Official Guide 21 June to 9 September !"#$"#%&'(&%)*+,-./0 Official guide 21 June to 9 September Welcome to the London 2012 Festival! When the UK won the bid for the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, we promised that this ‘once in a lifetime’ event would include a great cultural programme that could involve people nationwide. When we are asked why, we go back to the example of Ancient Greece, where the Olympic Games included artists as well as athletes. As recently as the London 1948 Games, artists were awarded medals along with the athletes. This Festival has invited artists from all over the world to create amazing events from Shetland to Cornwall, from Enniskillen to Edinburgh, from Hackney to Hadrian’s Wall – with more than 10 million FREE opportunities to take part. The Festival would not be possible without our cultural and community partners throughout the UK. But most of all, it simply would not have happened without our great funding partners and sponsors. We offer our huge thanks to them for what we hope will be a fantastic Festival for the Olympic and Paralympic Games. % 1#+-$*%,2*%34-$* 5 Have a fabulous Festival 6 The Director’s cut Director Ruth Mackenzie gives a taste of the Seb Coe Tony Hall Festival programme Chair, London 2012 Chair, Cultural Organising Committee Olympiad Board 8 Where will you be on 21 June?

  • A Film by Jeremy Gilley (2008)
    UNRIC Brussels would like to welcome you to a Special Edition of CINE ONU celebrating UN Day A film by Jeremy Gilley (2008) Synopsis Jeremy Gilley was an actor before he founded Peace One Day in 1999. He had become disillusioned with his work, but understood the potential of film to positively affect people and create change in the world. So when he set out on his near impossible mission in 1999, he took a camera with him. Every journey made, every country visited and every person met – he got it all on camera. Ten years on, The Day After Peace is his story – the story of Peace One Day. © PeaceOneDay The Day After Peace charts the remarkable 10- year journey of award-winning filmmaker Jeremy Gilley to establish an annual Peace Day on 21 September. The camera follows Jeremy as he galvanises the countries of the world to recognise an official day of ceasefire and non-violence. But even after the member states of the UN unanimously adopt Peace Day, the struggle isn’t over. As the years pass, there’s not a single ceasefire. The voices of the cynics are growing louder, but Jeremy can’t let it fail. The film’s breathtaking conclusion finds Gilley joined by Jude Law in Afghanistan attempting to spearhead a massive vaccination against polio on Peace Day. Will peace prevail? Will lives be saved? Or were the cynics right? The Day After Peace is a moving testament to the power of the individual and the perseverance of the human spirit. "We must make every effort for the promotion of peace and inner values.

With its strong majority, the Government has the power to enact the policies supportive of the sector in the Conservatives 2019 Manifesto. All in all, this indicates a positive outlook for life sciences during this Government’s tenure.

  • THE MYTH of 'TERRIBLE TURK' and 'LUSTFUL TURK' Nevs
    THE WESTERN IMAGE OF TURKS FROM THE MIDDLE AGES TO THE 21ST CENTURY: THE MYTH OF ‘TERRIBLE TURK’ AND ‘LUSTFUL TURK’ Nevsal Olcen Tiryakioglu A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of Nottingham Trent University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy December 2015 Copyright Statement This work is the intellectual property of the author. You may copy up to 5% of this work for private study, or personal, non-commercial research. Any re-use of the information contained within this document should be fully referenced, quoting the author, title, university, degree level and pagination. Queries or requests for any other use, or if a more substantial copy is required, should be directed in the owner(s) of the Intellectual Property Rights. i Abstract The Western image of Turks is identified with two distinctive stereotypes: ‘Terrible Turk’ and ‘Lustful Turk.’ These stereotypical images are deeply rooted in the history of the Ottoman Empire and its encounters with Christian Europe. Because of their fear of being dominated by Islam, European Christians defined the Turks as the wicked ‘Other’ against their perfect ‘Self.’ Since the beginning of Crusades, the Western image of Turks is associated with cruelty, barbarity, murderousness, immorality, and sexual perversion. These characteristics still appear in cinematic representations of Turks. In Western films such as Lawrence of Arabia and Midnight Express, the portrayals of Turks echo the stereotypes of ‘terrible Turk’ and ‘lustful Turk.’ This thesis argues that these stereotypes have transformed into a myth and continued to exist uniformly in Western contemporary cinema. The thesis attempts to ascertain the uniformity and consistency of the cinematic image of Turks and determine the associations between this image and the myths of ‘terrible Turk’ and ‘lustful Turk.’ To achieve this goal, this thesis examines the trajectory of the Turkish image in Western discourse between the 11th and 21st centuries.

  • A Level Dance Transitions Materials
    Sir Henry Floyd Grammar School Year 12 A Level Dance Transition Work To prepare yourself for the A Level Dance course we suggest that you complete some of the following tasks prior to the start of your course. You are not required to complete all tasks. If you don’t understand something, don’t worry, we will revise all of this material briefly at the start of the course. If you have not studied GCSE Dance you should refer to the GCSE Dance revision guide to ensure you are secure in key terminology. Component 1: Solo Practitioner Performance Task Research a few of the following practitioners and find out the key features of their work: Prescribed set works: - Christopher Bruce - Martha Graham - Gene Kelly - Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui Named practitioners: - Glen Tetley - Robert North - Richard Alston - Siobhan Davies - Ashley Page - Filippo Taglioni - August Bournonville - Arthur Saint-Leon - Agnes de Mille - Jack Cole - Jerome Robbins - Bob Fosse - Loie Fuller - Isadora Duncan - Ruth St. Denis - Doris Humphrey - Shobana Jeyasingh - Matthew Bourne - Jasmin Vardimon - Akram Khan - Hofesh Shechter Consider whether any of these practitioners would suit your own strengths and weaknesses in terms of performance. Component 1: Choreography Task Watch examples of dance works from some of the following companies and choreographers to broaden your knowledge of different styles of dance: ● Matthew Bourne’s New Adventures ● Ballet Boyz ● Rambert Dance Company ● Boy Blue Entertainment ● Akram Khan Dance Company ● Shobana Jeyasingh Dance ● Motionhouse Dance Company ● StopGap Dance Company ● DV8 Physical Theatre ● Phoenix Dance Theatre ● James Cousins Company ● The Royal Ballet (Wayne McGregor) ● Jasmin Vardimon ● Hofesh Schecter Note how they manipulate dancers and movement material and recognise key choreographic devices that the choreographers have used.

  • Shakespeare on Film, Video & Stage
    William Shakespeare on Film, Video and Stage Titles in bold red font with an asterisk (*) represent the crème de la crème – first choice titles in each category. These are the titles you’ll probably want to explore first. Titles in bold black font are the second- tier – outstanding films that are the next level of artistry and craftsmanship. Once you have experienced the top tier, these are where you should go next. They may not represent the highest achievement in each genre, but they are definitely a cut above the rest. Finally, the titles which are in a regular black font constitute the rest of the films within the genre. I would be the first to admit that some of these may actually be worthy of being “ranked” more highly, but it is a ridiculously subjective matter.
