Beschreibung

The anthology 'Life and Legacy of Nathaniel Hawthorne' invites readers into a rich tapestry of literary exploration, anchored by the profound and multifaceted works influenced by or engaging with the legacy of Nathaniel Hawthorne. This collection spans a diverse array of styles, from the introspective and symbolic narratives that echo Hawthorne's enchantment with the psychological and moral interiors of his characters, to essays and reflections that delve into the historical and cultural contexts of his oeuvre. The anthology highlights both renowned and understudied pieces, crafting a comprehensive portrait of the varied dialogues ignited by Hawthorne's monumental impact on American literature. Curated by a distinguished set of authors, including Herman Melville and Julian Hawthorne, this volume brings together voices that intricately weave the threads of American Romanticism through their diverse backgrounds and literary experiences. Melville's profound narrative complexity complements Julian Hawthorne's intimate perspective on his father's enduring influence. Accompanied by critical essays from F. P. Stearns and G. P. Lathrop, the collection captures a spectrum of insights that both illuminate and expand upon the historical and thematic nuances found within Hawthorne's work. Through these varied contributions, readers gain a more rounded comprehension of the broader American literary movements of the 19th century. This anthology is an invaluable resource for readers seeking to immerse themselves in a rich dialogue of literary styles and ideas pivotal to understanding Nathaniel Hawthorne's enduring legacy. The collection stands as a testament to the multiplicity of interpretations surrounding Hawthorne's work, fostering a deeper appreciation of the cultural and philosophical inquiries that his stories provoke. It presents a unique opportunity to explore interconnected themes and perspectives, offering both aficionados of Hawthorne and newcomers an enlightening journey through the artistic, historical, and ethical dimensions of his studies.

    For years, Katie Baker wore the mask of a woman who had it all together. On the surface, she was a successful professional, a loving mother, and the embodiment of relentless perseverance. But beneath that carefully crafted facade, the cracks were deepening into fractures too wide to ignore. Haunted by a childhood of instability—marked by alcoholic fathers, sexual, physical, and verbal abuse, a lack of protection, and exposure to addiction—she carried her pain like an invisible weight. Pressured by societal expectations to “buck up,” she buried her wounds under achievement and resilience, holding onto pain and shame well into her late 40s. 
    In this raw and unflinching memoir, Katie takes readers on her journey from rock bottom to radical transformation. Guided by courage and therapeutic psychedelics, she confronted the darkness she had spent a lifetime outrunning—unraveling the shame, guilt, and addiction that had stolen so much from her life. Through profound medicine journeys, she unearthed the lost pieces of herself and reclaimed the life she was meant to live. 
    But this is more than a story of healing—it’s a story of rediscovery. With vulnerability, grit, and humor, Katie reflects on the childhood that shaped her, the courage it took to rebuild, and the light that emerges when we finally face our deepest wounds. 
    For anyone who has ever struggled to find their way back to themselves, When The Universe Holds Your Hair Back is a beacon of hope, redemption, and the powerful reminder that healing is not a destination—it’s a journey home.

  • Was God Pro-Choice Or Pro-life When He Gave His Son Jesus Christ? - Abortion! What Did God Do? What Would God Do Today? - cover

    Was God Pro-Choice Or Pro-life...

