Book Description
—Leadership is the ability to convince followers to fight and die to enhance the leader's wealth and power. A disastrous encounter with the Danes injures Roger Martel, a Carolingian knight, and strands him on the western shore of Britannia.

Never one to avoid a fight, Roger joins them and soon finds himself accepted as the leader. Reluctantly, he takes the job while telling himself that he does so only to protect his friends, not become a great Laird himself. Unfortunately, wealth and power are seductive.

The more we have, the more we want."—Roger Martel Marked by Thor is a Rogue Knight alternate history adventure that takes place in 816, two years after the death of Charlemagne.

The Poetaster, or His Arraignment
Author: Ben Jonson
Publisher: BoD - Books on Demand
ISBN:
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 200
Book Description
"The Poetaster, or His Arraignment" by Ben Jonson is a satirical comedy that lampoons the literary and theatrical scene of Jacobean London. Set in ancient Rome, the play follows the rivalry between two poets, Horace and Crispinus, who vie for fame and recognition in the court of Emperor Augustus. Jonson uses the characters of Horace and Crispinus to satirize contemporary figures in the London literary world, including himself and his fellow playwrights. Through witty dialogue and biting humor, Jonson skewers the pretensions and vanities of those involved in the arts, as well as the political intrigues of the time. At the heart of the play is the character of Tucca, a swaggering braggart who serves as a parody of the Elizabethan stage clown. Tucca's antics add to the play's comedic elements and provide a colorful contrast to the more serious themes of artistic integrity and cultural criticism.
