Bjornerud Marcia: Turning to Stone / B

Turning to Stone

The deep sea is one of humanity's last frontiers. For most of our history it has been a remote realm, invoking awe and terror as it lays shrouded in darkness. But here, where the light cannot reach, lies a strange, wonderful and breath-taking portal into Earth's past, teeming with scientific marvels and lessons for the future of life on this planet. In The Dark Frontier, marine microbiologist and expert deep-sea explorer Jeffrey Marlow plunges us into the unreachable realm and invites us into close-up encounters with its hidden brilliance. There are translucent shrimp that dance through sulfurous vents, crabs that stretch twelve feet from claw to claw and the eerie chalk-white towers of the 'Lost City'. Immersive and illuminating, Marlow's journeys heed warnings too: our reach is exceeding our grasp. We are irrevocably changing the deep sea before we even know it. This expansive book offers crucial and surprising insights into the birthplace of life on ancient Earth. It shows how life can thrive in even the most extreme conditions and expands our understanding of possibilities - and our responsibilities - on earth and beyond.

The questions posed by disability studies scholarship are increasingly of interest to medieval studies scholars and there have been a wealth of books published on the intersection of these two fields of research over the past two decades. More recently, medieval scholars have developed a framework for considering more specifically medieval ways of thinking about disability, analyzing the medieval conception of the different or 'othered' body and thinking through 'medieval things': such as the responses to injury and resulting impairment in contemporary law, literature, and art; the impaired body as a site for miraculous transformation; the presence of physical and mental difference in different cultural modes than exist in the modern world; and the role of theosophical thought in characterizing difference. This is the first volume to survey this field as a whole, bringing together the most notable scholars in the field alongside up-and-coming academics, to analyse recent studies and to suggest directions for future research. Chapters are organized into four categories that treat broadly the current questions of the field as they apply to each contributor's area of expertise: Articulations of Difference; Critical Perspectives; Traditions of Medieval Thought; and Disability and Material Cultures. Each category is introduced by a leading figure in the field, and the volume is concluded with an Afterword.

A century ago, the greatest pandemic since the Black Death engulfed the world. From spring 1918, a deadly form of influenza rapidly developed and struck hundreds of millions of people. By spring 1919, it had left 50 million dead. This book charts the enduring legacies of that cataclysmic year and tells the story of what happened after 1918. Not only did the pandemic haunt the individual and collective memories of survivors, it became a touchstone for generations tasked with protecting the health of nations and the international community.

A provocative letter from a prominent eighteenth-century British noblewoman, Henrietta Howard, to her close friend Mary Hervey is a rare survivor of the informal, collaborative satires created by court women in this period. This particular June 1729 artifact contains a witty and light-hearted list of imaginary portraits, most of which refer to a notable political figure through references to specific paintings, sculptures, engravings, ceramics, textiles and book illustrations. Through a close reading of archival manuscripts, published correspondences and art historical treatises, Eric Weichel explores the cultural milieu and historical legacy of this remarkable text. Constrained by strict standards of moral propriety, the writer's overt discussions of sexuality in this letter are encoded through a system of embedded jokes and mythological references. Weichel argues that through Lady Hervey's mention of popular works of art, such as the Hampton Court tapestry cartoons by Raphael, the 'Jupiter and Ganymede' motif in country house décor, or the illustrated fables of Jean de La Fontaine, she alludes specifically to her wider circle's knowledge of adultery, queerness, sexual violence, and divorce among their peer group. In her imaginary portraits, Hervey also shows an interest in feminist education and literature, political and religious patronage, and contemporary news events.
