Memoirs of the Late Mrs. Robinson

The English actress, poet and society beauty of the late eighteenth century, Mary Robinson was known as “the English Sappho” and earned her nickname “Perdita” for her celebrated role as the heroine of Shakespeare’s ‘The Winter’s Tale’. Robinson’s work has in more recent times received critical attention, recognising her importance in the development of Romanticism. In her day, she was acknowledged as a leading poet and her verses demonstrate wit, charm, theatricality and emotional resonance. A poet of sensibility, as well as of popular culture, Robinson wrote poems that chronicle the major events of her time, employing aesthetic innovations. The Delphi Poets Series offers readers the works of literature’s finest poets, with superior formatting.

The Vows draws upon traditional Christian teachings on the holiness of the marriage promises between a man and a woman. It explains how they may pledge to one another their commitments to a permanent, trusting, and family-oriented relationship. Mary Robinson illustrates the challenges and joys of such vows with impressions drawn from her own life, insights gleaned from contemporary church leaders and authors, and inspiration drawn from the Scriptures. The beginning chapters of The Vows address the spiritual realities embedded in the phrases of the traditional marriage vow, showing how they capture the ups and downs of married life and sketch out a faithful response to those times. Later chapters turn their attention to the challenges that traditional marriage faces in modern society. Throughout, the author offers encouragement and exhortation that focus on helping the married couple remain committed to one another in the bond they had made before God. You may find the life-altering nature of marriage vows presents you with challenges and leads you to ask questions about Christian teachings. If so, then Robinson’s book will guide you on a journey through the meaning of the vows, give you a treasury of support from Christian leaders, and present you with a compendium of the Scriptures’ encouragement. When you finish reading this book you will have gained a clear understanding of the Christian ideals and aspirations for married life.

Shortlisted for the Political Book Awards 2013 Political Book of the Year The first woman President of Ireland, who became UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Mary Robinson has spent her life in pursuit of a fairer world. Now, for the first time, she reveals what lies behind the vision, strength and determination that has helped her to achieve so much for human rights around the globe. She describes the upbringing which gave her her strong sense of values and how she came into painful conflict with her parents - marrying against their wishes and, later, helping to legalise contraception in a deeply Catholic Ireland. As a barrister she won landmark cases advancing the causes of women and the marginalised against the prejudices of the day. When - to the surprise of many - she became the first woman President of Ireland in 1990, she put Ireland firmly on the international stage. Accepting the position of UN High Commissioner for Human Rights in 1997 was her biggest challenge and here she describes the huge political difficulties she encountered among the many triumphs. Subsequently, based in New York, she led Realizing Rights for eight years, pioneering how to implement in practice economic and social rights: working in African countries on health, decent work, corporate responsibility and women's empowerment in peace and security. Now heading her own Climate Justice foundation she has succeeded in finding the independence she needs to work effectively on behalf of the millions of poor around the world most affected by climate change. Told with the same calm conviction and modest pride that has guided her life, Everybody Matters will inspire everyone who reads it with the belief that each of us can, in our own way, help to change the world for the better.

Exposing the realities of this world and showing how humans have forsaken the morals and values by which they should live, author Mary Robinson discusses the necessity of acknowledging the wisdom that God has supplied humankind. Through her personal testimony, she shares how she was led to Christ and has not looked back. In From Disgrace to Grace, Robinson explains how the two sins of fornication and adultery are destroying lives. She reveals the path to begin living a life that God intended, which involves changing a mind-set to live a godly life; knowing God by having a personal relationship with him; understanding God’s will and honoring his word; showing appreciation for the grace he bestows; avoiding fornication and adultery; and renouncing the devil. Through Bible scripture, From Disgrace to Grace shows how to live by the words of God and be thankful that he gave humans the Holy Spirit to endure the challenges faced in life.
