DOWNLOAD EBOOKOppositional Voices is a study of six women writers in the late Elizabethan period, who, ignoring Renaissance society's injunction that women should confine themselves to religious compositions, wrote and translated poetry, drama and romantic fiction. Tina Krontiris brings together their work, including at times their voiced opposition to certain oppressive ideas and stereotypes. Rather than simply glorify these voices, her study subtly probes the influence of a culture inimical to female creative activity on the writings of these women.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKReformed bad girl Brianna Rhodes is unhappy in her life as the wife of Dr. Michael Rhodes, a young influential pastor, motivational speaker and author who has risen to fame after taking over his father's ministry. While she has a few friends who are among Atlanta's 'gospel elite', her worldly ways continue to make people (especially her mother-in-law) question whether or not she is an appropriate partner for her husband. Feeling like Michael is more dedicated to touring and ministry and tired of his gift apologies, Brianna gives him the repeated ultimatum to choose between his work and their family. When Brianna's temptations get beyond what she can bear, she learns that she might not be able to find a way to stand above it, while realizing she might be as in control as she thought she was. Her decisions to fill the void could have severe repercussions on her family, friends and life. Brianna's story is the first in Arthia Nixon's Pastors' Wives series.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKMargaret Tyler's Mirror of Princely Deeds and Knighthood is a groundbreaking work, being the first English romance penned by a woman and the first English romance to be translated directly from Spanish. As such it is not only a landmark in the history of Anglo-Spanish literary relations, but it is also a milestone in the evolution of the romance genre and in the development of women's writing in England. Yet notwithstanding its seminal status, this is the only critical edition of Tyler's romance. This modernized edition is preceded by an introduction which meticulously investigates Tyler's translation methodology, her biography, her proto-feminism, and her religious affiliations. In addition, it situates Mirror within the context of English romance production and reading, female authorship, and the Elizabethan and Jacobean translation of Spanish romance. This edition will be of interest to scholars of gender studies and of English and Spanish Renaissance literature.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAmber Davis will do anything for her young son, even something as crazy as beg a dragon for sanctuary from her abusive husband. All she needs to do is step foot on Elysia South soil and no one, not even the US government can touch her. Which is great because her husband is the son of a senator, and he has promised to see her dead and her parents ruined before he allows her to run off with their son. Dragon shifter Raphek is patrolling near the energy shield at the edge of his kingdom when he witnesses a Terran woman and her child being hunted by several Terran men. He has no idea that saving them will set off perhaps the largest political bomb between his kingdom and the US that may trigger a war unless King Dagon gives over mother and child to the very man that has sworn to kill her. Love should be the last thing on their minds, but neither one can deny the burning attraction that grows daily between them, not to mention the fierce protective instincts that all Draknos have for children that awakens within Raphek and won’t be ignored. Can Amber and Raphek find a solution to their impossible dilemma or will Amber have to submit to the demands of her husband’s powerful family for the sake of peace? Contains mature content, language, and hot dragon shifters. This is a complete story with a HEA.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe first-ever critical anthology of the death arts in Renaissance England, this book draws together over 60 extracts and 20 illustrations to establish and analyse how people grappled with mortality in the 16th and 17th centuries. As well as providing a comprehensive resource of annotated and modernized excerpts, this engaging study includes commentary on authors and overall texts, discussions of how each excerpt is constitutive and expressive of the death arts, and suggestions for further reading. The extended Introduction takes into account death's intersections with print, gender, sex, and race, surveying the period's far-reaching preoccupation with, and anticipatory reflection upon, the cessation of life. For researchers, instructors, and students interested in medieval and early modern history and literature, the Reformation, memory studies, book history, and print culture, this indispensable resource provides at once an entry point into the field of early modern death studies and a springboard for further research.
