The things that torment me are that evil people exist and enjoy tormenting others. That’s what I’ve got to deal with, or I’m going to kill myself. Hopefully I won’t take another Hemingway exit. So I’ve got to overcome my ten-year torment by writing. I’ve got to get it out of my system. I’ve got to write and then push it into the courthouse. Got to write! Go bang with public justice, not a gun! Danny Roarke narrates his story about dating women from all zodiac signs to find Ms. Right, several weddings destroyed, his time in a mental hospital, and his struggles with malignant female colleagues as a professor at Palm City University. Danny feels the university women aim to destroy him after his favorite colleague who appealed her tenure denial to become the only faculty member to ever win appeal left PCU. He tries to keep a sense of humor about his struggles, especially after his fiancée trashes his house, but also considers the benefits of his Glock handgun. Intermeshed within his diatribe are photos of Danny’s artfully amusing pottery series, “Just Do Me.” To survive, Danny must confront his tormenting relationships with women and master his desire to be an authentic artist.
In 1749, George Washington, age 17, was commissioned to survey and plot the town and county of Culpeper. He recorded that the town occupied a high and pleasant situation. Incorporated in 1834, Culpeper prospered as a major trading and shipping point with the opening of a stagecoach route. The arrival of the railroad in 1853 spurred even more economic development and made Culpeper a strategic supply station for Confederate and Union troops. Occupied by both armies throughout the war, the Culpeper area witnessed more than 100 battles and skirmishes and received many Confederate and Union generals. Military headquarters were established here, with officers lodged in hotels and dining and entertaining downtown. Much of downtown Culpeper was built following the Civil War. The architectural character today reflects the 1888 building boom of High Victorian and Italianate styles.

The nineteenth century witnessed rapid economic and social developments, profound political and intellectual upheaval, and startling innovations in art and literature. As Europeans peered into an uncertain future, they drew upon the Renaissance for meaning, precedents, and identity. Many claimed to find inspiration or models in the Renaissance, but as we move across the continent's borders and through the century's decades, we find that the Renaissance was many different things to many different people. This collection brings together the work of sixteen authors who examine the many Renaissances conceived by European novelists and poets, artists and composers, architects and city planners, political theorists and politicians, businessmen and advertisers. The essays fall into three groups: "Aesthetic Recoveries of Strategic Pasts"; "The Renaissance in Nineteenth-Century Culture Wars"; and "Material Culture and Manufactured Memories.
This book provides the first systematic analysis of the role of exiles in the political life of fifteenth-century Italy. It also provides fresh perspectives on the nature and power of governments during this period, and on ideas about the legitimacy of political authority and political action.
