If He's the Man Who Are You? 1 0 0 2 y l u J Restoring the hearts of the fathers to the children Don’t Know the Truth? Why Not Make It Up? But the monsters of the deep and the birds of prey are a similitude of covetous men and transgressors. For as the fish and the fowls are of one nature,–some indeed abide in their natural state, and do no harm to those weaker than themselves, but keep the law of God, and eat of the seeds of the earth; others of them, again, transgress the law of God, and eat flesh, and injure those weaker than themselves: thus, too, the righteous, keeping the law of God, bite and injure none, but live holily and righteously. But robbers, and murderers, and godless persons are like monsters of the deep, and wild beasts, and birds of prey; for they virtually devour those weaker than themselves. The race, then, of fishes and of creeping things, though partaking of God's blessing, received no very distinguish- ing property. And on the sixth day, God having made the quadrupeds, and wild beasts, and the land reptiles, pronounced no blessing upon them, reserving His blessing for man, whom He was about to create on the sixth day. The quadrupeds, too, and wild beasts, were made for a type of some men, who neither know nor worship God, but mind earthly things, and repent not. For those who turn from their iniquities and live righteously, in spirit fly upwards like birds, and mind the things that are above, and are wellpleasing to the will of God. But those who do not know nor worship God, are like birds which have wings, but cannot fly nor soar to the high 3 r things of God. Thus, too, though such persons are called men, yet being e b pressed down with sins, they mindqhri/a grovelling and earthly things. And the m animals are named wild beasts [ ], from their being hunted u qhreu/esqai [ ] N , not as if they had been made evil or venomous from the , 2 first–for nothing was made evil by God, but all things good, yea, very 1 e good,–but the sin in which man was concerned brought evil upon them. m For when man transgressed, they also transgressed with him. For as, if u l o Continued on back cover V Continued from front cover the master of the house himself acts rightly, the domestics also of neces- sity conduct themselves well; but if the master sins, the servants also sin with him; so in like manner it came to pass, that in the case of man's sin, he being master, all that was subject to him sinned with him. When, therefore, man again shall have made his way back to his natural condition, and no longer does evil, those also shall be restored to their original gentleness. But as to what relates to the creation of man, his own creation can- not be explained by man, though it is a succinct account of it which holy Scripture gives. For when God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, after Our likeness,” He first intimates the dignity of man. For God having made all things by His Word, and having reckoned them all mere bye-works, reckons the creation of man to be the only work worthy of His own hands. Moreover, God is found, as if needing help, to say, “Let Us make man in Our image, after Our likeness.” But to no one else than to His own Word and wisdom did He say, “Let Us make.” And when He had made and blessed him, that he might increase and replenish the earth, He put all things under his dominion, and at his service; and He appointed from the first that he should find nutriment from the fruits of the earth, and from seeds, and herbs, and acorns, having at the same time appointed that the animals be of habits similar to man’s, that they also might eat of all the seeds of the earth.

  • Definition of Pantomime: ​A Theatrical Entertainment, Mainly for Children
    Definition of Pantomime: A theatrical entertainment, mainly for children, which involves music, topical jokes, and slapstick comedy and is ​ based on a fairy tale or nursery story, usually produced around Christmas. A typical Pantomime storyline: Normally, a pantomime is an adapted fairytale so it is usually a magical love story which involves something ​ going wrong (usually the fault of an evil baddy) but the ending (often after a fight between good and evil) is always happy and results in true love. Key characters in Pantomime: The female love interest, e.g Snow White, Cinderella etc The Handsome Prince e.g Prince Charming The evil character e.g the evil Queen in Snow White The faithful sidekick - e.g Buttons in Cinderella The Pantomime Dame - provides most of the comedy - an exaggerated female, always played by a man for laughs How to act in a pantomime style: 1. Your character is an over-the-top type’, not a real person, so exaggerate as much as you can, in gesture, voice and movement 2. Speak to the audience - if you are a ‘Goody’, your character must be likeable or funny. If you are a ‘Baddy’, insult your audience, make them dislike you from the start. 3. There is always a narrator - make sure she knows speaks confidently and knows the story well. 4. Encourage the audience to be involved by asking for the audience’s help, e.g “If you see that naughty boy will you tell me?” 5. If you are playing that ‘naughty boy’, make eye contact with the audience and creep on stage.

These events center around the figure of the Krampus, a beast-like, punishing “devil” that accompanies St. Nicholas on December 5, the eve of his feast day. By 2010, groups of people in US cities were staging their own Krampusnacht processions in downtown areas, referencing the European enactments while simultaneously innovating their embodiments to meaningfully interact with the Christmas season in the United States. Participation in these events increases annually and the Krampus figure’s presence online and in popular media is on the rise.

