![]() ![]() It traces and compares the development of this trend in films from the United States, Europe, China, Latin America, South Africa, and the Middle East. This volume follows the shift in the representation of torture over the past decade, specifically in documentary, action, and political films. In these films, torture is devoid of any redeeming qualities, represented as an exercise in brutal senselessness carried out by authoritarian regimes and institutions. Since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, scenes of brutality and torture in mainstream comedies, dramatic narratives, and action films appear for little other reason than to titillate and delight. ![]() ![]() In most cases, torture was cast as the act of a desperate and depraved individual, and the viewer was more likely to identify with the victim rather than the tor.

Then, out of nowhere, the tailor is knocked off his horse by a raven, who then transforms into a hideous dog, his mouth writhing with its own innards. ![]() It was dank, wet and gloomy he couldn’t wait to get home and sit in front of a blazing fire. ![]() One winter, in the dark days of King Richard II, a tailor was riding home on the road from Gilling to Ampleforth. Bright red blood on two of the trees and three red crowns stand out against the dark green background.

Her latest books include the middle grade novel HOPE’S PATH TO GLORY, and a picture book illustrated by James E. I’m still dreaming and Jerdine is still writing. Her body of work had all the depth and breadth I dreamed of someday having. Two of her books were in our family’s regular reading rotation ( In My Momma’s Kitchen and Raising Dragons), and we had checked out several others from the library (shout outs to Harvey Potter’s Balloon Farm and Hewitt Anderson’s Great Big Life).

This course is designed to introduce graduate students in a broad variety of disciplines, departments, and programs to the key theories, methods, and issues in history from below, from its origin in the 1930s, through the New Left of the 1960s and 1970s, to the present. “History from Below” – also called “Peoples’ History” and “Radical History” – has been an important part of the appearance and spectacular growth of social history over the past half century and one of the most important developments in the discipline and profession of history. By Marcus Rediker at the University of Pittsburgh ![]() ![]() ![]() The language is always the same “Sales on (insert comic book title) rivaled Uncanny X-Men”. During this run, which lasted from 1975-1991, Claremont took what was originally considered a second-rate Fantastic Four knock-off and turned it into the gold standard to which all other series were measured against.Įven when other seminal runs were lauded with acclaim, be it Frank Miller’s Daredevil, John Byrne’s Fantastic Four, or Todd Macfarlane’s Amazing Spider-Man, they were all compared against Claremont’s Uncanny X-Men. He took a comic book that had been cancelled for five years, made it a monthly series, and then turned it into the highest selling comic book on the market. ![]() ![]() Like some mad alchemist, frenetically creating mystery elixirs and potions in search of forming something out of nothing, Chris Claremont singlehandedly forged the modern day X-Men universe from almost nothing at all during his initial 16 year run as writer on Uncanny X-Men. ![]() ![]() ![]() Against the wall of landscape that leads up to her house, the crippled body of an ageless woman seems trapped, imprisoned by the very emptiness of the earth. One of them, Christina’s World, now 15 years old, is one of the most durable and disquieting images of 20th century America. He has painted eight temperas of her or her house, a decrepit three-story clapboard pile atop a knoll near the Maine seacoast. The most famous of these is a woman named Christina Olson. ![]() TIME Magazine, however, had a different take on the painting in a cover story on Wyeth in 1963, calling the work, “One of the most durable and disquieting images of 20th century America,” and explaining the story behind the picture: I thought, ‘Boy, is this one ever a flat tire.'” Of his most famous painting, which now hangs in the Museum of Modern Art in New York, Wyeth said, “When I first painted it in 1948, Christina’s World hung all summer in my house in Maine and nobody particularly reacted to it. LIFE would feature Wyeth, who died in 2009, and his paintings many times over the years, including extensive articles in 1953 and a 1965 profile that featured 22 pages of his favorite paintings and a first-person interview by Richard Meryman, who became a good friend of Wyeth’s and went on to write a biography of the painter. ![]() ![]() What’s unique here is the setting, which calls upon foreign mythologies and an Imperial Asian caste system that Kristoff marries with an interspecies, paranormal twist. “Stormdancer” is not a young-adult title, though its heroine is a teenager and the book features many of the genre hallmarks made famous by Suzanne Collins’ “The Hunger Games”: A polluted, overcrowded landscape prompts a sharp social divide that sows the seeds of rebellion and, of course, a love triangle involving a brave young woman who doesn’t understand her attractiveness. But it’s this inventive juxtaposition that makes “Stormdancer” such a thrilling addition to the increasingly tired yet continuously expanding dystopian scene. It’s startling to witness a country that so reveres nature presented in such an environmentally compromised position, as it is in the kickoff to Jay Kristoff’s “The Lotus War” series. ![]() ![]() ![]() With its geisha girls in gas masks and canvas blimps spewing black exhaust as they chug across the sky, “Stormdancer” paints a vivid picture of a decrepit, steampunk Japan. ![]() |
