Book Description
Welcome back to Harland Creek where there is always a mystery to solve! I’m Dove Agnew and I was settling into a routine of working at my mom’s quilt shop in the sleepy town of Harland Creek. Just my luck, on the one day I go back to church, there’s a dead body in the baptismal. It’s not just anyone, it’s Pastor John’s sister, Eleanor Simmons! Unlike the kind-hearted Pastor, Eleanor was mean as a snake and had a lot of enemies in our town. After an eye witness comes forward to point the finger at Pastor John as the number one suspect, it’s up to me, and the quilting ladies of Harland Creek and their pet goat, Petunia, to put our heads together to find the real suspect and clear the Pastor of murder charges. Never let it be said, that nothing exciting ever happens in a small town!

"Desire, Drink and Death in English Folk and Vernacular Song, 1600?900 "
Author: Vic Gammon
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351569589
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 451
Book Description
This much-needed book provides valuable insights into themes and genres in popular song in the period c. 1600-1900. In particular it is a study of popular ballads as they appeared on printed sheets and as they were recorded by folk song collectors. Vic Gammon displays his interest in the way song articulates aspects of popular mentality and he relates the discourse of the songs to social history. Gammon discusses the themes and narratives that run through genres of song material and how these are repeated and reworked through time. He argues that in spite of important social and economic changes, the period 1600-1850 had a significant cultural consistency and characteristic forms of popular musical and cultural expression. These only changed radically under the impact of industrialization and urbanization in the nineteenth century. The book will appeal to those interested in folk song, historical popular music (including church music), ballad literature, popular literature, popular culture, social history, anthropology and sociology.

Suicide and the Body Politic in Imperial Russia
Author: Susan K. Morrissey
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9781139460811
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 412
Book Description
In early twentieth-century Russia, suicide became a public act and a social phenomenon of exceptional scale, a disquieting emblem of Russia's encounter with modernity. This book draws on an extensive range of sources, from judicial records to the popular press, to examine the forms, meanings, and regulation of suicide from the seventeenth century to 1914, placing developments into a pan-European context. It argues against narratives of secularization that read the history of suicide as a trajectory from sin to insanity, crime to social problem, and instead focuses upon the cultural politics of self-destruction. Suicide - the act, the body, the socio-medical problem - became the site on which diverse authorities were established and contested, not just the priest or the doctor but also the sovereign, the public, and the individual. This panoramic history of modern Russia, told through the prism of suicide, rethinks the interaction between cultural forms, individual agency, and systems of governance.
