The poetry of Robert Browning (1812–89) makes unmistakable use of the tropes of the eighteenth-century Gothic novel, but only in…
the last few years has there been any interest in the poet’s wider relationship with the genre. Building on recent critical literature, Robert Browning and the Gothic Imagination is the first study systematically to demonstrate Gothic’s importance in Browning’s intellectual formation and development. It shows how a Gothic perspective enables him to explore complex and obscure emotions in his characters, while giving some of his most important poems the narrative propulsion of popular fiction. In doing so, it restores Browning to a place at the heart of nineteenth-century Gothic literature. The book will be of interest to academics and postgraduate students in the fields of Victorian literature and Gothic studies.

Freedom is generally thought of as the ability to achieve goals and satisfy desires. But what are the sources of…
these goals and desires? If they arise from ignorance, habitual patterns, and negative emotions, is the freedom to pursue these goals true freedom—or is it just a myth? In this book, Chögyam Trungpa explores the meaning of freedom in the profound context of Tibetan Buddhism. He shows how our attitudes, preconceptions, and even our spiritual practices can become chains that bind us to repetitive patterns of frustration and despair. He also explains how meditation can bring into focus the causes of frustration, and how these negative forces can aid us in advancing toward true freedom. Trungpa's unique ability to express the essence of Buddhist teachings in the language and imagery of contemporary American culture makes this book one of the best sources of the Buddhist doctrine ever written. This edition also contains a foreword by Pema Chödrön, a close student of Chögyam Trungpa and the best-selling author of When Things Fall Apart.

From acclaimed historian and author of the &“marvelous&” (The New York Times Book Review) The Last American Aristocrat comes a…
captivating new biography of Teddy Roosevelt, exploring the life of America&’s 26th president and his pivotal role in shaping the dawn of the American Century.Theodore Roosevelt was one of America&’s most fascinating presidents—a complex man both publicly and privately. In this sweeping biography, historian David S. Brown takes us on an electrifying journey through Theodore Roosevelt&’s life—from his privileged New York upbringing to his transformative presidency that reshaped America&’s role on the global stage. In the Arena vividly brings Roosevelt to life as a man of striking contradictions: a rugged outdoorsman with a love for books, a war hero who earned a Nobel Peace Prize, and a larger-than-life figure whose energy seemed boundless. Through compelling storytelling and meticulous research, Brown explores the pivotal moments that forged Roosevelt&’s indomitable spirit, from battling childhood asthma to witnessing the deaths of both his mother and his wife on the same day, to wrangling cattle in the West and preserving 150 million acres of national land. Challenging traditional views, In the Arena offers a fresh perspective on Roosevelt&’s groundbreaking political legacy, including his Square Deal policies that laid the groundwork for modern social welfare programs. It also unpacks his bold foreign policy, which expanded America&’s global influence and set the stage for its rise as a world power. Brown argues that Roosevelt&’s charisma and performative presidency helped bridge the old Victorian values with the new industrial age, capturing the attention of the middle-class and making him a leader that the people loved. Drawing comparisons to works like David McCullough&’s Mornings on Horseback, Brown&’s narrative stands out for its rich detail and sharp insights. More than just an account of a presidency—it&’s an exploration of a life lived on the edge of greatness and is a must-read for anyone who wants to better understand this critical period of American history.
