  3. Could you work at Downton Abbey?

    I would bet you shillings to cents that at least 90% of the people who watch “Downton Abbey,” which returns to these TV shores on Sunday, would rather be the “upstairs” folk, the titled Crawley family, than the “downstairs” population of the maid- and menservants.

  8. A literary stamp to these three houses

    In 1937, poet Edna St. Vincent Millay came close to refusing an honorary degree from New York University when she learned she had been excluded from a reception for male recipients of the doctorate at the Waldorf-Astoria and instead was to have a quiet dinner with the chancellor's wife.

  11. Discoveries: 'The Magnetic North: Notes From the Arctic Circle' by Sara Wheeler

    The Magnetic North: Notes From the Arctic Circle by Sara Wheeler (Farrar, Straus and Giroux: 302 pp., $26). Calling all explorers! Here is an antidote to your shrinking life (should we go to Home Depot to look at cabinets this weekend, dear?). Sara Wheeler is an interloper in the world of "frozen beards," her fond phrase for the largely male world of Arctic exploration. Sixty-six degrees is her start and finish line — though many of the arctic zones she explores wobble around that arbitrary circle. She starts in the Russian Arctic, then travels around the navel of the globe — the American Arctic, the Canadian Arctic, Greenland, Svalbord, the European Russian Arctic and Lapland.
