With my eyes hurting from the strange light and anger in my voice, I assured him that I would. Suddenly I was pushed through the gate and the door was slammed behind me. After more than eight years, here I was, finally, out of jail . . . ." In this haunting account, Shahla Talebi remembers her years as a political prisoner in Iran. Talebi, along with her husband, was imprisoned for nearly a decade and tortured, first under the Shah and later by the Islamic Republic. Writing about her own suffering and survival and sharing the stories of her fellow inmates, she details the painful reality of prison life and offers an intimate look at a critical period of social and political transformation in Iran. Somehow through it all—through resistance and resolute hope, passion and creativity—Talebi shows how one survives. Reflecting now on experiences past, she stays true to her memories, honoring the love of her husband and friends lost in these events, to relate how people can hold to moments of love, resilience, and friendship over the dark forces of torture, violence, and hatred. At once deeply personal yet clearly political, part memoir and part meditation, this work brings to heartbreaking clarity how deeply rooted torture and violence can be in our society. More than a passing judgment of guilt on a monolithic "Islamic State," Talebi's writing asks us to reconsider our own responses to both contemporary debates of interrogation techniques and government responsibility and, more simply, to basic acts of cruelty in daily life. She offers a lasting call to us all. "The art of living in prison becomes possible through imagining life in the very presence of death and observing death in the very existence of life. It is living life so vitally and so fully that you are willing, if necessary, to let that very life go, as one would shed chains on the legs. It is embracing, and flying on the wings of death as though it is the bird of freedom."Women political prisonersIranBiographyPolitical persecutionIranHistoryIranPolitics and government1979-1997Women political prisonersPolitical persecutionHistory.365/.45092BTalebi Shahla1957-1469852Ardavān Sūdābah1469853MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910791995703321Ghosts of revolution3681444UNINA04008 am 22006613u 450 99658017120331620231121051245.01-4426-9960-41-4875-1816-11-4426-9959-0(CKB)3790000000538142(OAPEN)645367(DE-B1597)493868(OCoLC)1030817360(DE-B1597)9781442699595(MiAaPQ)EBC5171116(ScCtBLL)b71724ac-249f-41c6-bae8-f62385d727e8(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/31652(OCoLC)1325978921(MdBmJHUP)musev2_109083(EXLCZ)99379000000053814220190516d2018 fg enguuuuu---auuuutxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierMarking Time Romanticism and Evolution /Joel FaflakUniversity of Toronto Press2018Toronto : University of Toronto Press, [2018]©20171 online resource 1-4426-4430-3 Introduction.

Degeneration : inversions of teleology / Joan Steigerwald."Victorian studies scholars have long studied the impact of Charles Darwin's writings on nineteenth-century culture. However, few have ventured to examine the precursors to the ideas of Darwin and others in the Romantic period. 'Marking time', edited by Joel Faflak, analyses prevailing notions of evolution by tracing its origins to the literary, scientific, and philosophical discourses of the long nineteenth century. The volume's contributors revisit key developments in the history of evolution prior to 'On the origin of species' and explore British and European Romanticism's negotiation between the classic idea of a great immutable chain of being and modern notions of historical change. 'Marking time' reveals how Romantic and post-Romantic configurations of historical, socio-cultural, scientific, and philosophical transformation continue to exert a profound influence on critical and cultural thought."--The dustjacketEvolution (Biology) in literatureEvolution (Biology)PhilosophyLITERARY CRITICISM / Modern / 19th Century bisacshHistory.fastLiteratureCharles DarwinEvolutionFriedrich Wilhelm Joseph SchellingImmanuel KantJohann Wolfgang von GoetheThomas Robert MalthusEvolution (Biology) in literature.Evolution (Biology)Philosophy.LITERARY CRITICISM / Modern / 19th Century .809/.933609034Faflak Joelauth993147Faflak Joel, DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK996580171203316Marking Time3402627UNISA
