In the aftermath of Unity and in the daring tradition of Spock`s World, The Final Reflection, and A Stitch in Time, the civilizations most closely tied to Star Trek: Deep Space Nine can now be experienced as never before…in tales both sweeping and intimate, reflective and prophetic, eerily familiar and utterly alien. FERENGINAR: Quark`s profit-driven homeworld is rocked with scandal as shocking allegations involving his brother`s first wife, the mother of Nog, threaten to overthrow Rom as Grand Nagus of the Ferengi Alliance. Making matters worse, Quark has been recruited byRom`s political adversaries to join their coup d`etat, with guarantees of all Quark ever dreamed if they succeed in taking his brother down.

The Donut: A Canadian History

2008 y.
Publisher: University of Toronto Press
Description: In Canada, the donut is often thought of as the unofficial national food. Donuts are sold at every intersection and rest stop, celebrated in song and story as symbols of Canadian identity, and one chain in particular, Tim Horton`s, has become a veritable icon with over 2500 shops across the country. But there is more to the donut than these and other expressions of `snackfood patriotism` would suggest. In this study, Steve Penfold puts the humble donut in its historical context, examining how one deep-fried confectionary became, not only a mass commodity, but an edible symbol of Canadianness. Penfold examines the history of the donut in light of broader social, economic, and cultural issues, and uses the donut as a window onto key developments in twentieth-century Canada such as the growth of a `consumer society,` the relationship between big business and community, and the ironic qualities of Canadian national identity. He goes on to explore the social and political… [detailed...]

The Doryman`s Reflection: A Fisherman`s Life

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Fishermen exist as relics, the last hunter-gatherers among us. Their boats, crammed with ropes and nets, carry the mystique of a near-forgotten world ruled by the elements. This is the story of Bernard Raynes, one of Maine`s last independent commercial fishermen. The author, now an accomplished writer, was once Raynes`s apprentice — then a young man with no experience who came to Maine with a dream of working on a boat. In the early 1980s, these two men shared some of the fishing industry’s best years. But their world changed. Author Paul Molyneaux discusses the factors — personal and political, environmental and economic — that led to the decline of New England fishing. While Raynes still hangs on, thanks to a philosophy of hard work, consolidation leaves few choices for young fishermen. For over three centuries, Raynes’s ancestors invested their futures in the lives of fish. They learned to think like fish. Few today could match his… [detailed...]

The Double Content Of Art (Studies in Analytic Philosophy)

2004 y.
Publisher: Prometheus Books
Description: In this original work on aesthetics, John Dilworth offers an unusual theory of the nature of artworks. The Double Content (DC) view is the first comprehensive theory of art that is able to satisfactorily explain the nature of all kinds of artworks in a unified way — whether paintings, novels, or musical and theatrical performances. Dilworth’s basic thesis is that all such representational artworks involve two levels or kinds of representation: a first stage in which a concrete artifact represents an artwork, and a second stage in which that artwork in turn represents its subject matter. Thus Dilworth describes his approach as a double content (DC) theory, since arguably all content is the content of some representation or other. This fresh, even revolutionary, approach to art meets strong initial opposition from other current theories of art — for example, those that treat paintings as physical objects, or novels and other works of fiction as `types` that have copies or performances… [detailed...]

Fyodor Dostoyevsky
The Double

1997 y.
Publisher: Dover Publications
Description: While his literary reputation rests mainly on such celebrated novels as `Crime and Punishment`, `The Brothers Karamazov` and `The Idiot`, Dostoyevsky also wrote much superb short fiction. `The Double` is one of the finest of his shorter works. It appeared in 1846 (his second published work) and is by far the most significant of his early stories, not least for its successful, straight-faced treatment of a hallucinatory theme. In `The Double`, the protagonist, Golyadkin senior, is persecuted by his double, Golyadkin junior, who resembles him closely in almost every detail. The latter abuses the former with mounting scorn and brutality as the tale proceeds toward its frightening denouement. Characteristic Dostoyevskyan themes of helplessness, victimization and scandal are beautifully handled here with an artistry that qualifies the story as a small masterpiece. Students of literature, admirers of Dostoyevsky and general readers will all be delighted to have this… [detailed...]

Against his better judgment, Tertuliano decides to pursue his double. As he roots out the man`s identity, what begins as a whimsical story becomes a `wonderfully twisted meditation on identity and individuality` (The Boston Globe).
