SUMMARY:CamdenCAN’s Fall/Winter Resilient Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:We humans\, and the rest of the planet\, exist in a tightly bound web of interconnections. These intersections are both our solution/salvation—it will take each and everyone of us working together to create a better world—and paradoxically it’s also these tightly bound systems that  are also causing the challenging conditions—droughts\, wildfires\, heat waves\, human migrations\, extreme weather\, biodiversity loss\, ocean acidification\, etc.— of our our current climate-changed world. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nIf you’d like to get a better understanding of these interconnections\, meet other curious and engaged Midcoast residents\, and find ways to not only remain resilient during the upcoming decades\, CamdenCAN would like to invite you to join us for our Fall 2025 Resilient Reading Group. \n\n\n\nThe reading group will meet on second and fourth Tuesday afternoons\, 4:00 – 5:00 PM at Camden Public Library in the Picker Room. Dates are 9/23\, 10/7 (bonus session)\, 10/28\, 11/11\, 11/25\, 12/9\, 12/23\, 1/13/26\, 1/27/26. May include a zoom component if desired. If you have questions or would like to preregister\, email camdencan2025@gmail.com.  \n\n\n\nThe ultimate goal of these book discussions is to inform as well as expand one another’s understandings of the moment we are living in. One of the greatest actions to take to improve our current situation is to talk about it\, as well as forge new alliances and build community. Come join us—let’s see what we can do to thrive in these challenging times.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOur first book will be Human Nature: Nine Ways to Feel About Our Changing Planet by Kate Marvel. Marvel is a climate scientist who conveys her deep understanding of the climate systems with elegance\, humility\, and humor. Her chapters include Wonder\, Anger\, Guilt\, Fear\, Grief\, Pride\, and Hope. Marvel is our guide and our coach. She writes\, “It will not be easy. A happy ending is not guaranteed. But a better one is possible…No one is coming to save us. We have to create the we have to create the world in which we want to live. …Science sets the limits; we write the story. It can be a hopeful one.” We expect this book to carry us for five\, 1-hour sessions. There will be weekly readings and prepared discussion questions\, yet also room for the group to vary the pace and topics depending on personal interests.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe second book in CamdenCAN’s Fall/Winter reading series will be Life After Doom: Wisdom and Courage for a World Falling Apart by Brian D. McLaren. Far from an apocalyptic nightmare\, this work\, written by a former English professor and pastor\, offers a life-affirming approach to living in difficult times. As the author states\, “Life After Doom is for everyone who has reached a point where not facing their unpeaceful\, uneasy\, unwanted feelings about the future has become more draining than facing them. It’s for anyone who understands that we’ve entered a dangerous time and we need to prepare ourselves to face that danger with wisdom\, courage\, character\, and compassion.”

SUMMARY:Mid-Coast Audubon: "Strata: Stories from Deep Time" with Laura Poppick - Please RSVP!
DESCRIPTION:The Mid-Coast Audubon‘s series of nature talks in partnership with the Camden Public Library continues on Thursday\, January 15\, at 6:30 PM in the Picker Room with a presentation by science writer Laura Poppick about her most recent book\, Strata. \n\n\n\nOne of NPR’s “Books We Love” for 2025A Scientific American Staff Favorite for 2025 \n\n\n\nJoin us for a revelatory journey through four moments in Earth’s deep past\, and their lessons for our future.\n\n\n\nThe epic stories of our planet’s 4.54-billion-year history are written in strata–ages-old remnants of ancient seafloors\, desert dunes\, and riverbeds striping landscapes around the world.  \n\n\n\n\n\nPlease RSVP below so we know how many people to expect. Thank you!\n\n\n\nFill out my LGL Form!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCopies of Strata will be for sale at the event from Hello Hello Books\, with opportunity to get your book signed! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn this original debut work\, science writer Laura Poppick decodes strata to lead us on a journey through four global transformations that made our lives on Earth possible: the first accumulations of oxygen in the atmosphere; the deep freezes of “Snowball Earth”; the rise of mud on land and accompanying proliferation of plants; and the dinosaurs’ reign on a hothouse planet. \n\n\n\nUltimately\, she demonstrates that the planet’s oceans\, continents\, atmosphere\, life\, and ice have always conspired to bring stability to Earth\, even if we are only just beginning to understand how these different facets interact. \n\n\n\nLaura Poppick is a science and environmental journalist whose writing has appeared in the New York Times\, Smithsonian\, Scientific American\, Wired\, Audubon\, National Geographic\, Science\, and elsewhere. She has been listed as a finalist for the National Association of Science Writers Science in Society Journalism Award and the Maine Literary Awards Short Works Competition in Nonfiction\, among others. She lives in Portland\, Maine. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMID-COAST AUDUBON\, SERVING THE MAINE COUNTIES OF KNOX\, LINCOLN\, AND WALDO\n\n\n\nMid-Coast Audubon is a chapter of Audubon\, and affiliated with Maine Audubon. We cover the midcoast inland from Boothbay Harbor\, west to Windsor and China\, and east along the coast to Bucksport. Our mission is to promote long-term\, responsible use of natural resources through informed membership\, education and community awareness. \n\n\n\nThroughout the year fascinating and informative programs are presented (free!) via the Camden Public Library\, and there are numerous field trips to see birds and learn about the natural history of Maine.

