Remembering little of her past, Eoin’s only personal possession is a medallion inherited from her father.

Book excerpt: Skye, Jailynn, and Phrena, 17-year-old girls, attend high school at Hirkami Castle. One of the girls pastimes was to explore the unoccupied parts of the castle. During one of these searches, the girls happened upon a room full of treasures. There, Skye found a golden medallion with a dragons head engraved on one side. As she held the coin, it flashed blue and made her tingle from head to toe as if electrified. Suddenly, a dragon mark, like a tattoo, appeared on her right wrist. It was not like the dragon coins face, but that of a dragon in a circle as if to eat its own tail. Later, the three girls unwittingly traveled through a magic portal to the land of Corux. Corux is a parallel world of ancient ways. It is a land of magic, mages, and royalty. And a dragon awakens

Download or read book Dragon written by Martin Arnold and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2018-06-15 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the fire-breathing beasts of North European myth and legend to the Book of Revelation’s Great Red Dragon of Hell, from those supernatural agencies of imperial authority in ancient China to the so-called dragon-women who threaten male authority, dragons are a global phenomenon, one that has troubled humanity for thousands of years. These often scaly beasts take a wide variety of forms and meanings, but there is one thing they all have in common: our fear of their formidable power and, as a consequence, our need either to overcome, appease, or in some way assume that power as our own. In this fiery cultural history, Martin Arnold asks how these unifying impulses can be explained. Are they owed to our need to impose order on chaos in the form of a dragon-slaying hero? Is it our terror of nature, writ large, unleashed in its most destructive form? Or is the dragon nothing less than an expression of that greatest and most disturbing mystery of all: our mortality? Tracing the history of ideas about dragons from the earliest of times to Game of Thrones, Arnold explores exactly what it might be that calls forth such creatures from the darkest corners of our collective imagination.

Download or read book Vitreous Vitae written by Ashley J. Laverock and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2024-11-11 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Vitreous Vitae: St. Margaret of Antioch in Thirteenth-Century Stained Glass, Ashley J. Laverock considers the representation of the virgin martyr St. Margaret in thirteenth-century stained-glass windows in Europe. These windows appeared at a moment when Margaret’s cult was expanding but before the motif of the saint with the ragon became normative. They offer insight into the rich narrative potential of Margaret’s life in a monumental medium seen by wide audiences. Examining these windows not only reveals shared emphases on Margaret’s imitatio Christi, corporeal suffering, and encounters with the dragon and demon, but also shows how distinct site-specific hagiographies of Margaret were tailored to each church’s context. Multi-faceted Margarets contributed to the wider cult of the saint.
