Book excerpt: “You will fall in love soon.” I lifted a brow at him. “Let me guess, I’ll come into a large sum of money too.” His smile didn’t falter. “I don’t know about your finances, but I do know he is powerful, the most powerful in this city—a god among men, if you will.” Raised by strangers in rural Oklahoma, Zade Wilson would do anything to escape her mundane life, or so she thought. When her wish causes an accident on the highway, she is brought face to face with opportunity and doesn’t let it get away from her. Now, in a new city with millions of strange, new people, she is still trying to find out where she belongs. It doesn’t take long for her to figure out there is something different about the residents in Fable City and that she is more like them than she ever could have imagined. But something sinister is happening to the inhabitants of her new home, and she finds herself in desperate need to learn what kind of Fabled she is and how to use her abilities. Lucky for her, there happens to be a God who wouldn’t mind helping her out. Together they must find who is taking the Fabled and stop them, but things are not always what they seem in Fable City.

Book Synopsis Spirit, Soul, and City by : Jan H. Blits
Download or read book Spirit, Soul, and City written by Jan H. Blits and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2006 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spirit, Soul, and City offers a new reading of Coriolanus, Shakespeare's most political play and the last of his great tragedies. Portraying the founding of the Roman republic and the life and soul of its legendary warrior, Coriolanus, the play brings to light not only the hidden working of Rome's mixed regime but the inherent tragic tensions in the soul's spirited tendency to strive to go beyond itself in order to be true to itself. Distinguished scholar Jan H. Blits provides a fresh interpretation of this rich, complex, and often perplexing play, combining meticulous detail and insightful breadth. Proceeding line-by-line through the play, this book reaches its conclusions by closely examining Shakespeare's text--his plot, characters, language, structure, allusions, puzzles, and other devices.
Download or read book Plato's Fable written by Joshua Mitchell and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2009-01-10 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an exploration of Plato's Republic that bypasses arcane scholarly debates. Plato's Fable provides refreshing insight into what, in Plato's view, is the central problem of life: the mortal propensity to adopt defective ways of answering the question of how to live well. How, in light of these tendencies, can humankind be saved? Joshua Mitchell discusses the question in unprecedented depth by examining one of the great books of Western civilization. He draws us beyond the ancients/moderns debate, and beyond the notion that Plato's Republic is best understood as shedding light on the promise of discursive democracy. Instead, Mitchell argues, the question that ought to preoccupy us today is neither "reason" nor "discourse," but rather "imitation." To what extent is man first and foremost an "imitative" being? This, Mitchell asserts, is the subtext of the great political and foreign policy debates of our times. Plato's Fable is not simply a work of textual exegesis. It is an attempt to move debates within political theory beyond their current location. Mitchell recovers insights about the depth of the problem of mortal imitation from Plato's magnificent work, and seeks to explicate the meaning of Plato's central claim--that "only philosophy can save us."

Download or read book Aesop's Fables written by Aesop and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2002-07-18 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The story goes that a sow who had delivered a whole litter of piglets loudly accosted a lioness. "How many children do you breed?" asked the sow. "I breed only one", said the lioness, "but it is very well bred!"' The fables of Aesop have become one of the most enduring traditions of European culture, ever since they were first written down nearly two millennia ago. Aesop was reputedly a tongue-tied slave who miraculously received the power of speech; from his legendary storytelling came the collections of prose and verse fables scattered throughout Greek and Roman literature. First published in English by Caxton in 1484, the fables and their morals continue to charm modern readers: who does not know the story of the tortoise and the hare, or the boy who cried wolf? This new translation is the first to represent all the main fable collections in ancient Latin and Greek, arranged according to the fables' contents and themes. It includes 600 fables, many of which come from sources never before translated into English. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

