	Russell (surname) Russell, also Rosel, Rousel, Russel or Rossell. The origin of the name has historically been subject to disagreement, with two distinct origins proposed. Early genealogists traced the Russel/Russell family of Kingston Russel from Anglo-Norman landholders bearing the toponymic surname 'de Rosel' or 'du Rozel', deriving from Rosel, Calvados, Normandy (not, as has also been claimed, Le Rozel, Manche).J. Horace Round,The Origin of the Russells, in ''Studies in Peerage and Family History'', Westminster: Archibald Constable and Company, Ltd., 1901, pp. 250-278 However, J. Horace Round observed that these flawed pedigrees erroneously linked toponymic-bearing men with unrelated men who instead bore the Anglo-Norman nickname ''rus l'' (represented in contemporary Latin documents as ''Rosellus''), given men with red hair. This nickname was a diminutive of the Norman-French ''rus'' (Old French ''ros'', Modern French ''roux''), meaning 'red', and was also an archaic name for the red fox,He ...

picture info	Persuasion (novel) ''Persuasion'' is the last novel completed by Jane Austen. It was published on December 20, 1817, along with ''Northanger Abbey'', six months after her death, although the title page is dated 1818. The story concerns Anne Elliot, an Englishwoman of 27 years, whose family moves to lower their expenses and reduce their debt by renting their home to an Admiral and his wife. The wife's brother, Captain Frederick Wentworth, was engaged to Anne in 1806, but the engagement was broken when Anne was persuaded by her friends and family to end their relationship. Anne and Captain Wentworth, both single and unattached, meet again after a seven-year separation, setting the scene for many humorous encounters as well as a second, well-considered chance at love and marriage for Anne. The novel was well-received in the early 19th century, but its greater fame came later in the century and continued into the 20th and 21st centuries. Much scholarly debate on Austen's work has since been published. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
