Recommended Description Reviews Author Bio Further Information. One hundred years ago, Mark Twain published a bestselling account of his epic journey around the globe. Witty, shrewd and entertaining, Following the Equator offered an unrivalled portrait of a world on the brink of a new century. Exactly 100 years after the trip, Granada Television is proposing to repeat the journey to observe Twain's world on the edge of a new century, and a new millennium; to see what is left of the old ways, and what has replaced them. The chosen traveller, Sir Peter Ustinov, will be sticking close to Twain's original route. On the good days that might mean the world's most luxurious cruise liner. On the bad days it could be the meat train from Bombay. We are Rated Excellent on Trustpilot Here's what you say about us. Here's what you say about Planet Ustinov - Michael Waldman.

Related topics Criticism of religion Ethics in religion Exegesis Faith and rationality History of religions Religion and science Religious philosophy Theology. Roughly, it is the view that there are independent moral standards: some actions are right or wrong in themselves, independent of God's commands. Euthyphro's final suggestion is that holiness is a kind of trading with Euthyphro 1st edition gods, where we give them sacrifices and they grant our prayers. Socrates points out that if both options were true, they together would yield a vicious circle, with the gods loving the pious because it is the Euthyphro 1st edition, and the pious being the pious because the gods love it. Positions Aesthetics Formalism Institutionalism Aesthetic response. At this point the dilemma surfaces. Early life. Euthyphro's first definition of piety is what he is doing now, that is, prosecuting his father for manslaughter 5d. Clearly, the answer is again the latter, something becomes beloved when it is loved. Something is a meter long inasmuch as it is the same length as the standard meter bar, and likewise, something is good inasmuch as it approximates God. Essentialists apply labels to things because they possess certain essential qualities that make them what they are. Is something "beloved" in and of itself like being big or redor does it become beloved when it is loved by someone?

    The Playwright As Filmmaker: History, Theory and Practice, Summary of a Completed Thesis by Portfolio OTHNIEL SMITH, University of Glamorgan

    Networking Knowledge: Journal of the MeCCSA Postgraduate Network, Vol 1, No 2 (2007) ARTICLE The Playwright as Filmmaker: History, Theory and Practice, Summary of a completed thesis by portfolio OTHNIEL SMITH, University of Glamorgan ABSTRACT This paper summarises my doctoral research into the work of dramatists who became filmmakers – specifically Preston Sturges, Rainer Werner Fassbinder, David Mamet, and Neil Labute. I began with the hypothesis that there is something distinctive about the work of filmmakers who have a background in writing for text-based theatre, an arena where the authorship is, on the whole, not a vexatious issue, as is the case in commercial cinema. Through case studies involving textual and contextual analyses of their films, I found common threads linking their work, in respect both of their working methods and their approach to text and performance. From this, I evolved a theoretical position involving the development of a tentative ‘dogme’ designed to smooth the path between writing plays and making films, and produced short no- budget videos illustrating it. KEYWORDS Theatre/film, Dogme, theoretical practice, Mamet, Fassbinder. Introduction The aim of this project – a thesis by portfolio, completed at the now-defunct Film Academy at the University of Glamorgan – was to contribute to that area within film theory where creativity is taken seriously as a field of study; an attempt to reconcile theory with artistry, without attempting to theorise artistry. The ‘theatrical’ is often characterised as the ‘other’ of the cinematic, within both popular and scholarly discourse. My intention was to examines the interface between the two forms, and isolate those aspects of the theatrical aesthetic which can be profitably employed within cinema, looking at the issue from the perspective of the working dramatist – my background being as a writer for theatre, radio and television.
  • Murder on the Orient Express: a Return Ticket Wieland Schwanebeck

