Horror film based on the 1978 'video nasty' shocker of the same
name. Sarah Butler stars as Jennifer, a writer who retreats to a
cabin in the woods to begin work on her new book. While there, she
is brutally raped by a group of local men whom she encountered en
route to the cabin. The attack escalates and Jennifer only narrowly
escapes with her life - but survive she does, and returns to the
locale to carry out the most gruesome revenge on her attackers that
she can possibly devise.
Case-studies of whether and how heritage can be used to bring about
reconciliation. This volume explores one of the most critical
issues of our time: whether heritage can contribute to a more
peaceful society and future. It reflects a core belief that
heritage can provide solutions to reconciling peoples and
demonstrates the amount of significant work being carried out
internationally. Based round the core themes of new and emerging
ideas around heritage and peace, heritage and peace-building in
practice, and heritage, peace-building andsites, the twenty
contributions seek to raise perceptions and understanding of
heritage-based peace-building practices. Responding to the emphasis
placed on conflict, war and memorialization, they reflect
exploratory yet significant steps towards reclaiming the history,
theory, and practice of peacebuilding as serious issues for
heritage in contemporary society. The geographical scope of the
book includes contributions from Europe, notably the Balkans
andNorthern Ireland, the Middle East, and Kenya. Diana Walters is
an International Heritage Consultant and Honorary Senior Research
Fellow at the University of Exeter; Daniel Laven is Associate
Professor of Human Geography, Department of Tourism Studies and

Writing shortly after Aelred of Rievaulx died on 12 January 1167,
Walter Daniel, his secretary and fellow monk, has created the
picture of Aelred which endures to this day. We come to know a man
of 'charity and astonishing sanctity', an ailing abbot whose monks
sat chatting around his bed. Only in passing do we glimpse the
ambitious young steward at the court of King David of Scotland, the
ecclesiastical diplomat and political counselor who moved easily in
royal and episcopal circles, or the canny property manager who
guided his monasteries to prosperity. From Walter's pen we have a
gentle, loving, ascetic abbot who offered spiritual guidance to his
monks through conversation and to a wider audience through the
treatises he composed, and who died a holy death. The reaction the
Life provoked suggest that some contemporaries outside Rievaulx
entertained a different picture of the abbot of Rievaulx. Whether
motivated by simple dislike, by envy, or by dissatisfaction at a
hastily informal 'canonization', the critics stung the indignant
Walter to response. Perhaps they, like Walter, viewed as
irreconcilable and struggled to keep apart two worlds which Aelred
himself integrated and brought together.
