Through close readings of major poems, this book examines why the second-generation Romantic poets - Byron, Shelley, and Keats - stage so much of their poetry in Eastern or Orientalized settings. It argues that they do so not only to interrogate their own imaginations, but also as a way of criticizing Europe's growing imperialism. For them the Orient is a projection of Europe's own fears and desires. It is therefore a charged setting in which to explore and contest the limits of the age's aesthetics, politics and culture. Being nearly always self-conscious and ironic, the poets' treatment of the Orient becomes itself a twinned criticism of 'Romantic' egotism and the Orientalism practiced by earlier generations. The book goes further to claim that poems like Shelley's Revolt of Islam, Byron's 'Eastern' Tales, or even Keats's Lamia anticipate key issues at stake in postcolonial studies more generally.

Guitars inspire cult-like devotion: an aficionado can tell you precisely when and where their favorite instrument was made, the wood it is made from, and that wood's unique effect on the instrument's sound. In The Guitar, Chris Gibson and Andrew Warren follow that fascination around the globe as they trace guitars all the way back to the tree. The authors take us to guitar factories, port cities, log booms, remote sawmills, Indigenous lands, and distant rainforests, on a quest for behind-the-scenes stories and insights into how guitars are made, where the much-cherished guitar timbers ultimately come from, and the people and skills that craft those timbers along the way. Gibson and Warren interview hundreds of people to give us a first-hand account of the ins and outs of production methods, timber milling, and forest custodianship in diverse corners of the world, including the Pacific Northwest, Madagascar, Spain, Brazil, Germany, Japan, China, Hawaii, and Australia. They unlock surprising insights into longer arcs of world history: on the human exploitation of nature, colonialism, industrial capitalism, cultural tensions, and seismic upheavals. But the authors also strike a hopeful note, offering a parable of wider resonance-of the incredible but underappreciated skill and care that goes into growing forests and felling trees, milling timber, and making enchanting musical instruments, set against the human tendency to reform our use (and abuse) of natural resources only when it may be too late. The Guitar promises to resonate with anyone who has ever fallen in love with a guitar.

In the forenoon of creation, a company of boys set out on a journey to become men. The yearlong rite of passage will challenge all they know and everything they believe possible. Egridin really didn't have a choice. All boys his age were sent away to become men. This year, twelve in all would make the journey, twelve very naive boys struggling with their own inadequacies, insecurities, and tortured pasts. Like the rest, Egridin knew his passage into manhood would be hard, but he never dreamed it would be this difficult. It took months before he felt comfortable with the day-to-day struggles, and even then it wasn't easy. When he and his companions unwittingly become entangled in a scheme certain to change the course of human destiny, everything changes. Their only hope is survival, and on a journey already wrought with failure, that is no easy task. Drawn into an adventure where life and death hang in delicate balance, the boys face unimaginable challenges: mysterious ghost winds, powerful Watchers, dark caverns, and a hideous new race of creatures called the nephilim. Strangely, it is in the midst of such impossible odds that Egridin discovers the true meaning of manhood. If all myth is rooted in truth, then the world of fantasy must find its origin in reality. Called Out introduces us to that world, a time before legends formed fables and gave birth to whimsical story-telling. Tantalizing the imagination, this thought-provoking, epic adventure takes the reader on an unforgettable journey of discovery, and unravels ancient mysteries long ago hidden. Today, boys are desperate to become men, but are confused about how to get there. Called Out is my response to that confusion. Society has redefined manhood and people are frustrated with the results. At the same time, boys are crying out for help, but have no one to mentor them. Called Out will be a guide in this time of need. This book is a stimulating and entertaining story for all who love adventure, and arouses thought-provoking questions for a culture confused about the true nature of manhood.
