Bentley, Eric, Robert Brustein, and Stanley Kauffmann. "The Theatre Critic as Thinker: a Round-Table Discussion." New Theatre Quarterly 25, no. 4 (November 2009): 310–23. http://dx.doi.org/10.1017/s0266464x09000608.

Abstract:
In 1946, Eric Bentley published The Playwright as Thinker, a revolutionary study of modern drama that helped to create the intellectual climate in which serious American theatre would thrive in the second half of the twentieth century. In 1964 Robert Brustein published an equally influential study of modern drama entitled The Theatre of Revolt. And in 1966, Stanley Kauffmann began a brief, combative stint as first-string theatre critic for the New York Times. Kauffmann's short-lived tenure at the Times dramatized the enormous gap that had arisen between mainstream taste and the alternative vision of the theatre that he shared with Bentley and Brustein. Collectively, these three critics championed the European modern dramatists, like Pirandello, Brecht, Beckett, and Genet, whose plays were rarely if ever performed on Broadway. They also embraced the early work of performance groups such as Julian Beck and Judith Malina's Living Theater when they were either ignored or deplored by most mainstream reviewers. Above all, they challenged the time-honoured idea that the primary goal of the theatre is to provide the audience with an emotional catharsis achieved by realistically identifying with the dramatic protagonist. By contrast, Bentley, Brustein, and Kauffmann championed a theatre that emphasized poetic stylization, intellectual seriousness, and social engagement. The discussion which follows, held on 27 October 2007 at the Philoctetes Center, New York, examines the legacy of these leading American theatre critics of the past fifty years. Bert Cardullo, who transcribed and edited the discussion, was Stanley Kauffmann's student at the Yale School of Drama and is the author, editor, or translator of many books, among them Theater of the Avant-Garde, 1889–1950, What Is Dramaturgy?, and American Drama/Critics: Writings and Readings.

Abstract:
David Crespy's account of Off-Off Broadway's roots in New York City is a welcome addition to a growing body of scholarship on this vibrant period in American theatre history. Many authors writing on this era have limited themselves to focusing on particular theatre groups, such as the Living Theatre, Café Cino, and the Open Theatre, or on the work of specific playwrights, such as Maria Irene Fornés, Sam Shepard, and Edward Albee. More historical accounts are needed to examine a cross section of theatre practitioners in the context of the political and artistic movements of the 1960s. Crespy has managed to do this to some degree, and has even convinced the elusive Edward Albee to write a foreword.

Abstract:
We are a lucky group of older adults, ranging in age from sixty to ninety-two, who participate in an intergenerational arts program at our local senior center in Flushing, Queens, one of New York City's most culturally diverse communities. In our living history theater program, run by Elders Share the Arts (ESTA) and facilitated by ESTA teaching artist Marsha Gildin, we are joined weekly by fifth graders from PS 24, a public elementary school located around the corner. Some of our senior members joined just last year, while others have been involved for more than a decade. Our relationship with the children is very special and mutually nourishing. ESTA guides us in sessions based on sharing stories from life experience and in transforming memories into art. We explore our ideas through theater exercises and devise an original piece rooted in what we have learned from one another. Rehearsals are an ensemble learning process. With forty-five people on stage during our performances at the senior center and school, the performance experience is always challenging, surprising, and well received. We connect strongly with the children during the program year, and our goodbyes are tinged with sadness, for we have grown close in our shared art making. This year our theme focused on the power of music in our lives.

Abstract:
We present a case report of a robotic-assisted mitral valve repair with simultaneous percutaneous coronary intervention. A 58-year-old man presented with New York Heart Association class III symptoms from severe mitral regurgitation and significant stenosis of the right coronary artery. In a hybrid operating theater, the patient underwent placement of a bare metal stent in the right coronary artery followed immediately by robotic-assisted mitral valve repair. Both procedures were successful and occurred in a timely fashion. The patient experienced no immediate postoperative complications and was discharged home on postoperative day 5. At 2-week follow-up, he had returned to his normal activities of daily living and at 1 year remained asymptomatic. This case report demonstrates the benefits of minimally invasive robotic mitral valve repair in allowing for successful repair, early postoperative return to activity, minimal incision pain, and high patient satisfaction. It further highlights the potential benefit of a hybrid operating theater in allowing surgical and percutaneous coronary intervention procedures to be delivered in a safe and efficient manner.

