The Return of the God-Queen.A year and a half has passed since the murder of Princess Yendra by her brother Montieth. With the Prince in jail, the City of the Aurelians has been at peace.Only one thing can disturb the tranquility of the City - the former all-powerful God-Queen. Hiding in Port Sanders under an alias, the former tyrant craves a life of luxury and quiet; but when the rest of the City discovers her identity, she realises that she has nowhere to hide...
The Reign of Terror begins....Rescued from a desert wasteland where he had been stranded for four thousand years, the Tenth Ascendant sits upon the throne of the City - his powers subduing the immortal gods and demigods who once ruled.Across the Straits in Jezra, Emily, Van and Kelsey Holdfast rally the last forces of resistance to the Ascendant's rule. At stake is the future, not only of the City of the Aurelians, but of the tyrant gods of Implacatus.The only way to stop him is for former enemies to unite, but some crimes are too terrible to be forgiven...
Onward to Dragon Eyre.Blackrose, mightiest of dragons, has returned to her world, and found it torn apart by civil war and a brutal occupation. For two decades, the elite Banner armies of Implacatus have struggled to subdue the homeland of the dragons - a world of island chains set amid a sparkling ocean, where the navy battle pirates for control of the lawless seas.As Blackrose and Maddie's return heralds the beginning of a new uprising, the dragon queen must make new allies, as well as find a way to tame the reckless and powerful witch, Sable Holdfast, and her dragon Badblood.
The Empire of the Star Continent is ruptured.On one side are the Holdfasts, a family that has already saved the world more than once; but also a family that includes mass-murderers, war criminals, and the vain, disobedient, and ambitious.On the other side is the imperial army - the only armed force on the Star Continent, and one guided by Daimon - a young Dream Mage with a grudge.Adopted into the ranks of Daphne's family, Thorn of Greyfalls Deepen has finally achieved her goal - now all she has to do is unite the Holdfasts, or risk being the shortest-lived ruler the Star Continent has ever seen.Without any wars to fight, Corthie Holdfast faces a different battle - against the demons in his own mind. Striving to live a peaceful life with Aila and his young family, Corthie's resolve will be put to the test. If he fails to resist the lure of violence that calls out to him, not only will his family be under threat, but the safety of his entire world.
The battle had been won - but the war is far from over.The Realm of Ulna has been liberated, and Blackrose sits upon her throne once again. Victory over the Banner forces has secured her rule, but opposition to Maddie, her foreign rider, continues to grow. With Unk Tannic agents infiltrating every corner of Dragon Eyre society, Maddie's position is more fragile than she thinks.On the other side of the world, Topaz is coming to terms with his new life in the service of the Five Sisters - the most notorious band of pirates sailing the seas of Dragon Eyre; while Sable Holdfast, severely injured in the battle to save Ulna, has finally found peace on a quiet, beautiful island with Badblood. She has turned her back on the world, but it hasn't yet finished with her...
Back where it all began.Living quietly with her young children in Colsbury Castle, Karalyn Holdfast has found peace at last. With the Sextant of the Gods under her control, she is making up for lost time, while keeping a wary eye on events sweeping across the other worlds where members of the Holdfast family live. Little does she know that her life is about to change again, as a young mage arises from the remote mountains of Kellach Brigdomin - a young mage who will upset the balance of power that has been carefully nurtured on the Star Continent.With an eye on achieving ultimate power for herself, Thorn Holdfast arrives in Plateau City with her husband Keir, ready to begin work for an Empress who has not yet forgiven her for the treachery of her youth.Without any wars to fight, Corthie Holdfast faces a different battle - against the demons in his own mind. Striving to live a peaceful life with Aila and his young family, Corthie's resolve will be put to the test. If he fails to resist the lure of violence that calls out to him, not only will his family be under threat, but the safety of his entire world.
Together again.For the first time in years, the entire Holdfast family is gathered in the same place. For Daphne, however, this is more than just the family reunion she has been longing for. At stake is the future of the entire Empire, and the choices made by the Holdfasts will determine if the Star Continent will live in peace, or descend into civil war.Karalyn has something other than the imperial succession on her mind. Her discovery that Belinda might still be alive on Implacatus has concentrated her thoughts on one objective - freeing the unwilling bride from the clutches of Edmond. To have any chance of success, she will need the help of others. From four different worlds, a group of unlikely heroes emerge; but will they be enough to save the Third Ascendant?Without any wars to fight, Corthie Holdfast faces a different battle - against the demons in his own mind. Striving to live a peaceful life with Aila and his young family, Corthie's resolve will be put to the test. If he fails to resist the lure of violence that calls out to him, not only will his family be under threat, but the safety of his entire world.

Liminality and «Communitas» in the Beat Generation
Aaron Christopher Mitchell
Peter Lang AG
2017

The Beat Generation questioned mid-twentieth century America and sought the margins of society. This book analyzes the literature and lifestyles of the Beat authors Jack Kerouac, William S. Burroughs, and Allen Ginsberg in regard to Victor Turner’s anthropological studies. The Beats separated from society by willingly entering the rites of passage. Liminal symbolism is apparent in their literature such as in movement, time, space, pilgrimages, and monstrosities. In their liminal stage, they established «communitas» and developed anti-structure. They questioned society and made proposals to change it in their liminoid literature. The Beats shared similarities with previous countercultures, and they influenced the following Hippie Generation.

Armed conflict may appear to be in long term decline, but the intractability and destructiveness of contemporary conflicts make conflict resolution as urgent and necessary as ever. The Contemporary Conflict Resolution Reader is the first comprehensive survey of the field as it has evolved over the last fifty years, bringing together the seminal writings of its founders with the cutting-edge interventions of today’s leading exponents and practitioners. Drawing on their extensive experience and knowledge of conflict and peace research across the world, the editors have selected a rich and illuminating set of readings that offer a unique and accessible overview of the many different aspects of conflict resolution. The chapters range across prevention, nonviolence, constructive approaches, mediation, negotiation, reconciliation and peace-building. Each one is framed by an editorial introduction and the readings are helpfully broken up into the following sections: reflective pieces, guides to practice, case studies and tools for learning. Covering classical and contemporary ideas, the Reader includes extracts which mark the continued innovation, relevance and dynamism of the field globally. Whether used on its own or as a companion to the hugely popular Contemporary Conflict Resolution, this Reader will be an invaluable resource for students and teachers of peace and conflict research, politics and international relations, as well as practitioners working in the field. While acknowledging the scale of the challenges ahead, this inspiring collection suggests a hopeful and practical vision of the way forward for conflict resolution in the 21st century.
