SUMMARY:Wide Angle Lunch: Timothy Marthand
DESCRIPTION:Timothy Birendra Marthand \nExcellence and a Calling: Clues \n\nWide Angle is thrilled to welcome back concert pianist Timothy Birendra Marthand\, who will build upon his Series V lunch by tackling a new topic: excellence. With the aim of understanding the nature of excellence and why it is more relevant than ever before\, Marthand weaves into his exploration of excellence the value in mistakes\, of distinguishing one’s self from one’s identity\, and the capriciousness of creativity. \nHailing from Hyderabad\, India\, where he is currently pursuing twin passions for classical music and education through an effort to create the first all-Indian symphony orchestra\, Marthand has studied in Singapore\, the United States\, and Europe\, with legendary musicians such as Leon Fleisher\, Fou Ts’Ong\, Dimitry Bashkirov\, and William Grant Naboré. He is the only Indian in residence at the International Piano Foundation headed by Martha Argerich on Lake Como\, Italy. \nFor tickets\, please call (843) 723-9912 or visit http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/840005

SUMMARY:An Evening with Mountain Man Eustace Conway
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, February 10th at 6:00 PM \nAn evening with Mountain Man Eustace Conway \nand screening of the new documentary film Reconvergence \nEustace Conway is the subject of  Elizabeth Gilbert’s book “The Last American Man”\, and is one of The History Channel’s “Mountain Men.” \nThe film will be screened at 6:00 PM with a book signing and reception to follow.\nPlease RSVP to mstokenberry@charlestonlibrarysociety.org\nLimited to 200 people. \nEustace Conway\, celebrated naturalist\, brings the voices of the natural world and historic primitive experience to life.  A cultural anthropologist\, he devoted his early years to the exploration of his country and its natural roots.  He left suburbia for the forest lifestyle at the age of 17\, making a hand-made tipi his primary residence for over 17 years. He canoed over 1000 miles on the Mississippi River at the age of 18\, he hiked the whole 2000 mile Appalachian Trail from Maine to Georgia at the age of 19\, he kayaked the entire southern coast of Alaska in his early 20’s\, and he rode his horse across America from the Atlantic to Pacific ocean\, later taking his horse and buggy 2\,486 miles in 56 days\, trotting across much of the Canadian plains and Northwestern USA. He has lived among a variety of indigenous/primitive peoples and he is “all about action”\, doing what he believes in. \nWith the hundreds of articles\, videos and features that have been published and produced about his tenacious journeys and alternative life choices\, he has always turned the attention back to the root conviction that we must know our natural environment to honor\, celebrate\, understand\, and love the precious earth that gives us life.  He committed his life to service at a young age and privately founded the unique 1000 acre nonprofit environmental education center\, Turtle Island Preserve\, where he currently resides in the forest and directs the Preserve\, passionately promoting the mission of enriching the quality of life on earth.

DESCRIPTION:Jonathan Odell is a novelist\, short story writer\, essayist\, speaker and memoirist. His work appears in anthologies\, national periodicals\, newspapers\, and a soon to be published volume of essays about growing up in Mississippi. He has also done extensive work in organizations in the area of racial inclusion.\nJonathan now makes his home in Minnesota\, but stays long enough each year with his Mississippi family to keep his citizenship papers up to date. \nMiss Hazel and the Rosa Parks League is the  story of two mothers\, Hazel and Vida\, in pre-Civil Rights Mississippi\, the author’s home state. In the beginning these women have little in common except for a deep and abiding loathing for one another. Like Jonathan’s other novels\, this is a tale of unlikely of friendships in unlikely times\, told from the heart.

