  • ENG 351 Lecture 33 1 Let's Finish Discussing Gwendolyn Brooks. I
    ENG 351 Lecture 33 1 Let’s finish discussing Gwendolyn Brooks. I would like your indulgence to make up for last time. I really was blind. It was — and one of you saved my life, with my visual migraine which sent me into something of a panic. Something else I’ve learned is you should never — you should never read a poem in public that you haven’t read for many years. It can sneak up on you and kick you, and that’s what this poem did. I haven’t looked at The Chicago Defender poem for a long, long, long time. And here I am, half blinded, and then I got emotional at the end of it. So I apologize for that and see if I can get through this with a decent reading. That happened to me one time before with a poem called “April Inventory” by W. D. Snodgrass. And sometimes, you know, poetry has a — has a way of getting to you, whether you want it to or not. But let me — it’s a good poem. It’s only a few minutes long. If you can bear with it, I wanted to get that on in the lesson. This was the poem that I asked Gwendolyn Brooks why she didn’t read it while she was here and she said she no longer liked the ending of it. So I particularly want you to pay attention to the ending of it. She asked me why I liked it and I said because I’m from Little Rock, and then she inquired, “How old were you in 1957?” And when I told her I was eleven, it was okay.

  • Dana 1.10 (February 1905)
    DANA AN IRISH MAGAZINE OF INDEPENDENT THOUGHT CHURCH DISESTABLISHMENT IN FRANCE AND IRELAND. I. IF anyone peruses, even cursorily, the comments in the Irish Catholic press on the present political situation in France, he will obtain an interesting and instructive light on the consistency and spirit of justice which the clerical temper connotes. It is not more than a generation since Irish Catholics were loudly calling out for the disestablish- ment of the Irish Protestant Church. The arguments then used, quite legitimately, were that that Church ministered only to a section of the people, and that in any case it was wrong to take public monies for the endowment of particular creeds. The Irish Catholics were taxed to support a Church in which they did not believe, whilst supporting their own Church voluntarily, and they naturally and properly protested. And the doctrine then in favour in Ireland was that the State, as such, had no right to meddle with religion, which was a private affair that should derive its funds from the free offerings of its own children. Now observe the case in France. The Catholic Church there is in much the same position as was the Protestant Church in Ireland. There are naturally some slight differences, with which I shall presently deal. But the broad fact remains that under the Concordat, the Church obtains public monies from the public purse ; though, of course, she resents public control. For a long time, however, it has been obvious that great numbers of the French people have ceased to believe in this Church or to desire its ministrations.

  • Jokes So Effective
    CHAPTER TWO But Seriously, Folks ... One of the biggest mistakes an improviser can make is attempting to be funny. In fact, if an audience senses that any performer is deliberately trying to be funny, that performer may have made his task more difficult (this isn't always the case for an established comedian playing before a sympathetic crowd — comics like Jack Benny and Red Skelton were notorious for breaking up during their sketches, and their audiences didn't seem to mind it a bit. A novice performer isn't usually as lucky, unless he's managed to win the crowd over to his side). When an actor gives the unspoken message "Watch this, folks, it's really going to be funny," the audience often reads this as "This is going to be so funny, I'm going to make you laugh whether you want to or not." Human nature being what it is, many audience members respond to this challenge with "Oh, yeah? Just go ahead and try, because I'm not laughing," to the performer's horror. A much easier approach for improvisers is to be sincere and honest, drawing the audience into the scene rather than reaching out and trying to pull them along. Improvisers can be relaxed and natural, knowing that if they are sincere, the audience will be more receptive to them. Audience members laugh at things they can relate to, but they cannot empathize if the performers are insincere. Ars est celare artem, as the ancient Romans would say: the art is in concealing the art.

  • DICKENS on SCREEN, BFI Southbank's Unprecedented
    PRESS RELEASE 12/08 DICKENS ON SCREEN AT BFI SOUTHBANK IN FEBRUARY AND MARCH 2012 DICKENS ON SCREEN, BFI Southbank’s unprecedented retrospective of film and TV adaptations, moves into February and March and continues to explore how the work of one of Britain’s best loved storytellers has been adapted and interpreted for the big and small screens – offering the largest retrospective of Dickens on film and television ever staged. February 7 marks the 200th anniversary of Charles Dickens’ birth and BFI Southbank will host a celebratory evening in partnership with Film London and The British Council featuring the world premiere of Chris Newby’s Dickens in London, the innovative and highly distinctive adaptation of five radio plays by Michael Eaton that incorporates animation, puppetry and contemporary footage, and a Neil Brand score. The day will also feature three newly commissioned short films inspired by the man himself. Further highlights in February include a special presentation of Christine Edzard’s epic film version of Little Dorrit (1988) that will reunite some of the cast and crew members including Derek Jacobi, a complete screening of the rarely seen 1960 BBC production of Barnaby Rudge, as well as day long screenings of the definitive productions of Hard Times (1977) and Martin Chuzzlewit (1994). In addition, there will be the unique opportunity to experience all eight hours of the RSC’s extraordinary 1982 production of Nicholas Nickleby, including a panel discussion with directors Trevor Nunn and John Caird, actor David Threlfall and its adaptor, David Edgar. Saving some of the best for last, the season concludes in March with a beautiful new restoration of the very rare Nordisk version of Our Mutual Friend (1921) and a two-part programme of vintage, American TV adaptations of Dickens - most of which have never been screened in this country before and feature legendary Hollywood stars.

  • Shakespeare on Film, Video & Stage
    William Shakespeare on Film, Video and Stage Titles in bold red font with an asterisk (*) represent the crème de la crème – first choice titles in each category. These are the titles you’ll probably want to explore first. Titles in bold black font are the second- tier – outstanding films that are the next level of artistry and craftsmanship. Once you have experienced the top tier, these are where you should go next. They may not represent the highest achievement in each genre, but they are definitely a cut above the rest. Finally, the titles which are in a regular black font constitute the rest of the films within the genre. I would be the first to admit that some of these may actually be worthy of being “ranked” more highly, but it is a ridiculously subjective matter.

  • Poet's Corner in Westminster Abbey
    Poet’s Corner in Westminster Abbey Alton Barbour Abstract: Beginning with a brief account of the history of Westminster Abbey and its physical structure, this paper concentrates on the British writers honored in the South Transept or Poet’s Corner section. It identifies those recognized who are no longer thought to be outstanding, those now understood to be outstanding who are not recognized, and provides an alphabetical listing of the honored members of dead poet’s society, Britain’s honored writers, along with the works for which they are best known. Key terms: Poet’s Corner, Westminster Abbey, South Transept. CHRISTIANITY RETURNS AND CHURCHES ARE BUILT A walk through Westminster Abbey is a walk through time and through English history from the time of the Norman conquest. Most of that journey is concerned with the crowned heads of England, but not all. One section of the Abbey has been dedicated to the major figures in British literature. This paper is concerned mainly with the major poets, novelists and dramatists of Britain, but that concentration still requires a little historical background. For over nine centuries, English monarchs have been both crowned and buried in Westminster Abbey. The Angles, Saxons and Jutes who conquered and occupied England in the mid 5th century were pagans. But, as the story goes, Pope Gregory saw two fair-haired boys in the Roman market who were being sold as slaves and asked who they were. He was told that they were Angles. He replied that they looked more like angels (angeli more than angli) and determined that these pagan people should be converted to Christianity.