SUMMARY:Explorations Read-Aloud: "We Did Ok Kid: A Memoir" by Anthony Hopkins
DESCRIPTION:Every Friday\, at 11:00 am\, on the library’s YouTube Channel and Facebook Page\, the library will stream a brand new recording of local thespian\, Joseph Coté reading aloud selections from a wide variety of fascinating and entertaining books of fiction and non-fiction. \n\n\n\nFor December 26\, Coté will read aloud from Anthony Hopkins’ We Did Ok Kid: A Memoir. \n\n\n\nBorn and raised in Port Talbot—a small Welsh steelworks town—amid war and depression\, Sir Anthony Hopkins grew up around men who were tough\, to say the least\, and eschewed all forms of emotional vulnerability in favor of alcoholism and brutality.  \n\n\n\nA struggling student in school\, he was deemed by his peers\, his parents\, and other adults as a failure with no future ahead of him. But\, on a fateful Saturday night\, the disregarded Welsh boy watched the 1948 adaptation of Hamlet\, sparking a passion for acting that would lead him on a path that no one could have predicted.With candor and a voice that is both arresting and vulnerable\, Sir Anthony recounts his various career milestones and provides a once-in-a-lifetime look into the brilliance behind some of his most iconic roles. His performance as Iago gets him admitted into the prestigious Royal Academy of Dramatic Art and places him under the wing of Laurence Olivier.  \n\n\n\nHe meets Richard Burton by chance as a young boy in his art teacher’s apartment\, and later\, backstage before a performance of Equus as an established actor meeting his hero. His iconic portrayal of Hannibal Lecter was informed by the creepy performance of Bela Lugosi in Dracula and the razor-sharp precision of his acting teacher. He pulls raw emotion from the stoicism of his father and grandfather for an unforgettable performance in King Lear.Sir Anthony also takes a deeply honest look at the low points in his personal life. His addiction cost him his first marriage\, his relationship with his only child\, and nearly his life—the latter ultimately propelling him toward sobriety\, a commitment he has maintained for nearly half a century.  \n\n\n\nHe constantly battles against the desire to move through life alone and avoid connection for fear of getting hurt—much like the men in his family—and as the years go by\, he deals with questions of mortality\, getting ready to discover what his father called The Big Secret. \n\n\n\nClick the links to find the library’s YouTube Channel and Facebook Page. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThoughts to share? Book ideas to suggest?Contact Joseph at friday-explorations@usa.net

SUMMARY:Camden Philosophical Society: Free Will
DESCRIPTION:Following up on its December discussion of Hannah Arendht’s late work on “Willing\,” the Camden Philosophical Society will begin its Tuesday\, Jan. 20 session with a talk by long-standing participant Lloyd Gillespie on “Free Will: The Compatibilist Bridge Over Troubled Waters: Freedom as Process Philosophy.” The accompanying reading for the discussion is a 1971 article by recently deceased American philosopher Harry Frankfurt on “Freedom of the Will and the Concept of a Person.” \n\n\n\nThe Jan. 20 session will\, as usual\, be a hybrid gathering from 3:30-5:30 pm Eastern Time on the third Tuesday of the month. All are welcome to participate\, in-person at the Picker Room of the Camden Public Library or by Zoom. That goes for visitors\, as well as year-rounders in Maine\, and friends of the Society wherever you may be.  \n\n\n\nIf you wish to join via Zoom\, please let us know by return email (Reply All). You will receive a Zoom invitation on the day of the meeting. Click on the “Join Zoom Meeting” link in that invitation at the time of the event \n\n\n\nIn explaining the topic of his talk\, Gillespie notes\, “Compatibilism seeks a middle path: Free will is compatible with determinism because freedom is not about ‘metaphysical origination’ but about the ‘nature of the decision process’. From thinkers like Hume and Frankfurt\, a free act is one that arises from one’s own desires\, beliefs\, and character\, without external coercion or internal compulsion. \n\n\n\n“The key move is to define freedom within the causal web of the mind\, not outside it. It is said\, You are free if you can act according to your ‘second-order volitions’ – the desires you want to have (Frankfurt\, 1971). This makes freedom a psychological property\, not a physical one. Volition\, the faculty or power of using one’s will\, plays a large part in Frankfurt’s paper.” This paper and an associated essay published later as the short book “On Bullshit” made Frankfurt something of a public intellectual for a time in the early part of this century. From 1990 onward\, he was a professor and then professor emeritus at Princeton. \n\n\n\nThe reading is 17 pages and can be found here: https://www.sci.brooklyn.cuny.edu/~schopra/Persons/Frankfurt.pdf “I hope we can have a lively discussion\,” Lloyd adds.
