Rainer Maria Rilke's poems creatively expressed ideas that are hard to put into words, and his writings on the work of sculptor Auguste Rodin glorified their skill at creating tiny surfaces that reflect light to bring sculptures to life. The poet's apparent hero worship of Rodin's sculpting talents is of great interest to Dr Nicholas Reynolds, a Lecturer in Modern Languages and Literatures at Trinity University, Texas.  But it was a turbulent relationship that led to a final break in 1913, which echoes one of Rilke's prose stories that suggests that two masters cannot be in the same room. Read the original chapter: https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-74470-0_7Listen to more about Dr Reynolds work in a previous episode here

The Austrian poet and writer, Rainer Maria Rilke, explored many powerful and emotive themes, making one consider life, experience, reality and much more.  In his monograph on the writings of Rilke, Dr Nicholas Reynolds, from Trinity University in San Antonio, explores the themes of sound and memory, and subsequently posits a theory of how artists tap into their subconscious in their creative process. Read Dr Reynolds' original research: doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-74470-0_2

For businesses, climate action is no longer simply a question of environmental compliance and corporate responsibility. Today it is a matter of business value and competitiveness. Businesses that do not address their climate impacts will increasingly get left behind by consumers, investors, and talent. Most businesses recognise these imperatives but simply do not know where to start. The task is complicated by an overabundance of target setting frameworks, climate pledges, policies, and commercial offerings. In this episode of Ibec Responds we hear from Conor Minogue, Ibec Senior Executive for Infrastructure, Energy and Climate Policy, about the new 'Climate Action: A toolkit for business', developed by Ibec in collaboration with Accenture, and how it can help businesses develop a best-practice climate action strategy and avoid common pitfalls like greenwashing. We also talk to Nicholas Reynolds, Sustainability Manager with O'Brien Fine Foods and Caoimhe Donnelly, Chief Sustainability Officer with CIE, who share their experience developing climate action strategies, and setting emission reduction targets. The Toolkit can be accessed here. Thank you for listening. To explore all of Ibec's podcast offering, visit here. Make sure to follow Ibec Podcasts to stay up to date with new episodes.

In this episode, former CIA historian and author Nicholas Reynolds discusses his recently released book "Need to Know: World War II and the Rise of American Intelligence" which details the birth of the first American spy service and the role of the original US codebreakers. Dr. Reynolds also reveals how WWII histories are researched and written and examines their continuing popularity. Recorded 11 Oct 2022. Interviewer: Jim Hughes, AFIO President and former CIA Operations Officer. 

American intelligence services like the CIA are commonly thought of as global behemoths of international surveillance and covert operations, responsible for carrying out everything from cyber espionage to assassinations and political coups. But its origins in the Second World War paint a picture of a very different kind of intelligence agency, operating on a smaller scale, and with very different goals. We are joined by historian Nicholas Reynolds, who has in his time been a marine and an employee of the CIA, who will guide us through the birth and growth of the agency, and tackle some of the most persistent conspiracy theories that surround it along the way.Produced by Mariana Des Forges and edited by Joseph Knight.If you'd like to learn more, we have hundreds of history documentaries, ad-free podcasts and audiobooks at History Hit - subscribe to History Hit today!To download the History Hit app please go to the Android or Apple store.

Today I speak with historian and former CIA officer Nicholas Reynolds about his recent book Need to Know: World War II and the Rise of American Intelligence. The entire vast, modern American intelligence system—the amalgam of three-letter spy services of many stripes—can be traced back to the dire straits the world faced at the dawn of World War II. Prior to 1940, the United States had no organization to recruit spies and steal secrets or launch covert campaigns against enemies overseas and just a few codebreakers, isolated in windowless vaults. It was only through Winston Churchill's determination to mobilize the US in the fight against Hitler that the first American spy service was born, built from scratch against the background of the Second World War. In Need to Know, Nicholas Reynolds explores the birth, infancy, and adolescence of modern American intelligence. In this first-ever look across the entirety of the war effort, Reynolds combines little-known history and gripping spy stories to analyze the origins of American codebreakers and spies as well as their contributions to Allied victory, revealing how they laid the foundation for the Cold War—and beyond.

Former Marine and CIA employee Nicholas Reynolds joins The Engel Angle to talk to Mac about his new book, "Need to Know: World War II and the Rise of American Intelligence." Reynolds is a CIA historian and former curator at the CIA Museum. How did the CIA start, what was its original function, and is it still an effective agency? That, and Mac admits that even though he hates stuff, he has too much of it.

We delve into the history and rise of American intelligence operations with Nicholas Reynolds, an historian, former CIA officer, and author of Need to Know: World War II and the Rise of American Intelligence.

