Any woman who has ever known a big teddy bear of a man with a zany sense of humor will fall in love with Norman. Readers may be angry at Bobbie Bloom when she rejects him and marries his handsome, urbane friend Philip. They may even say, "Serves her right!" when Philip turns out to be a womanizer, but they will empathize when he and his girlflriend are murdered by her husband, and Bobbie is compelled by a deathbed promise to adopt their premature infant. Bobbie has just begun to overcome her reluctance to care for the baby when the nanny abducts the little girl and disappears. Norman re-enters her life as a friend, providing emotional support as the FBI searches for the missing child. When the child is recovered at last, Norman and Bobbie are overjoyed, but now they must face the fears and regrets associated with their long-lost love.

In a seemingly offhand, often overlooked comment, Karl Marx deemed ‘human corporeal organisation’ the ‘first fact of human history’. Following Marx’s corporeal turn and pursuing the radical implications of his corporeal insight, this book undertakes a reconstruction of the corporeal foundations of historical materialism. Part I exposes the corporeal roots of Marx’s materialist conception of history and historical-materialist Wissenschaft. Part II attempts a historical-materialist mapping of human corporeal organisation. Suggesting how to approach human histories up from their corporeal foundations, Part III elaborates historical-materialism as ‘corporeal semiotics’. Part IV, a case study of Marx’s critique of capitalist socio-economic and cultural forms, reveals the corporeal foundations of that critique and the corporeal depth of his vision of human freedom and dignity.
More than fifty specialists have contributed to the new edition of volume 5 of the Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature. The design of the original work has established itself so firmly as a workable solution to the immense problems of analysis, articulation and coordination that it has been retained in all its essentials for the new edition. The task of the new contributors has been to revise and integrate the lists of 1940 and 1957, to add materials of the following decade, to correct and refine the bibliographical details already available, and to re-shape the whole according to a new series of conventions devised to give greater clarity and consistency to the entries.
