Book Description
Although pervasive in Spenser's art, the role of rhetoric has not been adequately addressed by critics. This disregard of the importance of rhetoric in The Faerie Queene, Dixon argues, obscures Spenser's larger rhetorical method and the structural dynamic it generates. Dixon identifies Britomart's evolution in Books III-V as the poem's centre and elucidates the rhetorical strategies that invest Spenser's "argument" for justice. Building on Kenneth Burke's conception of courtship in rhetoric as "the use of suasive devices for the transcending of social estrangement," Dixon interprets The Faerie Queene as a narrative of courtship in purpose as well as content, arguing that its tales of questing knights compose an artifact of suasive devices whereby Spenser courts a meeting of minds with his audience on the subject of justice.

Pages : 365
Book Description
When Jessica went to the Venus School of Sex she never imagined that she would fall in love with one man, much less two. She'd just gotten comfortable with the idea of going semi-public at home with Justin and Chris when her ex-boyfriend outed their unconventional relationship to all her friends. To her horror she finds out that her family is the reason her ex even knows about it. But it doesn't matter how people react, she's not going to give up on Justin and Chris and they're not going to give up on her - it's time to face her family and make them realize that she's choosing her happiness over other people's judgments. Liam and Hilary are having their own problems now that Liam's realized Hilary kept him a secret from her parents. What he can't understand is why. He's been falling in love with his honey-girl, does she not feel the same way? This is the conclusion to the Venus Rising Quartet, although Justin, Chris, Jessica, Liam and Hilary will also appear quite often in G. Angel's follow-up Stronghold series, for which there is a teaser included at the end of this book.

Medieval Venuses and Cupids
Author: Theresa Tinkle
Publisher: Stanford University Press
ISBN: 0804764808
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 312
Book Description
Medieval Venuses and Cupids analyses the transformations of the love deities in later Middle English Chaucerian poetry, academic Latin discourses on classical myth (including astrology, natural philosophy, and commentaries on classical Roman literature), and French conventions that associate Venus and Cupid with Ovidian arts of love. Whereas existing studies of Venus and Cupid contend that they always and everywhere represent two loves (good and evil), the author argues that medieval discourses actually promulgate diverse, multiple, and often contradictory meanings for the deities. The book establishes the range of meanings bestowed on the deities through the later Middle Ages, and draws on feminist and cultural theories to offer new models for interpreting both academic Latin discourses and vernacular poetry.

Claiming His Wife
Author: Golden Angel
Publisher: Golden Angel LLC
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
Estranged for years but still in love, Alex is determined to win back his wife. Lord Brooke is determined to reconcile with his estranged wife, Grace. He's willing to put their past problems where he thinks they belong - in the past - but insults and disrespect will be met with discipline. He's seen the marriages his friends have, and decided to take a page from their books. Unfortunately for him, Grace is not so willing to let go of past hurts, although she has no choice but to go with him when he decides to take her to Bath. At least her friends are there for moral support, while she does her best to discover exactly why her husband is so intent on reconciliation rather than divorce. Hugh and Irene are blissfully happy, having declared their love for each other, but they seem to be the only ones. Eleanor is pregnant and worried that her condition will mean the end of overt affection and desire from her husband - especially as he hasn't declared any kind of finer feelings for her. She thinks Edwin doesn't realize she's with child, and worries over how to prod a declaration of love from him. Meanwhile, everyone is gathered in Bath for Wesley's wedding to the brazen and rebellious Cynthia. When these four women get together, it's no wonder that both trouble and bright red bottoms loom on the horizon. Each of their husbands is bound and determined to claim and tame his willful wife.
