Arete and the Odyssey's Poetics of Interrogation
Justin Arft explores how the Phaeacian queen, Arete, is at the heart of an epic-scale 'poetics of interrogation' used throughout the Odyssey to negotiate Odysseus' kleos, or epic renown.

Late Bloomer
Carol Tyler has been a professional (and highly acclaimed) cartoonist for over 20 years, appearing in such venues as Weirdo, Wimmen's Comix, and Drawn & Quarterly magazine.

Oral Tradition and the Internet
The major purpose of this book is to illustrate and explain the fundamental similarities and correspondences between humankind's oldest and newest thought-technologies: oral tradition and the Internet. Despite superficial differences, both technologies are radically alike in depending not on static products but rather on continuous processes, not on "What?" but on "How do I get there?" In contrast to the fixed spatial organization of the page and book, the technologies of oral tradition and the Internet mime the way we think by processing along pathways within a network. In both media it's pathways--not things--that matter. To illustrate these ideas, this volume is designed as a "morphing bo...