In the United States, a highly organized intelligence system did not exist before World War II.  Our geographic isolation meant spying on our enemies or our allies was a relatively rare, often haphazard undertaking.  But as Nicholas Reynolds details in his new book, “Need to Know: World War II and the Rise of American Intelligence”, that national restraint gave way during the war to an extraordinary intricate web of spying which, postwar, would grow into our modern intelligence machine. Newt's guest is Nicholas Reynolds.  He is The New York Times bestselling author of  “Writer, Sailor, Soldier, Spy” and has worked in the fields of modern intelligence and military history for 40 years. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

An old divide in the study of innovation is whether ideas come primarily from individual/group creativity, or whether they are “in the air”, so that anyone with the right set of background knowledge will be able to see them. In this episode, I look at how much redundancy there is in innovation: if the discoverer of some idea had failed to find it, would someone else have figured it out later?This podcast is an audio read through of the (initial draft of the) post How common is independent discovery?, originally published on New Things Under the Sun.Articles Mentioned:Ogburn, William F., and Dorothy Thomas. 1922.

In this episode, we welcome Nicholas Reynolds, author of Writer, Sailor, Soldier, Spy: Ernest Hemingway's Secret Adventures, 1935-1961, to discuss Hemingway's politics and involvement in espionage and intelligence. Why was the Labor Day hurricane of 1935 Hemingway's political genesis point? How and why was he recruited by the Soviet NKVD? What was his involvement, beyond the role of war correspondent, during WWII? Reynolds, a former Marine colonel and intelligence officer who has served as the historian at the CIA Museum, explores these and other topics as we investigate Hemingway's preternatural intelligence-gathering ability, his growing paranoia during the later years, and the way his writing reflects his involvement in these "secret adventures."

Povestea vieții secrete a lui Hemingway ca spion prezentată pentru prima dată într-un volum scris în baza unei cercetări temeinice de ultimă oră în arhivele serviciilor secrete americane și sovietice. O întâlnire cu Cristian Preda și Tatiana Niculescu despre „Scriitor, marinar, soldat, spion Aventurile secrete ale lui Ernest Hemingway, 1935–1961“ de Nicholas Reynolds. O carte fascinantă și extrem de bine documentată în care istoricul american Nicholas Reynolds scoate la lumină pentru prima dată întreaga poveste a acestei laturi secrete din viața lui Hemingway: recrutarea sa de către NKVD, precursorul KGB. Fost ofițer CIA și istoric la Muzeul CIA, Nicholas Reynolds dezvăluie povestea vieții secrete a romancierului câștigător al Premiului Nobel, Ernest Hemingway, ca spion atât pentru americani, cât și pentru sovietici, înainte, în timpul și după Al Doilea Război Mondial. „Pornind de la pregătirea sa de agent de informații, Nicholas Reynolds descoperă un tezaur de documente care dovedesc recrutarea romancierului american în 1940 de către NKVD. Reynolds cercetează cu desăvârșită competență aventurile din Al Doilea Război Mondial ale lui Hemingway.“ — Library Journal „Nicholas Reynolds, fost curator al Muzeului CIA, demonstrează că lui Heminway îi era teamă că FBI-ul ar fi putut descoperi un secret murdar pe care-l ascunsese timp de douăzeci de ani: în anul 1940 acceptase să colaboreze cu NKVD, organul de represiune al Uniunii Sovietice.“ — Wall Street Journal „Admirator al lui Hemingway toată viața mea, am simțit ca și cum aș fi primit din plin o lovitură în stomac când am citit că semnase colaborarea cu NKVD. Cum era posibil? Întotdeauna avusese mulți prieteni de stânga, dar nu subscrisese niciodată la comunism (sau la vreo altă ideologie). Personajele create de el întruchipau atâtea dintre valorile americane pe care încă le prețuim: adevărul, curajul, independența, rezistența în momente de presiune, apărarea celor în nevoie. Vocea sa era în mod atât de americană și de revoluționară. Schimbase cursul literaturii americane în anii '20. Cu câteva săptămâni înainte de a intra în relație cu NKVD, spre sfârșitul anilor '40, publicase unul dintre cele mai importante romane politice ale secolului, Pentru cine bat clopotele. De ce să se alăture un astfel de om acoliților lui Stalin?“ — NICHOLAS REYNOLDS

