During a conversation with Ward Morehouse in 1930, Eugene O’Neill stated, “I’m interested in trying to do better things,” and his plays are a testimony to his continued search for new dramatic strategies. Analyzing a range of O’Neill’s plays, this book explores the Nobel Prize winner’s attempts at creating a new Modern play??particularly through his staging of alienation, depictions of kissing and fighting bodies, unusual uses of acoustics, and the creation of tragedy through the chorus, silence or immobility.
Eugene O'Neill lived with the artist George Bellows for a short time in the first decade of the twentieth century. He also met Robert Henri, the leader of what later became known as the Ashcan School, and John Sloan, who etched O'Neill at the Lincoln Arcade studio on Upper Broadway. These visual artists made a profound impression on the future playwright, and when O'Neill began writing plays in 1913, he drew upon the images he had first seen on canvas or paper. This book presents the centrality of New York City on Eugene O'Neill's imagination--the notorious Tenderloin section, Greenwich Village, the Lower East Side, Fifth Avenue, and Gramercy Park--and it does so through the brushes, pens, plates, and stones of the Ashcan artists. The sixty images herein reveal the shared aesthetic sensibilities between all the respective artists and foreground the honest, unflinching, and simple beauty that O'Neill sought to portray in all of his dramatic works: from the early one-acts with the Provincetown Players, to the Broadway blockbusters in the 1920s, and culminating with the posthumously-produced plays he wrote in near seclusion to conclude his career.

For two decades, Eugene Kennedy was one of the church's fiercest critics in the sexual abuse crisis, with frequent articles in National Catholic Reporter. This book--written as an appreciation by one of Kennedy's former students at Loyola University of Chicago--recalls and assesses his huge literary output throughout fifty years of active research and writing. Kennedy's entire career can be seen as an extension of Vatican II. Topics in the tremendous arc of his career include a career-starting book on improving seminaries, inspiring books about faith in the twentieth century, leadership in the 1972 study by United States Catholic bishops, books on how to do counseling at the parish level, ongoing reviews of how the church put Vatican II in motion, and his last book, which is a gentle collection of blogs as he fondly reminisced about his life. In the middle of all this, he was a successful novelist and political commentator whose editor was Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. And much, much more. ""Eugene Kennedy lived a life that mirrored the great change in the Catholic church in the twentieth century: at various times a psychologist, author, and activist, sometimes all three. His rich and varied life is beautifully recounted in this new book--the first biography of Kennedy, and a worthy one, of this important and inspiring Catholic layman."" --James Martin, SJ, author of Jesus: A Pilgrimage ""With skill and passion, Eugene Kennedy penned insight and reason to countless issues of our time. He gave us a view of truth and a glimpse of his good soul."" --Kenneth Velo, Senior Executive of Catholic Collaboration at DePaul University ""This book is a concise and compellingly tribute to a man whose contributions changed understandings about what it means to be a Catholic priest, a counselor, and a human being. Eugene Kennedy will appeal to a wide audience as it captures the multifaceted and vibrant life of a scholar of the mind and spirit whose writings and interests transcended academic disciplines, political labels, and faith traditions. As a former student of Kennedy, I was riveted by Van Ornum's rich and incisive compendium of our mentor's paradigm-shifting work."" --Arthur J. Lurigio, Dean and Professor of Psychology at Loyola University Chicago ""Eugene Kennedy lived a life that mirrored the great change in the Catholic church in the 20th century: at various times a psychologist, author and activist, sometimes all three. His rich and varied life is beautifully recounted in this new book--the first biography of Kennedy, and a worthy one, of this important and inspiring Catholic layman."" --James Martin, Author of Jesus: A Pilgrimage William Van Ornum is professor of psychology at Marist College in Poughkeepsie, New York. He has written A Thousand Frightening Fantasies: Understanding and Treating Scrupulosity and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (1997), which includes an introduction by John Cardinal O'Connor of New York. He is the author, coauthor, or general editor for over thirty books, many of them on the relationship between psychology and spirituality.
