At the center of the group stood Sigmund Freud, and around him were Sandor Ferenczi, Otto Rank, Hanns Sachs, Karl Abraham, and Ernest Jones. They were gathered on that spring day to form what Freud called his Secret Committee, to monitor the activities of the despised Carl Jung (whom Freud had recently named his successor), and to make certain that Freud alone continued to dominate psychoanalysis. Phyllis Grosskurth's The Secret Ring is a tale of ideology and personality, of orthodoxy and manipulation. She tells how Freud exerted his control over these founding men of psychoanalysis, how they fought with one another and competed for his favor, and how through the activities of this committee the foundations of international psychoanalysis were laid down. Based on access to papers that are not yet available in English, The Secret Ring brings an of these men to life: Jones, the arrogant and unpopular outsider; Rank, the loyal mole; Ferenczi, the adoring acolyte; Sachs (and later Eitingon), both enigmas; and Abraham, the disturbingly confident Berliner. And of course Freud: self~involved, demanding perfect obedienoe,manipulative, visionary. When he presented a gold ring to each of them, a lifelong pact of loyalty was sealed. This story is one of the most dramatic and enlightening in all of twentieth~century intellectual history.

These same pictures, the earliest roots of the written language, live on in the characters used today, in the sights and symbols of everyday Chinese life. China: Empire of Living Symbols is a book for everyone who has ever wondered about the mystery of Chinese characters, or about how to begin exploring this greatest of all civilizations. Using, for the first time, the astonishing archaeological discoveries of the past few decades, Cecilia Lindqvist traces the origins of the basic characters and the world in which they evolved. Her story blends legend, an art historian's eye, and innovative scholarship with witty and colorful observations from years of living in China. Every stage in this 3,000~year saga is vividly illustrated with drawings, rubbings, paintings, and full~color photographs. First seen on the "oracle bones" used like astrology to settle the affairs of kings, then on the magnificent bronzes of the Shang dynasty, these primeval symbols endure not only in the priceless scrolls of the great poet/ calligraphers, but also in such humble forms as tissue~paper fish common on holidays and dragons sewn on children's clothes, and even in the landscape itself: the river gorges, sacred mountains, rock and cloud formations from which this empire of living symbols first arose. As intriguing as a detective story, as entertaining as a novel, this exquisitely designed book is an event in Chinese scholarship. For anyone learning to read the characters, it is a godsend. For every reader, it opens an irresistible window into Chinese life and culture.

John Gardner (1933 - 1982) was an American novelist, essayist, literary critic and university professor. He is best known for his 1971 novel Grendel, a retelling of the Beowulf myth from the monster's point of view. A tour de force! Gardner's best-known novels include The Sunlight Dialogues, about a disaffected policeman asked to engage a madman fluent in classical mythology; Grendel, a retelling of the Beowulf legend from the monster's point of view, with an existential subtext; and October Light, about an embittered brother and sister living and feuding with each other in rural Vermont (the novel includes an invented "trashy novel" the woman reads). This last book won the National Book Critics Circle Award in 1976. Gardner was killed in a motorcycle accident about two miles from his home in Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania, on Tuesday, September 14, 1982. The crash was four days before his planned marriage.--Wikipedia abridged.

In this provocative and elegant history, the English historian Geoffrey Wheatcroft examines the eventful first hundred years of political Zionism, and suggests that, for the majority of the Jewish people who do not live in Israel, Zionism and the Jewish state may have raised as many questions as they have answered. After centuries of persecution and contempt, European Jews were slowly emancipated in the nineteenth century. This gave them a chance to become what they were never allowed to be before: loyal citizens of the countries where they lived. As the nineteenth century wore on, however; this emancipation proved to be an illusion. The hatred once based on religion made way for a new and more insidious form of anti~Semitism based on race and culture. The Jew was still a stranger, his position the more false and humiliating for his attempt to assimilate. This was the Jewish Question, to which, at the end of the nineteenth century, a drastic solution was proposed. In 1896, Viennese journalist Theodore Herzl first coined the term "Zionism," for a movement to found a homeland where Jews could live free from this persecution. In The Controrersy of Zion, Wheatcroft shows how Zionism, proposed as an answer, has instead raised many questions. He examines in detail the debates over Jewish nationalism, from the time of Herzl through Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin's assassination in 1995, introducing a host of extraordinary characters: Disraeli and Marx; the early Zionists Hess and Herzl; jewish writers such as Karl Kraus; anti~semites such as Belloc; military Zionists such as Jabotinsky; and noble~spirited teachers such as Judah Magnes. Today there is a Jewish state which is a source of healing pride for millions of Jews, but also a source of anxiety. Should they defend the religious zealots and right~wing settlers who play an ever larger part in Israeli life? Or is Israel increasingly irrelevant to the fabulous success story of the Jews of America? This engaging and original book illuminates the current conflicts in the Middle East, and the continuing Jewish dilemma.
