  • This Was a Time of Both Turmoil and Prosperity for America
    Lillie, Disney, 1 Cleansing the Past, Selling the Future: Disney’s Corporate Exhibits at the 1964-65 New York World’s Fair Jonathan J. M. Lillie JOMC 242 History Paper 5/3/02 Park Doctoral Fellow The School of Journalism and Mass Communication The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Lillie, Disney, 2 Abstract This paper offers a historical analysis of Disney’s corporate exhibits at the 1964-65 New York World’s Fair, GE’s “Carousel of Progress” and Ford’s “Magic Skyway,” in an attempt to consider their historical and cultural significance. The coming together of Disney’s legacy of nostalgic entertainment achieved via his desire and skill in “improving” the past and future with the equally strong desire of corporate giants to sell themselves and their products is presented here as a case study of the processes of cultural creation: how and why specific discourses of technology and consumption are written in to these narratives of the past and the future. Introduction Between April 22, 1964 and October 17, 1965 fifty-one million people experienced the New York World’s Fair.1 The mid-1960s was a time of both turmoil and prosperity for America. President Kennedy had been assassinated only months before the Fair’s opening. In southern states such as Alabama the civil rights protest movement was drawing national attention. While cold war tensions remained high following the Cuban Missile Crisis, the nation was enjoying the height of postwar economic prosperity and geo-political power. The Fair’s twin themes of “Man’s Achievements in an Expanding Universe” and “A Millennium of Progress” captured the exuberance of the times, celebrating “the boundless potential of science and technology for human betterment.”2 The 1939 New York World’s Fair was in many ways a predecessor to the 1964-65 exhibition.

  • Lesson 7 Slides
    IVP CLASSICS Escape from Reason Frances A. Schaeffer Clabon Bogan Jr 609.230.5809 [email protected] IVP CLASSICS Escape from Reason Frances A. Schaeffer Clabon Bogan Jr 609.230.5809 [email protected] ESCAPE FROM REASON Escape from Reason was first published in 1968, and thus in that setting we are able to understand the nature of Schaeffer’s writings. The foundational premise which motivated him was his sense that truth, which was once based on reason, had morphed into a truth which was based on feelings. • He felt that feelings had become the truest source of reality He felt that there was an obsession with the emotive and the experiential, without a relief from societies still facing anxiety, despair, and purposelessness. Escape from Reason was written to discover how we got to this place and what is the remedy for this mindset shift. In the book, Francis A. Schaeffer traces trends in key thinking from the “Age of Reason” to the 20th century have shaped our society. ESCAPE FROM REASON So far in our review of the book, we have seen that he was wide-ranging in his analysis, examining philosophy, science, art and popular culture to identify dualism, fragmentation and the decline of reason. • He anticipated a rekindling of Christianity's promise of a scriptural purpose and hope “We still have not exhausted this subject of the leap. There are other areas where it shows itself. A recent book by Michel Foucault called Madness and Civilization1 is important here. In a review of the book in The New York Review of Books (November 3, 1966), entitled “In Praise of Folly,” the reviewer Stephen Marcus of Columbia University comments, “What Foucault is finally against, however, is the authority of reason.

  • The Interplay of Madness and Narrative in Don Quijote
    Wesleyan University The Honors College Suddenly, Opportunity for Adventure: The Interplay of Madness and Narrative in Don Quijote by Jacqueline Mica Stavis Class of 2009 An essay submitted to the faculty of Wesleyan University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Arts with Departmental Honors from the College of Letters Middletown, Connecticut April, 2009 1 In his Lectures on Don Quixote, Vladimir Nabokov characterizes Cervantes’ writing as “alternate phases of lucidity and vagueness, deliberately planning and sloppy vagueness, much as his hero was mad in patches.” 1 Both the thematic and formal aspects of the novel vacillate between the clarity and ambiguity referenced by Nabokov, who with this one phrase encapsulates two themes that inundate Volume One of Don Quijote: madness and narrative. Madness in Don Quijote manifests in various forms, the most notable of which appear in the characters of Cardenio, Sancho Panza, and of course, Don Quixote.2 The madness of Don Quixote drives the narration of the novel forward not by itself, but through its interactions with the other instances of madness in the novel. It is these three forms of madness—Cardenio’s, Sancho’s, and Quixote’s—that produce narrative. The madnesses of the aforementioned characters share a common denominator: each stems from the character’s desire to change his social situation. Society, in this case, refers to the community of the villages they each initially inhabit. These yearnings range from wanting complete removal from society, to aspirations of an improved social status, and finally to the wish to inhabit an alternate society—one that no longer exists.

