Routledge is a British publishing house which has operated under a succession of company names and latterly as an academic imprint. Its origins may be traced back to the 19th-century London bookseller George Routledge, who issued his first published book under contracted licence in 1836. He later founded a publishing company in partnership in 1851 with his brother-in-law, first formally incorporated under the name George Routledge & Co. For the remainder of the century the firm continued to grow and expand its range of popular illustrated fiction, travel and reference titles, undergoing some further partnership and name changes in the process. However by 1902 the company was running close to bankruptcy, but following a successful restructuring was able to recover and began to acquire and merge with other publishing companies. These early 20th-century acquisitions and mergers brought with them lists of notable scholarly titles, and it is from 1912 onwards as Routledge & Kegan Paul that the company became increasingly concentrated on and involved with the academic and scholarly publishing arena. It was soon particularly known for its titles in the social sciences fields.

In 1985 Routledge & Kegan Paul joined with Associated Book Publishers (ABP), which was later acquired by International Thomson in 1987. Under Thomson's ownership Routledge's name and operations were retained, and in 1996 a management buyout financed by the European private equity firm Cinven saw Routledge operating as an independent concern once more. Two years later in 1998 Cinven and Routledge's directors accepted a deal for Routledge's acquisition by Taylor & Francis Group (T&F;), with the Routledge name being retained as an imprint and subdivision. In 2004 T&F; became a division within Informa plc after a merger; Routledge continues as a publishing arm and imprint under the T&F; division, with a majority of its titles' range issued as academic humanities and social sciences books.

History

As a name in Camden publishing, it originates in 1836, when George Routledge (1812–1888) founded a firm with W. H. Warne. George Routledge and Co. was set up in 1851 with Frederick Warne, becoming Routledge, Warne & Routledge in 1858, and George Routledge and Sons when Warne left. After refinancing in 1902, the company took over J. C. Nimmo Ltd in 1903. In 1912 an amalgamation with Kegan Paul, Trench, Trübner & Co. created Routledge and Kegan Paul Ltd., a major London publishing house. Taylor & Francis bought Routledge in 1998.

People

The famous English publisher Fredric Warburg was a commissioning editor at Routledge during the early 20th century.

Encyclopedia

Taylor and Francis closed down the Routledge encyclopedia division in 2006. Some of its publications were:

Routledge Encyclopedia of Philosophy by Edward Craig (1998) in 10 volumes, but now online

Encyclopedia of Ethics by Lawrence C. Becker and Charlotte B. Becker (2002) in three volumes.

Routledge Encyclopedia of International Political Economy

Adel Taarabt () (born 24 May 1989) is a Moroccan footballer who plays for Queens Park Rangers as an Attacking Midfielder and can also be used as a Winger.

He began his playing career in France at Lens before moving to English Premier League team Tottenham Hotspur in 2007. He was unable to break into the first team at Spurs under either Juande Ramos or Harry Redknapp and moved to QPR, initially on loan, in July 2009 and then permanently in August 2010. He quickly established himself at Loftus Road and was made captain by manager Neil Warnock at the start of the 2010–11 season. He represented France at youth levels but opted to play for his native Morocco at senior level making his debut in February 2009.

Club career

Early career

Born in Fes, Morocco Taarabt grew up in Berre-l'Étang, France having moved there at the age of nine months. He began his career at Lens in 2004, and played 14 games for RC Lens B in the Championnat de France amateur. He made one first team appearance for Lens during the 2006–07 season.

Tottenham Hotspur

Taarabt signed for Tottenham Hotspur on a long-term loan on 2 January 2007 after the club offered to quickly integrate him into the first team to offer him maximum playing time. Within two months he made his first senior appearance in a Tottenham shirt, entering as a 87th minute substitute against local rivals West Ham United, which ended as a 4–3 victory. He made a second appearance in the 1–0 loss to Chelsea, again as a second half substitute, playing as a striker.

