Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. "Theatre Arts Monthly" was, for years, one of the leading periodicals dealing with stage design and the problems of dramatic presentations. It was founded as "Theatre Arts Magazine" by Sheldon Warren Cheney, who was a leading author and drama critic. Eventually it's name was changed to "Theatre… Arts Monthly". It ran from 1916 to 1964. The magazine's editorial staff supported the Little Theatre Movement and the establishment of the American National Theatre and Academy. It was also very supportive of emerging dramatists and performing artists such as Martha Graham, Jo Mielziner, Eugene O'Neill, and Thorton wilder. It presented substantial articles devoted to all things theatre, but with an emphasis on production and theatre design. This August 1930 issue of "Theatre Arts Monthly" is superb for many reasons! It, as always has lots of wonderful photographs, illustrations, and articles. One of the plays discussed is Shakespeare's Othello", with Paul Robeson in the lead role, and there is a dramatic photograph of Robeson on stage. there is also a dramatic still of Sybil Thorndyke as Emilia and Peggy Ashcroft as Desdemona (this is especially attractive.) Rockwell Kent , the world famous artist and illustrator needs no introduction, but some may not now that he also did murals for public space. In this issue are two drawing that Kent did for the Cape Cinema at Dennis on Cape Cod. It's a spectacular creation; the reproductions are in monochrome (as are all the photographs in the magazine. Famous Ashcan School painter John Sloan is represented by four reproductions of paintings he did evoking ritual ceremonies of the Southwest, and the lights and excitement of a traveling carnival. Seventeenth Century artist and stage designer Inigo Jones is present with two designs he made for Carew's "Coelum Britannicum (1634), and the set for Scene 2 "the City Sleeps" in Sir William Davenant's "Luminalia"(1638). On the front cover we see that author J. B. Priestly is "Looking at the Theatre"; this combined with the articles (with photographs) about ancient Greek theatres makes for meaty and fascinating reading. As I have said . It's a wonderful issue!

Hardcover. Condizione: Very good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very good. xxvi, 531, [3] pages. Index of Authors. Index. DJ has slight wear and soiling and is in a plastic sleeve. An anthology of schemes, stories and ideas which people have dreamt of as Utopia. Provides a picture of the hopes and desires of the age in which each Ut…opia was conceived. The anthology encompasses many noble and selfless schemes but also reveals a trail of folly, tyranny and attempts at social control. John Carey, FBA, FRSL (born 5 April 1934) is a British literary critic, and post-retirement (2002) emeritus Merton Professor of English Literature at the University of Oxford. He is known for his anti-elitist views on high culture, as expounded in several books. He has twice chaired the Booker Prize committee, in 1982 and 2004, and chaired the judging panel for the first Man Booker International Prize in 2005. He is chief book reviewer for the London Sunday Times and appears in radio and TV programmes including Saturday Review and Newsnight Review. Carey's scholarly work is generally agreed to be of the highest order and greatly influential. Among these productions is his co-edition, with Alastair Fowler, of the Poems of John Milton; John Donne: Life, Mind, and Art, a revolutionary study of Donne's work in the light of his life and family history; and The Violent Effigy: A Study of Dickens's Imagination. Carey's critical works are all distinguished by his fearless acumen and brilliant wit, which have played their part in evoking a sometimes indignant response from other academics. He is known for his anti-elitist views on high culture, as expressed for example in his book What Good Are the Arts? Every age has its utopias, from Plato's Republic to contemporary sci-fi visions. In this spellbinding anthology John Carey charts the course of every conceivable dream world - whether communist, fascist, anarchist, green, golden age, techno-fantastic or hermaphroditic - combining a broad historical sweep with lively variety. An experienced and imaginative anthologist, editor of The Faber Book of Reportage and The Faber Book of Science, Carey has gathered together a vast range of texts from Ancient Egypt to modern California, the authors of which, in different ways, attempt to describe a better world than our own. A utopia typically describes an imaginary community or society that possesses highly desirable or nearly perfect qualities for its members. It was coined by Sir Thomas More for his 1516 book Utopia, describing a fictional island society in the New World. However, it may also denote an intentional community. In common parlance, the word or its adjectival form may be used synonymously with "impossible", "far-fetched" or "deluded". Hypothetical utopias focus onâ"amongst other thingsâ"equality, in such categories as economics, government and justice, with the method and structure of proposed implementation varying based on ideology. Lyman Tower Sargent argues that the nature of a utopia is inherently contradictory because societies are not homogeneous and have desires which conflict and therefore cannot simultaneously be satisfied. The opposite of a utopia is a dystopia or cacotopia. Utopian and dystopian fiction has become a popular literary category. Despite of common parlance, utopianism inspired and was inspired in some areas related to reality, such as architecture, file sharing, social networks, universal basic income, communes, open borders and even pirate bases. First Edition [Stated], First Printing [Stated]. Gary Isaacs (Cover photograph) and Sally Soames (A (illustratore).

Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. 1st Edition. Very Good, approaching Near Fine; see scans and description. Chicago: Educational Foundation for Nuclear Science, 1985. The November, 1985 issue of The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists. Anita Kunz cover art. The famous and historic Doomsday Clock - shown on each cover since 1947,…two years after the publication's inception - here shows the time to be just 3 minutes of midnight as of late 1985. That's about as close as it had been to that point. Quarto, illustrated staple-bound wraps, 57 pp. A stout Very Good; subscriber's label at front cover, faint age-toning at perimeter of the white covers; no other exterior flaws, and the interior is quite literally as new and immaculate. See scans. Firmly bound, contents bright, tipped-in cardstock offers remain untouched. A sturdy example; see all scans. Established in 1945 by biophysicist Eugene Rabinowitch and physicist Hyman Goldsmith in response to a correctly-perceived demand for nuclear information at the time by the general public, The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists is without doubt the most historically significant non-technical publication on the subject of "'global security and public policy issues related to the dangers posed by nuclear and other weapons of mass destruction, climate change,[2] and emerging technologies and diseases". Hence - a geopolitical instrument that became more than a nuclear watchdog. Feature articles in this now-vintage 1987 issue: U.S.-Soviet Summit (11th); Weapons Design Impedes Test Ban; Spent Nuclear Fuel and Waste; Gorbachev's Policy Innovations; Sea Provocations; Les Aspin; Pugwash Council . More, of course. A more-activist-than-average issue. Contributors include Harrison Brown (Editor); William M. Arkin; John Isaacs; Hugh E. DeWitt; Gerald E. Marsh; Coit D. Blacker; Archie Brown; Alan B. Sherr; Sidney N. Graybeal; Michael Krepon; Jack N. Barkenbus; Alvin M. Weinberg; Marcelo Alonso; William F. Lawless; Paul Good. Very scarce as the original monthly softcover issue. Ships in a new, sturdy, protective box - not a bag. LPR44.