The Assembly is alive and well and living in New York (since 2008), creating group-devised theatre that interrogates The Weather Underground’s activism (HOME/SICK); economic and racial inequalities in the 21st century (That Poor Dream); and aging, art, and self-expression in America (I Will Look Forward To This Later). This young company of directors, designers, dramaturgs, writers, and performers celebrates the legacies of their avantgarde forebears by collectively making visually, aurally, and physically inventive political art that strives to build community.

Abstract:
Stories of American democracy, whether critical or congratulatory, canonical or popular, feature “the public” as their recurring protagonist. “The public” is a rhetorical fixture of political campaigns and democratic theories, opinion polls and calls to action. Its influence is formidable: the very idea scores political speech, and calls citizens into being. Yet as many scholars have argued, “the public” is a moving target, and possibly even a total fiction. Perhaps the best-known challenge in recent decades has come from literary critic and social theorist Michael Warner. “Publics” he writes in hisPublics and Counterpublics,“have become an essential part of the social landscape, and yet it would tax our understanding to say exactly what they are.” If a public is difficult to describe, it is in part, Warner explains, because the idea hovers in modern imaginaries between the concrete and the abstract. “A public” can conjure at once: a bounded audience—“a crowd witnessing itself in visible space”; a more abstract “social totality” like the constituents of a nation; and a community conjured through shared texts or identities.

Abstract:
The first article in the first issue of the original TQ was a piece by Jan Knott, utilizing the concept of the absurd as a means of understanding Greek tragedy. Recently, his essays, of which many first appeared in TQ, have been published in a new collection, The Theatre of Essence, from Northwestern University Press. Kott's idiosyncratic approach to the interpretation of theatre texts continues to distinguish him as one of those rare literary critics whose insights illuminate the play in production – the reflection in the Brook–Scofield King Lear of his Beckettian interpretation in the seminal Shakespeare Our Contemporary being just the most famous instance. Now Jan Kott, who teaches at the State University of New York, Stony Brook, turns to the world of Shakespeare's own contemporary, Christopher Marlowe, and examines Doctor Faustus as the meeting-place of many kinds of Elizabethan and pre-Elizabethan theatre, contributing to an understanding of the play that is rooted not in a dead theology but in a living theatricality.

Abstract:
Although living in the city can provide many benefits, it also provides many issues as well. Housing costs are constantly increasing, both physical and mental spaces are sacrificed, and our innate connection to nature is severed. These produce profoundly damaging effects on the human psyche and cause people to migrate from the urban to the suburban and rural areas. The solution is to design more efficient urban buildings that can actively adapt to its inhabitants' programmatic needs and utilizes wood, specifically cross-laminated timber, as its main material to reconnect with nature.

Abstract:

The role of mothering has always been an important area for study in nursing. However, transnational mothering, the experience of women mothering from afar, has not been well studied in the discipline. The purpose of this study was to explore the process of mothering by Mexican women in the context of their move to the United States. The conceptual framework of symbolic interaction and the methodology of grounded theory (Glaser & Strauss, 1967) were used to guide the study.

Data were collected through 13 semi-structured interviews of women from Mexico living in New York City who had at least one child under the age of 16 still living in Mexico. The results indicated that the process of transnational mothering was non-linear. Phases emerged from data analysis using Grounded Theory Methods of constant comparative analysis of transcripts, using coding, categorizing, and conceptualizing. Three final phases, each with sub categories, which explained the process of transnational mothering included reconceptualizing mothering, struggling, and embracing hope.

Reconceptualizing mothering was used to name this substantive theory that emerged. The Basic Social Process identified that fit the substantive theory that emerged was "social identity" as social identity is affected by a new understanding of one's role. The women in this study acknowledged the poor fit of their traditional roles of mothering in New York and therefore created new roles. The community that they developed and relied upon assisted with this new role adjustment. Implications for this study in the area of practice include the need for greater client advocacy and assisting transnational mothers to build and foster a community. The importance of the discipline's involvement in the area of health policy cannot be overstated as policies affecting mother child separation and reunification need a nursing voice.

