More than They Bargained ForScott Walker, Unions, and the Fight for WisconsinJason Stein and Patrick Marley

“For better and worse, divided Wisconsin has been at the forefront of American politics recently, and to understand what happened and why, Jason Stein and Patrick Marley’s deeply reported and illuminating book is an invaluable resource.” David Maraniss, Madison native and author of Barack Obama: The Story

When Wisconsin became the first state in the nation in 1959 to let public employees bargain with their employers, the leg-islation catalyzed changes to labor laws across the country. In March 2011, when newly elected governor Scott Walker repealed most of that labor law and subsequent ones—and then became the first governor in the nation to survive a recall election fifteen months later—it sent a different message. Both times, Wisconsin took the lead, first empowering public unions and then weakening them. This book recounts the battle between the Republican governor and the unions.

The struggle drew the attention of the country and the notice of the world, launching Walker as a national star for the Republican Party and simultaneously energizing and damaging the American labor movement. Madison was the site of one unprecedented spectacle after another: 1:00 a.m. parliamentary maneuvers, a camel slipping on icy Madison streets as union firefighters rushed to assist, massive nonviolent street protests, and a weeks-long occupation that blocked the marble halls of the Capitol and made its rotunda ring.

Jason Stein and Patrick Marley, award-winning journalists for the Milwau-kee Journal Sentinel, covered the fight firsthand. They center their account on the frantic efforts of state officials meeting openly and in the Capitol’s elegant backrooms as protesters demonstrated outside. Conducting new in-depth inter-views with elected officials, labor leaders, police officers, protestors, and other key figures, and drawing on new documents and their own years of experience as statehouse reporters, Stein and Marley have written a gripping account of the wildest sixteen months in Wisconsin politics since the era of Joe McCarthy. They offer new insights on the origins of Walker’s wide-ranging budget-repair bill, which included the provision to end public-sector collective bargaining; the Senate Democrats’ decision to leave the state to try to block the bill; Democrats’ talks with both union leaders and Republicans while in Illinois; and the reasons why compromise has become, as one Republican dissenter put it, a “dirty word” in politics today.

Jason Stein and Patrick Marley both cover the Capitol for Wisconsin’s largest newspaper, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Stein previously covered politics and business for the Wisconsin State Journal and has received national recognition for his reporting. He is a past president of the Wisconsin Capitol Correspondents Association. Marley previously covered local government for the Kenosha News. His work has been recognized by the Wisconsin Freedom of Information Coun-cil and the Wisconsin Newspaper Association.

“A timely report on one of the most tumultuous periods in Wisconsin’s history. Stein and Marley cover the substance of the story without bias and include details not previously known to the public. “ Joe Heim, political analyst, Wisconsin Public Radio

“An important work that offers behind-the-scenes details on the institutional players most involved in the events leading up to and following Governor Scott Walker’s introduction of his explosive col-lective bargaining bill. It will be of great interest to those who have fol-lowed the drama closely as well as to lay readers.” Judith Davidoff, news editor, Isthmus

Worse than the DevilAnarchists, Clarence Darrow, and Justice in a Time of TerrorDean A. Strang

“A probing, sensitive account. Dean A. Strang, himself a skillful defense attorney, has exposed American racism at its worst, and perversion and corruption of the legal system at its best.” Stanley Kutler, author of Wars of Watergate

In 1917 a bomb exploded in a Milwaukee police station, killing nine officers and a civilian. Those responsible never were apprehended, but police, press, and pub-lic all assumed that the perpetrators were Italian. Days later, eleven alleged Italian anarchists went to trial on unrelated charges involving a fracas that had occurred two months before. Against the backdrop of World War I, and amidst a prevail-ing hatred and fear of radical immigrants, the Italians had an unfair trial. The specter of the larger, uncharged crime of the bombing haunted the proceedings and assured convictions of all eleven. Although Clarence Darrow led an appeal that gained freedom for most of the convicted, the celebrated lawyer’s methods themselves were deeply suspect. The entire case left a dark, if hidden, stain on American justice.

Largely overlooked for almost a century, the compelling story of this case emerges vividly in this meticulously researched book by Dean A. Strang. In its focus on a moment when patriotism, nativism, and terror swept the nation, the themes in Worse than the Devil still resonate as the United States continues to struggle with administering criminal justice to newcomers and outsiders.

“Dean A. Strang’s fascinating book excavates a conspiracy trial in Milwaukee back in 1917 that sheds crucial insights into the failings of our legal system and the hazards of succumbing to mass hysteria against immigrants and alleged ter-rorists. The book provides urgent lessons for us all.”—Matthew Rothschild, editor of The Progressive

Dean A. Strang is a criminal defense lawyer in Madison, Wisconsin, and an adjunct professor at the law schools of the University of Wisconsin and Mar-quette University. For more than fifteen years he lived on the Milwaukee block that was the scene of the September 1917 riot.

“In engaging prose and with a terrific eye for detail, Dean A. Strang gives us the full story of a fascinating—and almost forgot-ten—moment of conflict from Milwaukee’s past. His book explores debates over civil liberties and ter-rorism, immigration and radicalism as they were lived and fought over a century ago.” Beverly Gage, author of The Day Wall Street Exploded

SisterAn African American Life in Search of JusticeSylvia Bell White and Jody LePage

“A fascinating biography, adding important insight into the African Ameri-can experience in Wisconsin as well as the broader histories of migration, race, and employment in the twentieth-century United States.” William P. Jones, author of The Tribe of Black Ulysses: African American Lumber Workers in the Jim Crow South

Raised with twelve brothers in a part of the segregated South that provided no school for African American children through the 1940s, Sylvia Bell White went North as a teenager, dreaming of a nursing career and a freedom defined in part by wartime rhetoric about American ideals. In Milwaukee she and her broth-ers persevered through racial rebuffs and discrimination to find work. Barred by both her gender and color from employment in the city’s factories, Sylvia scrubbed floors, worked as a nurse’s aide, and took adult education courses.

When a Milwaukee police officer killed her younger brother Daniel Bell in 1958, the Bell family suspected a racial murder but could do nothing to prove it—until twenty years later, when one of the two officers involved in the incident unexpectedly came forward. Daniel’s siblings filed a civil rights lawsuit against the city and ultimately won that four-year legal battle. Sylvia was the driving force behind their quest for justice.

Telling her whole life story in these pages, Sylvia emerges as a buoyant spirit, a sparkling narrator, and, above all, a powerful witness to racial injustice. Jody LePage’s chapter introductions frame the narrative in a historical span that reaches from Sylvia’s own enslaved grandparents to the nation’s first African American president. Giving depth to that wide sweep, this oral history brings us into the presence of an extraordinary individual. Rarely does such a voice receive a hearing.

Sylvia Bell White was born in Milwaukee in 1930 and raised in Louisiana. She migrated to Milwaukee at seventeen and now lives near Milwaukee. Jody LePage has a PhD in history from the University of Wisconsin–Madison and lives in Madison.

