And she is shocked when her father takes one of those Redcoats–a wounded English soldier–into their home on the shores of Loch Ness. But soon Prudence begins to suspect this Englishman is more than he seems–she fears he is a spy, even as she begins to surrender her heart.

Book excerpt: "Inspired by Beauty and the Beast. When Maren runs away from the threat of a forced marriage, the last place she expects to end up is the Malvagarian Palace, home to the enchanted gardens, a cursed prince, and a magical rose that traps her there. Crown Prince Briar isn't pleased to be stuck with a troublesome guest, especially one as mischievous and curious as Maren. She, on the other hand, is determined to escape, but instead finds herself inconveniently falling in love with him. Despite her lack of beauty, feelings steadily blossom between her and the prince. Their budding romance is soon threatened when sinister magic begins to eclipse the enchanted gardens, a darkness which quickly spreads not only to the kingdom, but to the king himself. In order to stop it, Briar and Maren will both be forced to make a heart-wrenching sacrifice, only to realize that the gardens’ requirements may prove too high a price."--Back cover.

Book excerpt: The Lord of the Rings trilogy has delighted millions of fans worldwide in book and movie form. With the theatrical release of the two-part film The Hobbit slated for 2012 and 2013, attention will once again turn to J. R. R. Tolkien's classic works. In a culture where truth is relative and morality is viewed as old-fashioned, we welcome the chance to view the world through hobbit eyes: we have free will, our choices matter, and living a morally heroic life is possible. In this engaging and thought-provoking book, Tolkien expert Matthew Dickerson shows how a Christian worldview and Christian themes undergird Tolkien's Middle-earth writings and how they are fundamentally important to understanding his vision. This revised and expanded edition of Following Gandalf includes new material on torture, social justice, and the importance of the body.

Book excerpt: #1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER “I love Katherine May’s new book, Enchantment.…It’s a beautiful offering of light, truth and charm in these strange, dark times.” – New York Times bestselling author Anne Lamott “Katherine May gave so many of us language and vision for the long communal ‘wintering’ of the last years. Welcome this beautiful meditation for the time we've now entered. I cannot imagine a more gracious companion. This book is a gift.” – New York Times bestselling author Krista Tippett “Gentle inspiration for those who feel exhausted or helpless… May shows how paying deliberate attention to what’s around us can surprise us with insights and reveal new connections that deepen our appreciation for the world.” – Washington Post From the New York Times–bestselling author of Wintering, an invitation to rediscover the feelings of awe and wonder available to us all Many of us feel trapped in a grind of constant change: rolling news cycles, the chatter of social media, our families split along partisan lines. We feel fearful and tired, on edge in our bodies, not quite knowing what has us perpetually depleted. For Katherine May, this low hum of fatigue and anxiety made her wonder what she was missing. Could there be a different way to relate to the world, one that would allow her to feel more rested and at ease, even as seismic changes unfold on the planet? Might there be a way for all of us to move through life with curiosity and tenderness, sensitized to the subtle magic all around? In Enchantment, May invites the reader to come with her on a journey to reawaken our innate sense of wonder and awe. With humor, candor, and warmth, she shares stories of her own struggles with work, family, and the aftereffects of pandemic, particularly feelings of overwhelm as the world rushes to reopen. Craving a different way to live, May begins to explore the restorative properties of the natural world, moving through the elements of earth, water, fire, and air and identifying the quiet traces of magic that can be found only when we look for them. Through deliberate attention and ritual, she unearths the potency and nourishment that come from quiet reconnection with our immediate environment. Blending lyricism and storytelling, sensitivity and empathy, Enchantment invites each of us to open the door to human experience in all its sensual complexity, and to find the beauty waiting for us there.
Download or read book Nazi Cinema as Enchantment written by Mary-Elizabeth O'Brien and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2006 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Nazi regime did not merely terrorize its citizens into submission; it also seduced them by offering stability, a traditional value system, a sense of belonging, and hope of a better standard of living. Nazi cinema's popularity rested on its ability to express positive social fantasies and promote the enchantment of reality, so that one would want to share in the dream at any price. This is an interdisciplinary study, written for scholars and students in the fields of film studies, German studies, history, critical studies, and political science, that explores how cinema participated in the larger framework of everyday fascism. The book examines how five film genres - the historical musical, the foreign adventure film, the home-front film, the melodrama, and the problem film - enchanted audiences and enacted shared stories that can tell us much about how family, community, history, the nation, and the war were imagined in Nazi Germany. The book analyzes thirteen motion pictures, many of which are not well known to English-speaking audiences: Wunschkonzert, Die große Liebe, Tanz auf dem Vulkan, Damals, Die Degenhardts, Opfergang, Kautschuk, Robert und Bertram, Verklungene Melodie, Frauen für Golden Hill, Das Leben kann so schön sein, Der verzauberte Tag, and Via Mala. Based on exhaustive research in German archives, the book examines, in addition to the films themselves, articles from the propaganda ministry's official organ, Der deutsche Film, daily trade sheets, fan magazines, and even studio press packages for individual stars and films. Mary-Elizabeth O'Brien is Professor of German at Skidmore College, Saratoga Springs, New York.