Abstract:
Le Judson Dance Theater est un collectif américain de danseurs, chorégraphes, artistes figuratifs et musiciens que se réunissait à la Judson Memorial Church, Greenwich Village (N. Y. C. ), au début des années 60. Pendant cette période, le groupe forme un atelier pour expérimenter des nouvelles formes de danse qui aboutissent à une grande production de pièces innovatrices. Bien que l'historiographie ait reconstruit la plupart de l'activité du groupe, son image reste mythologique et réductive. Cette étude sollicite une analyse interprétative pour rendre compte du contexte socio artistique et donc voir de quelles manières le J. D. T. Est représentatif de son temps; pour réintégrer des figures négligées dans les études interprétatives du groupe et donc étendre la complexité phénoménologique de l'objet ; pour reconstruire les dynamiques de la corporéité et donc démystifier l'idée de corps naturel ou même quotidien. La méthode de recherche est historique et interdisciplinaire
Judson Dance Theater is a collective of dancers, choreographers, visual artists and composers who met at Judson Memorial Church, Greenwich Village (N. Y. C. ), at the beginning of the 60s. The group established a weekly workshop to experiment new ways of dancing that brought about a huge production of innovative pieces. Even though dance historiography has reconstructed most of its activity, its image stays mainly mythological and reductive. This research is based on an interpretative analysis aimed at acknowledging the socio-artistic context of the J. D. T. , therefore verifying in what ways it represents its own time. It also reconsiders artists who were neglected by previous interpretative studies, deepening the phenomenological complexity of this subject. And, finally, by reconstructing the dynamics of corporeality in the artists' training and performances, it tries to demystify the idea of natural and pedestrian body. The method is historical and interdisciplinary

Abstract:
AbstractDelina Filkins was born May 4, 1815 in Stark, Herkimer County, New York, a small village of less than 2000 persons in the Hudson River Valley, Upstate New York. Her father, William Ecker, and mother, Susanna Herwick, were descended from Dutch and German settlers that came to the Mohawk Valley, New York, in the 1700s. Living her entire life in the same area within a ten-mile radius, her life spanned over 113 years. With the exception of her great age and her generally good health, Delina’s life was rather ordinary: she lived most of it on the family farm, helping with family tasks such as spinning yarn and making clothes. Delina married John Filkins, a local farmer, at age 18 and they had six (possibly seven) children together, two of whom outlived her. Delina was noted for her age in very late life, with local coverage from about 1916, then reaching national attention in the 1920s. With the understanding that Delina’s age was generally considered to be reliable by the press at the time, her case is a candidate for the earliest validated person to reach age 113+. This chapter takes a closer look at the case and the documents available and concludes that the amount and consistency of the available documentation suggest that Delina Filkins did indeed reach age 113 in 1928.

Abstract:
<p>In very simple terms cities consist of infrastructure, operations, and people. All over the world more and more people are migrating to cities to find work and improve their living conditions. Consequently, for more and more people the built environment in our cities becomes their natural environment. The quality of the natural environment has a strong impact on the well-being of the people living in it, thus, we can improve the quality of life for an ever-growing number of people by improving the quality of buildings and structures. For years under public budget pressure, infrastructure has been designed focusing mainly on functional aspects, with occasionally abysmal results in terms of user friendliness. More recently this trend has reversed, and this paper shows some examples of large and small infrastructure projects in New York City where special emphasis has been put on creating a pleasant experience for commuters and other travelers. Engineers play an important role in this trend, as with their knowledge and creativity they are instrumental in supporting the municipality’s efforts to find affordable solutions for their projects.</p>

Abstract:
<p>When we design bridges for 100, 120 or even 200 years we have a static use case in mind. We design for one given traffic load - maybe increased 10% for the future - and anticipate virtually no adjustments in use and structural behavior, except for some bearing or cable replacement features. Looking back how demands changed even within the last 50 years, it would be naive to anticipate we know what is required in 200 years. Also - the effort spent in maintenance and refurbishment is significant during its service life.</p><p>We should think of bridges as living or evolving things. And digitization can help! A structural health monitoring system (SHMS) is necessary to better understand needs for strengthening and repair. A site-specific traffic analysis will show how demands change regarding means of transport and loads. Also, a "living" BIM model which will be maintained and nurtured during the whole life of a bridge is an important step to get a clear overview "how it goes" and what will be required next. Finally – the structural system of a bridge should allow for easy replacement of components, widening or re-use elsewhere. Modular construction would be a key element to allow for better adaptability.</p>

Abstract:
<p>Affordable housing plays an important role in providing equal opportunity for individuals within most communities in the United States. In the area of eastern Washington State, in particular, there is currently a dearth of affordable housing options; especially for larger families. This lack of three- and four- bedroom residences presents a challenge for the City of Spokane, and the low-income residents seeking housing. This paper provides a preliminary look at certain alternate construction approaches for stand-alone houses with the end goal of optimizing taxpayer funding available, and to reduce living expenses for occupants. Two possible alternative approaches [structural insulated panels (SIPs) and straw bale wall construction] are compared to traditional wood frame construction; all in terms of cost and structural performance. Alternate foundation options are also currently under consideration. It appears that certain alternate construction techniques are worthy of a fresh look; particularly straw bale construction.</p>

