  • Summary and Synopsis
    THE ONCE AND FUTURE TURANDOT A Comic Opera in Three Acts An Original Variation on the Turandot Story by Patricia Herzog Copyright © 2016 Patricia Herzog Summary and Synopsis The Turandot most of us know is the eponymous heroine of Giacomo Puccini’s opera, completed by Franco Alfano in 1926, two years after the composer’s death: a spellbindingly beautiful woman utterly devoid of feeling, an ice princess, barbarously cruel, man-hating and man-slaying—until she herself is slain by love. The versions of the Turandot story that most influenced Puccini and his librettists, Giuseppe Adami and Renato Simoni, are plays by Carlo Gozzi (1762) and Friedrich Schiller (1801). In these works, Turandot is still desperate not to marry, but her reasoning is different, as is her reason for accepting Prince Calaf. Puccini’s Turandot vows never to be possessed by a man because the spirit of a female ancestor, dragged off and killed by a conquering invader, dwells inside her. There in no mention of such an ancestor in either the Gozzi or the Schiller. In the Gozzi, Turandot offers this explanation to Calaf: “ … I am not heartless. But I abhor your sex, and I defend myself in the only way I know, so that I may remain free from men. Why should I not be as free as you are?”i The enlightened Schiller goes him one better: “I am not cruel, as they say, but shun the yoke of Man’s despotic sway. In virgin freedom would I live and die …. Shall I, the daughter of an emperor, not have that birthright which belongs to all? Be slave to brutish force, that makes your sex our lord? … If nature dowered me with beauteous treasure you tyrants think t’was all to serve your pleasure.

  • TV Outside The
    1 MARCO POLO on Netflix John Fusco: Creator/Executive Producer/Co-Showrunner John Fusco has an enduring interest in the spiritual aspects of warrior cultures and acknowledges a common “red thread” that runs through Native American and Eastern philosophy. Before Marco Polo, he was perhaps best known for writing the screenplays for the blockbusters Young Guns (featuring Emilio Estevez as Billy the Kid) and sequel, Young Guns II —which put a modern spin on the classic Western formula. His screenplays aren’t simply inhabited by wholly virtuous good guys and sadistic bad guys. His characters are layered and complex. It’s not just “cowboys and Indians.” Check out Thunderheart, a contemporary Western from 1992, featuring Val Kilmer as an FBI agent of Sioux heritage, investigating a murder on a reservation in South Dakota (at the site of the Wounded Knee massacre). The movie, directed by Michael Apted, is a crime-drama that shows the plight of and discrimination against Native Americans; based on true events, it’s a story told with empathy and verve. The same sensitive approach to rough and tumble storytelling can be found in Fusco’s screenplay for Hidalgo, a 2004 film based on the legend of American long distance rider Frank Hopkins (Viggo Mortensen) who raced his mustang (Hidalgo) in 1891 Arabia. Hopkins was also a dispatch rider for the US government and is known for delivering a message to the US 7th Cavalry Regiment authorizing the Wounded Knee Massacre of Lakota Sioux. If you think you know the “true story,” Hidalgo will give you a suspenseful history lesson and blow your mind.

Become a LibraryThing Author. The last two chapters, sadly, detail the decline of Khubilai and Mongol rule over China, including growing fiscal mismanagement, a dispute between incompatible goals of ruling gently over the Chinese and exploiting the wealth of China for failed invasions of Japan, Vietnam, Burma, and Java, before the book closes with a melancholy look at the succession after Khubilai. If you need to write a term paper on Khubilai Khan, this is your book. There are no discussion topics on this book yet. Kublali Conquers Yunnan Ogodei Khan died in He relied heavily on Chinese advisors, and in had learned about Chinese Buddhism from the monk Hai-yun, who would become a close friend of his.

Partners analyze a chronology of events (two corresponding timelines) and an organizational chart to frontload and conceptualize information. Five Literature Groups analyze selected primary and secondary sources by sourcing documents, conducting a close read, corroborating data and contextualizing events. Small groups with representation from all five literature circles develop a hypothesis about the content of the lesson by relating it to one of the “11 Universal Themes” in a poster. Students then respond to the prompt in an essay supported by a thesis statement and evidence. Inquiry Question: What was the most important element used by the Mongols to control their vast empire?

The changing empires over time (as well as the "shifting sands" of the geographic landmass) made it difficult to consider this as a single area. Moreover, the cultural exchanges which took place across this landmass, the transport of ideas as well as goods, and the "timelessness" as well as the contemporary relevance, all make the task even more difficult to categorize. A person can enter a bazaar, which is "centerless," from many directions and wander through, exiting from a totally different door. The plan is to enter the bazaar delineated in this resource guide through any of these gates: the early history of inner Asia; the Silk Road; the Mongol Empire; Islam; playing the Great Game; or in the modern period.

  • The Future This Week Two Week Overview This Week Cont
    the Interesting Facts for the Week Khutulun (c. 1260 – c. 1306), also known as Aigiarne, Aiyurug, Khotol Tsagaan or Ay Yaruq (literally Moonlight) was the most famous daughter of Kaidu, a cousin of Kublai Khan. Her father was most pleased by her abilities, and she accompanied him on military campaigns. Marco Polo and Rashid al-Din both wrote about her. Marco Polo described Khutulun as a superb warrior, one who could ride into enemy ranks and snatch a captive as easily as a hawk snatches a chicken. She assisted her father in many battles, particularly against the Yuan Dynasty of her cousin the Great Khan – Kublai (r. 1260–94). Khutulun insisted that any man who wished to marry her must defeat her in wrestling. Winning horses from competitions and the wagers of would-be suitors, it is said that she gathered a herd numbering ten thousand. this week this week cont. the future After School Detention Remind students that we are still in April 23-28 Kent school and need to keep the rules in After School Detention mind (cell phone usage, dress code, We are moving through the time of Pena being good citizens with each other, year when students are out of the Teacher Workday—Monday, April 23rd will be etc.) AND keep working hard. classroom for many activities.
