SUMMARY:The Maverick: George Weidenfeld and the Golden Age of Publishing
DESCRIPTION:Thomas Harding in conversation with David Herman about The Maverick\, his new biography of iconic and sometimes controversial Austrian-born publisher George Weidenfeld. \nAfter arriving in London just before the Second World War as a penniless and friendless Austrian-Jewish refugee\, George Weidenfeld went on to transform not only the world of publishing but the culture of ideas. The books that he published include momentous titles such as Lolita\, Double Helix\, The Group and The Hedgehog and the Fox\, with authors he championed ranging from Joan Didion\, Mary McCarthy\, Golda Meir and Edna O’Brien to Henry Miller\, Harold Wilson\, Saul Bellow and Henry Kissinger. \nIn this first\, newly-published biography\, acclaimed author Thomas Harding provides a full\, unvarnished and at times difficult history of this complex and fascinating character. Drawing on author correspondence\, internal memos\, and other documents buried deep in the secret publishing files of Weidenfeld & Nicolson\, Harding crafts a portrait of the publisher’s life that is inextricable from the efforts and intricacies of putting a book into the world.  \nTo book\, click here\nThose who sign up to attend this online event will be eligible for a discount of £5 off the RRP of the book.

SUMMARY:The Photographs of Zygmunt Bauman
DESCRIPTION:Cultural historian Janet Wolff will introduce a less well-known aspect of the career of eminent sociologist Zygmunt Bauman. \nPolish-born Zygmunt Bauman\, who settled in the UK in 1971\, is known internationally as the sociologist of postmodernity and ‘liquid’ society. But he was also a serious photographer. The Photographs of Zygmunt Bauman\, a new publication edited by Janet Wolff and Peter Beilharz\, presents a selection of his black-and-white photographs\, together with a range of essays by colleagues\, friends and family about his work with images. The book features a mixture of short pieces on individual photographs and longer essays addressing aspects of Bauman’s photography and the life and work of his wife\, Janina. The book concludes with an essay by Karl Dudman\, one of the Baumans’ grandchildren\, based on a series of photographs he took in the family home shortly after his grandfather’s death in 2017. \nJanet Wolff is Emeritus Professor in English and American Studies at the University of Manchester. Artist Lydia Bauman\, Zygmunt’s daughter\, who is one of the contributors to the book\, will also be present. \nAll those signed up for this event will be eligible for 30% off the cover price. \n  \nTo book\, click here