Wisconsin Studies in AutobiographyWilliam L. Andrews, Series Editor

“A vivid and moving story, Sylvia Bell White’s life tracks the roots and routes of many working-class black people of her generation. But she also shows her vibrant individuality, her refusal to be the typical or the representative woman, her deter-mination to be herself.” William L. Andrews, series editor and coeditor of The Norton Anthology of African American Literature

Along the way to finding whooping cranes and lake sturgeon and elk, Candice Andrews leads us to the state’s other hidden treasures—pocket prairies and spawning streams and woodland dunes. So grab your compass and binoculars—and this book!” John Hildebrand, author of A Northern Front: New & Collected Essays

Make this the year you Travel Wild Wisconsin.

Candice Gaukel Andrews is the author of Great Wisconsin Winter Weekends, The Minnesota Almanac, Beyond the Trees: Stories of Wisconsin Forests, and An Adventurous Nature: Tales from Natural Habitat Adventures.

TroutsmithAn Angler’s Tales and TravelsKevin Searock

Kevin Searock transports readers to the waterside as he explores the time-less relationship between the outdoors and the sport of fishing.

Whether standing in a quiet Wisconsin creek, by a high-country lake in Wyo-ming, or on the grassy margins of England’s hallowed chalkstreams, Kevin Searock believes anglers are driven by a vision: “There are things on this good Earth that only the angler sees, and one of them is the breathless beauty of a trout emerging from a river.” Here, in this evocative collection of fishing essays, he takes readers under the surface of this ancient sport, casting a spell of water-magic. Although trout are central to many of the stories, bluegills, bass, and other warm-water fish also grace these pages.

Telling stories in thoughtful prose, Searock writes about fly-tying, collecting fishing literature, journaling, and traveling in a way that makes Troutsmith a rich and varied meditation on fishing and the outdoors.

“We all, if we are lucky, find ways of loving the world. Fishing is how Kevin Searock loves the world. These essays, like all good love stories, are windows into a strange and obsessive heart. Searock’s fishing illuminates our land and waters and the nature and mystery of how we love.”—David Allan Cates, author of Freeman Walker

Kevin Searock is an avid fisherman, photogra-pher, and outdoors writer whose articles have appeared in Gray’s Sporting Journal, Midwest Fly Fishing, Wisconsin Outdoor Journal, and Wisconsin Trails. He lives in Baraboo, Wiscon-sin, and teaches advanced placement biology and chemistry at Portage High School.

Autobiography of My HungersRigoberto González

“An unforgettable portrait of the artist as a young immigrant gay poet. These brief, passionate chapters are filled with rare courage, raw honesty, and the uncommon beauty of a life spent yearning for consolation and hope. Absolutely arresting.” Dinty W. Moore, author of Between Panic & Desire

Rigoberto González, author of the critically acclaimed memoir Butterfly Boy: Memories of a Chicano Mariposa, takes a second piercing look at his past through a startling new lens: hunger.

The need for sustenance originating in childhood poverty, the adolescent emo-tional need for solace and comfort, the adult desire for a larger world, another lover, a different body—all are explored by González in a series of heartbreaking and poetic vignettes.

Each vignette is a defining moment of self-awareness, every moment an important step in a lifelong journey toward clarity, knowledge, and the nourish-ment that comes in various forms—even “the smallest biggest joys” help piece together a complex portrait of a gay man of color who at last defines himself by what he learns, not by what he yearns for.

Rigoberto González is the author of thirteen books of poetry and prose and the editor of Camino del Sol: Fifteen Years of Latina and Latino Writing. His memoir Butterfly Boy: Memories of a Chicano Mariposa won the American Book Award, and he has received fellowships from the Guggen-heim Foundation and the National Endowment for the Arts. He is a contributing editor for Poets & Writers Magazine, serves on the executive board

of directors of the National Book Critics Circle, and is an associate professor of English at Rutgers-Newark, the State University of New Jersey.

How to DisappearA Memoir for MisfitsDuncan Fallowell

“A strange and wonderful book. Fallowell is a marvelous raconteur who seems incapable of writing a dull sentence.” James Magruder, author of Sugarless

Duncan Fallowell sets out to odd corners of the world in pursuit of some extraor-dinary and improbable characters who were in most cases momentarily famous—or infamous—and then simply disappeared. The first to disappear is the author himself—to a ghostly hotel on a Mediterranean island. His subjects, though unmet or hardly met, live for the reader with remarkable vividness, such as the Ger-man artist who bought a large island in the Hebrides and vanished immediately afterward to the astonishment of its inhabitants. Fallowell tracks down the recluse who inspired Evelyn Waugh’s creation Sebastian Flyte, the legendary love object of Waugh’s novel Brideshead Revisited, who wants both to forget the past and to cling to it. He even pursues the ultimate disappearance—the death of Princess Diana—and the miasma of shock, wonder, and grief that followed, writing “Mystification is absolutely essential to our feeling of being alive.”

A highly original exploration of exposure, withdrawal, escape, and failing to belong, How to Disappear winds through the eerie abyss that can open up between someone—or something—being both real and phantom.

Duncan Fallowell writes novels, history, autobiography, travel, libretti, lyrics, and journalism. Most recently, he is author of the novel A History Of Facelifting and the travel book Going As Far As I Can. His essays, interviews, and reviews have appeared in a broad range of magazines and journals, including Vanity Fair, Playboy, The Paris Review, Esquire, Harper’s, GQ, The Times, The Guardian, and Prospect. He is based in London.

The Beauty of Men Never DiesAn Autobiographical NovelDavid Leddick

“We don’t have many voices with 70-plus years of experience to tell us what life and romance is like for a gay man at that age, but David Led-dick has always defied expectations—never retiring, always reinventing himself. We are richer for having his voice to tell us what he sees from the vantage—advantage, actually—of his vibrant age, tall, proud, and ever wondering.” Tom Bianchi, author of Men I’ve Loved

Buoyant and entertaining, this melding of memoir and fiction recounts with humor and candid observation a gay man’s romances in his seventies, offering insight into the joys (and a few of the sorrows) of loving, living, and aging with grace, style, and a fearless sense of fun.

Bouncing between Montevideo, New York, and Paris, the narrator reveals his adventurous life, his many lovers, his varied careers from dance to advertising, and the upbeat outlook that sustains him as he pursues the elusive Fenil, a hand-some Uruguayan policeman.

David Leddick’s short sketches, interspersed with memories, attitudes, and opinions drawn from the past, combine in a vivid tale of a life lived with panache at an age when most people think the adventure has already ended.

David Leddick is a writer, playwright, actor, and contributor to the Huffington Post. His previous careers have included service in the U.S. Navy, dancing with the Metropolitan Opera in New York, and working as creative director with the advertising clients Revlon and L’Oreal in New York and Paris. He began his writ-ing career at the age of sixty-five, and he is the author of twenty-three books, including the novels My Worst Date and The Sex Squad, as well as many photog-raphy books about the male nude.

