The Shadow of Creusa Negotiating Fictionality in Late Antique Latin Literature

The Shadow of Creusa Negotiating Fictionality in Late Antique Latin Literature
Anders Cullhed, "The Shadow of Creusa"
English | 2015 | pages: 727 | ISBN: 3110310864, 3110559242 | PDF | 4,3 mb
Anders Cullhed's study The Shadow of Creusa explores the early Christian confrontation with pagan culture as a remote anticipation of many later clashes between religious orthodoxy and literary fictionality. After a careful survey of Saint Augustine's critical attitudes to ancient myth and poetry, summarized as a long drawn-out farewell, Cullhed examines other Late Antique dismissals as well as appropriations of the classical heritage. Macrobius, Martianus Capella and Boethius figure among the Late Antique intellectuals who attempted to save or even restore the old mythology by means of allegorical representation. On the other hand, pious poets such as Paulinus of Nola and Bible epic writers such as Iuvencus or Avitus of Vienne turned against pagan lies, and the mighty arch-bishop of Milan, Saint Ambrose, played off unconditional Christian truth against the last Roman strongholds of cultural pluralism. Thus, The Shadow of Creusa elucidates a cultural conflict which was to leave traces all through the Middle Ages and reach down to our present day.

The Politics of Surviving How Women Navigate Domestic Violence and Its Aftermath

The Politics of Surviving How Women Navigate Domestic Violence and Its Aftermath
Paige Sweet, "The Politics of Surviving: How Women Navigate Domestic Violence and Its Aftermath"
English | ISBN: 0520377702 | 2021 | 340 pages | EPUB | 6 MB
For women who have experienced domestic violence, proving that you are a "good victim" is no longer enough. Victims must also show that they are recovering, as if domestic violence were a disease: they must transform from "victims" into "survivors." Women's access to life-saving resources may even hinge on "good" performances of survivorhood. Through archival and ethnographic research, Paige L. Sweet reveals how trauma discourses and coerced therapy play central roles in women's lives as they navigate state programs for assistance. Sweet uses an intersectional lens to uncover how "resilience" and "survivorhood" can become coercive and exclusionary forces in women's lives. With nuance and compassion, The Politics of Surviving

The Pivot of Power Australian Prime Ministers and Political Leadership, 1949-2016

The Pivot of Power Australian Prime Ministers and Political Leadership, 1949-2016
Paul Strangio, "The Pivot of Power: Australian Prime Ministers and Political Leadership, 1949-2016"
English | ISBN: 0522868746 | 2017 | 384 pages | EPUB | 3 MB
The prime ministership remains the main prize in Australian politics, but it is a precarious one. Leadership turnover in recent years has seen more prime ministers rise and fall than at any time since the decade after federation. What explains this volatility? The Pivot of Power is the second volume in a unique blend of collective biography and institutional history that shows the skills, limitations and passions of incumbents are only part of the story. The ways in which prime ministers thrive and fail are influenced by the resources at their command, the evolving nature of the parties they lead, the daunting public expectations they face under a relentless media gaze, and the challenges that history throws at them. Recent changes in these areas have had a destabilising effect and made the role of prime minister more onerous than ever.After decades of strong national leadership, the office has rarely seemed quite so confounding as it does for its contemporary holders. The Pivot of Power explains how this has come about. And its rich account of prime-ministerial fortune since the mid-twentieth century yields historical lessons for overcoming the current malaise.

The Performance of Self Ritual, Clothing, and Identity During the Hundred Years War

The Performance of Self Ritual, Clothing, and Identity During the Hundred Years War
Susan Crane, "The Performance of Self: Ritual, Clothing, and Identity During the Hundred Years War"
English | 2002 | pages: 283 | ISBN: 081221806X | PDF | 21,8 mb
Medieval courtiers defined themselves in ceremonies and rituals. Tournaments, Maying, interludes, charivaris, and masking invited the English and French nobility to assert their identities in gesture and costume as well as in speech. These events presumed that performance makes a self, in contrast to the modern belief that identity precedes social performance and, indeed, that performance falsifies the true, inner self. Susan Crane resists the longstanding convictions that medieval rituals were trivial affairs, and that personal identity remained unarticulated until a later period.
