Marcus Aurelius lived from AD 26 April 121 until 17 March 180 and was Roman Emperor from AD 161 to 180. This book is an accompaniment to the podcast "The Golden Book of Marcus Aurelius" which you can find on iTunes or at www.themapodcast.wordpress.com. It contains links to audio recordings of the Golden Book, links to contemporary maps and many other interesting links and facts about Marcus. Marcus was the last of the so called "five good emperors". He came from a wealthy family, who had grown rich from their family brick-works during the time of the Emperor Hadrian (of wall-building fame). Hadrian was aware of, and fond of Marcus as a boy, and interceded in his educational arrangements, sponsoring him - and putting him on what could be regarded as an inevitable path to public office. As part of his education he was trained by several of the brightest minds of his time, but he was particularly struck by the teachings of the stoic philosophers and aspects of the philosophy related to duty.

Arguing for a reconsideration of William Butler Yeats’s work in the light of contemporary studies of world literature, Barry Sheils shows how reading Yeats enables a fuller understanding of the relationship between the extensive map of world literary production and the intensities of poetic practice. Yeats’s appropriation of Japanese Noh theatre, his promotion of translations of Rabindranath Tagore and Shri Purohit Swãmi, and his repeated ventures into American culture signalled his commitment to moving beyond Europe for his literary reference points. Sheils suggests that a reexamination of the transnational character of Yeats's work provides an opportunity to reflect critically on the cosmopolitan assumptions of world literature, as well as on the politics of modernist translation. Through a series of close and contextual readings, the book demonstrates how continuing global debates around the crises of economic liberalism and democracy, fanaticism, asymmetric violence, and bioethics were reflected in the poet's formal and linguistic concerns. Challenging orthodox readings of Yeats as a late-romantic nationalist, W.B. Yeats and World Literature: The Subject of Poetry makes a compelling case for reading Yeats’s work in the context of its global modernity.

BARRY & THE BIMBO is an original romantic/action/comedy screenplay by Michael B. Druxman.Barry is a young, somewhat naive, aspiring screenwriter, who has got the "hots" for Dawn. She's the cute blonde who lives upstairs and who runs around with a nasty guy involved in the local rackets. When the mob "hits" Dawn's fella, she and Barry become the cops' chief suspects. Then, when they're kidnapped out of a police car by some hoods and both officers are killed, the unlikely couple find themselves on the run...with the law, the mob and an important politician on their tail. It seems that everybody thinks that Dawn has her dead boy friend's secret diary, a little journal can put a lot of people into jail. Events reach a spectacular climax near the historic town of Angels Camp, with the lead heavy pursuing Barry and Dawn in a roller coaster chase on rafts down the American River.