Tottenham signed Taarabt permanently on 8 June. Upon signing for Tottenham he was hyped as the next Zinedine Zidane. He scored his first goal for Spurs in a pre-season friendly against Stevenage Borough on 7 July. He made his first appearance of the 2007–08 season with Tottenham against Derby County in the 4–0 win on 18 August, which he entered at the 70th minute.

At the beginning of the 2008–09 season, Taarabt was not given a squad number by then manager Juande Ramos, though he was given his old number when Harry Redknapp took over team management.

On 13 March 2009, he joined Championship team Queens Park Rangers on loan until the end of the season. He scored his first goal for QPR in a 2–1 win over Bristol City. His loan spell was cut short after he suffered a knee injury which required surgery.

Taarabt rejoined QPR on a season-long loan for the 2009–10 season on 23 July 2009. On 1 October, Taarabt scored a "wonder strike" in a match against Preston North End. He collected the ball on his chest inside the QPR half and dribbling 20 yards past three players and curled in a shot from 25 yards. This led Jim Magilton to label Taarabt as a "genius" and the goal is seen as one of the Championship's finest.

Tottenham confirmed in October 2009 that Taarabt could stay at QPR for the season providing that a Premier League club did not make a bid for him in the January transfer window. QPR were unable to make the transfer a permanent one because they could not afford the £4.5 million valuation placed on Taarabt by Spurs.

In March 2010, Taarabt was quoted in an interview as being sorry that he signed for Tottenham. He had said "The big mistake was to sign for Tottenham and not go to another club when I first came over". He stated that he wished he had signed for Arsenal instead but had opted for Spurs after Damien Comolli moved from being a scout at Arsenal to director of football at Spurs. He stated that he felt he would have been given more chances to play at Arsenal and was advised at the time not to sign for Spurs by his friends Armand Traore and Abou Diaby, who play for Arsenal.

Taarabt went on to state his intention to sign for one of the top clubs in Spain "I hope to be playing for one of the top four in Spain next season – Real Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia or Sevilla. I have contact with good teams and I know that they want me. Now I just have to hope they can agree a deal with Tottenham." yet he still hasnt signed for any of them because he thinks he is better than what he is because if he was goo enough they would have signed him by now. PS now he back in the top flight he has done nothing for QPR and he has played shit because he his shit.

In January 2011, Taarabt was interviewed by the ''Evening Standard'', in which he stated: "The man who took me to Tottenham was Damien Comolli, now at Liverpool. He was at Arsenal then. But, when I was going to go to Arsenal, he moved to Tottenham. He told me: 'Come to Tottenham. We want to do like they do at Arsenal and take the best young players in the world. You're going to have a better chance there.' I believed him. This was a mistake and I regret it. Tottenham tried to do it like Arsenal but it's a different culture. I would have had a better chance at Arsenal. I would progress with Arsene Wenger. He is a legend in France, one of the best managers in the world".

Queens Park Rangers

Taarabt signed permanently for QPR on 4 August 2010 on a three-year contract for an undisclosed fee. He scored his first goal as a permanent QPR player during the first game of QPR's 2010–11 Football League Championship campaign against Barnsley, a penalty during the 4–0 win on 7 August 2010. Taarabt's performances for QPR during August 2010 earned him the Championship's Player of the Month award, as QPR topped the table.

In August 2010, with club captain Martin Rowlands a long-term injury victim and stand-in captain Fitz Hall unavailable, Taarabt was named captain. In December, manager Neil Warnock revealed that Taarabt would continue to serve as captain even after Hall's return from injury.

Taarabt was influential in QPR remaining unbeaten for the first 19 games of the season, equaling a club best dating back to 1972, before losing to Watford in December 2010. He scored key goals in games against the likes of Reading, Preston and fellow title contenders Cardiff as well as a stunning brace on boxing day to defeat eventual play-off winners Swansea 4-0.

By the end of February 2011, Adel had scored 15 Championship goals for the season. The 15th was scored from the penalty spot in a 3–0 away win at Middlesbrough. On 30 April, Taarabt scored the first of the goals in a 2–0 win over Watford to help crown his team as champions and securing promotion to the Premier League.

