Your Heart Is So Big
This book is about an abandoned dog that teaches us many lessons. He is loving, fun, clever, loves to dance, and is determined to help the man who saved his life. Jack rescued the dog but later he found himself in a similar situation, homeless and hungry. A diverse group of individuals pulled together to find the abandoned dog a home, and later on to find Jack a home. This adorable and fun loving dog brings joy to his new family and friends, but never forgetting the man who rescued him. He shows us how to be resilient, bond as a family and to help others. His loyalty is admirable, he brings joy and happiness to everyone. The characters are beautifully illustrated, the colors are vibrant and eye catching, and the dog is memorable. A story on kindness, giving back and love for animals and others.
Writing on Skin in the Age of Chaucer
Owing to its relatedness to parchment as the primary writing matter of the Middle Ages, human skin was not only a topic to write about in medieval texts, it was also conceived of as an inscribable surface, both in the material and in the figurative sense. This volume explores the textuality of human skin as discussed by Geoffrey Chaucer and other writers (medical, religious, philosophical, and literary) of the fourteenth and fifteenth century. It presents four main aspects of the complex relations between text, parchment, and human skin as they have been discussed in recent scholarship. These four aspects are, first, the (mostly figurative) resonances between parchment-making and transformations of human skin, second, parchment as a space of contact between animal and human spheres, third, human skin and parchment as sites where (gender) identities are negotiated, and fourth, the place of medieval skin studies within cultural studies and its relationship to the major concerns of cultural studies: the difficult demarcation of skin from body, the instability of any inscription, and the skin’s precarious state as an entity of its own.
