Book Beneath the Second Sun

Download or read book Beneath the Second Sun written by Adam W. Sweeting and published by UPNE. This book was released on 2003 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indian summer, the succession of warm, fair days gracing New England in autumn, is at once a flourishing period signaling the end of fall, a meteorological event, a vernacular cultural construction, and a literary metaphor. In this appealing and elegant book, Sweeting plumbs Indian summer's use in literature as a symbol of second chance, rebirth, or reprieve before the onset of a harsher season. Well researched and charmingly written, Beneath the Second Sun is the first book to systematically treat the history and uses of Indian summer imagery in American life. The author focuses on the ways in which New Englanders have embraced the season, and he places the celebration of the season's beauty and its melancholy qualities within the context of Anglo-Native American relations. Sweeting does not try to locate the original definition of Indian summer, rather he explores the far more interesting ways in which the season has been imagined and described in American culture. Popular authors including Philip Freneau, Susan Cooper, Lydia Sigourney, John Greenleaf Whittier, Francis Parkman Oliver, Wendell Holmes, and, especially, Henry David Thoreau, Emily Dickinson, and William Dean Howells freely employ Indian summer imagery in their works. In the context of modern American Studies, Sweeting's study is part of a "post-modern" scholarly discussion of how tangible realities such as climate are mediated, even forged, by social needs. Sweeting further investigates the imaginative, early-nineteenth-century "invention" of New England regional identity and integrates traditional American Studies literary and historical concerns with a contemporary interest in the environment and sense of place. Sweeting's graceful, lively, and accessible style beckons not only scholars of American literature and the nineteenth century but any traveler seeking the glories of autumn in New England.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Second Sun is, above all things, an adventure made animate by hundreds of distinct characters across half a world written to confess through prose and tale our tendencies poisoned by Dickensian bleakness or cruelty, and to wholly ameliorate that cynicism by the light and courage of those who live and labor for a just peace. The story begins with a fae boy named Moo on the island of Cero, understood by all who have heard the name to be a paradise where its residents live for thousands of years, sustained by the power of the fruits grown from the branches of the island's elders. A mist inexplicable even to the elders encircles the island and shields the people from hostile forces by taking the life of any who pass not in the company of a fae. However, a small ship is discovered on the island's shores and a young girl named Yuyu is rescued, astonishingly, alive from her place trapped inside a chest and reveals creatures with buzzing wings murdered the crew that kidnapped her. Her testimony compels a scholar of paradise named Kamo to leave her home aided in her investigation by her friend and master engineer Serkis. The second chapter follows the Odinites on the Raven's Word and their deliverance of ten children captured and sold into slavery. Captain Valara Viktor commands her crew make for the island city of Caradras to locate a translator who can negotiate their return home or their enlistment into Odin's Navy to aid in restoring their sovereignty stripped of them by the Polemarx empire before they make the return journey to Valheim, the last fortress of Odin, far north in the Hells Sea. The third chapter begins with a squire named Rade who is at the service of one none older than he but already knighted named Ser Barimon. Ordered by their dead Emperor's remaining council, they depart on a diplomatic mission but are offered the recreation of a man hunt by a lord now local to the region they were to pass through. The lord Juvie Morto, Ser Barimon, Rade, and seven others chase the shadow of an infamous deserter named Still Morrow, who fled with his troops during the battle for Victrious, the capitol of the Wooloe empire. When the pair return to brief the council on Still Morrow's whereabouts, Rade is offered leave by his knight to join a festival. Though his evident proximity to power leaving the council's chambers urged spies within the new capitol of Capra to kidnap the squire. Each chapter following the first three advances the stories born from these adventures.

