world's most famous monsters. Dracula (voiced by Adam Sandler) is
the proprietor of Hotel Transylvania, a luxury hotel for monsters
who need to relax and recover from their relentless persecution by

turns up unexpectedly, Dracula must do all he can to prevent Mavis
from falling in love with him.
2 Peter of Aillyl wrote his Concepts and Insolubles, according to
the best 3 estimate, in 1372. He was at that time only about
twenty-two years old. He was born around 1350" in Compiegne in the
De de France, although his 5 family name associates him with the
village of Ailly in Picardy. In 1364 he entered the University of
Paris as a 'bursar' (i. e., the recipient of a scholarship) at the
College de Navarre. He received the degree of Bachelor of Arts in
1367 and taught there until 1368, when he entered the Faculty of
Theology. He became a Doctor of Theology in 1381. In the years that
followed, Peter was very active in the 'conciliar' movement and in
negotiations to bring about the end of the Great Schism of the
West. He was elevated to the rank of Cardinal in 1411 by Pope John
XXIII, the successor of Alexander V in the 'Pisa' line of Popes. He
took an active part in the Council of Constance (1414-1418), which
ended the Great Schism and elected Pope Martin V. Peter died on
August 9, 1420. Most of the secondary literature on Peter of Ailly
concerns his role in church politics, his writings on the Schism
and on ecclesiastical reform, and various aspects of his theology.
But Peter was active in a number of other areas as well. He wrote
several works, for instance, on geography and astron 6 omy,
including an Imago mundi read by Christopher Columbus."

This groundbreaking anthology engages the theme of abolition
feminisms, a political tradition grounded in radical anti-violence
organizing, Black feminist and feminist of color rebellion,
survivor knowledge production, strategies devised inside and across
prison walls, and a full, fierce refusal of race-gender pathology
and punitive control. This analysis disrupts the politics of
carceral feminism as conversations about the ramifications of the
prison-industrial complex continue. Contributors include: molly
ackhurst, Anne-lise Ah-fat, Asantewaa Boykin, Melanie Brazzell,

