Choice Outstanding Academic Title 2023The Myth of Harmengages and analyses controversies generated by horror that examines some of the most high-profile media debates around the issue of whether or not horror texts corrupt children.The horror genre has endured a long and controversial success within popular culture. Fraught with accusations pertaining to its alleged ability to harm and corrupt young people and indeed society as a whole, the genre is constantly under pressure to suppress that which has made it so popular to begin with - its ability to frighten and generate discussion about society's darker side. Recognising the circularity of patterns in each generational manifestation of horror censorship, The Myth of Harmdraws upon cases such as the Slenderman stabbing and the James Bulger murder amongst many others in order to explore the manner in which horror has been repeatedly cast as a harmful influence upon children at the expense of scrutinising other more complex social issues.Focusing on five major controversies beginning in the 1930's Golden Age of Horror Cinema and ending on a more contemporary note with Cyber-Gothic horror - this book identifies and considers the various myths and false hoods surrounding the genre of horror and question the very motivation behind the proliferation and dissemination of these myths as scapegoats for political and social issues, platforms for "moral entrepreneurs" and tools of hyperbolae for the news industry.

The Azathé Tea Room is a strange place, indeed.There are no servers, no menus - do mind our hostess, though, she can get a bit underfoot! Help yourself to a book while you wait, and be sure to shuffle your tarot deck well before placing your order.Harper Hollingsworth wasn't looking for a friend. She wanted peace and quiet. Someplace to lose herself in a book and not think about her grief, not think about her coven or her disconnect from the craft, not think about being the odd goth out everywhere she went. She didn't want to think about her lack of magical ambition, as she was regularly told by her mother's poison-tongued familiar, and how her life had fallen apart since the death of her father. More than that - she didn't want to feel. Anything.To the strange, seldom seen owner of one of Cambric Creek's oddest businesses, tea is more than just a beverage. They take pride in both their blends and their unorthodox method of teasing out the order each guest needs to sate more than their thirst. Azathé brews more than a fine cup of tea - they steep the smell of memories, the anticipation of the future, pain and loss, hope and longing, an elixir of health and comfort and feeling in every cup.Residing unseen in the shadows gets a bit lonely at times, an undignified emotion for one as old as themselves, and so they have made it their business to get to know their unwitting neighbors one cup of tea at a time. Guests may not know what to expect when they step over the shop's threshold, but the owner guarantees they will feel something before they leave.Companionship wasn't Harper's aim the day she stepped into the odd little tea room, just off Cambric Creek's bustling Main Street. She wanted to settle into the shadows and get lost there, and if she had to talk to anyone, it would be to herself.She didn't expect the shadows to talk back.The shadowy proprietor of the Azathé Tea Room isn't content to watch Harper sink into depression day after day within the walls of their establishment. Once they intervene, Harper is drawn into their world of oddity and emotions, where the darkest shadows can reside in the light, and even the most mildly macabre witch can find her place.Two For Tea is a human/monster romance featuring a bi demisexual F witch and a non-binary (and very non-human) shadow creature. It is set in the world of Cambric Creek, but can be enjoyed as a standalone, but will best be appreciated read as part of the series. Themes included: ALL the creepy/cozy aesthetic, acceptance of grief, working through depression, why choose appendages, finding one's place. This is a high heat romance intended only for mature audiences.

"A great way to deepen your spiritual life is to take a deep dive into a tradition other than your own-especially if you have a competent guide, and Rabbi Rami is an extraordinary guide. Not into Zen? Not a Jew? Not a problem. Anyone on any path will benefit enormously from this profoundly illuminating book." —Philip Goldberg, author of American Veda: From Emerson and the Beatles to Yoga and Meditation, How Indian Spirituality Changed the WestWith reference to Shunryu Suzuki Roshi's classic Zen Mind, Beginner’s Mind, Rami Shapiro begins with beginner’s mind as "empty, free of the habits of the expert, ready to accept, to doubt, and open to all the possibilities. It is the kind of mind which can see things as they are, which step by step and in a flash can realize the original nature of everything.” Then, Rami ponders beginner’s mind in the child of the Passover Haggadah "who knows not how to ask.” The parents of this child are told to open (patach) the child to the art of questioning. Asking questions is key to Jewish mind.The questioning perennial beginner is central to both Zen and Jewish, Rami demonstrates: a daring, iconoclastic, often humorous mind devoted to shattering the words, texts, isms, and ideologies on which expert mind—closed to inquiry—depends.Zen Mind / Jewish Mind is not a scholarly study of anything, let alone Zen or Judaism, and despite all the footnotes, the book rests solely on Shapiro’s fifty-plus years of playing in the garden of Judaism, Zen, and advaita/nonduality. Chapters include "Dharma Eye, God’s I” (1), "Koan and Midrash” (4), and "The Yoga of Conversation” (7).

This new edition of a classic text fashions on Dirac algebra into a unified, coordinate-free mathematical language for both classical and quantum physics that articulates smoothly with standard vector algebra and provides a powerful alternative to matrix and tensor algebras. The standard set of Maxwell's equations, for example, are reduced to a single equation with a single differential operator that is identical to the one used in the Dirac equation. Moreover, reformulation of the Dirac equation reveals hidden geometric structure and new insight into the role of complex numbers in quantum mechanics. That is incorporated into a novel gauge theory approach to quantum mechanics and General Relativity.

