Ovid before Exile
The epic Metamorphoses, Ovid’s most renowned work, has regained its stature among the masterpieces of great poets such as Vergil, Horace, and Tibullus. Yet its irreverent tone and bold defiance of generic boundaries set the Metamorphoses apart from its contemporaries. Ovid before Exile provides a compelling new reading of the epic, examining the text in light of circumstances surrounding the final years of Augustus’ reign, a time when a culture of poets and patrons was in sharp decline, discouraging and even endangering artistic freedom of expression. Patricia J. Johnson demonstrates how the production of art—specifically poetry—changed dramatically during the reign of Augustus. By Ovid’s final decade in Rome, the atmosphere for artistic work had transformed, leading to a drop in poetic production of quality. Johnson shows how Ovid, in the episodes of artistic creation that anchor his Metamorphoses, responded to his audience and commented on artistic circumstances in Rome.
Free to Be Me
As a college psychology professor, Patricia Johnson-Laster spent hours upon hours listening to and counseling young adults with unsettled questions from their childhood. She began to see that dysfunction within families is a hidden epidemic, hindering too many young people from developing freely into the person God intends for them to be. Divorce, addiction, rejection by one or both parents, abandonment, and immature parenting often leave an imprint. Dr. Johnson-Laster believes that, left unexamined, a shallow sense of identity is often at the root of ongoing unhappiness and superficiality in the lives of many Christians. Free to Be Me is her award-winning workbook. Here, she provides honest...
Prophetic Poetry
I went to a Salvation Army dinner with some of the staff of our church and came out knowing something had happened to me spiritually! The next morning, in my devotions, singing In My Life Lord Be Glorified, I heard, I am glorified. It was the beginning of my poetry. In the first poem He gave me, I realized He had birthed in my heart a ministry of missions. My mission field is wherever the Lord places me. I love sharing Jesus with everyone, but my special love is young people. Ive been blessed to spend much time with the Lord, sitting at His feet, in worship and praise, which what much of this poetry is about. Many are about sharing Jesus with the lost and the importance of salvation. They sh...

The Candle and the Guillotine
As in a number of France’s major cities, civil war erupted in Lyon in the summer of 1793, ultimately leading to a siege of the city and a wave of mass executions. Using Lyon as a lens for understanding the politics of revolutionary France, this book reveals the widespread enthusiasm for judicial change in Lyon at the time of the Revolution, as well as the conflicts that ensued between elected magistrates in the face of radical democratization. Julie Patricia Johnson’s investigation of these developments during the bloodiest years of the Revolution offers powerful insights into the passions and the struggles of ordinary people during an extraordinary time.
Hidden Hands
Tracing the Victorian crisis over the representation of working-class women to the 1842 Parliamentary bluebook on mines, with its controversial images of women at work, Hidden Hands argues that the female industrial worker became even more dangerous to represent than the prostitute or the male radical because she exposed crucial contradictions between the class and gender ideologies of the period and its economic realities. Drawing on the recent work of feminist historians, Patricia Johnson lays the groundwork for a reinterpretation of Victorian social-problem fiction that highlights its treatment of issues that particularly affected working-class women: sexual harassment; the interconnectio...
