April 21, 1806, the nine months' journey is complete, and they land at Madras. Mr. Martyn gives first impressions and description of the natives, ending in these words: "In general, one thought naturally occurred: the conversion of their poor souls. I am willing, I trust, through grace, to pass my life among them if by any means these poor people may be brought to God. The sight of men, women and children, all idolaters, makes me shudder as if in the dominions of the prince of darkness. Hearing the hymn, 'Before Jehovah's awful throne, ' it excited a train of affecting thoughts in my mind."

Life of Henry Martyn, Missionary to India and Persia, 1781 to 1812 is a classic religious biography by Sarah J. Rhea. I hold in my hand an album adorned with pictures of missionaries, my brethren and sisters, the ambassadors of the King. On one of the first pages is "the tomb of Henry Martyn," given me by Dr. Van Lennep, who had just visited the sacred spot and described it vividly. When I turn the pages of my album and come to this, I pause with reverence and the overflowings of deep and tender emotion, and my mind adds other pictures, both terrestrial and celestial, to the one upon the page.

I Am Sarah...Standing: A Memoir of a Victim of Sexual Assault in the Dallas Legal Community
Sexual violence has permeated every level of society: family, community, schools, universities, workplace, institutions of faith, military and even the criminal justice system. This memoir provides a transparent view of one survivor's journey through workplace sexual victimization in the legal community and the devastating obstacles placed in the path of justice. We are inundated with stories in the media which often include the same characters like a recurring stage play-the abuser, the victim and those who enable the abuse. However, so many tragic stories go unreported and will never reach media attention or reported to the authorities. Even if one feels helpless to change the situation, perhaps a few tools will enable the reader to possibly stop the bleeding wound of even one person that crosses their path by shining the light of truth and refusing to join the pack with hateful comments directed at a brave human.There are countless individuals that are victims of workplace sexual harassment and assault who are in hiding and wearing the mask of false shame and guilt in plain view. This mask is worn as they know, not just in their hearts, but can see it all throughout the media that those who stand up for themselves face debilitating scrutiny. They know they will have to face immense challenges. Challenges that require knowledge and assistance from the legal community. The issues they are facing are often too complex for regular advocacy and they need the expertise and partnership of effective legal advocacy. And yet, where does one find the help? Especially when the same community entrusted to protect the rights of sexual trauma victims shields and enables a power player in the legal community to avoid the consequences of his actions. It is time to speak up.
Dramatic Disgust – Aesthetic Theory and Practice from Sophocles to Sarah Kane
Aesthetic disgust is a key component of most classic works of drama because it has much more potential than to simply shock the audience. This first extensive study on dramatic disgust places this sensation among pity and fear as one of the core emotions that can achieve katharsis in drama. The book sets out in antiquity and traces the history of dramatic disgust through Kant, Freud, and Kristeva to Sarah Kane's in-yer-face theatre. It establishes a framework to analyze forms and functions of disgust in drama by investigating its different cognates (miasma, abjection, etc.). Providing a concise argument against critics who have discredited aesthetic disgust as juvenile attention-grabbing, Sarah J. Ablett explains how this repulsive emotion allows theatre to dig deeper into what it means to be human.

There has been little sustained consideration of the ways in which human rights act to safeguard the individual from substantive unfairness or injustice in the imposition of punishment. Human rights might be expected to play a pivotal role at the sentencing stage, regulating the process and substance of sentencing, mapping out the state's role, and affording it legitimacy in the imposition of punishment. The traditional view that sentencing theory is best understood as a branch of moral philosophy has obscured the importance of consideration of the special nature of state punishment as mediated by and through law and the significance of human rights principles, notably legality, proportionality, equality, and judicial responsibility for the determination of the sentence. Sarah J Summers focusses on sentencing practices which are widespread across Europe and indeed further afield and their compatibility with constitutional or human rights principles. Sentencing and Human Rights develops a systematic account of the importance of human rights principles at sentencing stage. Consideration of these principles provides the basis for an examination of the way in which they might be expected to limit important sentencing practices, such as the imposition of aggravated sentences for previous convictions, the treatment of confessions and mandatory minimum sentences. It is not just that punishment follows a multitude of aims but rather that the balance of these aims may, and in the context of lengthy prison sentences almost certainly will, change during the sentence. This examination of the human rights limits on the sentence suggests that it might be necessary to reconsider the way in which state punishment is conceptualised in sentencing theory.
