However, the experiences of the many disabled people within Britain’s most dangerous industry have gone largely unrecognised by historians. Through subversive readings, they argued, women could imagine a more liberated future.Ĭoalmining was a notoriously dangerous industry and many of its workers experienced injury and disease. Pro-sex feminist such as Ellen Willis and Gayle Rubin countered Gramscian interpretations, contending that women and men could separate fantasy from reality in their private use of smut. Feminists including Catharine MacKinnon and Andrea Dworkin excoriated the pornography industry, focusing on its corporate exploitation of women and outlining the society-wide consequences of men’s consumption of pornography. While most agreed that women formed a separate class, they differed on how that class was formed, whether sexual violence played a role in constituting it, and if pornography contributed to the oppression of women as a group. In their analyses, they considered three core Marxist concepts: class, commodity, and consumption. Feminists on both sides of the 1980s sex wars used Marxist theory to analyze sexual violence, its relationship to pornography, and whether pornography liberated or oppressed women. In her first historical novel, rich with the details of an era that shaped both a nation and an island thirty miles out to sea, Elin Hilderbrand once again earns her title as queen of the summer novel. As the summer heats up, Ted Kennedy sinks a car in Chappaquiddick, man flies to the moon, and Jessie and her family experience their own dramatic upheavals along with the rest of the country. Thirteen-year-old Jessie suddenly feels like an only child, marooned in the house with her out-of-touch grandmother and her worried mother, each of them hiding a troubling secret. Only-son Tiger is an infantry soldier, recently deployed to Vietnam. Middle sister Kirby, caught up in the thrilling vortex of civil rights protests and determined to be independent, takes a summer job on Martha's Vineyard.

When you’re translating the Odyssey, it’s wonderfully comic. When you’re translating the Iliad, by God it’s a tragic activity. Robert Fagles, The Art of Translation No. What had kept it fresh for so many centuries was the sensation you had, when reading it, that this was alive. I had to reimagine it, so that it would be alive from start to finish.

The goal of the Titans is to possess the entire human race - effectively, to spread themselves and their control to the uncontrolled portion of humanity. They reproduce extremely rapidly, and soon posses an extremely large percentage of the population - large enough that the protagonist, Sam, calls it a "saturation" point, and the Titans actually drop the masquerade. The Titans control their hosts (human and otherwise) through physical contact, most often at the spine just below the neck.
