Download or read book Beyond the Inferno Collection Inferno written by Alex L. Moretti and published by . This book was released on 2021-06-05 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It's gripping and horrifying in equal measure!" ***** review "It's a mad adventure!" ***** review "It's a must-read if you're studying Dante." ***** review The Divine Comedy has been brought back to life using elegant and eloquent language to appeal to a contemporary audience thirsty for the story but uncomfortable with the archaic style and cadence of classical terza rima. The new Beyond The Inferno Collection, a series of three novellas, explores Dante's epic trilogy in a format which allows the modern reader - and students of Dante - to immerse themselves in the plucky poet's adventures as he stumbles down a dark and dangerous rabbit hole to undertake a perilous quest. It's the anniversary of the crucifixion. Thrust into the bedlam and chaos that is The Dark Wood, humble hero Dante is distraught for he suspects this bleak, black forest is a portal to the Underworld; a terrifying, apocalyptic realm wherein echo the chilling screams of eternal suffering, where all are dead when he is alive, a place which, he fears, does not lead to salvation. He is presented with a gift from Heaven, the Roman poet Virgil, sent to guide him through the three realms of the afterlife where no living soul has ever journeyed for, unbeknown to him, he is on a quest to save mankind from spiritual destruction. The promise of a reunion with his dead lover, Beatrice, motivates him to triumph yet, as a seed of Adam, Dante is open to temptation and failure. First, he must descend through the terrifying Inferno, an apocalyptic, inhumane prison of misery and woe to witness the punishment of sin in its most brutal and nefarious forms. This dark realm of the phantasmagorical hosts demons and dragons, behemoths and giants, serpents and she-wolves. Residing for eternity in the infernal city of despair are sinners; corrupt, deviant malefactors all guarded and tormented by sadistic ferrymen, soul snatchers, goddesses of vengeance and the cursed crew of the Damned. He observes barbaric and violent torture including flagellation by fire where the dead burn alive, scalding in rivers of boiling blood, roasting and melting in blazing tombs, drowning in bubbling pits of tar. In an apocalyptic climax, a despairing and forsaken Dante arrives at Hell's pit to endure one last act, to witness one final torturous scene. In the darkness of foreboding, the banners of Hell's monarch draw closer. But will the plucky poet survive such a perilous encounter to march on and complete his unavoidable journey? The fires of ancient love still burn. And one last kiss with his dead lover is reward enough should he triumph. "This adaptation could well become the book that everyone has been searching for, narrating the fantastic story in a modern yet erudite way."

For the Love of Mom pays homage to the special women who rocked us, raised us, championed us, challenged us, and—at times—exasperated us. Whether a woman becomes a mom by giving birth, or through the blessings of adoption or step-parenting, she will be moved, inspired, and entertained by these true stories that share both the monumental milestones and everyday moments of motherhood. Some stories are humorous, some heartfelt; others will help moms through the trying times, yet all underscore the devotion and dedication we admire most about mothers.

Book Cabin Boys  Milkmaids  and Rough Seas

Download or read book Cabin Boys Milkmaids and Rough Seas written by Jessica M. Floyd and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2024-08-30 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During his correspondence with erotic folklore collector Gershon Legman, famed chantey singer and collector Stan Hugill (1906–1992) shared unexpurgated versions of the songs in his repertoire. These bawdy songs were meant to be a part of Legman’s larger project concerning erotic folksong. Upon Legman’s death in 1999, the unfinished and unpublished manuscript sank into obscurity and was believed by many to be permanently lost. Thankfully this “holy grail” of chantey texts had been safe in the private collection of Legman’s widow, Judith Legman, all along. Cabin Boys, Milkmaids, and Rough Seas: Identity in the Unexpurgated Repertoire of Stan Hugill is the first critical investigation of this repository, reproduced here for the first time. Training an interdisciplinary lens on twenty-four unexpurgated texts, author Jessica M. Floyd interrogates the articulation of gender, sexuality, and identity as it is expressed in these cultural artifacts of the sea. Opening with both a critical explication of the chantey genre, as well as situating Hugill’s repertoire in the canon of folksong, the book introduces readers to the critical realities that attend this rich cultural tradition. Analytical chapters demonstrate the kaleidoscopic representation of gender and sexuality in this finite repertoire. Each inquiry is connected and overlapping, demonstrating an ebb and flow not unlike the waters on which the songs were sung. Words of warning, heteronormative economies, and queer undercurrents each collide to present an image of sailing life that is nuanced and complicated, provocative and evocative, transgressive and sometimes radical. The volume allows scholars to place a finger on the pulse of maritime life, feeling and experiencing one voice among the din of working-class song traditions.

Book Beyond the Inferno Collection   Paradise

Download or read book Beyond the Inferno Collection Paradise written by Alex L. Moretti and published by . This book was released on 2021-06-05 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It's a page turner and surprisingly moving." ***** review "It's a mad adventure!" ***** review "It's a must-read if you're studying Dante." ***** review The Divine Comedy has been brought back to life using elegant and eloquent language to appeal to a contemporary audience thirsty for the story but uncomfortable with the archaic style and cadence of classical terza rima. The new Beyond The Inferno Collection, a series of three novellas, explores Dante's epic trilogy in a format which allows the modern reader - and students of Dante - to immerse themselves in the plucky poet's adventures as he stumbles down a dark and dangerous rabbit hole to undertake a perilous quest. Having witnessed the vile and barbaric punishment of sin in the torturous, apocalyptic Inferno, Dante has now successfully navigated the terraces of the magnificent Mountain of Purgatory and observed the purgation of sin through penance; through suffering. He understands that man must renounce sin, also that atonement and repentance brings spiritual purification and redemption, which naturally leads to salvation and the ascension to Paradise. But he's not quite there yet. Abandoned by his guide and mentor Virgil for, as a pagan, he lacks the theological virtues of faith, hope and love that will carry him upwards through the celestial spheres, our hero is reunited with his dead sweetheart, Beatrice, who arrives in the magnificent Pageant of the Sacrament to champion her lover to rise to Heaven. Embodying all that is purity and grace, Beatrice encourages Dante to examine God's greatest gift to mankind, that of free will, and consider how its exertion may influence a blessed soul's placement in Heaven. Ascension through the perfect glory of the nine stars of Paradise introduces Dante to the Apostles, the Evangelists, the Eagle of Justice, Adam and Eve and Jesus Christ. Humbled by a prayer of intercession from the Virgin Mary, Dante is spiritually prepared for his auspicious encounter with the Divine. His spiritual quest nearly over, Dante's task now is to use poetic prose to alert mankind to his spiritual failings and lead him out of the darkness back into the light but, restricted to the lexicon of mortal man, this enormous challenge weighs heavy. Dante must communicate the triumph and might of the Divine, the celestial beauty of Heaven, the glory and magnificence of the Mountain of Purgatory and the cruelty and barbarity of the savage Inferno. More than ever, earthly man needs reminding that to renounce sin, to repent, atone and attain redemption, to return to the path of Truth is to save himself. For, in death, all seek eternal life in the perfection and bliss that is Paradise. "This adaptation could well become the book that everyone has been searching for, narrating the fantastic story in a modern yet erudite way."
