Encyclopedia Britannica calls Ulysses: “Stylistically dense and exhilarating, it is generally regarded as a masterpiece and has been the subject of numerous volumes of commentary and analysis.” We've thrown that out the window and interpreted it in tap-dance.

This week it's a LARB Radio doubleheader. In the first half of the show, Kate Wolf talks with John Markoff about his latest book, Whole Earth: The Many Lives of Stewart Brand. Brand is probably best known as the creator of the Whole Earth Catalog, a countercultural magazine he published regularly between 1968 and 1972, and then infrequently up until 1998. With influences ranging from the Beat poets whom Brand met as a youth in San Francisco to his experimentation with LSD, the wisdom of indigenous cultures, and the philosophy of Buckminster Fuller, Whole Earth Catalog featured articles on sustainable living, ecology, and emerging technologies. As Markoff shows in his book, Brand — who's worked as a photographer, writer, political advisor, and environmental activist, among other things — is not an easy person to pin down. His sympathies have ranged from libertarianism to eco-pragmatism, which stresses “useful technologies,” including nuclear power. Brand is now 83 and Markoff's book is based on many years of interviews with him. In the second half of the show, Kate is joined by artist Ulysses Jenkins on the occasion of his first, long overdue retrospective, Without Your Interpretation, which runs until May 15th at the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles. Jenkins's career spans five decades and he's known especially for his pioneering video and performance art pieces, which often explore questions of race, multiculturalism, ritual, representation, and technology. Born in Los Angeles in 1946, Jenkins has been integral to the artistic evolution of the city, collaborating and forming collectives with many other important artists, including Senga Nengudi, Maren Hassinger, David Hammons, Nancy Buchanan, Harry Gamboa Jr., May Sun, and Kitt Galloway and Sherrie Rabinowitz.

Das Ulysses-Syndrom – es hat nichts mit dem Weltbestseller «Ulysses» von James Joyce zu tun. «Ulysses» heisst der griechische Irrfahrer Odysseus auf Englisch. Das Ulysses-Syndrom ist eine Krankheit, die zur Zeit vielen Menschen droht, nämlich denen, die auf der Flucht sind.

Welcome to Bloomcast, a ten-part plunge into James Joyce's Ulysses presented by Adam Biles, Alice McCrum, and Lex Paulson, live from Shakespeare and Company bookshop in Paris. Join them as they muddle through this radical, sublime, and often misunderstood novel first published one hundred years ago, in 1922. In episode five, Lex regales the group with song as he unpicks the musicality of the Sirens episode, Alice ponders the relationship between music and alcohol, and Adam makes the case for Bloom and Chaplin's Tramp being long-lost siblings.

To prepare to grow grapes and make wines from Bell Mountain, Ames worked in enological and production capacities at several Napa and Sonoma wineries as well as studied viticulture and enology at the University of California at Davis. Having over 20 years of experience of growing grapes at Bell Mountain, Ames looks to the future and the next 20 years of what wines will grow best there.In 2021 and after 19 years as Winemaker, Ames Morison shifted his focus to Medlock Ames' strategic sustainability goals and being an outspoken educator to mitigate climate change.

James Augustine Aloysius Joyce (2 February 1882 – 13 January 1941) was an Irish novelist, short story writer, poet, and literary critic. He contributed to the modernist avant-garde movement and is regarded as one of the most influential and important writers of the 20th century. Joyce's novel Ulysses (1922) is a landmark in which the episodes of Homer's Odyssey are paralleled in a variety of literary styles, most famously stream of consciousness. Other well-known works are the short-story collection Dubliners (1914), and the novels A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (1916) and Finnegans Wake (1939). His other writings include three books of poetry, a play, letters, and occasional journalism.Bio via Wikipedia See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

In this episode, Dinesh reviews the claim that Zelensky knows best what's good for his country and makes the case that we need to know what's good for ours.  Dinesh explores whether the Ukraine conflict will end up weakening both Russia and the global imperialists of the West. Debbie joins Dinesh to talk about the multiracial complexion of today's GOP.  Dinesh reveals the real reason the Left is so angry about parents getting involved in their children's education.  Dinesh shows why Ulysses--hero of Homer's "Odyssey"--belongs in the circle of fraud in the depths of Dante's hell.

