DK: A History of Horror, Fear, and the
Uncanny

A History of Horror, Fear, and the Uncanny

Environmental Cultures

Magic, Literature and Climate Pedagogy in a Time of Ecological Crisis

It is said a legend is just a beautiful lie... In the second half of the first millennium, the legends say that London disappeared for over four hundred years. We know almost nothing about what happened during that time. But if we could shine a light on the city's ruined walls, we would be in for a shock. The Romans are long forgotten. It is now King Scarabold who rules what little remains of the city, together with his over-entitled daughter Giniva, her effete brother Leperdandy and their wayward, lunatic relatives - all squabbling and fighting amongst themselves for the future of their corrupted dynasty while trying to hide their most terrible secret. And ranged against Scarabold is a horde of bitter enemies from both without and within his dysfunctional household - the eerie Sheathwing, Lord Carapace Earl of Beetles, the warlike nuns of Étranges Cadeaux, a primate called M'Lin, Orobus the serpent, the terrifying Mater Moribund and the sinister child-spies Spackle and Peut - united in their desire to bring king's troubled reign to a bloody end. But the arrival of a mysterious outsider into the midst of the beleaguered Scarabold's snake-pit of a court that seems to offer a semblance of hope. The stranger's name is Watborn and he is a birdcatcher - strong, silent, he will infiltrate the royal family for a purpose that is all of his own . . . As fiendishly-armed warriors gather beneath the walls, the battle for London, its body and its soul as much as its bricks and mortar, is about to begin - and who will be left unscathed at the field's end?

Myths and Symbols in Indian Art and Civilization

From "one of the greatest storytellers we have" (Robert Bly),&nbsp; an invitation to allow the oldest stories--and the Greatest Story--to reshape our own. There's an old Celtic belief that if you aren’t wrapped in the cloak of story you are liable to experience huge rushes of angst as you age. You are, in some grievous way, unprepared for what the world will hurl at you. You remain adolescent, stuck, unable to act or to rest. In Liturgies of the Wild, acclaimed mythographer, storyteller, and Christian thinker Martin Shaw proposes that we look to the “ancient technologies” the myths and initiatory rites for help achieving maturity and wholeness. Drawing on his experience as a guide for wilderness rites of passage, Shaw teaches you to read a myth the way it wants to be read; provides vivid retellings of tales powerful enough to carry you through life’s travails; and shows you how to gather and reshape your own thrown-away stories. Most vividly, he shares how these ancient technologies led him—unexpectedly—to Christ, “the True Myth,” by way of a thirty-year journey and a 101-night vigil in a Dartmoor forest. Combining scholarly erudition with earthy storytelling in the tradition of C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien, Liturgies of the Wild is an invitation to let the great myths make us more fully human.

Very Short Introductions

An area of explosive interest and growth, oral history is a complex discipline not just sequestered to storytelling. The interview is a complex combination of strategy and flexibility, remembering and forgetting, narrative and silence, and cannot escape individual biases and perspectives. This book offers readers a comprehensive and concise overview of oral history from one of the most important figures in the field.

Finding Albion

"For the first time, with this three-volume companion, students can access the full literary and historical significance of the Aeneid in translation through a commentary that unpicks Virgil's literary techniques, structural forms and historical resonances. Written by an experienced teacher and expert on the Aeneid this is an authoritative and accessible guide to students and non-specialists in Latin literature alike. Volume 1 contains a broad contextual introduction; the commentary on Books 1-6 are in Volume 2; and the commentary to Books 7-12 are in Volume 3"--

With this three-volume companion, students can access the full literary and historical significance of the Aeneid in English through an accessible yet authoritative line-by-line commentary. Written by an experienced teacher and expert on the Aeneid, this guide unpicks Virgil's literary techniques, structural forms and historical resonances. The line-by-line commentary in this Volume 3 focuses on two central translations of the Aeneid Books 7-12 (in verse by Robert Fagles and in prose by David West). Tanfield helps you understand the choices that translators make as they decide how to craft their own particular readings of the Aeneid. Plus, this companion includes extensive explanatory notes, context and a wide range of scholarly critique to ensure you have everything you need in one place. For a broad contextual introduction to the poem and its author, Volume 1 is available separately.

A Companion to the Aeneid in Translation: Volume 3

Big Book of Ghost Stories

Washington gained statehood on November 11, 1889, making it one of the newer states and yet, the land that comprises the Evergreen State has been inhabited for centuries. Long before Europeans came to North America, indigenous people were living here in present day Washington's dense rich forests and coastal regions for at least 4,000 years. That in itself gives rise to a lot of ghostly tales.
