College Latin
By providing a much-needed grammar review, along with a variety of readings that will suit the tastes of many different teaching preferences, this textbook will help students make the transition from beginning Latin to the intermediate level. The book is filled with exercises and a balance of prose and verse readings organized around five topics. After using College Latin, students will be reacquainted with all the major Latin grammar and able to hold their own in the “authors courses” that make up most intermediate Latin curriculums.
Influence
Through his practice Edmond and Corrigan, established with partner Maggie Corrigan in Melbourne in the 1970s, and nearly four decades of teaching at RMIT University, Peter Corrigan (1941-2016) shaped both the architectural fabric of his home city and the minds of several generations of Australian architects.Corrigan's philosophy of "living a life through architecture" saw him tirelessly engage in teaching, writing, exhibitions, publishing, building and theatre, all of which was interwoven in a deliberate contribution of ideas. This book documents and celebrates that contribution and its cultural legacy. It draws together essays by current and former RMIT Architecture staff and students, as well as the wider community of practice, that explore the influence of Edmond and Corrigan on their work.These are leavened with a rich trove of previously unpublished correspondence, drawings and other material from the RMIT Design Archives, to trace the dense web of social relations and relentless creative production that saw Corrigan become such an influential cultural force in Australia, and most especially Melbourne.
A Student Handbook of Greek and English Grammar
The study of classical languages by earlier generations of English-speaking students was greatly facilitated by the study of English grammar in the schools, a tradition now out of favor but one that emphasized precisely the concepts, terms, and constructions needed for the study of Greek and Latin. Recent classical language textbooks, while presuming little or no grammatical sophistication on the part of their students, often provide little more by way of remediation than definitions of grammatical terminology. A Student Handbook of Greek and English Grammar offers a student-friendly comparative exposition of English and ancient Greek grammatical principles that will prove a valuable supplement to a wide range of beginning Greek textbooks as well as a handy reference for those continuing on to upper-level courses.
Censorship
Censorship: A World Encyclopedia presents a comprehensive view of censorship, from Ancient Egypt to those modern societies that claim to have abolished the practice. For each country in the world, the history of censorship is described and placed in context, and the media censored are examined: art, cyberspace, literature, music, the press, popular culture, radio, television, and the theatre, not to mention the censorship of language, the most fundamental censorship of all. Also included are surveys of major controversies and chronicles of resistance. Censorship will be an essential reference work for students of the many subjects touched by censorship and for all those who are interested in the history of and contemporary fate of freedom of expression.
The European Union, Antisemitism, and the Politics of Denial
Copublished with the Vidal Sassoon International Center for the Study of Antisemitism, this study asks if the European Union (EU) has the capacity or the will to counter antisemitism. The desire to counter antisemitism was a significant impetus toward the formation of the EU in the twentieth century and now prejudice against Jews threatens to subvert that goal in the twenty-first. The European Union, Antisemitism, and the Politics of Denial offers an overview of the circumstances that obliged European political institutions to take action against antisemitism and considers the effectiveness of these interventions by considering two seemingly dissimilar EU states, Austria and Sweden. This exa...
Leave Me Alone, I'm Reading
In this delightful memoir, the book critic for NPR’s Fresh Air reflects on her life as a professional reader. Maureen Corrigan takes us from her unpretentious girlhood in working-class Queens, to her bemused years in an Ivy League Ph.D. program, from the whirl of falling in love and marrying (a fellow bookworm, of course), to the ordeal of adopting a baby overseas, always with a book at her side. Along the way, she reveals which books and authors have shaped her own life—from classic works of English literature to hard-boiled detective novels, and everything in between. And in her explorations of the heroes and heroines throughout literary history, Corrigan’s love for a good story shines.
