Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Manjusha Pawagi, a successful family court judge, has written a not-so-typical memoir about her experience with cancer. Wryly funny and stubbornly hopeful, this is her quirky take on what it's like to face your own mortality when, to be honest, you thought you'd live forever. She describes how even the darkest moments of life can be made worse with roommates; details how much determination it takes to ignore the statistics; and answers the age-old question: what does it take to get a banana popsicle around here?

Book excerpt: In a world where color is magic and belief is power, four misfit immortals are picked by fate.Literally as old as dirt, Bai is tired of learning, tired of killing, tired of life. So he retreats to his mountain, taking the key to the Underworld with him.Jin needs that key. It is the only way to save her father, the Sun Emperor and ruler of the Heavens. But Jin is merely the Goddess of Beauty, and whoever cursed the Sun Emperor is now hunting her.The only being who will help her is Xiao, the God of Pleasure and her future husband. But Xiao lives in a drunken haze; can he really protect Jin when he can't even care for himself?Luckily Nanami, the world's second best thief, knows what to do. Steal Xiao's Infinite Jug and don't steal his heart-even if she really wants to. The meeting of these powerful but lonely beings will reveal secrets that could destroy the heavens-and dreams that might save the world.

Download or read book John Gower, Recent Readings written by Robert F. Yeager and published by Medieval Institute Publications. This book was released on 1989 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, Gower's reputation has begun to evolve. Scholars and critics have opened his books once more to discover there a talent worthy of respect, rather than something to be viewed as tedious or dull. Recently it has seemed easier to understand Chaucer's good will toward the moral friend and fellow author into whose tutelary watchfulness he commended Troilus and Criseyde-and easier to assess the positive value Chaucer's adjective must have borne. The thirteen essays included here all represent a fresh approach, an effort by North American and European scholars to offer a representative sample of the many diverse directions taken by Gower studies today. The essays demonstrate the life still present in Gower's work and serve as both an excellent introduction and update on the state of Gower scholarship.

Download or read book Laughing Histories written by Joy Wiltenburg and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-06-07 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Laughing Histories breaks new ground by exploring moments of laughter in early modern Europe, showing how laughter was inflected by gender and social power. "I dearly love a laugh," declared Jane Austen's heroine Elizabeth Bennet, and her wit won the heart of the aristocratic Mr. Darcy. Yet the widely read Earl of Chesterfield asserted that only "the mob" would laugh out loud; the gentleman should merely smile. This literary contrast raises important historical questions: how did social rules constrain laughter? Did the highest elites really laugh less than others? How did laughter play out in relations between the sexes? Through fascinating case studies of individuals such as the Renaissance artist Benvenuto Cellini, the French aristocrat Madame de Sévigné, and the rising civil servant and diarist Samuel Pepys, Laughing Histories reveals the multiple meanings of laughter, from the court to the tavern and street, in a complex history that paved the way for modern laughter. With its study of laughter in relation to power, aggression, gender, sex, class, and social bonding, Laughing Histories is perfect for readers interested in the history of emotions, cultural history, gender history, and literature.

Download or read book Andreas Capellanus on Love written by Andreas (Capellanus.) and published by Bristol Classical Press. This book was released on 1982 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The De Amore of Andreas Capellanus (André the Chaplain), composed in France in the 1180s, is celebrated as the first comprehensive discussion of theory of courtly love. The book is believed to have been intended to portray conditions at Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine's court at Poitiers between 1170 and 1174, and written the request of her daughter, Countess Marie of Troyes. As such, it is important for its connections to themes of contemporary Latin lyric, in troubadour poetry and in the French romances of Chrétien de Troyes. Thereafter its influence spread throughout Western Europe, so that the treatise is of fundamental importance for students of medieval and renaissance English, French, Italian and Spanish. In this comprehensive edition, P.G. Walsh includes Trojel's Latin text with his own facing English translation with explanatory notes, commentary and indexes, along with introduction which sets the treatise in its contemporary context and assesses its purpose and importance.

Download or read book Shakespeare and laughter written by Indira Ghose and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2013-07-19 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines laughter in the Shakespearean theatre, in the context of a cultural history of early modern laughter. Aimed at an informed readership as well as graduate students and scholars in the field of Shakespeare studies, it is the first study to focus specifically on laughter, not comedy. It looks at various strands of the early modern discourse on laughter, ranging from medical treatises and courtesy manuals to Puritan tracts and jestbook literature. It argues that few cultural phenomena have undergone as radical a change in meaning as laughter. Laughter became bound up with questions of taste and class identity. At the same time, humanist thinkers revalorised the status of recreation and pleasure. These developments left their trace on the early modern theatre, where laughter was retailed as a commodity in an emerging entertainment industry. Shakespeare ́s plays both reflect and shape these changes, particularly in his adaptation of the Erasmian wise fool as a stage figure, and in the sceptical strain of thought that is encapsulated in the laughter evoked in the plays.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Love’s Laughing at Me is a true story of a bright, beautiful young woman with an incredible knack for choosing the wrong men. Preyar has a special affinity for charmers, womanizers and commitment-phobes. Her journey through hilarious hook-ups and cringe-worthy break-ups spans from her teen years into her thirties. The more she chases love, the more elusive it becomes. Each disastrous date tests both her sense of humor and sense of self. Rather than pining for a man to choose her, she resolves to simply fall more and more in love with herself.
