Book excerpt: When history becomes handmaiden to archaeology. Nick Allemand has almost everything present and correct: a job in archaeology that he loves, acceptable-to-moderate looks, more money than he could ever hope to spend, a bijou house in Grantaford, and friends he can count upon for just about anything. But all that changes when his colleague and fellow archaeologist Ava Galaniou goes missing. Almost immediately, he is under suspicion for her disappearance, and on the run with few of the tools and little of the experience he needs. His search leads him to the tomb of all tombs - the long-lost Tomb of Alexander the Great - source of incredible power across the centuries, and a pyramid scheme with apparently little connection to Egypt. Will Nick adapt in time to survive the tests set by this long-dead ruler? And will he find Ava? It'll take a great deal of shattered light to find out... Book One of The Nick Allemand Series. From the author of The Fireblade Array. For fans of Indiana Jones, Mieville's The City & The City, Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code, Tomb Raider and many other Contemporary/Low Fantasy action and adventure stories with mystery, crime and a dash of history.

Book Voyage of the Sable Venus

Download or read book Voyage of the Sable Venus written by Robin Coste Lewis and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2015-09-29 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This National Book Award-winning debut poetry collection is a "powerfully evocative" (The New York Review of Books) meditation on the black female figure through time. Robin Coste Lewis's electrifying collection is a triptych that begins and ends with lyric poems meditating on the roles desire and race play in the construction of the self. In the center of the collection is the title poem, "Voyage of the Sable Venus," an amazing narrative made up entirely of titles of artworks from ancient times to the present—titles that feature or in some way comment on the black female figure in Western art. Bracketed by Lewis's own autobiographical poems, "Voyage" is a tender and shocking meditation on the fragmentary mysteries of stereotype, juxtaposing our names for things with what we actually see and know. A new understanding of biography and the self, this collection questions just where, historically, do ideas about the black female figure truly begin—five hundred years ago, five thousand, or even longer? And what role did art play in this ancient, often heinous story? Here we meet a poet who adores her culture and the beauty to be found within it. Yet she is also a cultural critic alert to the nuances of race and desire—how they define us all, including her own sometimes painful history. Lewis's book is a thrilling aesthetic anthem to the complexity of race—a full embrace of its pleasure and horror, in equal parts.

Book Historical Dictionary of U S  Latino Literature

Download or read book Historical Dictionary of U S Latino Literature written by Francisco A. Lomelí and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-12-27 with total page 519 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: U.S. Latino Literature is defined as Latino literature within the United States that embraces the heterogeneous inter-groupings of Latinos. For too long U.S. Latino literature has not been thought of as an integral part of the overall shared American literary landscape, but that is slowly changing. This dictionary aims to rectify some of those misconceptions by proving that Latinos do fundamentally express American issues, concerns and perspectives with a flair in linguistic cadences, familial themes, distinct world views, and cross-cultural voices. The Historical Dictionary of U.S. Latino Literature contains a chronology, an introduction, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has cross-referenced entries on U.S. Latino/a authors, and terms relevant to the nature of U.S. Latino literature in order to illustrate and corroborate its foundational bearings within the overall American literary experience. This book is an excellent access point for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about this subject.

Book The Cambridge History of Queer American Literature

Download or read book The Cambridge History of Queer American Literature written by Benjamin Kahan and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2024-06-06 with total page 1037 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Moby-Dick's Ishmael and Queequeg share a bed, Janie in Zora Neale Hurston's Their Eyes Were Watching God imagines her tongue in another woman's mouth. And yet for too long there has not been a volume that provides an account of the breadth and depth of queer American literature. This landmark volume provides the first expansive history of this literature from its inception to the present day, offering a narrative of how American literary studies and sexuality studies became deeply entwined and what they can teach each other. It examines how American literature produces and is in turn woven out of sexualities, gender pluralities, trans-ness, erotic subjectivities, and alternative ways of inhabiting bodily morphology. In so doing, the volume aims to do nothing less than revise the ways in which we understand the whole of American literature. It will be an indispensable resource for scholars, graduate students, and undergraduates.

Book The Other Latin

Download or read book The Other Latin written by Blas Falconer and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2011-10 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "With cultural roots in Mexico, Puerto Rico, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, or a variety of other locales, people of Hispanic origin in the United States are too often consigned to a single category. Falconer and López set out to change this with a diverse collection of essays that help answer the question: How can we treat U.S. Latina and Latino literature as a definable whole while acknowledging the many shifting identities within their cultures? This book sheds light on the dangers of abandoning identity by accepting cultural stereotypes and ignoring diversity within diversity. The contributors caution against judging literature based on the race of the author and lament the use of the term Hispanic to erase individuality"--Provided by publisher.

Book Quantitative Analysis of Poetic Texts

Download or read book Quantitative Analysis of Poetic Texts written by Ioan-Iovitz Popescu and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book presents methods for the objective analysis of poetic language. Common objects of literary studies such as rhythm, semantic explications, interpretation and personal impressions are avoided. Only those properties of poetic texts are taken into account that could be quantified. The major chapters contain the analysis of phonic phenomena (frequency, euphony, assonance, alliteration, aggregation, rhyme), word properties (aspects of frequency, length, richness, word classes, sequences of word properties, characterisations). The synergetic control cycle is the result of the study of mutual links between properties. For all methods both statistical tests (evaluation, comparison), theoretical derivations (models), and examples are presented. The book is dedicated to the work of the famous Romanian poet Mihai Eminescu whose complete work was analysed, which made detailed illustrations of the method possible. The methods can be used mutatis mutandis for any language and text. It is the first comprehensive quantitative analysis of a poetic work.

Delany—could mingle, network, and flirt with a new generation of emerging queer writers like Tony Kushner, Alison Bechdel, and Sarah Schulman.
