Why We Read, Why We Write: Literature to Inspire Composition features works of short fiction, primarily American, that provide a firm foundation in the study of literature, as well as a complete guide to writing research papers. Each chapter addresses an aspect of writing and highlights reading selections that serve as examples and prompts. Initially, students write on accessible topics such as character and setting. As their writing develops, they move on to explore symbolism, allegory, imagery, and descriptive language. Later chapters use literature to explore themes and motifs, including realism, lost youth, and rites of passage. Students consider satirical writing and how literature may be viewed through different theoretical lenses. The final chapter prepares students to write formal research papers, with information on citing sample works and using secondary sources. The second edition has been reorganized and restructured to better support student comprehension and retention in single-term courses. It also includes two new readings by Ralph Waldo Emerson and Richard Connell. Why We Read, Why We Write includes author biographies and a comprehensive glossary of literary terms. It is suitable for courses in composition, introductory fiction, and responding to literature.Kim M. Vanderlaan earned her Ph.D. in English at the University of Delaware. She teaches courses in American literature and composition at California University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Vanderlaan's professional writing has appeared in Journal of American Studies, The Explicator, American Literary Realism, Journal of American Culture, The Chronicle of Higher Education, Western American Literature, and Cather Studies.

Violence Against Women: Countering Historical and Contemporary Missteps on the Road to Social Justice

This book is an interdisciplinary look at historical and contemporary responses to violence against women. The authors also explore Crenshaw's three forms of intersectionality in the context of violence against minoritized women to capture patterns of advantage and disadvantage. They argue that this social problem cannot be fully understood without encompassing such integration.
Rebecka's tragic life begins in seventeenth century colonial New England. The settlers struggled to establish villages throughout the beautiful landscapes of the newly discovered world. Pressures to survive and thrive in this environment are overwhelming. This was a time when it was dangerous to be born a girl. Will Rebecka survive both childbearing and the oppressive society rules. Superstitious fears are the cause of many societal mistakes as Rebecka struggles with the unthinkable loss of her family members. Spirituality factors into this haunting story and is mixed with religion. Rebecka's Birth of a Soldier is a thought-provoking memoir of one woman's struggle for justice and equality nearly three hundred years before woman had neither. This book is based on the life of the author's ancestor, but it is a work of fiction. The details in this story are the imagination of the author.

Following the death of her twin son and out of the depths of heartache, Kim found Hope. She is determined that others find Him also. We hear of Noahs ark and wonder at how so many animals could fit into the vessel. We are amazed that Jonah was inside the whale for 3 days. But we mostly miss this: How did the animals know to go to the ark? How did they know where the ark was located? How did the whale get to the right location, at the right time, in order to get Jonah? Who told them? This revised edition includes the extraordinary testimony of the author and her personal glimpses of God.
"I was expecting a throne made from the skulls of your enemies.""It can be arranged." I'm not saying the entire magical population of North Yorkshire want us dead. Just the majority. Which is why we fled Leeds to hide out in the dubious safety of the seaside town of Whitby, where no one should've been looking for us. But lying low isn't really in our skillset, and when one of our few remaining friends is taken by the sea, we can't just walk away. We've got to get her back. Especially as her partner is a reaper with a scythe that can slice through reality, and the whole situation might be a teeny, tiny bit our fault. We're not going after Emma alone, though. We've got a one-eyed pirate captain, a bloodthirsty parrot, and a deeply dodgy mermaid, and not even the storm of the century is going to get in our way. The Black Dogs, the kraken cult, and the Sea Witch, on the other hand, might be a bit of a problem. Leeds is looking better by the moment ... This is the sixth book in the Gobbelino London, PI urban fantasy series, centred around the adventures of a mercenary feline PI and his human sidekick. It contains snarky cats and other gods, many bad jokes and terrible puns, plus a large serving of mythological and real creatures behaving badly. It will appeal to anyone who likes their fantasy funny, modern, and filled with friendship rather than romance - and also to those who suspect their cat may be living a great and secret life when they're not looking. A Menace of Mermaids contains some violence, particularly involving mermaids with a grudge and threatening kraken, but none of it is graphic. It contains no sex and only mild language. It does, however, contain blasphemy.
