The young man mentioned was not the only one who found himself fortu- nately able to make a choice of several jobs—or positions, as we used to call them—in the midst of the worst unem- ployment situation in the country's his- tory. Many big corporations last June were actually going to colleges and dropping offers into laps of a few hand- picked men even while compelled to get rid of other employes.

    ESPERANTO VERSION 1.0 - 04-FEB-2019 Translator's note: - The given names were chosen to be translated, so they give an Esperanto colour to the story, they sound more familiar to the Esperanto readers (from different language backgrounds) and they could fit better to the grammar. The same is traditionally used for classical names, always represented in their Esperanto forms (e.g. Lukrecio, Demosteno). The family names were kept as in the original. "Bait" by Iago Faustus, Ph.D. part of the series Fabulae Atroces Fausti [email protected] [email protected] +1-718-440-1873 1 Special translator©s edition of the script. 2 Overall production note: This script represents a comic-book representation of a sort of obscene nature documentary, and so a number of elements will appear as panels representing camera shots in that documentary. The documentary has a "narrator" who will appear from time-to-time in a CAPTION element (CAPTION – PSEUDO-NARRATION). At other times there will be "interviews" with people knowledgeable about the events this "documentary" is about. In the course of these interviews, an unseen interviewer will occasionally interpose questions of the interview subjects. These will be handled through speech balloons attributed to an "Unseen interviewer." When the interviewees speak a foreign language, that language will appear in their speech balloons and "subtitles" will appear below to "translate" what they are saying. Also, "Subtitles" will also appear from time to time to indicate the "source" of various "footage" that the documentary makers made us of in putting the documentary together. Notes for the translator: Much of the material in the comic that follows consists of instructions to the artist who illustrated it.

  • The Physicality of Rubens‟ Human Bodies: Visuality And
    THE PHYSICALITY OF RUBENS‟ HUMAN BODIES: VISUALITY AND MEDICINE IN EARLY MODERN EUROPE AIKATERINI GEORGOULIA TWO VOLUMES VOLUME I PH.D. UNIVERSITY OF YORK HISTORY OF ART SEPTEMBER 2014 ABSTRACT This thesis presents new textual and visual source material for our understanding of Rubens‟ painted human bodies. It identifies hitherto unexamined socio-cultural contexts, as well as contests and revises scholarly assumptions. I maintain that Rubens‟ bodies were informed by early modern scientific practices and medical discourses. The central argument is that Rubens‟ understanding of human physicality and the contemporary engagement with basic biological processes converge in his painted bodies. The medical view of the body as a psychosomatic unity – a nexus of material and immaterial properties – opens a new investigative avenue to studies of cultural materialism. The exploration of the enmeshment of materiality and immateriality gives an insight into how and in what ways matter and image acquire meaning. I argue that the immaterial characteristics of the human body are visually integrated in canvas and paper, pigments, oils and chalk. By exploring visual and textual sources, this study proposes a larger methodological framework. It brings together visuality, materiality and textuality, providing a cross-referential reading of text and image, and using both of them as core primary material with an argumentative voice. The analysis of the visual case studies (portraiture, history and religious painting) does not draw on a larger pre-determined and extraneous context, but context is produced by the image. Therefore, I perceive context as multifarious and wide-ranging. My approach responds to the previous lack of a broader study of Rubens‟ bodies via a medical perspective.

Hell, it's too far away from anywhere to ever amount to anything!” Little did this man of money expect that the giant white pine of that virgin land would go into the building of most of the homes of his native Chicago and other thriving young cities of the middle west.
