    Fanny Copeland and the geographical imagination

    No full text
    Raised in Scotland, married and divorced in the English south, an adopted Slovene, Fanny Copeland (1872 – 1970) occupied the intersection of a number of complex spatial and temporal conjunctures. A Slavophile, she played a part in the formation of what subsequently became the Kingdom of Yugoslavia that emerged from the First World War. Living in Ljubljana, she facilitated the first ‘foreign visit’ (in 1932) of the newly formed Le Play Society (a precursor of the Institute of British Geographers) and guided its studies of Solčava (a then ‘remote’ Alpine valley system) which, led by Dudley Stamp and commended by Halford Mackinder, were subsequently hailed as a model for regional studies elsewhere. Arrested by the Gestapo and interned in Italy during the Second World War, she eventually returned to a socialist Yugoslavia, a celebrated figure. An accomplished musician, linguist, and mountaineer, she became an authority on (and populist for) the Julian Alps and was instrumental in the establishment of the Triglav National Park. Copeland’s role as participant observer (and protagonist) enriches our understanding of the particularities of her time and place and illuminates some inter-war relationships within G/geography, inside and outside the academy, suggesting their relative autonomy in the production of geographical knowledge

    Tyrone Copeland, \u2701 (BardCorps)

    Tyrone recalls seeing Bard as a long way from home but also just close enough; being enthralled with the trees and small classrooms; joining Bard\u27s Black Student Organization (BSO), the Latin American Student Organization (LASO) and being elected senior class president; throwing a memorable tent party with dancing, followed by doughnuts and orange juice in the Old Gym. Copeland remembers studying film and electronic media under Peter Hutton and Leah Gilliam; adapting Amiri Baraka\u27s Dutchman for his senior project; studying site-specific theater and poetry abroad in Lacoste, France; exploring other careers and interests outside of filmmaking. As an alumnus, he jokes about the shortcomings of the 2004 tent party in comparison to his own.https://digitalcommons.bard.edu/oral_hist/1010/thumbnail.jp

    For close to half a century, the work of Germain Grisez has been highly influential, and his writings continue to receive considerable attention from philosophers and theologians of diverse viewpoints. His co-author for this work is the professor and noted moral theologian Fr. Peter Ryan, S.J., currently the executive director of the Secretariat of Doctrine and Canonical Affairs of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). These two eminent scholars explore fundamental questions about Christian eschatology, moral theory, the purpose of human life, and the promise of human fulfilment. The authors examine Christian teaching on the final destiny of persons, investigating the meaning of God's kingdom, the hope of the beatific vision, and the centrality of moral goodness and divine grace in one's final end. This work is an ideal source for students, scholars, ministers and lay persons interested in basic questions of Christian theology, the philosophy of religion, ethical theory, and Catholic doctrin
