Women, Violence, and Testimony in the Works of Zora Neale Hurston
Zora Neale Hurston produced some of the most provocative literature of the twentieth century. This book examines the numerous scenes of violence against women in her fictional works and the development of her feminist ideals. This groundbreaking book is the first full-length discussion of Hurston's repetitive rendering of violently controlled women. It gives significant insight into why Hurston's themes often questioned the power dynamics of heterosexual relationships. It also explores the effect of death and loss on Hurston's life and reveals intertwined relationships between writing and healing.

Recently retired from full-time ministry and hoping to see the world while serving God, Pastor James Atterley leaves his home in South Carolina with his wife, Candace, and joins the mysterious Majestic Waves Cruises as a chaplain. Instead of the adventurous retirement they had planned, Atterley discovers that all is not right on their ship, the Grand Rapina. As the ship fills with refugees looking for a new start in the United States, it becomes clear that safety is the last thing to be found onboard. While hunger and pirates plague the ship, it is the machinations of the Grand Rapina's crew that prove there is true evil sailing the seas. Pastor Atterley must navigate these troubled spiritual waters, weighing the faith and ethics of a lifetime against the needs of each new moment of terror. This is the emotionally intense story of the moral courage that emerges in the heart of a faithful man who has never been so tested by problems of social justice, and how he navigates through an ocean of uncertainty with only his imperfect commitment to an inscrutable God to guide him. For adult readers of literary fiction. Text includes study questions for book clubs, small groups, and classrooms. Recommended by Kirkus Reviews."A textured, riveting portrait of a good man caught in a horrifying situation. Our verdict: GET IT."

What would you do if an angel came to live with you in your hour of need? In this literary fantasy that readers describe as "GLORIOUS" and "UNIQUE," the angel Gabriel writes his memoir to recount his early spiritual formation on Earth with the Hanson family. Sent in 2015 by the Trinity to the Philadelphia suburbs as a guardian for a grieving boy, Gabriel, himself, grows up before traveling back through the ages to announce Christ's birth. "Mixing the lighthearted with the dire, this family story makes for a brief though nuanced look at the human condition." Kirkus Reviews

In 1969, a thirteen year old girl was abducted while walking to a friend's house. Two weeks later, 8 miles from her home, a dog carried home a shoe containing the foot of the missing girl. Her killer was never found. That much we know. That much is true.8 Miles from Home is based on this true cold case in my hometown in Tennessee. Fictional characters were introduced into the story with a surprise conclusion solving the 48-year-old crime. The names have been changed, and the actual details of the cold case have been presented respectfully and minimally. The main character, Glynn Montgomery, is a 36-year-old local gal who stumbled upon the cold case by accident. She soon discovers that her family, prominent and deeply rooted in the community, has ties to the abduction and death of the missing 13-year-old. Information coerced from the old guys at Lillian's Cafe leads her on a quest to find the truth...no matter where it might take her.

A Descriptive Catalogue of the Musical Manuscript Collection of the National Library of Greece
The National Library of Greece (Ethnike Bibliothike tes Ellados) is one of the richest depositories of Byzantine musical manuscripts and is surpassed by its holdings in Greece only by the multitude of manuscripts found in the monasteries of Mount Athos. In spite of being such a rich archive, the National Library has never published a catalogue of its musical manuscripts - not all of which are Byzantine or Greek. It is the purpose of this catalogue to recover or, in some instances, to present for the first time the repertory of the musical sources of the library. This project has been twelve years in the making for Professor Diane Touliatos, involving the discovery and detailed cataloguing of all 241 Western, Ancient Greek, and Byzantine music manuscripts. Not all of these are from Athens or modern Greece, but also encompass Turkey, the Balkans, Italy, Cyprus, and parts of Western Europe. This variety underlines the importance of the catalogue for identifying composers, music and performance practice of different locales. The catalogue includes a detailed listing of the contents as written in the original language as well as the titles of compositions (and/or incipits) with composers, modal signatures, other attributions and information on performance practice. Each manuscript entry includes a commentary in English indicating important highlights and its significance. There is a substantive English checklist that summarizes the contents of each manuscript for non-Greek readers. A bibliography follows containing pertinent citations where the manuscript has been used in references. There is also a glossary that defines terms for the non-specialist. Examples of some of the manuscripts will be photographically displayed. The catalogue will enlighten musicologists and Byzantinists of the rich and varied holdings of some of the most important musical manuscripts in existence, and stimulate more interest and investigation of these sources. As such, it will fill a major gap in the bibliography of Byzantine chant and other musical studies.

Combining architectural and social history, this open access book tells for the first time the in-depth story of Scotland’s new towns.One of the most significant episodes in modern architectural, urban and social history, Scotland’s postwar new towns offered new housing, new ways of life and new jobs. Begun between the late 1940s and the late 1960s, the new towns – East Kilbride, Glenrothes, Cumbernauld, Livingston and Irvine – were a key element of the planned Welfare State, attracting international attention and widespread publicity. These were places of architectural innovation, and economic and social change.Building Modern Scotland tells a new history of the new towns, combining architectural and social history to illustrate what was planned, what was built, and how these places were experienced by the communities who lived and worked in them. It positions the new towns at the heart of modern Scottish history, showing how they represented an ambition to make a modern, transformed nation. The book surveys each new town’s planning and design before turning to key topics such as housing, family life, work and opportunity, and community. Drawing on archives and oral history, the book will appeal to historians of modern architecture and design as well as readers interested in modern social history. It provides a new account of modern Scotland, its buildings, places and people, and argues that a better understanding of the new towns’ history and value should inform present-day decision-making.The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.