"A Mouse's Magical Journey" shows us that life's real magic isn't in the special places we go, but in the guts, friends, and self-confidence we gain along the way. Milo's story is a great way to remind us to accept our own paths, enjoy the beauty of nature, and work hard to reach our goals. How the story started: Milo, a curious mouse who liked to try new things, used to live in a quiet little hole under a big oak tree. Milo's mind was always racing with ideas and his heart was full of dreams. Milo's small house under the big oak tree had always been a warm and safe place for him, but his spirit of adventure made him want more. Outside the safe walls of his burrow, he dreamed of wide landscapes, strange animals, and exciting experiences. The outside world drew him in with its undiscovered places and wonders. Every day, he would look at the horizon and think about the sights and sounds he would soon see and hear. His longing grew greater with every passing second. Milo would often spend hours up in the tree listening to the wise old owl tell stories. The owl told the mouse stories about faraway places, strange creatures, and exciting adventures. Milo's heart was set on fire by these stories, which gave him a burning desire to learn and find out more. He dreamed of going on adventures through beautiful forests, up high mountains, and across huge seas. His mind would come up with amazing stories about animals that could talk, fairies, and finding secret treasures deep inside old ruins. His heart ached with the need to see these things for himself. Milo knew that one day he would die. He thought that fate would give him the chance to go on a wonderful journey. He was really looking forward to that day. He spent his evenings sitting on a windowsill and staring at the stars as if they were the key to his dreams. When he thought about the adventures he could have in the great unknown, his heart would beat faster. The mouse's small home became both a source of comfort and a source of worry. Even though he liked how warm and safe it made him feel, he couldn't help but feel hemmed in. The tight walls were getting in their way, and the hole that used to be his safe place had turned into a prison. He wanted to stretch his hands, get some fresh air, and feel the grass under his feet. Milo's desire to learn about the world got stronger every day, which made him more creative and determined. He spent hours working on his feelings and instincts so that he would be ready for his next trip. He would climb the tree limbs to get better at moving quickly and using his hands. He would look at maps and spend a lot of time following the winding roads that led to new and interesting places. His travels gave him the energy to do everything he did. As the seasons changed, Milo could feel that his big trip was coming up. The air seemed to buzz with a strange kind of energy, and it carried hints of what could happen. It was as if the whole universe had worked together to make his dreams come true and set the stage for his amazing journey. Milo looked forward to the day when he would no longer live in his tiny house and the whole world would be his playground. He knew his chance to go on a big adventure was coming up, and he couldn't wait to spread his tiny wings and fly into the great unknown. Milo woke up from a warm nap on a beautiful morning as the sun's golden rays shone through the oak tree's leaves. As he stretched and rubbed his tired eyes, he couldn't believe what he saw. Just outside his door, a shining golden key was hidden between the velvety petals of a flower that was growing. Milo's heart skipped a beat as he ran for the key, his small paws shivering with joy. He carefully picked it up and felt its weight in his paw. The key sparkled and shone, and the early light made a gold dance on it. Milo's whiskers twitched in wonder as he tried to figure out where this mysterious key came from and what secrets it held. He knew that this wasn't just any old key. It had a feeling of magic and wonder that caught his attention. Milo's mind raced as he thought about all the things he could do once he got through the mysterious gate. Milo thought about where the key came from while his heartbeat in his chest. Who did he get it from? Why is this happening? Was it a gift from a wise old owl or a word from the fairies in the woods? Milo's mind was full of questions, but he knew one thing for sure: he had been chosen for something amazing.
