Living With the Senecas: A Story About Mary Jemison
The novel, "Living with the Senecas: A Story about Mary Jemison", follows Mary Jemison's story from the time she is taken captive by Shawnees up through her death at age 80+ years old.
The book highlights the key events in Mary's life as she transitions from the 15 year-old girl raised in the "white man's world" to an adult that fully embraces the culture of the Senecas that adopted her.
The text is easy to read and very informative. The illustrations really give the reader an added sense of what Mary Jemison went through.

Tragic Seneca: An Essay in the Theatrical Tradition
15
 
 
Tragic Seneca: An Essay in the Theatrical TraditionTragic Seneca undertakes a radical re-evaluation of Seneca's plays, their relationship to Roman imperial culture and their instrumental role in the evolution of the European theatrical tradition. Following an introduction on the history of the Roman theatre, the book provides a dramatic and cultural critique of the whole of Seneca's corpus. Each play is examined in detail, locating the force of Senecan drama not only in the moral complexity of the texts and their representations of power, violence, history, suffering and the self, but the semiotic interplay of text, tradition and culture.