Abstract:
<p>The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts is located on the banks of the Potomac River in Washington, D.C. The Kennedy Center is home to the National Symphony Orchestra, the Washington National Opera and The Suzanne Farrell Ballet. In addition to being the nation's busiest arts facility, the Kennedy Center is also a "Living Memorial" to President Kennedy. The south expansion of the Kennedy Center, known as the REACH, provides much needed educational and rehearsal space, as well as a pedestrian link to the nearby Memorials.</p><p>The new structure combines practicality, versatility and innovation. Each surface and space created is unique, forming complex geometries and large span to depth ratios. The cast-in-place concrete structure is exposed on the interior or the exterior, including three white concrete pavilions rising out of the landscaped substructure. The pedestrian bridge connects the Kennedy Center to the river with over a 35-to-1 span to depth ratio. The REACH is scheduled to open in the Fall of 2019.</p>

Abstract:
<p>According to the UN department of Economy and Social affairs, 68% of the world’s population will be living in urban areas by 2050 [1]. Since urban areas represent the coming together of different transport modes on limited space, it is a transportation environment with an inherent high probability of clashes. These clashes are known to occur between different groups, e.g. pedestrians and cyclists.</p><p>In the Scandinavian countries, cycling is taking on an impressive cut of overall transport volume. Copenhagen has experienced a steady rise in bicycle traffic throughout the past decades –as recent data confirms [2].</p><p>Copenhagen has been the model case for Scandinavian and other cities to look at how to increase bicycle traffic. However, with the e-bike and other battery driven devices such as speed-pedelecs on the rise, the system as we know it is threatened. It is necessary to raise awareness for this change and induce behavioral change with the so-called “soft” traffic users. What are the recent findings in this field and what challenges are identifiable. What can be done in order not to put a positive development under threat?</p>

Abstract:
<p>The problems concerning the design, construction and use of buildings in a city environment or even other, less dense, environments, constitute a complex scenario in which various different disciplines are called to give their contribution: energy efficiency, reduction of the footprint, comfort, affordability and new living standards all play a key role in the design of new housing solutions. In the present paper, a new design idea is presented for the construction of buildings, capable of guaranteeing a high level of comfort for the users while safeguarding the surrounding territory. The proposed system, named GEODE, consists of a 120m diameter spherical steel or concrete structure with internal cores acting as shear-resistant elements. The shell contains five decks supported by mega-beams, on which 5-story high buildings can be erected, following design guidelines that have as a primary objective the preservation of high livability conditions. Among the defining characteristics of the system are its enhanced performance with respect to buildings of equal volume but different shape and the possibility of building the spherical shell using two different structural materials. These are distinctive features, which allow for the construction of small self-sufficient cities that synergically interact with their surrounding environment. In the present paper, an initial feasibility study is presented while the performance of different possible structural solutions, i.e. using R.C. or steel elements, are compared.</p>

Abstract:
Abstract Capacity improvement and obsolescence management are the primary reasons for deploying Communications Based Train Control (CBTC) technology to replace conventional track circuit-based signaling systems like in New York City Transit (NYCT), Baltimore Maryland Transit Administration (MTA) or the San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit District (BART). Resignaling projects without stopping revenue operations are highly complex and are referred as brownfield train control projects. The Automatic Train Supervision (ATS) subsystem in a CBTC System is responsible for monitoring and regulating train operations. The ATS’ responsibilities include functions such as identifying trains, tracking and displaying trains, setting speed restrictions and work zones, automatic and manual routing capabilities. In addition, the ATS serves as the Human Machine Interface (HMI) between Train Controllers at the Operations Control Center (OCC). One of the challenges in brownfield train control projects is fitting a CBTC ATS subsystem into an already existing Operations Control Center (OCC). The console in the operating theater will need to host both the existing system and the new CBTC ATS workstation. Similarly, the technical rooms may already be at capacity but still need to accommodate the CBTC system in addition to the legacy system for the transition period. Transferring the OCC to a new building is often part of the modernization program and is the ideal method to mitigate space constraints. However, CBTC deployment is not always associated with transfer to a new larger building with a large OCC theater. Transfer to the new OCC with more space may be done before the CBTC deployment or at the same time as the CBTC revenue service. When there is no new larger OCC, solutions need to be investigated to accommodate both the legacy system and the new CBTC at the existing OCC. Advancements in virtual technology provides a more efficient solution that reduces the amount of physical space an ATS needs in the OCC without compromising communication and processing speed or capabilities. This paper describes the different equipment and functionalities of an ATS subsystem and the challenge of fitting each piece into an existing OCC while keeping the legacy system. The paper then discusses the basic technology behind networking, defining the concept of machine virtualization at a high level, and how all these technologies may be used to solve the ATS challenges faced during CBTC resignaling projects.

