Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the dictators Intrum and Justica, die the world begins to emerge from ecological disaster, war and famine. Edward must face tough times as he begins life as the new Governor of Goscote, after his predecessor dies unexpectedly. He is young and the needs of Goscote’s population are many. When a stranger arrives in town in the middle of the night, Edward is unsure about letting him stay. He soon discovers that the stranger is a talented engineer with plenty of ideas to create a better life for the residents of the small community. To escape the stresses and strains of leadership, Edward would often sneak off from his family and friends to an abandoned high-rise building, to watch the skies with a telescope left behind by Edwards former school teacher. He was fascinated by the bright light emanating from Jupiter and had watched it grow larger over time. Dean, the stranger, now having been accepted by the community, was in trouble. A few months into his stay, a foreign military force, that had taken land left behind from the failed national government, were tracking him and had arrived in Goscote, arresting everyone there for harboring a terrorist. But in the skies over the town, there are signs of change. Change that couldn’t come sooner for Edward and his people. Feel free to try a 20% sample.

Download or read book Geomodernisms written by Laura Doyle and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modernism as a global phenomenon is the focus of the essays gathered in this book. The term geomodernisms indicates their subjects' continuity with and divergence from commonly understood notions of modernism. The contributors consider modernism as it was expressed in the non-Western world; the contradictions at the heart of modernization (in revolutionary and nationalist settings, and with respect to race and nativism); and modernism's imagined geographies, pyschogeographies of distance and desire as viewed by the subaltern, the caste-bound, the racially mixed, the gender-determined.
Download or read book Literature in the First Media Age written by David Trotter and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2013-12-16 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The period between the World Wars was one of the richest and most inventive in the long history of British literature. Interwar literature stood apart by virtue of the sheer intelligence of the enquiries it undertook into the technological mediation of experience. After around 1925, literary works began to examine the sorts of behavior made possible for the first time by virtual interaction. And they began to fill up, too, with the look, sound, smell, taste, and feel of the new synthetic and semi-synthetic materials that were reshaping everyday modern life. New media and new materials gave writers a fresh opportunity to reimagine both how lives might be lived and how literature might be written. Today, such material and immaterial mediations have become even more decisive. Communications technology is an attitude before it is a machine or a set of codes. It is an idea about the prosthetic enhancement of our capacity to communicate. The writers who first woke up to this fact were not postwar, postmodern, or post-anything else: some of the best of them lived and wrote in the British Isles in the period between the World Wars.

Download or read book An Introduction to Literature Criticism and Theory written by Andrew Bennett and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-03-23 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lively, original and highly readable, An Introduction to Literature, Criticism and Theory is the essential guide to literary studies. Starting at ‘The Beginning’ and concluding with ‘The End’, chapters range from the familiar, such as ‘Character’, ‘Narrative’ and ‘The Author’, to the more unusual, such as ‘Secrets’, ‘Pleasure’ and ‘Ghosts’. Now in its sixth edition, Bennett and Royle’s classic textbook successfully illuminates complex ideas by engaging directly with literary works, so that a reading of Jane Eyre opens up ways of thinking about racial difference, for example, while Chaucer, Monty Python and Hilary Mantel are all invoked in a discussion of literature and laughter. The sixth edition has been revised and updated throughout. In addition, four new chapters – ‘Literature’, ‘Loss’, ‘Human’ and ‘Migrant’ – engage with exciting recent developments in literary studies. As well as fully up-to-date further reading sections at the end of each chapter, the book contains a comprehensive bibliography and an invaluable glossary of key literary terms. A breath of fresh air in a field that can often seem dry and dauntingly theoretical, this book will open the reader’s eyes to the exhilarating possibilities of reading and studying literature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Virgin and the Gipsy" is a novella written by the English author D. H. Lawrence. It was written in 1926 but was not published until 1930, after Lawrence's death. The novella tells the story of Yvette Saywell, a sheltered and repressed young woman from a respectable family, and a charismatic and free-spirited gipsy named Carroway. When the gipsy encampment arrives near her family's home, Yvette is drawn to Carroway and begins to question the constraints of her conventional upbringing. The story explores themes of sexuality, desire, and the clash between societal expectations and individual freedom. D. H. Lawrence is known for his explorations of human psychology and the complexities of human relationships. "The Virgin and the Gipsy" is no exception, as it delves into the inner lives and desires of its characters. It is celebrated for its lyrical and sensual prose and its depiction of a young woman's awakening to her own desires and emotions.

Download or read book Metaphor and Meaning in D H Lawrence s Later Novels written by John B. Humma and published by University of Missouri Press. This book was released on 1990 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although D. H. Lawrence's later novels have been the subject of much discussion by critics, few scholars have recognized or dealt with his sense of craft. By examining Lawrence's careful and finely orchestrated strategies with language, especially metaphor, Humma argues that a number of the longer works--from Aaron's Rod on and including the posthumously published The Virgin and the Gipsy--are small masterpieces. Different in kind from Women in Love or The Rainbow, these fictions are very important in their own way. Humma maintains that the early and middle novels work largely through powerful symbols. Those of the last decade, though, develop through an intricate interlacing of metaphor and symbolic detail. Humma devotes a chapter to each to Aaron's Rod, The Ladybird, Kangaroo, St.Mawr, The Plumed Serpent, The Virgin and the Gipsy, Lady Chatterley's Lover and The Escaped Cock. Aaron's Rod, as a transitional work, reveals much about Lawrence's narrative method and its dependence upon combinations of images. The Plumed Serpent, Humma suggests, is Lawrence's most ambitious failure. Other critics have faulted plot, character, and meaning, but Humma sees incoherent metaphors as the basis for those other problems. Because Lawrence's metaphors shape myths essential to central actions and meanings, the reader cannot fully appreciate the strategic function of metaphor in them. When Lawrence's method is successful, as it is in Lady Chatterley's Lover, for example, figures of speech overlap each other, crossing boundaries in a web of "interpenetrating metaphors" that provide both structural integrity and thematic resonance. Paying close attention to the texts, Metaphor and Meaning in D. H. Lawrence's Later Novels shows that Lawrence was far from the indifferent craftsman in his later fiction that he has frequently been considered. In fact, Lawrence was acutely aware that language and meaning are inseparable, that technique, as Mark Schorer said, is discovery. John Humma's fresh perspective upon the art and meaning of Lawrence's later work provides a major revaluation of this last phase in the writer's career.
