  • Propaganda, Cinema and the American Character in World War Ii Theodore Kornweibel, Jr
    humphrey bogart's Sahara propaganda, cinema and the american character in world war ii theodore kornweibel, jr. How and why a people responds affirmatively to momentous events in the life of its nation is an intriguing question for the social historian. Part of the answer may be found in the degree to which a populace can connect such events to traditional (and often idealistic) themes in its culture, themes which have had wide currency and restatement. This kind of identification can be seen particularly in wartime; twice in this century large segments of the American population rallied around the call to preserve democracy under the guise of fighting a "war to end all wars" and another to preserve the "four freedoms." But popular perceptions of these global conflicts were not without both deliberate and unconscious manipulation in many areas of the culture, including commercial motion pictures. Hollywood produced hundreds of feature films during World War II which depicted facets of that conflict on the domestic homefront, the soil of friendly Allies and far-flung battlefields. Many of the films showed no more than a crude addition of the war theme to plots that would have been filmed anyway in peacetime, such as gangster stories and musical comedies. But other movies reached a deeper level in subtly linking the war to American traditions and ideals. Sahara,1 Columbia Pictures' biggest money-maker in 1943, starring Humphrey Bogart in a finely understated performance, is such a motion picture. Students of American culture will find Sahara and its never-filmed predecessor script, "Trans-Sahara," artifacts especially useful in ex­ amining two phenomena: the process of government pressure on 0026-3079/81/2201-0005S01.50/0 5 movie studios to ensure that the "approved" war.

    “My” Hero or Epic Fail? Torchwood as Transnational Telefantasy Melissa Beattie1 Recibido: 2016-09-19 Aprobado por pares: 2017-02-17 Enviado a pares: 2016-09-19 Aceptado: 2017-03-23 DOI: 10.5294/pacla.2017.20.3.7 Para citar este artículo / to reference this article / para citar este artigo Beattie, M. (2017). “My” hero or epic fail? Torchwood as transnational telefantasy. Palabra Clave, 20(3), 722-762. DOI: 10.5294/pacla.2017.20.3.7 Abstract Telefantasy series Torchwood (2006–2011, multiple production partners) was industrially and paratextually positioned as being Welsh, despite its frequent status as an international co-production. When, for series 4 (sub- titled Miracle Day, much as the miniseries produced as series 3 was subti- tled Children of Earth), the production (and diegesis) moved primarily to the United States as a co-production between BBC Worldwide and Amer- ican premium cable broadcaster Starz, fan response was negative from the announcement, with the series being termed Americanised in popular and academic discourse. This study, drawn from my doctoral research, which interrogates all of these assumptions via textual, industrial/contextual and audience analysis focusing upon ideological, aesthetic and interpretations of national identity representation, focuses upon the interactions between fan cultural capital and national cultural capital and how those interactions impact others of the myriad of reasons why the (re)glocalisation failed. It finds that, in part due to the competing public service and commercial ide- ologies of the BBC, Torchwood was a glocalised text from the beginning, de- spite its positioning as Welsh, which then became glocalised again in series 4.

  • Archons (Commanders) [NOTICE: They Are NOT Anlien Parasites], and Then, in a Mirror Image of the Great Emanations of the Pleroma, Hundreds of Lesser Angels
    A R C H O N S HIDDEN RULERS THROUGH THE AGES A R C H O N S HIDDEN RULERS THROUGH THE AGES WATCH THIS IMPORTANT VIDEO UFOs, Aliens, and the Question of Contact MUST-SEE THE OCCULT REASON FOR PSYCHOPATHY Organic Portals: Aliens and Psychopaths KNOWLEDGE THROUGH GNOSIS Boris Mouravieff - GNOSIS IN THE BEGINNING ...1 The Gnostic core belief was a strong dualism: that the world of matter was deadening and inferior to a remote nonphysical home, to which an interior divine spark in most humans aspired to return after death. This led them to an absorption with the Jewish creation myths in Genesis, which they obsessively reinterpreted to formulate allegorical explanations of how humans ended up trapped in the world of matter. The basic Gnostic story, which varied in details from teacher to teacher, was this: In the beginning there was an unknowable, immaterial, and invisible God, sometimes called the Father of All and sometimes by other names. “He” was neither male nor female, and was composed of an implicitly finite amount of a living nonphysical substance. Surrounding this God was a great empty region called the Pleroma (the fullness). Beyond the Pleroma lay empty space. The God acted to fill the Pleroma through a series of emanations, a squeezing off of small portions of his/its nonphysical energetic divine material. In most accounts there are thirty emanations in fifteen complementary pairs, each getting slightly less of the divine material and therefore being slightly weaker. The emanations are called Aeons (eternities) and are mostly named personifications in Greek of abstract ideas.

Once it was a mining facility. Then later its corridors rang with screams generated by grotesque military experiments. However when the Doctor and Mel arrive on a hostile alien world after detecting a Terror of the Sontarans signal, the base they find themselves in is almost deserted. But not for long. Soon the Doctor's old enemies, the Sontarans, have landed, and are searching for the remnants of their previous research team. Before long they uncover evidence of strange occurrences on the planet. Of madness and death. They are warriors bred for war, strong of spirit and unafraid of death. To fear the Terror of the Sontarans is an act of betrayal. Nothing holds terror for the Sontarans. DS : Alright thanks. I am standing up with the laptop on Terror of the Sontarans kitchen worktop, as oddly there's very good wifi reception here.
