Rolland Golden

Life, Love, and Art in the French Quarter

By: Rolland Golden

In the early twentieth century, the French Quarter had become home to a vibrant community of working artists attracted to the atmosphere, architecture, and colorful individuals who populated the scene (and who also became some of its first preservationists). Louisiana native Rolland Golden was one of these artists to live, work, and raise a family in this most storied corner of New Orleans. With 94 black-and-white and 54 color photographs and illustrations, his memoir of that life focuses on the period of 1955 to 1976. Golden, a painter, discusses the particular challenges of making a living from art, and his story becomes a family affair involving his daughters and his beloved wife, Stella. Golden's studio sat in a patio on Royal Street, around the corner from Preservation Hall where old-time musicians played Dixieland Jazz. Golden sketched and painted many of them in a visual style that encompassed realism and gradually developed into abstract realism. Golden recalls work that he did in historic preservation, sketching architecture for publications such as the Vieux Carre Courier, and he discusses his studies with renowned regionalist painter John McCrady. The artist frankly discusses his experiences with the display, representation, and sale of his work, presenting a little-explored and yet crucial part of a working artist's life. The memoir concludes with Golden and his wife traveling to the premiere of his exhibition in Moscow, having been selected by a Russian envoy as the only American artist to have a one-man touring exhibition in the former Soviet Union. Among the nearly 150 black-and-white and color illustrations are never-before-seen photos and sketches by the artist.

How the Easter Story Grew from Gospel to Gospel

By: Rolland Wolfe

This study deals with the Easter occurrences: the reporters; the various ways of accounting for Jesus' Easter appearances, including theories that the disciples stole the body or that coma was followed by physical revival; proliferations of stories about Jesus' post-Easter ministries in parts of the world; and the development of Mary stories in connection with the Passion and Easter.

The Fairy Tale World of George MacDonald

By: Rolland Hein

George MacDonald wrote fairy tales for both children and adults to demonstrate the essential role of the imagination in apprehending spiritual truths. He explained: ". . . undefined, yet vivid visions of something beyond, something which eye has not seen nor ear heard, have far more influence than any logical sequences whereby the same things may be demonstrated to the intellect." Rolland Hein undertakes to show how MacDonald's tales contain such visions, helping readers to experience for themselves glimpses of "something beyond" and catch exciting insights into eternal truths.

Traumatic Brain Injury and Neuropsychological Impairment

Sensorimotor, Cognitive, Emotional, and Adaptive Problems of Children and Adults

By: Rolland S. Parker

The brain is a delicate, complex, and easily disrupted organ. Unfortunately, the frequency of brain injury and the impairing effects of even seemingly minor injury is generally unknown to the public, the media, and, surprisingly, even many health professionals. It is hoped that this book will make a contribution to the welfare of brain-damaged people through a comprehensive and detailed state ment concerning their impairment and how to recognize it. Increased under standing of impairment, and the significant symptoms that reveal it, will enhance treatment planning, and aid in avoiding the error of assuming that symptoms are emotional, malingering, or exaggerations. In writing this book I have drawn on my experience in assessing individuals of all ages who have undergone traumatic brain injury, in order to alert the public, their families, concerned professionals, teaching physicians, psychologists, and attorneys to the clinical and technical issues that will aid in understanding and serving these people. Experience as a psychotherapist and career counselor offered a clinical perspective from which to document the conclusion that trau matic brain damage frequently impairs adaptive capacity of children and adults after even relatively "minor" injury.

The Harmony Within

The Spiritual Vision of George MacDonald

By: Rolland Hein

George MacDonald is a witness to the power of imagination. By using the art of enchantment, he is able to draw readers into another world seemingly more real than this one. What was the power behind his imagination and what drove MacDonald's art? It was his vision of the spiritual life that provided the context for his fantastic fairy tales and other writings. The Harmony Within: The Spiritual Vision of George MacDonald takes a close look at the religious roots of MacDonald's writing. So many people today are looking for a spiritual connection between God and man, between myth and destiny. George MacDonald's work provides a doorway to other worlds; the ideas behind his writing may help reshape the mythic elements of our lives.

