Changing sets in the theatre of despair

Article Abstract:

A senior lecturer in drama and theatre studies at University College Chester describes how a workshop at a women's prison gave his drama class an insight into the work conducted by the Samaritans and gave everybody involved a chance to let their creative juices flow. The drama class introduced the students to the work of "listeners", inmates trained by the Samaritans, and gave them an insight into a different aspect of the community.

Talk on the wild side: animals can be eaten, worn and hunted and it is a misguided morality that assigns them rights

Article Abstract:

There is a feeling that there is no logic in conferring rights on animals who cannot claim rights for themselves or accord rights to others. The moral argument must start with metaphysics, exploring the minds of animals and how they resemble or differ from the minds of human beings. The right to exploit animals as we do, must relate to those differences and the different relations between animals and humans.