Like the Greek xenos, which figures here as well, the term covers both "stranger" and "foreigner" in English. Because it was more appropriate in most of the con­ texts, I have used "foreigner" where possible, occa­ sionally substituting "stranger" where necessary or conventional. It seemed necessary when the adjec­ tive etrange ("strange") was close by, to mark the parallel; and it seemed best to follow convention in mostly translating xenos in Greek tragedy as "stranger.

  • Creating a Context for Innovation
    Creating a context for innovation Mihai Toader-Pasti It’s almost 6pm in Dubai and while an amazing sunset is just happening, I am struggling to finish my Eisenhower Fellowships Youth Leader project report, while competing in the world’s most important competition for solar houses and trying to finish something to make household energy production in Romania a reality for as many people as possible. “One year has passed since the Malaga conference in Spain with Eisenhower Fellowships, I just turned 27 a few days ago and my life has never been more interesting.” For the past few months I have tried to make a video compilation of my last year. I find forgetting very frustrating and this is really a year I wouldn’t want to forget for so many different reasons, for all the failures and things I did well. Ironically, I have been too busy to finish the video detailing how busy I am. But I will finish it soon! I am Mihai, 27, born in a small town in Romania, and now living in Bucharest. I believe in social change through smart design—incorporating architecture, engineering and sustainability. I love to create not just products, but experiences and communities to make people’s lives healthier, happier and more productive. In the last 8 years, I have participated in 3 editions of this competition, designing and building 3 multi- awarded houses and I have also changed a law. 1 It all started in 2010, by luck When I was 18, due to my sister’s recommendation, I joined the first group of what came to become the PRISPA team.

  • Social Madness
    7 SOCIAL MADNESS Ronald Aronson I In The Dialectics ofDisaster: A Preface to Hope I have analyzed the "Final Solution to the Jewish Problem" as an act of societal madness.1 We ordinarily use this term "madness" quite freely in conversation, but then abandon it upon moving into serious discourse and study-perhaps in trying to be more precise, objective, or scientific, perhaps to avoid a contentious descriptive term. I would argue, however, that sophisticated thought has ignored an important spontaneous insight. Used carefully and self-consciously, the term "madness" illuminates much of the cen- tury's genocidal history, including above all the Nazi project to exter- minate Europe's Jews. Mad: untutored and casual reflection contains an insight to be pre- served and deepened, not suppressed, by systematic and scientific study. Nazi policies toward the Jews were mad, as were Stalin's attacks upon Russian society, as was the American near-destruction of Vietnam. And in the dynamic structures of these and other quite different madnesses we can find guides for understanding and perhaps combatting the nuclear madness menacing all of us. Yet to describe social policies as mad immediately exposes one to a raft of doubts: about indulging in rhetorical excess, about being impre- cise, about confusing the social with the individual, injecting normative conceptions that have no place in social analysis. For example, even if we grant that individuals may be described as mad-and this language is contestable as being value-charged, unscientific, and obsolescent-how can psychological terms appropriate to individual mental functioning be 126 Ronald Aronson applied to collective behavior? After all, don't societies function accord- ing to different processes than do individuals? This and similar objections are reinforced by the functionalist premise that generally guides studies of social life.

  • Rock Album Discography Last Up-Date: September 27Th, 2021
    Rock Album Discography Last up-date: September 27th, 2021 Rock Album Discography “Music was my first love, and it will be my last” was the first line of the virteous song “Music” on the album “Rebel”, which was produced by Alan Parson, sung by John Miles, and released I n 1976. From my point of view, there is no other citation, which more properly expresses the emotional impact of music to human beings. People come and go, but music remains forever, since acoustic waves are not bound to matter like monuments, paintings, or sculptures. In contrast, music as sound in general is transmitted by matter vibrations and can be reproduced independent of space and time. In this way, music is able to connect humans from the earliest high cultures to people of our present societies all over the world. Music is indeed a universal language and likely not restricted to our planetary society. The importance of music to the human society is also underlined by the Voyager mission: Both Voyager spacecrafts, which were launched at August 20th and September 05th, 1977, are bound for the stars, now, after their visits to the outer planets of our solar system (mission status: https://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/status/). They carry a gold- plated copper phonograph record, which comprises 90 minutes of music selected from all cultures next to sounds, spoken messages, and images from our planet Earth. There is rather little hope that any extraterrestrial form of life will ever come along the Voyager spacecrafts. But if this is yet going to happen they are likely able to understand the sound of music from these records at least.
