Need a musical goose?/then get off your caboose/and enthuse for a doozical, woozical Seuss/Where the Whos call a truce/And a moose might be puce/When you choose a Carus-ical, musical Seuss. Maybe nobody can twist sounds into balloon animals of rhyme the way Theodor Geisel did, but a Tony-laden team is going to try, adapting some of Geisel's Dr. Seuss books and characters into a Broadway show called Seussical: The Musical. The songs are by Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty (Ragtime). Frank Galati, who won two Tony awards for The Grapes of Wrath, is the director...
Comprised of the Carus Lectures Cavell presented to the American Philosophical Association in 1988, this unruly--at times unfathomable--little book traverses the vast range of Cavell's recent thought, providing brilliant (if brief, sometimes sketchy) insights into the work of Emerson, Wittgenstein and Rawls, and charting a course for the future of American philosophy...

The model might be the U.S. guarantee of South Korea's security against North Korea, which is also believed to be developing the Bomb...
...more invoked than read. But one would be hard pressed to find much public recognition of their contemporaries in painting. There is Caspar David Friedrich, the darling of the art historians, with his cloaked and silent watchers, his chilly crags and moonstruck ships. But Philipp Otto Runge? Carl Gustav Carus? Franz Pforr and Julius Schnorr von Carolsfeld? Johann Overbeck? Franz Horny or Adrian Zingg? Not household names, exactly -- yet interesting and sometimes remarkable artists, all the same. Hence the Morgan's show fills a distinct gap. None of the drawings and watercolors in it have been seen in America before...
