Beloved (novel)
''Beloved'' is a 1987 novel by American novelist Toni Morrison. Set in the period after the American Civil War, the novel tells the story of a dysfunctional family of formerly enslaved people whose Cincinnati home is haunted by a malevolent spirit. The narrative of ''Beloved'' derives from the life of Margaret Garner, an enslaved person in the slave state of Kentucky who escaped and fled to the free state of Ohio in 1856. Garner was subject to capture under the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850, and when U.S. marshals broke into the cabin where she and her husband had barricaded themselves, she was attempting to kill her children—and had already killed her youngest daughter—in hopes of sparing them from being returned to slavery. Morrison's main inspiration for the novel was an account of the event titled "A Visit to the Slave Mother who Killed Her Child" in an 1856 newspaper article initially published in the ''American Baptist'' and reproduced in ''The Black Book'', an antholog ...

Critical reception At ''Alternative Press'', Dan Slessor rated the album four stars out of five stars, stating that "the finished product more than justifies the wait." Andrew Kapper of About.com concluded that "Beloved is without doubt a strong comeback for the band, but it does have a couple of weak points in the armor, both of which fall into the same category. The lack of big anthems will probably make the album uneventful for casual fans, while the heavier parts rely on the same format and almost become indistinguishable from one another."

The song was written by Marcus Mumford, Winston Marshall, Ben Lovett and Ted Dwane. Background In a statement talking about the song, Marcus Mumford said, "Everyone knows loss in one way or another. This song is about that. I'd never sat with anyone as they died before, and it had an effect on me. As it does everyone I know who has experienced it. But there's wildness and beauty in it as well, and a deep honoring, that became the beginnings of this song that we worked up called 'Beloved'. I feel determined for people to take whatever they want from it, and not to be emotionally prescriptive." Composition A ballad, its sound recalls the band's upbringing in the London underground folk and Americana scene.

The Beloved (Rossetti Painting)
''The Beloved'' (also ''The Bride'') is an oil painting on canvas by the English artist Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1828 – 1882), now in Tate Britain, London. Rossetti signed his initials (as a monogram) and the date as "1865-6" on the bottom left of the canvas. It depicts the bride, or "beloved", from the '' Song of Solomon'' in the Hebrew Bible as she approaches her bridegroom, with her attendants. The bride, caught in the action of moving back her veil, is attended by four virginal bridesmaids and an African page, who contrasts strikingly with the red hair and pale skin of the bride, and the varying shades of brunette hair and skin tones of the four bridesmaids. It has been suggested that this colour contrast, carefully painted as a frame to the bride's features, was influenced by Édouard Manet's controversial painting '' Olympia'', in progress when Rossetti visited Manet's studio in late 1864 while working on ''The Beloved'', and the painting also owes much to the works o ...
