Focuses on the complex and fruitful relationship between Shakespeare's texts and psychoanalytic theory.

Shakespeare in Psychoanalysis

How can it be that a person of flesh and blood should lack a shadow? And why does the enigmatic blind old man known as the Talantine seem to be following him? These are the questions confronting Tupilu, a minor prince of the royal family of Hatti, who, at the age of nine, confronts a shocking discovery about himself. The answers to those questions lie in the astonishing truth about Tupilu's mysterious mother, who died shortly after his birth. But he must wait a further ten years before the Talantine will reveal the whole truth; of the unique and terrifying destiny that he was born to; of the peril facing the world; and of the existence of talkative daemon, Pellilu, whose task is to keep Tupilu safe. Firmly rooted in the richly-detailed history of the Late Bronze Age, The Shadow Prince is an epic fantasy, charting the journey of Tupilu and his most trusted friends, as they attempt to avert catastrophe. It is a path that will entangle him in the cosmological struggle of warring gods and duplicitous daemons, and with conniving politicians and murderous agents of foreign powers. Leaving his home in the Hittite Empire, his journey takes him to the damaged Oracle of Haleb, the court of the powerful King Solomon, and on to an explosive confrontation with Pharaoh Horemheb and his ruthless Visier, Paramessu, and an apocalyptic reckoning amid the exotic grandeur of Kemet (Egypt), in a bid to prevent Sutekh, God of Chaos and Destruction, escaping his Netherworld prison and destroying the fabric of reality itself. 'The Shadow Prince' is he first volume of an epic historical fantasy series, 'The Chronicles of Tupiluliuma'. "Armstrong combines fantasy elements with the stunningly realized real world history of Bronze Age Anatolia and Egypt in the opening chapter of a sweeping narrative that is thrilling, moving and at times funny."

What Animals Mean in the Fiction of Modernity argues that nonhuman animals, and stories about them, have always been closely bound up with the conceptual and material work of modernity. In the first half of the book, Philip Armstrong examines the function of animals and animal representations in four classic narratives: Robinson Crusoe, Gulliver’s Travels, Frankenstein and Moby-Dick. He then goes on to explore how these stories have been re-worked, in ways that reflect shifting social and environmental forces, by later novelists, including H.G. Wells, Upton Sinclair, D.H. Lawrence, Ernest Hemingway, Franz Kafka, Brigid Brophy, Bernard Malamud, Timothy Findley, Will Self, Margaret Atwood, Yann Martel and J.M. Coetzee. What Animals Mean in the Fiction of Modernity also introduces readers to new developments in the study of human-animal relations. It does so by attending both to the significance of animals to humans, and to animals’ own purposes or designs; to what animals mean to us, and to what they mean to do, and how they mean to live.

Stories that affirm the indelible bond among humans and animals The relationships among human and non-human animals go back to the beginning of time—and the ways in which these relationships have evolved (and sometimes not) is the inspiration for this collection of contemporary short fiction, penned by writers from across the globe. This diverse collection of stories explores the ways in which we live among—and often in conflict with—our non-human counterparts. These stories feature animals from the familiar (dogs and cats) to the exotic (elands and emus), and in these stories animals are both the rescuers and the rescued. Within these pages are glimpses of the world through the eyes of a zookeeper, a shelter worker, a penguin researcher, and a neighborhood stray, among many others—all highlighting the ways in which animals and humans understand and challenge one another. Among Animals is a dynamic collection of stories from the world’s most gifted contemporary authors—those who pay close attention to the creatures with whom we share our planet, and who inspire us to pay closer attention as well.
