Engaging Donna Haraway: Lives in the Natureculture Web explores the impact of major theorist, Donna Haraway, in such diverse areas as feminisms, Marxism, new materialism, science studies, posthumanism, animal studies, ecocriticism, digital media, and life narrative. The book shows how Haraway’s decades-long career as a major theoretical voice and provocateur of thinking about new and complex connections across technology, species, and disciplines has generated bold experiments in writing from the perspective and senses of non-human species, in photographic self-portraiture of bodily life, in animating the lives of scientists, in radical genealogy, in playful teaching methods and much more. Focusing on the ways in which Haraway’s oeuvre have affected and will continue to challenge life narrative theory and practice, the chapters in this book present cross-disciplinary perspectives which are both personal and critical. As scholars, students and activists inspired by Haraway’s work, these essays together ask all of us to think about where we place ourselves in an age of environmental crisis and how to live in a ‘natureculture web’ which is as fragile as it is beautiful. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of a/b: Auto/Biography Studies.

The aim of the book is to propose new interpretations of poets who are among the most valued and discussed in the British Enlightenment. In fulfilling its aim, the book covers English poetry—and intellectual history—from the Restoration to the later eighteenth century. It examines how the myth of the donna angelica (the angelic lady), ancient in origin but given its best-known form within the medieval literature of fin’amor, lives on beyond the Middle Ages and the Renaissance into the Enlightenment. To be more precise, it studies how some major Augustan poets appropriate and recreate what, for convenience, can be called the donna angelica topos (or, the angelic lady motif). They do so for a great many reasons linked with quite diverse circumstances. Nevertheless, the myth’s intellectual richness, emotional intensity, and inherent ambiguities mean that it offers each of them a powerful way for articulating, interpreting, exploring refractions of eros—whether singly or diversely directed, concerned with sexuality or spirituality, informing personal or public experience. The myth has as many faces, so to speak, as does desire; it is one and yet many. Thus, the book pursues a particular fable of eros that appears in a multiplicity of texts in a multiplicity of guises. It studies how some of the most interesting poets from Dryden to Crabbe bring the angelic lady motif into modernity.
La sua et era dibattuta, e cos anche la sua origine. La maggior parte delle persone pensava che avesse "circa quarant'anni"; un'et molto sicura, abbastanza giovane da consentire aspettative quasi illimitate, abbastanza vecchia da rendere i risultati raggiunti non del tutto innaturali, anche se forse sorprendenti. S , deve avere "circa quarant'anni". E la sua origine? "Meyer" ha suggerito la Germania. Quanto a "Isaacson", ha permesso all'ardente immaginazione di giocare liberamente su Israele denazionalizzato. Qualcuno ha detto che "sembrava venire dall'Est", al che un cinico ha risposto: "L'East End". Forse c'era un accenno di entrambi nel Dottore di Cleveland Square. Certo che nel corso di una passeggiata per Brick Lane, o per le strade adiacenti, si incontreranno uomini del suo genere; uomini di statura media, di corporatura snella, con capelli folti e fitti che crescono fortemente arricciati, labbra fortemente arcuate, narici grandi, zigomi prominenti, occhi scuri quasi ferocemente lucenti; uomini che sono sorprendentemente poco inglesi. Il dottor Meyer Isaacson era come questi uomini. Eppure possedeva qualcosa che lo distingueva da loro. Sembrava intensamente vitale - quasi innaturalmente vitale - quando era circondato da inglesi, ma non sembrava feroce e affamato. Si poteva immaginare che facesse qualcosa di bizzarro, ma non si poteva concepire che facesse qualcosa di basso. A volte c'era una luce nei suoi occhi che suggeriva una distinzione morale raramente riscontrabile in coloro che abitano a Brick Lane e nei suoi dintorni. Le sue mani esili e nervose, di colore scuro, ricordavano le mani degli egiziani di alta razza. Come tanti nella sua nazione, era per sua natura un artista. Un amore istintivo per ci che c'era di meglio nelle creazioni dell'uomo gli scorreva nelle vene con il suo sangue. Amava le cose belle e sapeva cosa erano belle e cosa no. Il second'ordine non gli ha mai fatto appello. Il primato trovava in lui un accogliente entusiasta. Non si stancava mai di guardare bei quadri, statue nobili, bronzi, vecchi vetri ingioiellati, intagli delicati, gioielli perfetti. Era sinceramente commosso dalla grande architettura. E alla musica era quasi fanaticamente devoto.

This is the thirteenth of a series of novels that revolve around JP Parker a 100 year old retired New York City private detective from the 30s, 40s, and 50s. In a story narrated by his wife, Doris, Parker is hired by a high school boy to look into the sudden mysterious disappearance of his older sister. With the investigation yielding very little about the college girl, Parker and his wife instead become intrigued about the childrens' odd parents. Does their personal politics, odd late night meetings, and friends have anything to do with what happened to their daughter? Along the way Parker and Doris also encounter a flamboyant minister, FBI agents, and a vengeful police detective. In what way are these people involved in the mystery or is there something even bigger going on? When the case soon veers off in ways neither could have anticipated, including murder, the Parkers find their lives seriously threatened as they work together to find the real reason for "Disappearing Donna".