A Heaven of WordsLast Journals, 1956–1984Glenway Wescottedited and with an introduction by Jerry rosco

“When a writer like Wescott is famous in youth, it is the later years that are often more fascinating.” Jonathan Gathorne-Hardy, author of Sex the Measure of All Things: A Life of Alfred C. Kinsey

Charm, wit, compassion, wisdom, literature, nature, sex, humor, politics, sor-row, love: these themes fill the late journal pages of enigmatic American writer Glenway Wescott. From humble beginnings on a poor Wisconsin farm, Wescott went on to study at the University of Chicago, narrowly survive the Spanish flu pandemic, and eventually emerge as an influential poet and novelist. A major figure in the American literary expatriate community in Paris during the 1920s and a prominent American novelist in the years leading up to World War II, he spent a decade living abroad before relocating permanently to New York and New Jersey with his partner, Museum of Modern Art publications director and curator Monroe Wheeler.

Together they mixed with such intellectual and creative greats as Jean Cocteau, Colette, George Platt Lynes, Paul Cadmus, Somerset Maugham, Christopher Isherwood, Marianne Moore, W. H. Auden, Truman Capote, Joseph Campbell, and scores of other luminaries. During the second half of his life, Wescott wrote nonfiction essays and worked for the Academy Institute of Arts and Letters, all the while keeping journals in which he recorded the experiences that fostered his love of life, literature, the arts, and humanity. A Heaven of Words looks back on Wescott’s entire fascinating life and reveals the riveting narrative of his last decades.

Glenway Wescott (1901–1987) began his writing career as a poet but is best known for his short stories and novels, notably The Grandmothers (1927), The Pilgrim Hawk: A Love Story (1940), and Apartment in Athens (1945). Jerry Rosco is author of Glenway Wescott Personally: A Biography, also published by the Uni-versity of Wisconsin Press, and coeditor of Continual Lessons: The Journals of Glenway Wescott, 1937–1955. He lives in New York City.

Understanding and Teaching the Vietnam WarEdited by John Day Tully, Matthew Masur, and Brad Austin

“This collection makes good on what it sets out to do: help high school and college teachers think about understanding and teaching the Vietnam War in new and innovative ways. There is a clear need for this kind of hands-on volume.” Mark Philip Bradley, author of Vietnam at War

Just as the Vietnam War presented the United States with a series of challenges, it presents a unique challenge to teachers at all levels. The war had a deep and lasting impact on American culture, politics, and foreign policy. Still fraught with controversy, this crucial chapter of the American experience is as rich in teachable moments as it is riddled with potential pitfalls—especially for students a genera-tion or more removed from the events themselves.

Addressing this challenge, Understanding and Teaching the Vietnam War offers a wealth of resources for teachers at the secondary and university levels. An introductory section features essays by eminent Vietnam War scholars George Herring and Marilyn Young, who reflect on teaching developments since their first pioneering classes on the Vietnam War in the early 1970s. A methods section includes essays that address specific methods and materials and discuss the use of music and film, the White House tapes, oral histories, the Internet, and other mul-timedia to infuse fresh and innovative dimensions to teaching the war. A topical section offers essays that highlight creative and effective ways to teach important topics, drawing on recently available primary sources and exploring the war’s most critical aspects—the Cold War, decolonization, Vietnamese perspectives, the French in Vietnam, the role of the Hmong, and the Tet Offensive. Every essay in the volume offers classroom-tested pedagogical strategies and detailed practical advice.

Taken as a whole, Understanding and Teaching the Vietnam War will help teach-ers at all levels navigate through cultural touchstones, myths, political debates, and the myriad trouble spots enmeshed within the national memory of one of the most significant moments in American history.

“An excellent one-stop shop for nonspecialists who regularly find themselves teaching about the Vietnam War.”—David Herzberg, State University of New York at Buffalo

John Day Tully is an associate professor of history at Central Connecticut State University and was the founding director of the Harvey Goldberg Program for Excellence in Teaching at the Ohio State University. Matthew Masur is an associ-ate professor of history at Saint Anselm College, where he is codirector of the Father Peter Guerin Center for Teaching Excellence. He is a member of the Teach-ing Committee of the Society for Historians of American Foreign Relations and writes on American-Vietnamese relations. Brad Austin is a professor of history at Salem State University. He has served as chair of the American Historical Asso-ciation’s Teaching Prize Committee and has worked with hundreds of secondary teachers as the academic coordinator of many Teaching American History grants.

Voices from the Plain of JarsLife under an Air WarSECoND EDiTioNEdited by Fred Branfman with essays and drawings by Laotian villagersforeword by alfred w. mccoy “A classic. . . . No American should be able to read [this book] without weeping at his country’s arro-gance.” Anthony Lewis, New York Times During the Vietnam War the United States government waged a massive, secret air war in neighboring Laos. Two million tons of bombs were dropped on one million people. Fred Branfman, an educational advisor living in Laos at the time, interviewed over 1,000 Laotian survivors. Shocked by what he heard and saw, he urged them to record their experiences in essays, poems, and pictures. Voices from the Plain of Jars was the result of that effort.

When first published in 1972, this book was instrumental in exposing the bombing. In this expanded edition Branfman follows the story forward in time, describing the hardships that Laotians faced after the war when they returned to find their farm fields littered with cluster munitions—explosives that continue to maim and kill today.

“In this small, shattering book we hear—as we are so rarely able to do—the voices of Asian peasants describing what we can barely begin to imagine.”—Gloria Emerson, New York Review of Books “Today, the significance of this book’s message has, if anything, increased. As Fred Branfman predicted with uncommon prescience, the massive U.S. bombing of Laos during the Vietnam War marked the advent of a new kind of warfare—automated, aerial, and secret—that is just now emerging as the dominant means of projecting U.S. power worldwide.”—Alfred W. McCoy, author of Torture and Impunity: The U.S. Doctrine of Coercive Interrogation Fred Branfman is a writer and activist on issues of peace and climate change who lives in Santa Barbara, California, and in Budapest.

American Evangelicals and the 1960sEdited by Axel R. Schäfer

“A rich and provocative reinterpretation of American evangelicalism in the decades after World War II. These essays upset conventional wisdom about the ways that American evangelicals responded to the American civil rights movement, the sexual revolution, the Vietnam War, and the Great Society.” John G. Turner, author of Bill Bright and Campus Crusade for Christ

In the late 1970s, the New Christian Right emerged as a formidable political force, boldly announcing itself as a unified movement representing the views of a “moral majority.” But that movement did not spring fully formed from its pre-decessors. American Evangelicals and the 1960s refutes the thesis that evangelical politics were a purely inflammatory backlash against the cultural and political upheaval of the decade.

Bringing together fresh research and innovative interpretations, this book demonstrates that evangelicals actually participated in broader American devel-opments during “the long 1960s,” that the evangelical constituency was more diverse than often noted, and that the notion of right-wing evangelical politics as a backlash was a later creation serving the interests of both Republican- conservative alliances and their critics. Evangelicalism’s involvement with—rather than its reaction against—the main social movements, public policy initia-tives, and cultural transformations of the 1960s proved significant in its 1970s political ascendance. Twelve essays that range thematically from the oil industry to prison ministry and from American counterculture to the Second Vatican Council depict modern evangelicalism both as a religious movement with its own internal dynamics and as one fully integrated into general American history.

Axel R. Schäfer is director of the David Bruce Centre for American Studies at Keele University in the United Kingdom. He is author of Countercultural Conservatives: American Evangelicalism from the Postwar Revival to the New Christian Right and of Piety and Public Funding: Evangelicals and the State in Modern America.

