An epic battle with The Order has left them scattered and deeply divided both in strategy and resolve in their struggle to become truly alive and free.Only 49 truly alive followers remain loyal to Rom. This meager band must fight for survival as The Order is focused on their total annihilation. Misunderstood and despised, their journey will be one of desperation against a new, more intensely evil Order. As the hand of this evil is raised to strike and destroy them they must rely on their faith in the abiding power of love to overcome all and lead them to sovereignty.SOVEREIGN wonderfully continues the new testament allegory that was introduced in FORBIDDEN and continued in MORTAL. This is the 3rd book in a series, the first book Forbidden I purchased not knowing this but by the end I couldnt wait to read Mortal, The last book Sovereign was not quite as compeling as the first two, but as it went on you couldnt wait to get to the end,, I loved the ending so clever how Mr. Decker ended it.The series is well worth reading but you must read them in order or you would be completely lost. There are alot of surprises in all 3 books I really enjoyed them.It explores how it is to not have feelings and what it is like to feel, Love Lust,, Joy, Peace, etc.. The emotion that is felt by all in the beginning of the series is Fear and other things are done without feelings.This series is not like the other Ted Dekker books I have read which tend to be on the dark side, It shows a different side to his writtings.

I had always wanted to be a novelist and finally got around to being serious about it when I moved to London to do a master’s degree in creative writing in 2008. In terms of the idea for the book, my grand- mother, who died really quickly after I moved to London, was a very complicated person. Nick is definitely not her, but my grandmother partially inspired the character—the idea of someone complicated who can at once be glamorous and lovely to one person and be totally suppressive to someone else. What attracted you to writing about these three decades, starting in the forties, right after the Second World War, and ending in the late sixties, before you were born? In a lot of ways, it was this idea of people trying to be individuals post–World War II, when you were not really supposed to be individ- ualistic. The world was supposed to have been made whole—everyone was better and put on a happy face.

POST-SOUL SPECULATION: AN EXPLORATION OF AFRO-SOUTHERN SPECULATIVE FICTION A Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Southern Studies The University of Mississippi by HILARY M. WORD May 2020 Copyright © Hilary M. Word 2020 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. ABSTRACT This thesis is an examination of female authored, post-soul, Afro-Southern speculative fiction. The specific texts being examined are My Soul to Keep by Tananarive Due, Stigmata by Phyllis Alesia Perry, and Sing, Unburied, Sing by Jesmyn Ward. Through exploration of these texts, I posit two large arguments. First, I posit that this thesis as a collective work illustrates how women-authored Afro-Southern speculative fiction based in the post-soul era embodies and champions womanist politics and praxis critical for liberation through speculative elements. Second, I assert that this thesis is demonstrative of how this particular type of fiction showcases the importance of specificity of setting and reflects other, often erased facets of African American identity and realities by centering the experiences of contemporary Black Southerners.

    THE RED ROOM H.G. Wells Gothic Digital Series @ UFSC FREE FOR EDUCATION The Red Room H.G. Wells (March 1896, The Idler) “I CAN assure you,” said I, “that it will take a very tangible ghost to frighten me.” And I stood up before the fire with my glass in my hand. “It is your own choosing,” said the man with the withered arm, and glanced at me askance. “Eight-and-twenty years,” said I, “I have lived, and never a ghost have I seen as yet.” The old woman sat staring hard into the fire, her pale eyes wide open. “Ay,” she broke in; “and eight-and-twenty years you have lived and never seen the likes of this house, I reckon. There’s a many things to see, when one’s still but eight-and-twenty.” She swayed her head slowly from side to side. “A many things to see and sorrow for.” I half suspected the old people were trying to enhance the spiritual terrors of their house by their droning insistence. I put down my empty glass on the table and looked about the room, and caught a glimpse of myself, abbreviated and broadened to an impossible sturdiness, in the queer old mirror at the end of the room. “Well,” I said, “if I see anything tonight, I shall be so much the wiser. For I come to the business with an open mind.” “It’s your own choosing,” said the man with the withered arm once more. I heard the faint sound of a stick and a shambling step on the flags in the passage outside.

