Question

In one novel, the protectress of a religious sect named after these things seemingly dies after seeing her reflection with poisonous letters inscribed into her eyelids. Priests and rabbis like Mokadassa al-Safer are defined as “Hunters” of these things in an entry of Milorad (15[1])Pavic’s (“PAH-veech”) Dictionary of the Khazars. (-5[1])The government institution Tabir Sarai catalogs these things in a novel in which the Ottoman Sultan forces Mark-Alem to work there. That anti-Hoxhaist (*) (“HOH-shah-ist”) Ismail Kadare (“kah-DAHR-ay”) novel is titled for a Palace of these things. (10[1])The Angel of the Agony tells Jesus to forgive the title character in a John Henry Newman poem titled for one of these things “of Gerontius,” (10[1])which Edward (10[1])Elgar adapted into an orchestral work. For 10 points, name these title things that are interpreted in a book by Sigmund Freud. ■END■
