The Bog Body As Mnemotope: Nationalist Archaeologies In Heaney And Tournier, Anthony Purdy
The Bog Body As Mnemotope: Nationalist Archaeologies In Heaney And Tournier, Anthony Purdy
Anthony Purdy
The sometimes beautifully preserved Iron Age bodies that used to turn up from time to time in the peat-bogs of Northwestern Europe have moved and intrigued writers since P.V.

Boyd J Petersen
Like the Song of Songs, Terry Tempest Williams's Desert Quartet submerges its reader in a highly erotic landscape. And both use that landscape—a garden in the Song and a desert in Desert Quartet—to create eros in the text. Yet while the Song of Songs uses metaphor to transform the body of the beloved into a garden of delights, Desert Quartet uses personification to transform the desert landscape into a passionate lover.
