The University Outside State Control
John Kersey

Despite historic ties, universities have generally enjoyed relative freedom from state control until the coming of the post-war era. In this collection of writings, Professor John Kersey, who is President of European-American University and an established consultant with over 1,000 expert opinions on international credentials submitted for use before the US government, looks both at the mechanisms by which this freedom has been eroded and considers the theory and practice of the independent private sector university today. This unique book, the first to examine its subject in significant depth, is written accessibly to introduce the reader to a range of complex issues necessary for the understanding of the relationship between universities and the state. It makes a powerful case both for university freedom and for allied individual freedom in tertiary education through the use of distance and non-traditional educational methodologies.

This book collects together many of the writings that have appeared online at EAU's Alcott Center for Educational Research together with other papers on education by Professor Kersey. Available in hardcover only. 310 pages.

Two Works by Archbishop Bernard Mary Williams, Second Archbishop of The Old Roman Catholic Church in Great Britain: A Summary of the History, Faith, Discipline, and Aims of The Old Roman Catholic Church in Great Britain (1924); A Pastoral Letter for Advent, 1920
New edition edited and with a preface by John Kersey

Archbishop Bernard Mary Williams was the successor to Archbishop Arnold Harris Mathew in the Old Roman Catholic Church in Great Britain and established the strongly traditionalist and conservative pattern still followed by that church's successors. These works speak of his conception of the ORCCGB as a Uniate Rite conforming to the Roman Catholic Church in most respects, but differing in the admission of a married priesthood and a vernacular liturgy.

Unavailable for many years, this edition has a Preface by John Kersey and is available as a free-to-download e-book as well as in hardcover. 47 pages.

Extensively illustrated, it is available in hardcover only. 276 pages.

Music

Romantic Discoveries Recordings
Romantic Discoveries Recordings operates as a research center in association with EAU. Since its inception, RDR has researched unknown piano music of the nineteenth-century and brought it to the public by means of a series of première CD recordings that now encompass over one hundred works. Its research resources include major reference libraries, musical archives, antiquarian dealers and fellow collectors. RDR has been featured in the press in Europe and the U.S. In 2006, RDR issued the first ever recording of several unfinished piano sonatas by Beethoven in performances prepared from facsimiles of his manuscripts, and other releases have included the piano music of Kirchner, von Sahr, Rosenfeld, Huber, Alkan and Jensen. The pianist on the recordings and director of the project is Professor John Kersey, who is President of EAU.
