Book excerpt: Gypsy Lord is the first book in a beautiful repackaging and reissuing of classic Kat Martin historical romances! He was Dominic Edgemont, Lord Nightwyck, heir to the Marquis of Gravenwold. But he was also a dark-eyed, half-gypsy bastard.... When tall, handsome Dominic sees one of his Romany band whipping a beautiful, flame-haired captive, he never dreams she is a pampered heiress stolen fro the English court. To have her, he will pay a king's ransom and make himself her lord. Lovely Catrina forbids Dominic her bed, but her fiery temper is no match for his cool determination to take her as his lover. Still, in this novel from Kat Martin, she will not be passion's slave forever. She and her Gypsy Lord will meet again-in a glittering London setting, far from the rustic tent they shared. Will her desire for revenge overwhelm her natural urge to love?

Book excerpt: A runaway slave with a shadowy past, sixteen-year-old Persephone has spent four long years toiling beneath the leering gaze of her despised owner and dreaming of a life where she is free to shape her own destiny. Then, one night, a chance encounter with a handsome chicken thief named Azriel changes her life forever. Sold to him for a small bag of gold coins, Persephone soon discovers what she already suspected: namely, that Azriel is not what he seems. And when she realizes that he believes Persephone has a special destiny—she is determined to escape him and his impossibly broad shoulders. But things are no longer as simple as they once were. Torn between her longing for freedom and her undeniable feelings for the handsome thief with the fast hands and the slow smile, Persephone faces the hardest choice she will ever have to make. And no one—least of all her—could have imagined the shocking truth her decision will reveal.
Download or read book Gypsies written by Diane Tong and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-01-28 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book of interdisciplinary readings on Gypsies is sensitive to the Romani point of view and avoids exoticizing or patronizing the Gypsies and their culture. Recurrent themes in the readings include: the historical oppression of the Gypsies including contemporary xenophobia and violence; the nonstatic, heterogeneous nature of Gypsy cultures; the persistence of racist stereotypes; and personal and institutional Gypsy/non-Gypsy relationships. Nearly all of the classic essays updated for this volume tell stories of the persistance of the Roma in the face of savage atrocities and appalling living conditions.

Download or read book The Gypsy Morph written by Terry Brooks and published by Del Rey. This book was released on 2008-08-26 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Terry Brooks's The Measure of the Magic. Terry Brooks won instant acclaim with his phenomenal New York Times bestseller The Sword of Shannara. Its sequels earned Brooks legendary status. Then his darkly enthralling The Word and the Void trilogy revealed new depths and vistas to his mastery of epic fantasy. Armageddon’s Children and The Elves of Cintra took Brooks’s remarkable mythos to a breathtaking new level by delving deep into the history of Shannara. And now, The Gypsy Morph rounds out–with an adventure of unforgettably imaginative scope–the first phase of a new chapter in this classic series. Eighty years into the future, the United States is a no-man’s-land: its landscape blighted by chemical warfare, pollution, and plague; its government collapsed; its citizens adrift, desperate, fighting to stay alive. In fortified compounds, survivors hold the line against wandering predators, rogue militias, and hideous mutations spawned from the toxic environment, while against them all stands an enemy neither mortal nor merciful: demons and their minions bent on slaughtering and subjugating the last of humankind. But from around the country, allies of good unite to challenge the rampaging evil. Logan Tom, wielding the magic staff of a Knight of the Word, has a promise to keep–protecting the world’ s only hope of salvation–and a score to settle with the demon that massacred his family. Angel Perez, Logan’s fellow Knight, has risked her life to aid the elvish race, whose peaceful, hidden realm is marked for extermination by the forces of the Void. Kirisin Belloruus, a young elf entrusted with an ancient magic, must deliver his entire civilization from a monstrous army. And Hawk, the rootless boy who is nothing less than destiny’s instrument, must lead the last of humanity to a latter-day promised land before the final darkness falls. The Gypsy Morph is an epic saga of a world in flux as the mortal realm yields to a magical one; as the champions of the Word and the Void clash for the last time to decide what will be and what must cease; and as, from the remnants of a doomed age, something altogether extraordinary rises.

