‘I’m an outsider to the end of my days!’ Jude Fawley’s hopes of a university education are lost when he is trapped into marrying the earthy Arabella, who later abandons him. Moving to the town of Christminster where he finds work as a stonemason, Jude meets and falls in love with his cousin Sue Bridehead, a sensitive, freethinking ‘New Woman’. Refusing to marry merely for the sake of religious convention, Jude and Sue decide instead to live together, but they are shunned by society and poverty soon threatens to ruin them. Jude the Obscure, Hardy’s last novel, caused a public furore when it was first published, with its fearless and challenging exploration of class and sexual relationships. This edition uses the unbowdlerized text of the first volume edition of 1895, and also includes a list for further reading, appendices and a glossary. In his introduction, Dennis Taylor examines biblical allusions and the critique of religion in Jude the Obscure, and its critical reception that led Hardy to abandon novel writing.

The question of Shakespeareas Catholic contexts has occupied many
scholars in recent years, and their growing body of work has been
enriched by revisionist accounts of the Reformation society and
culture in which he lived and worked. This innovative book brings
together sixteen original essays by leading scholars who examine
Shakespeareas works in light of this new scholarship: their goal is
to explore a possible interpretive consensus from Protestant,
Catholic, and secular perspectives. Offering stimulating new
approaches to traditional problems in Shakespeare studies, the
essays provide a fully developed picture of Shakespeareas relation
to the Reformationain the light of newly unearthed religious
contexts. From the monastic life in Measure for Measure to
Puritanism in Hamlet, the essays offer fresh understandings of such
themes as majority cultures, national self-definition, hidden
trauma, and concealed identity. The contributors: Dennis Taylor,
Richard Dutton, Katharine Goodland, Clare Asquith, Jean-Christophe
Mayer, Timothy Rosendale, Gary D. Hamilton, Regina M. Buccola, John
Klause, John Freeman, R. Chris Hassel Jr., Jennifer Rust, David
Beauregard, Maurice Hunt, Lisa Hopkins, Richard Mallette, and Paula
McQuade.

Intimate Warfare: The True Story of the Arturo Gatti and Micky Ward
Boxing Trilogy traces the lives and careers of two legendary
fighters-Micky Ward, a humble, hardscrabble, blue-collar Irishman
from Lowell, Massachusetts, and Arturo Gatti, a handsome, flashy,
charismatic Italian-born star who was raised in Montreal. Dennis
Taylor and John J. Raspanti paint a vivid portrait of these two
fighters who ushered each other into boxing lore and formed an
unlikely friendship despite their brutal battles in the ring.
Gatti's life would end tragically and mysteriously just a few years
later, but his name and Ward's remain tied together in boxing
history. In Intimate Warfare, each of the three spectacular fights
between Gatti and Ward, two of which were named The Ring magazine's
"Fight of the Year," are described in detail. Multiple photographs
from the trilogy highlight the intensity and power of these epic
collisions. With a foreword by former world champion and
International Boxing Hall of Famer Ray "Boom Boom" Mancini, this
book will be of interest to all fans of boxing.
