Book Discussion | Warlord Hitler: With Reference to the Campaign in Southern Russia in 1942 (online)
Alan Donohue will speak on his book, a study of Adolf Hitler in his role as military commander and strategist from the beginning of the Second World War until the end of 1942, examining in detail the campaign in southern Russia that year. The thesis challenges the post-war narrative of Hitler as a dilettante who was solely responsible for the strategic and operational errors that led to Germany’s defeat in the war. Instead, Donohue's research highlights that decisions made by Hitler with respect to such disparate themes as strategy, operations, logistics, intelligence, economics, air and naval power, and coalition warfare were generally sound if viewed from his perspective, even if they were not ultimately successful. The analysis also gives an overview of his own ideas concerning all aspects of military affairs, such as intelligence, command and morale. The careful analysis of Hitler’s decision-making process offers a unique contribution to Second World War scholarship and moves beyond a superficial understanding that the war’s outcome was a result of Hitler’s ineptitude as a military leader.

Opera | Here Be Sirens: A "Hilarious, Furiously Inventive" Opera
"...an erudite, hilarious, furiously inventive meditation on the siren myth." - The New Yorker "...inspired and strangely powerful...no one interested in smudging the boundaries of contemporary opera and theater should miss it." -The New York Times HERE BE SIRENS presents the daily life of three sirens, who kill time on their island as they await an endless procession of doomed sailors. Peitho revels in the luxurious sensuality of their rite; Phaino stonily enacts the ritual with no inner feeling; and Polyxo longs for escape into the world of the real, delving into centuries of scholarship and research on her species in an attempt to untwist their circumstances. As the opera goes on, the sirens re-enact the abduction of Persephone, encounter (and battle) their favored sisters the Muses, and leave no rock unturned to plumb the depths of their own origins, in this work of "audacious, genre-bending music theatre" (Wall Street Journal). Music & Words by Kate Soper (Pulitzer Prize Finalist) Directed by Jen Pitt For three sopranos and a grand piano, with: Marieke de Koker, India Rowland, Brooke Jones
