Unquiet Country

We rarely hear the past voices of the rural poor - the laborers dependent on casual employment, the workhouse inmates, the dispossessed. This book lets them tell their own story. It is, frequently, a story of bitterness and resentment, and one that bursts occasionally into outright rebellion. To many who occupied the early-Victorian countryside, injustice seemed part of the landscape. Robert Lee draws on a remarkable set of historical sources from Norfolk which show how the experience of poverty could lead people into social transgression and political resistance. Using dramatizations of contemporary accounts he presents a series of disturbing true stories, and goes on to assess what each one can tell us about the reality of nineteenth-century rural society. Insurrection, riot, execution, witchcraft, seduction - Unquiet Country visits the dark side of the Age of Improvement.

Visual Representations of Native Americans

This volume brings together interdisciplinary research that attends to local specificity as well as the global - transnational - circulation of a visual image repertoire of Native Americans. Located at the intersection between Visual Culture Studies and American Studies, the contributions gathered here are investigating the transnational dimensions of the creation, production, circulation, consumption, projection, reception, and perception of visual representations of Native Americans from colonial times to the 21st century. "The Indian" as image, stereotype, icon, and metaphor was - and often still is - fabricated in a transnational sphere of influence and needs to be read within the respective national, cultural, historical, and political contexts in which it was/is produced. Both, the cultural functions of such visual appropriations for those who construct them as well as the creative responses to these fabrications by Native American visual artists are scrutinized in this collection.

The Place Called Heaven

You are about to read Dr. Robert G. Lee's greatest sermon - in my opinion. I know this is a broad statement for he is noted for his great sermons. Many of us believe him to be the greatest orator of our day, and one of the greatest sermonizers of all time. His messages have the depth of a Spurgeon, the eloquence of a Demosthenes, the wisdom of a Solomon, and the inspiration of a Longfellow. Dr. Lee has inspired me with his sermons many times. Along with thousands of others who have heard him at great conventions, his masterful messages have lifted me into the heavenlies. But never has anything he has written or spoken so stirred me as this message on "The Place Called Heaven." I shall never,...