    Many of us remember the saying” What would Jesus do! when one encountered a questionable situation where you were not sure of what you should do. The answer was to think of what Jesus would do and just do that. Today the world is struggling to find the answer to the question of being pro-choice or pro-life? Can and should a woman have a choice to have an abortion and end her pregnancy and the life of her unborn baby; or must she follow the law and continue the pregnancy and give birth to her baby without having any say in the matter. What would GOD DO? 
    The term pro-choice is defined by many different individuals, groups and organizations in many ways. The prevailing view is that to be pro-choice means believing that a woman has the right to choose to end her pregnancy at viability or 6 weeks and for any reason she chooses regardless of the circumstances. If the pregnancy was unplanned, or due to rape, or due to incest, or medical complications it should be the woman’s right or choice to decide to have or not have an abortion. What would GOD do? 
    Pro-life advocates believe that abortion is killing an unborn baby and can be done only if any one of the following conditions exist. The fetus cannot be older than six weeks, or the mother must be a victim of rape or incest, or if the mother’s health is at risk. What would GOD do? John 3:16 AND 17 are the most well known and most often quoted verses in the bible. In fact, most people have been "led to Jesus Christ" and begin their new lives as "Christians" by hearing a version of these words: John 3:16 reads: “for God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:17 reads: for God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. But what do these and other bible verses reveal to us about God and his position, his stance on abortion and the pro-choice or pro-life movements?

    Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin was born on 26th May 1799 in Moscow into a family of Russian nobility. 
     
    Raised by nursemaids and French tutors in French he learnt Russian only via the household staff. 
     
    He graduated from the prestigious Imperial Lyceum, near St Petersburg and plunged into the vibrant and raucous intellectual youth culture of what was then the capital of the Russian Empire.  
     
    In 1820, he published his first long poem, ‘Ruslan and Ludmila’, with much controversy about both subject and style.  Pushkin was heavily influenced by the French Enlightenment and gravitated, with other literary radicals, towards social reform angering the Government. 
     
    His early literary work and reputation was poetic and written as he travelled around the Empire or engaged himself in various rebellions against the Ottoman Empire.  A clash with his own government after his poem, ‘Ode to Liberty’, was found among the belongings of the Decembrist Uprising rebels meant two years of internal exile at his mother's rural estate.  His friends and family continually petitioned for his release, sending letters and meeting with Tsar Alexander I and then Tsar Nicholas I.   
     
    In 1825, whilst at his Mother’s estate, Pushkin wrote his most famous play, the drama ‘Boris Godunov’.  
     
    Upon meeting with Tsar Nicholas I, Pushkin obtained his release and began work as the Tsar's Titular Counsel of the National Archives.  However, because of the earlier problems the tsar retained control of everything Pushkin published, and he was banned from travelling at will. 
     
    Around 1828, Pushkin met the 16-year-old Natalia Goncharova, one of the most talked-about beauties of Moscow.  After much hesitation, Natalia accepted his marriage proposal after she received assurances that the government had no intentions to persecute the libertarian poet.  When the Tsar gave Pushkin the lowest court title, Gentleman of the Chamber, he became enraged, feeling that the Tsar intended to humiliate him. 
     
    In the year 1831, during Pushkin's growing literary influence, he met Nikolai Gogol.  Recognising his gifts Pushkin supported him and published his short stories in his own magazine ‘The Contemporary’. 
     
    By the autumn of 1836, Pushkin was falling into greater and greater debt and facing scandalous rumours that his wife was having an affair.  
     
    In January 1837, Pushkin sent a ‘highly insulting letter’ to his wife’s pursuer, Georges-Charles de Heeckeren d'Anthès.  The only answer could be a challenge to a duel. 
     
    It took place on 27th January.  D'Anthès fired first, critically wounding Pushkin; the bullet entered at his hip and penetrated his abdomen.  Two days later Alexander Pushkin died of peritonitis.  He was 37.

    'From its first paragraph almost to its last, Smith's precise, luxuriant prose style dazzles in its ability to simultaneously set off syntactical fireworks and marshall precisely into shape the considered thoughts of a lifetime's intellectual curiosity and self-reflection.' – Dylan Moore, Nation.Cymru
    A boy running around a running track in the early evening opens a memoir of candour and insight.
    From a working-class Rhondda childhood through to the glamour of Barry Grammar and onto a coveted Balliol College scholarship and study in New York, David Smith was the rising intellectual star of a generation. In this beautifully written memoir Dai Smith engages and entertains with a personal life and times with the characteristic verve of a writer who has illuminated the modern history of the people of South Wales.
