Book excerpt: The nineteenth century was the great age of landscape painting in Europe and America. In an era of rapid industrialization and transformation of landscape, pictures of natural scenes were what people wanted most to display in their homes. The most popular and marketable pictures, often degenerating into kitsch, showed a wilderness with a pond or a lake in which obtrusive signs of industry and civilization had been edited out. Inspired by Romantic ideas of the uniqueness of the nation, pictorial and literary art was supposed to portray the «soul» of the nation and the spirit of place, a view commonly adopted by cultural and art historians on both sides of the Atlantic. Arcadian Waters and Wanton Seas argues that nationalistic or exceptionalist interpretations disregard deep-rooted iconological traditions in transatlantic culture. Depictions and ideas of nature go back to the classical ideas of Arcadia and Eden in which fountains, ponds, lakes, rivers, and finally the sea itself are central elements. Following their European colleagues, American artists typically portrayed the American Arcadia through the classical conventions. Arcadian Waters and Wanton Seas adopts the interdisciplinary and comparative methodological perspectives that characterize American studies. The book draws on art history, cultural history, literature, and the study of the production and use of visual images, and will serve well as a textbook for courses on American studies or cultural history of the Western world.

Book excerpt: Inside: THE BALLAD OF SUE LOGUE by Hal Gibson Sue Logue's involvement in the revenge murder of Davis Timmerman after he killed her husband, Wallace, resulted in her being executed along with her brother-in-law, George, and hit-man Clarence Bagwell. Her nephew, Joe Frank, Junior, who aided Bagwell in the murder, served a life sentence. Sue's insatiable appetite for life included a purported love affair with young Edgefield SC teacher and politician Strom Thurmond, whom she believed would save her. "Ms. Flowers spins a great tale of juicy Southern hospitality, bodacious family feuds, insidious betrayals, and gunslinging, vigilante justice that makes the OK Corral dust-up look like a Sunday afternoon picnic in the park." -Carol Jose, co-author of Evil Web: A True Story of Cult Abuse and Courage "In Wanton Woman Anna Flowers is at the top of her game in the true crime genre. This case history of murder, which made headlines in the 1940s, has it all, human intrigue, wanton sex, and an ending that will hit the reader with the impact of a bullet. The attention to historical detail, coupled with the skill to tell a compelling, fast-paced story, make Flowers' account of murder and mayhem read like a novel." -Maynard Allington, author of critically acclaimed The Court of Blue Shadows

Download or read book Wanton Windmill written by M.H. Davis and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2016-08-10 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wanton Windmill comprises, among other things, a curious and heady mixture of clerics, cultural celebrities; a bored cynic, extreme idealist, psychotherapist and behaviourist. This galaxy of characters assemble at Wanton Rectory for a weekend celebration of Sir Treadboards' 70th birthday. There are also two surprise arrivals. The extended conversations taking place over the weekend cover environmental issues, evolution, free-will; life on other planets and lead to a final, late Saturday night debate. Concerning the story-line, the well known thespian Sir Terence, is recovering after a breakdown. He has lately moved from London to live with his cousin, a retired Bishop, nicknamed 'Boffo'. The latter lives in a former Rectory at Lower Wanton End. The extensive grounds contain a windmill, and it is here that the out-of-sorts theatrical knight spends much of his time. On a Friday in August, invited guests travel to the Rectory by various forms of transport. In transit, we encounter the rabbit-faced poet, Edmund Edgy, who idolises the Anglo-Saxon era. We also meet a new political party leader, Ashley Dunce, whose sound-bites leaves everyone nonplussed. Other characters include an accident-prone cleric and celebrated woman artist. The various weekend guests arrive. Following supper, a recital is given by the nerve-ridden pianist, Julian Morbid. Afterwards, matters become complicated by Edmund Edgy being torn between the contrasting allures of Juniper and Esther. Mr. Morbid is also unhappily pursued by two quarrelling lady journalists. After a miniature train ride and picnic on Saturday, matters on Sunday morning move to a head with three male characters outside on the windmill's tower top, seeking to end their respective miseries. The overriding theme of this novel resides in the alliance of comedy with the fallibility of human idealism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dave is fourteen when his uncle teaches him how to pick up girls. Several women later, more than a few broken hearts in between, some drugs and alcohol added to the mixture, and a lack of sense of belonging to spice up the picture and Dave becomes a depressive romantic womanizer. Then he meets Izzy. She’s a skeptical clairvoyant, a woman lost in her world of secrets, unspeakable ghosts, and intuitive knowledge. The first time Dave and Izzy meet, they have a spread of tarot cards between them. If anyone said that everything changed in their lives from that moment on, they would be lying, because it took Dave and Izzy six months and the other side of the world for that to happen. So when chance brings them together after their odd first encounter, they form a bound that goes beyond normal friendship and stops at almost nothing. Izzy holds Dave’s deepest fears close to her heart and keeps his dirtiest secrets locked away in her soul. When they realize it, Dave’s wanton life has already permeated all bits of Izzy’s existence. He needs her sometimes more than the air he breathes, so love is not an option, is it? This is not merely about a man and a woman being just friends or more than that. This is about Dave’s wanton life, told by Izzy, who lived it through him.
