Sinopse

Horror Components explores the captivating yet terrifying nature of horror narratives by dissecting the psychological mechanisms and structural elements that make them effective. It investigates how horror films trigger primal responses, exploiting vulnerabilities through suspense, surprise, and even disgust. The book also analyzes narrative components, such as plot development and character design, as crucial elements for creating lasting horror experiences. This book uniquely emphasizes the interplay between psychological principles and narrative strategies. It moves beyond cataloging horror tropes to explain why they are effective, providing valuable insights for writers. For example, the book looks at the uncanny valley and fear conditioning. The book progresses by first introducing the psychological foundations of horror, including the role of empathy. Then it delves into the structural elements of horror narratives, such as plot archetypes. Finally, it synthesizes these concepts, offering practical guidelines for crafting effective horror narratives and analyzing specific examples from film and television.

    Plus-size fashion revolutionizes the way women view themselves and their bodies. By honoring our progress so far, The Power of Plus launches the next stage of the plus-size fashion movement. 
    Exclusivity runs within the foundation of fashion. While calls for diversity have intensified recently, long-held attitudes are only beginning to change. But through social media, plus-size people have been able to create strong communities that show them to be confident, strong, and beautiful. 
    Plus-size fashionistas have been writing their own narrative for the past two decades, creating a market all on their own that is now worth more than $21 billion dollars. The Power of Plus features interviews with trailblazers such as Tess Holliday, Hunter McGrady, Gabi Gregg, and more, as it follows the evolution of plus-size fashion from its start on small blogs to its current boom, examines the way this market has changed women’s relationships with their bodies, and predicts how plus-size fashion is integral to the future success of the industry. 
    Plus-size fashion is not a PR stunt. It is a culture-changing market created by and for the women and men who have always deserved to feel stylish but never had the visibility to be … until now.

    Mary Beale (1633–1699) was one of the earliest professional women artists in Britain. Her successful career was documented by her husband, Charles, whose almanacks provide a unique record of Mary's patrons, painting technique and family affairs. Her portraits of politicians, clergy, aristocracy and intellectuals reflect the vibrant literary, scientific and political scene of the seventeenth century. She has been seen as a feminist icon not only as a professional artist but also as a poet and the author of a Discourse on Friendship (1667) which argued for the equality of husband and wife in marriage – a radical concept at that time.
    This new edition includes newly documented paintings by Mary Beale that have come to light since the first edition was published in 2019.

    Great Expectations

    In this unflaggingly suspenseful story of aspirations and moral redemption, humble, orphaned Pip, a ward of his short-tempered older sister and her husband, Joe, is apprenticed to the dirty work of the forge but dares to dream of becoming a gentleman. And, indeed, it seems as though that dream is destined to come to pass — because one day, under sudden and enigmatic circumstances, he finds himself in possession of "great expectations." In telling Pip's story, Dickens traces a boy's path from a hardscrabble rural life to the teeming streets of 19th-century London, unfolding a gripping tale of crime and guilt, revenge and reward, and love and loss. Its compelling characters include Magwitch, the fearful and fearsome convict; Estella, whose beauty is excelled only by her haughtiness; and the embittered Miss Havisham, an eccentric jilted bride. 
    Great Expectations, written in Dickens' final decade of life, received widespread acclaim and worldwide admiration. It was his final great novel, and many critics consider it to be his best. Readers and critics alike commended it for its excellent plot, which rises above the melodrama of some of his earlier works, as well as its three-dimensional, psychologically realistic characters, which are far deeper and more engaging than the one-note caricatures of earlier novels. "In none of his other works," noted the reviewer in the 1861 Atlantic, "does he evince a shrewder insight into real life, and a cheaper perception and knowledge of what is called the world." 
     Swinburne thought the novel was the best in all of English fiction, with flaws "as nearly imperceptible as spots on the sun or shadows on a sunlit sea." Shaw considered it Dickens' "most completely perfect book." This low-cost edition encourages current readers to experience Dickens' timeless masterwork, which is brimming with colorful characters, unexpected narrative twists, and Dickens' vivid depiction of mid-Victorian England.
