Acts of Intervention
Acts of Intervention traces the ways in which performance and theatre have participated in and informed the larger cultural politics of race, sexuality, citizenship and AIDS in the United States in the last fifteen years.
The Roman Forum
One of the most visited sites in Italy, the Roman Forum is also one of the best-known wonders of the Roman world. Though a highpoint on the tourist route around Rome, for many visitors the site can be a baffling disappointment. Several of the monuments turn out to be nineteenth- or twentieth-century reconstructions, while the rubble and the holes made by archaeologists have an unclear relationship to the standing remains, and, to all but the most skilled Romanists, the Forum is an unfortunate mess. David Watkin sheds completely new light on the Forum, examining the roles of the ancient remains while revealing what exactly the standing structures embody—including the rarely studied medieval, Renaissance, and Baroque churches, as well as the nearby monuments that have important histories of their own. Watkin asks the reader to look through the veneer of archaeology to rediscover the site as it was famous for centuries. This involves offering a remarkable and engaging new vision of a well-visited, if often misunderstood, wonder. It will be enjoyed by readers at home and serve as a guide in the Forum.

Life Does Not Come with Guarantees

It's Friday night, and Derek Collins has a slight problem, he's all out of weed. That's right the herb, the Ganja, Mary Jane, or good old fashioned grass.

What starts as simple lead to scoring spirals into an evening of debauchery, violence and so many WTF moments we couldn't even keep count (but honestly we didn't try). Derek will have to avoid the clutches of the sex-starved four hundred pound stripper. Assist a "street" Anthropologist with tagging and releasing Hipsters back into the wild. It's going to be a very long night as every turn brings him more and more trouble. From a cult with a fiendish surprise in their pants, to a deranged drag queen's "floor show". And even a kangaroo court where grammar is on trial, and punishable by death! All Derek wanted was an eighth, all he got were Despicable People.
