Dr.phil. Martin Löschnigg Graz, 2013 Dedication For my grandmother (*1918 - †2013). “Them as can do has to do for them as can't. And someone has to speak up for them as has no voices.” ― Terry Pratchett, The Wee Free Men1 This is a topsy-turvy THANK YOU to all the people who helped me write and FINISH this thesis! Dear Prof. Löschnigg, thank you sooo much for your patience, concerns, and good advice! My husband David: you are wonderful! Thanks for reading and re-reading and re-re-re- reading everything and for reminding me that I’m a perfectionist. Love you! Cecilia Servatius: you are awesome, but I think you already knew that. Thanks for all the formatting, reading and long “I hate diploma thesis” talks we had. My parents, Peter and Koma for supporting me. Now you don’t have to ask anymore when I’ll hand in, right? Everybody else who read and corrected the thesis and kept me alive and sane(ish) with coffee! You guys rock! 1 Chandler, Otis et al. (2013). “The Wee Free Men Quotes“. Goodreads. [Online].

Chatas ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I owe a great deal of thanks to Professor Chris Pye, without whom this thesis likely would not have been possible and unquestionably would not have been as rewarding. I am immensely grateful for his thoughtful feedback, valuable guidance, and unending support, as well as his willingness to both challenge and encourage me at every turn. I would also like to thank my friends for letting me ramble to them about Shakespeare and for always believing in me, even—and especially—when I doubted myself. And finally, to my parents and brother, who inspire me and whose support means more to me than I can express: thank you for everything. S. Chatas INTRODUCTION: THE WORLD ON THE STAGE The Renaissance was a time marked by a fascination with subjectivity and inner life. Public laws and social norms were intimately linked to the personal, interior sphere and conceptions of self. Primogeniture weighed on relationships between brothers and between fathers and sons;1 official and unwritten rules requiring clothing to align with class and gender pervaded individual choices and understandings of gender (and reflected the lack of scientific understanding of sexual difference);2 there were even laws that regulated public lamentation.3 Of course, the exchange between these external social structures and rules and the inner world did not flow in only one direction.

  • Constructing the Witch in Contemporary American Popular Culture
    "SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES": CONSTRUCTING THE WITCH IN CONTEMPORARY AMERICAN POPULAR CULTURE Catherine Armetta Shufelt A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December 2007 Committee: Dr. Angela Nelson, Advisor Dr. Andrew M. Schocket Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Donald McQuarie Dr. Esther Clinton © 2007 Catherine A. Shufelt All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Angela Nelson, Advisor What is a Witch? Traditional mainstream media images of Witches tell us they are evil “devil worshipping baby killers,” green-skinned hags who fly on brooms, or flaky tree huggers who dance naked in the woods. A variety of mainstream media has worked to support these notions as well as develop new ones. Contemporary American popular culture shows us images of Witches on television shows and in films vanquishing demons, traveling back and forth in time and from one reality to another, speaking with dead relatives, and attending private schools, among other things. None of these mainstream images acknowledge the very real beliefs and traditions of modern Witches and Pagans, or speak to the depth and variety of social, cultural, political, and environmental work being undertaken by Pagan and Wiccan groups and individuals around the world. Utilizing social construction theory, this study examines the “historical process” of the construction of stereotypes surrounding Witches in mainstream American society as well as how groups and individuals who call themselves Pagan and/or Wiccan have utilized the only media technology available to them, the internet, to resist and re- construct these images in order to present more positive images of themselves as well as build community between and among Pagans and nonPagans.

