Lady of the Lotus
William Barrett, the late well-known author of Lilies of the Field, reveals one of the great romances of world history in this classic tale.
Irrational Man
Widely recognized as the finest definition of existentialist philosophy ever written, this book introduced existentialism to America in 1958. Barrett speaks eloquently and directly to concerns of the 1990s: a period when the irrational and the absurd are no better integrated than before and when humankind is in even greater danger of destroying its existence without ever understanding the meaning of its existence. Irrational Man begins by discussing the roots of existentialism in the art and thinking of Augustine, Aquinas, Pascal, Baudelaire, Blake, Dostoevski, Tolstoy, Hemingway, Picasso, Joyce, and Beckett. The heart of the book explains the views of the foremost existentialists—Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Heidegger, and Sartre. The result is a marvelously lucid definition of existentialism and a brilliant interpretation of its impact.
On the Threshold of the Unseen
First published in 1917, this book attempts to prove that many spiritualist activities should be regarded as scientifically respectable.

Early Modern English Literature and the Poetics of Cartographic Anxiety
This fascinating study explores how Renaissance-era maps fascinated people with their beauty and precision yet they also unnerved readers and writers. The volume shows how late sixteenth- and seventeenth-century poets channelled the anxieties provoked by maps and mapping, creating a new way of thinking about how literature represents space.
