In Reports of My Death: Beyond-the-Grave Confessions of North American Writers, author Gerry Christmas taps into a literary limbo where he relives the lives of writers in an endless cycle of introspection. Sixty-five ?autobiographies? tell you ? How Mark Twain Americanized the English language and put a human face on the slave trade. How Edgar Allan Poe came up with the basic theory of relativity fifty years before Albert Einstein. How Walt Whitman used his poetic genius to make people more loving and less homophobic. How Emily Dickinson did not live a life devoid of adventure and romance. How Henry David Thoreau inspired Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King. How Herman Melville anticipated the thoughts and ideas of Sigmund Freud. How Kate Chopin portrayed adultery with a sympathetic eye and was ostracized for doing so.

An unexpected transfer lands Jonathan Martin a banking job in the Sheikdom of Dahra. From day one, he discovers that not all is at it seems on the surface. This is his story, a narration of significant events as they happened to him. In a word, his story is a series of adventures, about some of which the world is yet not supposed to know. Many of these events are metaphors for the twists and turns of modern life. At one and the same time, Jonathan Martin can be regarded as both a hero and a villain. The choice lies in the eye of the discerning reader.

Moral Combat

Moral Combat

Gerry Milligan

University of Toronto Press

The Italian sixteenth century offers the first sustained discussion of women’s militarism since antiquity. Across a variety of genres, male and female writers raised questions about women’s right and ability to fight in combat. Treatise literature engaged scientific, religious, and cultural discourses about women’s virtues, while epic poetry and biographical literature famously featured examples of women as soldiers, commanders, observers, and victims of war. Moral Combat asks how and why women’s militarism became one of the central discourses of this age. Gerry Milligan discusses the armed heroines of biography and epic within the context of contemporary debates over women’s combat abilities and men’s martial obligations. Women are frequently described as fighting because men have failed their masculine duty. A woman’s prowess at arms was asserted to be a cultural symptom of men’s shortcomings. Moral Combat ultimately argues that the popularity of the warrior woman in sixteenth-century Italian literature was due to her dual function of shame and praise: calling men to action and signaling potential victory to a disempowered people.