Abstract:
There is a state of emergency in the USA- catastrophic coastal erosion, rising sea levels at the rate of one-eighth of an inch per year and poor water quality. Oysters can help. Oysters filter the water, removing toxins. Oyster reefs are living infra-structures that protect coastlines from storms and tidal surges. But…many of the world’s existing oyster reefs are functionally impaired. The Chesapeake Bay is dying. Untreated chemical run-off and human waste is creating ‘Dead Zones’ where there is no oxygen to support marine life. Much of Hurricane Sandy’s damage to New York City could have been prevented. In the early 1800’s the Harbor was lined with living oyster reefs. Now, these are dead or dying, fragile and vulnerable. Miami is flooded on a regular basis reports Miami Herald. Our oyster reefs must be revived or rebuilt- they will help. Walls are not the answer. 14% of US coastal cities have massive sea-walls already. National Geographic reports that by 2100 one-third of our coastal cities will be protected by walls, that cost billions of dollars and will not provide protection from the most severe storms. I believe in the power of the oyster. The oyster is an engineer- its reefs and shells work together as a “system of systems” to protect our waters and coastlines. Without them we are sunk, literally, no matter how many engineered systems we humans try to substitute and pay billions of dollars to implement.

Abstract:
The Annual Report on Migration and Asylum 2016 provides an overview of trends, policy developments and significant debates in the area of asylum and migration during 2016 in Ireland. Some important developments in 2016 included: The International Protection Act 2015 was commenced throughout 2016. The single application procedure under the Act came into operation from 31 December 2016. The International Protection Office (IPO) replaced the Office of the Refugee Applications Commissioner (ORAC) from 31 December 2016. The first instance appeals body, the International Protection Appeals Tribunal (IPAT), replacing the Refugee Appeals Tribunal (RAT), was established on 31 December 2016. An online appointments system for all registrations at the Registration Office in Dublin was introduced. An electronic Employment Permits Online System (EPOS) was introduced. The Irish Short Stay Visa Waiver Programme was extended for a further five years to October 2021. The Second National Action Plan to Prevent and Combat Human Trafficking was published. 2016 was the first full year of implementation of the Irish Refugee Protection Programme (IRPP). A total of 240 persons were relocated to Ireland from Greece under the relocation strand of the programme and 356 persons were resettled to Ireland. Following an Oireachtas motion, the Government agreed to allocate up to 200 places to unaccompanied minors who had been living in the former migrant camp in Calais and who expressed a wish to come to Ireland. This figure is included in the overall total under the IRPP. Ireland and Jordan were appointed as co-facilitators in February 2016 to conduct preparatory negotiations for the UN high level Summit for Refugees and Migrants. The New York Declaration, of September 2016, sets out plans to start negotiations for a global compact for safe, orderly and regular migration and a global compact for refugees to be adopted in 2018. Key figures for 2016: There were approximately 115,000 non-EEA nationals with permission to remain in Ireland in 2016 compared to 114,000 at the end of 2015. Net inward migration for non-EU nationals is estimated to be 15,700. The number of newly arriving immigrants increased year-on-year to 84,600 at April 2017 from 82,300 at end April 2016. Non-EU nationals represented 34.8 per cent of this total at end April 2017. A total of 104,572 visas, both long stay and short stay, were issued in 2016. Approximately 4,127 persons were refused entry to Ireland at the external borders. Of these, 396 were subsequently admitted to pursue a protection application. 428 persons were returned from Ireland as part of forced return measures, with 187 availing of voluntary return, of which 143 were assisted by the International Organization for Migration Assisted Voluntary Return Programme. There were 532 permissions of leave to remain granted under section 3 of the Immigration Act 1999 during 2016. A total of 2,244 applications for refugee status were received in 2016, a drop of 32 per cent from 2015 (3,276). 641 subsidiary protection cases were processed and 431 new applications for subsidiary protection were submitted. 358 applications for family reunification in respect of recognised refugees were received. A total of 95 alleged trafficking victims were identified, compared with 78 in 2015.