SUMMARY:Speaker Series: Hunter Kennedy
DESCRIPTION:The Minus Times by Hunter Kennedy \nBegun as an open letter to strangers and fellow misfits\, The Minus Times grew to become a hand-typed literary magazine that showcased the next generation of American fiction. Contributors include Sam Lipsyte\, David Berman\, Patrick DeWitt\, and Wells Tower\, with illustrations by David Eggers and Brad Neely as well as interviews with Dan Clowes\, Barry Hannah\, and a yet-to-be-famous Stephen Colbert. With sly humor and striking illustrations\, The Minus Times has earned a fervent following as much for its lack of literary pretension as its sporadic appearances on the newsstand. All thirty of the nearly-impossible-to-find issues of this improvised literary almanac are now assembled for the first time\, typos and all.

SUMMARY:NOT By the Book: John Cowan
DESCRIPTION:To RSVP for this class\, please call (843) 723-9912 or email mstokenberry@charlestonlibrarysociety.org\, there is no charge for this event. \nCanada’s War of Independence\, 1914-1918 \nThe United States of America was born in a successful\, if slightly reluctant\, revolutionary war. The complete transition from colonial status to independence was a crucible of fire that lasted less than a decade. For Canada\, its independence from Britain is usually explained as gradual\, taking place over more than a century. This is probably a myth. \nCanada’s war of independence was the First World War\, the so-called Great War. Unlike the USA\, Canada’s war of independence was not fought against the entity from which it became independent\, but alongside it. Canada started the war as a colony of the UK and ended it as an ally. \nAt the outbreak of the war\, Canada declared war on no-one. Britain did it for all of the Empire. The internally self-governing colony called Canada merely got to decide how it would react to being at war. \nBut by 1919 Canada had a seat at the negotiations for the Treaty of Versailles\, a seat in the League of Nations\, and the right to be elected to the League Council. Effectively\, Canada was a nation state\, and somehow four and a half years had done what 47 earlier years had not. Canada had acted like a nation\, and so came out of the Great War as a nation\, with its own foreign policy and defence policy\, and its own representatives abroad. How did this happen? What was Canada like before the war\, and after it? How did it affect relations with the USA? \nThis story will be told over a morning in a combination of lectures and Q&A lasting from 9:30 until 12:30\, with a coffee break in the middle. The speaker will be Dr. John Scott Cowan\, who has formerly done two similar whole morning sessions for the CLS\, one on piracy and terrorism\, and the other on the War of 1812. \nJohn Scott Cowan spent 24 years at the University of Ottawa as professor\, chair of physiology\, and then vice-president. He was vice-principal at Queen’s University before becoming principal of the Royal Military College of Canada (the university of the armed forces in Canada) from 1999 to 2008. He has also worked extensively in labour relations\, and has flown some 64 aircraft types. Research in physiology co-existed with defence issues\, starting with a 1963 monograph on defence policy. Recently he has focussed on asymmetric threats\, piracy\, the characteristics of the profession of arms\, and defence education. He was president of the CDA Institute 2008-2012\, and chair of the Defence Science Advisory Board of Canada 2010-2013. He is the Honorary Colonel of the Princess of Wales’ Own Regiment. He has been a member of the CLS since 2008.

SUMMARY:Speaker Series: Susan Hull Walker
DESCRIPTION:Textiles as Text \nSusan Hull Walker\, who founded ibu in 2013\, studied World Religions at Harvard Divinity School and served for eighteen years as a minister in Maine\, San Francisco\, and Charleston\, SC.  Returning to school to study Fiber Arts\, she learned to weave and speak in the language of cloth. It opened her eyes to the very thing she had been looking for in her previous work – a woman’s way of recording her mind and soul. What she didn’t find in parchment and page\, she found in textiles. A woman’s text. \nAs a weaver\, Susan began to work with women’s cooperatives around the world to preserve the skills and stories of their region. Her designs showcase the sumptuous beauty of the world’s textiles for women who want to wear the colors of many tribes\, and in them\, belong to what is bold and strong\, eruptive and free. \nReception to follow at ibu- 183 King Street\, second floor \nTo RSVP to this event\, please call (843) 723-9912 or email mstokenberry@charlestonlibrarysociety.org
