The Ghosts of Christmas Eve (TV Movie ) - IMDb Every holiday season, families around the world trim their treessing carols, and hang their stockings in the hopes they'll find them filled with goodies by Christmas morning. However, for all the quaint—and sometimes corny—customs we follow today, there are just as Christmas Eve Ghost strange Christmas traditions that have been cast by the wayside, Christmas Eve Ghost out of favor and remembered less and less each year. Modern holiday recipes involving dried fruits or nuts are actually "not at all authentic, but just something that Alton Brown made up," he says. In this case, the word plum comes from its non-fruit-related usage, meaning "desirable," such as in the term "plum job. Fruitcake has gotten a bad rap as of late. But placing fruitcake under your pillow actually has some pretty sweet origins. And this isn't the only antiquated Christmas Eve Ghost tradition involving love. Christmas Christmas Eve Ghost in the 17th century would also do things Christmas Eve Ghost throw food at the wall to see if what stuck spelled the name of a lover. They'd also toss Christmas Eve Ghost into a tree—and if they hung there, the thrower would be married within the year. Today, English royalty continues to serve fruitcake at Christmastime gatherings as a nod to the tradition, says Earl. In 12th-century France, churches would perform a Christmas ceremony in which they led a donkey on Christmas Eve Ghost procession through the center of town to the local church, where a service was in session. The donkey would remain next to the church's altar for the duration of the service, and congregants would mimic its bray in a call-and-response with the Christmas Eve Ghost. This tradition, known as the Feast of the Donkey, was accompanied by "raucous parties that usually got out of hand," says Earl. The celebration became such a problem that many towns eventually banned it. Derived from the influence of Roman Saturnalia celebrations, social inversion was a popular Christmastime practice centuries ago, says Earl. This would typically involve the election of a " boy bishop ," or child, to run the church in lieu of a Christmas Eve Ghost during the Feast of Saint Nicholas on Dec. In the most extreme examples, you'd wind up "with some three-year-old running around leading the whole thing," Earl explains. Today, the Christmas season runs from Thanksgiving to Christmas Day. But that wasn't always the case. The months leading up to Christmas were considered Advent, which, similar to Lent, was considered a time of restraint for Christians. And the biggest celebrations were actually held on that final day, known as "Twelfth Night," which served as the inspiration for William Shakespeare's play of the same name. Many games and Christmas celebrations were once held on Twelfth Night. And one of those traditions, according to Earl, was that "you would bake a cake and hide something in it, like a string bean or a coin," Christmas Eve Ghost to the modern tradition of finding a bean or figurine in a king cake served on Mardi Gras in the South. Whoever found the item in their slice of cake on Twelfth Night would "lead the evening's festivities," Earl explains. Under the tradition of the Lord of Misrule, which was popular in medieval courts, a "jester or clown would become mayor of the city for the Christmas season, suggesting Christmas Eve Ghost sorts of funny things that everyone would have to do," says Earl. Depending upon the village's ruling structure, this was also sometimes known as "The Abbot of Unreason. This tradition was meant to provide entertainment throughout the entire Christmas season. Wearing costumes used to be a traditional part of the Christmas celebrationsays Earl. In one famous instance, a group of 13th-century nobles burned to death when the tar on their "forest savages" costumes caught on fire. King Charlesmeanwhile, narrowly escaped the incident, and Christmas Eve Ghost practice was henceforth banned within his court. In fact, in 19th-century Europe, it was an occasion for poor folks to request gifts from wealthy landowners. According to Earl, "they'd go from house to house and say, 'OK, we're going to sing you a song and you can either invite Christmas Eve Ghost in for food or a drink… but if you don't, you never know what's going to happen to your yard. In addition, you might be curious as to why "A Christmas Carol," one of the most famous Christmas stories of all time, is a ghost story. Well, the Victorians—who helped cement many of our modern American ideas of Christmas— loved scary stories. Yes, Christmas was once more spooky and scary rather than warm and fuzzy. And it wasn't just ghost stories that made Christmas the most eerie time of year. For example, "in some parts of Europe it was believed that supernatural activity was at a high on Christmas Evesort of the way it is on the Day of the Dead. InCoca-Cola and artist Haddon Sundblom decided to depict Santa as a "six-foot, full-grown human grandfather," says Earl. Due to their massive marketing budget, Coke's version of Santa Claus spread far and wide, and soon became the standard image of Santa throughout the United States and much of Europe. Before that, however, descriptions of Santa were "all over the map," Earl explains. This included variations of Santa as an elf and a gnome—in fact, much of the time, he wasn't depicted as fully human at all. Prior to the modern adoption of reindeer and elves in Saint Nick's mythologySanta's helpers were a little more sinister. Instead, he would have "these Christmas Eve Ghost characters that walk around with him and dole out punishment," says Earl. This includes the menacing Krampus, a Christmas Eve Ghost goat-demon who punishes naughty children, and whose presence on Christmas is still recognized in Austria, Hungary, Slovenia, and Slovakia. This superstitious Christmas tradition has fallen out of favor in recent years, but "first footing" was the belief that "the first person to cross the threshold [of a home] on Christmas Eve is considered good luck, especially if it was a dark-haired gentleman," says Earl. It was typically observed in England and Scotland. And for many centuries, you'd be hard-pressed to find people celebrating around a tree outside of Germany. All Rights Reserved.

