The girls are assets, to be spent wisely. Their wishes are of no import. Their fates are written on the day they are born. Benvolio Montague, cousin to Romeo, knows all this. He expects to die for his cousin, for his house, but a spark of rebellion still lives inside him. At night, he is the Prince of Shadows, the greatest thief in Verona—and he risks all as he steals from House Capulet. In doing so, he sets eyes on convent-bound Rosaline, and a terrible curse begins that will claim the lives of many in Verona… …And will rewrite all their fates, forever.

Book Synopsis Gothic Metaphysics by : Jodey Castricano
Download or read book Gothic Metaphysics written by Jodey Castricano and published by University of Wales Press. This book was released on 2021-11-15 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gothic Metaphysics is a radical departure from Freudian-centred criticism of Gothic literature. It aims to explore our modern dilemma in the time of the Anthropocene, by bringing to light the role of Gothic since its inception in 1764 in holding space for a worldview familiar to certain mystical traditions – such as alchemy, which held to the view of a living cosmos yet later deemed ‘uncanny’ and anachronistic by Freud. In developing this idea, Gothic Metaphysics explores the influence of the Middle Ages on the emergence of Gothic, seeing it as an encrypted genre that serves as the site of a ‘live burial’ of ‘animism’, which has emerged in the notion of ‘quantum entanglement’ best described by Carl G. Jung and physicist Wolfgang Pauli in the theory of synchronicity linking alchemy with quantum mechanics. This relationship finds itself in dialogue with the Gothic’s long-held concern for the ‘sentience of space and place’, as described by renowned Gothic scholar Fredrick Frank. The volume Gothic Metaphysics is multi-valent and explores how Gothic has sustained the view of a sentient world despite the disqualification of nature – not only in respect to the extirpation of animism as a worldview, but also with regard to an affirmation of consciousness beyond that of human exceptionalism.

Book Synopsis The Complete Novels of Anthony Trollope by : Anthony Trollope
Download or read book The Complete Novels of Anthony Trollope written by Anthony Trollope and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-12-12 with total page 12377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Complete Novels of Anthony Trollope is a comprehensive collection of the works of one of the Victorian era's most prolific and esteemed authors. Trollope's writing is known for its keen observations of society, politics, and human relationships, often presented with subtle humor and wit. His novels, including 'The Warden', 'Barchester Towers', and 'The Last Chronicle of Barset', provide a rich tapestry of characters and settings that capture the complexities of life during the 19th century. Trollope's style is marked by his detailed character development and exploration of moral themes, making his works both entertaining and thought-provoking. His social commentary and satirical elements are prominent throughout his oeuvre. Anthony Trollope, a Victorian-era novelist and civil servant, drew inspiration from his firsthand experiences and observations of English society, politics, and bureaucracy. Trollope's career in the postal service informed his depictions of bureaucracy in his novels, adding a layer of authenticity and insight to his works. His ability to balance his literary pursuits with his professional responsibilities speaks to his dedication and talent as a writer. I highly recommend The Complete Novels of Anthony Trollope to readers interested in Victorian literature, social commentary, and engaging storytelling. Trollope's works offer a fascinating portrayal of 19th-century English society, presented through a lens of wit, wisdom, and timeless relevance.
