrece to Drogheda’s Droichead Arts Centre as part of this year’s Drogheda Arts festival, difficult subject matter and no better woman than Camille O Sullivan to bring it to the stage. Here she talks Shakespeare, taking on the intense role and dueting with her partner actor Aidan Gillen. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Camille O’Sullivan has been treading the boards around Ireland and beyond for many years. As she returns to the Gate Theatre with Shakespeare’s The Rape of Lucrece this week, she speaks to Róisín Ingle about the production. She also talks about the life-changing car accident that saw her ditch architecture for a career as a singer, her boyfriend the actor Aidan Gillen, how her four and a half year old daughter Lila has changed her, and lots more.

William Shakespeare made his name as a poet before he became famous as a playwright. His erotic poem Venus and Adonis was the most popular work of literature of the Elizabethan Age, while its dark companion piece The Rape of Lucrece set the mould for Shakespeare's exploration of the tragic consequences of sexual desire turning to violence. Jonathan Bate will show how Shakespeare developed these themes from his reading of the great Roman poet Ovid.The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website: https://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/shakespeares-loversGresham College has been giving free public lectures since 1597.

Yet during these years, he kept a palm leaf bearing an astrologer's prophecy: 'You will marry a girl who is not from the village, not even from the country; she will be musical, own a jungle and be born under the sign of the ox'. It was a prophecy that would come true, but only after a 7,000 mile journey that would take him across continents, on a second-hand bicycle, to be with the woman he loved.

Wilson: Shakespeare went to London which afforded（给予） a wonderful environment for the development of drama. Shakespeare worked both as actor and playwright. He acted and wrote for the Lord Chamberlain's Men（侍从长剧团）, which was later renamed the King's Men（国王剧团）. Shakespeare established himself so well as a playwright that Robert Greene, one of the “University Wits”（大学才子派）, resentfully(充满憎恨地) declared him to be 'an upstart crow'. 粒粒： From about 1591 to about 1611, Shakespeare was in the prime of his dramatic career（莎士比亚戏剧事业的鼎盛时期） and his plays came out one after another. Shakespeare did not confine（局限） his genius merely to the theater. In 1593 and 1594, he published two narrative poems（长叙事诗）, Venus and Adonis《维纳斯和阿多尼斯》and The Rape of Lucrece《鲁克丽丝受辱记》, both of which were dedicated to the Earl of Southampton. (两首长诗题献给当时的年轻贵族——南安普敦伯爵The Earl of Southampton ). He also wrote sonnets, which were published in 1609. Part 2 莎士比亚名言 To be, or not to be. That is the question. 生存还是毁灭，这是一个值得考虑的问题。 Better a witty fool than a foolish wit. 宁为聪明的愚夫，不作愚蠢的才子。 A light heart lives long. 豁达者长寿。 Do not, for one repulse, give up the purpose that you resolved to effect. 不要只因一次失败，就放弃你原来决心想达到的目的。 　　In delay there lies no plenty, Then come kiss me, sweet and twenty, Youth's a stuff that will not endure. 　　迁延蹉跎，来日无多，二十丽姝，请来吻我，衰草枯杨，青春易过。 　　The time of life is short; to spend that shortness basely, it would be too long. 　　人生苦短，若虚度年华，则短暂的人生就太长了。 　　Don't gild the lily. 　　不要给百合花镀金/画蛇添足。 　　The empty vessels make the greatest sound. 　　满瓶不响，半瓶咣当。 　　The course of true love never did run smooth. 　　真诚的爱情之路永不会是平坦的。 　　Love, and the same charcoal, burning, need to find ways to ask cooling. Allow an arbitrary, it is necessary to heart charred. 　　爱，和炭相同，烧起来，得想办法叫它冷却。让它任意着，那就要把一颗心烧焦。 　　Laughter is the root of all evil. 　　笑是一切罪恶的根源。 　　Words can not express true love, loyalty behavior is the best explanation. 　　真正的爱情是不能用言语表达的，行为才是忠心的最好说明。 　　Love is a woman with the ears, and if the men will love, but love is to use your eyes. 　　女人是用耳朵恋爱的,而男人如果会产生爱情的话,却是用眼睛来恋爱。 简介字数有限，关注微信公众号“为你读英语美文”获得原文

On this episode of ‘XR University’ show host Ian Rath along with the lovely and talented Aiden Starr and special guest Erika Jordan discuss classic and modern Erotic Literature and how adult toys are used in some very famous works. Since man first put pen to paper Erotic Literature has been there. Ancient Greek and Roman wrote erotic verses about flogging and torture.

This first of it’s kind concept will have craft beer lovers chomping at the […]
