Download or read book Echoes from the Past written by Dirk Pool and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Katelyn is a young lady who works as an evening desk clerk at a motel. She put herself through university to become a historian. Katelyn is a dreamer, and any piece of history that she studies, she puts herself and her boyfriend, Rolland, in that history piece. Of course, Rolland doesnt know that her history dreams also involve him. Rolland respects Katelyn for the stand she has taken not to have sex before marriage. He would love to propose to her, but he wants to see her fulfill her dream of working in a museum in a major city. Katelyn is unaware that Rolland wants her dream to come true, so she often finds herself frustrated because he isnt proposing to her. They struggle with desires to have sex, but respect always seems to win. Since Katelyn refuses to have sex unless she is married, her dreams into history with Rolland never go anywhere sexually either. Katelyn thinks about Rose from the movie Titanic, and she struggles within herself that she might never experience that kind of joy with Rolland. Of course, she would rather refrain from sex then to give into it if Rolland has no intentions of marrying her. Although Rolland doesnt know that he is in Katelyns historical dreams, he is aware of her dreaming about history, and when she gets the far off look in her eyes, he just lets her dream until her mind brings her back to the present day. He also finds it hard not to propose to the woman he wants to spend the rest of his life with, but his love for her prevents him from proposing because he wants to see her fulfill her dream first, even though his desires for her are very strong.

Book excerpt: The inspiration for the Lifetime movie and a guide for parents confronting their autistic children's journeys to adulthood. Parents of autistic children often wonder: What will happen to our kids when they grow up? Can they work? Have relationships and their own families? Here is the poignant story of one woman watching her autistic boys reach adulthood. A single mother barely making ends meet, Corrine Morgan-Thomas could hardly afford doctors for her twins, Stephen and Phillip. After their diagnosis of autism, no one else thought these boys would ever amount to anything. But Corrine managed single-handedly to keep the boys out of institutions-and in "regular" school. And their inspiring story became Lifetime television's Miracle Run. The real miracle, though, was what happened where the movie left off-when Stephen and Phillip graduated to face adult autism. From their diagnosis to the present day, when the boys have grown into young men leading happy lives, Corrine's eye-opening story is full of candor, humor, and most of all, hope.

Download or read book Echo s Voice written by Mary Noonan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Helene Cixous (1937-), distinguished not least as a playwright herself, told Le Monde in 1977 that she no longer went to the theatre: it presented women only as reflections of men, used for their visual effect. The theatre she wanted would stress the auditory, giving voice to ways of being that had previously been silenced. She was by no means alone in this. Cixous's plays, along with those of Nathalie Sarraute (1900-99), Marguerite Duras (1914-96), and Noelle Renaude (1949-), among others, have proved potent in drawing participants into a dynamic 'space of the voice'. If, as psychoanalysis suggests, voice represents a transitional condition between body and language, such plays may draw their audiences in to understandings previously never spoken. In this ground-breaking study, Noonan explores the rich possibilities of this new audio-vocal form of theatre, and what it can reveal of the auditory self.

Download or read book Voice Terminal Echo Routledge Revivals written by Jonathan Goldberg and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-10-10 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1986, this title examines a set of English Renaissance texts by Shakespeare, Spenser, Herbert, Marvell and Milton, within the theoretic framework of postmodern thought. Following an opening chapter that argues for the value of this conjunction as a way of understanding literary history, subsequent chapters draw upon Jacques Derrida’s deconstruction of photocentrism and Jacques Lacan’s analysis of the agency of the letter to offer fully theorized readings. Throughout, there is a sustained concern with the transformations of such Ovidian figures as Narcissus and Echo, Perseus and Medusa, Orpheus and Eurydice, and with the echo effects of Virgilian pastoral, as paradigms for the interplay of voice and writing.