  • Adam Floridia, Middlesex Community College
    Teaching American Literature: A Journal of Theory and Practice Spring/Summer 2010 (3:3/4) Unconsciously Completing the Canon: An Argument for The Original of Laura Adam Floridia, Middlesex Community College Perhaps the most impressive aspect of Nabokov’s prolific career— spanning six decades and numerous languages—is the fact that there is surprisingly remarkable consistency to his canon. The casual Nabokov reader will certainly notice the leitmotifs of chess, light and color, lepidoptery and various word games; the more acute Nabokov scholar, however, will note a theme, at times obvious, at times latent, always pulsing beneath the surface of his stories. Operating as the life force of his literature, sometimes this particular theme becomes obvious to both readers and characters alike, for example when all of Krug’s emotional anguish is lifted at the end of Bend Sinister thanks to the epiphany that he is merely a character. Krug’s epiphany, the overriding concern of all of Nabokov’s work, is the concept of consciousness. In Speak, Memory Nabokov begins, “The cradle rocks above an abyss, and common sense tells us that our existence is but a brief crack of light between two eternities of darkness.”1 It is this mystery of the relatively brief moment of consciousness that is one’s life that so harasses and fascinates the author and so informs his writing. He continues, “Over and over again my mind has made colossal efforts to distinguish the faintest of 1 Teaching American Literature: A Journal of Theory and Practice Spring/Summer 2010 (3:3/4) personal glimmers in the impersonal darkness on both sides of my life”1 and concedes, “Initially, I was unaware that time, so boundless at first blush, was a prison.”2 It was early in his own life that Nabokov came to this realization that life is a mere flickering of consciousness between the vast, dark voids at both ends of a human’s time on earth.

For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] Moving Beyond the Law of The Fathers Toni Morrison's Paradise Abstract You don't have to know the work of the legal theorist, Pierre Legendre, to read Toni Morrison's new novel, Paradise (Morrison 1997) but it doesn't hurt. The novel is not ostensibly about law (as one might expect, in Paradise there is no crime). Nevertheless, law is central to the novel. It is what the paradisal community rests on, the foundation of the symbolic order. It lays down what would be taken to be the inalterable places of this society and culture. Law is constitutive, what constitutes, constitutional; which as we shall see is no fortuitous analogy. Paradise is a story of foundations, or foundational myths, at the center of which is law. With unusual uncanniness, these not-so-buried themes in Morrison's work overlap with Legendre's psychoanalytically based legal theories. If his work is an explication and explanation of the symbolic function of law -- what rests in society's legal unconscious -- Morrison's novel is an illustration of it.

  • The Poor Law of Lunacy
    The Poor Law of Lunacy: The Administration of Pauper Lunatics in Mid-Nineteenth Century England with special Emphasis on Leicestershire and Rutland Peter Bartlett Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, University College London. University of London 1993 Abstract Previous historical studies of the care of the insane in nineteenth century England have been based in the history of medicine. In this thesis, such care is placed in the context of the English poor law. The theory of the 1834 poor law was essentially silent on the treatment of the insane. That did not mean that developments in poor law had no effect only that the effects must be established by examination of administrative practices. To that end, this thesis focuses on the networks of administration of the poor law of lunacy, from 1834 to 1870. County asylums, a creation of the old (pre-1834) poor law, grew in numbers and scale only under the new poor law. While remaining under the authority of local Justices of the Peace, mid-century legislation provided an increasing role for local poor law staff in the admissions process. At the same time, workhouse care of the insane increased. Medical specialists in lunacy were generally excluded from local admissions decisions. The role of central commissioners was limited to inspecting and reporting; actual decision-making remained at the local level. The webs of influence between these administrators are traced, and the criteria they used to make decisions identified. The Leicestershire and Rutland Lunatic asylum provides a local study of these relations. Particular attention is given to admission documents and casebooks for those admitted to the asylum between 1861 and 1865.

  • Five Facets of the Pentagon in the Convent of Toni Morrison's Paradise
    International Journal on Studies in English Language and Literature (IJSELL) Volume 4, Issue 3, March 2016, PP 1-9 ISSN 2347-3126 (Print) & ISSN 2347-3134 (Online) www.arcjournals.org Five Facets of the Pentagon in the Convent of Toni Morrison’s Paradise R.M.Prabha Ph.D. Scholar ManonmaniamSundaranar University Tirunelveli, Tamil Nadu [email protected] Abstract: Paradise is Toni Morrison’s seventh novel and is published in the year 1997. The structure of the novel is complex involving many characters in the historical background of Afro-American black people. The novel describes the story of a black community in 1990s in Oklahoma. The novel also discusses the way in which the community built and lived in a town called Ruby. The town was near a convent, in which five women lived together. They were happy and free from any form of oppression from the community. The novel Paradise is all about the story of the dispute between these two communities. The five women of the convent are different from each other and reach the convent for diverse reasons. The women differ from each other in their thought, deed and actions. Analysis of their personality reveals their varied nature and interestingly their traits match well with the five different types of the ‘Five Factor Model of Personality traits’ of human beings. This paper analyses the personality of these five women and discusses the unique way in which Toni Morrison has crafted these characters in such a way that it fits unerringly with the five common traits of the Personality model of human beings.
