![]() ![]() ![]() It has become more and more clear to me from my work with Blixen’s works in relation to Kierkegaard that one of Blixen’s ways of becoming a part of world literature was to deliberately deal with it in her works and for the most part in a subversive way. The three articles are framed by a background section that consists of 1) a research survey of the Blixen-Kierkegaard research scholarship, 2) reflections over the theory and method used in each of the three articles and 3) additional analyses of selected tales by Blixen with particular attention to Kierkegaard and the topics of gender and Christianity and finally 4) a concluding chapter that ties the observations from the articles and the background section together. Karen Blixen’s ‘Carnival’ in the Light of Søren Kierkegaard” has been published in the journal Scandinavica (2:2011), the second “‘Ehrengard,’ Kierkegaard, and the Secret Note” has been accepted by the journal Scandinavian Studies and is scheduled to appear in the winter 2013 issue and the third “Karen Blixen’s ‘The Poet’ and Søren Kierkegaard’s Gjentagelsen” has been submitted to the European Journal of Scandinavian Studies but has not yet been peer reviewed.

Especially in a novella, it can feel rehashed or the plot can be weak and I end up feeling taken. I’m usually very cautious when an author decides to revisit a couple who have had their romance established and pretty much resolved in a previous book. ![]() Tethered: The Further Adventures of Archimedes Fox and Captain Corsair ( Iron Seas #2.5 ) by Meljean Brook (Berkeley, April 2, 2013) ![]() ![]() This is our fourth breakup in three years.

I never wanted to be one of those girls who breaks up and makes up with the same guy over and over again. Stellar boyfriend doesn’t quite make his list of strengths either, at least not in recent days. Like baseball-seriously, the guy can pull stats out of his ass, even ones dating back to the sixties. And I doubt autocorrect is to blame because Sean isn’t exactly the brightest crayon in the box. And although the emotional progression from pleading to pissed off doesn’t go unnoticed, I find myself fixating on his grammatical error. ![]() They’re all from Sean, my as-of-last-night ex. ![]() There are six text messages waiting for me when I check my phone on the way out of the campus fitness center on Friday night.
