Bloody civil war over the last habitable zones of the cosmos. Political Lines of Departure, militaristic police forces, dire threats to the Solar System…. Humanity is on the ropes, and after years of fighting a two-front war with losing odds, so is North American Defense Corps officer Andrew Grayson. He dreams of dropping out of the service one day, alongside his pilot girlfriend, but as warfare consumes entire planets and conditions on Earth deteriorate, he wonders if there will be anywhere left for them to go. After surviving a disastrous space-borne assault, Grayson is reassigned to a ship bound for a distant colony—and Lines of Departure with malcontents and troublemakers. His most dangerous battle has just begun. When dealing with a masterpiece, only the best will do. And as anyone who has read the previous two collected volumes of the ongoing series can Lines of Departure, the result has been a stunning tour de force faithful in every respect to its brilliant original. The competing teams of astronauts sent to explore the asteroid Keanu discovered it was, in fact, a giant spacecraft with an alien crew carrying a plea for help. A brave new frontier beckons. But it will come at a price. Without warning, the aliens transport small groups of humans to the vast interior habitats of Keanu. Their first challenge is to survive.

Ernest Hemingway and many of his contemporaries wrote about the conflicts that defined a lot of the early twentieth century. I will, in this thesis, look at three short stories about war by Hemingway, and compare them to how other writers and historians portray war and conflicts. Hemingway and the First World War Firstly, I would like to look at Hemingway in the context of the First World War. Hemingway famously did not get to serve in the US army, marines, or navy because of bad eyesight.

  • Entertext Volume 6 Number 2
    EnterText 6.2 EnterText volume 6 number 2 WAR AND SOCIETY Abstracts Tracy E. Bilsing, Mors ab Alto: The Dangerous Power of Women’s Images in Second World War Nose Art The depiction of women’s images on military aeroplanes became popular during World War II when soldier-artists were informally commissioned to paint pictures on planes in order to personalise the machines for the crews who flew in them. The most famous images are of playful, obviously sexualised women whose illustrated presence on the planes provided the troops with, among other things, reminders of home. Despite criticism from feminist scholars for its objectification of the feminine, nose art is a complex cultural icon which has its roots in ancient history and which appropriates sexuality as a specific form of female power during a predominantly masculine event. Frank D. Casale, W. D. Ehrhart and the Extremes of Foreign Policy, Ideology, and the American Hegemony In the years following the Vietnam War, we have seen and heard many conflicting images and stories about the meaning and importance of the conflict. Television shows such as China Beach, and movies like The Deer Hunter and Forest Gump have radically re-imaged the war and the events surrounding it. However, when we compare this modern-day myth-making, much of it engineered in Hollywood and the editorial press, with much of the literature produced by veterans of the war, a startling insight becomes apparent. While the popular media seems intent on repackaging the meaning of the war, the literature of the veterans seems intent on exploring the meaning of the war and defining the effect the war had on American consciousness.

  • The Politics of the Contemporary Alternate History Novel
    What Almost Was 63 What Almost Was: The Politics of the Contemporary Alternate History Novel Matthew Schneider-Mayerson Between August of 1995 and July of 1996, Speaker of the House of Rep- resentatives Newt Gingrich published two books. One, To Renew America, a folksy Republican polemic cobbled together from Gingrich’s speeches, served as a sequel to Contract with America, the blueprint of the conservative movement that assumed control of Congress in 1995.1 The other was 1945, coauthored with William R. Forstchen, a novel set in an alternate universe.2 In 1945’s divergent timeline, Germany does not declare war on the United States, the Soviet Union is split into fragments, and the United States and Germany have settled into a cold war. Nazi soldiers parachute into the United States to a capture a nuclear facility in Tennessee, but posses of arms-bearing American veterans successfully defend their country. 1945 was representative of the flourishing genre of alternate history novels in all but two ways: an author’s celebrity and its media exposure. Due to Gingrich’s status as the public leader of the conservative renaissance of the mid-1990s, 1945 was widely reviewed in mainstream publications. Treated as a curiosity and ridiculed for its poor literary quality, very few reviewers noted the libertarian themes in 1945, and even fewer placed it in the context of an inchoate literary genre.3 1995 can be considered the birth year of the alternate history novel as a genre. As a conceptual category, the counterfactual, as historians term their what-if narratives, has been pursued in print since classical Greece, if not earlier.