    Murder on the Orient Express: a Return Ticket Wieland Schwanebeck

    This is an accepted manuscript version of an article published in Adaptation 11.1 (2018) https://doi.org/10.1093/adaptation/apx025 Film Review: Murder on the Orient Express: A Return Ticket Wieland Schwanebeck Murder on the Orient Express. Dir. Kenneth Branagh. Perf. Kenneth Branagh, Michelle Pfeiffer, Judi Dench, Johnny Depp. Fox, 2017. In the first scene of Kenneth Branagh’s big-screen adaptation of Murder on the Orient Express (1934)—one of Agatha Christie’s three most popular novels, according to a 2015 poll (Flood)—famous Belgian sleuth Hercule Poirot plagues the staff members of a Jerusalem hotel with his unusual request for two eggs of identical size. He goes so far as to apply a ruler to his breakfast, only to conclude that it does not meet his requirements. The scene serves as a neat summary of the character that will likely sit well with hardcore Christie admirers—the author famously had Captain Hastings characterize Poirot as a man so meticulous that ‘a speck of dust would have caused him more pain than a bullet wound’ (1920/2007: 14)—and the shot of Branagh (the film’s star as well as its director) cowering behind his breakfast table and scrutinizing the eggs sets up Murder on the Orient Express as an adaptation that literally goes ab ovo. It invokes the initial description of the character in Christie’s debut novel, The Mysterious Affair at Styles (‘His head was exactly the shape of an egg’, 1920/2007: 14), and at the same time it is indicative of how the film reboots Christie for the twenty-first century, playing up Poirot’s tics while also humanizing him, an adaptive policy that has worked wonders for Sherlock Holmes.

    MONTY PYTHON at 50 , a Month-Long Season Celebra

    Tuesday 16 July 2019, London. The BFI today announces full details of IT’S… MONTY PYTHON AT 50, a month-long season celebrating Monty Python – their roots, influences and subsequent work both as a group, and as individuals. The season, which takes place from 1 September – 1 October at BFI Southbank, forms part of the 50th anniversary celebrations of the beloved comedy group, whose seminal series Monty Python’s Flying Circus first aired on 5th October 1969. The season will include all the Monty Python feature films; oddities and unseen curios from the depths of the BFI National Archive and from Michael Palin’s personal collection of super 8mm films; back-to-back screenings of the entire series of Monty Python’s Flying Circus in a unique big-screen outing; and screenings of post-Python TV (Fawlty Towers, Out of the Trees, Ripping Yarns) and films (Jabberwocky, A Fish Called Wanda, Time Bandits, Wind in the Willows and more). There will also be rare screenings of pre-Python shows At Last the 1948 Show and Do Not Adjust Your Set, both of which will be released on BFI DVD on Monday 16 September, and a free exhibition of Python-related material from the BFI National Archive and The Monty Python Archive, and a Python takeover in the BFI Shop. Reflecting on the legacy and approaching celebrations, the Pythons commented: “Python has survived because we live in an increasingly Pythonesque world. Extreme silliness seems more relevant now than it ever was.” IT’S… MONTY PYTHON AT 50 programmers Justin Johnson and Dick Fiddy said: “We are delighted to share what is undoubtedly one of the most absurd seasons ever presented by the BFI, but even more delighted that it has been put together with help from the Pythons themselves and marked with their golden stamp of silliness.

About the Series: For over years Oxford World's Classics has made available the broadest spectrum of literature from around the globe. Particular characteristics of matter, such as water's capacity to extinguish fire, was then related to shape and size of the constituent triangles. Though each function individually, the ultimate design is one of interconnectivity. And this is reason why the names of the ancients have been preserved to us and not their actions. Now a large family of distinguished sons sprang from Atlas; d but it was the eldest, who, as king, always passed on the scepter to the eldest of his sons, and thus they preserved the sovereignty for many generations; and the wealth they possessed was so immense that the like had never been seen before in any royal house nor will ever easily be seen again; and they were provided with everything of which provision was needed either in the city or throughout the rest of the country. We must endeavor next to repeat the account of the rest of the country, a what its natural character was, and in what fashion it was ordered. But I should like to make my meaning clearer, if Timaeus, you will follow me. Welliver, Warman Timaeus and Critias by Plato ,. Barefoot in Athens film Socrates film.