Washington's Wit Modernly Writ : Solomon's New Leaf : Thoughts from the Early Twenty-first Century

By: Rolland E. Stroup

This book contains Washington's Wit Modernly Writ, Solomon's New Leaf, and Thoughts from the Early Twenty-first Century. The first section presents paraphrases and summations of passages from the diaries, letters and speeches of George Washington from his teenage years to retirement. The second section paraphrases Ecclesiastes, a book from The Holy Bible. When Ecclesiastes is quoted sporadically, which has often been done in entertainment media, the resulting tone is usually one hinting of negativity. Rolland E. Stroup, Jr. has attempted to lighten it up. The third section provides observations, ideas and thoughts noted down by the author while living through the first few years of the Twenty-first Century.

A Treasury of Heaven's Likenesses

Descriptions of Heaven from Scriptures of Major World Religions

By: Rolland Stroup, Jr

Here is immediate access to concepts of heaven from the sacred writings of major world religions. Based on a one-year extensive review of world scriptureal texts, it answers the following questions: 1) What is heaven like? 2) How do concepts of heaven vary from religion to religion? 3) How do I get there from various parts of the world? 4) Is heaven just an oasis? 5) What goes on in heaven? 6) Who is in heaven? 7) How will I feel in heaven? This book is a good reference for persons interested in detailed descriptions of heaven. It also reveals some of the basic motivational concepts of adherents of major world religions. The oldest living human being recently died. She was 116 years old. That is about 30 years older than the average age of death in countries with citizens in the very best of health. How old are you? No matter how old you are, maybe you should learn more about the ultimate reward from God?

Colas Breugnon (A Burgundian Story; French Classics)

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Colas Breugnon (A Burgundian Story; French Classics)

By: Romain Rolland

Colas Breugnon" is a charming romance of life in Burgundy three hundred years ago. It is an "autobiographical" novel, the story being told in the first person by Colas, who reviews his fifty years of life, and describes all its joys and sorrows. The story is gay and humorous, and full of wise observations about life. --- "Colas Breugnon is the jovial Burgundian, the lusty wood-carver, the practical joker always fond of his glass, the droll fellow. Before everything, Colas Breugnon is a free man. He loves his king, but only so long as the king leaves him his liberty; he loves his wife, but follows his own bent; he is on excellent terms with the priest of a neighboring parish, but never goes to church; he idolizes his children, but his vigorous individuality makes him unwilling to live with them. He is friendly with all, but subject to none; he is freer than the king; he has that sense of humor characteristic of the free spirit to whom the whole world belongs. From the artistic point of view, 'Colas Breugnon' may perhaps be regarded as Rolland's most successful work. This is because it is woven in one piece, because it flows with a continuous rhythm, because its progress is never arrested by the discussion of thorny problems. It is written throughout in the same key. The first sentence gives the note like a tuning fork, and thence the entire book takes its pitch. Throughout, the same lively melody is sustained. The writer employs a peculiarly happy form. His style is poetic without being actually versified; it has a melodious measure without being strictly metrical. This work is unlike any of Rolland's other writings. It is not an historic study, a critical appreciation, a philosophic essay, nor yet even, in the strictest sense of the word, a novel. It is rather a volume of reminiscences as told by a man of fifty; and the very aimlessness with which this man talks is in itself a pleasure; for Breugnon is himself the one subject of the book, holding our attention by the display of a wayward, sympathetic, and aggressive personality." (Stefan Zweig)

Blue Bloods

The Missing Twins (Race Relations During the Depression)

By: Fannie Adams,Rolland Taylor

Based on news articles, the book is about intermarriage between blacks and whites. The book is slanted with racial prejudice against intermarriage. The book arouses racial feelings. As an editor, I, Rolland Taylor, a minister, was so angry at the racial prejudice, didnt want it published because of the racial feelings it would arouse, and threw it in the garbage. Years later, I found another copy of the book in my mothers things and decided maybe it should be published as an example of feelings during depression days.
