Book Description
Mantic elements are manifold in the English drama of the Renaissance period: they are supernatural manifestations and have a prophetic, future-determining function within the dramatic plot, which can be difficult to discern. Addressing contemporaries of Shakespeare, this study interprets a representative number of revenge tragedies, among them The Spanish Tragedy, The White Devil, and The Revenger's Tragedy, to draw general conclusions about the use of mantic elements in this genre. The analysis of the cultural context and the functionalisation of mantic elements in revenge tragedy of the Elizabethan, Jacobean, and Caroline era show their essential function in the construction of the plot. Mantic elements create and stimulate audience expectations. They are not only rhetoric decorum, but structural elements, and convey knowledge about the genre, the fate of which is determined by retaliation. An interpretation of revenge tragedy is only possible if mantic providentialism is taken into account.

Book Description
While most of the more recent influential work on swearing has concentrated on English and other languages from the Global North, looking at forms and functions of swear words, this contribution redirects the necessary focus onto a sociolinguistics of swearing that puts transgressive practices in non-Western languages into the focus. The transdisciplinary volume contains innovative case studies that address swearing and cursing in parts of the world characterized by consequences of colonialism and increasingly debated inequalities. Turning away from more conventional and established methodologies and theoretical approaches, the book envisages to address transgressive linguistic practices, performances and contexts in Africa, Asia, America and Europe –including individuals' creativity, subversive power and agency. Due to its interdisciplinary and non-mainstream focus, this volume is an essential addition to the field of studies.

Book Description
In the riveting sequel to Cursed Wishes, award-winning author Marcy Kennedy returns to the isles of medieval Scotland in a fast-paced fantasy where evil creatures roam the earth and danger is hidden in every lie you tell yourself. NOTHING WITH THE FAE IS EVER FREE, ESPECIALLY NOT VICTORY… Ceana Campbell wakes up in Duntulm Castle after surviving the battle with the nuckalevee, believing that it’s only a matter of days until her curse is lifted. Gavran will return for her as soon as he heals from the wound the nuckalevee gave him, and Lady MacDonald will take them to her fae contact. At least, that’s how it was supposed to go, but magical wounds aren’t like natural ones. The nuckalevee infected Gavran with a poisonous venom when it struck him down. Within a fortnight, he’ll die a painful death unless they can find an equally magical cure. THE MOST DANGEROUS MONSTER IS SOMETIMES THE ONE WITHIN… Gavran Anderson’s mind is no longer his own. Whatever the nuckalevee venom has done to him, the physical effects are the least of his worries. He’s not even as terrified as he should be that the only way to cure him involves facing another fae who’d rather see them suffer. What scares him the most are the voices in his head. The ones telling him that the people he thought were his friends want him dead. That he’ll feel better if they’re gone. Can Ceana find a way to outwit an opponent more cruel and cunning than she ever imagined possible before time runs out? Or before Gavran kills her first?

Book Description
A duke who has imprisoned himself in an attic for nine years is in need of a wife… Evander Meyrick, the Duke of Sutherton, has lived the past thirteen years under a curse. He didn’t know just how bad the curse was until every lady he married died within a year of their wedding day. Now he has a step-daughter, Tabitha, who is ready for her first Season, and he longs to give her something he can’t have for himself: a normal life. A spinster who thought her best years were behind her may find a second chance so long as the curse doesn’t touch her… At thirty-four, Miss Viola Keane is well past her prime. Having gone through three failed Seasons, she had resigned herself to never knowing the joys of marriage and children. Instead, she focused her attention on her family. Shortly after her brother’s death, however, she finds out her family doesn’t have any money. When she learns that the Duke of Sutherton is offering a sizable sum of money to any lady who’s willing to marry him, she jumps at the opportunity to become his wife. The notion of a curse doesn’t scare her. She, after all, doesn’t buy into such superstitious nonsense. But since her new husband and step-daughter are convinced the curse is real, she abides by the strange rules he lays out for her. He wasn’t planning to fall in love again… Evander only intended to spend enough time with Viola to discuss her role as Tabitha’s step-mother. But it’s been a long time since he’s had a meaningful conversation with another person, and something about her reminds him of what his life was like before the curse ruined his life. Dare he take the chance of opening himself up to her and potentially risk losing another wife, or should he keep his distance in order to keep her safe?
