Interesting. Jacob Send a noteboard - 03/11/2009 04:29:43 PM
I'm working on a paper about the reactionary and conformistic nature of pornography. Books include:


Best of luck with the paper. It sounds like an interesting topic. I once wrote a paper that I called "The Renaissance Regression" that focused on the loss of options and more rigid definition of women and their roles in society during the early Ren.


And, if I have the time,

Drood, Dan Simmons

Strange Survivals: Some Chapters in the History of Man, S. Baring-Gould

mnem, Simon Stranger

Om Jesus (About Jesus), Jonas Gardell. Looks fun, a realistic archeological study of Jesus, not as an Aryan Super-Sayan Hippie, but as a toothless man suffering from malnutrition and looking like he's seventy.


I very much look forward to reading Drood sometime soon.

A Song for Arbonne was fantastic! ascott4321 - 17/11/2009 08:08:41 PM 658 Views
It's pretty difficult to top Tigana. Song is pretty good though. *NM* Jacob - 17/11/2009 08:24:21 PM 298 Views
I liked Song better than Tigana and thought Lions of Al-Rasan was better than both. *NM* Rebekah - 17/11/2009 08:36:17 PM 284 Views
