SUMMARY:BYZANTIUM - SOUTH COAST SENIOR COLLEGE CLASS
DESCRIPTION:South Coast Senior College Class- Byzantium — The 1\,100-Year Empire That Time Forgot with Louis Salome. \nFounded in 324\, Byzantium is also known as the Byzantine Empire\, the Roman Empire in the East\, a Greek Empire\, and the heart of Orthodox Christianity. Byzantium began in antiquity\, stretched through all thousand years of the Middle Ages\, and ended where it touched the Renaissance. Byzantium sat between the Roman Empire\, the Ottoman Empire\, the Persian and Arab Empires\, directly under the Russian Empire\, and among the contentious European powers that followed the Ottoman conquest of Byzantium’s queen city of Constantinople in 1453. Rich in literary and artistic innovation (think mosaics and architectural treasures)\, and brutal in devising singular methods of warfare (Greek Fire)\, the Byzantines were unmatched in commerce. Among its powerful leaders\, Byzantium also had its feminist moments. This class will help us understand how and why the West evolved as it has. Instructed by Lou Salome\, Lou is the author of “Violence\, Veils\, and Bloodlines: Reporting from War Zones in Europe\, Asia\, and Africa”. He earned a BS from the College of the Holy Cross and an MA from Boston College. He is a retired COX Newspapers reporter who has covered the conflicts in Pakistan\, Afghanistan\, and the Middle East. Online registration is required. To do this\, please visit: https://south-coast-senior-college.coursestorm.com or call South Coast Senior College at 274-3105.

SUMMARY:RICHARD RUSSO AND ANDRE DUBUS III @ VINEGAR HILL - OCTOBER 19 - 5:30 PM
DESCRIPTION:RICHARD RUSSO AND ANDRE DUBUS\, III:  IN CONVERSATION \n \nTHURSDAY\, OCTOBER 19\, 2023  \nVinegar Hill Music Theater\, 53 Old Post Road\, Arundel Maine \nGeneral admission ticket is $50.00   \nPURCHASE TICKETS NOW \n  \n  \n  \nA (cash bar) cocktail hour and book sales will start at 5:30 pm followed by an intimate conversation with award-winning authors—and dear friends—Richard Russo and Andre Dubus\, III at 6:30 pm.  \nCome autumn\, Dubus and Russo will have just released brand new novels. Dubus’ Such Kindness\, the story of a working-class white man’s terrible fall\, has been called “A powerful portrait of recovered dignity” by People magazine. In Somebody’s Fool\, Russo returns to North Bath\, in upstate New York\, and to the characters that captured the hearts and imaginations of millions of readers in his beloved bestsellers Nobody’s Fool and Everybody’s Fool. \nAs always\, both novels brim with the two authors’ trademark heartrending observations and—especially in Russo’s case—wry humor. These are two masters in peak form. \nRusso and Dubus have read to rapt audiences at Graves Library over the years\, but this very special evening marks the first time the longtime friends will be appearing together in Kennebunkport. \nModerating the conversation will be former Graves Library board member Joshua Bodwell\, editorial director of Godine and Black Sparrow Press. \nThis event is being sponsored by our friends at Vinegar Hill Music Theater. \nPrint : A Bookstore will be selling a variety of the authors’ works during the first hour of the event.  Both Russo and Dubus\, III will stay after their talk to personalize any purchases. \n  \nRichard Russo is the author of ten acclaimed novels\, including Everybody’s Fool and That Old Cape Magic; two collections of stories; and the memoir Elsewhere. In 2002 he received the Pulitzer Prize for Empire Falls\, which\, like Nobody’s Fool\, was adapted into a multiple-award-winning miniseries; in 2017\, he received France’s Grand Prix de Littérature Américaine. His novel\, Somebody’s Fool\, was released in July 2023. \nAndre Dubus III’s books include the New York Times’ bestsellers House of Sand and Fog\, The Garden of Last Days\, and his memoir\, Townie. His recent novel\, Gone So Long\, was named to many “Best Books” lists\, including The Boston Globe’s “Twenty Best Books of 2018.” In April 2023\, Dubus served as editor of Reaching Inside: 50 Acclaimed Authors on 100 Unforgettable Short Stories. His novel\, Such Kindness\, was released in June 2023. A collection of personal essays\, Ghost Dogs: On Killers and Kin\, is due in winter 2024. \n  \nVinegar Hill Music Theatre is located at: 53 Old Post Road\, Arundel\, Maine 04046\, Tel: 207-985-5552.  The proceeds of all tickets sold benefit the Louis T. Graves Memorial Public Library. \nPURCHASE TICKETS

SUMMARY:BYZANTIUM - SOUTH COAST SENIOR COLLEGE CLASS
DESCRIPTION:South Coast Senior College Class- Byzantium — The 1\,100-Year Empire That Time Forgot with Louis Salome. \nFounded in 324\, Byzantium is also known as the Byzantine Empire\, the Roman Empire in the East\, a Greek Empire\, and the heart of Orthodox Christianity. Byzantium began in antiquity\, stretched through all thousand years of the Middle Ages\, and ended where it touched the Renaissance. Byzantium sat between the Roman Empire\, the Ottoman Empire\, the Persian and Arab Empires\, directly under the Russian Empire\, and among the contentious European powers that followed the Ottoman conquest of Byzantium’s queen city of Constantinople in 1453. Rich in literary and artistic innovation (think mosaics and architectural treasures)\, and brutal in devising singular methods of warfare (Greek Fire)\, the Byzantines were unmatched in commerce. Among its powerful leaders\, Byzantium also had its feminist moments. This class will help us understand how and why the West evolved as it has. Instructed by Lou Salome\, Lou is the author of “Violence\, Veils\, and Bloodlines: Reporting from War Zones in Europe\, Asia\, and Africa”. He earned a BS from the College of the Holy Cross and an MA from Boston College. He is a retired COX Newspapers reporter who has covered the conflicts in Pakistan\, Afghanistan\, and the Middle East. Online registration is required. To do this\, please visit: https://south-coast-senior-college.coursestorm.com or call South Coast Senior College at 274-3105. Wednesday\, October 11\, 18\, & 25 12:00-2:00 PM. The Louis T. Graves Memorial Public Library is located at 18 Maine Street\, Kennebunkport.
