HOUSE OF DECEMBER Including Selections from Words, And There Are Five Seasons and Interlude Seven magnificent new poems and selections from two previously published collections available only in hard-to-obtain privately printed editions comprise Richard David Kennedy's HOUSE OF DECEMBER. Its author obviously sees "things clearly ...and whole," to quote E. M. Forster in Howard's End, and he has also realized Forster's admitted intention as voiced in the frontispiece of that novel: "To connect..." The poems on physical nature, fleshly and spiritual love, the creative act, and time, all echo Kennedy's concern with the sanctity of the individual and the presence of the godhead in each and every one. The poet's technical virtuosity adds further complexity and density to his profound ideas. He makes us see things not only clearly and whole, but differently than before, the mark of an artist of the first rank. HARDCOVER EDITION

Collier and Horowitz capture the strain of ambition; the dynastic ebb and flow; the invention of a mythic identity; the corro...
International Law Theories
Two fish are swimming in a pond. 'Do you know what?' the fish asks his friend. 'No, tell me.' 'I was talking to a frog the other day. And he told me that we are surrounded by water!' His friend looks at him with great scepticism: 'Water? Whats that? Show me some water!' International lawyers often find themselves focused on the practice of the law rather than the underlying theories. This book is an attempt to stir up 'the water' that international lawyers swim in. It analyses a range of theoretical approaches to international law and invites readers to engage with different ways of legal thinking in order to familiarize themselves with the water all around us, of which we hardly have any pe...
