The idea of the past, far from suggesting a nostalgic longing or an antiquarian curiosity for ages and cultures irrevocably lost, is essential to the human perception of the world. The volume at hand, entitled In the Mists of Time: Negotiating the Past in Ancient Literature, explores pastness as expressed through myth and early history and as reflected in sophisticated concepts and epistemological questions in Ancient Greek and Latin literature. The eighteen contributions illustrate how the ancients addressed the past through poetry, history and philosophy and lend insight into the metaliterary, self-reflexive way of dealing with past texts through scholarship.

The magical saga of the women behind King Arthur's throne. “A monumental reimagining of the Arthurian legends . . . reading it is a deeply moving and at times uncanny experience. . . . An impressive achievement.”—The New York Times Book Review In Marion Zimmer Bradley's masterpiece, we see the tumult and adventures of Camelot's court through the eyes of the women who bolstered the king's rise and schemed for his fall. From their childhoods through the ultimate fulfillment of their destinies, we follow these women and the diverse cast of characters that surrounds them as the great Arthurian epic unfolds stunningly before us. As Morgaine and Gwenhwyfar struggle for control over the fate of Arthur's kingdom, as the Knights of the Round Table take on their infamous quest, as Merlin and Viviane wield their magics for the future of Old Britain, the Isle of Avalon slips further into the impenetrable mists of memory, until the fissure between old and new worlds' and old and new religions' claims its most famous victim.

Diana Dearborn knows all about romance, at least in the books she writes. But passion eludes her in real life—until she's offered the chance to travel back in time to Camelot. The world of King Arthur and Guinevere is nothing like she pictured, neither is the knight she encounters on her return to San Francisco: Gawain, the hero of her current project. He's complicated, mysterious, and sexier than anything her imagination could conjure. And he's been waiting for her... Now, joined together in a desperate race, Diana and Gawain must prevent an ancient, evil force from wreaking mayhem in the all-too-real present. Diana must learn to trust Gawain—even while she encounters secrets about her own past. But even if their mission succeeds, does Diana's destiny lie with this man from another time—and will their love alter history forever?

Since my beautiful salvation experience at fifty years of age, I commenced the Christian part of my career in the province of my birth, Ontario, Canada, where I enjoyed a five-year stint with 100 Huntley Street as head of the Security Counselling Department and where I was also blessed to attend and sit on the board of an Elim Fellowship Church, Faith Temple in downtown Toronto. Faith Temple was pastored by an outstanding man of God, Dr. Winston Nunes, who over his long career with The Assemblies Of God and with The Pentecostal Assemblies Of Canada and finally with Elim Fellowship became very well known and respected as both an evangelist and as an outstanding Bible teacher. Some of my poetry is based on teachings in his only published book, Driven by The Spirit. Allow me here to share a testimony to God's faithful guidance and direction when we commit our lives to Him. When God wonderfully rescued me from my lost condition, I was almost fifty years of age and about to lose my marriage of twenty-one years. Thankfully, God restored my marriage, which lasted until my first wife's death thirty-two years later in 2008. My association with Dr. Nunes followed, and as a church we released him annually on a speaking tour of churches all through western Canada and the United States. On a speaking engagement in 1978 at a Vancouver church called Glad Tidings, a very happily married fifty-three-year-old English mother of six was catapulted to the altar in response to Dr. Nunes invitation for salvation. To sum up, Dr. Nunes, my pastor in Toronto, Ont., was the instrument God used when he preached in Vancouver, B.C., to wonderfully save the woman who, forty years later and widowed, would become my wife, Mrs. Agnes Mary McCluskey. Is God good or what! These dates and times are closely approximate, my age and all that eh!

Over a century ago a series of shocking mutilation murders took place in a squalid, overcrowded district of Victorian London. Five women fell victim to a man driven by rage and violent fantasy. The newspapers of the day gave him a chilling nickname, a name that evokes images of gas-lit foggy streets and a top-hatted sinister figure carrying a Gladstone bag. From the outset, the murderer attained almost mythical status merely by virtue of his name and his uncanny ability to avoid detection. The legend of Jack the Ripper was born. Peter Hodgson’s detailed and entertaining overview of Ripper lore in fact, film and fiction analyses the fiend’s awesome legacy. He explores the institutions and the individuals: the Jewish community and their rituals with meat, the scandal-prone royal family, the Victorian police and their simplistic methods of investigation, the streetwalkers and their trade. This book compares the fiction with the reality of those ghastly events, and clearly shows how the real killer has been transformed into a creature of the mind–the ‘other’ Jack the Ripper. Examination of the victims’ mutilations reveals the true nature of ‘Jack’s’ grotesque fantasies. This aspect–coupled with his elementary anatomical knowledge–is used in conjunction with the FBI’s appraisal of the case to construct a unique psychological profile. From the long list of candidates the author reveals his prime suspect for the role of the world’s most infamous serial killer. Book reviews online: PublishedBestsellers website.
