Beschreibung

In her evocative novel, "Belle Powers' Locket," Joanna H. Mathews intricately weaves a tale set against the backdrop of the American South during the tumultuous years of the Reconstruction era. Through rich, lyrical prose and vivid imagery, Mathews explores themes of identity, memory, and resilience, as the protagonist, Belle, grapples with her family's legacy and the societal upheaval around her. The narrative is imbued with a sense of authenticity, drawing from historical events and cultural nuances that provide a compelling context for Belle's personal journey of self-discovery and empowerment. Joanna H. Mathews, a scholar of American literature and a deeply engaged historian, has often intermingled her academic pursuits with her passion for storytelling. Her keen insights into the complexities of human relationships and the intricacies of socio-political change undoubtedly influenced her portrayal of Belle'Äôs struggles and triumphs. This background enriches the novel, enabling Mathews to infuse her characters with depth and realism, resonating with readers from diverse backgrounds. "Belle Powers' Locket" is a must-read for those interested in historical fiction that delves beneath the surface of personal and societal conflicts. Mathews invites readers to traverse the emotional landscapes alongside Belle, making it not only an enlightening exploration of history but also a deeply human story of love, loss, and the pursuit of dreams.

    A vibrant new translation of Seneca's "On the Shortness of Life," a pointed reminder to make the most of our time 
     
     
     
    Who doesn't worry sometimes that smart phones, the Internet, and TV are robbing us of time and preventing us from having a life? How can we make the most of our time on earth? In the first century AD, the Stoic philosopher Seneca the Younger offered one of the most famous answers to that question in his essay "On the Shortness of Life"—a work that has more to teach us today than ever before. In How to Have a Life, James Romm presents a vibrant new translation of Seneca's brilliant essay, plus two Senecan letters on the same theme, complete with an inviting introduction. 
     
     
     
    With devastating satiric wit, skillfully captured in this translation, Seneca lampoons the ways we squander our time and fail to realize how precious it is. We don't allow people to steal our money, yet we allow them to plunder our time, or else we give it away ourselves in useless, idle pursuits. Seneca also describes how we can make better use of our brief days and years. In the process, he argues, we can make our lives longer, or even everlasting, because to live a real life is to attain a kind of immortality.
