DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book is an exposé on how America is responding to tumultuous activities since her founding. It has become obvious to most Americans that their nation has hit the crossroads of a paradigm of events. The author, on the other hand, as a member of this society began to study intensely what was going on and what effects people were going through when the standing president Barack Obama would say one thing and then do exactly the opposite through executive fiat. The stealing of documents by former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, her use of her own personal server for the dispersal of departmental and top secret emails is astounding. Advanced knowledge of a terrorist attack is one thing; however, it remains a quagmire when both the secretary of state as well as the president concoct lies to trick and fool the American people. The crucial notion of the system of checks and balances on each branch of government is lost without US Constitutional oversight. Therefore, when one finds that the Internal Revenue Service or a former director of the FBI is found operating for another person’s charitable foundation who just so happens to be running for the Office of the President is disastrous. America is not unlike any other nation on earth; however, when people are given the power to live above the law in a “rule of law” established and guaranteed in a nation, that is when someone needs to write a book about the discovery.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAn authoritative review of literary biography covering the seventeenth century to the twentieth century A Companion to Literary Biography offers a comprehensive account of literary biography spanning the history of the genre across three centuries. The editor – an esteemed literary biographer and noted expert in the field – has encouraged contributors to explore the theoretical and methodological questions raised by the writing of biographies of writers. The text examines how biographers have dealt with the lives of classic authors from Chaucer to contemporary figures such as Kingsley Amis. The Companion brings a new perspective on how literary biography enables the reader to deal with the relationship between the writer and their work. Literary biography is the most popular form of writing about writing, yet it has been largely neglected in the academic community. This volume bridges the gap between literary biography as a popular genre and its relevance for the academic study of literature. This important work: Allows the author of a biography to be treated as part of the process of interpretation and investigates biographical reading as an important aspect of criticism Examines the birth of literary biography at the close of the seventeenth century and considers its expansion through the eighteenth, nineteenth and twentieth centuries Addresses the status and writing of literary biography from numerous perspectives and with regard to various sources, methodologies and theories Reviews the ways in which literary biography has played a role in our perception of writers in the mainstream of the English canon from Chaucer to the present day Written for students at the undergraduate level, through postgraduate and doctoral levels, as well as academics, A Companion to Literary Biography illustrates and accounts for the importance of the literary biography as a vital element of criticism and as an index to our perception of literary history.