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.

The Army Research Office had issued broad agency solicitations for such a center in October 2001, and they enthusiastically selected MIT’s proposal from among several candidates, awarding them $50 million to kick start what became dubbed the MIT Institute for Soldier Nanotechnologies (ISN). MIT’s proposal out- lined areas of nanoscience, polymer chemistry, and molecular engineering that could provide fruitful military applications in the near term, as well as more speculative applications in the future. It also featured the striking image of a mechanically armored woman warrior, standing amidst the mon- uments of some futuristic cityscape, packing two enormous guns and other assault devices (Figure 1). This image proved appealing enough beyond the proposal to grace the ISN’s earliest websites, and it also accompanied several publicity announcements for the institute’s inauguration.

I would also like to express my deep gratitude to my colleagues at Arendal Upper Secondary School, Steinar Tvedt, Inger Johanne Hermansen, Ane Kristine Bruland and Ida Wullum for their patient guidance and useful critique of my writing in English. Finally, I wish to thank my father, a proud working-class man, for his support and encouragement throughout my whole life. Throughout his life, he was never able to read English. Therefore, he “forced” me to translate my work for him. The Nazi-form of evil with Himmler, Mengele and Eichmann concerned him. Often, he asked me, how could a man (Eichmann) be that blinded? Without my father giving me motivation, I would never have come this far in my studies. 1 CONTENTS ABSTRACT …..5 CHAPTER 1, INTRODUCTION 1.1) General introduction of evil in movies …..6-7 1.2) My Research Question ……7 1.3) A short overview on the typologies of evil …..7-9 1.4) Defining evil …..9-10 1.5) A critique and defense of evil ….10-12 1.6) What is The X-files about? ….12-14 1.7) Why explore The X-Files? …..14-15 CHAPTER 2, METHODS 2.1) Theory and applied ethics …..16-18 2.2) Specific evil episodes as subjects for research and constructing analysis chapters ..18-19 2.3) The importance of using scientific work related to movies and evil …..19-21 2.4) Methodological inspiration for my thesis, work done by Dean A.

  • Conspiracy in Contemporary Russian and American Culture Course
    Course Title: Paranoid Fictions: Conspiracy in Contemporary Russian and American Culture Course No.: REE386 Unique No: Instructor: Keith Livers Meeting Time & Place: TH: 2:00 – 5:00, CMA 3.108 Office Hours: M: 2:00 – 5:00 There is no denying that conspiracy thinking has become an important part of the cultural and political landscape in the past decades. The spectrum of paranoia in contemporary (American) culture extends from fiction to film and television, and most recently into the realm of political rhetoric. Meanwhile, Russia has been characterized as one of the world leaders in the production of paranoia. This course examines a wide spectrum of conspiracist expression, from such historical texts as The Protocols of the Elders of Zion to the fictions of Don DeLillo, Thomas Pynchon, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Viktor Pelevin and others. Since popular culture represents a major platform for the development of the conspiratorial imagination, we will also be looking at a number of pop culture artifacts that thematize conspiracy and paranoia, such as Chris Carter’s The X-Files, Oliver Stone’s JFK, and others. Secondary works by a number of contemporary scholars working in the field of conspiracy studies will provide the theoretical framework for our discussions. Required TEXTS: DeLillo, Don. White Noise Dick, Philip K. Ubik Dostoevsky, Fyodor. Demons Pelevin, Viktor. Homo Zapiens Pelevin, Viktor. Empire V: The Prince of Hamlet Pynchon, Thomas. The Crying of Lot 49.

    Universidad de Medellín Conspiración y nuda vida ¿The X-Files, I want to believe: mundo posible o mundo presente?* Luis Nitrihual Valdebenito** Juan Manuel Fierro Bustos*** Carlos Reyes Velásquez**** Francisco Henríquez Morales***** Recibido: 2017-04-22 Enviado a pares: 2017-05-25 Aprobado por pares: 2017-07-18 Aceptado: 2017-07-25 DOI: 10.22395/angr.v16n31a3 Resumen El presente artículo problematiza, en general, la conspiración como una estructura política y narrativa fundamental de la Modernidad. A través de un análisis fílmico de la serie The X-Files, I want to believe, planteamos como objetivo revelar como el tópico de la conspiración, en un nivel superficial, es un articulador de la trama de la serie, pero en un nivel profundo y amplio entendemos la conspiración como una estrategia articuladora de la vida moderna y, en este marco, del control biopolítico. Así entonces, el artículo muestra cómo la estructura argumentativa de la serie propone tramas y personajes a través de los cuales el poder gubernamental interviene los cuerpos y el espacio, quita y permite la vida, distorsiona la realidad, informa y desinforma. Todo es parte de una estrategia global de confabulación y ocultamiento de la verdad. En conclusión, la serie de televisión permite observar los regímenes de hipervisibilidad e intervención de la máquina gubernamental actual y es, en esta medida, un punto de entrada para reconocer problemas sociales y políticos de total actualidad. Palabras clave: series de televisión; cine; conspiración; nuda vida; control; Archivos Secretos X; estado de excepción; biopolítica. * Artículo producto de los proyectos de investigación FONDECYT n.º 1141289 y FONDECYT n.º 1161253, PLU n.º 1110 y PLU n.º 120010 financiados por el Consejo Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnología.
