Download or read book In Quest of the Hero written by Otto Rank and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 1990-11-21 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Quest of the Hero makes available for a new generation of readers two key works on hero myths: Otto Rank's Myth of the Birth of the Hero and the central section of Lord Raglan's The Hero. Amplifying these is Alan Dundes's fascinating contemporary inquiry, "The Hero Pattern and the Life of Jesus." Examined here are the patterns found in the lore surrounding historical or legendary figures like Gilgamesh, Moses, David, Oedipus, Odysseus, Perseus, Heracles, Aeneas, Romulus, Siegfried, Lohengrin, Arthur, and Buddha. Rank's monograph remains the classic application of Freudian theory to hero myths. In The Hero the noted English ethnologist Raglan singles out the myth-ritualist pattern in James Frazer's many-sided Golden Bough and applies that pattern to hero myths. Dundes, the eminent folklorist at the University of California at Berkeley, applies the theories of Rank, Raglan, and others to the case of Jesus. In his introduction to this selection from Rank, Raglan, and Dundes, Robert Segal, author of the major study of Joseph Campbell, charts the history of theorizing about hero myths and compares the approaches of Rank, Raglan, Dundes, and Campbell.

Download or read book Lewd Dungeon Adventures The Shattered Dildo written by Phoenix Grey and published by Ovid Games LLC. This book was released on with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome to Lewd Dungeon Adventures, an adult role-playing game for couples. The city of Evershade was once the pinnacle of arcane knowledge and magical prowess, a place where the greatest mages gathered to weave spells of immense sexual power. Centuries ago, a cataclysmic event caused by the creation of a powerful artifact, the Ultimate Dildo 9000, led to the city’s downfall. The artifact, a glass dildo that magically reshapes to fit the user’s preferred orifice for ultimate pleasure, was fractured into three pieces during the disaster. The devastation was so great that it caused the city to fall into ruin and become lost to the outside world. In the present day, the ruins of Evershade have become nothing more than a legend whispered among scholars and treasure hunters. Hidden within the Foreverwood Forest, the city waits, its powerful magic dormant but not extinguished. Rumors have emerged of a mad sorceress who has taken up residence within the ruins, seeking to harness the power of the Ultimate Dildo 9000 and twist it for nefarious purposes. The Hero is approached by a cloaked figure who reveals themselves to be a scholar of sexual arcane history. They have spent their life researching Evershade and have finally discovered its location. However, they need a Cummancer to navigate the forest, overcome the city’s defenses, and retrieve the pieces of the Ultimate Dildo 9000 before it falls into the mad sorceress’ hands. This module features two different areas, so it can be split into two sessions, contains a drinking game, a cocktail recipe, and 5 Special Scenarios. This adventure requires the following props: • Tokens (this could be pocket change, poker chips, or any identical game pieces) • A cock ring, if the Hero is male, or a nipple erector set, if the Hero is female. • A ball gag • A blindfold • Something to bind the hands • A glass dildo

Download or read book Narratology written by Genevieve Liveley and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-03-28 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores the extraordinary contribution that classical poetics has made to twentieth and twenty-first century theories of narrative, aiming not to argue that modern narratologies simply present 'old wine in new wineskins', but rather to identify the diachronic affinities shared between ancient and modern stories about storytelling. By recognizing that modern narratologists bring a particular expertise to bear upon ancient literary theory, and by interrogating ancient and modern narratologies through the mutually imbricating dynamics of their reception, it seeks to arrive at a better understanding of both. Each chapter selects a key moment in the history of narratology on which to focus, providing an overview of significant phases before offering detailed analyses of core theories and texts, from the Russian formalists and Chicago school neo-Aristotelians, through the prestructuralists, structuralists, and poststructuralists, up to the latest unnatural and antimimetic narratologists. The reception history that thus unfolds offers some remarkable plot twists and yields valuable insights into the interpretation of some notoriously difficult ancient works. Plato in the Republic is unmasked as an unreliable narrator and theorist, while Aristotle's On Poets reveals a rare glimpse of the philosopher putting narrative theory into practice in the role of storyteller. Horace's Ars Poetica and the works of ancient scholia by critics and commentators evince a rhetorically conceived poetics and sophisticated reader-response-based narratology which indicate a keen interest in audience affect and cognition - anticipating the cognitive turn in narratology's most recent postclassical phase.
