Losing My Marbles

Losing My Marbles

Trader Faulkner

Oberon Modern Plays
2003
nidottu
Losing My Marbles is a series of hilarious true stories from Trader Faulkner's varied life, describing his extraordinary encounters with Laurence Olivier, John Gielgud and Vivien Leigh, his involvements with the tearaway, womanising Peter Finch, his poignant meeting with Picasso and his unforgettable appearance on stage with the great flamenco dancer Antonio. 'Losing My Marbles is a series of true stories. These are events in my life wherein the heartache, error and folly of my youth are transformed into comedy and tragedy, if you can call the heartbreak of youthful idealism tragedy! The result has become an evening in the theatre where people can forget their troubles and laugh at mine. Marbles can be played anywhere there is an audience who like a good story, and there are many more from my picaresque life yet to be told.' Trader Faulkner

Dusty Rainbolt

Yard Dog Press

Chandra was having a bad day anyway, but then that cat..."Starts with a galactic Ma Bell and the equivalent of the Wichita Lineman on the run from thugs demanding an object Chandra's never even heard of, then throw in space pirates who steal party supplies, a cat who's even more a law unto himself than most felines, and oddball planets where the inhabitants have deified Fifties TV sitcom characters or the drunks in the gutter at night are lawyers in court by day. It all adds to make All the Marbles a highly entertaining ride." - Lee Killough, author of Wilding Nights"If you've missed Douglas Adams, you'll laugh with relief when you read All the Marbles." - Selina Rosen, author of Queen of Denial and Recycled"Rainbolt taps into the heart of science fiction; all that can be imagined is possible. All the Marbles is fast-paced, outrageous, and of a cosmic scale. Rainbolt will take you on a trip far from home, a trip well worth taking." - Gary Moreau, author of Almost Human"Crossing screwball comedy with space opera, Dusty Rainbolt's All The Marbles is a fast, funny take on far-future shenanigans and some eternal verities, like corporate monopolies and human idiocy. Readers will love this wild space chase after a mysteriously valuable object through galaxies far, far away with spunky heroine Chandra Solomon, a large cast of oddballs along for the ride, and Ivan the topdog cat." - Carole Nelson Douglas, author of Cat in a Neon Nightmare

A Path Through Red Maples

Innen Ray Parchelo

A Path Through Red Maples follows the emergence and growth in Canada of Tendai-shu, a newly-arrived Buddhist tradition in 2010. Rather than a once-removed historical summary, the book uses the talks, articles and presentations that appeared 2005 and 2018 as part of the formative activities of the Red Maple Sangha in Eastern Ontario, north-west of Ottawa. between 2002-2010. Then, it shows how the group transformed into The Red Maple Tendai Sangha (RMTS), through an established relationship with international Tendai and the Tendai Buddhist Institute in the USA.We focus on several facets of these events in the form of: - an introduction to Japanese Buddhism;- a brief Introduction to Tendai-shu;- works delivered directly to the Red Maple Tendai Sangha;- presentations to the wider public across Eastern Ontario;- applications to professional therapeutic practice; and- reading lists.The RMTS has always been an active literary community, using live talks, seminars and podcasts to provide a wide range of learning opportunities for its members. What appears here represents about half of what was generated in these years. Part of our teaching approach at RMTS has been to encourage sangha members and friends to share their views as well. Therefore, several of these inclusions are co-authored with other contributors.

The Parthenon Marbles and International Law

The Parthenon Marbles and International Law

Catharine Titi

Springer International Publishing AG
2023
sidottu
The Parthenon marbles case is the most famous international cultural heritage dispute concerning repatriation of looted antiquities, the Parthenon marbles in the British Museum’s ‘Elgin Collection’. The case has polarised observers ever since Elgin had the marbles hacked out of the ancient temple at the turn of the 19th century in Ottoman-occupied Athens. In 1816, a debt-stricken Elgin sold the marbles to the British government, which subsequently entrusted them to the British Museum, where they have remained since then. Much ink has been spilled on the Parthenon marbles. The ethical and cultural merits of their repatriation have been fiercely debated for years. But what has generally not been considered are the legal merits of their return in light of contemporary international law. This book is the first in legal scholarship to provide an international law perspective of the cause célèbre of international cultural heritage disputes and, in doing so, toclarify the new customary international law on the return of cultural property unlawfully removed from its original context. The book, which includes a foreword by Andrew Wallace-Hadrill, is a unique reference work on the legal case for the return of the Parthenon marbles and the new normative framework for the protection of cultural heritage.
