Soft cover. Condizione: New. 1st Edition. New; pristine. See scans and description. Washington, DC: National Geographic Society, 2015. National Geographic Strange But True - Secrets of the Supernatural Revealed. Special Publication, as noted. Quarto, illustrated perfect-bound wraps, 112 pp. New; pristine and flawless, and in protective archival storage since acquisition. National Geographic - with its usual top-quality text and graphics - takes a look at some of the better known directions of the paranormal - although, truth be told, many of those selected here have been at least tentatively explained or have strong speculative explanations. To their credit, though - and despite the intentionally titillating subheader, which they probably should have tossed - NGS has herein mostly avoided knee-jerkism - both junk-debunking and crash believing. They have avoided the relatively scarce truly-inexplicable phenomena, those for which there is not yet any ready explanation or textured objective speculation - on any side. The ones to which any objective observer has to say, objectively, 'I don't know - yet'. Perhaps those tougher ones will be the stuff of the next special publication on the subject for NGS. For now, this is indeed a fun, absorbing, and graphically engaging introduction to both curiously aberrant folklore and the not-yet-analyzable uncharted events of physical reality. Very nice browse-and-read, especially for the topic newcomer. LG9. …

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - English sheds new light on death and dying in twentieth- and twenty-first century Irish literature as she examines the ways that Irish wake and funeral rituals shape novelistic discourse. She argues that the treatment of death in Irish novels offers a way of making sense of mortality and provides insight into Ireland's cultural and historical experience of death. Combining key concepts from narrative theory--such as readers' competing desires for a story and for closure--with Irish cultural analyses and literary criticism, English performs astute close readings of death in select novels by Joyce, Beckett, Kate O'Brien, John McGahern, and Anne Enright. With each chapter, she demonstrates how novelistic narrative serves as a way of mediating between the physical facts of death and its lasting impact on the living. English suggests that while Catholic conceptions of death have always been challenged by alternative secular value systems, these systems have also struggled to find meaningful alternatives to the consolation offered by religious conceptions of the afterlife.…
