"Demeter did not always live in fear. Once, the goddess of spring loved the world and the humans who inhabited it. After a devastating assault, though, she becomes a shell of herself. Her only solace is her daughter, Persephone. A balm to her mother's pain, Persephone grows among wildflowers, never leaving the sanctuary Demeter built for them. But she aches to explore the mortal world--to gain her own experiences. Naèive but determined, she secretly builds a life of her own under her mother's watchful gaze. But as she does so, she catches the eye of Hades, and is kidnapped...Forced into a role she never wanted, Persephone learns that power suits her. In the land of the living, though, Demeter is willing to destroy the humans she once held dear--anything to protect her family. A mother who has lost everything and a daughter with more to gain than she ever realized, their story will irrevocably shape the world."--

From New York Times bestselling authors W. Michael Gear and Kathleen O'Neal Gear comes part three in their gripping Anasazi mystery series.After uncovering an ancient mass grave in New Mexico, Archaeologists Dusty Stewart and Maureen Cole think things can't get any worse-until they begin excavating the charred remains of a ceremonial chamber and discover it's filled with the brutalised bones of children. Maureen, having analyzed similar mass graves in Iraq, takes it in stride. But Dusty's nightmares become so severe that he feels as though an evil presence has stepped across a narrow bridge of time and now walks the site beside them, invisible, but always present and haunting. With every uncovered artifact seemingly whispering in the voices of dead children, Dusty and Maureen wonder what kind form of evil could cause so much destruction-and if the overwhelming feeling of being followed will ever go away.In the year A.D. 1263, War Chief Browser enters the very same ceremonial chamber-but this time, it's filled with freshly dead bodies. Knowing there's a killer moving unseen through the ruins of a dying civilization, Browser recruits the skills of an old shaman to help him uncover the truth about the enigmatic murderer who's terrorizing their people.Will Dusty and Maureen ever be able to escape an ancient haunting and unearth truths based on archaeological findings alone?

This book demonstrates how the Romans constructed garden boundaries specifically in order to open up or undermine the division between a number of oppositions, such as inside/outside, sacred/profane, art/nature, and real/imagined. Using case studies from across literature and material and visual culture, Victoria Austen explores the perception of individual garden sites in response to their limits, and showcases how the Romans delighted in playing with concepts of boundedness and separation. Transculturally, the garden is understood as a marked-off and cultivated space. Distinct from their surroundings, gardens are material and symbolic spaces that constitute both universal and culturally specific ways of accommodating the natural world and expressing human attitudes and values. Although we define these spaces explicitly through the notions of separation and division, in many cases we are unable to make sense of the most basic distinction between 'garden' and 'not-garden'. In response to this ambiguity, Austen interrogates the notion of the 'boundary' as an essential characteristic of the Roman garden.

"What makes a demagogue? A much more friendly touch, or more importantly, a perception of a friendly touch, than has previously been explored. Demagogues, Power and Friendship in Classical Athens examines the ways in which a demagogic leadership style based on personal connection became ingrained in this period, drawing on close study of several genres of literature of the late 5th and early-to-mid 4th centuries BCE. Such connection was particularly effective with lower classes of Athenians, who had been accustomed to being excluded from politicians' friendship-based approaches to coalition-building. Comedies of Aristophanes (particularly Knights), tragedies of Euripides (particularly Iphigenia in Aulis), and historical biographies of Xenophon (particularly Anabasis and Cyropaedia) depict demagogues, or characters exhibiting demagogic characteristics, using a style of outreach to members of neglected classes that involved provoking feelings of friendship with individuals in these classes, whether the demagogues and individual supporters actually interacted closely or not. These leaders employed techniques, such as propinquity, homophily, and transitivity, that both contemporary sociologists (and, in some cases, Aristotle) recognize as effective for such purposes. Particular attention is paid to discrepancies in Aristophanes' Knights between how the demagogue Cleon is hyperbolically portrayed (as a pederastic lover of the Athenian people) and how his language and actions make him out - as a friend of theirs, as he likely portrayed himself"--
