He sees another man hunting nearby, astounded that they look exactly alike except for his own beard. After following this other man home, he witnesses a wife and child that brings forth a rush of memories of his own wife and child, except he’s certain they do not exist in modern times—but from his life in the late 1800s. The Ancestor is a thrilling page turner in present day Alaska and a historical adventure about the perilous Gold Rush expeditions where prospectors left behind their lives for the promise of hope and a better future. The question remains whether it was all worth the sacrifice. Running Time: 768 minutes; Retail Price: $39.95 Audio CD The Antithesis: Inception, Book 1 of the Hymn of the Multiverse Series / Terra Whiteman Read by RD Watson Civil war between demons and angels lies just on the horizon. Justice Alezair Czynri, newest recruit of the Purgatorial Jury, is thrown into a world of murder, exploitation, mind-altering substances and bureaucratic red-tape as he and his court attempt to diffuse escalating conflicts. And beneath the tur- bulent surface, things are very wrong. Ever since his induction into the Celestial Court, Alezair has been treated with disdain by the Justice Commander, Leid Koseling. A former prisoner of the Nexus Initiative, Justice Czynri exists without any memories of his former life, the consequence of being a slave merc for hire. Whispers in the void tell him there’s something more to Leid—more to all of this— but neither the celestials nor his colleagues are willing to divulge their dark history. Running Time: 494 minutes; Retail Price: $39.95 Audio CD The Antithesis: Honor, Book 2 of the Hymn of the Multiverse Series / Terra Whiteman Read by RD Watson Qaira Eltruan leads the fearsome Sanctum Enforcers, a specialized military sect designed to eradicate angel terrorists. But Qaira’s father and his people don’t know the sordid deeds it takes to keep the angels from invading. He has blood on his hands; so much that it has stained his skin forever. As the Regent slips into early-onset dementia, Qaira is forced to take the throne. The Regent’s appointed council contracts an otherworldly Scholar to oversee and advise Qaira’s rise to power. If Qaira can find a way to put up with her attitude, this Scholar has knowledge, secrets, that can serve to sway the battle in their favor. But Scholar Leid Koseling has secrets of her own. Secrets that may kill them all. Running Time: 530 minutes; Retail Price: $39.95 Audio CD The Antithesis: Fallen, Book 3 of the Hymn of the Multiverse Series / Terra Whiteman Read by RD Watson Sanctum is lost. The angels have won. Regent Qaira Eltruan is cornered. Surrender or stand to lose everything—everything being Advisor Leid Koseling and his sanity. As his people await news of their fate, the Court of Enigmus circles Sanctum, ready to deal swift punishment for Leid’s contract breach. All fronts look bleak, and now there’s much more at stake than Qaira’s world. Except Qaira isn’t willing to hand Leid over, nor is surrender part of his vocabulary. Running Time: 413 minutes; Retail Price: $39.95 Audio CD The Antithesis: War, Book 4 of the Hymn of the Multiverse Series / Terra Whiteman Read by RD Watson A storm has swept across The Atrium. Hell has declared war on Heaven, and Argent Commander Yah- weh Telei is left without any time to prepare. Leid and her guardians face exile from The Atrium, as the end of the Contest means the end of their contract. With expiration quickly eating away at her, it won’t be long before Calenus Karim and the Court of Enigmus come to drag Leid back to Exo’daius. As ev- erything unravels at the seams, Qaira Eltruan is forced to face his crimes and all the consequences they have brought. The Atrium isn’t his home anymore, yet something calls him back. One thing is certain: with Qaira comes all the secrets The Atrium and its inhabitants have long since buried. Running Time: 447 minutes; Retail Price: $39.95 Audio CD The Antithesis: Vengeance, Book 5 of the Hymn of the Multiverse Series /Terra Whiteman Read by RD Watson Promise, promise. Heart of knives. Maghir will bleed them for their crimes. This is the final installment of The Antithesis arc. The Argent Forces have been crippled. Two Vel’Haru are dead. Calenus Karim, Exodian Silver King, is no longer willing to stand by and let the war continue. And in the middle of this all, Yahweh is forced to deal with the death of his brother and his permanent placement as Leid’s newest guardian. The carrion crows are circling Qaira and Leid once more, their wings beating to the countdown of the doomsday clock that permanently looms over the Jury’s heads. Nothing bodes well for them anymore, but Malkhet’s epic may prove to be a self-fulfilling prophecy just yet. Running Time: 508 minutes; Retail Price: $39.95 Audio CD At the Gates of Walhalla / Justin Forge Read by the Author Kurt Sorensen’s life as a U.S. Border Patrol Officer takes a devastating turn when his wife and twins are killed in an apparently random attack in Juarez. Kurt leaves the painful memories behind and returns to his peaceful, stunningly beautiful hometown, North Walhalla, Manitoba. Instead of finding peace and tranquility, Kurt is swept up in a vortex of evil that seems to have followed him northward. Trying to protect Walhalla from the infiltration of death and drugs, Kurt battles an infamous drug lord, only to be shocked at the revelation of the drug gang’s silent business partner. Kurt draws on his ancestral Vi- king spirit to recruit a secret militia to right the wrongs in society, but the militia, the drug lord and an ominous third party are on collision courses, which intersect at the gates of Viking Heaven—Walhalla. Running Time: 531 minutes; Retail Price: $39.95 Audio CD The Aunties / Debbie Boucher Read by Monroe Clark McBride Deborah’s career is at a dead end. After a splashy debut with her first novel, she’s languished as a free- lancer, her potential unfulfilled. But the death of an elderly aunt provides unexpected source material, as she and her family discover journals and letters that bring to life a colorful and shocking past. The Aunties is a novel within a novel—the story of Deborah’s quest to fictionalize her unexpected legacy. From Gilded Age America to World War II, from plain farm life to high society, from America’s heart- land to wild and colorful Brazil, The Aunties is a story of family love and loyalty through adversity. Running Time: 607 Minutes; Retail Price: $39.95 Audio CD The Authoritarians / Bob Altemeyer Read by the Author Ever since John W. Dean published his Conservatives Without Conscience in 2006, much interest has been vested in the research of Dr. Bob Altemeyer that was so prominently featured in the book. In CWC, Dean set out to learn why modern conservatives seemed to think and behave in ways diametri- cally opposite the righteous and moral values they so publicly espoused. What he discovered was an existing body of scientific research tracing back to the cinders of the Holocaust. This research focused on the Authoritarian Personality, which social scientists believe was the enabling element within Ger- man society that was so deftly exploited by Adolph Hitler and the Third Reich. Running Time: 557 Minutes; Retail Price: $14.95 Audio CD / $9.95 MP3 CD Back to Normal / Debbie Boucher Read by Candice Goodman Set in the Eastern Sierra, BACK TO NORMAL introduces the reader to Sue Beauchamp whose lie of twenty years is exposed the night her daughter, Michelle, is injured in an accident. To save Michelle’s life, Sue contacts the biological father, John Sadek, a neighbor, for a transfusion. With her secret exposed, Sue’s life unravels. Her husband, Chris, leaves and takes “his” sons with him. John wants a relationship with a child he’s never been allowed to know, and when Michelle discovers the “truth,” she runs away. As Sue attempts to save her own life, BACK TO NORMAL becomes a meditation on truth and lies and the gray area of a love lived in between. Running Time: 730 minutes; Retail Price: $39.95 Audio CD Backbiters / Debra Leea Glasheen Read by Rebecca Roberts I’m Giluli of the Red Mighty Nationland. Fifty-four years ago, the Corporate World War of 2050 an- nihilated a bunch of animal and insect species on the planet, not to mention billions of people, but the good news is that we were born—the Red Mighties. They don’t like us. They call us mutants. I’m attending their high school in the afternoons to try to understand them better, which believe me is no cup of tea, except for one particular Pre-ev guy who I could drink right up.

