  The English Constitution

  Walter Bagehot

  The challenge facing Walter Bagehot while writing the essays that became his study of The English Constitution is that, infamously, there is no "English constitution," at least, not one that has ever been written down. The government of Great Britain and Ireland, in Bagehot's day, is the result of centuries of evolution, and so is the product of custom, precedent, reform, and a great degree of chance. As a "constitutional monarchy," the theory of government that Bagehot describes entails chiefly the role of the monarch, the main legislative assembly—the House of Commons—and its counterpart in the "upper house," the House of Lords which, despite its apparently higher social register, is in reality a subordinate assembly. In these arrangements, the Reform Acts of 1832 and 1867 (the latter being debated while Bagehot was writing his essays) played a major role, and loom large in Bagehot's discussion of the institutions of his day. The second edition of his work, published in 1872, takes a considered view of effects of the second phase of reform. At the time of writing, Bagehot was well settled into his role as Editor of The Economist , then a newspaper under the ownership of his father-in-law. Bagehot's prose remains eminently readable, showing a light touch and sense of humor in explaining sometimes arcane arrangements of government, and often reflecting on its contrast with American practice. His sturdy prose bears comparison with that of his contemporary, the novelist Anthony Trollope . In some ways, The English Constitution could be seen as the theoretical basis for Trollope's political novels , and those novels (especially Phineas Finn , Phineas Redux , and The Prime Minister ) as commentaries on Bagehot's theory. While now dated, Bagehot's essays were widely influential and remain the standard work on British constitutional arrangements. Woodrow Wilson took inspiration from Bagehot in his own thesis, Congressional Government , in which he called Bagehot "the most sagacious of political critics," without peer in "that field of critical exposition in which he was supreme, the philosophical analysis … of the English Constitution."

  Isaac Levitan was one of the greatest landscape painters of the nineteenth century not only in Russian, but in European art as well. He created works of undying artistic merit. His art is for all time and for all people because it absorbed into itself the woes, the joys and the social realities of its age, because it converted that which men lived by into sublime works of art and translated the author's emotions into lyrical images of his native land. At the end of the nineteenth century the landscape was one of the foremost genres in Russian painting. It was this influence that shaped Levitan's art, an art fully and by right symbolic of the finest achievements of Russian landscape painting.

  Show and Tell - Healing From...

  Linda Litteral

  Linda Litteral is a survivor of incest and rape who used art to heal from the destruction to the body and spirit which comes from physical and sexual abuse. In this courageous memoir, Litteral shares the story of her abuse, spanning eight years of incest perpetrated by her grandfather, a rape she experienced in high school, and physical and verbal violence she suffered at the hands of her first husband. She offers an in-depth psychological profile of the effects of abuse, including silence, shame, invisibility, powerlessness, guilt, and difficulties with trust and identity. She also illustrates how the body remembers abuse through symptomatology like dissociation, anxiety, chronic illness, and other post-traumatic stress responses. 
  Yet Litteral has done more than survive her past—she’s found a way to thrive in the present. She generously catalogs all the healing modalities she has experienced in her decades of undoing the destruction of her past, including talk therapy, meditation, yoga, breathwork, Tai Chi, and somatic-based therapies like acupuncture, EMDR, sacral cranial therapy, and Thought Field Therapy. But it’s when Litteral discovers the power of creating and sharing her art that her healing journey begins in earnest. Accompanied by rich full-color images of her art in every chapter, Litteral shares stories about the creation of her pieces, their stunning symbology, and how they aided in her healing journey. Litteral is both an artist and an activist, a fierce champion for survivors, and an unabashed advocate for the healing power of art.
