Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - J. Thomas Merton (1915-1968) was a twenty-year-old sophomore when he was introduced to fellow student Robert Lax (1915-2000) in the Columbia University cafeteria in 1935. They were brought together by an admiration for each other's writing in the college humor magazine. Upon graduation in 1938, Merton converted to Roman Catholicism; Lax began graduate study in English and took a job at the New Yorker. Three years later, Merton entered the Abbey of Gethsemani, and he and Lax saw each other only four more times. Yet their friendship was sustained for the next thirty-three years through an amazing correspondence. Their letters show Merton as an irreverent and often hilarious critic of presidents and popes. He also turned to serious issues, such as the war in Vietnam and the dangers of nuclear holocaust. Merton and Lax's correspondence is filled with reminiscences of friends and faculty from their years at Columbia, including Mark van Doren, Lionel Trilling, Ad Reinhardt, Edward Rice, and Jacques Barzun. These letters of two poets and solitaries betray a giddy delight in wordplay, unconstrained by rules of grammar or conventions of spelling. Puns, portmanteaus, and inside jokes abound. The thirty-year exchange began when Merton dashed off a note on June 17, 1938, after spending a week with Lax's family. The final epistle in this extraordinary correspondence was written by Lax on December 8, 1968. Merton died in Bangkok five days later and never received it. Arthur Biddle spent nearly ten years collecting every letter known to exist between Merton and Lax, a total of 346, two thirds of which have never been published. Biddle provides chronologies of their lives and places events and people in context within the letters. This volume also includes the text of a rare interview with Lax. Arthur W. Biddle is professor emeritus of English at the University of Vermont.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. For more than three decades, ever since 1971, Woody Allen has been talking regularly and candidly with Eric Lax, his critically-acclaimed biographer. Now, those conversations are collected in book form, revealing his development from joke writer to stand-up comedian to world-famous film-maker. Allen talks about the seeds of his ideas and the writing of his screenplays; about casting and acting, shooting and directing, editing and scoring. He describes his problems casting American men, and explains why he admires the acting of (among many others) Alan Alda, Marlon Brando, Michael Caine, Robert De Niro, Leonardo Di Caprio, Mia Farrow, Gene Hackman, Scarlett Johansson, Jack Nicholson and Charlize Theron. He discusses his favourite films (Citizen Kane the only American movie among his top ten, Duck Soup and Airplane two of his preferred 'comedian's films'), and what he appreciates about directors like Bergman, Fellini, Kurosawa, John Huston and Jean Renoir. Throughout, he shows himself to be thoughtful, honest, witty, self-deprecating and often hilarious. Conversations with Woody Allen is essential reading for everyone interested in the art of movie-making and for everyone who has ever enjoyed a Woody Allen film. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. In this explosive memoir, a political consultant and technology whistleblower reveals the disturbing truth about the multi-billion-dollar data industry, revealing to the public how companies are getting richer using our personal information and exposing how Cambridge Analytica exploited weaknesses in privacy laws to help elect Donald Trump. When Brittany Kaiser joined Cambridge Analytica the UK-based political consulting firm funded by conservative billionaire and Donald Trump patron Robert Mercer she was an idealistic young professional working on her fourth degree in human rights law and international relations. A veteran of Barack Obamas 2008 campaign, Kaisers goal was to utilize data for humanitarian purposes, most notably to prevent genocide and human rights abuses. But her experience inside Cambridge Analytica opened her eyes to the tremendous risks that this unregulated industry poses to privacy and democracy. Targeted is Kaisers eyewitness chronicle of the dramatic and disturbing story of the rise and fall of Cambridge Analytica. She reveals to the public how Facebooks lax policies and lack of sufficient national laws allowed voters to be manipulated in both Britain and the United States, where personal data was weaponised to spread fake news and racist messaging during the Brexit vote and the 2016 election. But the damage isnt done Kaiser warns; the 2020 election can be compromised as well if we continue to do nothing. In the aftermath of the U.S. election, as she became aware of the horrifying reality of what Cambridge Analytica had done in support of Donald Trump, Kaiser made the difficult choice to expose the truth. Risking her career, relationships, and personal safety, she told authorities about the data industrys unethical business practices, eventually testifying before Parliament. Packed with never-before-publicly-told stories, Targeted goes inside the secretive meetings with Trump campaign personnel and details the promises Cambridge Analytica made to win. Throughout, Kaiser makes the case for regulation, arguing that legal oversight of the data industry is not only justifiable but essential to ensuring the long-term safety of our democracy. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Der US-amerikanische Poet Robert Lax gehört zur Generation von Thomas Merton, mit dem ihn eine tiefe Freundschaft verband, ebenso wie zu den Vertretern der Beat Poetry, des Abstrakten Expressionismus oder der Neuen Musik. Und doch ragt er heraus als der bedeutendste Poet des Minimalismus dieser Ära, als ein Suchender spiritueller Wahrheiten, als ein 'Mystiker ersten Ranges'. »33 Gedichte« präsentiert die wichtigsten Arbeiten Robert Lax' zum ersten Mal in deutscher Sprache, einschließlich seiner großen Gedichtzyklen »Sea & Sky« (»Meer & Himmel«) sowie »The Circus Of The Sun« (»Der Zirkus der Sonne«), von dem die New York Times einmal schrieb, es sei das vielleicht beste englischsprachige Gedicht des 20. Jahrhunderts. Robert Lax (1915-2000) wurde in Olean, NY, geboren. Er studierte an der New Yorker Columbia Universität, wo er unter anderem auf Thomas Merton und Ad Reinhardt traf, die beide zu engen Vertrauten werden sollten. Er arbeitete als Dozent, als Filmkritiker, Drehbuchautor und Redakteur für das Magazin 'New Yorker', bevor er 1962 zunächst auf die griechische Inseln Kalymnos und später Patmos zog, wo er fast 40 Jahre lebte und arbeitete.