Cold War UniversityMadison and the New Left in the SixtiesMatthew Levin

“At last, a study that puts the saga of the 1960s New Left at the University of Wisconsin–Madison campus into proper context! Matthew Levin has done a marvelous job, and this book deserves the widest attention both from scholars and from veterans of the experience.” Paul Buhle, editor of History and the New Left: Madison, Wisconsin, 1950–1970

As the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union escalated in the 1950s and 1960s, the federal government directed billions of dollars to Ameri-can universities to promote higher enrollments, studies of foreign languages and cultures, and, especially, scientific research. In Cold War University, Matthew Levin traces the paradox that developed: higher education became increasingly enmeshed in the Cold War struggle even as university campuses became centers of opposition to Cold War policies. The partnerships between the federal govern-ment and major research universities sparked a campus backlash that provided the foundation, Levin argues, for much of the student dissent that followed. At the University of Wisconsin in Madison, one of the hubs of student political activism in the 1950s and 1960s, the protests reached their flashpoint with the 1967 demonstrations against campus recruiters from Dow Chemical, the manu-facturers of napalm.

Levin documents the development of student political organizations in Madi-son in the 1950s and the emergence of a mass movement in the decade that followed, adding texture to the history of national youth protests of the time. He shows how the University of Wisconsin tolerated political dissent even at the height of McCarthyism, an era named for Wisconsin’s own virulently anti-Communist senator, and charts the emergence of an intellectual community of students and professors that encouraged new directions in radical politics. Some of the events in Madison—especially the 1966 draft protests, the 1967 sit-in against Dow Chemical, and the 1970 Sterling Hall bombing—have become part of the fabric of “The Sixties,” touchstones in an era that continues to resonate in contemporary culture and politics.

Matthew Levin teaches high school social studies in McFarland, Wisconsin. He received his PhD in history from the University of Wisconsin–Madison.

“A compelling portrait of how Madi-son, Wisconsin, became an enduring hotbed for creative political activ-ism. By capturing the complexity of a campus that combines intellectual elitism with populist commitments and progressive inspirations with conservative Midwestern inhibi-tions, Levin shows how motivated students remain connected to a long history that transfers ideas and practices across generations.” Jeremi Suri, author of Liberty’s Surest Guard-ian: American Nation-Building from the Founders to Obama

About CrowsCraig Blais

Winner of the 2013 Felix Pollak Prize in Poetry, selected by Terrance Hayes

An unsentimental and at times disquieting first collection, the poems of About Crows excavate self, family, race, location, sex, art, and religion to uncover the artifacts of a succession of traumas that the speaker does not always experience firsthand but carries with him to refashion into some new importance. This is a book of half-states, broken affiliations, and dislocation.

The speaker leads the reader through the fragments of a flooded town that grows increasingly elusive the more one looks for it; through a succession of Seoul “love motels” that further displace the outsider to unclaimed margins transformed into sites of creative invention; through “galleries” of artwork, where movement, color, and image are renewed through ekphrasis; and through the world of the metatextual long poem “The Cult Poem,” where good and bad moral binaries tangle into a rat’s nest of our best and worst spiritual ambitions.

The poems and sequences of About Crows are marked by their artistic balance of the sublime and the profane, of polyphony, syntactical complexity, clashing images, cagey humor, and unsettling sincerity, all trying desperately to connect.

. . . When i tell her i’ve started to write a book “about crows,”she says she’s not certain if there ever was a bar across the street from her

nursery school or whether watermelons were sold from a truck therefor only a dollar. Though she’s been questioned countless times, she’s still

unsure what happened before her mouth learned to stop screaming and workedonly to lick condensation from the brick walls of a padlocked root cellar.

“These haunting, elegant poems are painted with smoke and the colors of the evening sky, and I feel as though I’m peering into rather than merely reading them. Each promises that something is about to happen; the tension they create is irresistible, and as I turn the pages, I find myself drumming my fingers in anticipation and thinking, ‘More, please—more.’” David Kirby

CentaurGreg Wrenn

Winner of the 2013 Brittingham Prize in Poetry, selected by Terrance Hayes

Greg Wrenn’s debut collection opens with a long poem in which a man undergoes surgery to become a centaur. Other poems speak in voices as varied as those of Robert Mapplethorpe, Hercules, and a Wise Man at the birth of Jesus. Centaur skitters along the blurred lines between compulsivity and following one’s heart, stasis and self-realization, human and animal. Here, suffering and transcendence are restlessly conjoined.

“Centaur testifies to the grave fact that humans can harm each other until they want to trade in their bodies: ‘I want to feel alive,’ says the man seeking to become a centaur as the book begins. This is a masterful poetic debut marked by lyric bril-liance and difficult, yet gleaming, wisdom.”—Katie Ford, author of Colosseum

“The terrific, turbulent poems in Greg Wrenn’s Centaur seem as much etched as written—acid-exact, black promises on white possibilities, lines and space cross-hatched with thrilling precision. These poems will startle you at first, and then haunt you long after.”—J. D. McClatchy, editor of The Yale Review and author of Hazmat

“These powerful poems mark the aliveness, suffering, and sensuality of the body. They map out erotic adventures and the loneliness of human need. They flout dan-ger with superb lyric craft. But they don’t stop there. Each poem offers a paradigm of yearning held together by a rare excellence of language and music. This is a marvelous debut collection.”—Eavan Boland, author of A Journey with Two Maps

Greg Wrenn, a native of northeast Florida, is a former Wallace Stegner Fellow and a recipi-ent of the Lyric Poetry Award from the Poetry Society of America. His work has appeared in New England Review, The American Poetry Review, The Yale Review, and elsewhere. He is a Jones Lecturer at Stanford University.

The Declarable FutureJennifer Boyden

Winner of the 2013 Four Lakes Poetry Prize

“I can’t remember a recent book so inhabited by a spirit of unease about where we find ourselves now. ‘Always in search of the voices,’ Jennifer Boyden writes, and I can feel her probing for a way to give shape, less to a catalog of our social and spiritual predicaments than the mood of our times.”—Bob Hicok, author of The Legend of Light

The poems in this book inhabit a world uneasily familiar and promising, but from the distance of a few possibilities into the future. In this collection of sharp, hallu-cinatory, and often darkly humorous poems, a lost man wanders among the towns of people who can’t remember what they named the children, how to find each other’s porches, or whether their buildings are still intact. That’s why they need the person with the loupe. Among the poems where doorknobs emit the daily news, stone angels fall from the sky, and the floating world’s harvest is whatever swims too close, the person with the loupe steadfastly verifies only what can be mea-sured, while the lost man is witness to the unquantifiable and the limitless. And throughout, precise and observant language leads us expertly into the gorgeous, precarious wilderness of The Declarable Future.

