Sinopse

Epic Verse Structure explores the intricate architecture of classical epics like the Iliad, Odyssey, and Aeneid, revealing how these ancient stories continue to captivate audiences. The book argues that appreciating the artistry of epic verse enhances our understanding of the epics' themes, characters, and cultural context. It delves into the strategic use of rhetorical techniques, such as vivid similes and dramatic speeches, which amplify emotional impact, and recurring thematic patterns, like heroic journeys and divine intervention, which explore universal human experiences. 

 
The book examines meter, rhetorical techniques, and thematic patterns within the historical and social context of ancient Greece and Rome, showing how epic poetry served as a vehicle for cultural transmission and moral instruction. Did you know that the specific metrical pattern of dactylic hexameter shaped the rhythm and flow of these works, influencing both the oral tradition and written form? 

 
The book progresses from fundamental concepts of meter and rhythm to detailed analysis of rhetorical devices and thematic patterns, culminating in a discussion of epic verse's influence on later literature.

    Ayrshire has a rich and varied history. The region has been inhabited from earliest times, as the remains of duns, cairns and barrows show. In the medieval period it played a key role in the emergence and consolidation of a unified Scotland, and it was from one of Ayrshire's many powerful families that the Stewart line of kings emerged. From this period there remain many castles and tower-houses. In more recent times, great houses such as Culzean were rebuilt by the finest architects of their day, and there are a number of important sites dating from the Industrial Revolution.
    This book is both a narrative history and a guidebook featuring maps and plans as well as a detailed gazetteer enabling the visitor to locate and fully appreciate the many sites described.

    “In this incredibly courageous expose,” Vietnam veterans discuss the long-lasting effects of PTSD and their strategies for coping (Publishers Weekly). Though much has been written about the short-term experience of combat trauma, very few resources discuss how that trauma continues to impact individuals into later life. In this volume, retired Army Chaplain James D. Johnson relates how fifteen Vietnam veterans have been affected by the terror they experienced four decades ago, and how it continues to affect them today.   With candor and vivid detail, they reveal how their combat trauma symptoms still infect their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors on a daily basis. Their stories offer valuable insight for today’s soldiers returning from battle, as well as for their loved ones. The experiences shared here can help them address and cope with the ongoing challenges of PTSD.   Those who still carry these wounds will find that they are not alone, and that there are ways of dealing with the horror, no matter how long ago it took place.

    Manifesting Justice - Wrongly...

    Valena Beety, Koa Beck

    When Valena Beety first became a federal prosecutor, her goal was to protect victims, especially women, from cycles of violence. What she discovered was that not only did prosecutions often fail to help victims, they frequently relied on false information, forensic fraud, and police and prosecutor misconduct. 
     
     
      
    Seeking change, Beety began working in the Innocence Movement, helping to free factually innocent people through DNA testing and criminal justice reform. Manifesting Justice focuses on the shocking story of Beety's client Leigh Stubbs—a young, queer woman in Mississippi, convicted of a horrific crime she did not commit because of her sexual orientation. Beety weaves Stubbs's harrowing narrative through the broader story of a broken criminal justice system. 
     
     
      
    Drawing on interviews with both innocence advocates and wrongfully convicted women, along with Beety's own experiences as an expert litigator and a queer woman, Manifesting Justice provides a unique outsider/insider perspective. Beety expands our notion of justice to include not just people who are factually innocent, but those who are over-charged, pressured into bad plea deals, and over-sentenced. The result is a riveting and timely book that will transform our very ideas of crime and punishment, what innocence is, and who should be free.
