Summary

Tsar Executions explores the history of regicide in Russia, from Ivan the Terrible's purges to the Romanov dynasty's tragic end, illuminating the political upheavals that followed. It examines how autocratic power and revolutionary fervor intertwined to define Russia's past. The book highlights that executions of Russian rulers weren't isolated events but symptoms of systemic failures and a volatile relationship between the Tsar and the people. For example, the assassination of Alexander II, driven by revolutionary movements, significantly altered Russia's trajectory.

 
The book progresses chronologically and thematically, starting with the evolution of Russian autocracy and delving into key periods like the Time of Troubles and Peter the Great's reforms. It investigates the circumstances, motivations, and consequences of each execution. This book is unique in its psychological exploration of both rulers who ordered executions and those who carried them out, providing a nuanced understanding of power, fear, and violence.

 
By understanding these historical executions, readers can gain insights into the fragility of power and the consequences of unchecked authority.

    As formally inventive as readers have come to expect from one of the most daring writers around, and as wild and tricky as its subject matter requires, Goblinhood: Goblin as a Mode  presents us with a series of essays and poems that playfully, artfully propound Jen Calleja's theory of 'goblinhood'——a theory that takes in all aspects of pop culture from film, tv, literature and art as well as the author's personal and original examinations of grief, lust, family histories and the physical fact of living in the world as it is.

Goblinhood  is a perpetually and variously curious, visceral addition to Calleja's remarkable oeuvre.
