The House of Love and Death: A Cameron Winter Mystery
Cameron Winter is known for having a sense about crime. His background as a spy trained his mind--and his body--for action, and his current role as an English professor gives him a sharp understanding of human nature. But beyond that, he was born with a "strange habit of mind"--the ability to recreate detailed crime scenes in his imagination and dissect the motives and encounters that produced them. And after reading a puzzling news story about a wealthy family killed in a small town in the Chicago suburbs, he can't resist the chance to apply this deductive power in the pursuit of justice for the victims.Three members of the family, along with their live-in nanny, were pulled from their burning mansion, already dead from gunshot wounds. The only survivor is a young boy whose memory of the event raises more questions than answers. The police seem happy to settle on a simple explanation and arrest the most obvious suspect--but Winter knows that obvious solutions are seldom the correct ones, and all too often hide a darker truth.While Winter's investigation is welcomed by many who knew the victims, the lead detective makes it clear he not only wants Winters to stop looking for answers, but to stay out of his town altogether. Winter begins to understand why as he slowly uncovers crimes and unsavory behavior that had been ignored long before the killings, and in the process grows increasingly determined to find the real killer and expose the rot beneath the town's sanitized fa ade. And as the inquiry brings all-too-familiar sins to the surface, he'll have to confront his own inner demons once and for all.Insightful and atmospheric, The House of Love and Death is a penetrating mystery with a plot that cuts straight to the dark heart of some of modern America's most pressing issues.
American Impersonal: Essays with Sharon Cameron
American Impersonal brings together some of the most influential scholars now working in American literature to explore the impact of one of America’s leading literary critics: Sharon Cameron. It engages directly with certain arguments that Cameron has articulated throughout her career, most notably her late work on the question of impersonality. In doing so, it provides responses to questions fundamental to literary criticism, such as: the nature of personhood; the logic of subjectivity in depersonalized communities; the question of the human within the problematic of the impersonal; how impersonality relates to the “posthuman.”Additionally, some essays respond to the current “aesthetic turn” in literary scholarship and engage with the lyric, currently much debated, as well as the larger questions of poetics and the logic of genre.These crucial issues are addressed from the perspective of an American literary and philosophical tradition, and progress chronologically, starting from Melville and Emerson and moving via Dickinson, Thoreau and Hawthorne to Henry James and Wallace Stevens. This historical perspective adds the appeal of revisiting the American nineteenth-century literary and philosophical tradition, and even rewriting it.

Francesca Woodman and Julia Margaret Cameron: Portraits to Dream In draws parallels between two of the most significant practitioners in the history of photography, presenting fresh research, rare vintage prints, and previously unseen archival works. 'I feel that photographs can either document and record reality or they can offer images as an alternative to everyday life: places for the viewer to dream in.' – Francesca Woodman, 1980 Living and working over a century apart, Julia Margaret Cameron (1815–1879) and Francesca Woodman (1958–1981) experienced very different ways of making and understanding photographs. Francesca Woodman and Julia Margaret Cameron: Portraits to Dream In accompanies the exhibition of the same name opening at the National Portrait Gallery, London, in March 2024. Spanning the careers of both artists, the beautifully illustrated catalogue includes their best-known photographs as well as less familiar images. The exhibition works are arranged into eight thematic sections with feature essays, offering an accessible, engaging opportunity to consider both artists in a new light. This publication presents the artists’ exploration of portraiture as a ‘dream space’. It makes new connections between their work, which pushed the boundaries of the photographic medium and experimented with ideas of beauty, symbolism, transformation and storytelling to produce some of art history’s most compelling and admired photographs.

InnehållProlog av David Neuman, direktör Magasin 3 Stockholm Konsthall. Långa ögonblick, essä av Tessa Praun, intendent Magasin 3 Stockholm Konsthall.Katalogen publicerades i samband med Miroslav Tichy och Julia Margaret Cameron utställning på Magasin 3 Stockholm Konsthall, 2008. Miroslav Tichý skapade under 1960-, 70- och 80-talet oberoende av en samtida konstscen en säregen bildvärld vars fascination ligger i dess icke-perfektion och påminner om fotografins tidiga experiment. Med egentillverkade kameror har Tichý fotograferat i sin tjeckiska hemstad Kyjov med oskarpa fläckiga bilder som resultat – anonyma porträtt ofta försedda med elaborerade passepartouter. I kontrast till Tichý står en av fotohistoriens tidiga stjärnor, Julia Margaret Cameron (1815–1879). Som del av det viktorianska englands kulturella elit hade hon förmånen att kunna ägna sig åt tidens nya medium och porträtterade flitigt sin vänskapskrets. Författare, vetenskapsmän, konstnärer och deras familjemedlemmar förevigades i drömlika allegoriska bilder eller intima personporträtt. Cameron fick tidigt uppskattning som innovatör för sitt experimenterade med komposition och ljussättning.Texterna är skrivna på engelska och svenska.

Harvesting Russula Mushrooms is an art of subtility and discernment that requires a great sense of observation, a lot of seriousness and documentation. ‶The little Book of Russula Mushrooms of Cameroon: Edible Brittle-Lamellae Mushrooms‶ allow you to keep specialists' knowledge and Science in pocket during mushroom excursions Russula Mushrooms exhibit superior antioxidant properties, a unique nutritional profile which further enhances their potential as functional foods to prevent and combat chronic diseases by developing natural remedies for a wide range of health conditions. To avoid Russula species misidentification, use Nibble and Spit Test: any Russula Mushroom species with a spicy burn, acrid, hot or peppery taste upon nibble should not be eaten but those with a mild taste. Russula Mushrooms are keystone species for vital growth of Gilbertiodendron dewevrei (Limbali) trees which form Monodominant Forests. Yet, Russula Mushrooms are not cultivable owing to their symbiotic trophic status. Therefore, their natural forest habitats, Ectomycorrhizal Forest clumps, should be mapped, preserved and protected, as Integral Mycological Sanctuaries, throughout the Congo Basin.
Late-Antique Studies in Memory of Alan Cameron
The classicist and historian Alan Cameron (1938-2017) was, among other achievements, one of the scholars who most contributed to the refoundation of late-antique studies. In this tribute W. V. Harris and Anne Hunnell Chen have brought together fourteen contributions that cover a broad range of historical, literary, and art-historical topics, running from the first century AD to the ninth. Some contributions concern Cameron’s own favourite themes (the Greek Anthology, the Historia Augusta, circus factions, the transmission of texts), while others seek to assess his work and its impact. Other papers branch out from his concerns to discuss slavery, simony, and hospitals. Fourth- and fifth-century writers are often to the fore and the volume includes a new text by the poet Dioscoros of Aphrodite.
