Book excerpt: In this book, Marijane Osborn translates into modern English nine lively medieval verse romances, in a form that both reflects the original and makes the romances inviting to a modern audience. All nine tales contain elements of magic: shapeshifters, powerful fairies, trees that are portals to another world, and enchanted clothing and armor.

Book Synopsis Shadows of Lyonesse by : Ravek Hunter
Download or read book Shadows of Lyonesse written by Ravek Hunter and published by Dvergr Publishing LLC. This book was released on 2019-10-31 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Kingdom of Lyonesse, symbol of power and strength in the Western Kingdoms, ancient home of the mysterious druids and Temple Knights who serve in the light of Sunna. A beautiful land of rolling green hills and azure waters where people live in grace and harmony, wanting for nothing except to show kindness to their fellow countrymen. Yet beneath the fabled trusses of this happy land of plenty, a dark malevolence lurks hidden and waiting in the shadows. The beautiful dream is shattered when suddenly Lyonesse teeters on the brink of civil war, endangering the reign of the heirless royal family, and threatening the stability of the Western Kingdoms. A vile evil, born of the Infernal Planes and imprisoned for centuries, prepares to release its rage framed in violence and cruelty none have experienced since the early days of the Kingdom. It creeps behind the smiling visage of one trusted and powerful, corrupting everything that it touches, growing stronger, spreading its wicked depravity silently, unnoticed. Will chaos and evil bring boundless ruin upon the realm? Will hopeless despair, a ravaged country, and tyranny prevail? Enter Perault, a young man barely a Knight, who may unwittingly hold the key to the answers. A key that may open doors leading him to a fight for his very soul, the soul of a kingdom, the soul of a woman he loves more than life itself, and the destiny of a bloodline fated to change the course of history. Nothing is certain in this timeless battle. Except death.
Book Synopsis The Routledge History of Medieval Magic by : Sophie Page
Download or read book The Routledge History of Medieval Magic written by Sophie Page and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-01-15 with total page 769 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge History of Medieval Magic brings together the work of scholars from across Europe and North America to provide extensive insights into recent developments in the study of medieval magic between c.1100 and c.1500. This book covers a wide range of topics, including the magical texts which circulated in medieval Europe, the attitudes of intellectuals and churchmen to magic, the ways in which magic intersected with other aspects of medieval culture, and the early witch trials of the fifteenth century. In doing so, it offers the reader a detailed look at the impact that magic had within medieval society, such as its relationship to gender roles, natural philosophy, and courtly culture. This is furthered by the book’s interdisciplinary approach, containing chapters dedicated to archaeology, literature, music, and visual culture, as well as texts and manuscripts. The Routledge History of Medieval Magic also outlines how research on this subject could develop in the future, highlighting under-explored subjects, unpublished sources, and new approaches to the topic. It is the ideal book for both established scholars and students of medieval magic.

Book Synopsis Operas in English by : Margaret Ross Griffel
Download or read book Operas in English written by Margaret Ross Griffel and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2012-12-21 with total page 1015 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although many opera dictionaries and encyclopedias are available, very few are devoted exclusively to operas in a single language. In this revised and expanded edition of Operas in English: A Dictionary, Margaret Ross Griffel brings up to date her original work on operas written specifically to an English text (including works both originally prepared in English, as well as English translations). Since its original publication in 1999, Griffel has added nearly 800 entries to the 4,300 from the original volume, covering the world of opera in the English language from 1634 through 2011. Listed alphabetically by letter, each opera entry includes alternative titles, if any; a full, descriptive title; the number of acts; the composer’s name; the librettist’s name, the original language of the libretto, and the original source of the text, with the source title; the date, place, and cast of the first performance; the date of composition, if it occurred substantially earlier than the premiere date; similar information for the first U.S. (including colonial) and British (i.e., in England, Scotland, or Wales) performances, where applicable; a brief plot summary; the main characters (names and vocal ranges, where known); some of the especially noteworthy numbers cited by name; comments on special musical problems, techniques, or other significant aspects; and other settings of the text, including non-English ones, and/or other operas involving the same story or characters (cross references are indicated by asterisks). Entries also include such information as first and critical editions of the score and libretto; a bibliography, ranging from scholarly studies to more informal journal articles and reviews; a discography; and information on video recordings. Griffel also includes four appendixes, a selective bibliography, and two indexes. The first appendix lists composers, their places and years of birth and death, and their operas included in the text as entries; the second does the same for librettists; the third records authors whose works inspired or were adapted for the librettos; and the fourth comprises a chronological listing of the A–Z entries, including as well as the date of first performance, the city of the premiere, the short title of the opera, and the composer. Griffel also include a main character index and an index of singers, conductors, producers, and other key figures.

Book Synopsis Experiencing Cities by : Mark Hutter
Download or read book Experiencing Cities written by Mark Hutter and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-10-21 with total page 840 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fourth edition of Mark Hutter’s Experiencing Cities examines cities and larger metropolitan areas within a truly global framework, lending readers much to understand and appreciate about the variety of urban structures and processes and their effect on the everyday lives of people residing in cities. Beginning with the emergence of the first urban centers and continuing to examine the present day and the future of smart cities, this book explores the changing cultural and domestic character of the metropolis and offers readers a complete historical and theoretical overview of municipal life. The new edition seamlessly integrates issues of gender, race, ethnicity, sexuality, and class in its examination of city and suburban life, and further extends the Chicago School of Sociology perspective by combining its traditions with a distinct social psychological orientation derived from symbolic interaction and macro-level examination of social organization, social change, and power in the urban context. With this strong and sweeping interdisciplinary approach, the new edition of Experiencing Cities will continue to enrich students’ understandings of urban life and offer new, forward-looking perspective to those working in the fields of urban sociology, history, politics, geography, and the arts.
