With the romance of Twilight, the suspense of The Dresden Files, and the delicious thrills of True Blood, the enthralling saga of Magdalena Lazarus unfolds. Descended from the legendary witch of Ein Dor, she alone holds the power to summon the angel Raziel and stop Hitler and his supernatural minions from unleashing total war in Europe. The Nazis have fighters more fearsome than soldiers, weapons more terrifying than missiles, and allies that even they are afraid of SS werewolves; the demon Asmodel who possesses a willing Adolf Hitler, and other supernatural creatures all are literally hell-bent on preventing Magda from possessing the Book of Raziel, a magical text with the power to turn the tide against Hitler's vast war machine. Magda, young and rebellious, grew up in the cosmopolitan city of Budapest, unaware of her family's heritage. When her mother dies, Magda--ready or not--is the Lazarus, who must face the evil that holds Europe in an iron grip. Unready to assume the mantle of her ancient birthright, but knowing that she must fight, she sets out across Europe searching for the Book. Magda is desperate enough to endanger her soul by summoning the avenging angel Raziel. When she sees him in the glory of his celestial presence, her heart is utterly, completely lost...

Seminar paper from the year 2008 in the subject American Studies - Literature, grade: keine, University of Hamburg, course: American Poetry & Poetics, language: English, abstract: The name of Sylvia Plath is intrinsically tied to the literary movement of Confessional Poetry. Her poem “Lady Lazarus” is often regarded as the prime example of this genre, as it is “an apparent forecast of Plath’s suicide” (Middlebrook 644) only one year later. But the idea of a ‘confessional’ poetry that directly refers to the poet’s personal experience has lead Plath-Criticism astray for many years. Critics “have discussed Plath’s life and work as if they were exactly the same thing,” and have drawn bizarre conclusions by assuming “that Plath’s writing can be used as a reliable source for diagnosing her mental condition.”. It is obvious that this kind of immediate understanding of Confessional Poetry leads nowhere. As Tracy Brain puts it, in her essay about the dangers of reading Sylvia Plath’s work as an unfiltered outpour of personal experience (“Dangerous Concessions: Sylvia Plath”): How can we ever hope to distinguish the »extreme« »diction and address« that is prompted by lived events from a vividly imagined drama that is the result of an expertly assumed style? The answer is: We cannot. Still, one should not altogether ignore the context of the Confessional movement when interpreting Sylvia Plath. But how can Confessional Poetry be dealt with, without getting caught in the traps and pitfalls of a biographic reading? This essay will first try to detect the underlying principles of the so-called ‘Confessional Poetry’ and position it within literary history. By revealing some of the influences and conventions of Confessional Poetry it aims to uncover the deceiving strategies of this type of poetry. The subsequent interpretation of Sylvia Plath’s “Lady Lazarus” will then try to concentrate on the cultural and social context the poem was produce in and examine in which ways Plath used these different contexts as well as the deceiving strategies of Confessional Poetry in general, to create the unique character of the poem.

