Download or read book The Fall of Man written by Ed Green and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2010-07-30 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many years, environmental catastrophe has been discounted as myth or propaganda. However, the science is now proven. Tides are rising and storms are brewing. Soon, the oil must run out... In a suburban home on the outskirts of Milton Keynes, a small family is fraying at the seams, and on the brink of a collapse of their own. Imprisoned by grief, Arnold witnesses the inexorable downwards spiral of his neighbourhood on television, from the confines of his living room. Fifty years on, Noah - a child in our times – is thrust into a dense, compact Britain he hardly recognizes, adrift in a society in the throes of transformation. Years later, the experiment falters and Nature threatens to take over entirely. Noah’s daughter Eve faces unimaginable consequences and her will to survive is tested to its limits... THE FALL OF MAN begins in the Britain of today. Three successive generations struggle to exist in a future rife with change. Their story chronicles a series of cataclysmic, global events, from the perspective of an all-too-human family.
Book Synopsis Reception Studies by : Lorna Hardwick
Download or read book Reception Studies written by Lorna Hardwick and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2003-05-15 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The texts, images and events of the ancient world have been used both as sources of authority and exploitation in politics, culture and society and as icons of resistance and contest. How classical culture is transplanted into new contexts, how texts are translated and performed and how Greek and Roman values are perceived and used continues to be a force in current debates. The main concepts and explanatory frameworks used in the field are introduced through chapters on reception within antiquity and case studies of more recent receptions from Africa, the Caribbean, Europe and the USA. The book will be of use to all those interested in the relationship between the arts, culture and society as well as to students and teachers of classical subjects and of literature, drama, film and comparative cultural studies.

Book Synopsis The Walking Muse by : Kirk Freudenburg
Download or read book The Walking Muse written by Kirk Freudenburg and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In laying the groundwork for a fresh and challenging reading of Roman satire, Kirk Freudenburg explores the literary precedents behind the situations and characters created by Horace, one of Rome's earliest and most influential satirists. Critics tend to think that his two books of Satires are but trite sermons of moral reform--which the poems superficially claim to be--and that the reformer speaking to us is the young Horace, a naive Roman imitator of the rustic, self-made Greek philosopher Bion. By examining Horace's debt to popular comedy and to the conventions of Hellenistic moral literature, however, Freudenburg reveals the sophisticated mask through which the writer distances himself from the speaker in these earthy diatribes--a mask that enables the lofty muse of poetry to walk in satire's mundane world of adulterous lovers and quarrelsome neighbors. After presenting the speaker of the diatribes as a stage character, a version of the haranguing cynic of comedy and mime, Freudenburg explains the theoretical importance of such conventions in satire at large. His analysis includes a reinterpretation of Horace's criticisms of Lucilius, and ends with a theory of satire based on the several images of the satirist presented in Book One, which reveals the true depth of Horace's ethical and philosophical concerns.
