Raven's Crowne
Author: Joni Mack Weed
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 059518572X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
Talented young architect David Gordon suffers severe migraine headaches and visits a psychologist to learn self-hypnosis for pain management. During his next brutal attack, he experiments with the new therapy, but something goes horribly wrong. He is transported through shared DNA into the mind of a 12th-century ancestor, likewise a migraineur. An avid genealogist, David knows the immediate future of these people. He decides to warn the youth that an ally will betray and kill his father to steal the fertile lands of Raven’s Crowne, located in the Scottish Borders. When the prophecy comes true, the boy and his brother seek sanctuary with a sympathetic Knights Templar preceptor with secrets of his own. The battle for justice involves a withered seer and her young protégé, a wily bishop with little tolerance for the old ways she favors, and the ailing King of Scots. Can bonds of honor and love defeat an implacable and devious enemy? David Gordon worries that contact with the remote past might affect the future, but he must obtain his ancestors’ help in returning to his own body and time—without leaving an indelible, and perhaps disastrous, mark on history.

Figures of Fantasy
Author: Susanna Paasonen
Publisher: Peter Lang
ISBN: 9780820476070
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 316
Book Description
Figures of Fantasy explores the popularization of the idea of the Internet as a «cyberspace» and considers the implications this has for discussions of gender and identity. The book analyzes the standard figures used to conceptualize and explain technology and gender, and traces the ways in which these concepts have served to create the figure of the Internet as a cyberspace - a manner of thinking that has come to dominate Internet research internationally, making visible its historicity, limitations, and implications. Figures of Fantasy offers an innovative theoretical approach to Internet research, and provides a highly original, systematic critique of the canonical works in the field.

Women, Gender, and Technology
Author: Mary Frank Fox
Publisher: University of Illinois Press
ISBN: 0252055659
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 218
Book Description
An interdisciplinary investigation of the co-creation of gender and technology Each of the ten chapters in Women, Gender, and Technology explores a different aspect of how gender and technology work--and are at work--in particular domains, including film narratives, reproductive technologies, information technology, and the profession of engineering. The volume's contributors include representatives of over half a dozen different disciplines, and each provides a novel perspective on the foundational idea that gender and technology co-create one another. Together, their articles provide a window on to the rich and complex issues that arise in the attempt to understand the relationship between these profoundly intertwined notions.

Anthology of Georgian Poetry
Author:
Publisher: Snova Books
ISBN:
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 254
Book Description
Nature and history have combined to make Georgia a land of poetry. Glistening peaks, majestic forests, sunny valleys, crystalline streams clamouring in deep gorges have a music of their own, which heard by the sensitive ear tends to breed poetic thought; while the incessant struggle of the Georgians against foreign invaders -- Persians, Arabs, Mongols, Turks and others -- has bred in them a sense of chivalry and a deep patriotism which found expression in many a lay, ballad and poem. Now the treasures of Georgian literature have been translated from Georgian into English exquisitely by Venera Urushadze. This anthology, without pretending to be complete, aims at including the specimens of the varied poetry of the Georgian people from the beginning of its development till modern times.