Revised and expanded from the Fixed Stars Govern a Life: Decoding Sylvia Plath system (2014, Stephen F. Austin State University Press), Decoding Sylvia Plath's "Lady Lazarus" is an affordable, concise, comprehensive analysis of Plath's poem "Lady Lazarus," written in a playful spirit that brings Plath out of the ashes of mere depressive autobiography and into the fascinating world of mysticism-in which Plath and her husband Ted Hughes had an intense interest. See what the academics have missed for over 50 years. Explore Plath's "Lady Lazarus" and how it perfectly aligns to reflect the "mirrors" of tarot and Qabalah, alchemy, mythology, history and the world, astrology and astronomy, and the arts and humanities. Gordon-Bramer surprises us with startling new insights and connections that, once seen, simply cannot be denied. She builds a strong case that we have yet to recognize Plath for her real genius and that Plath remains as relevant as ever. Back cover text: "Lady Lazarus" More than just a hot mess You get the sense already that Plath's "Lady Lazarus" is a fierce, angry, feminist poem. But do you know why? Can you explain it beyond your personal feeling or Plath's literal autobiography? Fans: Discover the parallel themes of the Statue of Liberty, the abolitionist, the feminist, and other exciting facts within "Lady Lazarus" that scholars have missed for over 50 years Poets & Writers: Judge for yourself how "Lady Lazarus" includes themes of Emma Lazarus' poem "The New Colossus," Sojourner Truth's "Ain't I a Woman?," and the Egyptian Book of the Dead's titles of Isis Students: Understand all themes and meanings beyond the superficial; learn why Plath used Jewish and Holocaust references in "Lady Lazarus," and enlighten your classmates to Plath's higher goals Teachers: Save time with a complete class plan, discussion questions and more Decoding Sylvia Plath's "Lady Lazarus" is the second in a series of Decoding books presenting Plath in compelling, original context, interpreted by the Fixed Stars Govern a Life: Decoding Sylvia Plath system, by author Julia Gordon-Bramer. What readers are saying about the Decoding Sylvia Plath series: "I am fascinated and intrigued by Julia Gordon-Bramer's wildly and dizzyingly original readings of Sylvia Plath's poems. Not only does she make me realize that I need to go back and read the poems again, she comes pretty close to convincing me that I have really never read them at all." -Troy Jollimore, National Book Critics Circle Award for Poetry, Guggenheim Fellowship for Creative Arts Recipient "Julia Gordon-Bramer's Decoding Sylvia Plath series presents the iconic poet in full three-dimensional view. Or six-dimensional, if you prefer. This Sylvia Plath is far more than the depressive, suicidal drama queen and father-hater depicted in easier accounts of the poet's life. Plath emerges as the genius's genius. Ms. Bramer's tone adds enjoyment to her already rigorous and penetrating work." -Robert Nazarene, founding editor, The American Journal of Poetry "This is a friendly, conversational approach so that students won't feel overwhelmed, and it talks about topics that other guides don't, allowing students to make original, insightful commentary on the work. The study guide is a worthwhile, useful investment for students." -Cathleen Allyn Conway, editor, Plath Profiles: An Interdisciplinary Journal for Plath Studies # pages

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2001 im Fachbereich Anglistik - Literatur, Note: 1,3, Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg (Anglistik), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In dem Gedicht "Lady Lazarus" aus dem Jahre 1962 beschreibt Sylvia Plath ihre eigenen Gefühle beim Suizid und der Wiederbelebung, sie erklärt damit ihr Streben nach dem Tode und ihren Haß auf sich und ihre "Leben". Der Titel "Lady Lazarus", ein Symbol für die Überwindung des Todes, verdeutlicht ihre Absichten. Sie will sterben, aber nicht wie er durch ein Wunder wiedererweckt werden. Lazarus war der Bruder von Maria und ein Freund Jesu. Er erkrankte und starb, vier Tage später erweckte ihn Jesus aber wieder von den Toten ( Johannesevangelium 11, 1-45 ). Schon auf frühchristlichen Sarkophagen wurde er als Symbol für "die den Tod überwindende Kraft" benutzt. Sein Name bedeutet auf hebräisch "Gott hat geholfen". Das "Lady" im Titel deutet an, daß sich Sylvia Plath mit dieser biblischen Figur identifiziert, sie wird ungewollt wieder ins Leben zurück geholt, trotzdem ist er der einzige, von dem sie denkt verstanden zu werden, da er auch starb und zurückgeholt wurde. Das Gedicht ist in achtundzwanzig Strophen unterteilt, jede drei Verse lang. Ein Reimschema ist nicht zu erkennen. Das gesamte Gedicht erinnert mehr an eine Erzählung, eine Aneinanderreihung verschiedener Bilder. Allerdings kann man die Strophen in vier Blöcke unterteilen. Im erste Block ( Str. 1 - 7 ) beschreibt sie sich selbst nach ihrem "ersten Tod". "my skin bright as a Nazi lampshade". Sie beschreibt sich selbst als eine Jüdin und generiert ein Nazimotiv, das besonders in den Strophen 22 - 27 hervortritt. "my right foot a paperweight" ist ein Bild für den Mißbrauch der Nazis an den Körpern der jüdischen Gefangenen. Sie fühlt sich mißbraucht durch ihre Wiederbelebung. Am Ende dieses Blockes vergleicht sie sich mit einer Katze, die neun Leben haben soll. Allerdings verdreht sie diese positive "Eigenschaft" ins Negative, da sie schreibt "And like the cat I have nine times to die." Also muß sie neun mal sterben, um wirklich endgültig gestorben zu sein. Dies zeigt drastisch wie sehr sie ihre Existenz bedauert.
