Blind Love, also known as Iris and The Lord Harry, is the final novel of Wilkie Collins, completed posthumously by Walter Besant. This poignant tale delves into the complex emotions of Iris, a virtuous woman who finds herself deeply enamored with the morally flawed Henry Norland. Her unwavering love blinds her to his numerous shortcomings, showcasing the depths of human affection and its contradictions. As with many of Collins works, this novel confronts pressing social issues, including the Irish Question and womens rights, adding rich layers to the narrative. - Summary by Carolin.

Story0
The rituals and pageantry of courtship in the 19th century can seem foreign to us today. Some of us may look back and see a more romantic age, while others will see a minefield of strict rules and stuffy protocol. Either way you look at it, it was worlds away from what dating is in the 21st century. In the six lessons of A Courtly History: Romance in the 19th Century, Professor Stephanie Insley Hershinow gives you a look at the complex and ever-evolving rules of romance in 19th-century Britain. Along the way, you will see why this fascinating era keeps drawing us back to novels and Netflix.

Since the end of the second World War, the United States has sunk hundreds of billions of dollars into foreign economies in the hope that its investments would help remake the world in its own image - or, at the very least, make the world "safe for democracy." So far, the returns have been disappointing, to say the least. Pushing for fair and free elections in undemocratic countries has added to the casualty count, rather than taken away from it, and trying to eliminate corruption entirely has precluded the elimination of some of the worst forms of corruption.
