  • Any Gods out There? Perceptions of Religion from Star Wars and Star Trek
    Journal of Religion & Film Volume 7 Issue 2 October 2003 Article 3 October 2003 Any Gods Out There? Perceptions of Religion from Star Wars and Star Trek John S. Schultes Vanderbilt University, [email protected] Follow this and additional works at: https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/jrf Recommended Citation Schultes, John S. (2003) "Any Gods Out There? Perceptions of Religion from Star Wars and Star Trek," Journal of Religion & Film: Vol. 7 : Iss. 2 , Article 3. Available at: https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/jrf/vol7/iss2/3 This Article is brought to you for free and open access by DigitalCommons@UNO. It has been accepted for inclusion in Journal of Religion & Film by an authorized editor of DigitalCommons@UNO. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Any Gods Out There? Perceptions of Religion from Star Wars and Star Trek Abstract Hollywood films and eligionr have an ongoing rocky relationship, especially in the realm of science fiction. A brief comparison study of the two giants of mainstream sci-fi, Star Wars and Star Trek reveals the differing attitudes toward religion expressed in the genre. Star Trek presents an evolving perspective, from critical secular humanism to begrudging personalized faith, while Star Wars presents an ambiguous mythological foundation for mystical experience that is in more ways universal. This article is available in Journal of Religion & Film: https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/jrf/vol7/iss2/3 Schultes: Any Gods Out There? Science Fiction has come of age in the 21st century. From its humble beginnings, "Sci- Fi" has been used to express the desires and dreams of those generations who looked up at the stars and imagined life on other planets and space travel, those who actually saw the beginning of the space age, and those who still dare to imagine a universe with wonders beyond what we have today.

    2017 Faith and the Arts: Creativity, Culture, and Calling dance • fiction• film• graphics • music • paint • poetry • sculpture• theatre• The 2017 Faith and the Arts Conference at Evangel University explores dynamic relationships between Christian faith and the arts. We are inspired by the model of Bezalel, a craftsman artistically gifted by God, and the first individual in the Bible said to be “filled with the Spirit of God.” The conference provides opportunity for participants to think about the ways the arts reflect the God who created and pronounced his work “good.” The inaugural Faith and the Arts Conference is scheduled for September 22-23, 2017. The theme is Creativity, Culture, and Calling. God invites us to exercise our divinely granted creativity to explore the human condition and express the depths of the individual soul. In the creation mandate (Genesis 1), God commands us to be responsible for the earth and to foster a culture beneficial to all creatures; Christian faith reaches to all elements of human life, so the divine calling to reflect the image of God—the Divine Creator—should be nurtured especially in those worKing in the arts.

Posted: Mon., Dec. 28, 2009, 8:00pm PT Adler, McCarthy engulfed in WWII 'Fog' Producers option sci-fi horror comicbook 'Night and Fog' By TATIANA SIEGEL Producers Gil Adler and Shane McCarthy have optioned the sci-fi horror comicbook "Night and Fog" from publisher Studio 407. No stranger to comicbook-based material, Adler has produced such graphic-based fare as "Constantine," "Superman Returns" and the upcoming Brandon Routh starrer "Dead of Night," which is based on the popular Italian title "Dylan Dog." This material is definitely in my strike zone in more ways than one," Adler said, noting his prior role as a producer of such horror projects as the "Tales From the Crypt" series. "But what really appealed to me wasn't so much the genre trappings but rather the characters that really drive this story." Set during WWII, story revolves around an infectious mist unleashed on a military base that transforms its victims into preternatural creatures of the night. But when the survivors try to kill them, they adapt and change into something even more horrific and unstoppable. Studio 407's Alex Leung will also serve as a producer on "Night and Fog." Adler and McCarthy are also teaming to produce an adaptation of "Havana Nocturne" along with Eric Eisner. They also recently optioned Ken Bruen's crime thriller "Tower." "Night and Fog" is available in comic shops in the single-issue format and digitally on iPhone through Comixology.

  • George Takei on "Star Trek" by John C
    Sulu Speaks : George Takei on "Star Trek" By John C. Tibbetts TIBBETTS INTRODUCTION TO THE INTERVIEW: The second filmin the "Star Trek" series, Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan, is now playing to packed theaters across the nation. The first film, guided by Gene Roddenberry and Robert Wise, was a thoughtfulexcursion into some of the philosophical implications of the original television series. The second film,according to George Takei, is "high adventure" all the way. Shooting began on Stage 9 at Paramount on November 9, 1981; principal photography concluded on January 29, 1982. It was directed by Nicholas (Time After Time) Meyer, scripted by Jack B. Sowards from a story by Harve Bennett and Jack Sowards, and produced by Harve Bennett and Robert Sallin. Needless to say, Mr. George Takei is delighted at the continuing success story of the "Star Trek" franchise.. George is a multitalented performer who, long before he donned the uniform and personna of "Sulu," had demonstrated a flair for the theatre. His first professional job in film entertainment was as a voice dubber forthe classic Japanese science fiction film,Rodan (1957). He appeared before the movie cameras for the first time while a student at UCLA. The film was Ice Palace (1960) with Richard Burton, Robert Ryan and Carolyn Jones. He also debuted on television for an episode of Playhouse 90 at this, same time. Then came many guest shots on other television series, including Hawaiian Eye, Maverick, 77 Sunset Strip, and Adventures in Paradise. The role of "Sulu," the helmsman for the U S. S.

  • Reading Narratives of Specular Mourning in Victorian Fiction
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Sydney eScholarship ‘Distempered Visions’: Reading Narratives of Specular Mourning in Victorian Fiction A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF ARTS AND SOCIAL SCIENCES IN CANDIDACY FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY THE DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH BY SOPHIE FRAZER MARCH 2018 For the award of a PhD Department of English The University of Sydney 1 Abstract This thesis questions the phenomenological force and function of mourning in the fiction of Charlotte Brontë and George Eliot, bringing together models of contemporary visuality with modalities of loss, to emphasise a dialectic of affective pain as intimate vision. While Victorian visual culture has been substantially addressed by recent scholarship, there remains a paucity of investigation into what I read as an optic chiasmus of altered modes of seeing and modes of feeling. With a focus on two of the key novelists of the period, I have selected four novels that are fascinated by the nature of warped vision and blindness, questioning how literature might depict mourning in a world newly crowded by the visual. From this starting point, I examine the ways in which both novelists appropriated optical tropes to articulate the lived experience of a traumatised consciousness. The mourning subject becomes the site of specular, phantasmal inquiry in their works, and thus my own method follows the conditions of this connection. This particularised account of the themes of loss and mourning has not been significantly addressed in the scholarship, despite the fact that all four texts explicitly emphasise subjective trauma.
