The Figure of Echo
Author: John Hollander
Publisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 0520414462
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 166
Book Description
In this essay on "what the imagination has made of the phenomenon of echo,” John Hollander examines aspects of the figure of echo in light of their significance for poetry. Looking at echo in its literal, acoustic sense, echo in myth, and echo as literary allusion, Hollander concludes with a study of the rhetorical status of the figure of echo and an examination of the ancient and newly interesting trope of metalepsis, or transumption, which it appears to embody. Centered on ways in which Milton's poetry echoes, and is echoed by, other texts, The Figure of Echo also explores Spenser and other Renaissance writers; romantic poets such as Keats, Shelley, and Wordsworth; and modern poets including Hardy, Eliot, Stevens, Frost, Williams, and Hart Crane. This book has implications for literary theory and holds great practical interest for students and teachers of American and English literature of all periods. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1981.

Derecho
Author: G.A. Franks
Publisher: Next Chapter
ISBN:
Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
The year is 2121 and the Earth has endured a catastrophic century of global pandemics, conflict, and climate change. All international borders are closed, and the United Kingdom is no more. There is only ‘New Britain’ — a privately-run country governed by Aloysius Kroll, the enigmatic CEO of the megacorp ‘Kaoteck’. Gideon Rayne and the surviving members of Cobra Team have discovered Kroll’s deception. The evil despot plans to use the Cobras and their powerful quantum armour to forge a new British Empire, and he’s prepared to sacrifice the entire population of New Britain in the process. The young Cobras know they must free themselves from Kroll’s grasp, but the all-seeing gaze of the company A.I. ‘ADA’ makes escape from the Kaoteck pyramid seem impossible. To make matters worse, the presence of a mysterious new class of armour-clad warrior raises questions that just might be best left unanswered. It seems the echoes of the past have caught up with Gideon — and there’s a price to be paid. Following directly on from the events of the bestselling ‘Maelstorm – Gideon Rayne Book 1’, Derecho is a gritty, action-packed adventure that twists and turns as it draws you into a breathless race against time in a world where tragedy is waiting around every corner and the stakes are impossibly high.
