Book Description
Abigail Townsend longs for the type of excitement she reads about in her beloved books. She knows she won’t find anything remotely resembling an adventure at any of the stuffy events of the ton, so she sets out to find one of her own. Shane MacLeod is a man of many talents and titles. He’s a Highlander, a ship captain, and a member of the Knights Templar. When he sets out to sea bound for an important meeting of Templars, he realizes too late the lad his cook hired is a girl. And when that girl turns out to be an earl’s daughter, he soon adds “husband” to his list of titles. Forced into a temporary marriage with the bold and handsome Highlander, Abigail has no interest in remaining as virtuous as the honorable Shane would have her stay. But as Shane’s resolve weakens, an old family enemy seeks to destroy any happiness Shane might find with his new bride. Each book in the Rogue series is a standalone story that can be enjoyed in any order. Series Order: Book 1: Rogue of the Highlands Book 2: Rogue of the Isles Book 3: Rogue of the Borders Book 4: Sister of Rogues Book 5: Rogue of the High Seas Book 6: Rogue of the Moors

The Origins of the Chinese Nation
Author: Nicolas Tackett
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1108186920
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 349
Book Description
In this major new study, Nicolas Tackett proposes that the Northern Song Dynasty (960–1127) witnessed both the maturation of an East Asian inter-state system and the emergence of a new worldview and sense of Chinese identity among educated elites. These developments together had sweeping repercussions for the course of Chinese history, while also demonstrating that there has existed in world history a viable alternative to the modern system of nation-states. Utilising a wide array of historical, literary, and archaeological sources, chapters focus on diplomatic sociability, cosmopolitan travel, military strategy, border demarcation, ethnic consciousness, and the cultural geography of Northeast Asia. In this ground breaking new approach to the history of the East Asian inter-state system, Tackett argues for a concrete example of a pre-modern nationalism, explores the development of this nationalism, and treats modern nationalism as just one iteration of a phenomenon with a much longer history.

Border Bandits
Author: Camilla Fojas
Publisher: University of Texas Press
ISBN: 0292781954
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 251
Book Description
The southern frontier is one of the most emotionally charged zones in the United States, second only to its historical predecessor and partner, the western frontier. Though they span many genres, border films share common themes, trace the mood swings of public policy, and shape our cultural agenda. In this examination, Camilla Fojas studies how major Hollywood films exploit the border between Mexico and the United States to tell a story about U.S. dominance in the American hemisphere. She charts the shift from the mythos of the open western frontier to that of the embattled southern frontier by offering in-depth analyses of particular border films, from post-World War II Westerns to drug-trafficking films to contemporary Latino/a cinema, within their historical and political contexts. Fojas argues that Hollywood border films do important social work by offering a cinematic space through which viewers can manage traumatic and undesirable histories and ultimately reaffirm core "American" values. At the same time, these border narratives delineate opposing values and ideas. Latino border films offer a critical vantage onto these topics; they challenge the presumptions of U.S. nationalism and subsequent cultural attitudes about immigrants and immigration, and often critically reconstruct their Hollywood kin. By analyzing films such as Duel in the Sun, The Wild Bunch, El Norte, The Border, Traffic, and Brokeback Mountain, Fojas demands that we reexamine the powerful mythology of the Hollywood borderlands. This detailed scrutiny recognizes that these films are part of a national narrative comprised of many texts and symbols that create the myth of the United States as capital of the Americas.
