Cosmopolitanisms and the Jews (Social History, Popular Culture, And Politics In Germany) by Cathy Gelbin (University of Michigan Press) 5.0 Stars (3 Reviews)    Price verified 27 minutes ago

Cosmopolitanisms and the Jews adds significantly to contemporary scholarship on cosmopolitanism by making the experience of Jews central to the discussion, as it traces the evolution of Jewish cosmopolitanism over the last two centuries. The book sets out from an exploration of the nature and cultural-political implications of the shifting perceptions of Jewish mobility and fluidity around 1800, when modern cosmopolitanist discourse arose. Through a series of case studies, the authors analyze the historical and discursive junctures that mark the central paradigm shifts in the Jewish self-image, from the Wandering Jew to the rootless parasite, the cosmopolitan, and the socialist internationalist. Chapters analyze the tensions and dualisms in the constructed relationship between cosmopolitanism and the Jews at particular historical junctures between 1800 and the present, and probe into the relationship between earlier anti-Semitic discourses on Jewish cosmopolitanism and Stalinist ...

Anatomizing Civil War: Studies in Lucan's Epic Technique by Martin Dinter 5.0 Stars (2 Reviews)    Price verified 57 minutes ago

Imperial Latin epic has seen a renaissance of scholarly interest. This book illuminates the work of the poet Lucan, a contemporary of the emperor Nero who as nephew of the imperial adviser Seneca moved in the upper echelons of Neronian society. This young and maverick poet, whom Nero commanded to commit suicide at the age of 26, left an epic poem on the civil war between Caesar and Pompey that epitomizes the exuberance and stylistic experimentation of Neronian culture. This study focuses on Lucan's epic technique and traces his influence through the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. Martin T. Dinter's newest volume engages with Lucan's use of body imagery, sententiae, Fama (rumor), and open-endedness throughout his civil war epic. Although Lucan's Bellum Civile is frequently decried as a fragmented as well as fragmentary epic, this study demonstrates how Lucan uses devices other than teleology and cohesive narrative structure to bind together the many parts of his epic ...

This book is part of 'The Cult' series of books but can be read as a standalone story. Kevin loved his wife and children but that had never stopped him having a wandering eye. Allowing the Preacher's wife to seduce him had been a mistake. Continuing to allow her to have a hold over him had been a bigger mistake and not removing himself and his family from the influence of the Preacher, his wife and the so called Church of the Enlightenment had been his biggest mistake. If he had thought about it, he would have realised that he had effectively been groomed and that in time his wife would be drawn in as well. But he hadn't understood that then.
