Author: Eric P. Caillibot
Publisher: Unrealism Books
ISBN: 199923572X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 448
Book Description
The past is forgotten, but not gone. A magical empire of grey-skinned giants erupts into civil war as Verletzt, a bold idealist, challenges the stagnant doctrine of his rulers. His iconoclast movement struggles desperately against the brutal theocrats to win freedom and lead his people to a glorious destiny. Millennia later, Kayla Freeland’s prophetic sight shows her an approaching worldwide apocalypse. The devastating threat is somehow connected to an ancient weapon, hidden elemental forces and Vertletzt’s long-vanished civilization. Racing against time, she assembles an expedition to delve into the past and solve the riddle of her visions before it is too late. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Legacy of Lethe is both sequel and prequel to “The Conquest of Kiynan” but can be read as a stand-alone book. The story is split across multiple viewpoint characters in two timelines, forced to navigate conflict, heartbreak, coming of age and magic. The threads are gradually woven together, leading to a single, thrilling conclusion.

Thomas Middleton: The Collected Works
Author:
Publisher: OUP
ISBN: 9780198185697
Category : Drama
Languages : en
Pages : 2016
Book Description
Thomas Middleton (1580-1627) - 'our other Shakespeare' - is the only other Renaissance playwright who created lasting masterpieces of both comedy and tragedy; he also wrote the greatest box-office hit of early modern London (the unique history play A Game at Chess). His range extends beyond these traditional genres to tragicomedies, masques, pageants, pamphlets, epigrams, and Biblical and political commentaries, written alone or in collaboration with Shakespeare, Webster, Dekker, Ford, Heywood, Rowley, and others. Compared by critics to Aristophanes and Ibsen, Racine and Joe Orton, he has influenced writers as diverse as Aphra Behn and T. S. Eliot. Though repeatedly censored in his own time, he has since come to be particularly admired for his representations of the intertwined pursuits of sex, money, power, and God. The Oxford Middleton, prepared by more than sixty scholars from a dozen countries, follows the precedent of The Oxford Shakespeare in being published in two volumes, an innovative but accessible Collected Works and a comprehensive scholarly Companion. Though closely connected, each volume can be used independently of the other. The Collected Works brings together for the first time in a single volume all the works currently attributed to Middleton. It is the first edition of Middleton's works since 1886. The texts are printed in modern spelling and punctuation, with critical introductions and foot-of-the-page commentaries; they are arranged in chronological order, with a special section of Juvenilia. The volume is introduced by essays on Middleton's life and reputation, on early modern London, and on the varied theatres of the English Renaissance. Extensively illustrated, it incorporates much new information on Middleton's life, canon, texts, and contexts. A self-consciously 'federal edition', The Collected Works applies contemporary theories about the nature of literature and the history of the book to editorial practice.
