Book excerpt: Miss Tamsin Tisdale believes herself to be completely unsuitable for London life. After a myriad of social mishaps, and the potential ruination of her family name, she's shipped away to her cousin's northern estate. Only after she accepts the type of existence Society dictates she must follow will she be welcomed home. Marcus Winston, the Duke of Grayson, has a lackluster reputation. The last in a dying line, he's endured a protected life-rank with privilege, but encumbered by isolation. After a brief encounter with rebellion, he learns the devastating consequences of his carelessness and willingly accepts living life from inside his gilded cage. However, a chance meeting with the brazen Miss Tisdale gives Marc the opportunity to reinvent himself into the man he's always dreamed of being. But when his deception comes to light, and ghosts from both their pasts threaten to unravel the intimacy they've come to cherish, will either of them set their fears aside long enough to embrace love? Or will Miss Tisdale's stubbornness divide them?

Download or read book To Gender or Not to Gender written by Margaret J. Oakes and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2024-06-13 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can Othello be a woman? Can Ophelia be a man? Why not? Intended for Shakespeare lovers, scholars, and Shakespearean theater professionals, this study explores ways in which gender is being reinterpreted by British and North American productions since the turn of the millennium. First discussing gender theory, including modern, individualistic identity, this book leads to deep shifts in thinking about sex, gender identity and expression, and sexuality seen in 21st century Shakespearean production casting, directing, and acting decisions. The inclusion of selected productions and characters such as Othello, Richard III, Ophelia, and Olivia encourage readers to make use of "category creation" to reinterpret these characters by rethinking gender. Covered productions are divided into three sections including those that "cross-sex" cast, those that "resex" a character, and those that leave open questions of gender considering how terms like "gender-blending," "gender-bending," or "gender-blind" are meaningful in 21st century Shakespeare.

Who, or what, is the black king, and why is the writer of the message frightened for their life? Who are the children in the photograph? What is the link between the hidden items and a chess game? And most puzzling of all, how is it possible that the abandoned hundred-year-old doll is familiar to members of Bella’s family? Using forgotten photographs, memories, and the game of chess, Bella and her friend Tamsin learn the secrets of the doll in the wall.

Download or read book Taming Intuition written by Kevin Arceneaux and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-08-11 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The success of democratic governance hinges on an electorate's ability to reward elected officials who act faithfully and punish those who do not. Yet there is considerable variation among voters in their ability to objectively evaluate representatives' performance. In this book the authors develop a theoretical model, the Intuitionist Model of Political Reasoning, which posits that this variation across voters is the result of individual differences in the predisposition to reflect on and to override partisan impulses. Individuals differ in partisan intuitions resulting from the strength of their attachments to parties, as well as the degree to which they are willing to engage in the cognitively taxing process of evaluating those intuitions. The balance of these forces - the strength of intuitions and the willingness to second guess one's self - determines the extent to which individuals update their assessments of political parties and elected officials in a rational manner.
