Poisoned Waters

NEW! The long-awaited conclusion to the Sacred Breath Series! No one is prepared to deal with the repercussions of Visola's rampage across America; not even Visola herself. The result is global warfare of land versus sea on a scale that no one has ever seen before. The people of the oceans must struggle, for the first time, to keep their heads above water. In a secret and primitive part of the Atlantic, a powerful priestess believes that innocent Princess Varia possesses the key to the world's salvation. Glais, the princess's young love, lies in a mysterious coma, and Mother Melusina promises that she will wake him if only Varia does all she asks. Appalled at the idea of betraying her mother, Varia refuses, but she is not sure how much longer she can stand the brutal imprisonment and torture. Mother Melusina is convinced that if Varia can survive her rigorous training, the princess will become the type of leader that can bring and end to war and correct Queen Aazuria's mistakes. Varia is hesitant, skeptical, and afraid. Unfortunately, she has no choice. The life of the boy she loves depends on it.

There is a strong tradition of literary analyses of the musical artwork. Simply put, all musicology - any writing about music - is an attempt at making analogies between what happens within the world of sound and language itself. This study considers this analogy from the opposite perspective: authors attempting to structure words using musical forms and techniques. It's a viewpoint much more rarely explored, and none of the extant studies of novelists' musical techniques have been done by musicians. Can a novel follow the form of a symphony and still succeed as a novel? Can musical counterpoint be mimicked by words on a page? Alan Shockley begins looking for answers by examining music's app...

Philosophical Allusions in James Joyce's Finnegans Wake

Philosophical Allusions in James Joyce's Finnegans Wake is the first study to offer complete and comprehensive explanations of the most significant philosophical references in James Joyce's avant-garde masterpiece. Philosophy is important in all of Joyce's works, but it is his final novel which most fully engages with that field. Robert Baines shows the broad range of philosophers Joyce wove into his last work, from Aristotle to Confucius, Bergson to Kant. For each major philosophical allusion in Finnegans Wake, this book explains the original idea and reveals how Joyce first encountered it. Drawing upon extensive research into Joyce's notebooks and drafts, Baines then shows how Joyce develo...
