    | Juuso Tervo | Death is all things we see awake | | Presented at Skills of Economy sessions, Kiasma Museum of Contemporary Art, February 20 2016 | Death is all things we see awake; all we see asleep is sleep Juuso Tervo, Postdoctoral Researcher, Department of Art, Aalto University Presented in Kiasma at Skills of Economy Sessions, February 20, 2016 Abstract: This talk offers a collection of vignettes that position the relation between life and death as a central but unsolvable question for theorization in art and politics. Indeed, what to think of death in times when, yet again, the end of the world as we know it seems to be near? Introduction In his seminal essay “Necropolitics,” philosopher and political scientist Achille Mbembe writes, contemporary experiences of human destruction suggest that it is possible to develop a reading of politics, sovereignty, and the subject different from the one we inherited from the philosophical discourse of modernity. Instead of considering reason as the truth of the subject, we can look to other foundational categories that are less abstract and more tactile, such as life and death. (Mbembe, 2003, p. 14) In “Necropolitics,” Mbembe famously extends Michel Foucault’s thesis according to which modern sovereignty finds its basis in biopower, that is, that human life as such has become the primary domain for exercising productive power (“making live and letting die” [biopower] contra “letting live and making die” [authoritarian power in Roman law]). Mbembe argues that in addition to examining the various ways that biopower makes life, we should also pay attention how it manifests itself as a systematic destruction of human beings (as necropower) (for Mbembe, the history of colonies is the primary example of necropower as sovereignty.

  • MINIREVIEW Amphibian Metamorphosis As a Model For
    Cell Research (1998), 8, 259-272 MINIREVIEW Amphibian metamorphosis as a model for studying the developmental actions of thyroid hormone TATA JAMSHED R National Institute for Medical Research, The Ridgeway, Mill Hill, London NW7 1AA, U.K. Tel: +44-181-959 3666 Fax: +44-181-913 8583 E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT The thyroid hormones L-thyroxine and triiodo-L- thyronine have profound effects on postembryonic devel- opment of most vertebrates. Analysis of their action in mammals is vitiated by the exposure of the developing foetus to a number of maternal factors which do not allow one to specifically define the role of thyroid hormone (TH) or that of other hormones and factors that modulate its action. Amphibian metamorphosis is obligatorily depen- dent on TH which can initiate all the diverse physiological manifestations of this postembryonic developmental pro- cess (morphogenesis, cell death, re-structuring, etc.) in free-living embryos and larvae of most anurans. This arti- cle will first describe the salient features of metamorphosis and its control by TH and other hormones. Emphasis will be laid on the key role played by TH receptor (TR), in particular the phenomenon of TR gene autoinduction, in initiating the developmental action of TH. Finally, it will be argued that the findings on the control of amphibian metamorphosis enhance our understanding of the regula- tion of postembryonic development by TH in other verte- brate species. Key words: Thyroid hormone, metamorphosis, postembryonic development, thyroid hor- mone receptor, autoinduction. 259 Amphibian metamorphosis and thyroid hormone action INTRODUCTION Well before the chemical identification of L-thyroxine (T4) and 3, 3' 5-triiodo-L- thyronine (T3) as thyroid hormones, the secretions of thyroid gland were known to regulate growth and development in a variety of vertebrates[1, 2].

  • Representation of Identities in Neil Gaiman's the Sandman
    SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW: REPRESENTATION OF IDENTITIES IN NEIL GAIMAN’S THE SANDMAN Andrés Romero Jódar Universidad de Zaragoza ABSTRACT Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman is a graphic novel that explores the complexities of reality and identity. The main asset of this work is its presentation of a plurality of narratives that, together, create not only a completely new world vision according to comic-book stand- ards, but also a novel conception of cultural identity. This essay aims to analyze how The Sandman deals with identity construction as fashioned by two different but related no- tions: on the one hand, identity as the outcome of the confrontation between old concep- tions of the world and new roles, duties and values; on the other hand, identity as a change of situation, as the individual wilfully escaping from old masks that imprison the self inside predetermined patterns of behaviour. KEY WORDS: Comic-book, graphic novel, Neil Gaiman, The Sandman, identity. RESUMEN The Sandman de Neil Gaiman es una novela gráfica que explora las complejidades de la 149 realidad y de la identidad. El principal valor de esta obra es la presentación de una plurali- dad de narrativas que, en conjunto, crean tanto una visión del mundo completamente nueva respecto a los cánones del cómic, así como una concepción novel de la identidad cultural. El objetivo de este ensayo es analizar cómo The Sandman trata la construcción de la identidad como resultado de dos conceptos diferentes pero relacionados: por un lado, identidad como el resultado de la confrontación entre viejas concepciones del mundo y nuevos roles, deberes y valores; por otro lado, identidad como un cambio de situación, en el que el individuo escapa voluntariamente de viejas máscaras que aprisionan al sujeto dentro de modelos de comportamiento predeterminados.

