A provocative, raucous dark comedy about race and racism in America, now back in print after twenty-five years and with a new preface by the author. Darius James's scabrous, unapologetically raunchy, and truly hilarious and scary Negrophobia collides head-on with the hydra-headed phenomenon of American racism. A screenplay for the mind, a performance on the page, a work of poetry, a mad mix of genres and styles, a novel in the tradition of William S. Burroughs and Ishmael Reed that is like no other, Negrophobia begins with the blond bombshell Bubbles Brazil succumbing to a voodoo spell and entering the inner darkness of her own shiny being. Here crackheads parade in the guise of Muppets, Muslims beat conga drums, Negroes have numbers for names, and H Rap Remus demands the total and instantaneous extermination of the white race through spontaneous combustion. By the end of it, after going on a weird trip for the ages, Bubbles is strangely transformed.

Blasphemy and Other Ancestors is comprised of four novellas, in which authors Padgett Powell, Darius James, Lee Henderson, and Jean Marc Ah-Sen explore the tag end of existence and the abasements that memory holds in store for characters living "outside of their time." In Blasphemy and Other Ancestors, a Southern man of letters tries to instruct his assistant on the matters of the heart, a self-centered telephile recounts how his aunt taught him about the world beyond his T.V. set, an avant-garde filmmaker is haunted by a Nazi persecutor at the 1974 Cannes Film Festival, and a sundowner discovers that a writer recording the events of his life holds the secret to his ability to remember his past lives.
I Know Who I Am is a children's book of 26 strategic affirmations that will positively impact the mental and emotional health of every child, especially Black/Brown children. This book is a tool to help parents shape a positive self-outlook and promote self-love in their children. From loving the skin that they are in to declaring that they can be just as bold as a mighty lion, this book is a dynamic weapon against limiting mindsets, self-hatred, depressive emotions, and a lack of self-worth at a very early age. I Know Who I Am is not just a book, but it is a tool that speaks identity over our children. In a world where stereotypes, biases, and labeling is present, now more than ever, our children need to hear an amplified voice that speaks greatness over them Parents, educators, and mentors, let this book be a tool that you use to teach your children identity. Make these affirmations a daily, morning, and nightly routine; declare these affirmations on your way to school and after school. Let's make our children identity-proof, where nothing and no one will ever be able to shake their identity because THEY KNOW WHO THEY ARE
Award for Outstanding Michigan History Publication Private Printing by the Michigan Historical Society in 2016. Darius Bartlett Moon was, in the truest sense, an embodiment of a Renaissance man. Born into an agricultural family in 1851, Moon left the farm and apprenticed as a carpenter. Eventually he attended classes at a local business school and began his career as an architect. In 19th century Michigan, an architect was not subject to the same requirements as they are today and many architects apprenticed under an established architectural firm to learn the trade. Darius Moon took a different path and became a self-taught architect. His years working as a carpenter and contractor enabled him to see firsthand the problems that poor architectural design could cause.Because Moon was self-taught, he was occasionally self-conscious about his abilities which lead him to be a demanding and ever present supervisor at construction sites. This is typically an uncommon role for an architect, and in Moons' day, resulted in several injuries at building sites. On February 8, 1877 Moon married the love of his life, Miss Ellen Sprague. They had four children who became the center of his world. Moon had a softer side not seen by the contractors with whom he worked, and also wrote on a daily basis, mostly poetry with a healthy dose of prose. Additionally, he engaged in property development and several business ventures. Moon's legacy includes several significant houses in Lansing and Michigan, many of which are still standing, including the Rogers Carrier home on the campus of Lansing Community College, the Woodbury home in East Lansing (now the Howland House, a student co-op), the Turner Dodge home and the Stebbins cottage overlooking Lake Michigan. There are also some that are lost to history including the Ransom E. Olds mansion, Henry Kositchek's house and the Homer D. Luce residence. Awarded the 2016 honor for Outstanding Michigan History Publication Private Printing by the Michigan Historical Society.
In this study, James Jordan argues why the Persian kings named Darius, Ahasuerus, and Artaxerxes in the books of Ezra, Nehemiah, and Esther are one and the same. This is not a new understanding. Many recent commentators are so certain that Ahasuerus is the king the Greeks called Xerxes and that Artaxerxes is Artaxerxes Longimanus. James Jordan, however, demonstrates that the common identifications of these kings is problematic and that understanding their common identity sheds considerable light on our understanding of redemptive history.Excerpt from Darius, Artaxerxes, and Ahasuerus in the Bible "If my thesis is correct, then several things emerge. First, it becomes clear that there was no 'decree to rebuild Jerusalem' issued by Artaxerxes Longimanus, because that later Artaxerxes is not the Artaxerxes (Darius) of Nehemiah. Thus, the 'word' spoken of in Daniel 9:25 must be the decree of Cyrus. Second, it becomes clear that, just as Cyrus was a new David, so Darius is a new Solomon. It is Darius who builds the Temple, Darius-Artaxerxes who builds Jerusalem, and Darius-Ahasuerus who marries a Jewish bride and protects the Jewish people, which creates a broad analogy between the books of Esther and Song of Solomon. Third, assuming for a moment that Chronicles-Ezra-Nehemiah were designed as one book with one story, then the plan of that large book becomes clear: the progression from David to Solomon to his wayward successors is rehearsed as a typological foundation for the new historical progression from Cyrus to Darius to their wayward successors in both empire and land."

Denna bok handlar om vad som gör den moderna romanen modern. James Joyce visste detta bättre än de flesta. Han var en tidningsslukare av stora mått, och Ulysses vore otänkbar utan denna omättliga hunger - såväl innehållsligt som formmässigt. Oktober 1904 till mars 1905: den medellöse irländske författaren upptäcker mitt i den habsburgska monarkins falnande glans ett nytt sätt att berätta som kommer att revolutionera romankonsten. Sara Danius är litteraturhistoriker, kritiker och essäist. Tidigare böcker: »Prousts motor« (2000), »The senses of modernism: technology, perception, and aesthetics« (2002), »The prose of the world: Flaubert and the art of making things visible« (2006), »Proust-Benjamin: om fotografin« (2011) och »Den blå tvålen« (2013). Hanns Zischler är författare, översättare, film- och litteraturkritiker. Han är också en av Tysklands mest kända skådespelare. År 1996 utkom hans bok »Kafka går på bio«, som översatts till flera språk. »Det djupt tilltalande med den här essän, som dessutom tryfferas med en mängd fotografier och tidningsklipp, är den lekfulla lättheten med vilken den ger en initierad kulturhistorisk inblick i Joyces verk.« Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung »Det är en fröjd att följa de här två författarnas intelligenta lek.« Buchkultur
