Book Description
The Adams family has always carried a curse of unknown origins ever since any of them can remember. This curse is carried through the family even when twins are not born but only twins can become immortal because of it. As a result of the curse, any woman that bears twins within the family will die once the second twin is born. These twins will age until their 18th birthdays at which point they quit aging and their appearance remains that of an 18 year old man and woman. Find out what happens when Alaina and Damon Adams take on the world and adapt to the changes after living for 2000 years and manages to finally break their family's curse. Authors note: The first forty pages were cowritten by myself and one of my best friends, Logan Drexel Camden, who passed away November 17, 2019 at the young age of 25. We had originally wanted to get this book published together but since that can't happen any longer I finished it in honor of his memory. Peace in death Logan.

Time and the Crystal
Author: Robert M. Durling
Publisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 0520378725
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 501
Book Description
The Rime petrose, Dante's powerful lyrics about a woman as beautiful and as hard as a precious stone, are generally acknowledged to be an important moment in his stylistic development. In this full-length investigation of the poetics of the petrose and of their relation to TheDivine Comedy, Robert M. Durling and Ronald L. Martinez uncover new material, especially from medieval science (astrology and mineralogy), philosophy, and theology. The authors argue that the Rime petrose represent a major turning point in Dante's conception of a "microcosmic poetics" that became the fundamental mode of the Commedia. They demonstrate how Dante here attempts his first full account of his relation to the universe as a whole. This work offers many insights into the intrinsic significance of these remarkable poems and their place in Dante's development. Especially far-reaching are the implications for the interpretation of TheDivine Comedy.Time and the Crystal will interest not only students of Dante but also intellectual historians, historians of science, students of poetics and poetic theory, and all those interested in medieval literature. 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
