Fayre lovely ladie, whose angelique eyes Are vestall candles of sweet beauties treasure, Whose speech is able to inchaunt the wise, Converting joy to paine, and paine to pleasure; Accept this simple toy of my soules dutie, Which I present unto thy matchles beautie. And albeit the gift be all too meane, Too meane an offring for thine ivorie shrine; Yet must thy beautie my just blame susteane, Since it is mortall, but thyselfe divine. Then, noble ladie, take in gentle worth This new-borne babe, which here my muse brings forth. Your Honours most affectionate and perpetually devoted Shepheard: Daphnis. AFFECTIONATE SHEPHEARD. THE TEARES OF AN AFFECTIONATE SHEPHEARD SICKK FOR LOVE, OR THE COMPLAINT OF DAPHNIS FOB THE LOVE OF CANIMEDE. Scarce had the morning starre hid from the light Heavens crimson canopie with stars bespangled, But I began to rue th' unhappy sight Of that faire boy that had my hart intangledj Cursing the time, the place, the sense, the sin; I came, I saw, I viewd, I slipped in. If it be sinne to love a sweet-fac'd boy, Whose amber locks trust up in golden tramels Dangle adowne his lovely cheekes with joy, When pearle and flowers his faire haire enamels; If it be sinne to love a lovely lad, Oh then sinne I, for whom my soule is sad. His ivory-white and alablaster skin Is staind throughout with rare vermillion red, Whose twinckling star...

ELIZABETHAN CRITICAL ESSAYS EDITED WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY G. GREGORY SMITH VOLUME I - PREFACE THE purpose of these volumes is to collect the writings of the Elizabethan age which are concerned with Literary Criticism. The term is used in its most comprehensive sense, and permits the inclusion not merely of academic treatises on the nature of poetry or on more special problems of form, but of tracts and prefaces which express contemporary taste. Some of the texts, such as Harveys and Nashs, are reproduced less for their matter than for their manner of approach. The work is therefore an attempt to recover, primarily in the words of the Elizabethans themselves, what then passed for critical opinion in literary circles. I hope the collection will commend itself as being fairly complete the ingenious repeti tion of argument and illustration which runs through out would show at least that we are in possession of the abiding topics. Several of the texts have been reprinted, either individually or as parts of works, during the late century, and notably by Haslewood, Grosart, and Mr. Arber. In these, it may be said, the interest has been exclusively bibliographical and historical a restriction perhaps inevitable in the plan of separate reprints. The advance in the study of Criticism has proved, however, that there are other, and perhaps more important, interests in this material, and that these are best served by treating it as a whole. In no other way can we find the historical perspective of what appears to be a mingle-mangle of ill-con vi Preface sidered, off-hand sayings, or better appreciate the fact that in these we have the true beginnings of English Criticism as a separate literary kind or adequately understand how much of the classical mood expressed in Dryden and his successors is the natural and native outcome of these early speculations. I have endeavoured, in the Introduction, to discuss these general problems, and to show that the texts here reprinted supply evidence for certain conclusions. It has been found convenient to use the epithet 1 Elizabethan in the strictest chronological sense, and to exclude the earlier treatises of Coxe, Wilson, and Sherry, and, with them, Fulwoods book of 1568, which are either entirely rhetorical or merely anthological. By ending with Elizabeth's death-year, we are denied the critical work of Ben Jonson, other than the earlier pieces which appear in the Appendix to Vol. ii, and all the work of Bacon for though the first edition of the Essays appeared in 1597, the important reissues fall well within Jamess reign. Moreover considerations of space apart Jonson J s and Bacons milieu is Jacobean, and their work introduces us to a later stage in the history of criticism. In that work, with Boltons Hypercritica, Stirlings Anacrisis, Draytons Epistle to Reynolds, and others, there is ample material for another volume. Yet we need not concern ourselves overmuch with the chronological division. The defence of the - limits here chosen must be the mutual dependence of the essays between Aschams chapter on Imitation and Daniels Defence. It so happens that the date of the latter falls in or about 1603. Preface vii All the writings in the body of the book are in prose. The contributions in verse, such as Daniels Musophtlus, Halls Satires, or Peeks judgements on contemporaries, are either plainly supplementary or too occasional for the present purpose. These have been incorporated by way of illustration in the Notes...

<p>Christians should not have an inferiority complex regarding the academic or intellectual integrity of their faith and should understand that Christian faith is also a rational faith. Faith and Reason has two major purposes. First, it is designed to introduce readers to the more important questions that link philosophy and religion. It explores philosophical questions. It is also written for pastors, Christian workers, and educated laypeople who want to know how to defend the Christian faith. The book includes discussion questions.</p>

