This path-breaking book explores different ways in which writing about poetry can deepen and extend our critical engagement by deploying creatively the manifold resources of poetic language and form. Through a series of verse-essays, reflective monologues, and inventive variations on topics in literary theory The Winnowing Fan makes a strong case for revising received ideas about the scope and limits of criticism. Norris's poems traverse the full range of European poetic history from Homer's Odyssey, through the work of French symbolists such as Mallarmé, to modern writers such as Yeats, Benjamin, Heaney, Larkin, and Barthes. There are also verse-essays and shorter pieces on philosophers from Hume and Leibniz to Heidegger, Althusser, Derrida, de Man, Rorty, Deleuze, Badiou, and Agamben. In each case Norris seeks to free criticism from conventional academic forms and return it to an active mutual engagement with the practice of literature itself.
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
In a world where the familiar has sinister undertones, two friends are torn apart just when they need one another most. Can they both survive? Marivic Stone lives in a small world, and that's fine with her. Home is with her beloved grandfather in a small town that just happens to be famous for a medical discovery that saved humankind — though not without significant repercussions. Marivic loves her best friend, Saren, and the two of them promise to stick together, through thick and thin, and especially through the uncertain winnowing procedure, a now inevitable — but dangerous — part of adolescence. But when tragedy separates the two friends, Marivic is thrust into a world of conspiracy, rebellion and revolution. For the first time in her life, Marivic is forced to think and act big. If she is going to avenge Saren and right a decade of wrongs, she will need to trust her own frightening new abilities, even when it meansturning her back on everything, and everyone, she's known and loved. A gripping exploration of growing up, love and loss, The Winnowingis a page-turning adventure that will have readers rooting for their new hero, Marivic Stone, as they unravel the horror and intrigue of a world at once familiar but with a chilling strangeness lurking beneath the everyday.
The history of 20th Century America is one of great courage, leadership and heroism. Those virtues describe Secretary George C. Marshall, whose service after World War II is easily as important as his leadership during it. Little known, however, was a crucial mistake, made by the young Harvard MBAs he sent to Europe after the war to implement the Marshall Plan. That mistake made no headlines at the time. In fact, though it was kept secret in the 1940s and beyond, its results only occurred thirty years later. It gave rise to a silent, but deadly conspiracy to take control of governments on both sides of the Atlantic, and to restore the pre-war regime of the great capitalists who ruled like emperors through the sheer power of wealth. A small group of very private men who had controlled entire economies before and during the War had added new members, including a single American who quickly became their Chairman. They were intent on restoring that control, by whatever means were available to them. Against them are no Presidents, no Prime Ministers, no armies. Only a single man, who leaves his career as a columnist for the Washington Post to research and document the lives of the great pre-war industrial leaders - not recognizing at first that they are the very men who are determined to protect their privacy until they resume their seats of power. With no power beyond his professional skills, he finds himself literally at war, and very much alone after losing his wife and daughter in a random car-jacking and murder. The Winnowing Fan is the story of that war, and of the sacrifices Craig Hadden must make to prevent the destruction of his nation and perhaps a dozen others.

As a lifelong prayer pilgrim, Teena Ferrara has written The Winnowing from the depths of her soul out of her passionate love for Jesus. These reflections flow from her rich walk with the Lord and the intimacy of being present with Him every day. This book will take readers to a place few would willingly dare to go, venturing through a sudden and unexpected dark-night-of-the-soul experience, loss, and trauma. What unfolds is a raw search for God in the midst of a muddle of emotional, physical, and spiritual pain.
