Witness 2020 - Poems from the NC Poetry Society's Gilbert-Chappell Distinguished Poet Series
The Gilbert-Chappell Distinguished Poet Series supports the mission of the North Carolina Poetry Society to foster the reading, writing, and enjoyment of poetry across the state. Three Distinguished Poets from the east, central, and west of North Carolina will mentor each a middle-school, a high-school, a college or university student, and an adult within their respective regions. This year's participants poets Eastern Region: Distinguished Poet Anna Lena Phillips Bell, Kalaiya Corbin (high school) Raleigh; Jo Ann Hoffman (adult), Beaufort; Kelly Jones (adult), Tabor City; Leslie Sexton (adult), Winterville. Central Region: Distinguished Poet Dasan Ahanu; Hausson Byrd (college), Greensboro; Adeja Cheek (high school), Durham; Valerie Macon (adult), Fuquay-Varina; Jermaine Monroe (adult), Greensboro. Western Region: Distinguished Poet Ricardo Nazario y Col n, Jane Mary Curran (adult), Asheville. The GCDPS originated when the NCPS Board voted in 2003 to follow the advice of Fred Chappell, then North Carolina's Poet Laureate. He had written and advised the NCPS president about various approaches to take in furthering the NCPS mission of encouraging the reading, writing, and enjoyment of poetry. The GCDPS plans evolved from that correspondence and earlier discussions by Board members. The Gilbert-Chappell Distinguished Poet Series offers a way for poets to give back to the North Carolina poetry community. Past Gilbert-Chappell Distinguished Poets include Ann Deagon, Joseph Bathanti, John Hoppenthaler, Becky Gould Gibson, Lavonne Adams, and Catherine Carter, among others.

Medea (Translated with an Introduction and Annotations by Gilbert Murray)
The influence of Euripides on the development of the dramatic genre cannot be overstated. Along with Sophocles and Aeschylus he is regarded as one of the three great Greek tragedians from classical antiquity. One of the most important of Euripides' surviving dramas is "Medea", the story of its title character, the wife of Jason of the Argonauts, who seeks revenge upon her unfaithful husband when he abandons her for a another bride. Set in Corinth sometime after Jason's quest for the Golden Fleece, the play begins with Medea raging against her husband's plans to marry Glauce, daughter of Creon, King of Corinth. Jason tries to explain his intent to marry Glauce as an effort to improve his status and that afterwards he intends to unify the two families taking Medea as his mistress. Medea however is unconvinced and pursues a path of murderous revenge. The play is controversial for its depiction of Medea murdering her own children as part of her revenge. This depiction was unconventional and not well received with the contemporary Athenian audience who expected the more traditional depiction of Medea's children being killed by the Corinthians after her escape. Regardless of this unfavorable initial reaction, "Medea" has come to be regarded as one of the most important tragedies of classical antiquity. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper and is translated with an introduction and annotations by Gilbert Murray.
Poetics (Translated by Ingram Bywater with a Preface by Gilbert Murray)
Greek philosopher and scientist, Aristotle, lived in the 4th century B.C. and is thought of as one of the most important figures from classical antiquity. Aristotle was probably the most famous member of Plato's Academy in Athens, whose writings would ultimately form the first comprehensive system of Western philosophy. His writings were not constrained to simply one field of inquiry but covered such various subjects as physics, biology, metaphysics, logic, ethics, aesthetics, rhetoric, linguistics, politics and government. Contained in this volume is Aristotle's "Poetics" which is regarded as the world's first comprehensive treatise on literature. It is a detailed analysis of drama and poetry with its greatest emphasis on tragedy. Aristotle outlines the elements of good drama drawing upon specific examples from the literature of ancient Greece. Lost for a time to the Western world, "Poetics" was rediscovered in the late medieval and early renaissance period from Arabic sources. An essential read for any student of classical literature, Aristotle's "Poetics" provides great insight into the study of drama from the classical period. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper, is translated by Ingram Bywater, and includes a preface by Gilbert Murray.

Ghost Stories And Other Island Tales: A colonial officer in the Gilbert Islands

In the 1950s, Ian Butler abandoned a short-lived career in the chemical industry to serve as a colonial officer in the Gilbert and Ellice Islands, against the advice of his father who told him the British Empire was "going down the drain". This memoir is a collection of evocative and wittily told stories that provide an insider's view of the life of a colonial administrator in one of Her Majesty's most far flung colonies, and recall a period in British history that will soon fade from living memory. "a marvellously vivid depiction of the islands, their people, their setting and aspects of life of the expatriate officer" - David le Breton, Secretary, OSPA "Let us hope that there are other memoirs of Empire out there as good, and yet to be discovered" - Michael Walsh, Honorary UK Consul for Kiribati (1996-present)
