Marx’ Method, Epistemology, and Humanism: A Study in the Development of His Thought
Philip J. Kain
In recent writings on Marx one finds an increasing interest in his humanism. This phenomenon began in the third decade of our century as a reaction against the mechanistic and stereotyped image of Marx 1 characteristic of the Second International and of Stalinism. Lukacs, in History and Class Consciousness (1923), was one of the first to discover this new Marx, and he did so even before the most important 2 of the humanistic writings of the young Marx had been discovered. With the publication ofthese writings in 1932 - namely, the Economic 3 and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844 - this new outlook was given enormous impetus. In these Manuscripts, Marx makes the human being the creator and the goal of alI reality. The objectification of the human essence through labor transforms both society and nature. Labor transforms its wor1d into a place which mirrors, unfolds, and confirms the human being. This humanism is a complex and many-faceted issue. In this book we will be concerned only with a certain part of it, i.e., the epistemology, method, and doctrine of nature which it involves. Other aspects of it - Marx' concept of alienation and his theory of labor and the state -have 4 been dealt with elsewhere.

New Wineskins: Re-Imagining Religious Life Today
Sandra Marie Schneiders
NEW WINESKINS draws the biblical, historical, theological, psychological, and experiential foundations of religious life into a remarkably new synthesis that is eminently credible, creative and challenging.

With great clarity and precision, Sandra Schneiders provides us with the interaction of description, interpretation, and evaluation of the development of religious life over the past 20 years, particularly among women in the US.

Facing Two Ways: The Story of My Life
Ishimoto Shidzue and Barbara Molony
The life story of Japan's leading advocate of birth control, and one of her leading feminists. Well known in this country through her extensive lecture tour several years ago. It is a rather tragic story. First a girlhood, in a conventional high class family. Then her marriage to a modern foreign-schooled Japanese, who insisted on her learning to make her own way. And then -- when she had followed in the path he made, and tried her wings, he becomes a reactionary, and refuses to treat her as an equal, or to accept her departure from the traditional. A very interesting picture of Japan in the threes of discarding and taking on, of the coming of suffrage, of the development of women's rights, and of the background of culture and tradition and tabus. Your market is a woman's market -- those who liked the Sugimoto to books -- those interested in various phases of the feminist movement.

Yves Thériault et l'institution littéraire québécoise
Helene Lafrance
Le nom d’Yves Thériault évoque immanquablement le romancier des minorités, l’auteur d’Agaguk, d’Aaron et d’Ashini. On oublie facilement que Thériault était aussi un romancier « populaire », un scripteur radiophonique prolifique et, par-dessus tout, un homme pour qui l’écriture était d’abord un métier et qui a tenté d’améliorer les conditions de production de la littérature québécoise. L’analyse de sa situation dans l’institution et de ses rapports souvent conflictuels avec cette dernière permet de mettre en évidence certains aspects moins connus de sa carrière et d’éclairer d’un jour nouveau sa production littéraire et populaire.
Yves Theriault is mostly known as the author of Aaron, Ashini and Agaguk, novels depicting the life of three minority groups (the Jewish community in Montreal, the Montagnais Indians and the Inuits). In fact, he was a prolific writer who published numerous other novels, essays, short stories, and children’s books. To earn a living, he also led a parallel career as a popular writer, producing hundreds of dramas and sketches for the radio and publishing dime novels anonymously. A self-taught writer without a formal education, he always had a very tense relationship with the Quebec literary circles and academia. The critics were suspicious of his productivity and his recognition as a major Canadian writer was delayed accordingly. This study first looks at the relationship between the author and the literary establishment from 1940 to 1980. Then it analyzes how Theriault uses the same material in his literary and popular works, transforming and adapting it for different audiences and mediums.

Schiller, Hegel, and Marx: State, Society, and the Aesthetic Ideal of Ancient Greece (McGill-Queen's Studies in the History of Ideas)
Philip J. Kain
All three believed that the modern world could be remade according to this model, though none succeeded in his endeavor. At times Schiller seemed to recognize the failure of the model; in his mature writing Hegel dropped the model; and Marx, as he grew older, fundamentally modified the model. Nevertheless, focusing upong their attempts and failures allows an explanation of certain aspects of one of the fundamental concerns of current Marx studies: Marx's humanism and the relationship between his earlier and later thought. Using this approach, Kain shows that Marx's development cannot be divided into two neat periods - an early humanistic or philosophical period and a later scientific period - as some scholars argue, nor can one argue for an essential unity to his thought as other scholars do. Instead Kain finds Marx continually shifting his views in his attempt to come to grips with the issues that concern him. But Kain also finds a deep-seated humanism in Marx's later writings which grows out of, but differs from, the humanism of his early work.

New Deal Art: California
Steven M. Gelber, Lydia Modi Vitale, and de Saisset Art Gallery and Museum
Traditionally, the years of the New Deal projects have been treated as a part of the "Depression experience" with an emphasis on their economic and social dimensions. Until recently, sporadic interest in the art of the period has usually focused on individual artists, not general movements in the art of the time. This has been particularly true in the western states.
The purpose of the New Deal Art: California exhibition was to create an overview of the New Deal art projects by bringing together examples of art from the federal art programs in California.
New Deal Art: California came about as the result of a chance remark made, by Dr. Francis V. O'Connor, Art Historical Consultant, on his first trip to the de Saisset Art Gallery and Museum in 1971. The original exploratory research he did revealed a wealth of information about California's contribution to the Works Progress Administration's Federal Art Project and the Treasury Programs.
Dr. O'Connor's initial work helped provide the foundation for two years of subsequent research into the historical and aesthetic climate that gave birth to New ,Deal Art in California. The results of our explorations, in both quantity and quality of resources, has far exceeded our original expectations.

Women in Antiquity: An Annotated Bibliography
Leanna Goodwater
An extensive annotated bibliography of materials about the historical women of antiquity from the earliest records to 476 C.E., it covers ancient Greece, the Minoans, Etruscans, Hellenistic kingdoms, Rome, and the provinces of the Roman Empire.
Biographies of individual women constitute a considerable portion of the works listed. Ancient works are included, listed both in the original language and in translation. Modern works are covered as well -- books and journal articles published since 1872 dealing with the social, political, legal, and literary achievements and treatment of women in antiquity. English language materials receive comprehensive treatment, with selective coverage of foreign language works (Greek, Latin, French, German, and Italian). Ancient sources are listed first, followed by modern sources, in a simple subject arrangement. The bibliography is augmented by two indexes. The first, a unique and distinguishing feature of the work, lists by name many of the important women of antiquity, with their dates, brief identification, and references to numbered entries in the bibliography. The second is an index to authors, editors, and translators.

Motion and Motion's God: Thematic Variations in Aristotle, Cicero, Newton, and Hegel
Michael J. Buckley S.J.
The existence of God as demonstrated from motion has preoccupied men in every age, and still stands as one of the critical questions of philosophic inquiry. The four thinkers Father Buckley discusses were selected because their methods of reasoning exhibit sharp contrasts when they are juxtaposed.
