    May 1, 1969 Vol. 146 No. 18 REVIEW AND HERALD • GENERAL CHURCH PAPER OF THE SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS "Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God." Psalm 90:2. Last-Day Events-1 The Great Day "The great day of the Lord is near, near and hastening fast" (Zeph. 1:14, R.S.V.) Is ENTURIES ago Zephaniah proclaimed a message identical to that which Seventh-day Adventists C have heralded to the world since 1844. Note the prophet's further somber and tragic pen picture concerning the times: "A day of wrath is that day, a day of distress and anguish, a day of ruin and Near devastation" (Zeph. 1:15, 16, RS.V.). Then he admon- ishes God's people to "come together and hold assembly, . seek the Lord, . seek righteousness, seek humility" (Zeph. 2:1-3, R.S.V.). And to those who respond to this invitation, Zepha- niah promises, "The Lord, your God, is in your midst, a warrior who gives victory; he will rejoice over you with gladness. At that time I will bring you home" (Zeph. By RALPH S. WATTS 3:17, 20, R.S.V.). (Italics supplied.) "His [Zephaniah's] prophecies of impending judgment upon Judah apply with equal force to the judgments that are to fall upon an impenitent world at the time of the second advent of Christ."—Prophets and Kings, p. 389. What a glorious time in which to live—the days pre- ceding "the great day of the Lord"! Never has knowledge reached such stupendous propor- tions as it has for this present generation—knowledge which, if rightly used, could help prepare the world for "the great day of the Lord." But it is a sobering reality that the press and other news media almost continually blare.

    DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5007/ 2175-8026.2021.e75488 À LUZ DE UMA REVOLTA: A FESTA E O AFTER DE THE BOYS IN THE BAND Markus Volker Lasch1* Renato Barreto Pereira1** 1Universidade Federal de São Paulo, São Paulo, SP, Brasil Resumo Este artigo analisa a transformação na recepção crítica da peça The Boys in the Band, de Mart Crowley, enfocando-se o período transcorrido entre o lançamento da peça, em 1968, e sua versão cinematográfica, em 1970. Parte-se de uma breve contextualização e análise dos aspectos pioneiros da obra e de suas adaptações, assim como de suas reavaliações suscitadas pelos acontecimentos históricos circundantes, em especial à Revolta de Stonewall, marco para o Movimento LGBTQI+, ocorrida em 1969. No contexto de análise da recepção do texto original de Crowley, serviram de apoio reflexões de Hans Robert Jauss sobre o horizonte de expectativas dos leitores e aquele suscitado por uma obra literária. Palavras-chave: Teatro; Cinema; Movimento Gay; Adaptação; Horizonte de expectativas. IN LIGHT OF A RIOT: THE PARTY AND AFTER-PARTY OF THE BOYS IN THE BAND Abstract This article analyzes the transformation in the critical reception of the play The Boys in the Band, by playwright Mart Crowley, and of its cinemato- graphic version, focusing on the short period between the launch of the play in 1968 and the film in 1970. It starts with a brief historical contex- tualization and an analysis of the pioneering aspects of the work and its adaptations, as well as its critical reevaluations raised by the weight of the surrounding historical events, in particular the Stonewall riots, an impor- tant milestone for the LGBTQI+ Movement worldwide, which took place in 1969.

The overview serves as an introduction to the six studies and summarizes their emphases and findings. In the first study, Gerbner analyzes and compares the programming of 1969 with that of 1967 and 1968, dealing with the quantity and quality of v3olence. In the second study, Clark and Blankenburg examine violence on TV and match their results against various measures of environmental violence. Greenberg and Gordon obtained data on what is perceived as violence in the third study, and Cantor discusses the factors influencing the selection of content for children's programs for the fourth study. In the fifth study, Baldwin and Lewis report on how top professionals responsible for producing adult drama perceive their role in regard to violent content.
