Paperback. Condition: New. One of the most urgent tasks for gay studies today, James Creech argues, is the retrieval of a repressed, "closeted" literary heritage. But contradictions and problems cloud even the most basic theoretical questions: What does a lesbian or gay reading of a literary text require or presume? Can we talk about a homosexual writer expressing him- or herself before the invention of "homosexuality"? Was it possible for a writer like Herman Melville, for example, to create literary works linked to his own prohibited eros? In this book, Creech shows how a literary critic can be receptive to implicit and closeted sexual content. Advocating a tactic of identification and projection in literary analysis, he lends renewed currency to the kind of "sentimental" response to literature that continental theory - particularly deconstruction - has sought to discredit. In the second half of his book, Creech sets out to analyze what he considers the exemplary novel of the 19th-century closet, Melville's "Pierre; or, The Ambiguities".By approaching "Pierre" as the gay man Melville longed to have as its reader, Creech is able to decipher the novel's "encrypted erotics" and to reveal that Melville's apparent tale of incest is actually a homosexual novel in disguise.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating and complex world of insect population control, exploring a revolutionary approach that leverages the very adaptations insects have evolved to survive in different climates. The author examines the concept of "conditional lethal traits," genetic variations within insect species that are harmless in their natural environments but can become fatal under specific conditions. The book explores how these traits, often related to an insect's ability to enter diapause (a state of dormancy) or withstand cold temperatures, can be exploited to suppress or even eradicate pest populations. The author presents a detailed analysis of how these traits might be used in conjunction with other control methods, such as partial sterility, to achieve lasting and environmentally-friendly solutions to insect infestations. Through mathematical models and detailed examples, the book meticulously lays out the potential of this innovative strategy, offering a compelling case for its future application in insect control. The book's insights hold significant promise for developing more sustainable and effective methods to manage insect populations and protect crops and ecosystems. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
