Tempest Crusade TEMPEST CRUSADE: ULGU th st Sat 20 – Sun 21 January 2018 ARMY LISTS INTRO In the following pages you’ll see all 36 army lists due to play at Tempest this year. You’ll also see some added commentary from the Great and the Good (Bad) of Scottish Warhammer. Treat it firmly with the tongue in cheek, and all in the name of banter…… John – One of our DWARF overlords, Coach at Scotland’s successful AoS 6 Nations 2017 campaign, and TO for the 2018 one! He loves Trains, and Bretonnians (don’t mention the War…), and renting Rich’s armies. Just don’t let him pick any music. Ever. Calum – Scotland’s resident expert in Spoonery. What Calum doesn’t know about the lower reaches of tournament tables isn’t worth knowing. Partial to Tzeentch/Death at the moment. Mike – Mike’s a grumpy Dwarf player (stunties, not the Fifers) who still yearns for the ageless halls of Karaz-a-Karak. He also does nae bad with his Khorne at AoS (and soon the Stormcrutch!!) Expect puns galore from him in the coming pages………..if anyone can Mike Calla-ghan! Dave – Chief Accountant for Tempest. He has cast his beady eye over all the lists, and adds an English meta slant to the reviews at the end. Formerly of this parish, but now embedded down South. He owns, and paints, LOTs of armies. Now bathe in the goodness of the Listssss….

Nathan knows what he's doing with it too, so should do very well. Mike: Nathan is a famously awful person and this is proof. He’s experience as an awful human should see him please Tzeentch. John: Nathan is the reigning young upstart of AoS here in the grim cold north, having smashed up all comers at Northern Invasion. Clearly know what he’s doing with this list and is nice guy as well.

  • 'Triptych', from Seamus Heaney's Field Work
    An In-Depth Study of ‘Triptych’, from Seamus Heaney’s Field Work An In-Depth Study of ‘Triptych’, from Seamus Heaney’s Field Work Martin Connolly This paper focuses critical attention on ‘Triptych’, the sequence of three poems in Seamus Heaney’s 1979 collection Field Work. The sequence directly follows the opening poem ‘Oysters’, and by virtue of position alone commands attention. It is the first of a number of poems in the collection to address the conflict in Northern Ireland, and can be seen as a kind of public poetry, very different in tone, theme and style from early Heaney. This exploration derives from attempts to provide satisfactory answers to questions concerning elements within the sequence which resist smooth interpretation. My method of approach is largely chronological, in the sense that I go through the poems starting at the beginning and plough through to the end, stanza by stanza, sometimes line by line, attempting to guide the reader toward an understanding of the poem derived from apparent textual evidence. Early on, however, I do state what I think the poetic sequence is designed to be, and this argument informs my interpretation throughout. Yet, at every point, I provide what I consider a coherent rationale and logic for my critical opinions. I would certainly welcome debate on each and every point. The conclusions I have come to in regard to this poetic sequence, are, at times, negative, but not exclusively so. I have looked at this poetic sequence up close and － 129 － found it to be problematic in a number of areas.

  • Virgil and the Tempest
    VIRGIL AND THE TEMPEST The Politics of Imitation Donna B. Hamilton Virgil and The Tempest offers a new assess­ ment of the art and politics of Shakespeare's comic masterpiece by examining its relation­ ship to both the contemporary political con­ text and to Virgil's Aeneid. Challenging the view that The Tempest supports the absolutist theories and policies of King James I, Donna Hamilton instead shows how the play pre­ sents an argument for a limited monarchy. Virgil and James I each represent a set of symbols and idioms that Shakespeare appro­ priates for his own use in The Tempest. In the process, he pays homage to their respective eminence and brings them into dialogic rela­ tion with each other, changing the language to suit his purposes. This means rewriting the Aeneid to suit a new time and situation, and it means subtly altering the king's language to present a strong argument for constitu­ tionalism. Scholars who have emphasized the "trans­ cendent" Shakespeare have sometimes failed to recognize the playwright's passion for resistance, a passion nowhere more cunningly present than in The Tempest. Sixteenth- and seventeenth-century plays were character­ ized by an indirection that only a practiced rhetorical skill could produce, a skill that pur­ chased not only safety, but respect, author­ ity, and power. This skill was equally useful to writers engaged in oppositional politics and to apologists for the established authority. Shakespeare's work, therefore, cannot be fully appreciated by today's readers without being sufficiently historicized. Virgil and The Tempest Virgil and The Tempest THE POLITICS OF IMITATION Donna B.

  • Genesis of a Discourse: the Tempest and the Emergence of Postcoloniality
    Genesis of a Discourse: The Tempest and the Emergence of Postcoloniality By Judith Anne Pocock A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor Philosophy, Graduate Department of English, University of Toronto © Copyright by Judith Pocock 2010 Genesis of a Discourse: The Tempest and the Emergence of Postcoloniality Judith Anne Pocock Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of English University of Toronto 2010 Abstract This dissertation contends that The Tempest by William Shakespeare plays a seminal role in the development of postcolonial literature and criticism because it was created in a moment when the colonial system that was now falling apart was just beginning to come into being. Creative writers and critics from the Third World, particularly Africa, the Caribbean, and Latin America, and the First found that the moment reflected in The Tempest had something very specific to say to a generation coming of age in the postcolonial world of the 1960s, 1970s, and early 1980s. I establish that a significant discourse that begins in the Nineteenth Century and intensifies in the Twentieth depends on The Tempest to explore the nature of colonialism and to develop an understanding of the postcolonial world. I then examine the role theories of adaptation play in understanding why The Tempest assumes such a crucial role and determine that the most useful model of adaptation resembles the method developed by biblical typologists which “sets two successive historical events [or periods] into a reciprocal relation of anticipation and fulfillment” (Brumm 27). I ague that postcolonial writers and critics found in The Tempest evidence of a history of colonial oppression and resistance often obscured by established historical narratives and a venue to explore their relationship to their past, present, and future.

  • Unearthing the Tempest
    Unearthing The Tempest The Tempest tells the story of Prospero, the deposed Duke of Milan, and his daughter, Miranda, who have spent the last twelve years in exile on a mysterious island. Upon first washing ashore with his infant child, Prospero captures two of the island’s occupants; with their help, Prospero spends the next twelve years plotting his revenge. The play opens on its namesake: a great storm of Prospero’s devising. Through the magic he has appropriated from Ariel, a mystical spirit, and the natural resources he has acquired from Caliban, the island’s only known native inhabitant, Prospero washes those who wronged him to his shores, seeking to bring them to justice and reestablish Milan’s natural order of succession. What follows is a story of revenge, redemption, and renewal as Prospero learns the meaning of mercy and forgiveness. Born in Stratford-upon-Avon, England in 1564, William Shakespeare is the author of some of the most well known plays in the western canon of dramatic literature. As he moved into the last stage of his career and life, Shakespeare was increasingly drawn to stories of restoration and rebirth, with a strong emphasis on father-daughter relationships. Other plays that share these themes have become known as “the romances,” which also include The Winter’s Tale, Cymbeline, and Pericles: Prince of Tyre.
