lays out in intricate detail the complicated genealogy of history's most successful language."-Christine Kenneally, The New York Times Book Review "uthoritative. The Horse, the Wheel, and Language brings together the work of historical linguists and archaeologists, researchers who have traditionally been suspicious of each other's methods. Anthony is not the first scholar to make the case that Proto-Indo-European came from this region, but given the immense array of evidence he presents, he may be the last one who has to. Anthony argues that we speak English not just because our parents taught it to us but because wild horses used to roam the steppes of central Eurasia, because steppedwellers invented the spoked wheel and because poetry once had real power. Winner of the 2010 Book Award, Society for American Archaeology "David W. But that was three years ago, before her father left. :Dīittersweet by Sarah Ockler is about Hudson Avery, whose bright figure skating career is just ahead of her. Curious, I borrowed a copy from a friend and read the first few pages, and before I knew it, I was halfway through. So I wasn’t very interested to read her newest book, Bittersweet until I started reading cute reviews about it from some of my trusted reviewers. I wasn’t exactly a Sarah Ockler fan and while so many people raved about her debut, Twenty Boy Summer, I was just pretty lukewarm about it. Because in a place where opportunities are fleeting, she knows this chance may very well be her last… It’s time for Hudson to ask herself what she really wants, and how much she’s willing to sacrifice to get it. She’s got a lot on her plate, and for a girl who’s been burned before, risking it all is easier said than done. Of course, this is also the moment a cute, sweet guy walks into her life…and starts serving up some seriously mixed signals. So when things start looking up and she has another shot at her dreams, Hudson is equal parts hopeful and terrified. Now she’s a girl who doesn’t believe in second chances… a girl who stays under the radar by baking cupcakes at her mom’s diner and obsessing over what might have been. Then a betrayal changed her life, and knocked her dreams to the ground. Once upon a time, Hudson knew exactly what her future looked like. The narrative summarizes background material leading up to the present war and introduces Caesar in northern Italy. Before their falling out, while he was writing the early books of the poem, they were close friends and the first part of Nero’s reign was seen by many as ideal, peaceful and just. But Susan Braund (translator of the Oxford University Press edition of the Pharsalia) sees no reason to. Considering that Nero had Lucan killed, some critics read this as deeply ironic. Book 1 The civil war begins (695 lines)Īfter a brief introduction lamenting the idea of Romans fighting Romans there is a flattering dedication to Nero (‘to me you are already divine…you alone grant power to Roman verse’). Kline’s online translation, and then added my own observations. In this book-by-book summary of Lucan’s Pharsalia, I started with the short text summaries provided by Wikipedia, pasted in the section summaries provided by A.S.

This is reflected in his heavily researched and considered comics, heritage-based commissions and re-appropriation of vernacular typography and graphic aesthetics in his work. Here is this great little poem by Dickinson, along. He is passionate about all aspects of the graphic arts and is hugely interested in vernacular design and uncovering stories through cultural-historical archives. Poets before her had compared hope to a bird, but thing with feathers was a peculiarly Dickinsonian touch. “Hope” is the thing with feathers By Emily DickinsonĪlan is an Irish visual artist and author who works mostly in illustration, comics, graphic printmaking, papercraft, and motion graphics.

Lord of Scoundrels is a retelling of the fairytale Beauty and the Beast, with the author stating that like the Beast, Dain is an outcast and misfit among his society. As with many of her stories, Chase made her heroine a strong female, deciding to model Jessica after the type of women who lived a few generations previously and who had "a more practical, frank attitude toward sex". The son of an English father and Italian mother, Dain is hardened due to a difficult childhood and meets his match in Jessica Trent, a 27-year-old bluestocking more than capable of trading wits with him.Ĭhase had a love for Italian culture, and decided that this background would provide ample motivation for Dain, being the product of his parents' inability to understand each other's cultures. Set in 1828, the story follows the Marquess of Dain, an aristocrat known as "Lord Beelzebub" and the "Lord of Scoundrels" for his unscrupulous, immoral behavior. Published in 1995 by Avon Books, it is the third installment of her Débauchés series. Lord of Scoundrels is a Regency romance novel by American author Loretta Chase. I also found myself enjoying his way of telling the reader the time and location a part of the story was taking place by a brief bold snip- it proceeding the section. Their struggles to be treated as equal-although unique to each group-are very similar and result in historical changes.Īlthough Peloso doesn't waste precious pages delving too deeply into developing the plethora of characters that certainly make this story happen, you definitely learn enough to actually feel as though he has. In our past, groups of individuals have been treated as less than based solely on characteristics that are different than the dominating group such as women, blacks, homosexuals to name a few. Yet as I began to turn the pages-or tap the pages- and become engrossed in what I feel is a body of work that although science fiction has important parallels to the world today, I was very pleased.Īdopted Son brings readers to a significant point in our future history where a monumental civil rights movement begins because of the existence and legal acceptance of a new group of individuals-aliens born to human parents-that are not necessarily accepted by the majority despite all else. I must say that as I began to read Adopted Son by Dominic Peloso I was fearful that there was no way in the world I was going to enjoy it. |
