Proto : How One Ancient Language Went Global
by Laura Spinney
Daughter. Duhitár-. Dustr. Dukte. Listen to these English, Sanskrit, Armenian and Lithuanian words, all meaning the same thing, and you hear echoes of one of history's most unlikely journeys. All four languages-along with hundreds of others, from French and Gaelic, to Persian and Polish-trace their origins to an ancient tongue spoken as the last ice age receded. This language, which we call Proto-Indo-European, was born between Europe and Asia and exploded out of its cradle, fragmenting as it spread east and west. Its last speaker died thousands of years ago, yet Proto-Indo-European lives on in its myriad linguistic offspring and in some of our best loved works of literature, including Dante's Inferno and the Rig Veda, The Lord of the Rings and the love poetry of Rumi. How did this happen?

Having found a beehive, that bird-a honeyguide-sought human aid to break in. The behavior can seem almost miraculous: How would a bird come to think that people could help her? Isn't life simply bloodier than that? As Rob Dunn argues in The Call of the Honeyguide, it isn't.

John Williams : a composer's life
by Tim Greiving
THE MUSIC BEGAN IN AN ANCIENT FOREST. Most of Maine, ninety percent of the state, is forest. Hardy Norway maple, white ash, American elm, and Northern white cedar made the state's central coast a banquet for shipbuilders. When the first European stepped on the soil of present-day Bath in the summer of 1605, Captain George Weymouth immediately recognized this area-with its bustling river lanes, natural docks, and treasury of timber-as an excellent hub for ships. The region's gold was its white pine, which was felled and skidded across New England to make masts for the Royal Navy. Bath became known as the "City of Ships," and in the prosperous 1800s "the busy shipyards attracted workmen from outside," according to a history by Edward Clarence Plummer, "and the romance of the sea drew many of the native young men to a seaman's career." By midcentury, the city boasted multiple churches, mansions, and a theater. The Civil War asked Bath for gunboats and spent two hundred of its sons, and in the war's wake there was a brief depression; men were out of work and vagrants roamed the streets.
