The Death Throes of World War I RadioLIVE It’s the countdown to the 100th anniversary of the Armistice of 11 November 1918, where the world finally saw the end of its very first World War. This seven-part podcast series unravels the woes and the politics in what is often described as the “war to end all wars”, leading to an Allied Powers victory and the formation of new nations across Europe and the Middle East. We walk through the final weeks of the war with military historian Glyn Harper [Link 1] and RadioLIVE host Graeme Hill. “Jesus, make it stop: The death throes of WWI” [Link 2] originally aired on RadioLIVE’s Weekend Variety Wireless show [LINK 3}, with a new episode coming out every Sunday from 9:30pm. Harper is a professor of War Studies [Link 4] at Massey University in Palmerston North. He is also Massey’s team leader for the Centenary History of New Zealand and the First World War project (writing one of the first volumes). A former teacher, he joined the Australian Army in 1988 and after eight years transfe Short Nonfiction Collection, Vol. 085 by Various LibriVox "A regard for decency, even at the cost of success, is but the regard for one's own dignity" was novelist Joseph Conrad's take on fame, a quote from the preface to his autobiography A Personal Record (1912). Other lives chosen by readers to examine in vol. 085 include the Borgias; the Cynocephali; Hermann von Helmholtz; Edgar Allan Poe; John Burroughs; a pre-Revolutionary War magnate named Browne, who built a mansion on the ridge of a hill; women as a social class; and an 1821 rabies victim named Thomas, who exhibited hydrophobia. Political history receives scrutiny in Some Materials and a Possibility; The House Famine; Cracow; The Dutch East India Company; and Across Africa by Air and Rail. The art of Japanning illuminates an ancient craft. Literature, by Irvin Cobb, is welcome humor. And for hungry souls, there are recipes for ice cream and for Army chow! Summary by Sue Anderson. Hill of Dreams by Arthur Machen Loyal Books The novel recounts the life of a young man, Lucian Taylor, focusing on his dreamy childhood in rural Wales, in a town based on Caerleon. The Hill of Dreams of the title is an old Roman fort where Lucian has strange sensual visions, including ones of the town in the time of Roman Britain. Later it describes Lucian's attempts to make a living as an author in London, enduring poverty and suffering in the pursuit of art. Generally thought to be Machen's greatest work, it was little noticed on its publication in 1907 save in a glowing review by Alfred Douglas. It was actually written between 1895 and 1897 and has elements of the style of the decadent and aesthetic movement of the period, seen through Machen's own mystical preoccupations.
