The Gentle, Jealous God
Author: Simon Perris
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1472513010
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
Euripides' Bacchae is the magnum opus of the ancient world's most popular dramatist and the most modern, perhaps postmodern, of Greek tragedies. Twentieth-century poets and playwrights have often turned their hand to Bacchae, leaving the play with an especially rich and varied translation history. It has also been subjected to several fashions of criticism and interpretation over the years, all reflected in, influencing, and influenced by translation. The Gentle, Jealous God introduces the play and surveys its wider reception; examines a selection of English translations from the early 20th century to the early 21st, setting them in their social, intellectual, and cultural context; and argues, finally, that Dionysus and Bacchae remain potent cultural symbols even now. Simon Perris presents a fascinating cultural history of one of world theatre's landmark classics. He explores the reception of Dionysus, Bacchae, and the classical ideal in a violent and turmoil-ridden era. And he demonstrates by example that translation matters, or should matter, to readers, writers, actors, directors, students, and scholars of ancient drama.

Signs on the Earth
Author: Richard Leviton
Publisher: Hampton Roads Publishing
ISBN: 1612832970
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 474
Book Description
Virgin Mary Apparitions. UFO Sightings. Crop Circles. What do these have in common? Earth-energies expert Richard Leviton is convinced that these three seemingly distinct phenomena are all interconnected. And, he insists, the signs indicate something very real and very important is happening: we're fast approaching the end of the world as we know it--and that might not be such a bad thing. In Signs on the Earth, Leviton combines newspaper and firsthand accounts with his own intuitive research to examine the exploding number of such reports from around the world. He focuses his study by selecting a handful of Marian apparition sites, including Lourdes, Fatima, Medjugorje, and others, as well as UFO hot spots such as California's Topanga Canyon and the Hudson River Valley. For his investigation of the crop circle phenomenon, Leviton takes you Wiltshire, England, an area he calls the crop circle mecca. Encouraging you to think of the Earth as a cosmic bulletin board, Leviton believes that these phenomena are messages from the galaxy and the spiritual worlds offering us an unprecedented opportunity to enter the next level of reality. Signs on the Earth shows that these signs are literally directions to a 3-step process for looking within as well as beyond yourself, and unlocking your vast spiritual potential.