“From the crystal doorknob transmitters that open The Declarable Future to the last will of the lost man that closes it, I was utterly captivated by the power of Jennifer Boyden’s parallel world—a timely, disquieting parable for the broken one in which we live. Her lost man, like Z. Herbert’s Mr. Cogito, becomes an alter ego who inhabits and interprets our current predicament. Her colloquial language is lucid, metaphorically inventive, constantly surprising—a rare blend of the piquant and the quietly tragic.”—Eleanor Wilner, Warren Wilson College

Jennifer Boyden’s first book, The Mouths of Grazing Things, won the Brittingham Prize in Poetry in 2010. Her work has appeared in Folio, Orion, Gettysburg Review, and The Beloit Poetry Journal, among others. She is a recipient of a PEN Northwest Wilderness Writing Residency and lives on the Oregon coast, where she is a freelance editor and startup director of a writing and arts residency dedicated to cross-genre collaborations.

Find Your Story, Write Your MemoirLynn C. Miller and Lisa Lenard-Cook

“A remarkably compact, efficient, complete, and helpful guide to writing memoirs. I plan to use it in my own teaching.” Rachel Hadas, author of Strange Relation: A Memoir of Marriage, Dementia, and Poetry

Every person has a story to tell, but few beginners know how to uncover their story’s narrative potential. And despite a growing interest among students and cre-ative writers, few guides to the genre of memoirs and creative nonfiction highlight compelling storytelling strategies. Addressing this gap, authors Lynn C. Miller and Lisa Lenard-Cook provide a compact, accessible guide to memoir writing that shows how an aspiring memoir writer can use storytelling tools and tactics bor-rowed from fiction to weave personal experiences into the shape of a story.

Find Your Story, Write Your Memoir offers an overview of the building blocks of memoir writing. Individual chapters focus on key issues and challenges, such as the balance between the remembering narrator and the experiencing narra-tor, the capacity to honor the subjective voice, the occasion of telling (why does this narrator tell this story now?), creating an organically functional structure for a particular story, and taking the next steps with a written memoir. Drawing on their combined years of experience teaching memoir writing, authoring works of fiction and nonfiction, and working in autobiographical performance, Miller and Lenard-Cook provide a practical guide whose core philosophy is motivated by a key word: story.

Lynn C. Miller is the author of the novels Death of a Department Chair and The Fool’s Journey and coeditor of Voices Made Flesh: Performing Women’s Autobiography. A playwright and solo performer, she is former professor of theater and dance as well as women’s and gender studies at the University of

Texas at Austin. Lisa Lenard-Cook is the PEN-shortlisted author of Dissonance, Coyote Morning, and The Mind of Your Story. She is a faculty member at the Santa Barbara Writers Conference and at the Narrative Arts Center in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Together, they cofounded ABQ Writers Co-op, a creative community for Southwest writers.

The Last LaughFolk Humor, Celebrity Culture, and Mass-Mediated Disasters in the Digital Agetrevor J. blank

Q: What’s the difference between Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett?A: About three hours.

Widely publicized in mass media worldwide, high-profile tragedies and celeb-rity scandals—the untimely deaths of Michael Jackson and Princess Diana, the embarrassing affairs of Tiger Woods and President Clinton, the 9/11 attacks or the Challenger space shuttle explosion—often provoke nervous laughter and black humor. If in the past this snarky folklore may have been shared among friends and uttered behind closed doors, today the Internet’s ubiquity and instant interactivity propels such humor across a much more extensive and digitally mediated discursive space. New media not only let more people “in on the joke,” but they have also become the “go-to” formats for engaging in symbolic interac-tion, especially in times of anxiety or emotional suppression, by providing users an expansive forum for humorous, combative, or intellectual communication, including jokes that cross the line of propriety and good taste.

Moving through engaging case studies of Internet-derived humor about momentous disasters in recent American popular culture and history, The Last Laugh chronicles how and why new media have become a predominant means of vernacular expression. Trevor J. Blank argues that computer-mediated com-munication has helped to compensate for users’ sense of physical detachment in the “real” world, while generating newly meaningful and dynamic opportunities for the creation and dissemination of folklore. Drawing together recent develop-ments in new media studies with the analytical tools of folklore studies, he makes a strong case for the significance to contemporary folklore of technologically driven trends in folk and mass culture.

Trevor J. Blank is visiting assistant professor in the Department of English and Communica-tion at SUNY Potsdam. He is editor of the e-journal New Directions in Folklore and of the books Folklore and the Internet: Vernacular Expression in a Digital World and Folk Culture in the Digital Age: The Emergent Dynamics of Human Interaction.

With the Lapps in the High MountainsA Woman among the Sami, 1907–1908Emilie Demant Hattedited and translated by barbara Sjoholmforeword by Hugh beach

A classic travel account, vividly depicting Sami life in Lapland in the early twentieth century.

With the Lapps in the High Mountains is an entrancing true account, a classic of travel literature, and a work that deserves wider recognition as an early contri-bution to ethnographic writing. Published in 1913 and available here in its first English translation, it is the narrative of Emilie Demant Hatt’s nine-month stay in the tent of a Sami family in northern Sweden in 1907–8 and her participation in a dramatic reindeer migration over snow-packed mountains to Norway with another Sami community in 1908. A single woman in her thirties, Demant Hatt immersed herself in the Sami language and culture. She writes vividly of daily life, women’s work, children’s play, and the care of reindeer herds in Lapland a century ago.

While still an art student in Copenhagen in 1904, Demant Hatt had taken a vacation trip to northern Sweden, where she chanced to meet Sami wolf hunter Johan Turi. His dream of writing a book about his people sparked her interest in the culture, and she began to study the Sami language at the University of Copen-hagen. Though not formally trained as an ethnographer, she had an eye for detail. The journals, photographs, sketches, and paintings she made during her travels with the Sami enriched her eventual book, and in With the Lapps in the High Mountains she memorably portrays people, dogs, reindeer, and the beauty of the landscape above the Arctic Circle. This English-language edition also includes photographs by Demant Hatt, an introduction by translator Barbara Sjoholm, and a foreword by Hugh Beach, author of A Year in Lapland: Guest of the Rein-deer Herders.

Emilie Demant Hatt (1873–1958) became a prominent artist in Denmark. She helped Johan Turi write and publish his book, An Account of the Sami, which appeared in 1910 in an innovative bilingual Sami/Danish edition. Barbara Sjoholm is an award-winning novelist, frequent translator of Danish and Norwegian fiction and nonfiction, and cofounder of the small literary pub-lisher Seal Press. Her work also appears under the name Barbara Wilson. She lives in Port Townsend, Washington.

Goodbye, BrazilÉmigrés from the Land of Soccer and SambaMaxine L. Margolis

“Articulate and thorough in considering the reasons so many Brazilians have left their country, the diverse challenges and obstacles that different kinds of Brazilians face when they move abroad, and the cultural and social adaptations that occur as they seek a better life in their host countries or return to Brazil.” James N. Green, author of We Cannot Remain Silent: Opposition to the Brazilian Military Dictatorship in the United States

Brazil, a country that has always received immigrants, only rarely saw its own citizens move abroad. Beginning in the late 1980s, however, thousands of Brazil-ians left for the United States, Japan, Portugal, Italy, and other nations, propelled by a series of intense economic crises. By 2009 an estimated three million Brazil-ians were living abroad—about 40 percent of them in the United States.

