Your pathfinder in this world of mythic adventure and romance, Professor Armstrong, is one of the world's leading Arthurian scholars and the current editor-in-chief of the academic journal Arthuriana. Demonstrating both encyclopedic knowledge and an infectious passion for the subject, she leads you in tracing how the myth developed across time, clarifying many misunderstood aspects of the narrative, such as the origins of the Round Table and the figure of Merlin, the illicit love between Lancelot and Guenevere, and the varied manifestations of the magical Holy Grail. You'll discover how the legend was appropriated and assimilated by differing cultures, and how each writer and artist in the tradition reflected and commented, through the Arthurian narrative, on the concerns of their own time and place. The result is an illuminating look at one of the most engaging, entertaining, and influential legendary traditions the world has ever known."--From publisher.PDF disc contains course guidebook.Lecturer: Professor Dorsey Armstrong, Purdue University.

Includes bibliographical references in guidebook.Lectures by Jason M. Satterfield, University of California, San Francisco."Mind-body medicine--working in tandem with traditional medical practice--makes use of a large spectrum of psychological, physical, and behavioral treatments, drawn from many disciplines, in an approach to health care that aims to treat the whole person. It provides highly effective resources for preventing and treating a wide range of medical conditions, such as cardiovascular disease, stress, cancer, and depression--as well as for fostering the ultimate goals of health care: truly optimal and lasting physical health, and emotional and psychological well-being. A knowledge of this exciting field offers you critical understanding of the state of the art of health care and a significant new direction in medicine. But beyond valuable knowledge, a grounding in mind-body medicine gives you numerous practical, empowering tools for your own health care, as well as that of your family--tools that can make a profound difference for healthful, vibrant living. In Mind-Body Medicine: The New Science of Optimal Health, you'll study this subject in compelling depth, with the expert guidance of Professor Jason M. Satterfield of the University of California, San Francisco. These 36 eye-opening lectures offer you a comprehensive overview of the field, providing rigorous answers to the questions of what makes us sick, what makes us well, and what we can do about it"--Publisher's website.

A moment that will be defined by the economic trajectories of three key players. A moment whose outcome will have a deep and lasting impact on the way you live. Recent years have seen a dramatic, unprecedented transformation in the landscape of the global economy. And the catalyst of this transformation -- destined to create a new economic order that will scarcely resemble that of the last 300 years -- is undoubtedly the rise of China and India. Both nations, which represent around 37% of the world's population, have experienced a rapid surge in annual economic growth of 7% to 10% in the last decade alone -- a growth rate that is nothing short of miraculous."--Publisher.

As you will read in the pages that follow, when Tom Haas and Arthur Housman conceived of PlayMakers Repertory Company in 1975, they created a unique institution, a professional theatre company not only located on the campus of a major research university, but one embedded within UNC's Department of Dramatic Art. That combination of professional artistic achievement coupled with the highest quality theatrical training characterizes PlayMakers Repertory Company from its inception to the present day. Then as now, the core of the resident company--composed of faculty who are both teachers and practitioners--along with the graduate students in the Department's three MFA programs, is constantly supplemented by the best directors, designers, and performers working in the field today. Graduate students receive professional training during the day from teachers who become their collaborators at night both off and onstage. Undergraduates learn from faculty members who are constantly moving back and forth between the classroom and the stage, with the knowledge gained in one realm sparking creativity in the other"--