Dinesh asks what Ulysses--also called Odysseus, the hero of Homer's "Odyssey"--is doing in Dante's hellish circle of fraud. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week, your hosts Steve Lowry and Yvonne Godfrey interview Randall Sorrels and Alexandra Farias-Sorrels of Sorrels Law (https://sorrelllawfirm.com/)   Remember to rate and review GTP on iTunes: Click Here To Rate and Review   Case Details: Husband-and-wife trial team Randall Sorrels and Alexandra Farias-Sorrels of Sorrels Law share how they secured justice for an airline wing walker who was struck by a fueling truck and catastrophically injured. On September 7, 2019, Ulysses Cruz donned his yellow vest and held bright orange wands to guide a United Airlines plane when Allied Aviation Fueling Company truck driver Reginald Willis struck Ulysses with the vehicle. Ulysses was paralyzed on impact, underwent spine stabilization surgery and suffered an accident-related stroke that affected the right side of his body and the left side of his brain. In the courtroom, award-winning trial lawyers Randall and Alexandra Sorrels sparred against the defense attorney, who attempted to place blame on United Airlines and to label Ulysses as a wing walker with a lack of "situational awareness." The Sorrels Law duo countered with proof that Reginald Willis violated Allied Aviation Fueling Company's policies by continuing to drive while blinded by the sun. On October 25, 2021, a Harris County, Texas jury found Allied Aviation Fueling Company 70% responsible and driver Reginald Willis 30% responsible for the accident and awarded Ulysses Cruz and his family a $352.77 million verdict, which is believed to be the largest actual damages verdict in U.S. history for an injured worker.    Click Here to Read/Download the Complete Trial Documents Guest Bios: Randy Sorrel Randy Sorrels holds the unique distinction of being the only Texas board-certified plaintiffs' lawyer ever to have been elected to serve as President of the State Bar of Texas and selected as one of the Top 100 lawyers in the state by Texas Super Lawyers magazine. His passionate representation of clients and lawyers has garnered statewide recognition and numerous prestigious awards. Randy and his partner/wife obtained what is believed to be the largest actual damages verdict in United States' history for an injured worker — $352.7 million – in a fully contested jury trial. In short, whether it is in the courtroom or in the boardroom, Randy has an unparalleled track record of success for his clients and the organizations he leads. As a leader, Randy was voted by Texas lawyers to become the 2019-2020 State Bar President by the widest margin of victory in State Bar history. During his presidential service, he traveled Texas solidifying his reputation for helping not only those who hire him, but also helping fellow lawyers. His network of friends and relationships throughout the state is vast, and he is often hired by lawyers who are in need of representation. As a zealot advocate for his clients, Randy holds four board certifications including in Personal Injury Trial Law, Civil Trial Law and Civil Trial Advocacy from the Texas Board of Legal Specialization and the National Board of Trial Advocacy. And in a peer selection process, for the last 14 years he has been named one of the Top 100 lawyers in the state. He is sought after by the nationwide and local media for legal analysis, commentary and perspective. Randy's success in the courtroom is also well-known throughout Texas and the nation. He has taken dozens of cases to trial, securing multi-million-dollar verdicts in personal injury cases, medical malpractice cases, plant explosion cases and business lawsuits. During the time of Covid, Randy and the Sorrels Law team secured two of the largest personal injury jury verdicts in the country in high-profile cases that received media attention worldwide. In one of the cases, the jury returned an actual damages verdict of $352.7 million for an injured worker who suffered catastrophic injuries, while in the other the jury awarded two minor league baseball players $3.24 million. For 2022, Randy has been named the Best Lawyers® Personal Injury – Plaintiffs “Lawyer of the Year” in Houston, and has been named the Best Lawyers' Medical Malpractice Law – Plaintiffs “Lawyer of the Year” in Houston on three separate occasions. He has received some of the highest legal honors in the state, including being awarded the State Bar of Texas President's Award (recognizing the one Texas Lawyer who provided the most outstanding contributions through distinguished service to the lawyers of Texas), the Judge Sam Williams Award (recognizing the Texas lawyer who provides the greatest contribution to both local bars and the State Bar of Texas), and the Houston Bar Association President's Award (recognizing significant contributions to an HBA program). Early in his career, Randy was honored with the Woodrow B. Seals Outstanding Young Lawyer of Houston Award (recognizing the one young Houston lawyer who exemplified significant professional traits both inside and outside the practice of law). He started his career as a lawyer at the internationally acclaimed Fulbright & Jaworski (now Norton Rose Fulbright). Read Full Bio   Alex Farias-Sorrels Alex Farias-Sorrels is a passionate litigator, who left “Big-Law” to pursue her desire to help people who have been wrongly injured. She treats her clients like family and handles every aspect of her cases as if she were handling them for her own mother, father, sister, or brother. A Latina, native Houstonian, and bilingual lawyer, Alex is proud to bring a woman's touch to personal injury law. Alex attended both undergrad (2007) and law school (2010) at the University of Miami in Coral Gables, graduating with honors.  While graduating in the top 10% of her law school class, Alex also interned for the appellate division of the U.S. Attorney's office in Houston and for Legal Services of Greater Miami. After law school, as part of a fellowship program, Alex served as a full-time law clerk for U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Jeff Bohm for a year.  At the same time, and on a part-time basis, she received her first exposure to plaintiffs' work at a respected personal injury law firm in Houston where she handled personal injury cases and business disputes.  In her second year of practice, she worked as a briefing attorney for the Supreme Court of Texas, clerking for Justice David Medina. There, she assisted the Court in assessing complex state law issues and also helped draft the Court's opinions. After her term at the Court, Alex joined the international law firm Morgan, Lewis & Bockius, a Philadelphia-based firm with over 2,200 lawyers worldwide.  Alex practiced in the firm's Houston litigation section and focused mostly on complex commercial cases and insurance recovery cases.  She also handled products liability and personal injury cases, including aircraft crashes.  She served as first-chair counsel in more than ten trials, and was often called on to assist on thorny appellate issues.  Alex's largest victory came in an arbitration award, as she was instrumental in securing an almost $300 million arbitration award on behalf of a major Fortune 500 company on a fraudulent transfer claim.   Alex and her husband Randy Sorrels have a young son, Houston Alexander, who is bilingual, and keeps them busy when they are not working.  They also have two rescue dogs – Gio and Luna.  Alex is active in the bar, currently serving as a board member on both the Texas Bar Foundation and the Houston Young Lawyers Foundation.

