Download or read book The Twilight Mystique written by Amy M. Clarke and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-01-10 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 13 essays in this volume explore Stephenie Meyer's wildly popular Twilight series in the contexts of literature, religion, fairy tales, film, and the gothic. Several examine Meyer's emphasis on abstinence, considering how, why, and if the author's Mormon faith has influenced the series' worldview. Others look at fan involvement in the Twilight world, focusing on how the series' avid following has led to an economic transformation in Forks, Washington, the real town where the fictional series is set. Other topics include Meyer's use of Quileute shape-shifting legends, Twilight's literary heritage and its frequent references to classic works of literature, and the series' controversial depictions of femininity.

Download or read book Celia s Room written by Kevin Booth and published by Poble Sec Books. This book was released on 2011-11-15 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An LGBT+ portrait of the Barcelona night in a year of sex, drugs and deception. Told through their own eyes, sensitive Joaquim – whose passion for painting will propel him into the artist’s life – and cynical Eduardo – addicted to a nightlife that thwarts his ambition to write – unveil a conflicted, shadowy city, personified by the enigmatic Celia. Despite their violently contrasting natures, Joaquim and Eduardo both fall under Celia’s aura. The games they are learning to play will draw all three into conflict – against the backdrop of a city that is also rehearsing a new identity – leading them inexorably towards the truth of Celia’s Room. These are the heirs to Jean Genet’s underworld in A Thief’s Journal, a world which Nazario describes brilliantly in El bar Kike y Paca la Tomate and elsewhere. That collection of tawdry gay bars huddled around Plaça Reial in the late 80s and early 90s, long before the Gaixample existed, was perhaps even more vibrant, decadent, drug-fuelled and anarchic than the Madrid movida made famous by directors like Almodóvar – yet no less deservedly famous. “Stunning debut: If you like Kerouac or Isherwood, you will love Celia’s Room.” “Nothing is quite as it seems. This book rejoices in ambiguity and ambivalence, successfully capturing the zeitgeist of Barcelona.”

Download or read book Her Husband was a Woman written by Alison Oram and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-01-11 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tracking the changing representation of female gender-crossing in the press, this text breaks new ground to reveal findings where both desire between women and cross-gender identification are understood. Her Husband was a Woman! exposes real-life case studies from the British tabloids of women who successfully passed as men in everyday life, perhaps marrying other women or fighting for their country. Oram revises assumptions about the history of modern gender and sexual identities, especially lesbianism and transsexuality. This book provides a fascinating resource for researchers and students, grounding the concepts of gender performativity, lesbian and queer identities in a broadly-based survey of the historical evidence.

Download or read book BCN Free Art 01 The Port and Barceloneta written by Kevin Booth and published by Poble Sec Books. This book was released on 2015-06 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: BCN Free Art 01: The Port and Barceloneta guides you around artworks on Barcelona’s waterfront and through the fishing neighbourhood of Barceloneta, describing the city’s history, the artists – such as Xavier Mariscal, Roy Lichtenstein, JM Subirachs, Rebecca Horn, Juan Muñoz and James Turrell – who created these sculptures, and the stories that bring Barcelona alive. This edition of BCN Free Art 01: The Port and Barceloneta has been fully revised. Extra information has been added, while we have replaced some lower-quality photos for better images. We have also made the route more streamlined and easier to follow. So the chapters have been reorganised and every artwork is now linked to its position on Google maps. There are even links to other artworks mentioned that aren't part of the official route! The idea for these guides sprang from hard times, a recession in fact. Whether in boom or recession, art remains fundamental. But while free art is a great idea, not all great art is free. So this guide takes you places where there is no admission fee. The BCN Free Art guides inform without being academic, helping you enjoy Barcelona’s culture as you stroll or cycle around town.

Download or read book Beyond the Night written by Nadine Farghaly and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2015-09-04 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Werewolves, witches, vampires, demons, gods, zombies, and shape-shifters; these are just a few examples of the monstrous that society is confronted with. Most people have some knowledge about these creatures, and have had fleeting contact with ghosts, fairies, vampires and goblins, either in their imagination, or while reading, watching, or interacting with other people (whether in reality or the online world). From Beowulf and Buffy, to Freddy Krueger and Frankenstein’s Monster, this collection highlights different aspects of the monstrous, and discusses various ways in which they can be read, discussed, and understood. What does the mother in Beowulf really represent? How can the character of Zoey Redbird really be understood? What is the importance of memories in Buffy the Vampire Slayer? And what should we make of Terry Pratchett’s undead creatures? And what role does the children-friendly vampire play? Beyond the Night offers a range of insights into these topics, as well as many more. It presents the reader with a vast array of old and new creatures in popular culture, analysing the significance they have for wider society. This collection will also help readers to understand their favourite monsters better in relation to questions concerning sexuality, gender, social change, and otherness.
