Book excerpt: In December 1995, three leading members of what became known as the Essex Boys gang were lured to an isolated farm track in the village of Rettendon Essex. Two men, Mick Steele and Jack Whomes arranged the meeting which was supposedly to discuss a consignment of drugs that was being imported by light aircraft. The meeting, was in fact a trap. Whomes shot Craig Rolfe, Pat Tate and Tony Tucker when their Range Rover came to a halt in the lane. To fulfil his part of a gruesome pact, Steele also shot the stricken men. The murders made headline news. Nearly three decades on, more films have been made about the Essex Boys than any other gang in British criminal history. Most people have now heard of them. However, the numerous newspaper articles, books and films have focused solely on Tucker, Tate, Rolfe and their murders. Few know little or indeed anything about the other gang members and what happened to them in the wake of the executions. Here, for the first time, ex-gang member and now best-selling author, Bernard O`Mahoney reveals the trials, tribulations and in some cases, the gruesome end of his former partners in crime. Some were murdered, others became murderers, few walked away unscathed. The story unfolds alongside O`Mahoney's own remarkable journey which is littered with violence, shocking tragedies, deep regret...but always hope.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Madness in Experience and History brings together experience and history to show their impact on madness or mental illness. Drawing on the writings of two twentieth-century French philosophers, Maurice Merleau-Ponty and Michel Foucault, the author pairs a phenomenological approach with an archaeological approach to present a new perspective on mental illness as an experience that arises out of common behavioral patterns and shared historical structures. Many today feel frustrated with the medical model because of its deficiencies in explaining mental illness. In response, the author argues that we must integrate human experiences of mental disorders with the history of mental disorders to have a full account of mental health and to make possible a more holistic care. Scholars in the humanities and mental health practitioners will appreciate how such an analysis not only offers a greater understanding of mental health, but also a fresh take on discovering value in diverse human experiences.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This seminal book examines the dramatic implications of the grotesque in Romantic aesthetics. There are currently no book-length studies exploring the drama of the Romantic grotesque, a category that accentuates multiplicity and hybridity. The post-Kantian philosophy backing Friedrich Schlegel’s Romantic irony provides the most decisive rationalisation of this plurality through theatrical play, and forms the theoretical framework for this study. Poetry and philosophy are merged in Schlegel’s attempt to create Romantic modernity out of this self-conscious blurring of inherited perspectives and genres – a mixing and transgressing of past demarcations that simultaneously create the condition of the Romantic grotesque. The other writers examined in this book include A. W. Schlegel, Stendhal, Victor Hugo, and Baudelaire. The primary question is: how is the grotesque used to re-evaluate notions of aesthetic beauty? An answer emerges from a study of those thinkers in Schlegel’s tradition who evolve a modern, ironic regard for conventional literary proprieties. Furthermore, how does the grotesque rewrite ideas of poetic subjectivity and expression? Here, Back and Forth foregrounds the enormous importance of Shakespeare as the literary example supporting the new theories. Shakespearean drama, which crosses aesthetic borders, legitimises the grotesque while reflecting the blood and gore of a post-Revolutionary Europe. Consequently, in reviewing hybrid texts like the Schlegelian fragments, Stendhal’s Racine et Shakespeare, Hugo’s Préface de Cromwell, and Baudelaire’s De L’Essence du Rire, this book uses theories of continental Romanticism to reposition the significance of a vitally radical English aesthetic. Through this, Back and Forth claims that the Romantic revisioning of the Shakespearean grotesque helps create the ideas of post-Revolutionary modernity that are crucial to the larger projects of European Romanticism, and the ideas of modernity emerging from them.
