Book Description

Renowned fencing master Napier Gerard has been enjoying an opulent existence amidst the gaming clubs and coffee houses of late 18th‐century Paris, but this is about to change. Exiled from his native England and isolated by his reputation as a deadly duellist, he finds himself increasingly threatened by powerful enemies on both sides of the Channel. At the same time, the threat of terror and revolution is looming over France. It becomes clear to Napier that, to survive, he must flee to the American colonies. However, fate disrupts Napier’s plans, thrusting him into a series of perilous adventures. While he has the good fortune to be accompanied by the steadfast Will Styles, whose skill with a bow matches Napier’s with a sword, his ingenuity and courage are tested to their limits as he and Will navigate the dangers of the American wilderness. Napier soon finds himself unwillingly entangled in a colonial war, struggling not only against wild animals but also involved in battles that he never sought. Unbeknownst to him, his decision to escape France will lead him repeatedly to confront death itself.

Book Description

This book considers Early Modern revenge plays from a political science perspective, paying particular attention to the construction of family and state institutions. Exploring whether or not the plays see revenge as justified, McMahon argues that they suggest the private family should become an informal state apparatus, and considers the pertinence of this conclusion for contemporary politics. By mapping transactions of capital in and around the plays, this book discovers new ways of looking at traditional problematics. Considerations of plays such as The Spanish Tragedy, Hamlet, and The Revenger's Tragedydepart from the tradition of moral criticism by taking an anthropological stance, mapping capital transactions to come to a better understanding of the plays in all their brilliance and complexity. McMahon responds to deconstructionist, Marxist, and feminist readings as he studies symbolic and material forms of capital in exemplary Early Modern plays.

Book Description

Chante Britt is nobody’s fool—and she’s definitely not standing by her cheating ex-fiancé and current mayoral candidate, Robert Montgomery. Too bad he chose to tell the media otherwise. To escape an onslaught of prying reporters, Chante flees to her grandmother’s South Carolina beach house. But when she meets Zach Harrington, she may be out of the frying pan and into the fire. The man is arrogant, way too forward—and way too sexy... Newly divorced and dealing with a scandal of his own, Zach should stay clear of all women. Yet something about Chante draws him in—maybe it’s the drink she throws in his face after his too-hot-to-handle surprise kiss. Still, Zach firmly believes they can help each other take the edge off. And once he gets her to agree, what could have been a fling promises to be much more—until their personal and public dramas catch up with them. Will past wrongs keep them from finally having the love that’s right?

Book Description

There Were Bears and Rumors of Bears is a collection of stories that explores spiritual injury and recovery using a variety of interior and exterior narrative approaches to depict the profane and sacred, the mundane and non-ordinary, aspects of experience. In each story, the characters encounter situations in the physical world, and sometimes beyond the physical world, that create a pressure that forces them up against or through aspects of their emotional makeup causing profound changes. In "Where is the Sleeping Joe Bower. . ." a dream narrative is used as a springboard for interpretation and examination of the psyche of the dreamer, who is outside of the story. "The Hamburger U" offers a portrait of a young girl that is grounded in consensus reality, using elements of personal biography to offer an explanation for her depression and a death to suggest the distance she has to travel to escape the condition. "Riding the Sit Bones" and "There Were Bears ..." show the transforming power of male and female relationships on the psyche. "By this Gospel ..." and "Bb" speculate about the role of ancestry in the present emotional and spiritual conditions of the protagonists. "Some Things You Lose" honors the day to day struggles inherent in overcoming broken relationships and addiction, and "Greektown" juxtaposes violence and non-ordinary metaphysical experience. The collection is held together by a poetry of voice and examination of specific detail that is common to all of the stories, although the points of view and characters change

Book Description

Often considered the lowest depth to which cinema can plummet, the rape-revenge film is broadly dismissed as fundamentally exploitative and sensational, catering only to a demented, regressive demographic. This second edition, ten years after the first, continues the assessment of these films and the discourse they provoke. Included is a new chapter about women-directed rape-revenge films, a phenomenon that--revitalized since #MeToo exploded in late 2017--is a filmmaking tradition with a history that transcends a contemporary context. Featuring both famous and unknown movies, controversial and widely celebrated filmmakers, as well as rape-revenge cinema from around the world, this revised edition demonstrates that diverse and often contradictory treatments of sexual violence exist simultaneously.