Goodbye, Brazil is the first book to provide a global perspective on Brazil-ian emigration. Drawing and synthesizing data from a host of sociological and anthropological studies, preeminent Brazilian immigration scholar Maxine L. Margolis surveys and analyzes this greatly expanded Brazilian diaspora, asking who these immigrants are, why they left home, how they traveled abroad, how the Brazilian government responded to their exodus, and how their host coun-tries received them. Margolis shows how Brazilian immigrants, largely from the middle rungs of Brazilian society, have negotiated their ethnic identity outside Brazil. She argues that Brazilian society outside Brazil is characterized by the absence of well-developed, community-based institutions—with the exception of thriving, largely evangelical Brazilian churches.

Margolis looks to the future as well, asking what prospects at home and abroad await the new generation, children of Brazilian immigrants with little or no familiarity with their parents’ country of origin. Do Brazilian immigrants develop such deep roots in their host societies that they hesitate to return home despite Brazil’s recent economic boom—or have they become true transnationals, traveling between Brazil and their adopted lands but feeling not quite at home in either one?

Maxine L. Margolis is professor emerita of anthropology at the University of Florida and adjunct senior research scholar at the Institute for Latin American Studies at Columbia University. She is the author of Little Brazil: An Ethnography of Brazilian Immigrants in New York City, True to Her Nature: Changing Advice to American Women, and An Invisible Minority: Brazilians in New York City. She is a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.

ScatteredThe Forced Relocation of Poland’s Ukrainians after World War iiDiana Howansky Reilly

“Reilly’s engaging book, a valuable historical source, is a homage to the Lemkos, whose world has disappeared forever.” Piotr J. Wróbel, Konstanty Reynert Chair of Polish History, University of Toronto

Following World War II, the communist government of Poland forcibly relo-cated the country’s Ukrainian minority by means of a Soviet-Polish population exchange and then a secretly planned action code-named Operation Vistula. In Scattered, Diana Howansky Reilly recounts these events through the experiences of three siblings caught up in the conflict, during a turbulent period when com-pulsory resettlement was a common political tactic used against national minori-ties to create homogenous states.

Born in the Lemko region of southeastern Poland, Petro, Melania, and Hania Pyrtej survived World War II only to be separated by political decisions over which they had no control. Petro relocated with his wife to Soviet Ukraine during the population exchange of 1944–46, while his sisters Melania and Hania were resettled to western Poland through Operation Vistula in 1947. As the Ukrainian Insurgent Army fought resettlement, the Polish government meanwhile impris-oned suspected sympathizers within the Jaworzno concentration camp. Melania, Reilly’s maternal grandmother, eventually found her way to the United States during Poland’s period of liberalization in the 1960s.

Drawing on oral interviews and archival research, Reilly tells a fascinating, true story that provides a bottom-up perspective and illustrates the impact of extraordinary historical events on the lives of ordinary people. Tracing the story to the present, she describes survivors’ efforts to receive compensation for the destruction of their homes and communities.

Diana Howansky Reilly has master’s degrees from Johns Hopkins University, in international affairs, and from the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism. She lives in Connecticut.

Libraries and the Reading Public in Twentieth-Century AmericaEdited by Christine Pawley and Louise S. Robbins

“The focus on libraries not as cold, impersonal institutions engaged in promulgating top-down policies but rather as spaces populated by people with diverse backgrounds, needs, and values is what makes this volume valuable.” Joan Shelley Rubin, University of Rochester

For well over one hundred years, libraries open to the public have played a cru-cial part in fostering in Americans the skills and habits of reading and writing, by routinely providing access to standard forms of print: informational genres such as newspapers, pamphlets, textbooks, and other reference books, and liter-ary genres including poetry, plays, and novels. Public libraries continue to have an extraordinary impact; in the early twenty-first century, the American Library Association reports that there are more public library branches than McDonald’s restaurants in the United States. Much has been written about libraries from pro-fessional and managerial points of view, but less so from the perspectives of those most intimately involved—patrons and librarians.

Drawing on circulation records, patron reviews, and other archived materials, Libraries and the Reading Public in Twentieth-Century America underscores the evolving roles that libraries have played in the lives of American readers. Each essay in this collection examines a historical circumstance related to reading in libraries. The essays are organized in sections on methods of researching the his-tory of reading in libraries; immigrants and localities; censorship issues; and the role of libraries in providing access to alternative, nonmainstream publications. The volume shows public libraries as living spaces where individuals and groups with diverse backgrounds, needs, and desires encountered and used a great vari-ety of texts, images, and other media throughout the twentieth century.

Christine Pawley and Louise S. Robbins have both served as professor and director of the School of Library and Information Studies at the Univer-sity of Wisconsin–Madison. Pawley’s publications include Reading Places: Literacy, Democracy, and the Public Library in Cold War America. Robbins is author of The Dismissal of Miss Ruth Brown: Civil Rights, Censorship, and the American Library.

Layton’s LegacyAn Historic American Art Collection, 1888–2013John C. Eastberg and Eric Vogelforewords by Dianne macleod and giles waterfield Before Carnegie, Frick, Whitney, and Guggenheim, there was Frederick Layton. This is the story of how he created a new art museum experience in America. Frederick Layton (1827–1919) was among the very first art collectors in America to fund a purpose-built civic art gallery for the public’s use and enjoyment. Second only to the 1874 Corcoran Gallery of Art in Wash-ington, D.C., the 1888 Layton Art Gallery in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, pre-sented a new model for the single-patron art museum in America, one significantly different from the established museums of Boston and New York. Frederick Layton and his British architect George Audsley devel-oped a new vision for a more intimate art museum experience. They drew upon their knowledge of English precedents to create a refined, single-story, top-lit, urban gallery that would influence the development of the American art museum well into the twentieth century.

Layton’s Legacy draws on a recently discovered archive of Layton family papers, travel journals, and vintage photographs and on five years of extensive archival research in the United States and Great Britain. John C. Eastberg traces the trajec-tory of the collection’s development from its English origins through its grand European acquisitions, Gilded Age art auctions in New York, Progressive-era renovations, postwar deaccessions, and demolition of the original gallery, all lead-ing to a new era of curatorial innovation and major American art acquisitions at the end of the twentieth century. Eric Vogel looks more closely at the architectural history of the original Layton Art Gallery and its influence on the continuing lin-eage of the single-patron art museum.

Layton’s Legacy also includes the first fully illustrated documentation of the entire 125-year history of the Layton Art Collection. It includes object entries from more than twenty scholars of American and European painting, furniture, and decorative art and features the works of artists Eastman Johnson, Winslow Homer, Frederick Church, Thomas Cole, Bastien Lepage, William Bourguereau, James Tissot, Frederic Leighton, and Alma Tadema, among many others. Eminent scholars of nineteenth-century art, Dianne Macleod and Giles Waterfield, contrib-ute forewords. John C. Eastberg, a historian of the art and architecture of the American Gilded Age, is senior historian at the Captain Frederick Pabst Mansion in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. His books include Captain Frederick Pabst Mansion: An Illustrated His-tory and A Revolutionary in Milwaukee: George Mann Niedecken and His Milwau-kee Clients. Eric Vogel, an architect, designer, and architectural historian, is chair of the 3D Design Department at the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design.

