Book excerpt: Neither Here nor There: The Many Voices of Liminality draws together the expertise, experience, and insights of a coterie of authors, all of whom relate the core concepts of liminality to their unique contexts. The experience of and inquiry into liminal phenomena have developed into a distinct discipline of study which now crosses and informs many areas of thought, including anthropology, sociology, theology, psychology, literature and education.

Download or read book Neither Here Nor There written by Christopher Bolander and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2009-10 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the beginning, Montréal has played a significant role in French writing of North America. While it is relatively easy to find novels to support the idea of Montréal as the center of the French Canadian universe, a more interesting challenge has been to examine the ways in which writers avoid the city, sometimes even effacing a character's, and perhaps their own, montréalité in the process. In this book I examine the various roles of Montréal - agent, setting, allegory, theme, character, trope - in a wide range of novels and short stories. I reveal how Montréal's topography serves to offset the notion of a uniform citizenry while simultaneously reinforcing class differences. I also reject the traditional rural/urban rivalry by examining texts that draw attention to a failed, romanticized view of rurality, yet highlight the fact that Montréal's urban egocentrism can be considered no less an idealized view of society. Perhaps the most valuable inquiry into the literature of Montréal found in the book is the subversion of the monolithic and homogeneous image of the city by detailing individual particularities which reflect the diversity of Montréal's various neighborhoods.

Rather than leave her alone in a strange place at night, he takes her home to Kilcoy Castle. The last “normal” thing Thea Ross remembers is checking whether the fallen man was hurt. Now she’s in eighteenth-century Scotland, talking with a Stuart related to Bonnie Prince Charlie. Is her mission to prevent the Culloden massacre? She’s a pacifist, but Ian is a staunch Jacobite, ready to die for freedom. What will be more important to him...love of country or love for Thea?
