Everybody in Peking knew that the former palace of Prince Kong was haunted by a hulijing. Irreverent Americans were actually pleased to share their home with a fox fairy, especially on learning that the mysterious animal could transform itself into a beautiful woman, who had been glimpsed sauntering in the gardens of the Red Chamber Court by moonlight or gliding between the columns of the covered walk.

Margaret Zee is the pen name of Margaret Krenz St. Clair Keenan. Zee is the author of Peking Dust, a memoir of her childhood growing up in Old Peking in the pre-communist era, when China's ancient capital was one of the most exotic and beautiful cities in the world. She has also written two novels focusing on that magical old city: A Palace in Peking and Hoo Lee Jing (Fox fairy). The present audacious literary work, entitled All My Loves, is a total departure from Zee's previous writings. She labels it a novel, but with a question mark. Each chapter is a complete story in itself, but each is narrated in the first person by a character named Margaret Arden. The stories are candid accounts of episodes in Margaret Arden's adventuresome and fantastic love life.

“This wonderful book asks us to consider the mermaid . . . across regions, nations, diasporas, and contemporary socio-cultural configurations.” —Paige West, Claire Tow Professor of Anthropology, Barnard College, Columbia University Emerging from the confluence of Greco-Roman mythology and regional folklore, the mermaid has been an enduring motif in Western culture since the medieval period. It has also been disseminated more widely, initially through Western trade and colonization and, more recently, through the increasing globalization of media products and outlets. Scaled for Success offers the first detailed overview of the mermaid’s dispersal outside Europe. Complementing previous studies of the interrelationship between the mermaid and Mami Wata spirit in West Africa, this volume addresses the mermaid’s presence in a range of Middle Eastern, Asian, Australian, Latin American and North American contexts. Individual chapters identify the manner in which the mermaid has been variously syncretized and/or resignified in contexts as diverse as Indian public statuary, Thai cinema and Coney Islands annual Mermaid Parade. Rather than lingering as a relic of a bygone age, the mermaid emerges as a versatile, dynamic and, above all, polyvalent figure. Her prominence exemplifies the manner in which contemporary media-lore has extended the currency of established folkloric figures in new and often surprising ways. Analyzing aspects of religious symbolism, visual art, literature and contemporary popular culture, this copiously illustrated volume profiles an intriguing and highly diverse phenomenon. “No matter the reader’s background (literature, folklore, media or cultural studies, and beyond), there is no denying that this work will be a valuable addition to the library of anyone fascinated with mermaids.” —Western Folklore

United in loss and new hope for their daughters' futures, they call themselves the Joy Luck Club.

This carefully crafted ebook: "ULYSSES (Modern Classics Series)" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. Ulysses is a modernist novel by Irish writer James Joyce. It is considered to be one of the most important works of modernist literature, and has been called "a demonstration and summation of the entire movement". Ulysses chronicles the peripatetic appointments and encounters of Leopold Bloom in Dublin in the course of an ordinary day, 16 June 1904. Ulysses is the Latinised name of Odysseus, the hero of Homer's epic poem Odyssey, and the novel establishes a series of parallels between its characters and events and those of the poem (the correspondence of Leopold Bloom to Odysseus, Molly Bloom to Penelope, and Stephen Dedalus to Telemachus). Joyce divided Ulysses into 18 chapters or "episodes". At first glance much of the book may appear unstructured and chaotic; Joyce once said that he had "put in so many enigmas and puzzles that it will keep the professors busy for centuries arguing over what I meant", which would earn the novel "immortality". James Joyce (1882-1941) was an Irish novelist and poet, considered to be one of the most influential writers in the modernist avant-garde of the early 20th century. Joyce is best known for Ulysses, the short-story collection Dubliners, and the novels A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man and Finnegans Wake.

Asian Gothic written by Andrew Hock Soon Ng and has been published by McFarland this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2008-01-21 with Literary Criticism categories.
The essays in this collection acknowledge the rich Gothic tradition in Asian narratives that deal with themes of the fantastic, the macabre, and the spectral. Through close analyses of Asian works using the theoretical framework outlined by Gothic criticism, these essays seek to expand the notion of the Gothic to include several popular Asian works. Broadly divided into essays on postcolonial Asian Gothic, Asian-American Gothic, and the Gothic writings of specific Asian nations, this volume covers a wide variety of Asian texts. The essays of Part One demonstrate the flexibility of Postcolonial Gothic literature in adopting divergent or even contradictory ideologies. Part Two evokes the Gothic as the theoretical framework from which to interrogate the writings of Asian-American authors Maxine Hong Kingston, Sky Lee, lě thi diem thuy and David Henry Hwang. Part Three studies the Gothic tradition in the national literatures of China, Japan, Korea, and Turkey.
