When Enemies Become More than Friends -- THEY WIN In her first trial by fire, Cordelia Naismith captained a throwaway ship of the Betan Expeditionary Force on a mission to destroy an enemy armada. Discovering deception within deception, treachery within treachery, she was forced into a separate peace with her chief opponent, Lord Aral Vorkosigan -- he who was called "The Butcher of Komarr" -- and would consequently become an outcast on her own planet and the Lady Vorkosigan on his. Sick of combat and betrayal, she was ready to settle down to a quiet life, interrupted only by the occasional ceremonial appearances required of the Lady Vorkosigan. But when the Emperor died, Aral became guardian of the infant heir to the imperial throne of Barrayar -- and the target of high-tech assassins in a dynastic civil war that was reminiscent of Earth's Middle Ages, but fought with up-to-the minute biowar technology. Neither Aral nor Cordelia guessed the part that their cell-damaged unborn would play in Barrayari's bloody legacy.

Shakespeare, as well as the reading, translating, teaching, criticizing, performing, and adapting of Shakespeare, does not exist outside culture. Culture in its many varieties not only informs the Shakespearean corpus, productions, and scholarship, but is also reciprocally shaped by them. Culture never remains stable, but constantly evolves, travels, procreates, blends, and mutates; no less incessantly, the understanding and rewriting of Shakespeare fluctuates. The relations between Shakespeare and culture thus comprise a dynamic flux which calls for examination and reexamination. It is this rich and even labyrinthine network of meanings—intercultural, intertextual, and intergeneric—that this volume intends to explicate. The essays collected here, most of them first presented at the Fourth Conference of the National Taiwan University Shakespeare Forum held in Taipei in 2009, cover a wide range of topics—religion, philosophy, history, aesthetics, as well as politics—and thereby illustrate how fruitfully complex the topic of cultural interchange can be.

Sibling rivalry reaches new heights when two sisters set their caps at the same marquess in a suspenseful romance by the New York Times–bestselling author. Harriet Clifton resents her widowed sister’s wealth, but spending the season at Cordelia’s luxurious London townhouse is her only hope for finding a good man to rescue her from her own hardworking yet penniless existence in the countryside. Then the rakish Marquess of Arden resists conceited Cordelia’s flirtations in favor of her less fortunate sibling, and romantic intrigue leads to a battle royale—and some unexpected danger—in this historical romance originally published under the name Marion Chesney, praised as “the best of the Regency writers” (Kirkus Reviews).

Kota always knew he was a Prince by chance, not by blood as he arrived at the castle at a young age before the Queen took him into her family. Suddenly everything he knew changed in an instant. One day he receives a mysterious letter from an unknown sender with information about his mother. After answering the letter, he not only drags himself but those around him into an ancient mystery long forgotten. In this ancient world of swords and arrows, there are those who can call upon the powers of the elements. These elemental users are named Callers. Callers can create a flash of fire with a snap of their fingers while others can mold the earth to their will. Kota was not born with the power to call upon the elements but that does not mean he is not a capable fighter. Kota, including his allies, get caught in a plot that is orchestrated by an enemy that is smart as they are deadly. Those who who stand with him will have to use more than metal and callings to fight a mysterious foe that threatens everything they know.

'A spicy work of biographical conjecture ... It's also a rousing reminder of the countless creative women who have been written out of history or have had to fight relentlessly to make themselves heard.' EVENING STANDARD 'The great virtue of Lloyd Malcolm's speculative history lies in its passion and anger: it ends with a blazing address to the audience that is virtually a call to arms. It is throughout, however, a highly theatrical piece ... In rescuing Emilia from the shades, [the play] gives her dramatic life and polemical potency.' GUARDIAN The little we know of Emilia Bassano Lanier (1569 - 1645) is that she may have been the Dark Lady of Shakespeare's Sonnets, mistress of Lord Chamberlain, one of the first English female poets to be published, a mother, teacher who founded a school for women, and radical feminist with North African ancestry. Living at a time when women had such limited opportunities, Emilia Lanier is therefore a fascinating subject for this speculative history. In telling her story, Morgan Lloyd Malcolm represents the stories of women everywhere whose narratives have been written out of history. Originally commissioned for Shakespeare's Globe with an all-female cast, Emilia is published here as a Methuen Drama Student Edition with commentary and notes by Elizabeth Schafer, Professor of Drama at Royal Holloway, University of London, UK.
