Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The evolution of the portrayal of Queen Guinevere from the largely negative image beginning in the Middle Ages to the revisionist treatments of modern fantasy writers is studied from a Jungian-feminist perspective. Using a revised quaternity of feminine archetypes, Gordon-Wise demonstrates how Guinevere embodied negative aspects of the archetypes of Mother, Maiden, Wise Woman, and Warrior and how speculative theories of primitive goddess worship have been used by modern fantasy writers to create a Guinevere that reflects ongoing feminist concerns.

Book Synopsis The Palgrave Handbook of Shakespeare's Queens by : Kavita Mudan Finn
Download or read book The Palgrave Handbook of Shakespeare's Queens written by Kavita Mudan Finn and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-07-20 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of Shakespeare’s thirty-seven plays, fifteen include queens. This collection gives these characters their due as powerful early modern women and agents of change, bringing together new perspectives from scholars of literature, history, theater, and the fine arts. Essays span Shakespeare’s career and cover a range of famous and lesser-known queens, from the furious Margaret of Anjou in the Henry VI plays to the quietly powerful Hermione in The Winter’s Tale; from vengeful Tamora in Titus Andronicus to Lady Macbeth. Early chapters situate readers in the critical concerns underpinning any discussion of Shakespeare and queenship: the ambiguous figure of Elizabeth I, and the knotty issue of gender presentation. The focus then moves to analysis of issues such as motherhood, intertextuality, and contemporary political contexts; close readings of individual plays; and investigations of rhetoric and theatricality. Featuring twenty-five chapters with a rich variety of themes and methodologies, this handbook is an invaluable reference for students and scholars, and a unique addition to the fields of Shakespeare and queenship studies.
Download or read book Reclamation written by J. D. Greenwood and published by . This book was released on 2011-04-24 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dragon queen, Seitabellan, has successfully made her way to Chavlangth to proclaim her sovereignty with the help of her champion, the massive warrior dragon, Jhorenhenden. The queen had only to beckon and the mighty dragons of Mystolyn answered her call returning in a great, replenished force to aid in the reclamation process. As Guardian of the Dragons and Guardian's Champion, Arie and Jaffallendar find themselves in the midst of the action, which enables their strategic plans, but may also tend to compromise their securities for each other.The stately queen is confident Mystolyn will be restored to its former glory, though the casualties may be extensive. Arie soon finds that there may be even more at stake than she had originally thought. Her love for Seitabellan and dutiful determination prohibits her from turning back, but unforeseen enemy tactics bring about unbearable, possibly irreversible, losses. Her heart may not recover the anguish she may have to face and endure, her champion may not be able to protect her from what lies ahead, and her queen may not be able to reach her in her time, if at all. The unselfish efforts, abundant skills and complete dedication of all are thrust into the many battles, brief and expanded, slight and extensive, fair and dishonorable, but in the end it may not be enough to make the reclamation worth the sacrifices that are required. Hearts, hopes and lives hang in the balance as the future of Mystolyn is unraveled in the reclamation.
Book Synopsis The Queen and I by : Sydney L. Iaukea
Download or read book The Queen and I written by Sydney L. Iaukea and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Queen and I will be a very important contribution to historical and political literature on early twentieth century Hawai'i. But through its intensely personal narrative, it could have an even greater impact on the way people look at history. Sydney Iaukea weaves archival information into a story about a well-known historical figure while demonstrating the impact of these archival voices on herself. In this way she binds herself to her ancestor and allows him to speak through her, showing how an ancient value can be a new methodology for Native writers in indigenous studies." —Jonathan Kay Kamakawiwo’ole Osorio, author of Dismembering Lahui: A History of the Hawaiian Nation to 1887 “Raised in Maui’s housing projects, Sydney Iaukea discovers as an adult that she is the direct descendent of Curtis P. Iaukea, a prominent statesman and trusted adviser to Queen Lili’uokalani, the Hawaiian Kingdom’s last ruling monarch. In this courageous work, she documents her dual quest to recover her lost lineage and her ancestor’s historical importance. Revealing the continuity between public and private, personal and historical, Sydney Iaukea’s compelling narrative brings her readers face-to-face with Lili’uokalani during the tragic days of her overthrow.” —Mary Palevsky, author of Atomic Fragments: A Daughter's Questions “For those of us born and raised in Hawai'i, Sydney Iaukea's work sheds light on a period of time about which we still know too little, the overthrow of Hawai’i’s sovereign government and its forcible annexation to the U.S. This is a compelling narrative, driven by the mystery of a girl growing up poor, unaware of her distinguished lineage. How could this disconnect have occurred? Through the exploration of memories embedded in the landscape, Iaukea ultimately links displacement, dispossession, and familial strife to Hawai'i's troubled history with the U.S. Iaukea is to be commended for her honest and open heart.” —Matthew M. Hamabata, Executive Director, The Kohala Center

Download or read book Queen Victoria written by Helen Rappaport and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2003-05-05 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This resource covers the life, times, and relationships of Queen Victoria, providing information about her children, her personal interests, the historic times in which she ruled, and the leaders she influenced. In this fascinating guide to every aspect of Queen Victoria's life, author Helen Rappaport analyzes the queen's personality, celebrates her achievements, and details the shortcomings of her empire, both in Britain, with its continuing divide between rich and poor, and overseas, where Britain's great empire was won by repression and exploitation. A–Z entries—including topics barely touched in standard biographies—cover things like the various assassination attempts on her life, her interest in dancing and Jack the Ripper's murders, and how her husband Prince Albert introduced the celebration of Christmas to England. Queen Victoria also describes individuals such as her companion Lady Jane Churchill, her physician Sir James Clark, and politicians such as William Gladstone and Benjamin Disraeli; events like the Irish potato famine; inventions like steam power; and issues such as missionary activity and prostitution. It also includes bibliographies both for each entry and overall, and a chronology.
Download or read book The Lady Queen written by Nancy Goldstone and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2009-11-03 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On March 15, 1348, Joanna I, the queen of Naples, stood trial for her life before the Pope and his court in Avignon. She was 20, and accused of murdering her cousin and husband, Hungarian prince Andrew. That she won her acquittal--arguing her own case in Latin--was remarkable in its own right; that she would go on to rule over one of Europe's most glittering courts for more than 30 years was extraordinary. For the first time, Nancy Goldstone tells the full story of one of the most courageous and accomplished women in history, who challenged the powers of her time, and whose life highlights the dynastic rivalries and alliances across Europe in the dramatic 14th century. She was the only woman in her time to rule in her own name. Dedicated to the welfare of her subjects and realm, Joanna reduced crime, built hospitals and churches, encouraged the licensing of women physicians, and lured some of the most important writers and artists of the century to her glamorous, elegant court, which rivaled that of Elizabeth I of England in power and scope. Around her also swirled war, plague, and the intrigue and treachery that would ultimately be her downfall. As Nancy Goldstone reveals, in Joanna's legacy are found the seeds of both the Renaissance and the Reformation. For anyone who has enjoyed the works of Alison Weir, Amanda Foreman, and Antonia Fraser,The Lady Queen will be must reading.
