Book Condition: New. In this third volume of Gregory Maguire's series following Wicked and Son of a Witch, we return to his wildly reimagined Oz, seen now through the eyes of the Cowardly Lion. "Hardly more than a kitten. I had thought to call it Prrr, but it shivers more oen than it purrs, so I call it Brrr instead," said Elphaba, the Wicked Witch of the West, who had an early hand in the Lion's fate. Years later, having helped Dorothy defeat Elphaba, and with civil war in Oz looming, Brrr must find the ancient oracle Yackle to learn what he can of the secrets of Elphaba's power. Fans of Maguire's darker, more complex Oz will not be disappointed with this installment, as Brrr also learns much about his own past and his destiny. 312.

The winged fairies of Grimm and Andersen have brought more happiness to childish hearts than all other human creations. Yet the old time fairy tale, having served for generations, may now be classed as "historical" in the children's library; for the time has come for a series of newer "wonder tales" in which the stereotyped genie, dwarf and fairy are eliminated, together with all the horrible and blood-curdling incidents devised by their authors to point a fearsome moral to each tale.

  • Baum's Dorothy and the Power of Identity
    Pay 1 Camille Pay Baum’s Dorothy and the Power of Identity Discussions of Baum’s The Wonderful Wizard of Oz have highlighted the relationship between Dorothy as an individual and Oz as a whole. When this relationship is put into the context of change in American identity, one can see how Dorothy’s identity connects to the new- found identity of the middle-class American. Just before Baum wrote The Wizard , American identity had gone through a large shift. Because of a greater wage for the rising middle class, individuals found themselves playing a key role in their communities. Of course, there was a tension between the old American identity and the new American identity; and, dealing with this tension became the duty of authors (“American” 27.) Even as this change in identity was present, critics chose to focus on the political impact of Dorothy as a character in The Wizard . Most critics see Dorothy as the beginning of political change. An example of this is the work of J. Jackson Barlow, who argues that not only did Dorothy commence Oz’s change from an uncivilized land to a civilized land, but that this change was democratic (8). David Emerson agrees that Dorothy’s influence was felt in Oz, but he thinks that Dorothy’s role is to be the “motivating will (fire)” behind her and her companions achieving their goal (5). Littlefield adds to the conversation of Barlow and Emerson by inserting that even though Dorothy was the one to produce change, Dorothy gets involved in the politics of Oz, only to leave Oz to go “home” to Kansas.

  • A Rhetorical Analysis of Wicked's Elphaba
    “IT’S JUST THAT FOR THE FIRST TIME, I FEEL… WICKED”: A RHETORICAL ANALYSIS OF WICKED’S ELPHABA USING KENNETH BURKE’S GUILT-PURIFICATION-REDEMPTION CYCLE by Patricia C. Foreman A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in Communication Studies at Liberty University May 2013 Foreman 2 Acknowledgements First and foremost, to “my Dearest, Darlingest Momsy and Popsicle,” and to my brother Gary, thank you so much for your constant support, encouragement, direction and love. I appreciate your words of wisdom and advice that always seem to be just what I need to hear. To each of my fellow graduate assistants, thank you for “dancing through life” with me. Thank you for becoming not only co-workers, but also some of my best friends. To my thesis committee – Dr. William Mullen, Dr. Faith Mullen, and Dr. Lynnda S. Beavers – thank you all so much for your help. This finished thesis is, without a doubt, the “proudliest sight” I’ve ever seen, and I thank you for your time, effort and input in making this finished product a success. Finally, to Mrs. Kim, and all of my fellow “Touch of Swing”-ers, who inspired my love of the Wicked production, and thus, this study. For the long days of rehearsals, even longer nights on tour buses, and endless hours of memories that I’ll not soon forget... “Who can say if I’ve been changed for the better? I do believe I have been changed for the better. And because I knew you, I have been changed for good.” Foreman 3 In Memory Of… Lauren Tuck May 14, 1990 – September 2, 2010 “It well may be that we will never meet again in this lifetime, so let me say before we part, so much of me is made of what I learned from you.

  • John Boorman
    13/15 John Boorman BFI Southbank to honour the director with a BFI Fellowship on 25 March followed by a career retrospective throughout April On 25 March John Boorman will be presented a BFI Fellowship – the highest accolade that the nation’s leading organisation for film can award. To mark the occasion he will be interviewed by Michel Ciment, on-stage at BFI Southbank, to launch a major retrospective of his work and to celebrate his recent 80th birthday. There will also be an Extended Run and nationwide release of Point Blank (1967) and an exhibition of artefacts from Boorman’s personal archive, on display in the Mezzanine – including a dress worn by Helen Mirren in Excalibur (1981). To complement this season there will be an exclusive run of Me and Me Dad (2011), an intimate insight of life in the Boorman family, directed by John’s daughter Katrine Boorman (who will appear in conversation on 27 March, following a preview of her film). According to Philip French, John Boorman is ‘one of the greatest filmmakers this country has produced’. He began his career as a documentary director for the BBC with Citizen 63 (BBC, 1963) and The Newcomers (BBC, 1964), and this season will feature these early works and follow his varied filmmaking career to date. His first feature film, Catch Us If You Can (1965), was a showcase for the Dave Clark Five and caught the attention and support of Pauline Kael. It was followed by The Quarry: Portrait of a Man as a Parylsed Artist (BBC, 1966), inspired by Fellini’s 8½ and events in Boorman’s own life.

The Fountain of Oblivion To My Readers Curiously enough, in the events which have taken place in the last few years in our "great outside world," we may find incidents so marvelous and inspiring that I cannot hope to equal them with stories of The Land of Oz. However, "The Magic of Oz" is really more strange and unusual than anything I have read or heard about on our side of The Great Sandy Desert which shuts us off from The Land of Oz, even during the past exciting years, so I hope it will appeal to your love of novelty.

In A Lion Among Men, the third volume in Maguire’s acclaimed, New York Times bestselling series The Wicked Years, a fuller, more complex Cowardly Lion is brought to life and gets to tell his remarkable tale. It is a story of oppression and fear in a world gone mad with war fever—of Munchkins, Wizards, and Wicked Witches—and especially of a gentle soul and determined survivor who is truly A Lion Among Men. {4.25 stars}ALAM doesnt have quite the impact of WICKED, but that is to be expected, WICKED being the first of the tetralogy which laid out Maguires entire alternate mythos of Oz. Still, this third book holds its own in the series. The characterization of the Brrr the Cowardly Lion is keen: Hes not cowardly, just thoughtfully indecisive, ambivalent about loyalties, and subject to blame no matter what he does, qualities often confused with cowardice. His low status as an Animal in Ozs caste system has obvious parallels in our world.
