Book Description
This was not part of my plan. Enrolling at Pacific Prep was supposed to gain me freedom and a feeling of control over my life. Buried truths are being revealed, and my goals are becoming less clear by the day. My entire life, I've wanted a family; wanted to know if I had one out there. I've craved answers and now that I'm getting them, I don't know if I'm ready. I have a brother, a family. Sadly, the knowledge of that isn't comforting, because I can't trust them. The same distrust extends to the guys that are invading every aspect of my life. Suddenly, they're everywhere, demanding the truth from my lips and tugging at a heart that's been cold for far too long. Will the truth set me free, or rip me apart? ***This book is a reverse harem, meaning the FMC will have three or more love interests. The book also has trigger warnings for bullying, violent and/or graphic scenes, dubcon, vulgar language and graphic scenes and references to self harm and past trauma.

Machiavelli in Love
Author: Guido Ruggiero
Publisher: JHU Press
ISBN: 0801898358
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 298
Book Description
Machiavelli in Love introduces a complex concept of sex and sexual identity and their roles in the culture and politics of the Italian Renaissance. Guido Ruggiero's study counters the consensus among historians and literary critics that there was little sense of individual identity and almost no sense of sexual identity before the modern period. Drawing from the works of major literary figures such as Boccaccio, Aretino, and Castiglione, and rereading them against archival evidence, Ruggiero examines the concept of identity via consensus realities of family, neighbors, friends, and social peers, as well as broader communities and solidarities. The author contends that Renaissance Italians understood sexual identity as a part of the human life cycle, something that changed throughout stages of youthful experimentation, marriage, adult companionship, and old age. Machiavelli’s letters and literary production reveal a fascinating construction of self that is highly reliant on sexual reputation. Ruggiero's challenging reinterpretation of this canonical figure, as well as his unique treatment of other major works of the period, offer new approaches for reading Renaissance literature and new understandings of the way life was lived and perceived during this time.

Describing Greece
Author: William Hutton
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521847209
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 404
Book Description
The Periegesis Hellados (Description of Greece) by Pausanias is the most important example of non-fictional travel literature in ancient Greek. With this work Professor Hutton provides the first book-length literary study of the Periegesis Hellados in nearly one hundred years. He examines Pausanias' arrangement and expression of his material and evaluates his authorial choices in light of the contemporary literary currents of the day and in light of the cultural milieu of the Roman empire in the time of Hadrian and the Antonines. The descriptions offered in the Periegesis Hellados are also examined in the context of the archaeological evidence available for the places Pausanias visited. This study reveals Pausanias to be a surprisingly sophisticated literary craftsman and a unique witness to Greek identity at a time when that identity was never more conflicted.
