Download or read book Tomorrowing written by Terry Bisson and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2024-04-12 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For twenty years, Terry Bisson published a regular “This Month in History” column in the science fiction magazine Locus. Tomorrowing collects these two decades of memorable events---four per month---each set in a totally different imaginary yet possible, inevitable yet avoidable future. From the first AI president to the first dog on Mars to the funeral of Earth’s last glacier, these stories are speculative SF at its most (and least) serious. Collected as a series for the first time, Tomorrowing will amuse, alarm, intrigue, entertain, and like all good science fiction, make readers think. Bisson’s short stories have won every major award in science fiction, including the Hugo and the Nebula, but never, ever anything for this series.
Download or read book Selah Stuff written by Tim Lanier and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-11-07 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selah moments...are those times when we don't just live our life, we examine it. We read certain events through the contemplative lenses of our God-given reflectacles. Selah moments enable us to slow down and internalize the message of Scripture with our internal eyes. Selah moments provide us with an appropriate place to pause and appropriate God's Word into our lives. In the pages of this book, I have gathered together some of my Selah moments. At first glance, it might look like a random collection of stories, poems, insights, and homilies. However, each of these writings began as an entry in my journal--the place where I write about what I think about. As you read these journal entries, I believe that some of them will remind you of your own journey. The chapters are grouped around the cast of characters who have walked with me in my original road show: my family, people I've encountered along the way, the living words of Scripture, and my Heavenly Father. The personalities in your production will be as unique as you are, just as your story lines will be your own. But I believe there will be moments in the reading of this text where the differences in the details become less and less important as you say to yourself, "I get that," "I've felt the same way," "I've asked myself that very question," "I thought I was the only one who'd ever gone through that." As your emotions are engaged, I hope that your time in this book will become more and more like a conversation with a friend and fellow pilgrim. And I pray that the Selah Stuff in these pages will remind you to stop, look, and listen to what God is saying in the moments of your own life.
Book Synopsis Experiencing Narrative Worlds by : Richard J. Gerrig
Download or read book Experiencing Narrative Worlds written by Richard J. Gerrig and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it mean to be transported by a narrative--to create a world inside one's head? How do experiences of narrative worlds alter our experience of the real world? In this book Richard Gerrig integrates insights from cognitive psychology and from research in linguistics, philosophy, and literary criticism to provide a cohesive account of what have most often been treated as isolated aspects of narrative experience. Drawing on examples from Tolstoi to Toni Morrison, Gerrig offers new analyses of some classic problems in the study of narrative. He discusses the ways in which we are cognitively equipped to tackle fictional and nonfictional narratives; how thought and emotion interact when we experience narrative; how narrative information influences judgments in the real world; and the reasons we can feel the same excitement and suspense when we reread a book as when we read it for the first time. Gerrig also explores the ways we enhance the experience of narratives, through finding solutions to textual dilemmas, enjoying irony at the expense of the characters in narrative, and applying a wide range of interpretive techniques to discover meanings concealed by and from authors.
Book Synopsis The Routledge Handbook of Social Studies of Outer Space by : Juan Francisco Salazar
Download or read book The Routledge Handbook of Social Studies of Outer Space written by Juan Francisco Salazar and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-10 with total page 778 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Handbook of Social Studies of Outer Space offers state-of-the-art overview of contemporary social and cultural research on outer space. International in scope, the thirty-eight contributions by over fifty leading researchers and artists across a variety of disciplines and fields of knowledge, present a range of debates and pose key questions about the crafting of futures in relation to outer space. The Handbook is a call to attend more carefully to engagements with outer space, empirically, affectively, and theoretically, while characterizing current research practices and outlining future research agendas. This recalibration opens profound questions of intersectional politics, race, equity, and environmental justice around the contested topics of space exploration and life off-Earth. Among the many themes included in the volume are the various infrastructures, networks and systems that enable and sustain space exploration; space heritage; the ethics of outer space; social and environmental justice; fundamental debates about life in outer space as it pertains to both astrobiology and SETI; the study of scientific communities; the human body and consciousness; Indigenous astronomical systems of Knowledge; contemporary space art; and ongoing critical interventions to overcome the legacies of colonialism and dismantle hegemonic narratives of outer space.

Isolated in Leibowitz Abbey, Brother Blacktooth St. George suffers a crisis of faith, torn between his vows and his Nomad upbringing, between the Holy Virgin and visions of the Wild Horse Woman of his people. At the brink of disgrace and expulsion from his order, the young monk is championed by a powerful cardinal who has plans for him. Blacktooth sets out on a journey across a landscape still scarred by the long-ago Flame Deluge, a land divided by nature, politics, and war. He will find horrors and wonders, sins of the flesh . . . and love. As he encounters and reencounters a beautiful but forbidden mutant named Ædrea, he begins to wonder: is a she-devil, the Holy Mother, or the Wild Horse Woman herself?
Book Synopsis The Moon Maid Illustrated by : Edgar Rice Burroughs
Download or read book The Moon Maid Illustrated written by Edgar Rice Burroughs and published by . This book was released on 2021-04-12 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Moon Maid is a fantasy novel by American writer Edgar Rice Burroughs, belonging to the Lost World sub-genre. It was written in three parts, Part 1 was begun in June 1922 under the title The Moon Maid, Part 2 was begun in 1919 under the title Under the Red Flag, later retitled The Moon Men, Part 3 was titled The Red Hawk. As evident from its name, Under the Red Flag was originally set in contemporary Soviet Russia, with the Bolsheviks as villains; as this was not popular with the publishers, Burroughs transferred it to a science-fictional setting, with the evil Communist-like "Kalkars" taking over the Moon (in the first part) and then the Earth (in the second part, with the help of a renegade Earthman) and being finally overthrown in the third part. (Also the Thorists, villains of Pirates of Venus, are clearly modeled on the Russian Communists.)
