Book Description
When Jay loses their home and business in the financial crash and Pandora's job as a TV panellist comes under threat, the appearance of an archangel seems to be just the good omen they need. The message he brings, however, forces Pandora to disappear on a secret mission to fulfil a prophecy, endangering both her relationship and a precious gift she's been given. Events bring Pandora to her knees, but the light at the end of the tunnel may yet lead her to a miracle. It wouldn't be a Pandora story without romance, transformation, suspense and a touch of the fantastic. True to form, this final book of the series provides all these elements and more.

Book Description
Returned war veteran and single dad Flint is a man on the edge of darkness. He has seen the worst of humanity and measures his world only in shades of gray. Color, life and hope, simply do not exist in his reality. Artist and teacher Pandora is a free spirit who uses her innate magic to help guide troubled souls away from the darkness toward light. Toward life. Toward hope. These polar opposites are destined to collide in a blaze of passion, but their coupling initiates a struggle to save Flint’s soul — a struggle that threatens to pull them both down into the abyss of darkness that has become so familiar he is almost afraid to let it go. As Pandora becomes more deeply involved in Flint’s tortured journey toward healing, how will she protect her own heart from the dangerous lure of the dark? Please note: Pandora’s Gift contains content only suitable for mature readers, including references to military service and PTSD.

Book Description
I thought my life was perfect, but then I learned it was all a lie. My name is El, and I live in a quiet southern town where the most exciting thing that happens is Friday night football and the Harvest Moon Festival. That is...until I learn that the three women who raised me have been lying to me all my life. I thought I was an orphan. I thought my aunts loved and respected me enough to always tell me the truth. I was wrong. Dead wrong. A month before my eighteenth birthday the truth of my birth, of my whole existence, came crashing down all around me, destroying everything I thought I knew about my life. Not only is my mother alive, but she's the mythical Pandora. You remember her. She's the one who opened the box Zeus gave her and unleashed chaos into the world. Supposedly, I'm the savior that three other worlds I didn't even knew existed are counting on to rescue them. There's just one problem. I can only save one of them. A champion from each of these troubled worlds are coming to my home so I can choose one to marry. Whoever I pick, gets to not only save their world but also have me as their wife. The battle to win my heart won't be easy for them, if my aunts have anything to say about it. They'll all have to participate in a tournament that will challenge not only their physical strengths but also their ability to charm me into falling in love with them. I don't want this responsibility. I don't want to save one world while dooming two others. There has to be a way out of all of this, but the evil forcing this choice on me...the one who has waited a millennium for me to finally come of age to participate in this game...is my own brother, and he won't take no for an answer. He's chaos unleashed, and I'm the only one who can stop him.

Book Description
Pandora waas the "pagan Eve," and she is one of the rare mythological figures to have retained vitality up to our day. Glorified by Calderon, Voltaire, and Goethe, she is familiar to all of us, and "Pandora's box" is a household word. In this classic study Dora and Erwin Panofsky trace the history of Pandora and of Pandora's box in European literature and art from Roman times to the present. Originally published in 1962. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Book Description
The notorious image of Pandora haunts mythology: a woman created as punishment for the crimes of man, she is the bearer of hope yet also responsible for the Earth’s desolation. She binds together perpetuating dichotomies that underlie the most fundamental aspects of the Western canon: beauty and evil, body and soul, depth and superficiality, truth and lie. Speaking in multiplicity, Pandora emerges as the first sign of female complexity. In this compelling study, Vered Lev Kenaan offers a radical revision of the Greek myth of the first woman. She argues that Pandora leaves a decisive mark on ancient poetics and shows that we can unravel the profound impact of Pandora’s image once we recognize that Pandora embodies the very idea of the ancient literary text. Locating the myth of the first woman right at the heart of feminist interrogation of gender and textuality, Pandora’s Senses moves beyond a feminist critique of masculine hegemony by challenging the reading of Pandora as a one-dimensional embodiment of the misogynist vision of the feminine. Uncovering Pandora as a textual principle operating outside of the feminine, Lev Kenaan shows the centrality of this iconic figure among the poetics of such central genres as the cosmological and didactic epic, the Platonic dialogue, the love elegy, and the ancient novel. Pandora’s Senses innovates our understanding of gender as a critical lens through which to view ancient literature.

Book Description
The story of Pandora is one of the most resonant in Greek mythology. As Healing Pandora shows, it’s also one of the most relevant. Psychologist Gail Thomas has used Pandora in her practice for two decades, often with profound results. Cast in popular accounts as the evil bringer of doom to humanity in divine retaliation for Prometheus stealing fire, Pandora, in Thomas’ view, is a much more complex character, with enormous healing powers as well as her better-known destructive capacity. In this revelatory book, Thomas shows Pandora’s true nature as the dark but all-giving feminine, the archetypal vessel of culture and city with the power to heal our culture. Pandora’s task is to help us transform our overwhelmingly material civilization into a culture of undivided participation and engagement. Part one discusses Pandora’s multifaceted persona as both beautiful evil and divine benefactress. Here Thomas contextualizes Pandora in the cycle of myth and archetype. In part two, the author proposes a series of healing rituals—“Healing Our Fear of Sacrifice,” “Healing Our Dis-Ease,” “Healing the Control of Patriarchy,” and others—inspired by Pandora. Both practical guide and inspiring study, Healing Pandora argues persuasively for manifesting our inner work concretely on the cultural, not just personal, level.

Book Description
Unravel the threads of destiny in this FREE epic Greek mythology series starter in the Eschaton Cycle historical fantasy universe. Open the Box … In a single moment, Pandora lost the only person she cared for. For refusing to aid a tyrannical order, Zeus bound Prometheus in eternal torment. But Pandora’s beloved left her a gift: a puzzle box, that when solved, allows her to jaunt through time. So begins her relentless pursuit to save Prometheus. Across the Ages, Pandora strives against the world of the Olympians, battling the corruption of their misogynistic systems. To succeed, she must confront gods, monsters, and the fearsome Nemesis. Yet her greatest foe may not prove Zeus and his order, but Fate itself, for time resists changes, and its weave is more complex than Pandora can imagine.