My first guest on the Tami Jackson Show* tonight will be Arthur Herman. Dr. Arthur Herman (Ph.D. Johns Hopkins, 1985) is the author of the New York Times bestseller How the Scots Invented the Modern World, which has sold a half million copies worldwide, and Gandhi and Churchill, which was a 2009 finalist for the Pulitzer Prize. His six other books include To Rule the Waves: How the British Navy Shaped the Modern World, which was nominated for the UK's prestigious Mountbatten Maritime Prize; Freedom's Forge, named by the Economist as one of the Best Books of 2012; and Douglas MacArthur: American Warrior. He is currently a Senior Fellow at the Hudson Institute in Washington, DC. Educated at the University of Minnesota and Johns Hopkins University in history and classics, Dr. Herman is a frequent contributor on defense, energy, and technology issues to Commentary magazine, the New York Post, National Review, and the Wall Street Journal. He was also the first non-British citizen to be named to the Scottish Arts Council from 2007 to 2009. Listen as Arthur Herman and I talk about his brand new book, 1917: Lenin, Wilson, and the Birth of the New World Disorder. Covered in 1917: President Woodrow Wilson's idea to create a world “safe for democracy” ultimately failed as the world's most powerful dictatorship rose from the ashes of World War I - the Soviet Union. While his idealism was well-intentioned it established the United States as the “world's policeman,” paving the way for later U.S. mishaps in Vietnam and Iraq. Simultaneous to Wilson's moves on the world stage, Vladimir Lenin executed both his plan to reshape the world in his Marxist image and all those who opposed it. In the name of “liberating humanity,” Lenin overthrew Russia's post-czar democratic revolution with his own murderous dictatorship. The world Wilson and Lenin created still affects our politics and the international order we see today. Without Wilson's League of Nations, we would not have the supranational United Nations we know today nor would we have Moscow and Beijing as the epicenters of power in the East. It is these men that have set the stage for the international adversaries that dominate foreign policy a century later. Nicholas Reynolds, author of Writer, Sailor, Soldier, Spy: Ernest Hemingway's Secret Adventures, 1935-1961, notes: Arthur Herman's parallel biography of Lenin and Wilson will make the reader stop and think — about the great man theory of history and the cataclysmic events of 1917. Analyzing their legacies, Herman issues a clarion call for us to cast a wary eye on ideologues who want to remake the world, in 2017 as in 1917. This will be fascinating as Arthur and I talk history and philosophy -- Wilson was a prominent Progressive (Socialist) and it's critical that Americans to understand the roots of Socialism, Marxism, and Progressivism, and the role they played in WWI. ********************** In the second 1/2 hour my guest will be Stephen Strang. Stephen E. Strang is an award-winning journalist and successful businessman who began his career as a newspaper reporter at the Orlando Sentinel before founding a Christian publishing house and media company. Strang has interviewed and written about nearly every Christian leader in the country over the past four decades. He is author of the book, God and Donald Trump. He joined other Christian leaders who campaigned for Trump's election. As written in the front cover: Donald Trump is an enigma, a brash self-promoter, casino owner, and a man of the world. Yet he is also a devoted husband and father who has surrounded himself with men and women of faith and has made religion a key component of his image. God and Donald Trump is a powerful first-person account of one of the most contentious elections in American history, with exclusive interviews and insightful commentary from the men and women who were there. Strang remarks: Most evangelical Christians did not support Donald Trump when he announced he was running for President in 2015. Why should they have? He had made a fortune in gambling. He was thrice married, and he was known to use some pretty salty language at times—hardly the model politician the religious right could enthusiastically support. As it turned out, however, most evangelicals did get behind him in the 2016 election, giving Trump 82 percent of the evangelical vote—reportedly the highest percentage ever. Since then his support from the Christian community has remained steady. Stephen Strang is CEO of Charisma Media and founder of Charisma magazine. Charisma Media also publishes Ministry Today, the Spanish magazine Vida Cristiana and Christian Retailing. Steve and I will discuss Donald Trump and HOW he won 82% of the evangelical vote and what role faith now plays in his administration.

But despite the gazillion words written about Hemingway now comes new insight into one of the most famous lives in literature. In his new book WRITER, SAILOR, SOLDIER, SPY Nicholas Reynold's reveals a secret that during World War II, Hemingway became a spy for Soviet intelligence and tried to spy for the U.S., too. While he was the historian at the CIA Museum, Reynolds, a longtime CIA officer, former Marine colonel, and Oxford-trained historian, began to discover tantalizing clues that suggested Hemingway's involvement in World War II-era intelligence work was much more complex and fraught with risks than has been previously understood. He brings the secret to life for the first time -- Hemingway's recruitment by Soviet spies in the NKVD (the forerunner to the KGB) followed by relationships with the US Department of State, the Office of Naval Intelligence, and the American OSS (the precursor to the CIA) —to say nothing of his long-running conflict with the FBI.For 166 years, THE NEW YORK TIMES has been a rich source of information about CRIME, its reporters racing alongside tabloids to track the shocking incidents that disrupt daily life.

Writer Sailor Soldier Spy...Yes Ernest Hemingway was all of those things and more. Nick Reynolds carefully paints the picture of a Hemingway that most of us probably never knew existed. Writer Sailor Soldier Spy: The Adventures Of Ernest Hemingway is a very fun read about a man with many interests, many gifts and talents, a man who lived a very full life until the age of 61 when he committed suicide as his father had done years earlier. Almost exactly 35 years after Ernest Hemingway's death, on July 1, 1996, his granddaughter Margaux Hemingway died in Santa Monica, California. Margaux was a supermodel and an actress, who co-starred with her younger sister Mariel in the movie Lipstick. Her death too was later ruled a suicide, making her "the fifth person in four generations of her family to commit suicide.
