Cover text reads “Rhetoric and Resistance: The Literary Arts of Dissent in Nineteenth-Century Britain.” The pale blue cover is framed by intricate white floral/vine patterns that incorporate small placards and megaphones; a white raised fist sits near the bottom above the author’s name, Maeve Adams, in a rounded banner. The image appears on a dark blue to deep red gradient backdrop.
"Rhetoric and Resistance" (published by @ohiounivpress.bsky.social) is now on the path to #OpenAccess! This title is one of the many in our Path to Open program, which expands access to scholarship from trusted presses.

Black-and-white lithograph of a startled figure by an open window as a raven swoops in from a city sky; rough, dynamic strokes suggest wind and motion.
“Open here I flung the shutter.” 🐦⬛ 🕯️
Edouard Manet’s lithograph catches the instant Poe’s raven bursts into the room. Created for Stéphane Mallarmé’s French translation of the poem, it’s a powerful bridge between literature & image for teaching.

Black-and-white newspaper front page with an ornate Star of Hope masthead showing a waterfront vignette. The dateline reads “Vol. XI, Sing Sing Prison, Ossining, New York, November 20, 1909, No. 17.” A wide headline spans the page: “On the Football Gridiron at Franklin Field,” with a Thanksgiving-themed drop cap “T” illustrated as a turkey. Three dense columns of text follow, opening with “Thanksgiving Day! Hurrah!” in early 20th-century type.
Prison newspapers have offered people on the inside a way to report, reflect, and build community. @newyorkalmanack.bsky.social traces New York’s rich history of these papers, including Sing Sing’s "Star of Hope," and why the voices still matter today.