Ob die nachgemachte Rolex, das erfundene Interview, der Standpunkt von der Stange oder die zum Auftritt passende Identitt -- Kopie und Original werden immer schwerer unterscheidbar. Das So-tun-als-ob ist zum bestimmenden Strickmuster unserer Gesellschaft geworden. Und Gewissheiten sind rar -- fr den Fake genau der Nhrboden, auf dem er sich groflchig ausbreiten kann. Was ihn, richtig genutzt, zu einer uerst subversiven Protestform macht, mit der man die Schwchen des Systems punktgenau aufdecken kann. Sagt Judith Mair. Sie ist Expertin fr Populrkultur. Die 33-Jhrige studierte Design in Kln, grndete eine Agentur und unterrichtete als Gastdozentin an der Zeppelinuniversitt Friedrichshafen, bis sie Anfang 2004 nach Berlin kam. Heute arbeitet sie dort Diplom-Designerin. Ihre Bestandsaufnahme ist auf den ersten Blick negativ: In unserer Gesellschaft knnen wir nicht mehr zwischen Fiktion und Wirklichkeit, zwischen Kopie und Original unterscheiden, weshalb es besser ist, so zu tun, als ob. Politiker inszenieren sich und tun so, als ob. Ebenso Unternehmenslenker und Medienmacher. Der Ausweg fr Mair: Fake for Real. Es ist das Dagegen-Sein im Dafr-Mntelchen. Oder anders gesagt: Wo das Konforme sich rebellisch gibt und die Mchtigen sich um den Posten des Kritikers rangeln, wie in unserer Gesellschaft, muss das Nichtkonforme und Kritische lieb, nett und harmlos daherkommen. Beim Fake wird die Kritik, getarnt als das Harmlose in das System eingeschleust und vermarktet. Contra tut so, als sei es Pro. Kritische Inhalte werden als Fake vorstzlich getarnt und als stille Agenten in den Kreislauf eingeschleust, um dann dort ihre wahre Wirkung zu entfalten. Es handelt sich um eine Art semiotischen Straenkampf, Demontage statt Demonstration. So wie der Kuckuck seine Eier in fremden Nestern verteilt, lsst sich der Fake in viele kleine, unterschiedliche Systemlcken der Politik, der Wirtschaft, der Medien und der Marken legen. --Anja Dilk

Have you ever wished you could peer into someone’s mind to find out what he or she is really thinking? Now you can . . . really. This book is not a collection of recycled ideas about body language. It does not suggest that a woman’s hairstyle will give us unprecedented access into her soul, neither does it draw wildly ambiguous generalities about people based on our intuition or gut instinct, nor does it reach conclusions based on how she folds her hands or he ties his shoelaces. This book contains specific, proven psychological techniques that can be applied instantly to any person in just about any situation. Dr. Lieberman has demonstrated the ease and accuracy of these techniques on hundreds of television and radio programs. In a special report for FOX News, host Jeff Rosin declared, “It’s simply amazing! I was with him and he was never wrong . . . not even once. I even learned how to do it and that’s saying something.” In fact, Dr. Lieberman has gone “head-to-head” on live television, with skilled polygraph examiners and scored just as well—every time. You Can Read Anyone shows step-by-step exactly how to tell what someone is thinking and feeling in real-life situations. For example, you will see precisely how to determine whether another poker player will stay in or fold, whether a salesperson is trustworthy, or whether or not a first date is going your way or the other way. And when the stakes are high—negotiations, interrogations, questions of abuse, theft, or fraud-- knowing who is out for you, and who is out to get you (or a loved one) can save you time, money, energy, and heartache.

In March 2001, the National Institutes of Health issued the following warning: "The number of Web sites offering health-related resources grows every day. Many sites provide valuable information, while others may have information that is unreliable or misleading." Furthermore, because of the rapid increase in Internet-based information, many hours can be wasted searching, selecting, and printing. Since only the smallest fraction of information dealing with trisomy 18 is indexed in search engines, such as www.google.com or others, a non-systematic approach to Internet research can be not only time consuming, but also incomplete. This book was created for medical professionals, students, and members of the general public who want to conduct medical research using the most advanced tools available and spending the least amount of time doing so.

Stolen Innocence: My Story of Growing Up in a Polygamous Sect, Becoming a Teenage Bride, and Breaking Free of Warren Jeffs is an autobiography by American author Elissa Wall detailing her childhood in the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (FLDS) and subsequent later life outside of the church.

One woman's harrowing story of imprisonment and survival in the face of the Chinese government's persecution of Falun Gong. On 23 May 2000, the Chinese government sentenced Jennifer Zeng to reeducation through forced labour. Her fellow inmates were drug addicts, prostitutes and traffickers in pornography. Jennifer's only crime was her belief in the three tenets of Falun Gong Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance. Struggling with a life-threatening illness and a need to understand her place in the world, Jennifer had immersed herself in many Western and Eastern philosophies before finally finding the answers she was seeking in Falun Gong. A few short years later her newfound faith saw her blacklisted and imprisoned in a purpose-built labour camp. Jennifer was forced to squat for hours in the blistering sun, endure hours of physical and verbal abuse, and knit garments until her hands bled to feed the booming Chinese economy. During this time Jennifer saw many fellow Falun Gong practitioners tortured. Some died, many more remain in the camps today. This is the powerful and moving story of how a bright, successful young scientist and happily married mother survived detention and torture, only to be forced to flee her family and homeland to seek asylum in Australia. A raw and compelling memoir, one which provides a fascinating glimpse into everyday life in China, Witnessing History also exposes a bureaucracy still struggling to disentangle itself from the constraints of Mao's Cultural Revolution.

Tom Wolfe's The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test ushered in an era of New Journalism. "An American classic" (Newsweek) that defined a generation. "An astonishing book" (The New York Times Book Review) and an unflinching portrait of Ken Kesey, his Merry Pranksters, LSD, and the 1960s.Tom Wolfe's much-discussed kaleidoscopic non-fiction novel chronicles the tale of novelist Ken Kesey and his band of Merry Pranksters. In the 1960s, Kesey led a group of psychedelic sympathizers around the country in a painted bus, presiding over LSD-induced "acid tests" all along the way. Long considered one of the greatest books about the history of the hippies, Wolfe's ability to research like a reporter and simultaneously evoke the hallucinogenic indulgence of the era ensures that this book, written in 1967, will live long in the counter-culture canon of American literature.