Season III of Irish Stew concludes with our conversation with a very Global Irish citizen, Dan Mulhall, Ireland's Ambassador to the United States and your guide to one of the classics of Irish literature through his recently published Ulysses: A Reader's Odyssey.Join us as we tour the world with one of Ireland's top diplomats as he wields Ireland's soft power and uses Ireland's culture to open doors and strengthen ties.And from one diplomatic posting to the next, he lugged one weighty tome, James Joyce's Ulysses, a literary classic he'll turn to repeatedly, finally writing Ulysses, a Reader's Odyssey his highly personal guidebook through the novel's often difficult terrain, highlighting central character Leopold Bloom as an “ambassador for our day.” We touch on Ireland's ability to build bridges among countries, its seat on the UN Security Council as Russian troops massed on Ukraine's border, the global admiration for Ireland's peacekeeping forces, and telling Ireland's story in the US to officials on both sides of the aisle, and always come back to how culture is Ireland's passport to the world today.Along the way Dan favors us with a reading from Ulysses paired with a passage from his book that explores that section. The episode ends with a special treat, part of the closing chapter of Ulysses, “Molly Bloom's Soliloquy,” brilliantly performed by actress Aedín Maloney, well known for her interpretation of this piece.NB: This episode was recorded on Feb 3, 2022 almost three weeks before Russia's invasion of Ukraine   Sadly the hope of reducing the then building Ukrainian border tensions did not come to pass.Dan Mulhall LinksBiography at the Department of Foreign AffairsTwitterUlysses: A Reader's Odyssey book linksNew Island Books AmazonTwitterEmbassy of Ireland USA: TwitterAedin Maloney LinksTwitterFallen Angel Theatre Company