International career

Taarabt represented France at under-16, under-17 and under-18 levels, but opted to play for Morocco, saying "I felt the time was right when I was given this opportunity". On 11 February 2009 Taarabt played his first international match with Morocco in a friendly against Czech Republic in Casablanca. He also made an appearance on 29 March during Morocco's 2010 FIFA World Cup qualifier 2–1 defeat against Gabon.

Taarabt scored his first international goal on his first start on 31 March 2009 in a friendly 2–0 victory over Angola. On 6 September 2009 he scored his first goal in a competitive international match against Togo in the 2010 World Cup qualification after he broke through the opposing defence in stoppage time.

On 3 June 2011, Taarabt ended his international career after being dropped to the bench for an Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Algeria the following day.

Personal life

Taarabt is a Muslim and stated in an interview in June 2010 that this religion has had a significant impact on his life as a footballer:

"Being a Muslim has had a big impact on my professional life. As Muslims, we don't drink alcohol, we don't smoke, so essentially we've become healthier, more professional footballers because of our lifestyle. Before every game, I perform salah. Without it, I just don't feel confident. I make sure I pray after a match, too – to give thanks and be grateful for the stamina and strength God graced me with."

Taarabt credits his parents with keeping his religion in his life, with his choice to play professional football.

Katherine Patricia Routledge, CBE (born 17 February 1929) is an English character comedy actress and singer. She is best known for her role as character Hyacinth Bucket (pronounced Bouquet) in the British television series ''Keeping Up Appearances'' and Hetty Wainthropp in the British television series ''Hetty Wainthropp Investigates''. In addition to her roles in British television, she has a long and successful career in musical theatre, as well as in film.

Early life and education

Katherine Patricia Routledge was born in Tranmere, Birkenhead to parents Catherine and Isaac Routledge. She was educated at Mersey Park Primary School, Birkenhead High School, now a state-funded Academy school, and the University of Liverpool. At Liverpool she graduated with Honours in English Language and Literature and was not on a path to pursue an acting career. She was, however, involved in the school's Dramatic Society where she worked closely with the academic Edmund Colledge who both directed and acted in several of the society's productions. It was Colledge who persuaded her to pursue an acting career. After graduating from Liverpool, she trained at the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School and launched her acting career at the Liverpool Playhouse.

Theatre

Routledge has had a prolific career in theatre, particularly musical theatre, in the UK and the US. She has been a long-standing member of the Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC), appearing in such acclaimed productions as the 1983 Richard III, which starred Anthony Sher, who played the title role on crutches. Her West End credits include ''Little Mary Sunshine'', ''Cowardy Custard'', ''Virtue in Danger'', ''Noises Off'', ''The Importance of Being Earnest'', and ''The Solid Gold Cadillac'', as well as a number of less successful vehicles. A classically trained singer, she has occasionally made forays into operetta; including portraying the title role in an acclaimed production of Jacques Offenbach's ''La Grande-Duchesse de Gérolstein'' at the 1978 Camden Festival.

Routledge made her Broadway debut in the short-lived 1968 musical ''Darling of the Day'', for which she won the Tony Award for Best Actress in a Musical, sharing the honour with Leslie Uggams of ''Hallelujah, Baby!''. Following ''Darling of the Day'', Routledge had roles in several more unsuccessful Broadway productions including a musical called ''Love Match'', in which she played Queen Victoria; the legendary 1976 Leonard Bernstein flop, ''1600 Pennsylvania Avenue'', in which she portrayed every First Lady from Abigail Adams to Eleanor Roosevelt; and a 1981 musical called ''Say Hello to Harvey'', based on the Mary Coyle Chase play ''Harvey'', which closed in Toronto before reaching New York.

In 1980, Routledge played Ruth in the Joseph Papp production of ''The Pirates of Penzance'' co-starring American actor Kevin Kline and pop vocalist Linda Ronstadt, at the Delacorte Theatre in New York City's Central Park, one of the series of Shakespeare in the Park summer events. The show was a hit and transferred to Broadway the following January, but Estelle Parsons replaced Routledge. A DVD of the Central Park production, with Routledge, was released in October 2002.