First published in 1999, the groundbreaking Exile and Pride is
essential to the history and future of disability politics. Eli
Clare's revelatory writing about his experiences as a white
disabled genderqueer activist/writer established him as one of the
leading writers on the intersections of queerness and disability
and permanently changed the landscape of disability politics and
queer liberation. With a poet's devotion to truth and an activist's
demand for justice, Clare deftly unspools the multiple histories
from which our ever-evolving sense of self unfolds. His essays
weave together memoir, history, and political thinking to explore
meanings and experiences of home: home as place, community, bodies,
identity, and activism. Here readers will find an intersectional
framework for understanding how we actually live with the daily
hydraulics of oppression, power, and resistance. At the root of
Clare's exploration of environmental destruction and capitalism,
sexuality and institutional violence, gender and the body politic,
is a call for social justice movements that are truly accessible to
everyone. With heart and hammer, Exile and Pride pries open a
window onto a world where our whole selves, in all their
complexity, can be realized, loved, and embraced.
Animated comedy featuring the voice of David Spade as Inca Emperor
Kuzco, a rich, vain man who takes delight in other people's
misfortunes. His former-advisor Yzma (Eartha Kitt) would like to
get rid of him and hatches a plan to poison him. But when this is
botched by Yzma's assistant and instead the potion turns Kuczo into
a lowly (but talking) llama, Kuzco finds that he has to learn what
life is like for the people at the bottom. Kuzco enlists the help
of a poor farmer (voiced by John Goodman) to get him back to the
palace and find a sorcerer that can reverse the spell whilst
dodging Yzma and her assistant who are still trying to finish off
their evil plan. The film features songs by Sting, one of which was
nominated for an Oscar.
This is the first complete English translation of On the Purity of
the Art of Logic, a handbook of logic written in Latin by English
philosopher Walter Burley (c. 1275-1344/5). The work circulated in
the Middle Ages in two versions, a shorter and a longer one, both
translated here by Paul Vincent Spade. The translations arc based
on the only complete edition of Burley's treatises, corrected by
Spade on the basis of one of the surviving manuscripts. The book
also includes an extensive introduction, explanatory notes, a table
of corresponding passages between the two versions, a select
annotated bibliography, and three indexes.
A contemporary of John Duns Scotus and William of Ockham, Burley
was active at the universities of both Paris and Oxford. He became
one of the most important figures in the transformation of medieval
logic and semantics that took place in the early fourteenth
century. Burley used new tools and techniques of logical and
semantical analysis, yet in many cases he used them in defense of
traditional views, such as a realist metaphysical theory of
"universals". On the Purity of the Art of Logic shows both these
sides of Burley -- the innovator and the conservative -- as well as
some of the ways in which his views corresponded or clashed with
those of William of Ockham.
Can modern science tell us what happened to Amelia Earhart? The
International Group for Historic Aircraft Recovery (TIGHAR) has
spent fifteen years searching for the famous lost pilot using
everything from archival research and archaeological survey to
side-scan sonar and the analysis of radio wave propagation. In this
spellbinding book, four of TIGHAR's scholars offer tantalizing
evidence that the First Lady of the Air and her navigator Fred
Noonan landed on an uninhabited tropical island but perished before
they could be rescued. Do they have Amelia's shoe? Parts of her
airplane? Are her bones tucked away in a hospital in Fiji? Come
join their fascinating expedition and examine the evidence for
yourself The new paperback edition brings the search up to the
present, including tantalizing evidence of campfires and charred
bones found on remote Nikumaroro. Visit the Authors' Web page for
more information.
The Franciscan William of Ockham was an English medieval philosopher, theologian, and political theorist. Ockham is important not only in the history of philosophy and theology, but also in the development of early modern science and of modern notions of property rights and church-state relations. This volume offers a full discussion of all significant aspects of Ockham's thought: logic, philosophy of language, metaphysics and natural philosophy, epistemology, ethics, action theory, political thought and theology. It is the first study of Ockham in any language to make full use of the new critical editions of his works, and to consider recent discoveries concerning his life, education, and influences.
'This sentence is false' - is that true? The 'Liar paradox'
embodied in those words exerted a particular fascination on the
logicians of the Western later Middle Ages, and, along with similar
'insoluble' problems, forms the subject of the first group of
articles in this volume. In the following parts Professor Spade
turns to medieval semantic theory, views on the relationship
between language and thought, and to a study of one particular
genre of disputation, that known as 'obligationes'. The focus is on
the Oxford scholastics of the first half of the 14th century, and
it is the name of William of Ockham which dominates these pages - a
thinker with whom Professor Spade finds himself in considerable
philosophical sympathy, and whose work on logic and semantic theory
has a depth and richness that have not always been sufficiently
appreciated.
Revised and Expanded Edition Wait-what's wrong with rights? It is
usually assumed that trans and gender nonconforming people should
follow the civil rights and "equality" strategies of lesbian and
gay rights organizations by agitating for legal reforms that would
ostensibly guarantee nondiscrimination and equal protection under
the law. This approach assumes that the best way to address the
poverty and criminalization that plague trans populations is to
gain legal recognition and inclusion in the state's institutions.
But is this strategy effective? In Normal Life Dean Spade presents
revelatory critiques of the legal equality framework for social
change, and points to examples of transformative grassroots trans
activism that is raising demands that go beyond traditional civil
rights reforms. Spade explodes assumptions about what legal rights
can do for marginalized populations, and describes transformative
resistance processes and formations that address the root causes of
harm and violence. In the new afterword to this revised and
expanded edition, Spade notes the rapid mainstreaming of trans
politics and finds that his predictions that gaining legal
recognition will fail to benefit trans populations are coming to
fruition. Spade examines recent efforts by the Obama administration
and trans equality advocates to "pinkwash" state violence by
articulating the US military and prison systems as sites for trans
inclusion reforms. In the context of recent increased mainstream
visibility of trans people and trans politics, Spade continues to
advocate for the dismantling of systems of state violence that
shorten the lives of trans people. Now more than ever, Normal Life
is an urgent call for justice and trans liberation, and the radical
transformations it will require.

Lambda Literary Award Finalist - LGBTQ Anthology Written by and for
trans and non-binary survivors of domestic violence and sexual
assault, Written on the Body offers support, guidance and hope for
those who struggle to find safety at home, in the body, and other

met with disbelief. The book holds the concerns and truths that
many trans people share while offering space for dialogue and
reclamation. Written with intelligence and intimacy, this book is
for those who have found power in re-shaping their bodies,
families, and lives.
