A deftly woven tenth collection from a respected poet with a rapidly ascending reputation.

Dakota half-breed Hannah Hops Along lives on the edge. She lives on the prairie's edge between the Badlands and the reservation. She lives at the edge of contemporary culture, fiercely protecting the ancient traditions of her tribe. And leapfrogging the edge of the new century, she jumps head long into the distant future that most will not know for decades. Able to share mind space with the planet Earth, Hannah finds herself exploring foreign territory. Though first tantalized by her adventure, she later loses her connection to home and fights for her life. Garnering her inner resources, Hannah must regain wholeness of mind, body and spirit in order to embrace life on Earth anew. "Away From Hannah's Castle offers a unique concept of our planet. Not a 'mother' Earth at all, terra firma is presented as a young woman needing human succor and protection." -B.K. Eagle, Dakota Tribal Member "Romance and adventure intertwine as Hannah Hops Along faces not only the challenges of a midlife romance, but also the journey of a lifetime as her mind struggles to grasp unexpected perceptions of Earth's intelligence." -D. Woodwell, Astrological Counselor

As we come closer to the return of our Lord Jesus Christ there is a yearning and a burning being released upon the earth. This yearning and burning is two-fold there is a yearning for the prosperity preaching of those who seek after the filthy lucre. But there is also a burning for the kingdom of God to begin to inhabit the earth through the power of unsuspecting and unknown individuals. Free of the bondage of religion and man’s opinion God is releasing the most powerful individuals of this season with the heaviest of burdens assigned to man. The church as we know it is in complete disarray. Leaders have become prideful, arrogant, and the sheep sit senselessly beaten into a state of disarray. It is through this fear and intimidation that gifts are being abused and they are being used out of order. Everyone is ministering for attention, engagements and money. Is this what Christ died for?

Responding to the increasingly influential role of Hannah Arendt’s political philosophy in recent years, Hannah Arendt and the Limits of Total Domination: The Holocaust, Plurality, and Resistance, critically engages with Arendt’s understanding of totalitarianism. According to Arendt, the main goal of totalitarianism was total domination; namely, the virtual eradication of human legality, morality, individuality, and plurality. This attempt, in her view, was most fully realized in the concentration camps, which served as the major "laboratories" for the regime. While Arendt focused on the perpetrators’ logic and drive, Michal Aharony examines the perspectives and experiences of the victims and their ability to resist such an experiment. The first book-length study to juxtapose Arendt’s concept of total domination with actual testimonies of Holocaust survivors, this book calls for methodological pluralism and the integration of the voices and narratives of the actors in the construction of political concepts and theoretical systems. To achieve this, Aharony engages with both well-known and non-canonical intellectuals and writers who survived Auschwitz and Buchenwald concentration camps. Additionally, she analyzes the oral testimonies of survivors who are largely unknown, drawing from interviews conducted in Israel and in the U.S., as well as from videotaped interviews from archives around the world. Revealing various manifestations of unarmed resistance in the camps, this study demonstrates the persistence of morality and free agency even under the most extreme and de-humanizing conditions, while cautiously suggesting that absolute domination is never as absolute as it claims or wishes to be. Scholars of political philosophy, political science, history, and Holocaust studies will find this an original and compelling book.

Historical novel detailing the continuing adventures of Hannah Rose, widow of the infamous Captain Ahab of "Moby Dick" fame. Second book of the series.

On July 28, 1797, an elderly Lenape woman stood before the newly appointed almsman of Pennsylvania’s Chester County and delivered a brief account of her life. In a sad irony, Hannah Freeman was establishing her residency—a claim that paved the way for her removal to the poorhouse. Ultimately, however, it meant the final removal from the ancestral land she had so tenaciously maintained. Thus was William Penn’s “peaceable kingdom” preserved. A Lenape among the Quakers reconstructs Hannah Freeman’s history, traveling from the days of her grandmothers before European settlement to the beginning of the nineteenth century. The story that emerges is one of persistence and resilience, as “Indian Hannah” negotiates life with the Quaker neighbors who employ her, entrust their children to her, seek out her healing skills, and, when she is weakened by sickness and age, care for her. And yet these are the same neighbors whose families have dispossessed hers. Fascinating in its own right, Hannah Freeman’s life is also remarkable for its unique view of a Native American woman in a colonial community during a time of dramatic transformation and upheaval. In particular it expands our understanding of colonial history and the Native experience that history often renders silent.
