A segment at the beginning of the book, supposedly information received from around the country by someone researching the real history behind the ballad, indicates that it is probably nearly impossible to determine the facts of John Henry’s story with any degree of accuracy. ![]() These auxiliary stories are woven tightly in among the main narrative passages to enhance the meditations offered on the importance of folk heroes in general and John Henry in particular. Many, but not all of these auxiliary stories feature people who have some relationship to one of the variations of the John Henry ballad. But there are also fragments of other stories included – some rather long, others very short. ![]() The other is the story of a young reporter, J. One is the author’s rendition of the story of John Henry himself.

For Plumwood, the challenge is to reanimate matter, to help humans see the intentionality and agency of nonhuman nature. The problem is that humans have long ignored this nonhuman intelligence, with massive ecological consequences that threaten not only the future of nonhuman nature, but the future of humans, too. Nature, Plumwood argues, is not passive, subject to human mastery, but instead holds its own species-specific forms of intelligence, communication, and consciousness. IN HER 2009 ARTICLE “Nature in the Active Voice,” the late environmental philosopher Val Plumwood calls for a “thorough and open rethink” of the way we - humans - represent nonhuman nature. ![]() ![]() As he writes in his introduction: “What are today’s greatest challenges and most important changes? What should we pay attention to? What should we teach our kids?” ![]() It’s to know which things to worry about, and how much to worry about them. The trick for putting an end to our anxieties, he suggests, is not to stop worrying. While his previous best sellers, “Sapiens” and “Homo Deus,” covered the past and future respectively, his new book is all about the present. In his fascinating new book, “21 Lessons for the 21st Century,” the historian Yuval Noah Harari creates a useful framework for confronting these fears. Although most of us don’t need to lose too much sleep over bears these days, modern life does present plenty of other reasons for concern: terrorism, climate change, the rise of A.I., encroachments on our privacy, even the apparent decline of international cooperation. This is not necessarily a bad thing - after all, if a bear is stalking you, worrying about it may well save your life. ![]() 21 LESSONS FOR THE 21ST CENTURY By Yuval Noah Harari 372 pp. ![]() ![]() an excellent guide to topping, both for the rank novice and for the player who just wants words to put to all the thoughts and feelings that have resisted categorization." - Laura Antoniou, Sandmutopian Guardian.

The lighting is low and each work is spotlight whilst besuited security guards add to the feeling of entering a major London Museum rather than a west end gallery. This is a hugely impressive, state of the art space and Brown’s classical themes and inspirations are well suited to this gallery’s wooden floors and dark walls as opposed to the cliched concrete floored white cubes found in most commercial spaces nearby. Glenn Brown’s latest show, amazingly his first major UK one since 2009, takes advantage of the large spaces of Gagosian’s recently opened (see here) Mayfair gallery. The scenes may have been relatively normal to Rembrandt or Fragonard but because of the passage of time and the difference in culture, to me they are fantastical.” Glenn Brown Their sources of inspiration suggest things I would never normally see – rocks floating in far-off galaxies, for example, or a bowl of flowers in an 18th-century room, or a child in a fancy-dress costume.

(Slow down truckers and out of towners! Don’t you know death lies below?) Our clearly unworthy heroine. It is clearly impossible to appreciate fully the drama and heroism of the Horatio Hornblower novels while at the helm of one’s own vehicle! Hornblower belongs to stolen, quiet afternoons on the couch or the late hours past one’s bedtime and should not have to compete for the reader’s attention with the agonies of Baton Rouge traffic or horror and indignation at the recklessness of Texas drivers on the Atchafalaya bridge. ![]() Reading Hornblower in print is a very different experience to listening to it in the car - in fact, it is so drastically different that I’m ashamed to have ever chosen the audio books over their print version and, even more so, to have ever complained even once about the books dragging or containing too much historical detail. After so much fun listening to the audio book versions of the the first two installments of the Hornblower saga, imagine my disappointment at learning that the third book, Hornblower and the ‘Hotspur,’ also read by Christopher Radeska, was unavailable in audiobook form! Have no fear, gentle reader! Happily, my father had the entire Hornblower collection stowed away in his study, stacked on a shelf behind an even larger stash of Patrick O’Brien novels. ![]() ![]() For the roots of these conditions of “under-development,” one historical account stands alone in importance: Walter Rodney’s How Europe Underdeveloped Africa (1972).
