The Whalestoe Letters
Author: Mark Z. Danielewski
Publisher: Pantheon
ISBN: 0375714413
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 106
Book Description
Between 1982 and 1989, Pelafina H. Lièvre sent her son, Johnny Truant, a series of letters from The Three Attic Whalestoe Institute, a psychiatric facility in Ohio where she spent the final years of her life. Beautiful, heartfelt, and tragic, this correspondence reveals the powerful and deeply moving relationship between a brilliant though mentally ill mother and the precocious, gifted young son she never ceases to love. Originally contained within the monumental House of Leaves, this collection stands alone as a stunning portrait of mother and child. It is presented here along with a foreword by Walden D. Wyhrta and eleven previously unavailable letters.

Epistolarity in a Post-Letter World
Author: Sindija Franzetti
Publisher: Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG
ISBN: 3111158381
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
The study intervenes in a field hitherto dominated by formal and historical analyses of the literary letter. Across the five case studies, the method of reading epistolarity as a motif is applied to a selection of American novels published after 1990: Nick Bantock’s Griffin & Sabine series (1991-2016), Gordon Lish’s Epigraph (1996), Mark Dunn’s Ella Minnow Pea (2001), Marilynne Robinson’s Gilead (2004), and Louise Erdrich’s Future Home of the Living God (2017). The texts encompass considerable formal and thematic variations: Bantock seeks a return to the literary letter; Lish and Dunn test the limitations of letters for conveying individual experience to a distant other; Robinson and Erdrich envision epistolarity as an address to a future. Exploring the employment of epistolarity as a motif, the study offers an interpretation of the messages these fictions extend for readers in a post-letter world. Communication technologies and practices may change, but epistolarity as a motif - a reprise of a scene of encounter that depends on keeping a distance between addresser and addressee – remains a deeply compelling site of inquiry in twenty-first-century literature.

A Discourse Analysis of the Letter to the Hebrews
Author: Cynthia Long Westfall
Publisher: A&C Black
ISBN: 0567030520
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 353
Book Description
This study attempts to analyse the text of Hebrews with a method of discourse analysis primarily based on a form of systemic functional linguistics developed for Hellenistic Greek, but it is also informed by other linguistic studies. It begins with a general survey of the literature that is either influential or representative of approaches to the structure of Hebrews. The survey is followed by an introduction to the terminology and definitions of discourse analysis, as well as the theory behind the methodology, and describes a procedure for analysing text. Hebrews is treated as having three sections. The first section of Hebrews (1:1-4:16) demonstrates the organization of the units, the topic of the units, the prominent text, and the relationship of the first section with the rest of the discourse. The second section of Hebrews (4:11-10:25) is described in two parts (4:11-7:28 and 8:1-10:25) because of its length. There is an overlap between the first and second sections in 4:11-16 and between the second and third sections in 10:19-25. Both of these passages have a concluding function for the preceding co-text and a staging function for the following co-text, so that they look backwards and forwards. The third and final section in 10:19-13:25 contains the climax or discourse peak. The study is concluded with a description of the coherence of the discourse and a presentation of a mental representation of the text. JSNTS and Studies in New Testament Greek subseries>

The Last Letter......life, what's it all about?
Author: Roy Geoffrey Waters
Publisher: Paragon Publishing
ISBN: 1782228853
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 144
Book Description
Yes, that’s me, Roy Geoffrey Waters. Well actually it’s a photograph of a painting of me by me. But I don’t just paint myself ; I also write about myself. This book is a sort of autobiography ; it’s a collection of thoughts related to events in my life. I hope it will make you smile a bit and even think a bit every so often. I never intended to publish what I’ve written over several years but when I came to realise that I’d written so much I thought that sending it to a printer / publisher would be the simplest way to pull it all together. It’s my first and, I expect, only publication. You can see that I call myself Roy Geoffrey Waters. That’s a little unusual isn’t it, at least in the UK ? Most people would simply use one christian name and one surname. So why the Geoffrey ? Well I started including my second christian name many years ago when I opened my e-mail account with hotmail. I found that my name was not available – another Roy Waters was using it. I thought I’d get in contact with this Roy Waters and did. I live near Barcelona, Spain and the other Roy Waters ( of which there seem to be hundreds – I’m glad my name is not John Smith) lives, or at least then lived, in Dorset so, when I was in London to support my third child running the marathon, I managed to meet up with my name sake. I suppose this blurb should be encouraging you to read the book. Well I can only think of two basic reasons to read it and I’ve mentioned them above – to smile a bit and to think a bit. If you read it then enjoy it ! If you don’t read it, then be happy anyway – that’s what life is all about.