Creating Old World WisconsinThe Struggle to Build an outdoor History Museum of Ethnic ArchitectureJohn D. Krugler

“In this gracefully written and insightful book, John D. Krugler pulls back the curtain to reveal the history behind one of the nation’s great outdoor muse-ums. Creating Old World Wisconsin will enlighten and entertain museum visi-tors and will be essential reading for public history professionals.“ Michael E. Stevens, Wisconsin Historical Society

With its charming heirloom gardens, historic livestock breeds, and faithfully re- created farmsteads and villages that span nearly 600 acres, Old World Wisconsin is the largest outdoor museum of rural life in the United States. But this seemingly time-frozen landscape of rustic outbuildings and rolling wooded hills did not effortlessly spring into existence, as John D. Krugler shows in Creating Old World Wisconsin.

As dozens of historic buildings were transported in the 1970s from various locations throughout the state to the Kettle Moraine State Forest, researchers, curators, and volunteers launched a massive preservation initiative to salvage fast-disappearing immigrant and migrant architecture. They created a backdrop against which twenty-first-century interpreters demonstrate nineteenth- and early twentieth-century agricultural techniques and artisanal craftsmanship. The site, created and maintained by the Wisconsin Historical Society, offers visitors a unique opportunity to learn about the state’s rich and ethnically diverse past through depictions of the everyday lives of its Norwegian, Danish, Finnish, German, Polish, African American, and Yankee inhabitants.

Creating Old World Wisconsin chronicles the fascinating and complex origins of this outdoor museum, highlighting the struggles that faced its creators as they worked to achieve their vision. Even as Milwaukee architect and preservationist Richard W. E. Perrin, the Society’s staff, and enthusiastic volunteers opened the museum in time for the national bicentennial in 1976, the site was plagued by limited funds, bureaucratic tangles, and problems associated with gaining public support. By documenting the engaging story of the challenges, roadblocks, false starts, and achievements of the site’s founders, Krugler brings to life the history of the dedicated corps who collected and preserved Wisconsin’s diverse social history and heritage.

John D. Krugler is professor of early American history and public history at Marquette University. He is the author of English and Catholic: The Lords Balti-more in the Seventeenth Century. He lives in Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin.

Wisconsin TalkLinguistic Diversity in the Badger StateEdited by Thomas Purnell, Eric Raimy, and Joseph Salmons

Yah, it’s true! Wisconsin is one of the most linguistically interesting places in North America.

Wisconsin is one of the most linguistically rich places in North America. It has the greatest diversity of American Indian languages east of the Mississippi, including Ojibwe and Menominee from the Algonquian language family, Ho-Chunk from the Siouan family, and Oneida from the Iroquoian family. French place names dot the state’s map. German, Norwegian, and Polish—the languages of immigrants in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries—are still spoken by tens of thousands of people, and the influx of new immigrants speaking Spanish, Hmong, and Somali continues to enrich the state’s cultural landscape. These languages and others (Walloon, Cornish, Finnish, Czech, and more) have shaped the kinds of English spoken around the state. Within Wisconsin’s borders are found three different major dialects of American English, and despite the influences of mass media and popular culture, they are not merging—they are dramatically diverging.

An engaging survey for both general readers and language scholars, Wisconsin Talk brings together perspectives from linguistics, history, cultural studies, and geography to illuminate why language matters in our everyday lives. The authors highlight such topics as:

• words distinctive to the state• how recent and earlier immigrants have negotiated cultural and linguistic

challenges• the diversity of bilingual speakers that enriches our communities• how maps can convey the stories of language• the relation of Wisconsin’s Indian languages to language loss worldwide.

Thomas Purnell is associate professor of English at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, and his research examines the interface between phonetics and phonol-ogy with a focus on regional pronunciation. Eric Raimy is associate professor of English language and linguistics at the University of Wisconsin–Madison and is coeditor of Contemporary Views on Architecture and Representations in Phonology and Handbook of the Syllable.

Challenging the BardDostoevsky and Pushkin, a Study of Literary RelationshipGary Rosenshield

“A work of impressive quality that shows in detail how broad a shadow Russia’s supreme poet cast on those coming after.” David M. Bethea, series editor

When geniuses meet, something extraordinary happens, like lightning pro-duced from colliding clouds, observed Russian poet Alexander Blok. There is perhaps no literary collision more fascinating and deserving of study than the relationship between Alexander Pushkin (1799–1837), Russia’s greatest poet, and Fyodor Dostoevsky (1821–81), its greatest prose writer. In the twentieth century, Pushkin, “Russia’s Shakespeare,” became enormously influential, his literary successors universally acknowledging and venerating his achievements. In the nineteenth century, however, it was Dostoevsky more than any other Russian writer who wrestled with Pushkin’s legacy as cultural icon and writer. Though he idolized Pushkin in his later years, the younger Dostoevsky exhibited a much more contentious relationship with his eminent precursor.

In Challenging the Bard, Gary Rosenshield engages with the critical histories of these two literary titans, illuminating how Dostoevsky reacted to, challenged, adapted, and ultimately transformed the work of his predecessor Pushkin. Focus-ing primarily on Dostoevsky’s works through 1866—including Poor Folk, The Double, Mr. Prokharchin, The Gambler, and Crime and Punishment—Rosenshield observes that the younger writer’s way to literary greatness was not around Push-kin, but through him. By examining each literary figure in terms of the other, Rosenshield demonstrates how Dostoevsky both deviates from and honors the work of Pushkin. At its core, Challenging the Bard offers a unique perspective on the poetry of the master, Pushkin, the prose of his successor, Dostoevsky, and the nature of literary influence.

Gary Rosenshield, professor emeritus of Slavic languages and literature at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, is the author of many books, including Push-kin and the Genres of Madness and Western Law, Russian Justice, both published by the University of Wisconsin Press.

True Songs of FreedomUncle Tom’s Cabin in Russian Culture and SocietyJohn MacKay

“There is no work of scholarship that so thoroughly and confidently mea-sures Mrs. Stowe’s footprint on Russian political and intellectual life.” Dale Peterson, author of Up from Bondage: The Literatures of Russian and African American Soul

Harriet Beecher Stowe’s 1852 antislavery novel Uncle Tom’s Cabin was the nine-teenth century’s best-selling novel worldwide; only the Bible outsold it. It was known not only as a book but through stage productions, films, music, and com-mercial advertising as well. But how was Stowe’s novel—one of the watershed works of world literature—actually received outside of the American context?

True Songs of Freedom explores one vital sphere of Stowe’s influence: Russia and the Soviet Union, from the 1850s to the present day. Due to Russia’s own tradition of rural slavery, the vexed entwining of authoritarianism and political radicalism throughout its history, and (especially after 1945) its prominence as the super-power rival of the United States, Russia developed a special relationship to Stowe’s novel during this period of rapid societal change. Uncle Tom’s Cabin prompted widespread reflections on the relationship of Russian serfdom to American slav-ery, on the issue of race in the United States and at home, on the kinds of writing appropriate for children and peasants learning to read, on the political function of writing, and on the values of Russian educated elites who promoted, discussed, and fought over the book for more than a century. By the time of the Soviet Union’s collapse in 1991, Stowe’s novel was probably better known by Russians than by readers in any other country.

