Marling, a professor in the Department of English, recently published Christian Anarchist: Ammon Hennacy, A Life on the Catholic Left.  His book tells the story of Ammon Hennacy, a forerunner of contemporary progressive thought, who was as an exemplar of vegetarianism, ecology, and pacificism, and illuminates a broader history of political ideas now largely lost: the late nineteenth-century utopian movements, the grassroots socialist movements before World War I, and the antinuclear protests of the 1960s.  This event will include a reading and talk.
