Book Description
Four hundred years ago a plague befell the world. It warped the bodies of all organic things and drove both man and beast rabid during the night. Law and order vanished in a matter of days, along with most of the human race. Years passed and from this madness rose the Tyrants, a brutal god-like sect of individuals who could enforce their will on the surviving dregs of humanity. With their tyranny, they brought order back into the world and established settlements. A convoluted semblance of civilization began aided by the magic of Necromancy, to raise those butchered in the night, and Hemomancy, to heal their injuries. In Umbras, domain of the Tyrant Lock-And-Key, all humans are imprisoned at night where they cannot harm others or the city. Beyond that however, Lock-And-Key does little to interfere with the lives of her subjects. They live and bide with a tentative happiness in the enforced peace her presence brings, until, in the dark of one night, a stranger comes to Umbras.

Horizons Blossom, Borders Vanish
Author: Anna Elena Torres
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 0300274688
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 465
Book Description
A bold recovery of Yiddish anarchist history and literature Spanning the last two centuries, this fascinating work combines archival research on the radical press and close readings of Yiddish poetry to offer an original literary study of the Jewish anarchist movement. The narrative unfolds through a cast of historical characters, from the well known—such as Emma Goldman—to the more obscure, including an anarchist rabbi who translated the Talmud and a feminist doctor who organized for women’s suffrage and against national borders. Its literary scope includes the Soviet epic poemas of Peretz Markish, the journalism and modernist poetry of Anna Margolin, and the early radical prose of Malka Heifetz Tussman. Anna Elena Torres examines Yiddish anarchist aesthetics from the nineteenth-century Russian proletarian immigrant poets through the modernist avant-gardes of Warsaw, Chicago, and London to contemporary antifascist composers. The book also traces Jewish anarchist strategies for negotiating surveillance, censorship, detention, and deportation, revealing the connection between Yiddish modernism and struggles for free speech, women’s bodily autonomy, and the transnational circulation of avant-garde literature. Rather than focusing on narratives of assimilation, Torres intervenes in earlier models of Jewish literature by centering refugee critique of the border. Jewish deportees, immigrants, and refugees opposed citizenship as the primary guarantor of human rights. Instead, they cultivated stateless imaginations, elaborated through literature.

Incomparable Realms
Author: Jeremy Robbins
Publisher: Reaktion Books
ISBN: 1789145384
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 368
Book Description
A sumptuous history of Golden Age Spain that explores the irresistible tension between heavenly and earthly realms. Incomparable Realms offers a vision of Spanish culture and society during the so-called Golden Age, the period from 1500 to 1700 when Spain unexpectedly rose to become the dominant European power. But in what ways was this a Golden Age, and for whom? The relationship between the Habsburg monarchy and the Roman Catholic Church shaped the period, with both constructing narratives to bind Spanish society together. Incomparable Realms unpicks the impact of these two historical forces on thought and culture and examines the people and perspectives such powerful projections sought to eradicate. The book shows that the tension between the heavenly and earthly realms, and in particular the struggle between the spiritual and the corporeal, defines Golden Age culture. In art and literature, mystical theology and moral polemic, ideology, doctrine, and everyday life, the problematic pull of the body and the material world is the unacknowledged force behind early modern Spain. Life is a dream, as the title of Calderón’s famous play of the period proclaimed, but there is always a body dreaming it.

Pages : 208
Book Description
White people are the benefactors of the ill-gotten gains by their ancestors through slavery, and land grabs/theft of the Americas and Australia. The insidious slave trade and slavery machinery saw the sweat and bloodshed of black people and Red Indians who were and still are the true Israelites, according to Jeremiah 14:2 (KJV), Jeremiah 8:21 (KJV), Song of Solomon 1:5 (KJV), Job 30:30 (KJV), and Lamentation 4:8 (KJV). The so-called African Americans and the blacks from Latin America and West Indies, Red Indians, Aborigines, and some of the blacks in Africa are the true Israelites, according to Deuteronomy 28:68 (KJV), not the so-called white Jews in Israel today. They are just imposters, or should I say in a more polite tone, they are converts who adopted the religion of Judaism, not the true Israelites according to the Bible. Yes, it does matter; such truth always matters. That is why it was hidden from us, and our schools will never teach you that truth because it serves the status quo. What I am talking about is written in the Tanakh, the so-called white Jewish Bible. This is the greatest secret of the centuries, revealed by God himself to his people. Do not hate the messenger but the Creator who sent the messenger. Do not believe me; do your own research. Thanks be to Jah, the Most High God, that most of us can read and write in this generation. We should use that gift wisely and not take it for granted. Do your own research; the Bible tells us to seek and we shall find. When I started, I did not expect to find out that Israelites are blacks, Aborigines, and Red Indians. It was a shock to me, but I could not deny the facts, Gods facts.
