Download or read book The Lily s Tongue written by Frances Maughan-Brown and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 2019-10-01 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examines four discourses by Kierkegaard, arguing that they play a critical and surprising role in his oeuvre and contribute to the philosophy of figural language. How do texts speak with authority? That is the question at the heart of Kierkegaard’s theory and practice of “indirect communication.” None of Kierkegaard’s texts respond to this question more concisely and powerfully than the four discourses he wrote about the lily in the Gospel. The Lily’s Tongue is a nuanced, sustained reading of these Lily Discourses. Kierkegaard takes the lilies as authoritative, rather than merely “figural” or “metaphorical.” This book is a careful exploration of what Kierkegaard means by this authority. Frances Maughan-Brown demonstrates how Kierkegaard argues that the key is in the act of reading itself—no text can have authority unless the reader grants it that authority because no text can entirely avoid figural language. Texts don’t speak directly; their tongue is always the lily’s tongue. What is revealed in the Lily Discourses is a groundbreaking theory of figure, which requires a renewed reading of Kierkegaard’s major pseudonymous works. “Closely analyzing one of the least known yet most exacting series of texts in Kierkegaard’s authorship, his discourses on ‘the lily in the field and the bird of the air,’ Maughan-Brown breaks apart disciplinary barriers between theology, philosophy, aesthetics, and critical theory, while at the same time showing how Kierkegaard’s discourses can quietly illuminate a constellation of ideas drawn from Plato, Kant, Hegel, Benjamin, and Derrida. Following Kierkegaard’s texts to the letter, Maughan-Brown attends to what his texts do as much as to what they say.” — Peter Fenves, author of The Messianic Reduction: Walter Benjamin and the Shape of Time

Book excerpt: A house used to stand in a quiet, beautiful town. Inside, the Mirror of Memories, a one-of-a-kind treasure, was kept. This amazing mirror was different from all the others because it could show the most moving memories of the people who looked at it instead of their images. Lily is the main character of the story. She is a small, curious girl who finds this magical mirror while exploring her grandmother's attic. Without realizing it, she starts an amazing trip into her family's past. When Lily looks in the mirror, she is taken back in time to see the important events that shaped the lives of her ancestors. In the first memories she finds, her mother as a child is shown in great detail, which makes her amazed and interested in the past. As Lily learns more about her family's past and finds out long-lost stories and secrets, the mirror changes into a way for people to connect and understand each other. Thoughts, struggles, and successes of her ancestors come to life in the mirror, along with the events themselves. Lily has never seen her father act so bravely as he does when she sees him as a child. Lily learns from the mirror that her family has a long history of being strong and determined. A moving high point in Lily's journey is when she gets her grandma to look at herself in the mirror and sees her early goals and experiences. In addition to bringing people of different ages together, this experience gives Lily a sense of excitement and determination, which she sees in herself and in her goals. Lily's lessons from the mirror are becoming more and more important as she gets bigger. She knows that learning from the past is important, but so is living in the present and making plans for the future. By giving the mirror to her children with this knowledge, she makes sure that the Mirror of Memories' tradition lives on. As a result, the mirror becomes a treasured family heirloom that represents the power of remembering and the continuing of life. The Mirror of Memories is an interesting story that makes us think about how much our past has affected who we are now. It shows how important it is to hold on to memories, good and bad, because they shape who we are and help us live our lives. Through Lily's trip, the story masterfully shows how important learning is, how traditions are important, and how family ties last forever. Introduction: There was a wonderful mystery and wonder object called the Mirror of Memories in the middle of a quiet, peaceful town. Time seemed to move more slowly there, and the air was thick with whispers of the past. This wasn't like any other mirror. It was hidden in the dusty attic of an old house and had a feature that made it different from the other mirrors the locals knew. Someone looked into it and saw not only their own image, but also their deepest memories. It was a mysterious object with a lot of power and attraction. The story presents Lily, a young, active girl who is very curious and has a good heart. Lily lived in a quiet town with her family. Like most kids, she had lots of small adventures and enjoyed the simple things that life had to offer. But when she found the Mirror of Memories in her grandmother's attic, it was the start of an amazing trip that would take her far beyond her village and into the narrow paths of her family's past. Lily accidentally found the mirror in her grandmother's old house because she was interested and liked to find secret treasures. As soon as she saw the mirror, with its complicated frame and strange aura, she knew she had found something very strange. She didn't fully understand how magical the mirror was until she looked into it. Instead of seeing a mirror of herself, she saw vivid memories of her ancestors, one after the other, coming back to her like pages from a long-lost book. Lily starts to learn more about herself as the story goes on by looking at her ancestors' memories and learning about the stories that made her family who they are. In the mirror, she sees the joys, pains, wins, and tragedies of her relatives. Each memory teaches her something important about life, love, and how time moves on. This trip isn't just about learning about the past; it's also about making sense of the present, shaping the future, and realizing how important memories are in shaping who we are and how we live our lives. Lily's trip with the Mirror of Memories is magical; it seamlessly weaves together the past and the present, showing how she has grown and how her ancestors lived. Chapter 1: Finding something in the attic wasn't just a lucky find for Lily; it was the start of a journey into her family's past and into herself. When she looked into the beautiful old mirror, her eyes got really big. With its elaborate designs that looked like they were hiding decades of secrets, the frame spoke history with every carving. The dim glow from the mirror, which worked like a beacon, drew her in to get a better look. Everyday glass turned into a doorway to a different place and time as she did this. She looked in the mirror and instead of seeing herself, she saw this very real and vivid scene: In a sunny field, her mother laughed happily as she thought about her childhood. Although the sounds were dull, Lily had never seen colors that were so bright. It was almost like she could reach out and touch the grass or feel the sun's warmth on her skin. Lily had never seen her mother's early years, but this memory, frozen in time in the mirror, gave her a personal and telling look into those years. Lily knew that this mirror wasn't your average antique; it held memories, and many of them were probably just as powerful and moving as the one she had just seen. She felt her heart race at the thought of what other secrets it might hold. What did her ancestors do for a living? What happiness and sadness had they felt? The mirror has changed from a strange thing to a way to connect and understand. There were stories, successes, and tragedies in every family, but Lily knew that not many people could see them so clearly. This mirror did more than just show her image. It also let her go back in time and see the world through the eyes of her ancestors. She thinks that this will help her understand her place in the story of her family's past. As a child, hearing her mother laugh in that sunny field was more than just a nice memory. It showed the strength and joy that had been passed down through generations and were now resting with Lily, ready to be carried into the future.

Download or read book Lily s Ruination written by Alex Sestak and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2021-04-27 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In early nineteenth century England, a woman’s worth was rarely appreciated, and among the aristocracy (the ton) that especially applied to an intelligent woman. Lady Lily Maxwell, daughter to the earl and countess of Townsend, fit this category all too well. In the first ball of her first season, Lily sought refuge from the inane talk of her counterparts and the gentlemen around her by stepping outside. Unfortunately for her, this would lead to her ruin among the ton and even in the eyes of her parents, yet she had done nothing wrong. While most women would have borne their ruination in silence, Lily resolved otherwise. Angry at the ton’s unfair treatment, she left London for the countryside where she could begin constructing her revenge. With a convenient death in the family, and a chance meeting with others equally furious with the ton, she had all the tools she needed.
