From Miss Manners, the long-time oracle on matters of etiquette and social relationships, here is a contemporary guide to being civilized in the modern world, based on her replies to real letters from readers of her celebrated syndicated newspaper column. Although some of her advice has an old-fashioned ring to it--she favors politeness, school uniforms and careful courtship, and rather disapproves of too much television--she can handle herself on very up-to-date problems like date rape and online etiquette. For problems from the trivial to the life-shattering, Miss Manners has answers that are rarely superficial, and usually fun..

Dissing Elizabeth focuses on the criticism that cast a shadow on the otherwise celebrated reign of Elizabeth I. The essays in this politically and historically revealing book demonstrate the sheer pervasiveness and range of rhetoric against the queen, illuminating the provocative discourse of disrespect and dissent that existed over an eighty-year period, from her troubled days as a princess to the decades after her death in 1603.
As editor Julia M. Walker suggests, the breadth of dissent considered in this collection points to a dark side of the Cult of Elizabeth. Reevaluating neglected texts that had not previously been perceived as critical of the queen or worthy of critical appraisal, contributors consider dissent in a variety of forms, including artwork representing (and mocking) the queen, erotic and pornographic metaphors for Elizabeth in the popular press, sermons subtly critiquing her actions, and even the hostility encoded in her epitaph and in the placement of her tomb. Other chapters discuss gossip about Elizabeth, effigies of the queen, polemics against her marriage to the Duke of Alençon, common verbal slander, violence against emblems of her authority, and the criticism embedded in the riddles, satires, and literature of the period.
