Introduction
INTRODUCTION The wuxia film is the oldest genre in the Chinese cinema that has remained popular to the present day. Yet despite its longevity, its history has barely been told until fairly recently, as if there was some force denying that it ever existed. Indeed, the genre was as good as non-existent in China, its country of birth, for some fifty years, being proscribed over that time, while in Hong Kong, where it flowered, it was gen- erally derided by critics and largely neglected by film historians. In recent years, it has garnered a following not only among fans but serious scholars. David Bordwell, Zhang Zhen, David Desser and Leon Hunt have treated the wuxia film with the crit- ical respect that it deserves, addressing it in the contexts of larger studies of Hong Kong cinema (Bordwell), the Chinese cinema (Zhang), or the generic martial arts action film and the genre known as kung fu (Desser and Hunt).1 In China, Chen Mo and Jia Leilei have published specific histories, their books sharing the same title, ‘A History of the Chinese Wuxia Film’ , both issued in 2005.2 This book also offers a specific history of the wuxia film, the first in the English language to do so. It covers the evolution and expansion of the genre from its beginnings in the early Chinese cinema based in Shanghai to its transposition to the film industries in Hong Kong and Taiwan and its eventual shift back to the Mainland in its present phase of development. Subject and Terminology Before beginning this history, it is necessary first to settle the question ofterminology , in the process of which, the characteristics of the genre will also be outlined.

Abstract The Trickster is perhaps the most significant figure in al1 the North American Indian oral narratives. This theçis contends that the Trickster figure is alive and exists as the protagonist of many contemporary American Indian novels. The authors of three novels under study here--House Made of Dam by N. Scott Momaday, Winter In the Blood by James Welch, and Griever: An American Monkev Kins In China by Gerald Vizenor-- with varying degrees of consciousness employ elements of traditional oral stories, especiallythe Trickster protagonist of those stories, to create new Trickster narratives that address issues relevant to the contemporary world.

Domestic Blitz: a Revisionist History of the Fifties
Domestic Blitz: A Revisionist History of the Fifties Gaile McGregor The fir st version of this paper was written for a 1990 conference at the University of Kansas entitled "Ikë s America." It was an interesting event—though flawed somewhat by the organizers' decision to schedule sessions and design program flow according to academic category. Eminently sensible from an administrative standpoint, this arrangement worked counter to the articulated aim of stimulating interdisciplinary dialogue by encouraging participants to spend all their time hanging out with birds of their own feather—economists with economists, historians with historians, literati with literati. Like many of the would-be innovative conferences, symposia, andevenfull-scale academic programsmounted over the last decade, this one was multi- rather than truly inter-disciplinary. This didn' t mean that I wasn t able to find any critical grist for my mill. Substantive aspects aside, the two things I found most intriguing about what I heard during those few days were, first, the number and variety of people who had recently "rediscovered" the fifties, and second, the extent to which the pattern of their rediscovery paralleled my own. Arriving there convinced I had made a major breakthrough in elucidating the darker and more complex feelings that undercolored the broadly presumed conservatism of the decade, what I heard over and over again from presenter s was the same (gleeful or earnest) revisions, the same sense of surprise at how much had been overlooked. Two messages might be taken from this. The first is that the fifties is suddenly relevant again. The second and perhaps more sobering concerns the mind-boggling power of 0026-3079/93/3401 -005$ 1.50/0 5 American culture to foster an almost complete collective amnesia about events and attitudes of the not-very-distant past.

BLOOMSBURY Fall 2020 September – December BLOOMSBURY PUBLISHING SEPTEMBER 2020 The Apology Eve Ensler From the bestselling author of The Vagina Monologues—a powerful, life-changing examination of abuse and atonement. Like millions of women, Eve Ensler has been waiting much of her lifetime for an apology. Sexually and physically abused by her father, Eve has struggled her whole life from this betrayal, longing for an honest reckoning from a man who is long dead. After years of work as an anti-violence activist, she decided she would wait no longer; an apology could be imagined, by her, for her, to her. The Apology, written by Eve from her father’s point of view in the words she longed to hear, attempts to transform the abuse she suffered with unflinching truthfulness, compassion, and an expansive vision for the future. Through The Apology, Eve has set out to provide a new way for herself and a BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY possible road for others so that survivors of abuse may finally envision how to / LITERARY be free.

Report to the U. S. Congress for the Year Ending December 31, 2003
Report to the U.S.Congress for the Year Ending December 31,2003 Created by the U.S. Congress to Preserve America’s Film Heritage Created by the U.S. Congress to Preserve America’s Film Heritage April 30, 2004 Dr. James H. Billington The Librarian of Congress Washington, D.C. 20540-1000 Dear Dr. Billington: In accordance with Public Law 104-285 (Title II), The National Film Preservation Foundation Act of 1996, I submit to the U.S. Congress the 2003 Report of the National Film Preservation Foundation. It gives me great pleasure to review our accomplishments in carrying out this Congressional mandate. Since commencing service to the archival community in 1997, we have helped save 630 historically and culturally significant films from 98 institutions across 34 states and the District of Columbia. We have produced The Film Preservation Guide: The Basics for Archives, Libraries, and Museums, the first such publication designed specifically for regional preservationists, and have pioneered in pre- senting archival films on widely distributed DVDs and on American television. Unseen for decades, motion pictures preserved through our programs are now extensively used in study and exhibition. There is still much to do. This year Congress will consider the reauthorization of our federal grant programs. Increased funding will enable us to expand service to the nation’s archives, libraries, and museums and do more toward saving America’s film heritage for future generations. The film preser- vation community appreciates your efforts to make the case for increased federal investment. We are deeply grateful for your leadership. Space does not permit my acknowledging all those supporting our efforts in 2003, but I would like to single out several organizations that have played an especially significant role: the National Endowment for the Humanities, The Andrew W.

The Craftsman, the Trickster, and the Poet “Re-Souling” the Rational Mind
THE CRAFTSMAN, THE TRICKSTER, AND THE POET “RE-SOULING” THE RATIONAL MIND Edith K. Ackermann The human psyche seems to be the forgotten middle ground between brain and body, mind and matter, and cognition and emotion.1 And yet, without the imaginative, the creative, and the heartfelt, there is no intelligence, experience, or meanings to speak of. The highest forms of human achievements can’t be understood in terms of scienti!c conquests alone. No one says it better than Cassirer in An Essay on Man (1944), when he says that man is set above animals, not because he possesses higher sensibility, longer memory, or an abil- ity for quicker association, but because of his power to create and manipulate symbols—to endow things with meaning and with life. Clearly, the symbols that humans manipulate, or the “metaphors we live by” (Lako" and Johnson 1981), come in varying shades of gray. They can be thoughts, words, images, or actions, such as enactments and performances. They can be used, alone or together, to invoke, evoke, mediate, delegate, signify, signal, subvert, or give orders. They can be emit- ted and recieved knowingly—for example, when I wink at a friend and she smiles back at me—or unknowingly, without my noticing, tacitly, on my behalf. I suggest that art as a way of knowing is about “re-souling” the rational mind. This, in turn, occurs as a consequence of being mindfully engaged, playful in spirit, and disposed to use !ction—or the powers of myth—as windows into our inner and outer realities.
