She seemed a fresh, buoyant creature, with the radiance of love in her face, and hope playing like a benediction round her head. She was gazing with her large blue eyes across sunlit fields to the little farm on the heights; a soft smile played about her lips. Then suddenly she changed into Sarah Coverdale: the bright face grew drawn and haggard, the smile vanished, the lips seemed thin and tight; she was dressed in a counterpane, emblazoned with red and yellow texts. Her gaze continued to be directed towards Braisted; but now it was over cold wastes of twilight, broad and still, and her eyes were dim and expressionless. They were not sad, but the dreamer, as they met her glance, moaned in her sleep. Next morning Margaret Ellwood took her easel to a ruined cottage in one of the fields; but she sat doing nothing, or idly sketching, for over an hour. It was seldom that she felt undecided, but this problem fairly puzzled her. The old creeds were certainly the simpler: one could so easily follow a fixed rule, and let the consequences of one's act look after themselves. That the act should be righteous was the important point. But to care only for results, and not for righteousness; that was trying indeed, when the question resolved itself into: "Who is to be the sufferer? Why should this or that one be selected for the post of honor?" Some strange freak of Fate had placed the power in her hands, and it was her cruel task to select the victim. If she decided to use her influence, Dick would assuredly do exactly as she desired; this was almost a certainty. Bessie's fate lay at the mercy of a woman of whose very...

Download or read book The Return of the Moor written by Daniela Flesler and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the intense economic development and accelerated modernization experienced by Spain since the 1970s, and especially following its entrance to the European Economic Community in 1986, the country has undergone a rapid inversion in migratory patterns. After being an exporter of economic migrants for almost a century, in the last 20 years Spain has seen itself on the receiving end of immigration. Coinciding with a time when Spain is highlighting its belonging to Europe, the growing presence of Moroccan immigrants in particular confronts Spanish society with the repressed non-European, African and Oriental aspects of its national identity. The Return of the Moorexamines the anxiety over symbolic and literal boundaries permeating the Spanish reception of these immigrants through an interdisciplinary analysis of social, fictional and performative texts. It argues that Moroccans constitute a "problem" to Spaniards not because of their cultural differences, as many claim, but because they are not different enough. Perceived as "Moors," they conjure up past ghosts that continue to haunt the Spanish imaginary, revealing the acute tensions inherent to Spain's tenuous position between Europe and Africa.
