Download or read book Practical Web Development with Haskell written by Ecky Putrady and published by Apress. This book was released on 2018-11-12 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn how to advance your skill level of Haskell, and use this language for practical web development. This book uses a direct, no nonsense approach, so you no longer need to spend extra time reading the documentation, blog posts, and forums to understand how to use Haskell – all that knowledge is provided in one coherent resource. You'll start by reviewing how multiple facets of web development are done in Haskell, such as routing, building HTMLs, interacting with databases, caches, and queues, etc. You'll then move on to using notable libraries, such as "scotty" for routings, "digestive-functor" for input validation, and "postgresql-simple" for interacting with databases. In the later chapters, you'll learn how all of these libraries can be used together by working on a fully functioning project deployed on Heroku. What You'll Learn Set up a productive Haskell development environment Review basic tasks that are encountered when building web applications. Explore how to interact with external systems, such as databases, queues, and RESTful APIs. Build a RESTful API, website, building views and form validation. Who This Book Is For Software developers familiar Haskell and would like to apply the knowledge on real world applications and software developers new to Haskell.
Download or read book Jason and Medea written by Matthew L. Hunter and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2005 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While the ending of the Golden Fleece myth, Medea's killing of her beloved children, is well known, her story and her reasoning are not. She can be understood through her deeds and words, though she may not be forgiven for her act. Jason, the hero of the Argo who wrested the Golden Fleece from a tyrant at the end of world, in this work is revealed as a man with flaws. Jason and Medea fully explores the ancient Greek tragedy, following the story line and philosophical trails. The gaps in the ancient telling are filled with imaginative invention without the aid of supernatural forces. Every baby boomer has seen the 60's movie Jason and the Argonauts with the animated harpies, skeleton warriors and bronze giant. Few know the details of the complete adventure. The telling of this tale relies upon the visualization prowess of the modern reader to examine the human condition. This tale has something more than mere adventure to hold the reader's attention. Great events propel the action. Men commit murder, steal, embark on paths of war, and whisper deceits. A woman acts both selflessly for love and sacrifices everything for it. Through language and dialogue, violence is revealed as monstrous and that love may be too. The voices of women articulate great sentiments and truths. Memory and loyalty are exposed as weak foundations for trust. At the beginning and then finally, the gods, the Fates and human responsibility all take center stage in Jason and Medea.

Download or read book Valerius Flaccus Argonautica Book 1 written by Andrew Zissos and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2008-07-17 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A text (with apparatus criticus), translation, and commentary, with introduction, of the first book of Valerius Flaccus' Argonautica, an unfinished Roman epic extending to eight books and several thousand lines, written in the Flavian period (69-96 CE). The commentary addresses both textual and semantic matters and broader questions of stylistics, poetics, thematics, and cultural context. Particularly close attention is paid to Valerius' choice of diction, his sophisticated use of figures and tropes, his often sly erudition, the recurring and strategic resort to subtle intertextual gestures, and, where appropriate, the reception of his work in later authors. The substantial introduction provides an overview of the poet and his poem.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It discusses, inter alia, the limited evidence for Valerius' life; the main features of his often difficult poetic language; the handling of the Argonautic myth in literature prior to Valerius; his innovative treatment of the inherited material; and his self-positioning within the broader literary tradition, particularly his sophisticated adaptation of formal and thematic elements from his two principal poetic models, Apollonius Rhodius' Argonautica and Virgil's Aeneid. While the commentary is written for readers with some competence in Latin, the introduction, and the facing English translation, are thoroughly accessible to non-Latinate readers with an interest in Roman literature and in the ancient epic tradition."--BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book The Meanings of Magic written by Amy Wygant and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2006 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The notion of "magic" is a current popular culture phenomenon. Harry Potter, the Lord of the Rings, the commercial glamour of the footballer and the pop idol surround us with their charisma, enchantment, and charm. But magic also exerts a terrifying political hold upon us: bin Laden's alleged March 28 e-mail message spoke of the attacks on America in form of "crushing its towers, disgracing its arrogance, undoing its magic." The nine scholars included in this volume consider the cultural power of magic, from early Christianity and the ancient Mediterranean to the curious film career of Buffalo Bill, focusing on topics such as Surrealism, France in the classical age, alchemy, and American fundamentalism, ranging from popular to elite magic, from theory to practice, from demonology to exoticism, from the magic of memory to the magic of the stage. As these essays show, magic defines the limit of both science and religion but as such remains indefinable.

Book excerpt: Streams of time intertwine, as lovers collide and civilisations fall. Three worlds, three times, three agonies, all held together by the desperate conciousness of one man. A relationship collapses under the weight of a tragedy beyond comprehension; a man is framed for murder and runs from the law into worlds unimaginable; a forgotten soul, trapped in a frozen existence, begins to thaw. And bubbling below the surface - quietly, slowly, unobserved - Euphoria wakes from her slumber; hungry to unleash a deluge of evil which threatens the flood all worlds.

Download or read book Valerius Flaccus Argonautica written by Debra Hershkowitz and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Valerius Flaccus' unfinished and unjustly neglected epic recounting the Argonauts' quest for the Golden Fleece and the early stages of the doomed love affair of Jason and Medea has been relegated to the outer fringes of classical scholarship for many years. A full-length study devoted to the Argonautica has not been published in English for over 100 years. This book seeks to address this balance. Dr. Hershkowitz aims to provide readers who have not yet encountered Valerius Flaccus' work with a general introduction to this multi-faceted epic poem. At the same time the author offers those already familiar with the Argonautica an in-depth re-evaluation of the work, contextualizing it within both an historical and literary framework, focusing in particular on its intertextual relationship with Apollonius' Argonautica and Vergil's Aeneid.
