    Bridges: A Jewish Feminist Journal: 21st Anniversary Issue Bridges: A Jewish Feminist Journal. 21st Anniversary Issue: Conversations on Creativity, Activism, and Jewish Feminist Identity. Ed. Clare Kinberg. Volume 16: 1 (Spring 2011). Reviewed by Evelyn Torton Beck, Women’s Studies Professor Emerita, University of Maryland, College Park, USA Even more than I had anticipated, reading and rereading this 240 page volume of Bridges (possibly the last print copy of the journal) was not only a pleasure, but a deeply satisfying experience; unique in its format, it is among the best that Bridges has produced in its twenty one years of publication. The issue is constructed around a series of conversations between previous contributors to the journal. While some contributors deliberately chose partners they knew personally or with whose work they were familiar, others were paired by the editor; but however they ended up together, the pairings worked well. Conveying the richness, honesty, and spontaneity of these conversations (whose themes overlap and intertwine) proved to be a challenge. How was I to convey the depth and complexity of these thirty- five separate essays (and twice that many voices), which continued to speak long after I had closed the volume? Not surprisingly, these exchanges combine the personal with the political, the particular with the universal. The conversation partners include poets, novelists and visual artists; rabbis, modern orthodox, secular and atheist; academics and community workers; young and old; Jews by choice and born Jews; Sephardic and Ashkenazi, Caucasians and African-Americans; lesbian, heterosexual and queer Jews; able-bodied and physically challenged, reaching across multiple lines of linguistic, geographic, ethnic and racial differences.

Read Together celebrates five years of success and is revered as the leading community read program in Oregon. Much of our success is due to the thousands of Deschutes County residents who embrace the program and participate actively in its free cultural events and author visits every year. Through A Novel Idea, we’ve trekked across the rivers and streams of Oregon with David James Duncan’s classic The River Why, journeyed to the barren and heart-breaking lands of Afghanistan through Khaled Hosseini’s The Kite Runner, trucked our way through America and Mexico with María Amparo Escandón’s González and Daughter Trucking Co., and relived the great days of Bill Bowerman’s Oregon with Kenny Moore’s book Bowerman and the Men of Oregon. This year, we enter The World to Come with award-winning author Dara Horn and are enchanted by this extraordinary tale of mystery, folklore, theology, and history. A month-long series of events kicks off on Saturday, April 1 26 with the Obsidian Opera performing songs from Fiddler on the Roof. More than 20 programs highlight this year’s book at the public libraries in Deschutes County including: Russian Jewish immigrant experience in Oregon, the artist Marc Chagall, Jewish baking, Judaism 101, art workshops, a Synagogue tour, and book discussions—all inspired from the book’s rich tale.

Feminist Periodicals: A Current Listing of Contents is published by the Office of the University of Wisconsin System Women's Studies Librarian on a quarterly basis with the intent of increasing pUblic awareness of feminist periodicals. It is our hope that Feminist Periodicals will serve several purposes: to keep the reader abreast of current topics in feminist literature; to increase readers' familiarity with a wide spectrum of feminist periodicals; and to provide the requisite bibliographic information should a reader wish to subscribe to a journal or to obtain a particular article at her library or through interlibrary loan. (Users will need to be aware of the limitations of the new copyright law with regard to photocopying of copyrighted materials.) Table of contents pages from current issues of major feminist journals are reproduced in each issue of Feminist Periodicals, preceded by a comprehensive annotated listing of all journals we have selected. As pUblication schedules vary enormously, not every periodical will have table of contents pages reproduced in each issue of FP. The annotated listing provides the following information on each journal: 1. Year of first publication. 2. Frequency of publication. 3. U.S. subscription price(s).

    Prosthetic Body Parts in Literature and Culture, 1832 to 1908 Submitted by Ryan Craig Sweet to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English, March 2016. This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. Ryan Sweet 1 [This page is intentionally left blank.] Ryan Sweet 2 Acknowledgements This thesis was generously funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council. I am eternally grateful for their support. I also appreciate the support of the other funding bodies, including the British Society for Literature and Science, the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada, the Wellcome Trust, and the College of Humanities at the University of Exeter, whose funding has enabled me to discuss work from this project in a variety of stimulating venues. I would like to offer sincere thanks to my supervisors Dr Jason Hall and Dr Richard Noakes, whose astute comments and attention to detail have shaped this thesis into the piece that it is today. Perhaps more so than anyone else, I owe Dr Hall a lot of gratitude for his support. If it was not for his encouragement, interest in my ideas, and commitment to my professional development, I would not have pursued a postgraduate degree in the first place.

Temple Lions and Clouds, Pre Rup, 2008 ARTREACH GALLERY at First Congregational UCC 1126 Park Avenue, Portland, OR 97205 WWW.UCCPORTLAND.ORG/ARTREACH THE LIBRARIAN by Willa Schneberg He cannot stop thinking about Pol Pot’s cadre living inside the French antebellum yellow building of the National Library in Phnom Penh, where book corpses shared the grounds with pigs and human swine wrenched books off shelves, yanked out pages of palm and mulberry leaves to light fires or roll their own smokes. He knows there are more books in his small branch library in Brooklyn than in all of Cambodia in 1977. He dutifully dusts the dust jackets of all the books, but they do not mind and snap to attention when he claps his hands. He cannot make the Cliff Notes patrons disappear, nor stop the library from subscribing to Reader’s Digest, so he must on his own time edit out the histories of horrors pummeled into paragraphs. At least on the pages that his palms caress bombs will become bowling balls. If only he could polish each phrase, thaw every frozen syllable, wouldn’t the healing begin? Doesn’t ink soak up blood?
