| ACTRESS/PETYA THE COCK [Ilyá Éhrenburg & Vsévolod Ivánov] Both these short stories are intended primarily for students making their first acquaintance with a continuous Russian text after a preliminary course in basic grammar. Both stories are written in Russian on the left page, with grammatical and vocabulary notes on the right. Ehrenburg's short story, THE ACTRESS, is a poignant study of a young woman who found love during a visit to the front, as one of a party sent to entertain the troops but lost it, tragically, almost at once, and then turned with renewed ardour to the theatrical career in which she had thought herself a failure. Vsévolod Ivánov, author of PETYA THE COCK had a very adventurous youth and early manhood, including active participation in the civil war and the struggle against foreign intervention. Since his first literary successes in the 1920s his output has been both varied in character and considerable in volume. { 44pp, 135200mm, January 1963; PB, £3.99, 0891974865:9780891974864 , Ardent Media Inc } |

| BODY FANTASY [Will Schutz & Evelyn Turner] Human beings are unities. Body and mind are inextricably integrated. Everything that happens to the mind is expressed in the body and vice versa. Somewhere we lost this knowledge. The Chinese knew it when they established acupuncture 3000 years ago. This book is an attempt to illustrate the inadequacy of dualistic ideas. Evy, the main character, undergoes a remarkable rebirth in a very short time, through the recognition of her essential unity. By working carefully and deeply with both her mind and her body, childhood problems and physical deficiencies are greatly alleviated. { 135pp, 132x205mm, January 1977; PB, £6.99, 0829009949:9780829009941 , Ardent Media Inc } |

| NAVAL RESEARCHES [Thomas White] The principal aim of this volume is to present a point-by-point refutation of the claims made by John Clerk (1728--1812), a writer on naval strategy. Clerk maintained that Admiral Rodney had achieved his success in the battle of Saints Passage on 12 April 1782 by following the suggestions that Clerk had laid down in 'Essay on Naval Tactics'. Captain Thomas White, a naval officer, set out to show that Clerk's claims had little substance to them. The volume discusses other land and naval battles but the major importance of the book lies in its minute and expert analysis of one of the most significant sea battles of the Revolutionary War. { 136pp, 145x225mm, January 1972; HB, £28.99, 0839821808:9780839821809 , Ardent Media Inc } |

| REVERENCE FOR LIFE : Sermons 1900-1919 [Albert Schweitzer] "Though I was well aware that Albert Schweitzer preached a great deal both before and after he became a physician, I never encountered any of his sermons until I was privileged to read the present collection prior to publication. What I find in this increases my sense of wonder, though it does not increase my surprise. It pleases me to find that like other speakers and writers, the famous missionary doctor preached many of his ideas before they were cast into essay form, thus following the experimental method...On the whole the sermons seem contemporary... Very early in the twentieth century, he understood that Christianity is not a merely spiritual religion and that the popular arguments against missions are superficial ones... What pleases me most about the new publication is its revelation of the author's deep personal piety..." -- D Elton Trueblood (from the Foreword). { 153pp, 140x220mm, January 1993; HB, £13.50, 0891979204:9780891979203 , Ardent Media Inc } |
| SCATOLOGY IN MODERN DRAMA [Shrager] Technically, scatology has been used for various purposes: to shock, to smash puritanical taboos, to exptess hate and disgust, to explain psychological motivation, to satirise, to preach acceptance of the body, to project moral indignation, to shake the fist at God, and to have pure Rabelaisian fun. Above all, modern playwrights have used scatology, verbal and visual, for one great thematic purpose -- as a metaphor for the human condition. { 113pp, 160x235mm, January 1982; HB, £18.50, 0829002618:9780829002614 , Ardent Media Inc } |
