Russell Krabill's church membership study for young believers. This pupil book is a workbook with 12 lessons for 12 weeks of work.

Antonin Artaud is probably the single greatest force on the contemporary stage. In this harrowing play, Charles Marowitz draws on exclusive material obtained from friends and confidantes, depicting a series of imaginary scenes based upon the true incidents of Artaud's life and his incarceration as a madman in the asylum at Rodez. Using Artaud's own Theatre of Cruelty techniques Marowitz tells what is perhaps the cruelest story of all: the way in which society methodically destroys the maverick artist who attempts to defy it. Also included in this edition are exclusive interviews with leading avant-garde figures such as Roger Blin and Arthur Adamov as well as first-hand testimony from Artaud's own psychiatrist, Dr Gaston Ferdiere and Artaud's sister, Marie-Ange Malaussena.

"The first biography of this important American Indian artist"

Artist, teacher, and Red Progressive, Angel De Cora (1869-1919) painted "Fire Light" to capture warm memories of her Nebraska Winnebago childhood. In this biography, Linda M. Waggoner draws on that glowing image to illuminate De Cora's life and artistry, which until now have been largely overlooked by scholars.

One of the first American Indian artists to be accepted within the mainstream art world, De Cora left her childhood home on the Winnebago reservation to find success in the urban Northeast at the turn of the twentieth century. Despite scant documentary sources that elucidate De Cora's private life, Waggoner has rendered a complete picture of the woman known in her time as the first "real Indian artist." She depicts De Cora as a multifaceted individual who as a young girl took pride in her traditions, forged a bond with the land that would sustain her over great distances, and learned the role of cultural broker from her mother's Metis family.

After studying with famed illustrator Howard Pyle at his first Brandywine summer school, De Cora eventually succeeded in establishing the first "Native Indian" art department at Carlisle Indian School. A founding member of the Society of American Indians, she made a significant impact on the American Arts and Crafts movement by promoting indigenous arts throughout her career.

Waggoner brings her broad knowledge of Winnebago culture and history to this gracefully written book, which features more than forty illustrations. "Fire Light" shows us both a consummate artist and a fully realized woman, who learned how to traverse the borders of Red identity in a white man's world.

Since 1993, Smith/Stewart have produced collaborative works that involve their bodies in a series of sensorially heightened communicative actions. In works such as Dead Red and Breathing Space, the artists' own bodies have become material for artistic practice and are subjected to a whole array of experiments that mine the experience of communication. This book documents the work and includes two original essays analysing their achievements.