Welcome to Bloomcast, a ten-part plunge into James Joyce's Ulysses presented by Adam Biles, Alice McCrum, and Lex Paulson, live from Shakespeare and Company bookshop in Paris. Join them as they muddle through this radical, sublime, and often misunderstood novel first published one hundred years ago, in 1922. In episode four they begin by responding to a listener's request to cast the Ulysses movie, then head to the Irish National Library to dissect Stephen's Hamlet lecture and discuss whether you can separate the art from the artist, before returning to the streets of early-20th-century Dublin to question why Joyce might have considered it a “hostile environment”. Please share your thoughts on the book and anything you'd like to hear us discuss: ulysses@shakespeareandcompany.com A student of environmental policy at Sciences Po-Paris, Alice McCrum runs programming at the American Library in Paris. In between fits of Joycean nerdery, Dr. Lex Paulson is Executive Director of the School of Collective Intelligence at Université Mohammed VI Polytechnique in Morocco. An adopted Parisian, he teaches at Sciences Po-Paris and writes on the past and future of democracy. Adam Biles is Literary Director at Shakespeare and Company, Paris. He is the author of the novel Feeding Time, available in French as Défense de nourrir les vieux. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

La France a la Révolution française, l'Amérique, la guerre de Sécession. Deux guerres civiles dans un pays qui se (re)définit, deux débats historiographiques, deux querelles idéologiques fondées souvent sur une appréhension simpliste des évènements, deux fresques en couleur, idéales pour inspirer la littérature, la peinture, le cinéma. Si on oppose souvent les héros du bien et de la liberté au Nord, et les riches esclavagistes au Sud, il y a quelques années le Sud avait l'héroïsme et le romantisme de son côté (en témoigne par exemple le succès extraordinaire du roman puis du film « Autant en emporte le vent »). Une autre lecture manichéenne des évènements, qui prend de l'importance aujourd'hui, tend à réduire les causes et les enjeux du conflit à la question de l'esclavage et des rapports de domination entre les Blancs et les Afro-Américains. Face à cette difficulté, Vincent Bernard nous propose une lecture chronologique et factuelle de la guerre la plus meurtrière des Etats-Unis. Quand commence véritablement le conflit ? Comment les armées sont-elles recrutées ? Quels sont les grands fronts du combat ? Comment les Afro-Américains ont-ils œuvré pour leur propre émancipation ? Pourquoi ne doit-on pas réduire la guerre de Sécession à une lutte "pour" ou "contre" l'esclavage ? Au delà de la question de l'esclavage, la guerre de Sécession oppose surtout deux modes de vie et deux visions des États-Unis. Vincent Bernard est l'invité de Mari-Gwenn Carichon. Notre invité : Vincent Bernard est historien, spécialiste de la guerre de Sécession et rédacteur en chef adjoint de la revue Guerres & Histoire est auteur de deux biographies de grandes figures de la guerre de Sécession : Ulysses.S Grant, l'étoile du Nord (Perrin, 2018), Robert.E Lee, la légende sudiste (Perrin, 2014) ainsi que d'un essai Le sud pouvait il gagner la guerre de Secession ? (2017). La guerre de Sécession, la "grande guerre" américaine (1861-1865) est publié aux éditions Passés-Composés (448 pages, 24 €).

