#NOT EVEN WRONG. PAUL.COLLINS EPUB SERIES#
Not surprisingly, as medieval law books, romances and short narratives demonstrate, domestic violence was not at all unknown in the Middle Ages and represented a severe problem, which women could fight with only very limited resources because biblical teachings assigned absolute power to the father/husbandĬhristopher Kleinhenz and Marcia Colish, Series EditorsĮdited by Fannie LeMoine and Christopher KleinhenzĮssays on Women in Middle English LiteratureĮssays on Holy Mothers in the Middle Ages Many female writers addressed the problematic correlation of love with violence, specifically the physical violence that women faced at the hands of men, as witnessed by the twelfth-century troubairitz poetry, thirteenth and fourteenth century women's trouvere poetry, and by fifteenth and sixteenth century German women's love poetry. The collection focuses on the prevalence of what is now known as 'domestic violence' in the world of courtly literature. Although courtly literature is often associated with a chivalrous and idyllic life, the essays in this collection demonstrate that the quest for love in the world of medieval courtly literature was underpinned by violence - lovers were rejected, mistrust ruled, rape was a rampant problem, and marriage was often characterized by brutality. Not Even Wrong is a haunting journey into the borderlands of neurology - a meditation on what "normal" is, and how human genius comes to us in strange and wondrous forms.Violence in Courtly Medieval Culture explores the dark side of courtly literature. It is a story that reaches from a lonely clearing in the Black Forest into the London palace of King George I, from Defoe and Swift to the discovery of evolution from the modern dawn of the computer revolution to, in the end, the author's own household.
Examining forgotten geniuses and obscure medical archives, Collins's travels take him from an English churchyard to the Seattle labs of Microsoft, and from a Wisconsin prison cell block to the streets of Vienna. In Not Even Wrong, Paul Collins melds a memoir of his son's autism with a journey into this realm of permanent outsiders. He lives in a world of his own: an autistic world. A casual conversation-or any social interaction that the rest of us take for granted-will, for Morgan, always be a cryptogram that must be painstakingly decoded. "Collins elucidates, with great compassion, what it means to be 'normal' and what it means to be human." - Los Angeles Times When Paul Collins's son Morgan was two years old, he could read, spell, and perform multiplication tables in his head.but not answer to his own name.
