Content: "In 1934, Variety magazine published an article about the film industry's trend away from the helpless female characters of the silent era, saying, "That's what people like now-women who are down to earth-an Aline MacMahon, who knows what it's about." New Movie Magazine included MacMahon on its list of ten best new stars of 1933, alongside Katharine Hepburn, Paul Muni, and Dick Powell, and the Los Angeles Times named her one of the three best actresses in the country. Critics and fans universally praised her performances, describing them as "natural," "honest," and "intelligent." MacMahon brought a new style of acting to Hollywood, a style she had learned as a member of New York's American Laboratory Theater, where actors studied Konstantin Stanislavsky's dramatic approach that came to be known as the Method. In Aline MacMahon, John Stangeland offers an insightful account of this influential actress and provides an in-depth look at the art and politics of golden age Hollywood.

Content: As a child, McMahon raked in adult earnings performing at local events and even had a weekly gig at Wanamaker's Manhattan department store entertaining children while their parents shopped. Hollywood director Mervyn LeRoy saw her on Broadway, convinced her to come to Los Angeles, and directed her in Five Star Final, a hit with Edward G. Robinson for which she received rave reviews. Her naturalism, in which she played characters rather than emoting for the camera, provided a striking contrast to the traditional declarative style ubiquitous in Hollywood. MacMahon appeared in countless films during the 1930s and 40s, including the early noir Heat Lightning, the western Silver Dollar, and the smash hit Golddiggers of 1933. Hollywood praised her versatility but struggled to find vehicles for her, and it became commonplace for reviewers to state that the hugely talented actress provided the only bright spot in an otherwise pedestrian film.

Content: She became typecast in comedic roles as a long-suffering, middle-aged wife or secretary with an acerbic wit. Although she shone in these performances-and managed to earn a high salary during the Depression-she longed to stretch herself creatively in more imaginative, diverse dramatic roles. Also contributing to her casting woes were her own contradictory feelings about the film industry. She loved acting in movies, saying that "the tiniest emotion can be caught on camera," but she found Hollywood to be juvenile and vulgar. She insisted that her studio contract guarantee her several months off every year so she could travel and live away from Los Angeles. Her interest in leftist politics kept her under FBI covert surveillance for many years, even though she was never a Communist Party member and had proved her patriotism supporting the war effort in World War II.

Note: Till the first star shook in the air -- Life begins -- Teach me, and set my feet on the way -- The river of stars is rolling -- No one has ever known her alive -- Once in a lifetime -- At once they circled her round -- Reward unlimited -- Gold digging -- Seeds of freedom -- One way passage -- The world changes -- We fight it round by round -- Ah wilderness -- Set my feet on the way

Series Statement: The Profile history of the ancient world

Content: The ancient world that Alexander the Great transformed in his lifetime was transformed once more by his death. The imperial dynasties of his successors incorporated and reorganized the fallen Persian empire, creating a new land empire stretching from the shores of the Mediterranean to as far east as Bactria. In old Greece a fragile balance of power was continually disturbed by wars. Then, from the late third century, the military and diplomatic power of Rome successively defeated and dismantled every one of the post-Alexandrian political structures. The Hellenistic period (c. 323-30 BC) was then one of fragmentation, violent antagonism between large states, and struggles by small polities to retain an illusion of independence. Yet it was also a period of growth, prosperity, and intellectual achievement. A vast network spread of trade, influence and cultural contact, from Italy to Afghanistan and from Russia to Ethiopia, enriching and enlivening centres of wealth, power and intellectual ferment. From Alexander the Great's early days building an empire, via wars with Rome, rampaging pirates, Cleopatra's death and the Jewish diaspora, right up to the death of Hadrian, Chaniotis examines the social structures, economic trends, political upheaval and technological progress of an era that spans five centuries and where, perhaps, modernity began

Content: Frontmatter -- Contents -- Acknowledgements -- Debora Vogel’s Blooming Spaces: An Introduction -- Essays on Literature and Poetics -- Essays on Art, Artists, and the Applied Arts -- Essays on Socio-Critical Issues -- Selections from Day Figures (1930) -- Selections from Mannequins (1934) -- Selections from Acacias Bloom: Montage (1935/36) -- Reviews of Day Figures (1930) and Mannequins (1934) -- Reviews of Acacias Bloom -- Discussions of the Yiddish Edition of Akatsyes blien (1935) -- Reviews of the Polish Edition of Akacje kwitną -- Index

Content: This ground-breaking collection features the oeuvre of Debora Vogel (1900-1942), a Modernist Polish and Yiddish writer, philosopher, translator, and art critic. The author’s poems are examples of Cubist-Constructivist experimentation in a language that is at once lyrical and philosophical.Vogel’s poetry challenges every notion of writing in Yiddish literature from the author’s lifetime to ours. The writer’s prose collection transplants experiments in photography, film, and painting, into the literary medium. Vogel’s articles deal with a variety of topics ranging from abstract art, and individual artists like Marc Chagall and Fernand Leger, to matters of applied arts, including discussions of the interiors of modern apartments, the typography of children’s books, and an overview of fashion exhibitions. In addition, Vogel’s essays examine racism and anti-Semitism, the tasks of progressive intellectuals’ engagement in the society, and the use of literary montage as a way literature ‘does politics.’ Vogel’s extensive travels to Berlin, Stockholm, Vienna, and Paris, and her intimate familiarity with the cityscapes of her native Lwów are reflected in her writings. Vogel’s multimodal writing could be read in conjunction with Giorgio de Chirico’s, Pablo Picasso’s, or El Lissitsky’s paintings, Max Ernst’s painterly and writerly experiments, or Fritz Lang’s, Dziga Vertov’s, and Sergei Eisenstein’s films. Lyubas situates Vogel as the key, yet unrecognized figure for thought and literature of the early and late 20th century, as well as a thinker whose insights are crucial to grasp the contemporary socio-political issues. This is the first collection of Vogel’s writings in English translation
