Isaiah old and new : exegesis, intertextuality, and hermeneutics / by Witherington, Ben,III,1951-(CARDINAL)342819;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 497-508).The past is but a prologue? -- Isaianic fingerprints everywhere -- Early Isaiah - Isaiah 1-12 -- Later Isaiah - Isaiah 13-39 -- Eschatological Isaiah, Part One: Isaiah 40-55 -- Eschatological Isaiah, Part Two: Isaiah 56-66 -- Isaiah old and new : conclusions -- Appendix A: Intertextuality of a different sort -- Appendix B: Forward thinking on reading backwards dialogue and review -- Appendix C: Isaiah as "Christian" scripture : what should we think about that idea? : a detailed synopsis and critique of Brevard Childs, The struggle to understand Isaiah as Christian scripture -- Appendix D: A key to the Isaianic authorship puzzle? -- Appendix E: A review of Richard Hays's Echoes of scripture in the Gospels -- Appendix F: What should we think of intertexuality? -- Appendix G: Isaiah as architect, The use of Isaiah by the evangelists to structure their gospels (and Acts).Reading the Book of Isaiah in its original context is the crucial prerequisite for reading its citation and use in later interpretation, including the New Testament writings, argues Ben Witherington III. Here he offers pastors, teachers, and students an accessible commentary to Isaiah, as well as a reasoned consideration of how Isaiah was heard and read in early Christianity. By reading "forward and backward" Witherington advances the scholarly discussion of intertextuality and opens a new avenue for biblical theology.

Partially kept / by Ronk, Martha Clare.(CARDINAL)773873;
Includes bibliographical references (page 69)."In Partially Kept, Ronk's elegiac and lyrical poetry responds to a world marked by transience and loss. Quotations by 17th century essayist Sir Thomas Browne highlight historical shifts in language, creating intertextual poems that consider the botanical world, the art of photography, and philosophy. Ronk's attention to rhetoric and representation speak to the shifting temporality between one thing and another, between one mind and another"--Publisher's website.

Thunder on the stage : the dramatic vision of Richard Wright / by Dick, Bruce,1953-author.(CARDINAL)893943;
Includes bibliographical references and index.The ethics of acting Jim Crow -- From minstrelsy to Shakespeare to authentic Black theater : playwrights, writers, critics, and intertextual play -- Distant thunder : Wright, the Federal Theatre, and early attempts at writing plays -- Native Son on stage -- Orator, performer, and stage writer pursuing social change -- Boxing Jim Crow -- Reconstructing identity : the influence of Sartre, de Beauvoir, Camus, and others -- Acting Bigger Thomas -- "Daddy Goodness" : Richard Wright's last lampoon."Richard Wright's dramatic imagination guided the creation of his masterpieces Native Son and Black Boy and helped shape Wright's long-overlooked writing for theater and other performative mediums. Drawing on decades of research and interviews with Wright's family and Wright scholars, Bruce Allen Dick uncovers the theatrical influence on Wright's oeuvre--from his 1930s boxing journalism to his unpublished one-acts on returning Black GIs in WWII to his unproduced pageant honoring Vladimir Lenin. Wright maintained rewarding associations with playwrights, writers, and actors such as Langston Hughes, Theodore Ward, Paul Robeson, and Lillian Hellman, and took particular inspiration from French literary figures like Jean-Paul Sartre. Dick's analysis also illuminates Wright's direct involvement with theater and film, including the performative aspects of his travel writings; the Orson Welles-directed Native Son on Broadway; his acting debut in Native Son's first film version; and his play "Daddy Goodness," a satire of religious charlatans like Father Divine, in the 1930s. Bold and original, Thunder on the Stage offers a groundbreaking reinterpretation of a major American writer"--

The Abercrombie age : millennial aspiration and the promise of consumer culture / by Lascity, Myles Ethanauthor;
Includes bibliographical references and index."Be popular and good-looking-it's the key to a happy life. Luckily, with a bit of know-how and money, you, too, can have it all. At least, that's what teen pop culture was selling in surround sound at the turn of the millennium. From movies like Clueless to TV's Dawson's Creek to the music videos on MTV's Total Request Live and the catalogs of Abercrombie & Fitch, a consumer-minded ethos drove pop culture storytelling as millennials came of age in the late 1990s and early 2000s. But in the long shadow of the Great Recession, the upwardly mobile aspirations fostered by the era's popular culture and media seem to have been thwarted. Many millennials today lack the wealth their parents had at the same age, and the gaps between rich and poor rival those of the Gilded Age. The Abercrombie Age reconsiders teen popular culture from the turn of the twenty-first century, revealing how it told young people that life not only could but surely would get better. Far from frivolous or forgettable, the era's superficial, materialistic culture sold millennials unrealistic expectations of what life could offer, setting up a stark juxtaposition with the realities of today." --

Brown neon / by Gutiérrez, Raquel,1976-author.;
Includes bibliographical references."Part butch memoir, part ekphrastic travel diary, part queer family tree, Raquel Gutiérrez's debut essay collection Brown Neon gleans insight from the sediment of land and relationships. For Gutierrez, terrain is essential to understanding that no story, no matter how personal, is separate from the space where it unfolds. Whether contemplating the value of adobe as both vernacular architecture and commodified art object, highlighting areas of transphobia among lesbians and feminists, or recalling how one of their own romances unraveled, Gutiérrez traverses complex questions of gender, class, identity, and citizenship with curiosity and nuance"--
