Isabella's Journey
Author: Serafina Sammarco
Publisher: Balboa Press
ISBN: 1452586179
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 123
Book Description
Isabella Marie Sammarco (Oct. 7th, 1971 - July 29th, 1986) Isabella was known by her family and friends for her tremendous zest and respect for life; with a sparkle in her eyes and a contagious smile, she taught those around her to appreciate their lives and to love one another. Although she was very much aware from an early age that her life would be short, this knowledge did not stop her from living with a purpose and making each day count. Isabella was diagnosed at eight months with Thalassemia Major - a genetic blood disorder - that required her to have regular, monthly transfusions to survive. She fought vigorously to overcome the numerous obstacles that she encountered during her brief life, until her small body could fight no more. Isabella died two months short of her fifteenth birthday. This book is the heartfelt, truthful account of a brave soul and her dedicated family. It is a story that will touch all who read it and inspire those looking for guidance and hope.

Keats, Modesty and Masturbation
Author: Rachel Schulkins
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 131710935X
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 328
Book Description
Examining John Keats’s reworking of the romance genre, Rachel Schulkins argues that he is responding to and critiquing the ideals of feminine modesty and asexual femininity advocated in the early nineteenth century. Through close readings of Isabella; or the Pot of Basil, The Eve of St. Agnes, Lamia and ’La Belle Dame sans Merci,’ Schulkins offers a re-evaluation of Keats and his poetry designed to demonstrate that Keats’s sexual imagery counters conservative morality by encoding taboo desires and the pleasures of masturbation. In so doing, Keats presents a version of female sexuality that undermines the conventional notion of the asexual female. Schulkins engages with feminist criticism that largely views Keats as a misogynist poet who is threatened by the female’s overwhelming sexual and creative presence. Such criticism, Schulkins shows, tends towards a problematic identification between poet and protagonist, with the text seen as a direct rendering of authorial ideology. Such an interpretation neither distinguishes between author, protagonist, text, social norms and cultural history nor recognises the socio-sexual and political undertones embedded in Keats’s rendering of the female. Ultimately, Schulkins’s book reveals how Keats’s sexual politics and his refutation of the asexual female model fed the design, plot and vocabulary of his romances.

Isabella's Fables
Author: Antoinette Isabella
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 0595301312
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 72
Book Description
Reading to a child is leading him/her into the world of a particular topic. The interpretations and explanations are fundamental in formulating a mind's image of all that is verbalized. What is read to a child is just as important as how it is read, and once a child steps into the words using his own imagination there is a stimulation that entices their want to hear more. Running alongside a lion in chase, or climbing to the very top of a huge redwood and seeing the entire world below, skipping along the ocean floor, or hearing a voice coming from a tree are just a few of the many trips your child will take in their journey through Isabella's Fables. And through the adventure there is a lesson to be learned. Unlike the fables of old, these stories are written in present day vernacular and the "moral of the story" is easily understood.