Synopsis On today's date in the year 2000, the Royal Danish Opera in Copenhagen gave the premiere of a new opera entitled “The Handmaid's Tale,” based on the dystopian novel by Canadian writer Margaret Atwood. The book and opera tell of a nightmarish future: following a nuclear disaster in the United States, infertility rates have soared, and a religious sect has staged a military coup, enslaving the few fertile women who remain as breeders, or “handmaids,” for the military and religious commanders of their sect. Says Atwood, "There is nothing new about the society I depicted in The Handmaid's Tale except the time and place. All of the things I have written about have been done before – more than once, in fact." Despite its grim subject matter, Danish composer Poul Ruders says he saw "huge operatic potential" when he first read the book back in 1992. The original production in Copenhagen was sung in Danish, but Ruders says he conceived the work in English. The opera was staged in that language first in London at the English National Opera, and subsequently, at the opera's American premiere, in St. Paul by The Minnesota Opera, to great critical acclaim.

In our Season 5 wrap-up, we try to stir up a little controversy amongst Yr Worships's favorite book commies by rerunning Pilgrim's Progress as a series of debates about the Greatest Hits (™) from past pods. A fierce argument breaks out over whether we have to lose Tristram Shandy or Ulysses from our boat to make it through the Slough of Despond – until we remember some jackass put a crate of Lady Chatterley's Lover in the hold. Which Season 5 failchild will we use as a life raft? (Pierre, obv., he's pretty and buoyant what with entirely lacking a brain.) But never fear, we come together and make it to the Celestial City. Of communism. We're off for a couple months, comrades, but will see you in the spring for Season 6!

Khổng Tử được xem như một nhà hiền triết mẫu mực nhất của Trung Quốc. Tư tưởng giáo dục của ông không những có tác dụng to lớn trong lịch sử mà vẫn còn nguyên giá trị cho đến ngày nay. Trong các học thuyết của mình, ông luôn đề cao việc học tập không ngừng để liên tục rèn luyện và hoàn thiện bản thân. Tuy nhiên, trong 8 bước học làm người của Khổng Tử, hầu hết chúng ta đều chỉ biết đến 4 bước sau là Tu thân, Tề gia, Trị quốc, Bình thiên hạ, chứ không biết đến 4 bước đầu là Cách vật, Trí Tri, Thành Ý, Chính Tâm. Việc chỉ biết ngọn mà không biết gốc này dẫn đến những hiểu nhầm, hiểu sai, mà từ đó tạo ra những vấn đề, những mất cân bằng, mất định hướng trong cuộc sống. Trong số đầu tiên của Podcast On Balance, mời các bạn cùng theo dõi cuộc trò chuyện giữa Host Lương Ngọc Tiên và khách mời là Tiến sĩ - Chuyên gia Tâm lý Trần Hữu Đức. Qua việc tìm hiểu rõ hơn về 8 bước học làm người của Khổng Tử, chúng ta có thể rút ra cho mình những bài học riêng về chuyện sửa mình, cách đánh giá sự vật, sự việc, đối nhân xử thế cũng như việc dụng tâm trong đời sống thường nhật để cuộc sống được an lạc, cân bằng và hạnh phúc hơn. Về TS Trần Hữu Đức: Ông là người đã có trên 20 năm kinh nghiệm trong lĩnh vực quản trị và tư vấn Nguồn nhân lực, từng làm việc tại các tập đoàn lớn như PepsiCo Việt Nam, UNZA, RIM Technologies, Ulysses, Dược PHANO… Ông hiện là Đồng sáng lập, Chuyên viên Tư vấn, Huấn luyện Cấp cao, Trị liệu Tâm lý và Đào tạo Kỹ năng sống tại BCC và Better Living.
