Trapped In Her Dreams
Emily’s time-travel dreams are far from over. Dream-walking with Victorian era Lucy was quite the ride, but now Andrew has some grand master plan he couldn’t be more cryptic about. While juggling school, her friends, and her former boyfriend – who is still pretty great – Emily tries to convince everyone that her dreams have stopped. Even though they haven’t. But when Emily begins dream-walking Isabella, a nineteenth century girl crossing the Atlantic, she gets so caught up in Isabella’s world and her other dreams, reality begins slipping away. Can she bring herself back to her own waking world? Can she save herself and those she dream walks? Or will she be trapped in her dreams – living the memories of the past – forever?
Purpose In Her Dreams
Emily Chandler dreams the memories of the past, but now the past is coming to her. Andrew is suddenly decades ahead, looking similar to the way he did in Lucy’s time. He says he’s jumping time by dream walking forward to her. To Emily’s time. But even though that’s incredibly romantic, it’s impossible. Meanwhile, Emily’s recent coma has her asking questions about what really happened when she couldn’t wake up, but she’s still riddled with guilt over getting Lucy sent to a sanitarium. Can she save Lucy even though she doesn’t want to be saved? Will Andrew really jump forward to be with Emily? Or will everything fall apart when Emily asks too many questions, risking herself and the people she loves? ◆ The In Her Dreams trilogy is perfect for those who love unique time travel romancestories. By USA Today Bestselling Author, Joanna Reeder, the twists and turns will keep you turning pages late into the night. ◆ As Joanna Reeder’s debut novel, In Her Dreams was a Whitney Award Finalist in the YA Speculative category for 2018.
South Yorkshire Mining Disasters
In the period that we now call the Industrial Revolution mining disasters wrecked the lives of thousands of South Yorkshire families and devastated entire communities. The Husker pit flooding of 1838 in which 26 young girls and boys were killed shocked Victorian society and and was a significant factor in the 1842 Report on Employment of Women and Children in Mines; but earlier, long forgotten disasters are also explored. The Barnsley area was particularly hard-hit during the middle decades of the century with major mining accidents, usually great explosions of firedamp occurring, for example, at Lundhill Colliery (189 men and boys killed); Oaks (361 fatalities, Britains worst pit disaster) and Swaithe Main (143 dead). Scenes of grief, mourning and remarkable heroism provided spectacular copy for Victorian newspapers and magazines such as The Illustrated London News, focusing on the very uncertain and dangerous life of the miner. Despite the importance and widespread occurrence of South Yorkshire mining disasters, which also included dreadful winding accidents and gas emissions, their story has never been told in a single volume.

Ideas Under Fire
Since Aristotle's famous declaration that the speculative sciences originated with the emergence of a leisure class, it has been accepted as a truism that intellectual activity requires political stability and leisure in order to flourish. Paradoxically, however, some of the most powerful and influential contributions to Western intellectual culture have been produced in conditions that were adverse-indeed hostile-to intellectual activity. Examples include Socrates' stirring defense of the examined life before a hostile Athenian jury, Boethius writing The Consolation of Philosophy under the specter of impending torture and execution, Galileo devising key notions for modern mechanics while un...
The Oxford Handbook of Roman Egypt
This handbook, arranged in seven thematic sections, is unique in drawing together many different strands of research on Roman Egypt, in order to suggest both the state of knowledge in the field and the possibilities for collaborative, synthetic, and interpretive research.
The Land of the Body
This book presents the first extended study of the representation of Egypt in the writings of Philo of Alexandria. Philo is a crucial witness, not only to the experiences of the Jews of Alexandria, but to the world of early Roman Egypt in general. As historians of Roman Alexandria and Egypt are well aware, we have access to very few voices from inside the country in this era; Philo is the best we have. As a commentator on Jewish Scripture, Philo is also one of the most valuable sources for the interpretation of Egypt in the Pentateuch. He not only writes very extensively on this subject, but he does so in ways that are remarkable for their originality when compared with the surviving literature of ancient Judaism. In this book, Sarah Pearce tries to understand Philo in relation to the wider context in which he lived and worked. Key areas for investigation include: defining the 'Egyptian' in Philo's world; Philo's treatment of the Egypt of the Pentateuch as a symbol of 'the land of the body'; Philo's emphasis on Egyptian inhospitableness; and his treatment of Egyptian religion, focusing on Nile veneration and animal worship.
