Download or read book Spellbound written by Marcia Montenegro and published by David C Cook. This book was released on 2013-08-05 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our culture is saturated with the supernatural. TV shows such as Medium, Charmed, and Lost all have an "other-worldly" theme. Most of them blur the lines between good and evil. This past year was a "record" year for Hollywood in the production of films that dealt with the supernatural/paranormal. While we choose our entertainment, our kids don't often have the luxury of choosing whether to be exposed to these things at school. This book seeks to present a lucid and comprehensive examination of the paranormal and occult by breaking down the principles of paranormal practices, giving key points about the practices so that parents can readily identify them. The book discusses the occult view of supernatural energy and of good and evil, and how these concepts are seen in some popular literature and movies. The book also explains the dangers and gives a biblical basis for concern. Christian parents need to be equipped to discuss these matters with their children!

Download or read book Willing Seduction written by Barbara Kosta and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2012 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Josef von Sternberg's 1930 film The Blue Angel (Der blaue Engel) is among the best known films of the Weimar Republic (1919-1933). A significant landmark as one of Germany's first major sound films, it is known primarily for launching Marlene Dietrich into Hollywood stardom and for initiating the mythic pairing of the Austrian-born American director von Sternberg with the star performer Dietrich. This fascinating cultural history of The Blue Angel provides a new interpretive framework with which to approach this classic Weimar film and suggests that discourses on mass and high culture are integral to the film's thematic and narrative structure. These discourses surface above all in the relationship between the two main characters, the cabaret entertainer Lola Lola (Marlene Dietrich) and the high school teacher Immanuel Rath (one-time Oscar winner Emil Jannings). In addition to offering insight into some of the major debates that informed the Weimar Republic, this book demonstrates that similar issues continue to shape the contemporary cultural landscape of Germany. Barbara Kosta thus also looks at Dietrich as a contemporary cultural icon and at her symbolic value since German unification and at Lola Lola's various "incarnations."

Download or read book The Pirate s Seduction written by Bethany M. Sefchick and published by Bethany Sefchick. This book was released on 2019-06-12 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the passing of her beloved grandfather and infant son, Lady Lucy Woodfield is being sent to Montserrat to become an elderly plantation owner’s mistress, mostly so she won’t become an embarrassment for her remaining family. Before she can reach her destination, however, her ship is attacked by pirates, and she is taken captive. Since her family refuses to pay the ransom, Lucy is to be sold into slavery, most likely becoming a prostitute in one of the area’s many brothels. “Bloody” Harry Blackburn is a pirate captain in desperate need of a woman – a very specific type of woman. Harry needs a lady of Quality who can give him a son so that he may claim a portion of an aristocratic English title for his own. Fortunately for him, Lucy just happens to be the sort of lady he’s seeking. Unfortunately, there’s a price on Harry’s head, and he’s being hunted by one of the most fearsome pirates in the West Indies – all over a simple misunderstanding about some gold. Can Lucy be what Harry desires, or will her past prevent her from understanding that Harry needs more than just a warm body in his bed? Will Harry ever realize that Lucy is far more than just a delicate English lady? And will they both manage to evade Boucher the Butcher and find a future together? Is it hot? Yes, it is! Please be advised that this 80,200-word novel is written in the true spirit of pirates, including “salty” language and extremely sexual situations that would be historically appropriate for that era. It is NOT a “sweet and clean romance” and is intended for those seeking a MUCH hotter and sexier read while still looking for a romantic happily ever after. This novel is not appropriate for younger audiences.

Download or read book Delmira Agustini Sexual Seduction and Vampiric Conquest written by Cathy L. Jrade and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2012-07-10 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Delmira Agustini (1886-1914) has been acclaimed as one of the foremost modernistas and the first major woman poet of twentieth-century Spanish America. Critics and the reading public alike were immediately taken by the originality and power of her verse, especially the aggressively sexualized perspective never before found in texts written by Spanish American women. Agustini sought, like the men around her, to free herself and her writing from traditional sexual limitations. Even more daringly, she responded to their language with her own feminized discourse, developing an innovative way of expressing her sexual and artistic expressions." -- Book jacket.

Download or read book Mad World The Seduction of Insanity written by Mark Romel and published by Magus Books. This book was released on with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Blaise Pascal said, "Men are so necessarily mad, that not to be mad would amount to another form of madness." Crazy people get locked up. Their madness is easy to detect. They have drastically disordered thoughts. It's as if their dream content is leaking into their daytime reality. They don't make sense. They can't keep it together. They're incoherent. They can't interact meaningfully with others. They have lost touch with reality. But what if there's a second kind of madness, a much more subtle and dangerous kind that goes unnoticed? In this version of madness, people have ordered thoughts, indeed often highly ordered. They make sense. They keep it together. They can meaningfully interact with others, often brilliantly, and they seem completely in touch with reality. What's not to like? Not one of them is locked up. Far from it. In fact, some of them are running our world.
Download or read book Penelope Voyages written by Karen R. Lawrence and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-08-06 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Looking at travel writing by British women from the seventeenth century on, Karen R. Lawrence asks an intriguing question: What happens when, instead of waiting patiently for Odysseus, Penelope voyages and records her journey—when the woman who is expected to waitsets forth herself and traces an itinerary of her own? Lawrence ranges widely, discussing both fiction and nonfiction and traversing the genres of travel letters, realistic and sentimental novels, ethnography, fantasy, and postmodern narrative. In examining works as dissimilar as Margaret Cavendish's rendition of the Renaissance adventure narrative and Christine Brooke-Rose's postmodernist Between, she explores not only the significance of gender for travel writing, but also the value of travel itself for testing the limits of women's social freedoms and restraints. Lawrence shows how writings by Frances Burney, Mary Wollstonecraft, Sarah Lee, Mary Kingsley, Virginia Woolf, and Brigid Brophy reconceive the meanings of femininity in relation to such apparent oppositions as travel/home, other/self, and foreign/domestic. Despite the differences-historical, generic, political-among these writers, Lawrence maintains, they share common insights. Their accounts overturn the dichotomy between adventure and domesticity, demonstrating something illusory within both the stability of home and the freedom of travel.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many of my poems are indeed Goddess poems, prayers, and invocations acknowledging the feminine power of the universe. In my opinion they speak with a beautiful romantic expression and are in truth with the times. They are bold, passionate, and exciting, speaking with an original voice which I believe may capture the reader's imagination. My poems are confessional, extremely erotic with radical overtones that I will not apologize for. I simply wish to speak truthfully!