  • Brother David Steindl-Rast Papers
    Special Collections and University Archives : University Libraries Brother David Steindl-Rast Papers 1926-2010 22 boxes (33 linear ft.) Call no.: MS 892 Collection overview Brother David Steindl-Rast was born Franz Kuno in Vienna, Austria, in 1926. He discovered The Rule of St. Benedict as a young man, which sent him on a search for an authentic version of Benedictine practice. This search brought him through the Second World War in Vienna, where he earned a Ph.D from the University of Vienna in 1952 and to the Mount Savior Monastery in Elmira, New York, where he became a monk in 1953. Along with his friend Thomas Merton, Brother David is one of the most important figures in the modern interfaith dialogue movement, leaving Mount Savior in the mid-1960s to study Zen Buddhism with Hakuun Yajutami, Shunayu Suzuki, and Soen Nakagawa. He was the first Benedictine to learn directly from Buddhist teachers and received Vatican support for his bridge-building work in 1967. Through Merton, Brother David met Thich Nhat Hanh, who introduced him to the peace movement and grounded Brother David's spirituality in a tradition of activism. When not in seclusion, Brother David has served as a teacher of contemplative prayer, the intersection of Zen and Catholicism, and gratefulness as a spiritual practice. Through many books and articles, lectures, and residencies in spiritual centers like Tassajara and the Esalen Institute, Brother David has developed an influential philosophy and much of the current popularity of mindfulness and Zen-influenced living and activism owes a debt to his teachings.

Abstract The collection holds theatrical plays of the late 19th early 20th centuries, film screenplays from the Depression and New Deal periods, as well as television scripts from the 1950s. The majority of the plays were written, copyrighted, or possibly produced by Charles Morton and his agency.

Collection of American Popular Drama, [Box #, Folder #], Special Collections Research Center, University of Chicago Library Historical Note By the end of the 19th century in America there had developed a fairly large market for playbills and scripts of plays. Theater attendance had increased dramatically through the 19th century and had become progressively more accessible to a wider range of social classes and groups. Not surprisingly, a sort of “play piracy” developed as a consistent problem, particularly since the development of copyright law did not develop extensively until the 20th century.

    Marion Leonard Lived: June 9, 1881 - January 9, 1956 Worked as: film actress, producer, screenwriter Worked In: United States by Sarah Delahousse It is well known that Florence Lawrence, the first “Biograph Girl,” was frustrated in her desire to exploit her fame by the company that did not, in those years, advertise their players’ names. Lawrence is thought to have been made the first motion picture star by an ingenious ploy on the part of IMP, the studio that hired her after she left the Biograph Company. But the emphasis on the “first star” eclipses the number of popular female players who vied for stardom and the publicity gambles they took to achieve it. Eileen Bowser has argued that Lawrence was “tied with” the “Vitagraph Girl,” Florence Turner, for the honorific, “first movie star” (1990, 112). In 1909, the year after Lawrence left Biograph, Marion Leonard replaced her as the “Biograph Girl.” At the end of 1911, Leonard would be part of the trend in which favorite players began to find ways to exploit their popularity, but she went further, establishing the first “star company,” according to Karen Mahar (62). Leonard had joined the Biograph Company in 1908 after leaving the Kalem Company, where she had briefly replaced Gene Gauntier as its leading lady. Her Kalem films no longer exist nor are they included in any published filmography, and few sources touch on her pre-Biograph career. Thus it is difficult to assess her total career. However, Marion Leonard was most likely a talented player as indicated by her rapid ascension to the larger and more prominent studio.
