Book excerpt: In the final book in this gripping, romantic fantasy trilogy perfect for fans of Robin McKinley, Kristin Cashore, and Shannon Hale, the band of rebels reach their climactic confrontation with the king. Just one year ago, Neryn had nothing but a canny skill she barely understood and a faint dream that the legendary rebel base of Shadowfell might be real. Now she is the rebels’ secret weapon, and their greatest hope for survival in the fast-approaching ambush of King Keldec at Summerfort. The fate of Alban itself is in her hands. But confidence is stretching thinner by the day when word of another Caller reaches the rebels: a Caller at Keldec’s side with all of Neryn’s power and none of her benevolence or hard-earned control. As the days before the battle drop quickly away, Neryn must find a way to uncover—and exploit—her opponent’s weaknesses. At stake lies freedom for the people of Alban, a life free from hiding for the Good Folk—and a chance for Flint and Neryn to finally be together.

Download or read book The Sword and the Pen written by Konrad Eisenbichler and published by University of Notre Dame Pess. This book was released on 2012-11-15 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Sword and the Pen: Women, Politics, and Poetry in Sixteenth-Century Siena, Konrad Eisenbichler analyzes the work of Sienese women poets, in particular, Aurelia Petrucci, Laudomia Forteguerri, and Virginia Salvi, during the first half of the sixteenth century up to the fall of Siena in 1555. Eisenbichler sets forth a complex and original interpretation of the experiences of these three educated noblewomen and their contributions to contemporary culture in Siena by looking at the emergence of a new lyric tradition and the sonnets they exchanged among themselves and with their male contemporaries. Through the analysis of their poems and various book dedications to them, Eisenbichler reveals the intersection of poetry, politics, and sexuality, as well as the gendered dialogue that characterized Siena's literary environment during the late Renaissance. Eisenbichler also examines other little-known women poets and their relationship to the cultural environment of Siena, underlining the exceptional role of the city of Siena as the most important center of women's writing in the first half of the sixteenth century in Italy, and probably in all of Europe. This innovative contribution to the field of late Renaissance and early modern Italian and women's studies rescues from near oblivion a group of literate women who were celebrated by contemporary scholars but who have been largely ignored today, both because of a dearth of biographical information about them and because of a narrow evaluation of their poetry. Eisenbichler's analysis and reproduction of many of their poems in Italian and modern English translation are an invaluable contribution not only to Italian cultural studies but also to women's studies.

Download or read book The Partisans written by J.G. Ensley and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-04 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Partisans is a story set on the stage of a world that never was, but has been and is. It is about a generation of young people born without hope on a planet doomed to consume itself in the fires of its own dynamic hatreds. Taanach of Dhayne is a man of war and a dreamer of peace a wonderful abnormality in a world gone mad with violence perpetuated by generations of murderous ancestors. When fate aligns his path with that of a sworn enemy of his people, he begins to believe his world can change. Her name is Michal, and it is largely through her that the young within their respective nations learn to question the hateful regimes of their hard-hearted fathers. After an arduous journey to an unknown land, the adventurers are profoundly changed when they discover the remnants of a legendary people the fabled Elders of Dolan. Driven then by a powerful, unifying purpose, the Partisans return to their own lands to initiate a campaign of destruction against the most powerful armies of their time. But they are only a few against the well-organized power of many thousands, an obstacle that seems impossible to overcome. The rebellion is naturally met with virulent resistance from the deeply entrenched powers that be, and thus the stage is set for conflict on an unprecedented scale. In the end, the demise of the ancient cancer of hate must come about from within the nations themselves, as the element of goodness they hold dormant rises up against the roots of their own despicable past.
