Sinossi

Contested Artifacts explores the complex world of cultural property disputes, where history, art, and world politics collide. The book delves into artifact repatriation, examining how international law, ethics, and national identity fuel conflicts over cultural heritage. Did you know that the Benin Bronzes, for example, are claimed by Nigeria from various European museums, highlighting the legacy of colonial-era acquisition? The study emphasizes that resolving these disputes requires a nuanced approach, considering historical context and ethical responsibilities beyond simple legal claims.

 
The book uniquely balances legal and ethical dimensions, analyzing cases like the Elgin Marbles and the Koh-i-Noor diamond to illustrate the multifaceted nature of these disputes. It progresses by first introducing foundational concepts, and then moves on to specific case studies, incorporating perspectives from museums, governments, and indigenous communities.

 
Ultimately, it proposes collaborative frameworks for resolving disputes, emphasizing shared stewardship and cultural exchange.

    This must-listen account of starting at the lowest rung on the production ladder among enormously famous and outrageously demanding people will be devoured for its insights, gossip, humor, and storytelling. Married and with a child, the author takes unpaid gigs to get a foot in the door and eventually ends up working on all seasons of The Sopranos, often named the best TV show ever. 
     
     
     
    The show's setting and its creator's insistence on accuracy placed the native New Jersey author in the right place at the right time to become part of television history. 
     
     
     
    Includes many stories about guest stars like Steve Buscemi, Peter Bogdanovich, and Lauren Bacall, as well as the beloved cast, including new tales of James Gandolfini, who Kamine first meets after David Chase casts him as the Dean of Admissions in the classic first season "College" episode. 
     
     
     
    Woven in is a personal story of home life and strife, achievement and frustration, anxiety and accomplishment. The book's epilogue brings listeners up to the moment as the author, after many more years as an anonymous everyman, eventually enjoys outsize professional success as executive producer of the HBO hit series created by Mike White, The White Lotus.

    Rodney Dangerfield's fidgety delivery, self-deprecating humor, and catchphrase, "I don't get no respect," made him a comedy icon in nightclubs, on television, and in movies. But Rodney's long road to stardom was as rocky as his real life. That's when he decided to give comedy one last shot . . . 
     
     
     
    Back in the clubs and thanks to a fortuitous prime-time set on The Ed Sullivan Show, at the age of forty-five, the newly christened Rodney Dangerfield was an "overnight" success. It was the greatest second act in the history of show business. 
     
     
     
    Rodney mined his insecurities, personal and professional setbacks, and dismal childhood into comedy gold on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson, The Dean Martin Show, The Joey Bishop Show, Merv Griffin, and Mike Douglas. And behind that iconic comedy persona was a dedicated father who almost single-handedly raised two children; and a selfless and supportive mentor to such up-and-comers as Jerry Seinfeld, Jim Carrey, and George Carlin. 
     
     
     
    An honest, moving, and funny portrait of the real Rodney Dangerfield, Nothin' Comes Easy gives the legend, the man, the father, and friend all the respect he deserves.

    Now Go - On Grief and Studio Ghibli

    Grief is all around us. Even at the heart of the brightly coloured, vividly characterised, joyful films of Studio Ghibli, they are wracked with loss – of innocence and love, of the world itself and our connection to it. Whether facing the realities of death, the small and continual losses we encounter through our daily lives, or the anticipatory grief of the environment's ongoing decline, each has a distinct presence in these beloved films, with their own lesson to hold close in our lives, and comfort to be found.
    Now Go enters the emotional waters to interrogate not only how Studio Ghibli navigates grief, but how that informs our own understanding of its manifold faces. Touching on some of the cornerstone films and characters — from My Neighbor Totoro, Spirited Away and beyond — and their intersections with his own life, the broader spectrum of loss, and how we can move forward, Smith invites us to consider how these beacons of joy offer us a winking light in the darkness.
    (Please note this title is unaffiliated with Studio Ghibli.)
