Caught between the passion of first love, and the steady beat of the life she's always known, Rose must choose between the innocence of her youth or the pleasures of womanhood -- but lost innocence comes at a price, and Rose harbors a dark secret that could destroy everyone she loves -- including Derek.

Download or read book Innocence Uncovered written by Elizabeth Dodd and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Innocence is a rich and emotive idea, but what does it really mean? This is a significant question both for literary interpretation and theology—yet one without a straightforward answer. This volume provides a critical overview of key issues and historical developments in the concept of innocence, delving into its ambivalences and exploring the many transformations of innocence within literature and theology. The contributions in this volume, by leading scholars in their respective fields, provide a range of responses to this critical question. They address literary and theological treatments of innocence from the birth of modernity to the present day. They discuss major symbols and themes surrounding innocence, including purity and sexuality, childhood and inexperience, nostalgia and utopianism, morality and virtue. This interdisciplinary collection explores the many sides of innocence, from aesthetics to ethics, from semantics to metaphysics, examining the significance of innocence as both a concept and a word. The contributions reveal how innocence has progressed through centuries of dramatic alterations, secularizations and subversions, while retaining an enduring relevance as a key concept in human thought, experience, and imagination.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: RAPED!!! "PRESUMED INNOCENCE" is an adult autobiographical novel which graphically depicts Ms. Ketteringham's true memories of her childhood experience of having been deceived, lured, restrained and raped at 14. For over 50 years, these memories have haunted her thoughts and fueled her emotional roller-coaster. Details were gleaned from recurrent nightmares, hypnotherapy, psychotherapeutic hypnotic age regressions and journals. Courageously, desiring for cathartic release of pain, the author peers through snaking veils of her soul to confront her demons and understand memories of childhood abuse and sexual victimization imprinted onto her brain. This memoir is about the author's pain, resilience and hope-the miracle of her story. Sharing details of her sexual exploitation was the catalyst for the resulting abreaction which has set her soul free from agony's bondage. She hopes her courage may help other victims reconcile similar memories and move towards their personal psychological wellness.

Download or read book Civic Longing written by Carrie Hyde and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2018-01-11 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Citizenship defines the U.S. political experiment, but the modern legal category that it now names is a relatively recent invention. There was no Constitutional definition of citizenship until the ratification of the Fourteenth Amendment in 1868, almost a century after the Declaration of Independence. Civic Longing looks at the fascinating prehistory of U.S. citizenship in the years between the Revolution and the Civil War, when the cultural and juridical meaning of citizenship—as much as its scope—was still up for grabs. Carrie Hyde recovers the numerous cultural forms through which the meaning of citizenship was provisionally made and remade in the early United States. Civic Longing offers the first historically grounded account of the formative political power of the imaginative traditions that shaped early debates about citizenship. In the absence of a centralized legal definition of citizenship, Hyde shows, politicians and writers regularly turned to a number of highly speculative traditions—political philosophy, Christian theology, natural law, fiction, and didactic literature—to authorize visions of what citizenship was or ought to be. These speculative traditions sustained an idealized image of citizenship by imagining it from its outer limits, from the point of view of its “negative civic exemplars”—expatriates, slaves, traitors, and alienated subjects. By recovering the strange, idiosyncratic meanings of citizenship in the early United States, Hyde provides a powerful critique of originalism, and challenges anachronistic assumptions that read the definition of citizenship backward from its consolidation in the mid-nineteenth century as jus soli or birthright citizenship.
