ELVIS PRESLEY HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL PERSPECTIVES ON A MODERN ICON

ELVIS PRESLEY HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL PERSPECTIVES ON A MODERN ICON

Elvis Presley has made a mark in history beyond his lifetime. While not a giant historical figure on the scale of Plato. Julius Caesar, Washington, Napoleon or Stalin, he still commands attention. Presley has a legacy that is still controversial as a man who rose up and made it to the top of his field, rock ‘n’ roll music.

Presley has a cultural legacy in the English language with expressions that few other artists have. He is part of the culture in ways that go beyond the music. Rock music in the 1950s spurred social change and Presley was not the first, but permitted others to follow.

Dire Straits: The Perils of Writing the Early Modern English Coastline from Leland to Milton

Dire Straits: The Perils of Writing the Early Modern English Coastline from Leland to Milton

England became a centrally important maritime power in the early modern period, and its writers – acutely aware of their inhabiting an island – often depicted the coastline as a major topic of their works. However, early modern English versifiers had to reconcile this reality with the classical tradition, in which the British Isles were seen as culturally remote compared to the centrally important Mediterranean of antiquity. This was a struggle for writers not only because they used the classical tradition to legitimate their authority, but also because this image dominated cognitive maps of the oceanic world.As the first study of coastlines and early modern English literature, Dire Straits investigates the tensions of the classical tra

The King of Sting: The Amazing True Story of a Modern American Outlaw Reviews

The King of Sting: The Amazing True Story of a Modern American Outlaw

“A high-flying, adrenaline-filled story with the feel of the movie The Sting.”—BooklistCraig Glazer was an ordinary college student when he planned and successfully executed his first fake sting to get back at some drug dealers who had robbed him. The rush he got from the experience led him and a crew of 11 accomplices to mastermind a two-year, 33-sting spree that stretched coast to coast, posing as everything from local police to IRS agents and hotel managers.

Glazer and Donald Woodbeck, his partner in crime, sniffed out some of the most sought-after drug lords in the country for the FBI and DEA like bloodhounds. For a while, the plan worked—until Craig’s world came crashing down. 32 black-and-white photographs
