Rehder's study examines the use of metaphor in three of America's greatest poets. Wallace Stevens, William Carlos Williams and Hart Crane are looked at in turn, their views on metaphor discussed and their use of metaphor in their poems analyzed. Considering Aristotle and Derrida, and taking account of recent theoretical work, Rehder offers an interpretation of why metaphor is fundamental to our thinking and to poetry.
Seven Starts of Midnight is an epic fantasy thriller centered on a world at the brink of darkness. The forces of evil, festering for centuries, erupt and seven heroes are called to save the world and rebuild the goodness of the earth. Gathered together from all parts of the known world, our heroes lay their individual desires aside to become part of the adventure and by doing so build something new and worthy of praise. In building fantasy worlds we find that, while topography changes, the essence of our humanity seems to transcend the enchanted vistas of the imagination. Elf, dwarf or strange eagle does not impede the human message of courage. Wars come and go but heroes last forever in the hearts of those they serve.