John MacKay examines many translations and rewritings of Stowe’s novel; plays, illustrations, and films based upon it; and a wide range of reactions to it by figures famous (Leo Tolstoy, Ivan Turgenev, Marina Tsvetaeva) and unknown. In track-ing the reception of Uncle Tom’s Cabin across 150 years, he engages with debates over serf emancipation and peasant education, early Soviet efforts to adapt Stowe’s deeply religious work of protest to an atheistic revolutionary value system, the novel’s exploitation during the years of Stalinist despotism, Cold War anti- Americanism and antiracism, and the postsocialist consumerist ethos.

John MacKay is professor of Slavic and East European languages and literatures and film studies and chair of the film studies program at Yale University. He is author of Inscription and Modernity: From Wordsworth to Mandelstam and editor and translator of Four Russian Serf Narratives.

Aeschylus’s Suppliant WomenThe Tragedy of immigrationGeoffrey W. Bakewell

Politics, sex, and refugees in the ancient world.

This book offers a provocative interpretation of a relatively neglected tragedy, Aeschylus’s Suppliant Women. Although the play’s subject is a venerable myth, it frames the flight of the daughters of Danaus from Egypt to Greece in starkly con-temporary terms, emphasizing the encounter between newcomers and natives. Some scholars read Suppliant Women as modeling successful social integration, but Geoffrey W. Bakewell argues that the play demonstrates, above all, the dif-ficulties and dangers noncitizens brought to the polis.

Bakewell’s approach is rigorously historical, situating Suppliant Women in the context of the unprecedented immigration that Athens experienced in the sixth and fifth centuries BCE. The flow of foreigners to Attika increased under the Pisistratids but became a flood following liberation, Cleisthenes, and the Persian Wars. As Athenians of the classical era became increasingly aware of their own collective identity, they sought to define themselves and exclude others. They created a formal legal status to designate the free noncitizens living among them, calling them metics and calling their status metoikia. When Aeschylus dramatized the mythical flight of the Danaids from Egypt in his play Suppliant Women, he did so in light of his own time and place. Throughout the play, directly and indi-rectly, he casts the newcomers as metics and their stay in Greece as metoikia.

Bakewell maps the manifold anxieties that metics created in classical Ath-ens, showing that although citizens benefited from the many immigrants in their midst, they also feared the effects of immigration in political, sexual, and economic realms. Bakewell finds metoikia was a deeply flawed solution to the problem of large-scale immigration. Aeschylus’s Argives accepted the Danaids as metics only under duress and as a temporary response to a crisis. Like the histori-cal Athenians, they opted for metoikia because they lacked better alternatives.

Geoffrey W. Bakewell is professor of Greek and Roman studies and director of the Search for Values in Light of Western History and Religion Program at Rhodes College in Memphis, Tennessee.

“Besides being one of our old-est plays, Suppliant Women is the first depiction, in any genre, of what happens when women flee-ing sexual violence in their home monarchy seek asylum in a nearby democracy. With his sensitivity to both philological and theatrical issues, his lovely clear style and sober, erudite judgment, Bakewell is an ideal guide through this uncannily resonant ‘tragedy of immigration.’” Jennifer Wise, Univer-sity of Victoria

Couched in DeathKlinai and identity in Anatolia and BeyondElizabeth P. Baughan

“A tour de force of meticulous research, broad reach, and thoughtful inter-pretation. Couched in Death will remain the definitive publication of klinai and kline tombs for decades to come.” Elspeth R.M. Dusinberre, author of Aspects of Empire in Achaemenid Sardis

In Couched in Death, Elizabeth P. Baughan offers the first comprehensive look at the earliest funeral couches in the ancient Mediterranean world. These sixth- and fifth-century BCE klinai from Asia Minor were inspired by specialty luxury furnishings developed in Archaic Greece for reclining at elite symposia. It was in Anatolia, however—in the dynastic cultures of Lydia and Phrygia and their neighbors—that klinai first gained prominence not as banquet furniture but as burial receptacles. For tombs, wooden couches were replaced by more perma-nent media cut from bedrock, carved from marble or limestone, or even cast in bronze. The rich archaeological findings of funerary klinai throughout Asia Minor raise intriguing questions about the social and symbolic meanings of this burial furniture. Why did Anatolian elites want to bury their dead on replicas of Greek furniture? Do the klinai found in Anatolian tombs represent Persian influ-ence after the conquest of Anatolia, as previous scholarship has suggested?

Bringing a diverse body of understudied and unpublished material together for the first time, Baughan investigates the origins and cultural significance of kline-burial and charts the stylistic development and distribution of funerary kli-nai throughout Anatolia. She contends that funeral couch burials and banqueter representations in funerary art helped construct hybridized Anatolian-Persian identities in Achaemenid Anatolia, and she reassesses the origins of the cus-tom of the reclining banquet itself, a defining feature of ancient Mediterranean civilizations. Baughan explores the relationships of Anatolian funeral couches with similar traditions in Etruria and Macedonia as well as their “afterlife” in the modern era, and her study also includes a comprehensive survey of evidence for ancient klinai in general, based on analysis of more than three hundred klinai representations on Greek vases as well as archaeological and textual sources.

Elizabeth P. Baughan is assistant professor of classics and archaeology at the University of Richmond. Since 2009 she has served as field supervisor for the Hacımusalar Höyük excavations in southwestern Turkey.

Ox Herding in WisconsinRichard Quinney

A guide to mindful living, inspired by the Buddhist parable of ox herding

This is a daybook inspired by the parable of ox herding, the search for one’s true self. For a long time, writers, artists, and students of Buddhism have found spiri-tual guidance in the herding of the ox. This metaphorical ox herding is a guide for a year of living and observing, arriving at awareness and understanding.

In Ox Herding in Wisconsin, Richard Quinney writes meditatively about his experiences of everyday life. In the course of the seasons of a year, he carefully notes the daily news, seasonal changes in nature, family history, personal health and aging, poetry and music, and spiritual development. The observations and writings of classical and contemporary writers enrich the book, offering insights and epiphanies for the Wisconsin ox herder. Illustrated with images both found and newly created, Ox Herding in Wisconsin provides sustenance for the contem-plative journey close to home.

i know the writing that is good and severe discipline. Many times writing has been for me about the only discipline i had or needed, and it was good. in the telling of the story—in the writing—i have been able to consider care-fully what i am experiencing in my life. Writing is a way to understand the experience, to learn from it, and a way to go on.

—excerpt from Ox Herding in Wisconsin

Richard Quinney is the author of several books that combine autobiographical writing and photography, including Journey to a Far Place, For the Time Being, Borderland, Where Yet the Sweet Birds Sing, A Lifetime Burning, and A Farm in Wisconsin. His retrospective book of photographs, Things Once Seen, received the August Derleth Award from the Council of Wisconsin Writers. He lives in Madison, Wisconsin.

Where Yet the Sweet Birds SingRichard Quinney“Quinney continues his search for mean-ing in an ordinary life, which he chroni-cled in Once Again the Wonder . . . but here his meditations are given urgency by the serious progression of his chronic lym-phocytic leukemia. Realizing that ‘life is more precious than we can ever imagine,’ he writes a moving journal of his odyssey through an uncertain year.”—Publishers Weekly