Download or read book 2012 written by Peter Hargitai and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2010-11-24 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AMAZING PROPHECY HIDDEN IN NOVEL! By the author who foretold 911 and the Twin Towers meltdown! In all that is banal and bathetic lurks the heroic as in the story of Attila Nagy whose mad forays into time sound the horn of prophecy. The visionary path its author Peter Hargitai cuts into time intersects with Nostradamus’ famous Epistle and with contemporary history: “The great empire of the Antichrist will begin where Attila and Xerxes descended.” --Nostradamus (from the Epistle to Henry II) Praise for Editor’s Choice Author Peter Hargitai: “This deliciously ironic, picaresque tale borders on the bizarre, but Hargitai is a language master capable of effortless shifts from reality to myth ... This genre-bending novel is a pleasure to read. Highly recommended for all fiction collections.” --Library Journal Hargitai maintains a high level of tension; with arrogant abandon he plays out his tricks and his intricate cat-and-mouse game on the reader with huge success. So deft are his embroidery of metaphors and redressing of myths that we give credence to the most outrageous bluffs, mythical occurrences, pseudomagic, drug-induced psychedelic visions, inexplicable apparitions, and a bevy of layers-thick concealments ... Few can convey the madness of the New World with such absurd dexterity, and such a keen sense of irony and the grotesque. This mischievous, iconoclastic sorcerer manages to mesmerize everybody.” --World Literature Today
Book Synopsis In Search of the True Gypsy by : Wim Willems
Download or read book In Search of the True Gypsy written by Wim Willems and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-01-14 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has only been recognised tardily and with reluctance that during the Second World War hundreds of thousands of itinerants met the same horrendous fate as Jews and other victims of Nazism. Gypsies appear to appeal to the imagination simply as social outcasts and scapegoats or, in a flattering but no more illuminating light, as romantic outsiders. In this study, contemporary notions about Gypsies are traced back as far as possible to their roots, in an attempt to lay bare why stigmatisation of gypsies, or rather groups labelled as such, has continuned from the distant past even to today.
Book Synopsis Gypsy Identities 1500-2000 by : David Mayall
Download or read book Gypsy Identities 1500-2000 written by David Mayall and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-03-01 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gypsies have lived in England since the early sixteenth century, yet considerable confusion and disagreement remain over the precise identity of the group. The question 'Who are the Gypsies?' is still asked and the debates about the positioning and permanence of the boundary between Gypsy and non-Gypsy are contested as fiercely today as at any time before. This study locates these debates in their historical perspective, tracing the origins and reproduction of the various ways of defining and representing the Gypsy from the early sixteenth century to the present day. Starting with a consideration of the early modern description of Gypsies as Egyptians, land pirates and vagabonds, the volume goes on to examine the racial classification of the nineteenth century and the emergence of the ethnic Gypsy in the twentieth century. The book closes with an exploration of the long-lasting image of the group as vagrant and parasitic nuisances which spans the whole period from 1500 to 2000.

Book Synopsis Roma-Gypsy Presence in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth by : Lech Mróz
Download or read book Roma-Gypsy Presence in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth written by Lech Mróz and published by Central European University Press. This book was released on 2016-11-01 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an analysis of 166 original and previously unpublished documents dating from the very first mention of a Gypsy in 1401 up to the year 1 765. These documents range from royal decrees thru lawsuits to entries in municipal records. Some were written in Polish but many are in Latin, German or Ruthenian. They tell the story of not only the Gypsies living in Poland, but also of those who now live in Belarus, Lithuania, Latvia and Ukraine. Though Poland has not traditionally had a large Roma population, the author leads the reader through an eventful history of a people living on the margins of contemporary Europe. The historic documents illustrate a marked contrast to present stereotypes and popular media images and shows how the position of Roma/Gypsies shifted gradually from respected, wealthy and partly settled citizens of the early modern times, towards criminalized vagrants of the 18 th century. This is a careful interpretation and re-interpretation of documents pertaining to the Roma's past that will provide an enlightening historical perspective towards the re-evaluation and self-definition of the Romani people in contemporary Europe.
Book Synopsis The Gypsy's Prophesy by : Ettie N. Parker
Download or read book The Gypsy's Prophesy written by Ettie N. Parker and published by Tate Publishing. This book was released on 2008 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gypsy's Prophesy is a very rich, real-life account of Washington State adventurer, Iorn Northup, and the lovely Ozark-born, Susan Yingst-two very different and engaging people whose lives are improbably intertwined. Set in the majestic forests of Washington State and the beautiful Arkansas Ozarks in the early 1900's, author Ettie Northup Parker, with the assistance of her daughter, Joyce, are remarkable writers who astutely capture the authenticity and realism of life for the two pioneering people-Northup and Yingst.
Book Synopsis The Complete Folktales of A. N. Afanas'ev, Volume III by : Jack V. Haney
Download or read book The Complete Folktales of A. N. Afanas'ev, Volume III written by Jack V. Haney and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2021-02-01 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Up to now, there has been no complete English-language version of the Russian folktales of A. N. Afanas’ev. This translation is based on L. G. Barag and N. V. Novikov’s edition, widely regarded as the authoritative Russian-language edition. The present edition includes commentaries to each tale as well as its international classification number. This third volume contains 305 tales, those numbered 319–579, as well as forty-five additional tales from among those denied publication by the Russian censors. The folktales of A. N. Afanas’ev represent the largest single collection of folktales in any European language and perhaps in the world. Widely regarded as the Russian Grimm, Afanas’ev collected folktales from throughout the Russian Empire in what are now regarded as the three East Slavic languages, Belarusian, Russian, and Ukrainian. In his lifetime, Afanas’ev published more than 575 tales in his most popular and best-known work, Narodnye russkie skazki. In addition to this basic collection, he prepared a volume of Russian legends, many on religious themes; a collection of mildly obscene tales, Russkie zavetnye skazki; and voluminous writings on Slavic folklife and mythology. His works were subject to the strict censorship of ecclesiastical and state authorities that lasted until the demise of the Soviet Union in the 1990s. Overwhelmingly, his particular emendations were stylistic, while those of the censors mostly concerned content.
