Book Synopsis Tarnished Heroes, Charming Villains and Modern Monsters by : Lynnette Porter
Download or read book Tarnished Heroes, Charming Villains and Modern Monsters written by Lynnette Porter and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-01-10 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The heroes, villains, and monsters portrayed in such popular science fiction television series as Heroes, Lost, Battlestar Galactica, Caprica, Doctor Who, and Torchwood, as well as Joss Whedon's many series, illustrate a shift from traditional, clearly defined characterizations toward much murkier definitions. Traditional heroes give way to "gray" heroes who must become more like the villains or monsters they face if they are going to successfully save society. This book examines the ambiguous heroes and villains, focusing on these characters' different perspectives on morality and their roles within society. Appendices include production details for each series, descriptions and summaries of pivotal episodes, and a list of selected texts for classroom use. Instructors considering this book for use in a course may request an examination copy here.

Book Synopsis Villainage in England by : Paul Vinogradoff
Download or read book Villainage in England written by Paul Vinogradoff and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2019-11-26 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Villainage in England' is a history book written by Paul Vinogradoff. According to the Encyclopædia Britannica Eleventh Edition, published in 1911, Vinogradoff's book was "perhaps the most important book written on the peasantry of the feudal age and the village community in England; it can only be compared for value with FW Maitland's Domesday Book and Beyond. In masterly fashion Vinogradoff here shows that the villein of Norman times was the direct descendant of the Anglo-Saxon freeman, and that the typical Anglo-Saxon settlement was a free community, not a manor, the position of the freeman having steadily deteriorated in the centuries just around the Norman Conquest. The status of the villein and the conditions of the manor in the 12th and 13th centuries are set forth with a legal precision and a wealth of detail which shows its author, not only as a very capable historian, but also as a brilliant and learned jurist."