Book Second Suns  Two Trailblazing Doctors and Their Quest to Cure Blindness  One Pair of Eyes at a Time

Download or read book Second Suns Two Trailblazing Doctors and Their Quest to Cure Blindness One Pair of Eyes at a Time written by David Oliver Relin and published by The Experiment, LLC. This book was released on 2016-09-20 with total page 549 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in paperback: a #1 New York Times–bestselling author’s gripping chronicle of “two doctors . . . bringing light to those in darkness” (Time) Second Suns is the unforgettable true story of two very different doctors with a common mission: to rid the world of preventable blindness. Dr. Geoffrey Tabin was the high-achieving “bad boy” of his class at Harvard Medical School. Dr. Sanduk Ruit grew up in a remote village in the Himalayas, where cataract blindness—easily curable in modern hospitals—amounts to an epidemic. Together, they pioneered a new surgical method, by which they have restored sight to over 100,000 people—all for about $20 per operation. Master storyteller David Oliver Relin brings the doctors’ work to vivid life through poignant portraits of their patients, from old men who can once again walk treacherous mountain trails, to children who can finally see their mothers’ faces. The Himalayan Cataract Project is changing the world—one pair of eyes at a time.

Book excerpt: In Karl Schroeder's sci-fi thriller, Hayden Griffin has come to the city of Rush with one thing in mind: to take murderous revenge for his parents' deaths. It is the distant future. The world known as Virga is a fullerene balloon three thousand kilometers in diameter, filled with air, water, and aimlessly floating chunks of rock. The humans who live in this vast environment must build their own fusion suns and "towns" that are in the shape of enormous wood and rope wheels that are spun for gravity. Young, fit, bitter, and friendless, Hayden Griffin is a very dangerous man. He's come to the city of Rush in the nation of Slipstream with one thing in mind: to take murderous revenge for the deaths of his parents six years ago. His target is Admiral Chaison Fanning, head of the fleet of Slipstream, which conquered Hayden's nation of Aerie years ago. And the fact that Hayden's spent his adolescence living with pirates doesn't bode well for Fanning's chances . . .

Book excerpt: An addictive fantasy romance from TikTok sensation Piper CJ, now newly revised and edited. Two orphans grow into powerful young women as they face countless threats to find their way back to each other. Farleigh is just an orphanage. At least, that's what the church would have the people believe, but beautiful orphans Nox and fae-touched Amaris know better. They are commodities for sale, available for purchase by the highest bidder. So when the madame of a notorious brothel in a far-off city offers a king's ransom to purchase Amaris, Nox ends up taking her place — while Amaris is drawn away to the mountains, home of mysterious assassins. Even as they take up new lives and identities, Nox and Amaris never forget one thing: they will stop at nothing to reunite. But the threat of war looms overhead, and the two are inevitably swept into a conflict between human and fae, magic and mundane. With strange new alliances, untested powers, and a bond that neither time nor distance could possibly break, the fate of the realms lies in the hands of two orphans — and the love they hold for each other.

Book excerpt: Since the Age of Shadows ended, the people of Ranadon have lived under the merciless heat of two suns and the tyranny of Antonov, the Lion of Senet. Consumed by his lust for power and his unshakable belief in the capricious, almighty Goddess, Antonov’s rule is absolute. Only one man has the intelligence and will to break that hold…a man who could be King. Suddenly widowed, Morna Provin, Duchess of Elcast, has lost her only protector. With her son banished for an unspeakable crime, she faces a horrifying fate at the hands of the Lion of Senet as retribution for her relationship with the heretic Johan Thorn. But it is only part of a cunning scheme to lure her son, Dirk Provin, back into the fold so Antonov can consolidate his power once and for all. With his mother’s life at stake, Dirk Provin must emerge from hiding in the Baenlands and return to Elcast—setting in motion a rebellion that will expose long-buried secrets and ignite festering hatreds. For a ruler’s fears and a madman’s prophecy will start Dirk on a quest for truth that will spark a fierce battle between two very different men: one who believes only what his five senses tell him, the other obsessed by his faith in the divine. It is a clash that will bring to light a revelation that may shatter them all.