In 1988 Routledge won a Laurence Olivier Award for her portrayal of the Old Lady in Leonard Bernstein's ''Candide'' in the London cast of the critically acclaimed Scottish Opera production. She played the role of Nettie Fowler to great acclaim in the 1993 London production of ''Carousel''. In a 2006 Hampstead Theatre production of ''The Best of Friends'', based on a book by Hugh Whitemore, she portrayed Dame Laurentia McLachlan, OSB. The play focused on her friendships with Sir Sydney Cockerell and George Bernard Shaw. In 2008 she played Queen Mary in Royce Ryton's play ''Crown Matrimonial''.

More recent work include the narrator in ''The Carnival of the Animals'' with the Nash Ensemble in 2010 and the role of Myra Hess in the play ''Admission: One Shilling'' in 2011.

Film and television

Routledge's screen credits include ''To Sir, with Love'' (1967), ''Pretty Polly'' (1967), ''The Bliss of Mrs. Blossom'' (1968), ''Don't Raise the Bridge, Lower the River'' (1968), and ''If It's Tuesday, This Must Be Belgium'' (1969).

Routledge's early television appearances included a role in ''Steptoe and Son'', in the episode "Seance in a Wet Rag and Bone Yard" (1974) as a clairvoyant called Madame Fontana. She also appeared in ''Coronation Street'', and as a white witch in ''Doctor at Large'' (1971). However, she did not come to prominence on television until she featured in monologues written for her by Alan Bennett from 1978 (''A Visit from Miss Protheroe'') and later Victoria Wood in the 1980s. She first appeared in Alan Bennett's ''A Woman of No Importance'' in 1982, and then as the opinionated Kitty in ''Victoria Wood As Seen On TV'' in 1985. She performed two further monologues in Bennett's ''Talking Heads'' in 1987 and 1998.

In 1990, Routledge landed the role of Hyacinth Bucket in the comedy series ''Keeping Up Appearances''. She portrayed a former working-class woman with social pretensions (insisting her surname be pronounced "bouquet") and delusions of grandeur (her oft-mentioned "candlelight suppers"). Routledge delighted in portraying Hyacinth as she claimed she couldn't stand people like her in real life. In 1991 she won a British Comedy Award for her portrayal, and she was later nominated for two BAFTA TV Awards in 1992 and 1993. The series ended at Routledge's request in 1995.

In 1995, Routledge accepted the lead in another long-running series, playing Hetty Wainthropp in the mystery drama ''Hetty Wainthropp Investigates'', co-starring rising star Dominic Monaghan as her assistant and Derek Benfield as her husband. It first aired in January 1996, and ran until the autumn of 1998, with one special episode in 1999.

She has also played several real-life characters on television including Barbara Pym and Hildegard of Bingen.

In 2001, Routledge starred in ''Anybody's Nightmare'', a fact-based television drama in which she played a piano teacher who served four years in prison for murdering her elderly aunt, but was acquitted following a retrial.

Radio and audio books

Routledge's extensive radio credits include several Alan Bennett plays and the BBC dramatisation of Carole Hayman's ''Ladies of Letters'', in which she and Prunella Scales play retired women exchanging humorous correspondence over the course of several years. A tenth series of ''Ladies of Letters'' premiered on BBC Radio 4 in 2009.

Having a distinctive voice, Routledge has also recorded and released a variety of audiobooks including unabridged readings of ''Wuthering Heights'' and ''Alice's Adventures In Wonderland'' and abridged novelisations of the Hetty Wainthropp series.

In 1966 she sang the role of Mad Margaret in ''Ruddigore'', the title role in ''Iolanthe'', and Melissa in ''Princess Ida'', in a series of BBC radio Gilbert and Sullivan recordings. She took part in a studio broadcast of Tchaikovsky's opera ''Vakula the Smith'' (narrating excerpts from the work by Gogol) in 1990. In 2006 she was featured in a programme of the 'Stage and Screen' series on Radio 3.

Personal

She has never married and has no children and currently resides in Chichester, West Sussex. She was appointed OBE in 1993, and CBE in 2004.
