This book was released on 2006 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theories of intertextuality suggest that meaning in a text can only ever be understood in relation to other texts; no work stands alone but is interlinked with the tradition that came before it and the context in which it is produced. This idea of intertextuality is crucial to understanding literary studies today. Graham Allen deftly introduces the topic and relates its significance to key theories and movements in the study of literature. The second edition of this important guide to intertextuality: Outlines the history and contemporary use of the term Incorporates a wealth of illuminating examples from literature and culture Includes a new, expanded conclusion on the future of intertextuality Examines the politics and aesthetics of the term Relates intertextuality to global cultures and new media. Looking at intertextuality in relation to structuralism, post-structuralism, deconstruction, postcolonialism, Marxism, feminism and psychoanalytic theory, this is a fascinating and useful guide for all students of literature and culture.

Book The Temple Church in London

Download or read book The Temple Church in London written by Robin Griffith-Jones and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2010 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Founded as the main church of the Knights Templar in England, at their New Temple in London, the Temple Church is historically and architecturally one of the most important medieval buildings in England. Its round nave, modelled on the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, is extraordinarily ambitious, combining lavish Romanesque sculpture with some of the earliest Gothic architectural features in any English building of its period. It holds one of the most famous series of medieval effigies in the country. The luminous thirteenth-century choir, intended for the burial of Henry III, is of exceptional beauty. Major developments in the post-medieval period include the reordering of the church in the 1680s by Sir Christopher Wren, and a substantial restoration programme in the early 1840s. Despite its extraordinary importance, however, it has until now attracted little scholarly or critical attention, a gap which is remedied by this volume. It considers the New Temple as a whole in the middle ages, and all aspects of the church itself from its foundation in the twelfth century to its war-time damage in the twentieth. Richly illustrated with numerous black and white and colour plates, it makes full use of the exceptional range and quality of the antiquarian material available for study, including drawings, photographs, and plaster casts. Contributors: Robin Griffith-Jones, Virginia Jansen, Philip Lankester, Helen Nicholson, David Park, Rosemary Sweet, William Whyte, Christopher Wilson.

Having taken his rightful place as Lord Rahl, ruler of D’Hara, Richard must once again postpone his wedding to Kahlan Amnell in order to face the fearsome Imperial Order in a fight for the New World and the freedom of humankind. But while Richard has the brave people of D’Hara at his command, Emperor Jagang of the Imperial Order has a significant advantage: he doesn’t fight fair.

  • Release : 2008
  • ISBN : 1588393054

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This delightful book describes and illustrates the Metropolitan Museum's collection of nearly 40 illuminations from Italian choral manuscripts. Representing the work of Gothic and Renaissance masters both celebrated and anonymous, these precious paintings in miniature---with their compelling narrative, brilliant color, and shining gold---bear witness to exceptional aesthetic accomplishment. The choir books they illuminate are a rich source of information about the development of chant, whose unexpected transcendent tonalities have abiding appeal today. They also serve as primary sources for the study of the lives of religious communities and of the philosophy and faith that infused medieval Europe, offering a glimpse of Italy at the dawn of the Renaissance.

Book The Lost 116 Pages  Reconstructing the Book of Mormon s Missing Stories

Download or read book The Lost 116 Pages Reconstructing the Book of Mormon s Missing Stories written by Don Bradley and published by Greg Kofford Books, Incorporated. This book was released on 2019-11-21 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On a summer day in 1828, Book of Mormon scribe and witness Martin Harris was emptying drawers, upending furniture, and ripping apart mattresses as he desperately looked for a stack of papers he had sworn to God to protect. Those pages containing the only copy of the first three months of the Joseph Smith's translation of the golden plates were forever lost, and the detailed stories they held forgotten over the ensuing years--until now. In this highly anticipated work, author Don Bradley presents over a decade of historical and scriptural research to not only tell the story of the lost pages but to reconstruct many of the detailed stories written on them. Questions explored and answered include: Was the lost manuscript actually 116 pages? How did Mormon's abridgment of this period differ from the accounts in Nephi's small plates? Where did the brass plates and Laban's sword come from? How did Lehi's family and their descendants live the Law of Moses without the temple and Aaronic priesthood? How did the Liahona operate? Why is Joseph of Egypt emphasized so much in the Book of Mormon? How were the first Nephites similar to the very last? What message did God write on the temple wall for Aminadi to translate? How did the Jaredite interpreters come into the hands of the Nephite kings? Why was King Benjamin so beloved by his people? Despite the likely demise of those pages to the sands of time, the answers to these questions and many more are now available for the first time in nearly two centuries in The Lost 116 Pages: Reconstructing the Book of Mormon's Missing Stories.

  • Author : Jean Johnson
  • Publisher : Penguin
  • Release : 2018-02-20
  • ISBN : 1101592001
  • Pages : 320 pages

Download or read book The Temple written by Jean Johnson and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2018-02-20 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Synod gathers, tell them lies: Efforts garnered in your pride Lost beneath the granite face. Painted Lord, stand by her side; Repentance is the Temple's grace. The Guardian of the Fountain of Mendhi is dying, and her successor must step up to the task. Disciplinarian Pelai is ready to accept the burden of managing the powerful magics, but the timing is inconvenient. She has one last Disciplining to perform: assigning the punishment of the three Puhon brothers--men whose lives are entwined with a prophecy of a cataclysmic demonic invasion. Six months of travel have given Puhon Krais time to reflect on, regret, and repent his many mistakes. But the worst lies just ahead: defying the leadership of Mendhi means suffering harsh punishments at the hands of the Disciplinarians once he comes home. Commanded by his Goddess, the proud Painted Warrior must find the strength to submit to his destiny...or find himself, and his whole world, on the wrong side of history. For in the end, one brother is destined to save humanity, one will betray humanity, and one will walk away from his humanity.

Book The Temple Masters of Egypt

Download or read book The Temple Masters of Egypt written by Asher Benowitz and published by DTTV PUBLICATIONS. This book was released on 2022-04-27 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many Egyptologists believe that most religious ceremonies and magical rituals preserved in Temple and tomb reliefs were observed initially in dramatic form to convey a transcendental ambiance to the teaching. Edfu's sacred drama inscribed on the inner west wall of the temple precinct was not the least revered of its literary traditions. It tells how the Neter confronts Set in eleven reliefs after attaining the majority and claiming Asar's throne, each featuring a theatrical scene and dialogue. Dramatis personae in The Mystery Play appear to have been members of the Royal House; the audience included nomarchs and the general populace, and the priests served as both theatrical directors and commentators. In Edfu, the play was performed annually on the 21st of Menhir, the second month of winter, and four days afterward, the Festival of Victory. This fell just before the spring equinox in 110 B.C.E. (when the walls at Edfu were engraved).

  • ISBN : 1568983875
  • Pages : 180 pages

Download or read book Design for Impact written by Eric Ericson and published by Princeton Architectural Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Impact is a loving, if occasionally wry, look at the safety cards that air travelers inevitably encounter and stuff away behind their in-flight magazines. It entwines graphic and aviation history, and it traces these icons of universal design from the kitschy - for Pan-Am's Flying Clipper in the 1930s - to the sanitized pictograms used on today's jumbo jets. Taken from their seatbacks and gathered together here, the cards of Design for Impact offer a humorous look at a basic - and urgent - form of visual communication."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