  • Preludes and Nocturnes: Questions for Discussion and Writing
    The Sandman: Preludes & Nocturnes: Questions for Discussion and Writing Chapter 1: “Sleep of the Just” 1. Who is summoned and imprisoned, and by what means? What consequences does his imprisonment apparently have? 2. Who are his captors, and what was their original intention? Describe Roderick Burgess and Alex Burgess. 3. What purpose(s) do the stories of Ellie Marsten, Daniel Bustamonte, and Unity Kinkaid serve? 4. Who is John Hathaway? What happens to his suicide note, and what are the consequences of its destruction? 5. Who are the Endless, and what do we learn about them in this chapter? What names is the imprisoned one known by? 6. The name Morpheus is derived from the Greek word for “shape”; in English, morph can also mean “to transform or be transformed.” Why is Morpheus an appropriate name for the god of dreams; how are the meanings of these words interrelated? 7. Describe Morpheus (also called Dream) based on his actions in this chapter—his character, his values and interests, and his powers. What punishment does he inflict on Alex Burgess, and what does this suggest about him? 8. “To sleep the sleep of the just” (just as in justice) is an idiom suggesting a deep, easy sleep made possible by a clean conscience. How do you think the title of the chapter relates to the story so far? Who is Wesley Dodds, and why does he sleep the sleep of the just? 9. What ideas and themes does the story seem to be exploring so far? Chapter 2: “Imperfect Hosts” 1.

  • Lucifer (DC Comics) from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Lucifer (DC Comics) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Lucifer Morningstar is a DC Comics character appearing Lucifer primarily as a supporting character in the comic book series The Sandman and as the title character of a spin-off, both published under the Vertigo imprint. Though various depictions of Lucifer – the Biblical fallen angel and Devil of the Abrahamic religions – have been presented by DC Comics in their run, this interpretation by Neil Gaiman debuted in The Sandman in 1989. Like many modern interpretations of Satan, DC's Lucifer owes much to the character's portrayal in John Milton's epic poem Paradise Lost, though Gaiman adapts the character to fit the fictional DC The title character from the cover of Lucifer Universe where their comics are #16, artist Christopher Moeller. set, where the character exists Publication information alongside superheroes and deities from multiple religions.

  • Death Row Inmate Guy Legrande Declared Mentally Incompetent to Be Executed
    DEATH ROW INMATE GUY LEGRANDE DECLARED MENTALLY INCOMPETENT TO BE EXECUTED ALBEMARLE, NC – As North Carolina and the nation are beginning to recognize the inhumanity and unconstitutionality of executing the mentally ill, a superior court judge in Stanly County today ruled that death row inmate Guy LeGrande is too mentally ill to face the ultimate punishment. Serving as his own lawyer, wearing a Superman t-shirt and communicating with Oprah through the television, Guy LeGrande was sentenced to death in 1996 in Stanly County for his role in the murder for hire plot masterminded by the victim’s husband. LeGrande, a Black man, was tried before an all-White jury by the District Attorney’s office that handed out gold noose lapel pins when the attorneys won a death verdict. The victim was white, as was her husband, the mastermind. “This order addresses only one of the injustices in this case,” said LeGrande’s attorney Jay Ferguson. “If the Legislature enacts the Racial Justice Act, the courts can examine serious issues, such as why prosecutors excluded every African-American citizen from Mr. LeGrande’s jury, and why they chose to prosecute the less culpable, mentally ill Black man for death, while giving a life saving deal to the White mastermind.” LeGrande rambled incoherently during his trial, cursed the jury and called them “Antichrists.” In his testimony to the jury, he told them that “[h]ell ain’t deep enough for you people. But you remember when you arrive, say my name, Guy Tobias LeGrande. For I shall be waiting. And each and every one of you will be mine for all eternity.

The Superhero's Mythic Journey: Death and the Heroic Cycle in Superman Abstract Superman, the original superhero, is a culmination of the great mythic heroes of the past. The hero's journey, a recurring cycle of events in mythology, is described by Joseph Campbell. The three acts in Superman: The Movie portray a complex calling to the superhero's role, consisting of three distinct calls and journeys. Each of the three stages includes the death of someone close to him, different symbols of his own death and resurrection, and different experiences of atonement with a father figure. Analyzing these mythic cycles bestows the viewer with a heroic "elixir.” This article is available in Journal of Religion & Film: https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/jrf/vol10/iss2/6 Stucky: The Superhero's Mythic Journey Introduction Since 1938, Superman has been popular culture's paradigmatic hero, and the original superhero has lived in many forms of media, from comic books to television series to film versions that include the 2006 Superman Returns.1 His story is a culmination of the great mythic heroes of the past.

  • The Metafiction of Neil Gaiman's the Sandman
    UNIVERSITY OF AMSTERDAM FACULTY OF HUMANITIES Master Thesis: The Metafiction of Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman Author: Ivana Babić Submission date: June 30, 2016 Discipline of study: MA English Literature and Culture Supervisor: Dr. Joyce Goggin Statement of Originality This document is written by Ivana Babić who declares to take full responsibility for the contents of this document. ‘I declare that the text and the work presented in this document is original and that no sources, other than those mentioned in the text and its references, have been used in creating it.’ The Faculty of the Humanities is responsible solely for the supervision of completion of the work, not for the contents. 1 Contents Abstract 3 Introduction 4 Chapter One: The Socio-Historical Context 12 Chapter Two: The Myth 18 Chapter Three: The Archetypes 44 Conclusion 54 Bibliography 55 2 Abstract This thesis’ main focus is the fantastic narrative of The Sandman, a comic book series which explores the storytelling as such. As will be shown further on, in the introduction, fantasy is a frequent genre in comics and it is what enables a multiplicity of themes and forms to enter the medium. The conception that stories, which are shaped by the human experience, in turn shape us and tell us something new about ourselves, lies at the heart of The Sandman. Gaiman uses this idea to formulate the principles of the modern world within the comics. Furthermore, this thesis will try and see how the techniques used by Gaiman relate to the comics legacy. Over a course of time comics has developed a self-reflexive approach to storytelling through intertextuality, specifically parody, which has foregrounded the metafictional aspect of their narratives.
