The image above is a detail of a Red-Figure Cup showing the death of Pentheus (exterior) and a Maenad (interior), painted c. ![]() All this happened because Pentheus had denied the divinity of his cousin Dionysus, known to the audience as god of wine, theatre, fertility and religious ecstasy. The action seen or described on stage was brutal: Pentheus, king of Thebes, is torn into pieces by his mother in a Bacchic frenzy and his grandparents condemned to crawl away as snakes. Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss Euripides' great tragedy, which was first performed in Athens in 405 BC when the Athenians were on the point of defeat and humiliation in a long war with Sparta. ![]() ![]() Pilcher's novel September includes the character of Noel Keeling, son of Penelope. Much of the forward impetus of the novel involves the work of her father, including a painting called The Shell Seekers, given to Penelope as a wedding present. Penelope's life from young womanhood to the present is revealed in pieces, from her own point of view and those of her children. When the novel opens, Penelope is in her 60s and has just been discharged from the hospital after what was seemingly a heart attack. Shifting in time, the novel tells the story of Penelope Keeling, the daughter of unconventional parents (an artist father and his much-younger French wife), examining her past and her relationships with her adult children. The novel sold more than five million copies worldwide, and was adapted for the stage and as a film for television twice. In Germany the novel is called Die Muschelsucher and was also in the top 100 novels. ![]() It was nominated by the British public in 2003 as one of the top 100 novels in the BBC's Big Read. ![]() ![]() ![]() It became one of her most famous best-sellers. The Shell Seekers is a 1987 novel by Rosamunde Pilcher. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() He describes a form of indoctrination that happens when people use familiar turns of phrase in political speech. One of his main arguments is that repetitions derive from unoriginal thinking and unoriginal thinking leads to repetitions. On the contrary, Orwell feels that old, dead words should be abandoned, as he argues for original and independent thinking that comes from asserting agency in language-specifically in political speech. The essay is not, as it might at first glance appear, a defense of archaic or traditionally “proper” uses of English. It presents an argument for clear, simple, unpretentious language that attempts to represent its meaning-hence the unambiguous title. ![]() The essay is about the connection between politics and poor uses of language. Fittingly, George Orwell's essay “ Politics and the English Language” is accurately described by its title. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This is definitely a book where you need to have read the first novel to properly appreciate what’s going on and who these people are. So, did this next novel drag our characters back from the edge? Read on and find out. When I reviewed the previous novel in this series, I offered up a little caution to those readers who dislike cliff-hangers, while confessing that I’m generally content to wait and find out what happens next, no matter how perilous the situation our characters are left in on the last page.

People responded enthusiastically to the request and sincerely to their fatwa. The Ulema issued a fatwa for Jihad for eliminating the risk of foreigners dominating the Muslim community. In this qualitative study, which was prepared by the hermeneutic method, we tried to answer this question, “what is the role of ulama in contemporary developments in Iranian society?” The result was that during the wars of Iran and Russia, the Qajars demanded the participation of ulama in war due to the despair of internal and external factors. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() She draws from her own experiences of illness and bodily injury to engage in an exploration that extends far beyond her life, spanning wide-ranging territory-from poverty tourism to phantom diseases, street violence to reality television, illness to incarceration-in its search for a kind of sight shaped by humility and grace. From personal loss to phantom diseases, The Empathy Exams is a bold and brilliant collection winner of the Graywolf Press Nonfiction Prize.īeginning with her experience as a medical actor who was paid to act out symptoms for medical students to diagnose, Leslie Jamison’s visceral and revealing essays ask essential questions about our basic understanding of others: How should we care about each other? How can we feel another’s pain, especially when pain can be assumed, distorted, or performed? Is empathy a tool by which to test or even grade each other? By confronting pain-real and imagined, her own and others’-Jamison uncovers a personal and cultural urgency to feel. ![]() ![]() ![]() The second story concerns Scout and Jem's father, the attorney Atticus Finch. Unexpectedly, Boo reciprocates their interest with a series of small gifts, until he ultimately steps off his porch and into their lives when they need him most. ![]() Scout, Jem, and their next-door neighbor Dill engage in pranks, trying to make Boo show himself. ![]() The first plot revolves around Arthur "Boo" Radley, who lives in a shuttered house down the street from the Finches and is rumored to be some kind of monster. The book's two plots inch forward along parallel tracks, only converging near the end. This echoes the way the whole book unfolds-in no special hurry, with lifelike indirection. ![]() The novel opens with the adult Jean Louise "Scout" Finch writing, "When he was nearly thirteen, my brother Jem got his arm badly broken at the elbow." By the time Jem finally gets around to breaking his arm more than 250 pages later most readers will have forgotten they were ever warned. Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird begins at the end. Few novels so appealingly evoke the daily world of childhood in a way that seems convincing whether you are 16 or 66. Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird is the rare American novel that can be discovered with excitement in adolescence and reread into adulthood without fear of disappointment. ![]() |
