Are You Dancing?
From the mid-1950s to the mid-1970s, showbands were all the rage among Ireland's dancing audiences. Performing covers of rock 'n' roll and pop hits from American and British weekly Top 10 charts, they riveted their fans, dismayed many parish priests, and offered Irish youth a taste of modernism and pop culture from outside of Ireland. In Are You Dancing?, Rebecca S. Miller tells the story of how these working-class bands brought new sounds and choreographies to the Irish and Northern Irish pop landscape. Both as a response to and an agent in Ireland's changing economic landscape, showbands quickly grew into a hugely lucrative commercial industry. At the same time, they nudged open doors for ...
Beauty and the Beast
From fairy tales to photography, nowhere is the complexity of human-animal relationships more apparent than in the creative arts. Art illuminates the nature and significance of animals in modern, Western thought, capturing the complicated union that has long existed between the animal kingdom and us.

REDS
Reds is a story of the lives of five adolescent boys growing up in a small blue-collar town in America. A youngster named Reds assumes the role of their natural leader on the strength of his quiet but compelling personality. The narrative shapes the major issues of then and now around the lives of these boys as they grow up in a world devastated by the Great Depression and the Second World War. Economic divisions of rich and poor, insufferable racial discrimination, rejection of same-sex desires-these are some of the societal realities encountered by these youngsters who ostensibly want only to play baseball on their own neighborhood team. They do more than that, however, as their lives reflect many of the social challenges that remain with us today. As they grow into adulthood and inevitably to old age, they retain the lessons learned in childhood when they were not yet faced with the norms of social conformity which would rob them of their modest independence. Their otherwise unremarkable lives gain honor and dignity through the universal truths of their story.
