Elizabeth Jennings was one of the most popular, prolific, and widely anthologized lyric poets in the second half of the twentieth century. This first biography, based on extensive archival research and interviews with Jennings's contemporaries, integrates her life and work and explores the 'inward war' the poet experienced as a result of her gender, religion, and mental fragility. Originally associated with the Movement, Jennings was sui generis, believing poetry was 'communication' and 'communion.' She wrote of nature, friendship, childhood, religion, love, and art, endearing her to a wide audience. Yet lifelong depression, unbearable loneliness, unrelenting fears, poverty, and physical illness plagued her. These were exacerbated by her gender in a male-dominated literary world and an inherited Catholic worldview which initially inculcated guilt and shame. However, a tenacious drive to be a poet made her, 'the most unconditionally loved writer of her generation.' Although her claim was that the poem is not the poet, her life is tracked in her voluminous published and unpublished poetry and prose. The themes of mental illness, the importance of place, the problems associated with being an unmarried woman artist, her relationship with literary mentors and younger poets, her non-feminist feminism, and her marginality and sympathy for the outcast are all explored. It was poetry which saved her; it helped her push back darkness and discover order in the midst of chaos. Poetry was her raison d'etre. It was her life.
Words From The Author It is my heart's desire to see men performing their role as a role model for future young men to emulate. In this shaky economy that we live in, we need men of quality. Throughout this book, I am targeting men that need to step up and give their all in everything God has designed them to be. Having raised three sons, I feel compelled to write about the growing epidemic that is facing the men of the population. If men are not pursuing, there will always be a page in their life that will render incompleteness until he summons God for direction. I am inclined to believe that the family is out of sync without him and a better unit with him. Whether you are men in the corporate world, Christian arena, work place, or even incarcerated, this book is prepared just for you and will provide the right tools you need, to possess the Total Package. This book displays the qualities and characteristics that each man should attain to fulfill their assignment and purpose in life. Dr. Jerlette Mickie Author

Do you have a vision for your life? All of us need a compelling vision to live for. Scripture says, “Where there is no vision, the people perish.” Today, so many of us are living on autopilot instead of engaging the battle of living up to our God-given potential. We lack a vision for life. Too often, we settle for less than what is best for us, our families, and our careers. We struggle with pinpointing our purpose in life. A Minute of Vision for Men is an investment in a different sort of life—one with vision, purpose, and integrity. This book will help you connect with your purpose. It’s written so that you can start your day on the right foot, focused on what matters the most. Start each day with a potent, daily dose of vision for your life.

This book explores the much debated relation of language and bodily experience (i.e. the 'flesh'), considering in particular how poetry functions as revelatory discourse and thus relates to the formal horizon of theological inquiry. The central thematic focus is around a 'phenomenology of the flesh' as that which connects us with the world, being the site of perception and feeling, joy and suffering, and of life itself in all its vulnerability. The voices represented in this collection reflect interdisciplinary methods of interpretation and broadly ecumenical sensibilities, focusing attention on such matters as the revelatory nature of language in general and poetic language in particular, the function of poetry in society, the question of Incarnation and its relation to language and the poetic arts, the kenosis of the Word, and human embodiment in relation to the word 'enfleshed' in poetry.
This book is based on legends and folk stories of the German folk hero Thyl Owlmirror. The story reflects the events during the Dutch Revolt against the Spanish empire. This 16th century epic is compared to the stories of Don Quixote and Robin Hood by popularity. The main character of the story Thyl Ulenspiegel is a happy-to-go prankster, born with uncanny wit and spirit of observation. From the very childhood he exposes the ugly sides of people with humor, sarcasm, and mischief. All the childhood and early years Thyl amuses his closest with witty prank and jokes. Yet, one day, the tragedy enters his home. His father got accused for heresy and burned in fire. This sad event transforms Thyl. Now, he grows up and becomes a national leader in the revolt against the Spanish dictatorship.
