Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I was ten when I started shaving my legs. My dark shin fur was hard to ignore in shorts weather, and my mother gave me a box from the Modess company. It was a my first period kit, and inside were samples of pads and panty liners. #2 I had menarche in 1981 when I was ten years old. I was very sympathetic, but I was also a little baffled. I had read the pamphlet How Shall I Tell My Daughter. but nowhere in it did it say that your period was not a blue liquid. #3 The author experienced car creepery at 13, when a man yelled Nice tits at her while she was walking home from school. She responded by yelling Suck my dick, which is not the moment she associates with entering womanhood. It was when she bought this kickass white denim suit at the Springfield mall. #4 I had a gynecology appointment in Chicago, and it was at a Planned Parenthood. I was taken to an examining room where a big butch nurse practitioner asked me if I was pregnant. I said no, and she took out a speculum the size of a milk shake machine. I fainted both times they tried to examine me.

Genre: Literary Criticism

This two-volume set surveys the profound impact of political humor and satire on American culture and politics over the years, paying special attention to the explosion of political humor in today's wide-ranging and turbulent media environment. Historically, there has been a tendency to regard political satire and humor as a sideshow to the wider world of American politics—entertaining and sometimes insightful, but ultimately only of modest interest to students and others surveying the trajectory of American politics and culture. This set documents just how mistaken that assumption is. By examining political humor and satire throughout US history, these volumes not only illustrate how expressions of political satire and humor reflect changes in American attitudes about presidents, parties, and issues but also how satirists, comedians, cartoonists, and filmmakers have helped to shape popular attitudes about landmark historical events, major American institutions and movements, and the nation's political leaders and cultural giants. Finally, this work examines how today's brand of political humor may be more influential than ever before in shaping American attitudes about the nation in which we live.

Working for Prima, an organization created to help right wrongs, she thought she was on the right side only to be manipulated by the leader of the company into stealing an ancient knife belonging to the one species on the planet that she had been avoiding at all costs...the Fey. It wasn't that she didn't like the Fey. Oh, she liked one particular Fey a little too much. It was her fear of those feelings that has had her keeping her distance.

With her friend's life on the line she must travel to Scotland, seduce a Prince, and try to steal one of his people's relics. Only, nothing goes as planned.

T. Calpurnius Siculus: A Pastoral Poet in Neronian Rome is the first ever detailed examination of the whole of Calpurnius' pastoral corpus in English. It aims to offer an overall picture of Calpurnius’ epigonal and generically transcending poetics and meta-poetics through a thorough comparative analysis of the generic interfaces between the bucolic host genre (as bequeathed to Siculus from Theocritus to Vergil) and various generic modes which operate in Calpurnius’ eclogues, such as epic, panegyric, elegiac, didactic/georgic. The analysis includes themes/motifs, intertexts and allusion, narrative sequences, diction and metre as well as meta-generic/meta-poetic signs, including Calpurnius' redirection and inversion of the Callimachean-neoteric poetological meta-language. The study’s interests also revolve around the ways in which Neronian ideology and imperial politics inform the pastoral narrative and often account for the formalistic change discerned as well as the manner in which Post-Classical diction functions as a targeted, self-conscious linguistic tell-tale of generic evolution. The book is intended for students or scholars working on or interested in Roman pastoral and its generic evolution as well as Neronian Literature.