  • Louder Than War Favourites
    Albums of the Year 2018 : The Top 25 Ged Babey 9 December, 2018 As voted for by 30 of our writers, here are the Top 25 Albums of 2018. The Number One received more than twice the votes as the second place. The next ten were hotly contested with the narrowest of margins, and the rest got the same number of votes -so are in random order to be frank. But… Every one is a winner! 2018 was a great year for music and the Number 1 is no surprise… ONE IDLES Joy As An Act of Resistance (Partisan) Punk Rock reinvented and not wearing a mask of masculinity or yoke of tradition, but a wicked smile and its broken heart exposed but still beating in its chest. Punk rock which instead of calling for Anarchy and saying I Don’t Care is shouting UNITY! and LOVE IS ALL. Reviewed here by Ged Babey IDLES - DANNY NEDELKO TWO The Blinders Columbia (Modern Sky) This power trio, this band of very modern troubadours, this enlightened youth, deliver an album so explosive, so perfect, it defies any attempt at categorisation. There are odd time signatures, indefinite song structures but the tracks ebb and flow beautifully. Columbia as an album is a single piece of art as a concept. Listen, track by track, join up the dots, get the message loud and clear – England is indeed dreaming. Reviewed here by Nigel Carr The Blinders - L’etat C’est Moi [Music Video] THREE ILL : We Are ILL (Box Records) All-woman five-piece… currently based in Manchester, who highlight that quality music does not have to mean an emulation of that which has gone before.

Contact Information: Email: [email protected] Address: Dusni 1/928, Prague 11000, Czech Republic Cell phone: 011 (420) 739.078.229 Skype: brendazejdl The Devil’s Mistress 2 THE DEVIL’S MISTRESS SYNOPSIS: This play is inspired by actual incidents from 1620. Acts I and III are set in a prison in Leonberg, Germany and Act II takes place in the Prague castle. KATHARINA is the mother of the King’s Chief Mathematician, JOHANNES KEPLER. She is imprisoned in a dungeon and pressured to confess to witchcraft; first by treachery and then by intimidation through being shown torture instruments used on another woman while her son debates the validity of witchcraft trials with JEAN BODIN, the leading demonologist of that time, (in reality Bodin died in 1596, over 20 years before and never met Kepler). The result of this debate will determine her fate: freedom, torture or execution. This is an expose filled with the political intrigues and corruption that existed during these witch trials. CAST OF CHARACTERS: [7-8 actors needed if 2 can double, 2 women & 6 men] KATHARINA KEPLER: [60+ yrs old] Johanne Kepler’s mother, an herbalist unjustly jailed for witchcraft. Pious, and disliked by people in her village for meddling and insolence. JOHANNES KEPLER: [40-50yrs old]- Kepler was a slight man with a goatee, wears a dark suit with a starched ruff collar; he was slightly stooped from bending over his calculations and he squinted from bad eyesight.

The Great Tragedies What is drama? Drama can be defined in countless ways. However, a definition of drama that incorporates the three key terms-imitative action, stage and audience- is a convincing one. Drama is nothing but a factual/fictitious imitative action that could be enacted on stage before an audience. Drama is one of the earliest genres of literature. Every human being has an inherent impulse either to pretend he/she is someone or something else or to see such a pretention. For instance, in a classroom when the teacher asks the student why was he late to the class, the student pretends that he was late because of a seriously genuine reason. In some cases the teacher also pretends and excuses the student taking his reason for late coming seriously. Students of the entire class were enjoying these pretentions. Quite often in our lives, we enact more dramas than encountering real life situations.

BLAIR (V.O.) During the Gulf War, the American military strapped loudspeakers to their Blackhawks. As they flew into battle, they played AC/DC. Before long, enemy combatants knew that if they ever heard “Thunderstruck” playing in the distance, they were about to die. The beach is empty. It’s pouring. The surf is voracious. A lone girl walks across the sand: BLAIR CRITCHER (22, rock- climbing jacked). Clad in dirty sweatpants, a tank top, and earbuds, she fights through the wind to the water. She’s listening to AC/DC. As the hurricane approaches, Blair stands knee-deep in the churning ocean waves, closes her eyes, and raises her arms. She smiles. Suddenly, LIGHTNING STRIKES BLAIR repeatedly, electrifying her with the energy of the overwhelming storm. SMASH TO BLACK. bad witch 2. ACT 1 INT.