The goal of this anthology is twofold: (1) to build confidence in the student's ability to read unaltered Latin texts as soon as possible after (or even during) the first year of instruction in the language; (2) to put into the hands of Latin students a number of engaging and lively texts that reflect different aspects of the culture of Western Europe during the Middle Ages.To accomplish the above, this book provides vocabulary and commentary to a selection of texts taken from Charles H. Beeson's A Primer of Medieval Latin: An Anthology of Poetry and Prose (Chicago, 1925). Now nearly a century old, Beeson's anthology is still, perhaps, the single best collection of Medieval Latin texts available, at least in terms of its breadth, accessibility, and success at achieving its stated goal of "provid[ing] a collection of material that will prepare students, who have had at least four years of high-school Latin, to read ordinary medieval Latin texts with a fair degree of ease and assurance." (Beeson, 1)Beeson's Primer has aged incredibly well, with one exception: its intended audience of "students, who have had at least four years of high-school Latin," is now largely a thing of the past. Today's undergraduates, if they took Latin in high school, will most likely have studied only 1-2 years of the language before matriculation. Indeed, the majority of college Latin students will only on rare occasions pursue the language beyond two semesters. For these reasons, I have chosen from Beeson's anthology texts which I believe are both the most engaging and the most accessible. Admittedly, this is a very personal selection, but one that I have found success with in the classroom for over two decades. What is most sorely lacking for today's students in terms of Beeson's original anthology is its extremely limited assistance with vocabulary (due to the fact that the undergraduates of Beeson's day had already had at least four years of exposure to the language). On the understanding that the presumed audience for this text has only studied Latin, on average, for one year, this edition remedies that deficiency by providing significant vocabulary assistance.The notes of this anthology also explicate certain syntactical and grammatical aspects that may be challenging for beginning-intermediate students, point out some of the more striking literary/rhetorical figures and tropes that are employed, and supply basic information on historical, social, cultural, and literary issues raised by these texts.With the exception of the two poems from the Carmina Burana, which lose much of their power, charm, wit, and in the case of the second poem-the last selection in this anthology-manic energy if not performed out loud with all of the rhymes intact, the words of the texts follow Classical Latin spelling norms. Thus in the prose selections of this anthology one will find mihi, not the common Medieval Latin spelling of michi, aetas instead of etas, etc. This too is in line with Beeson's practice, for he thought it best "to avoid adding to the troubles of the beginner... by "adopt[ing] the classical orthography throughout,..." (Beeson, 3)

CO-WINNER: The Triennial Alan Walker Book Award, sponsored by the American Liszt Society 2023A new and wide-ranging collection of essays by leading international scholars, exploring the concept and practices of virtuosity in Franz Liszt and his contemporaries.In the annals of music history, few figures have dominated the discussion of virtuosity as much as Franz Liszt. A flamboyant performer whose hair-raising technical feats at the piano created a sense of awe-inspiring excitement and an icon whose star power radiated far beyond the realm of music, Liszt was, along with his early model, Paganini, among the first major performer-composers to define himself principally by virtuosity. Featuring new essays by an international group of preeminent scholars, Liszt and Virtuosity offers a reevaluation of the concept and practices of virtuosity as shaped and defined in Liszt's multifaceted oeuvre, as well as a reconsideration of Liszt's relation to other major and lesser-known musical figures, including Czerny, Schubert, Chopin, Brahms, Debussy, and Marie Jaëll. Set in the context of larger trends within the fields of music history, music analysis, intellectual history, and performance studies, these capacious explorations demonstrate that Liszt's uniqueness and significance resided in his ability to transform virtuosity into a revolutionary musical force, pushing the piano aesthetic to the limits of sound and poetic meaning.

The forgotten history of the US war against the Cherokee offers a crucial reframing of America's origin story. Americans remember 1776 as the year liberty was declared, the moment they cast off tyranny and proclaimed the self-evident truths of equality and freedom. But that same summer, as patriots celebrated their defiant new nation, American armies launched another campaign—this one aimed at destroying the Cherokee nation. The Cherokee War of 1776 recasts America's founding moment by tracing the importance of westward ambition and settler violence to the origins of the Revolutionary War. In this gripping and sobering book, historian Kevin Kokomoor uncovers the rarely acknowledged war waged by the emerging United States against the Cherokee people just days after the Declaration of Independence was signed. Far from a spontaneous frontier skirmish, this war was a coordinated, state-backed campaign with a clear aim: seize Indigenous land and crush Native resistance. Many of the very men who championed liberty on parchment simultaneously advocated for the wholesale destruction of a sovereign Native nation. At the heart of this story is Cherokee resistance, which was strategic, determined, and deeply rooted in community dynamics. Figures like Dragging Canoe emerged to lead a movement that endured long after American armies had burned Cherokee towns to the ground. Kokomoor foregrounds Cherokee voices, motivations, and resilience, challenging the notion that they were merely pawns in a colonial struggle and forcing us to reckon with the real costs of independence and the long fight for Indigenous sovereignty.
