Looking beyond the familiar trappings of the cult of female chastity—such as hagiographies of widows and chastity shrines--in late imperial China, this book explores the cult's political significance and practical ramifications in everyday life during the eighteenth century. In the first full-length study of the subject, Janet Theiss examines a vast number of laws, legal cases, regulations, and policies to illustrate the social and political processes through which female virtue was defined, enforced, and contested. Along the way, she provides rich details of social life and cultural practices among ordinary Chinese people through narratives of criminal cases of sexual assault, harassment, adultery, and domestic violence.

Download Disgraceful Humans in our Post-Modern Society: Short Stories designed to convey some truth and moral lessons Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Within the tresses of reality there lies the unknown, which everyone sees and hears around them every day of their lives, and yet they do not know it exists. Should they look up they would find themselves in a reality so terrible and sickening that they wouldn't believe it, and would sink back into their fantasy. This book holds within its pages this truth, this reality, so vivid and crazy that it can't possibly be true, but it is. It's the things you don't see that matter. It's the things that crawl inside you and block your vision, until it's like you're inside a tunnel, and before the entrance caves in, you must realize what kind of place that this world is becoming, or in this case, has already become. Some of you don't notice, others of you do, and still remain untouched by it, living in a world devoted to yourself, a shrine to greed and evil. So, look up, see the world around you, by opening this book, and let its pages be the truth, for it is so.

Download Disgraceful Archaeology Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The book that all archaeology buffs have secretly been yearning for! This unique blend of text, anecdote and cartoon reveals, and revels in, those aspects of the past that have been ignored, glossed over or even suppressed — the bawdy, the scatological and the downright bizarre.Our ancestors were not always serious, downtrodden and fearful creatures. They were human like ourselves and shared our earthy sense of humour that is based on bodily functions, bawdiness and slapstick. So it’s time to take the fig leaf off the past and have a long, hard look at the real past — the world that would have had the Victorians reaching for their smelling salts. So if you want to know what your average Egyptian slave thought of pharaoh, or a Roman legionary thought of his commander, you will find the answer in Disgraceful Archaeology — in hilarious graphic detail!

A towering literary giant, Fyodor Dostoyevsky was—and remains—unparalleled in his understanding of the darkness that resides in the farthest corners of the human soul. Although his shorter works have been overshadowed by his astonishing novels—Crime and Punishment and The Brothers Karamazov, to name but two—his stories and novellas deserve a place among the great literary inventions of the modern era, offering insight into the themes and ideas that drive his longer fiction. Included in this volume are some of Dostoyevsky's most troubling, moving, and poignant short works. Bonus story Harper Perennial proudly supports the art of the short story. Included in this classic volume is a bonus story from one of our new writers, Barb Johnson, from her forthcoming collection, More of This World or Maybe Another. Read a short story today.
