Holding up the great books as the best way to understand these timeless story elements, the discussion devotes a chapter to each of the six archetypes; the innocent, the orphan, the pilgrim, the warrior-lover, the monarch pair, and the magician.

Book Synopsis The Greek Plays (Large Print 16pt) by : Ellen McLaughlin
Download or read book The Greek Plays (Large Print 16pt) written by Ellen McLaughlin and published by ReadHowYouWant.com. This book was released on 2010-07 with total page 598 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This chilling passage is from Ellen McLaughlin's new adaptation of The Persians by Aeschylus, the earliest surviving play in Western literature, an elegy for a fallen civi-lization and a warning to its new conqueror. As Margo Jefferson wrote in the New York Times, ''the play is a true classic: we see the present and the future right there, inside the past. And when writers give us a 'new version' (a translation or adaptation) of a classic, they both serve and use it. They serve the playwright's gifts by refusing to simplify. But they can't just imitate. Every age has its own rhythms and drives. The classic must make us feel the new acutely. Ellen McLaughlin serves and uses The Persians with true power and grace.''
Book Synopsis Hartley Field (Large Print 16pt) by : Connie Wanek
Download or read book Hartley Field (Large Print 16pt) written by Connie Wanek and published by ReadHowYouWant.com. This book was released on 2010-10 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The poems in Hartley Field are by turns witty and amusing, lyrical and moving. But always they are clear and -direct. Wanek writes clever, closely observed poems on subjects as diverse as ''Butter'' and ''the Hammer,'' work which is in the tradition of Francis Ponge and Pablo Neruda. These are often humorous and are enormous fun to read. Similarly, a number of poems focus upon children's games and activities (''Checkers'' and ''Jump Rope,'' among others), and explore them physically and psychologically. What is most remarkable about this collection is the consistent originality of the imagery and elegance of language. In the poem ''Late September,'' we find ''a plumed of smoke hand-feeding the wind.'' The object poem ''lemon'' observes that the fruit has ''bumpers on both ends like a Volks wagon.'' A racoon advancing into a dark yard is described as ''a creature both manly and womanly/capable of force or seduction.'' Here is the first stanza of the elegiac ''After Us.'' Rain is falling through the roof. And all that prospered under the sun the books that opened in the morning and closed at night, and all day turned their pages to the light. . . . Joyce Sutphen says of Wanek, ''Nothing about what she says or sees is routine...(Hartley Field) is a book of revelations; in poem after poem, some ordinary object or event is split open with such keen tenderness that the heart is caught off guard.'' Connie Wanek was born in 1952 and lives in Duluth, Minnesota. She is the author of Bonfire, published in 1997 by New Rivers Press. Her poems have appeared in The Atlantic Monthly, Poetry, The Virginia Quarterly, Country Journal, and many other publications. She has been awarded fellowship support from the Arrowhead Regional Arts Council and The Jerome Foundation.
Book Synopsis 500 Years of Indigenous Resistance (Large Print 16pt) by : Gord Hill
Download or read book 500 Years of Indigenous Resistance (Large Print 16pt) written by Gord Hill and published by ReadHowYouWant.com. This book was released on 2010-07 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An alternative and unorthodox view of the colonization of the Americas by Europeans is offered in this concise history. Eurocentric studies of the conquest of the Americas present colonization as a civilizing force for good, and the native populations as primitive or worse. Colonization is seen as a mutually beneficial process, in which ''civilization'' was brought to the natives who in return shared their land and cultures. The opposing historical camp views colonization as a form of genocide in which the native populations were passive victims overwhelmed by European military power. In this fresh examination, an activist and historian of native descent argues that the colonial powers met resistance from the indigenous inhabitants and that these confrontations shaped the forms and extent of colonialism. This account encompasses North and South America, the development of nation-states, and the resurgence of indigenous resistance in the post-World War II era.
