As a result of interdisciplinary study, particularly in the area of cultural geography and map making, I found new ways to explore ideas about Cornwall‘s heritage, her undermined landscape and expand upon issues raised in my MA dissertation. Recognising the instability and partiality of maps provided insight and mapping became method as newly revealed pathways and subtly shifting perspectives inspired fresh narratives which challenge stereotypical images of Cornwall and reveal the sometimes dark realities of rurality. The more personal narratives in this collection reveal a different undermined landscape: ideas about romantic constructions and inheritance led to explorations of nostalgia, memory and identity. Life events became life writing and many of these narratives reflect a search for direction and for a missing person: the artist I once was. But there are other disappearances in these narratives and the final chapter gives an account of family events that had to be recorded but which raise ethical questions that life writers cannot ignore. We must take responsibility for the way we write about vulnerable subjects and recognise what this writing tells us about ourselves: that, as Nancy K. Miller has suggested, by exposing our lives to others through life writing, we too become vulnerable subjects. The essay accompanying these narratives reflects upon process and finds ways of giving an account of the writer writing. It uncovers contemporary theories that are embedded in the narratives and I describe it as an orouboros, a creature that continuously eats its own tail. Like the text it subjects to scrutiny, the essay is a life narrative, an autobiographical act that merges creative and critical thinking and this amalgamation has been my aim since my studies began. 5 GALLERIES & DRIFT Mapping Undermined Landscapes. In 1963, I was twelve and my grandfather was sixty-two and under-manager of a coal mine on the Lancashire moors. He helped to sink the mine shaft when he was thirteen and now his job was to close the mine, to remove the pumps and flood it. He took a small party, which included my mother and me, underground to show us where he had spent his working life. We could only visit the upper levels because the lower levels of the mine were already filling with water. The thing I remember most about that day, apart from the walk into the blackness down the sloping drift, is dark water. I remember a heavy steel door in a wall and I remember standing on tip toe to see through a spyhole; I remember the light on my helmet illuminating a path across an expanse of dark water. This image returns to me in dreams but I don‘t believe my memories any more. I don‘t think that tiny light could shine so brightly and I don‘t believe any door could have held back the weight of water. Now there is no-one left alive to ask, I think I might have conjured this image from my imagination and it has become part of my personal mythology. I have chosen to begin this critical essay with an autobiographical account of a trip to a mine because, as a life writer, I recognise that the essay, like the text it reflects upon, is autobiographical. On the visit to the mine, I travelled backwards, on a journey with family into family history, via a way of work dating from the beginning of the twentieth century and deeper, through geological time to arrive at a landscape which may or may not be fictional. This journey into the heart of things is a metaphor for the experience of the life writer writing and mirrors the process of memory mining and myth making which provide the foundations for creating life narratives. The essay explores the ways memories are retrieved and how, in these juxtaposed fragments of experience, the creative imagination identifies patterns and creates new mythologies. It considers the difficulties of giving an account of this process and turns to other disciplines to provide a method. While mining provides a metaphor for memory work, cultural geography and contemporary theories about map making provide a framework for describing the

  • Complete Stories by Franz Kafka
    The Complete Stories by Franz Kafka Back Cover: "An important book, valuable in itself and absolutely fascinating. The stories are dreamlike, allegorical, symbolic, parabolic, grotesque, ritualistic, nasty, lucent, extremely personal, ghoulishly detached, exquisitely comic. numinous and prophetic." -- New York Times "The Complete Stories is an encyclopedia of our insecurities and our brave attempts to oppose them." -- Anatole Broyard Franz Kafka wrote continuously and furiously throughout his short and intensely lived life, but only allowed a fraction of his work to be published during his lifetime. Shortly before his death at the age of forty, he instructed Max Brod, his friend and literary executor, to burn all his remaining works of fiction. Fortunately, Brod disobeyed. The Complete Stories brings together all of Kafka's stories, from the classic tales such as "The Metamorphosis," "In the Penal Colony" and "The Hunger Artist" to less-known, shorter pieces and fragments Brod released after Kafka's death; with the exception of his three novels, the whole of Kafka's narrative work is included in this volume. The remarkable depth and breadth of his brilliant and probing imagination become even more evident when these stories are seen as a whole. This edition also features a fascinating introduction by John Updike, a chronology of Kafka's life, and a selected bibliography of critical writings about Kafka.

There are picturesque harbours and grand country houses set in vast acreages. There are impressive landmarks from the past such as Tintagel Castle, St Michael’s Mount and more standing stones and Neolithic sites than you can shake a stick at. They exist happily alongside the present day futuristic domes of Eden, the stately grey bulk of Tate St Ives, old Mine chimneys (sensibly bestowed with World Heritage status) and the spoil heaps of the clay pits near St Austell. 35 BEST OF CORNWALL 2020 However there is more to Cornwall’s appeal than It was clear that luck landmarks.
