Jane and Sarah team up to help each other through the challenges they face to keep their babies after they have been brutally beaten by their boyfriends. Being young, homeless, and penniless, Sarah goes into a shelter for abused women. While Jane, a minor, chooses to go back to her mother’s home. Her mother had kicked her out of the house a year before. Strange unexplainable things begin to happen around Jane which makes her question her own sanity. She is scared to tell Sarah because without her support and friendship, she doesn’t think she can stand up to her mother’s demand that she gives her baby up for adoption. Jane receives a government letter after they had sent for birth certificates saying that there is no record of a Mrs. Helen Evans giving birth to Jane. This starts them searching for the birth certificate she had to go to Disneyland when she was younger.. The search leads them step by step closer to the discovery of a family secret. A secret so big that people have committed murder for it and almost kills Jane and her baby for it. A secret so big that it changes the girl’s lives forever.

A Cultural History of the Arabic Language

By: Sharron Gu

This history of literary Arabic describes the evolution of Arabic poetry and prose in the context of music, ritual performance, the arts and architecture. The thousands-of-years-old language is perhaps more highly developed and refined than any other on earth. This book focuses on what is unique about Arabic compared to other major languages of the world (Greek, Latin, Hebrew, English and Spanish) and how the distinct characteristics of Arabic took shape at various points in its history. The book provides a cultural background for understanding social and political institutions and religious beliefs--more influenced by the rhythms and depths of poetic language than other cultures--in the Middle East today.

Law and Politics in Modern China

Under the Law, the Law, and Above the Law

By: Sharron Gu

This is an original interdisciplinary study of Chinese law, its language, and political institution. Evolving within a complex literary framework over thousands of years, Chinese language has lost its conceptual distinctiveness to its multilevel and overlapping meanings and connotations. Chinese law has become inflated with contrary rulings and exceptions. This mass of rules requires an extra-lingual (legal) authority to redefine boundaries and specify applications. This book follows and continues the author's, The Boundaries of Meaning and the Formation of Law (McGill University Press) by illustrating how language shapes the formation, application, and administration of law in various cultural environments. Law and Politics in Modern China is an important book for those interested in Chinese history, culture, law, and politics. It also provides refreshing insights about the way that law continues to function after its language matures and creates contradictions and loopholes within its system of rules--one of the most important issues facing Western legal administration in the immediate future.

The Boundaries of Meaning and the Formation of Law

Legal Concepts and Reasoning in the English, Arabic, and Chinese Traditions

By: Sharron Gu

Gu's original perspective on legal history challenges established theories of law based on political science, sociology, and philosophy. She argues that language at a specific time and place determines how the law works in each culture. As each language accumulates too many meanings and connotations, the law becomes inflated by rulings, interpretations, and codified cases that overlap and contradict one another.

Language and Culture in the Growth of Imperialism

By: Sharron Gu

Political science interpretations of international relations tend to focus on abstract terms of economic interest, domination, rights and justice. Trapped within this limited horizon, the discipline fails to explain why nations of similar economic structure would have variant ideas for their foreign policies, and why nations with different economic structures and ideologies could develop a similar global posture during certain periods of their histories. This innovative study examines imperialism from a cultural and linguistic perspective, portraying the rise and fall of ancient Greek, Roman, medieval Islamic, modern British, Russian and American empires as a part of the natural life of world civilizations. As these imperial cultures matured through centuries of literary accumulation and interaction with other cultures, they finally found their confidence on the world stage and transitioned from an aggressive policy towards others to a more tolerant one.
