Dean Blunt is the most important British artist of the current century because he fundamentally does not care about Britain. His importance makes it shocking that such little critical attention has been paid to his work. His indifference explains it. Dhanveer Singh Brar’s Beefy’s Tune (Dean Blunt Edit) looks to initiate a conversation that needs to be had about Dean Blunt, about Britain (through Blunt’s indifference to it), and about Blackness in Britain (through the depth and complexity of Blunt’s feeling for it). Using the 2016 album ‘BBF Hosted By DJ Escrow’ as a means of navigation, Brar hears Blunt in order to access the long contested dream of Britain’s disappearance that was conducted under the name of Black British Arts. Partial (in the sense of his relation to Blunt) and partial (in the sense of unfinished), Beefy’s Tune (Dean Blunt Edit) see’s Dhanveer Singh Brar give the dream a grammar, if not a name.

This volume completes the edition of the two earliest manuscript Chapter Act books of Westminster Abbey, which is now the first cathedral or collegiate church to have all its Chapter Acts fully in print from the Reformation to theCivil War. It records the formal decisions of the Abbey's governing authority, many involving grants of office and leases of the Abbey's large and widely-scattered estate, principally in the midlands and the south-east, and especially in Westminster itself. A full introduction brings out the value of the documents in placing the Abbey in the tumultuous history of the church under James I and Charles I.
In this fascinating book Arthur Peacocke shares with his readers a short autobiographical portrait of his life and his reflections on Christian faith and practice, based on addresses he has given. In a final section, he explores the implications for Christian belief of the scientific world view. He embraces the paradox of the Christian tradition as a simultaneous respect for what has been handed on to us and a critical revising, enriching and amplifying of it in the light of science under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. The Reverend Canon Arthur Peacocke, MBE, DD, DSC, sosc, for twenty-five years, pursued an academic scientific career in the Universities of Birmingham and Oxford in the field of physical biochemistry (especially concerned with DNA). After ordination in 1971 as a priest-scientist while a Fellow of St Peter's College, Oxford, he subsequently became Dean of Clare College, Cambridge, during which time he gave the Bampton Lectures in Oxford (published in 1979 as Creation and the World of Science). He returned to Oxford in 1984 as Director of the Ian Ramsey Centre, Oxford, until 1988, (a post he resumed in 1995), and gave the Gifford Lectures at St Andrews in 1993, which are included in his Theology for a Scientific Age (2nd enlarged edition, for which he received an international Templeton prize). He started the Science and Religion Forum in 1972 and was the first Warden of the Society of Ordained Scientists from 1987 to 1992. He is an Honorary Canon of Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford. Dr Peacocke is the author of, and a contributor to, many books and papers on theology and science.

"Trevor's advice to me as a young student in a rapidly changing world was delivered in a clear and friendly manner along with an obvious depth of experience, knowledge and empathy. That advice has resonated with me over the years and guided my decisions at key points in my own career. I commend this book to students of today -- and tomorrow. " Professor Nigel Perkins, Head of School and Dean, School of Veterinary Science, The University of Queensland. Trevor Heath has spent more than 60 years as a student, teacher, supervisor, mentor, researcher, and Dean at 8 universities across Australia and the US. His passion for helping students led to this inspiring, helpful and unique book. Written in the form of letters, Trevor sets out practical and thoughtful tips to help young students make the transition to higher study, then navigate successfully through their studies and onto the workforce. Trevor describes the letters as 'grist for the cerebral mill' -- providing a basis for reflection and consideration. They are guided by the principle that a small amount of help at a critical point in a young person's life can have an effect out of proportion to the time and effort involved. Encouraging oneself to work towards a solution that works for them, to develop the wit and the will to solve problems, helps you to achieve objectives in your studies, profession and life. The letters are arranged in a time-based sequence, starting with entering university and ending in the workplace and beyond, although there are some detours relevant to life in general. The letters can be read however in any sequence and readers are encouraged to dip into the book at any point, without having read previous letters. This book is an invaluable addition to the library of any student starting out in higher education.

Prose Poetry collection by Allison A. deFreese. Based in the Pacific Northwest, Allison deFreese coordinates multi-language literary translation workshops for the Oregon Society of Translators and Interpreters. Her work appears in Fireweed: Poetry of Oregon, Hunger Mountain, La Piccioletta Barca, Plainsongs, and Waxwing. Her chapbook Nurdles and Other Poems is forthcoming late 2022.From the very first line of these collected prose poems, Allison deFreese invites us into a world that often feels just beyond what's possible, a world with her stunning writing as our guide, a world freshly familiar and deeply human. The writing - word for word - is a collaboration with the reader, clear-eyed and drawing us in gently. Once there, we are giddily transported and finally grateful for the mysteries that linger from poem to poem. This collection is sensual, sly, funny, full of yearning and its brevity is breathtakingly beautiful. -- James Still, playwright/author of Dinosaur(s); And Then They Came for Me: Remembering the World of Anne Frank, and The Velocity of Gary.Allison A. deFreese's poems not only erase barriers between poetry and prose, they also blur the boundaries between ourselves and the Other: be it a piglet about to freeze, a hummingbird, or our own ghosts. Using language that appeals to the five senses, deFreese brings us closer to the world around us, as if we were seeing it for the first time. Her poems lay bare our shared path, as well as the fine ties binding our existence with that of other beings.-- Nidia Cuan, author of Las Carta Las cartas que no le (The Letters I Never Read) and Se as particulares (Identifying Features)Repeatedly, in The Night with James Dean and Other Prose Poems, we encounter whimsy made believable, as in the opening vignette, featuring the narrator as the cake at a catfish wedding. In this remarkable little collection, what can't happen does happen. Allison deFreese makes it real: "Rose stems or roman rockets drop like cigar ends, while birds flash silver against a stormy sky and time escapes in the large stack of halved oranges, their pulp pale now as the feeble breeze." Elsewhere, deFreese reflects on the unlikely miracle of being here at all. "Bacon," marvels at the revival of a newborn piglet discovered near frozen in snow. And consider this passage about the role of chance in anyone's arrival on the planet: "Heredity, then, the riches of blooming or booming when odds were you would never be planted, a final sneeze and the night of your conception dissolves in air, an aspirin in water." Immerse yourself in these pages-one marvel and then another.--David Meischen, author of Anyone's Son, selected Best First Book of Poetry by the Texas Institute of Letters

Michael Shinagel's inspiring memoir, Holocaust Survivor to Harvard Dean, traces the highlights of his remarkable career from childhood in Vienna, Austria, to his family's terrifying exodus from Hitler's Europe (19381941), refugee life and public school education in New York City (19411951), a false start in agriculture at Cornell University (19511952), service with the US Army in Korea (19521954), college on the G. I. Bill at Oberlin (19541957), doctoral studies on a national fellowship and academic administration at Harvard University (19571964), and a fifty-year academic career of teaching and administration at Cornell University (19641967), Union College (19671975), and Harvard University (19752013).At his retirement in 2013, he was acclaimed as the longest-serving dean in Harvard history and as one of the transformative leaders of the university.
