Book Synopsis Come As You Are, After Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick by : Jonathan Goldberg
Download or read book Come As You Are, After Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick written by Jonathan Goldberg and published by punctum books. This book was released on 2021-04-06 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book brings together two pieces of writing. In the first, "After Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick," Jonathan Goldberg assesses her legacy, prompted mainly by writing about Sedgwick's work that has appeared in the years since her death in April 2009. Writing by Lauren Berlant, Jane Gallop, Katy Hawkins, Scott Herring, Lana Lin, and Philomina Tsoukala are among those considered as he explores questions of queer temporality and the breaching of ontological divides. Main concerns include the relationship of Sedgwick's later work in Proust, fiber, and Buddhism to her fundamental contribution to queer theory, and the axes of identification across difference that motivated her work and attachment to it. "Come As You Are," the other piece of writing, is a previously unpublished talk Sedgwick gave in 1999-2000. It represents a significant bridge between her earlier and later work, sharing with her book Tendencies the ambition to discover the "something" that makes queer inextinguishable. In this piece, Sedgwick does that by contemplating her own mortality alongside her creative engagement with Buddhist thought, especially the in-between states named bardos and her newfound energy for making things. These were represented in a show of her fabric art, "Floating Columns/In the Bardo," that accompanied her talk, a number of images of which are included in this book. They feature floating figures suspended in the realization of death. They are objects produced by Sedgwick, made of fabric; they come from her, yet are discontinuous with her, occupying a mode of existence that exceeds the span of human life and the confines of individual identity. They could be put beside the queer transitive identifications across difference that Goldberg's essay explores"--Publisher's description
Book Synopsis Adam and Eve After the Pill by : Mary Eberstadt
Download or read book Adam and Eve After the Pill written by Mary Eberstadt and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2012-02-02 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Secular and religious thinkers agree: the sexual revolution is one of the most important milestones in human history. Perhaps nothing has changed life for so many, so fast, as the severing of sex and procreation. But what has been the result? This ground-breaking book by noted essayist and author Mary Eberstadt contends that sexual freedom has paradoxically produced widespread discontent. Drawing on sociologists Pitirim Sorokin, Carle Zimmerman, and others; philosopher G.E.M. Anscombe and novelist Tom Wolfe; and a host of feminists, food writers, musicians, and other voices from across today's popular culture, Eberstadt makes her contrarian case with an impressive array of evidence. Her chapters range across academic disciplines and include supporting evidence from contemporary literature and music, women's studies, college memoirs, dietary guides, advertisements, television shows, and films. Adam and Eve after the Pill examines as no book has before the seismic social changes caused by the sexual revolution. In examining human behavior in the post-liberation world, Eberstadt provocatively asks: Is food the new sex? Is pornography the new tobacco? Adam and Eve after the Pill will change the way readers view the paradoxical impact of the sexual revolution on ideas, morals, and humanity itself.

Download or read book Bonfire Opera written by Danusha Laméris and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 2020-04-14 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sometimes the most compelling landscapes are the ones where worlds collide: where a desert meets the sea, a civilization, no-man’s land. Here in Bonfire Opera, grief and Eros grapple in the same domain. A bullet-hole through the heart, a house full of ripe persimmons, a ghost in a garden. Coyotes cry out on the hill, and lovers find themselves kissing, “bee-stung, drunk” in the middle of road. Here, the dust is holy, as is the dark, unknown. These are poems that praise the impossible, wild world, finding beauty in its wake. Excerpt from “Bonfire Opera” In those days, there was a woman in our circle who was known, not only for her beauty, but also for taking off all her clothes and singing opera. And sure enough, as the night wore on and the stars emerged to stare at their reflections on the sea, and everyone had drunk a little wine, she began to disrobe, loose her great bosom and the tender belly, pale in the moonlight, the Viking hips, and to let her torn raiment fall to the sand as we looked up from the flames.

Download or read book Rewriting Eve written by Ronna J. Detrick and published by She Writes Press. This book was released on 2023-10-03 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We wouldn’t consider letting Isis, Medusa, Pandora, or Persephone slip from our lexicon. To somehow forget the legend of Harriet Tubman, Anne Frank, or Mother Teresa would never cross our minds. And yet when it comes to the stories of Eve and other biblical characters, they are rarely known, barely appreciated, and ostensibly “lost” by most of us not deeply entwined within organized religion. Trapped in patriarchy and theological argument, dismissed as irrelevant, or viewed as unchangeable even as times change, these women’s voices, desires, and hearts have too often been silenced through misunderstanding and neglect. As result, we are as well. But when they are reimagined, deconstructed, disentangled from doctrine and dogma, and heard on their own terms, these stories become powerful inspiration and a source of discernment that reconnects us to a feminine lineage and a sovereign sense of self we’ve never known to call on or trust. In Rewriting Eve: Rescuing Women's Stories from the Bible and Reclaiming Them As Our Own Ronna Detrick invites us into the presence and power of ten sacred women, revealing the endlessly relevant ways in which they speak today and showing how they can heal, embolden, and transform our stories.

Still grieving the loss of her beloved husband following a violent bank robbery, Eve is also grieving the subsequent death of her newborn baby. And then one cold February day, Adam Carry comes into her life when he shows up to take her son Anthony to hockey practice. Eve finds his flirtatious behaviour annoying and inappropriate, especially since she believes him a married dad. In fact, separated from his wife, childless Adam is impatient for his divorce to become final. Adam sees Eve and is smitten with her. The feeling is not reciprocal. But, she finds her heart warming to this man who clearly loves her and Anthony. Meanwhile, vindictive, conniving Alicia will stop at nothing to prevent Adam from finding happiness. When she ultimately drives Eve and Adam apart, Eve is convinced Adam is the twisted person Alicia described him to be. Devastated, Eve flees to her native Australia, believing Adam will never find her there. Carrying a secret within her and desperate to find a solution, she hastily marries an old flame. Only when things turn perilous Eve and Adam meet again. Finding Eve was one thing. Claiming love back is something else. Are Eve and Adam destined to live separate lives, or will fate intervene to bring them back together?
