There is no power quite like the strength of love. It cannot be surpassed, and if challenged, it brings sorrow and pain to those who resist. This is the story of William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. It is a tale not only familiar within the city walls of Verona but also prevalent in other regions of our planet, revealing the short-sightedness of individuals opposing love for their own ends. A similar story occurred in the year 1698 in the Dutch region of the Zaanse Schans, located to the north of Amsterdam. It was a bustling industrial area, where mills processed imported raw materials into refined goods that were then sent back to Amsterdam, the global trade center, for distribution across the world. The town was under the influence of two families who held opposing religious beliefs. The Catholic family, led by Maarten van de Bergh, and the Calvinist Hooft family, headed by the vengeful Cornelis Hooft. Unfortunately, fortune did not favor Cornelis in his endeavors, while his rival Maarten flourished in his undertakings. Cornelis attributed his misfortune to the Catholics, accusing them of foul play. He couldn't comprehend why God did not act justly, considering his family's adherence to Protestant principles. The conflict between the families escalated to such an extent that it had repercussions on the investments made by the Sephardic financier Francisco Mendes do Pinto. Seeking a resolution, Francisco remained unaware of the impulsive nature of his nephew Parigi, a wealthy Jewish merchant from the Levant. Parigi, captivated by the radiant beauty of Cornelis's daughter Juliana, resolved to marry her and offered a bridal gift that Cornelis could not refuse, thus securing a life of financial tranquility. However, Juliana's heart yearns for a man she has always longed to meet - Ramboud, the hardworking son of her father's rival, Maarten van den Bergh. Ramboud tirelessly maintains the Cacao mill across the river. The marriage arrangement thrusts Juliana into Ramboud's embrace and seals their love for eternity. Will this tale unfold as tragically as the story of Juliet and Romeo, or will the power of love triumph over the desires of those who oppose it? This is a narrative that delves into religious conflicts during Holland's golden age, offering a glimpse into the daily lives of the Dutch people during a time of prosperity.

This volume investigates the frameworks that can be applied to reading Caribbean author Jean Rhys. While Wide Sargasso Sea famously displays overt forms of literary influences, Jean Rhys's entire oeuvre is so fraught with connections to other texts and textual practices across geographical boundaries that her classification as a cosmopolitan modernist writer is due for reassessment. Transnational Jean Rhys argues against the relative isolationism that is sometimes associated with Rhys's writing by demonstrating both how she was influenced by a wide range of foreign – especially French – authors and how her influence was in turn disseminated in myriad directions. Including an interview with Black Atlantic novelist Caryl Phillips, this collection charts new territories in the influences on/of an author known for her dislike of literary coteries, but whose literary communality has been underestimated.

Against Value in the Arts and Education proposes that it is often the staunchest defenders of art who do it the most harm, by suppressing or mollifying its dissenting voice, by neutralizing its painful truths, and by instrumentalizing its ambivalence. The result is that rather than expanding the autonomy of thought and feeling of the artist and the audience, art’s defenders make art self-satisfied, or otherwise an echo-chamber for the limited and limiting self-description of people’s lives lived in an “audit culture”, a culture pervaded by the direct and indirect excrescence of practices of accountability. This book diagnoses the counter-intuitive effects of the rhetoric of value. It posits that the auditing of values pervades the fabric of people’s work-lives, their education, and increasingly their everyday experience. The book uncovers figures of resentment, disenchantment and alienation fostered by the dogma of value. It argues instead that value judgments can behave insidiously, and incorporate aesthetic, ethical or ideological values fundamentally opposed to the “value” they purportedly name and describe. The collection contains contributions from leading scholars in the UK and US with contributions from anthropology, the history of art, literature, education, musicology, political science, and philosophy.

Paul West is in deep financial merde. His only way out of debt is to accept a decidedly dodgy job: _________________ It involves him touring America in a Mini, while pretending to be typically British. Also in the car is Paul's French girlfriend, Alexa, and his American poet friend, Jake, whose main aim in life is to sleep with a woman from every country in the world. Preferably in the back of Paul's Mini. But as the little car battles from New York to Miami, leg-room turns out to be the least of Paul's troubles. His work is being sabotaged, his tour plans are in tatters, and his love life becomes a Franco-American war zone. And as Paul knows better than anyone, when you mix love and war - merde happens...

Poetry of life in literature and through literature, and the vast territory in between - as vast as human life itself - where they interact and influence each other, is the nerve of human existence. Whether we are aware of it or not, we are profoundly dissatisfied with the stark reality of life's swift progress onward, and the enigmatic and irretrievable meaning of the past. And so we dramatise our existence, probing deeply for a lyrical and heartfelt yet universally valid sense of our experience. It is in great works of literature that we seek those hidden springs that so move us. It is in honour of this search that this collection focuses on the creative imagination at work in literature and aesthetics.

Jean Rhys' position upon the literary map of the 20th century remains unstable, even after Wide Sargasso Sea (1966). She shunned public exposure and yet, desperately sought acknowledgement by her own peers; she stood away from the modernist circles of Montparnasse, in Paris, and yet, explored a radically avant-garde writing which retrospectively makes her rank among them, while her always problematic authority places her in the marginalized position of the postcolonial author. 'Writing precariously', in the case of Jean Rhys, reaches far beyond a mere posture of submission or a necessity to cope with a lack of money or a 'room of one’s own'. Rather, it becomes an ethical and political stance that engages with forms of minimal resistance to forms of subjection just as the very precariousness of her writing thwarts any efforts to 'place' her or her work, to frame her characters or label her style. With Jean Rhys, precariousness is the site where voices silenced and bodies dismissed by a gendered or imperialistic power may be retrieved, until their vulnerability becomes a dislodging force that makes the power structures precarious in turn. This book reassesses the precariousness of Jean Rhys as a distinct positionality eliciting an isolated voice which insists and persists. It was originally published as a special issue of the journal, Women: A Cultural Review.