Book Synopsis Fables of Modernity by : Laura S. Brown
Download or read book Fables of Modernity written by Laura S. Brown and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-08-06 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fables of Modernity expands the territory for cultural and literary criticism by introducing the concept of the cultural fable. Laura Brown shows how cultural fables arise from material practices in eighteenth-century England. These fables, the author says, reveal the eighteenth-century origins of modernity and its connection with two related paradigms of difference—the woman and the "native" or non-European.The collective narratives that Brown finds in the print culture of the period engage such prominent phenomena as the city sewer, trade and shipping, the stock market, the commercial printing industry, the "native" visitor to London, and the household pet. In connecting imagination and history through the category of the cultural fable, Brown illuminates the nature of modern experience in the growing metropolitan centers, the national consequences of global expansion, the volatility of credit, the transforming effects of capital, and the domestic consequences of colonialism and slavery.
Download or read book Mumbai Fables written by Gyan Prakash and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2010-10-10 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Starting from the catastrophic floods and terrorist attacks of recent years, Prakash reaches back to the sixteenth-century Portuguese conquest to reveal the stories behind Mumbai's historic journey. Examining Mumbai's role as a symbol of opportunity and reinvention, he looks at its nineteenth-century development under British rule and its twentieth-century emergence as a fabled city on the sea. Different layers of urban experience come to light as he recounts the narratives of the Nanavati murder trial and the rise and fall of the tabloid Blitz, and Mumbai's transformation from the red city of trade unions and communists into the saffron city of Hindu nationalist Shiv Sena. Starry-eyed planners and elite visionaries, cynical leaders and violent politicians of the street, land sharks and underworld dons jostle with ordinary citizens and poor immigrants as the city copes with the dashed dreams of postcolonial urban life and lurches into the seductions of globalization. --
Download or read book Fabled Lost written by S. L. Gavyn and published by S. L. Gavyn. This book was released on with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “My poor, sweet beast. How broken we are apart.” William Ford just wants his life back. He was a normal guy who took a job working as a glorified gofer at a lab, and now he is a freak who turns into an even bigger freak when he can’t control himself. Slowly, he is slipping away until he fears only the beast inside him will remain. That is when he meets Lucian Dubois. The Council leader helps William by bringing him to the strongest Fae in existence, the Bruce. Only the Bruce wants William as his champion while William wants his freedom—freedom from the Caduceus, freedom from the Fabled, and freedom from the beast within. A chance encounter with a woman will change everything he finds important because this isn’t their first meeting or their first life. Kairi Blake is living a lie. She lives in a town where no one is real, goes to a college that is a sham, and gets monthly injections that keep the farce in place. Her primary problem is that she can’t remember anything but the lie. Help from a friend brings back the barest of memories, but it’s enough to give her direction to the only family she has. Together Kairi and William go on the run from not only the enemy but their supposed allies as well to help reunite Kairi with her past. Little did they know that their pasts are so deeply intertwined, and only together can they save each other.

Bodies of vampere have been showing up in Dallas and Sunny is called in to find out who killed them. She figures out quickly that these are no ordinary deaths. Someone is targeting new vamps and there is only one similarity. A club called Eternal Darkness. The only problem for Sunny is that this club is owned by a vampere she knew long ago. One she has never forgotten and never will. Roman Alexander has wandered this world far longer than he would care to remember. He was used to getting what he wanted either by coercion or force but there was one thing he wanted and couldn’t have. The woman who stole his heart and crushed it.

Download or read book Habitual Rhetoric written by Alex Mueller and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 2023-09-19 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writing has always been digital. Just as digits scribble with the quill or tap the typewriter, digits compose binary code and produce text on a screen. Over time, however, digital writing has come to be defined by numbers and chips, not fingers and parchment. We therefore assume that digital writing began with the invention of the computer and created new writing habits, such as copying, pasting, and sharing. Habitual Rhetoric: Digital Writing before Digital Technology makes the counterargument that these digital writing practices were established by the handwritten cultures of early medieval universities, which codified rhetorical habits—from translation to compilation to disputation to amplification to appropriation to salutation—through repetitive classroom practices and within annotatable manuscript environments. These embodied habits have persisted across time and space to develop durable dispositions, or habitus, which have the potential to challenge computational cultures of disinformation and surveillance that pervade the social media of today.