  • English Christmas Pantomime: Theatre Or Community Activism
    Journal of Literature and Art Studies, July 2016, Vol. 6, No. 7, 804-810 doi: 10.17265/2159-5836/2016.07.011 D DAVID PUBLISHING English Christmas Pantomime: Theatre or Community Activism Pete Reader, MFA Seton Hall University, South Orange, NJ, USA How is English Christmas panto community activism? The structure of pantomime has not changed in a hundred years, but allows for local creativity to work within its framework to be both family entertainment and social satire. This basic structure is founded on a children’s story like Puss’n’boots or Cinderella. The story and character types remain the same; but the community can add their own jokes and commentary to make the play relevant to themselves and their community. What is added by the community says a lot about who they are and what they care about. The company Price-Waterhouse-Coopers produces their pantomime as management training and team building while engaging the community. The Basel Swiss panto raises money for African Charities. The Maplewood, NJ panto raises money for the homeless and the Jaguar Charity panto in Birmingham performs to disadvantaged children and adults. The productions can be extravagant or threadbare, but share the same goal of raising cheer and goodwill to the benefit of the community. What is it, then, about panto that brings a community together in such civic mindedness? Keywords: English Christmas pantomine, community engagement, theatre, activism Historical Overview English Christmas Pantomime is an odd form of theatre that serves as a vehicle for local communities to come together, in a form of civic activism, to present plays for the benefit of the community and local charities.

Guardian angels Gabriel and Agnes are confused when they hear God is sending the Prince of Peace to earth as a baby. A baby!? No army, no muscle, no clout?

  • Drama Revision Guide Year 7: Pantomime
    Drama revision guide Year 7: Pantomime The History of Pantomime Pantomime literally means “all kinds” of “mime” (panto-mime) . It is generally acknowledged that British pantomime is modelled on the early masques of the Elizabethan and Stuart days. In the 14th century the early masques were musical, mime or spoken dramas, usually performed in grand houses although by the 17th century they were really no more than an excuse for a theme party. The timing of the British pantomime at Christmas and the role reversal of the lead characters (the principal boy being played by a girl and the Dame by a man) may have also evolved from the Tudor “Feast of Fools”, presided over by the Lord of Misrule. The feast was an unruly event, involving much drinking, revelry and role reversal. The Lord of Misrule, normally a commoner with a reputation of knowing how to enjoy himself, was selected to direct the entertainment. The festival is thought to have originated from the benevolent Roman masters who allowed their servants to be the boss for a while. Social Context Pantomimes take place around the Christmas period and are nearly always based on well known children’s stories such as Peter Pan, Aladdin, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty etc. Pantomimes are performed not only in the best theatres in the land but also in village halls throughout Britain. Whether a lavish professional performance or a hammy local amateur dramatic production, all pantomimes are well attended. Pantomimes are a family show that aim to make both the children and parents laugh. There are recurring characters (stock characters) in Pantomimes.

  • Christmas on Stamps That Is. Ever Since the Words 'Xmas 1898' Appear
    Christmas has been around for over a hundred years – Christmas on stamps that is. Ever since the words ‘Xmas 1898’ appeared on an issue from Canada, over 150 countries have issued stamps to honor this holiday. Due to the high volume of stamps, in 1989, the American Topical Association asked Dorothy Henderson, then President of the Christmas Philatelic Club (CPC), to recommend someone to compile a list of Christmas stamps, which they could add to their collection of Topical CHECKLISTS. Everleigh (Ev) Foster (CPC #179), with the assistance of James (Jim) Bie (CPC #876) undertook the task, which took two and a half years to complete. It was published by the ATA in 1991 and listed every stamp (each with its own individual description) from 159 countries, from the earliest date of 1898 until 1990. It is currently still available from the ATA as "Christmas Stamps of the World" -- ATA Handbook 120. After 1990, an annual update was submitted by Mr. Foster and published in bi-monthly issues of CPC's newsletter, the YULE LOG. This continued until his death in 2000. After his passing, Christina Howland-Stitt (CPC #810) took over the task that had proven so helpful to Christmas stamp collectors. It is unfortunate that circumstances prevented Christina from being able to continue the work she had so ably undertaken. The current updates -- from 1991 on -- are now done by Patricia Prevey CPC #971. These have incorporated information taken from YULE LOG issues since the last entry in Ev Foster's "Christmas Stamps of the World", after which recent issues by country as they appear in Scott Magazine Monthly are used as the basis for the updated list appearing on this web site.

  • Mummers Plays As We Know Them Today, Have a Very Convoluted History
    1 Sermonette A Millennia of Mummers I was first introduced to the Christmas concept of the mummer’s plays while serving as minister in the Wakefield Mass UU congregation, who created their own version of this ancient script and opened it to the public just before Christmas, over 10 years ago and it has become a very popular and well attended annual event. I would like to share some background on the play you will be seeing this morning. The word Mumming comes from the word mime which began initially as a folk play, a silent pantomime or mum dramatic performance. In time words were added to enhance the story. Its origins also come from the Greek term for mask known as “masking” or “guising”and costumes were later created and worn, which went along with the story being told. Over the years mummers in The British Isles and across Europe acted out a number of ritualized folk tales which date back a thousand years to the pagan rituals of fertility, death and revival. Historically the Mummers Plays as we know them today, have a very convoluted history. They are rooted in the practices of the early pagan societies of Europe and have been adapted by the early church fathers to reflect the legend of St. George and the Dragon. The story has been elaborated upon over the years and is filled with mysticism, and silliness, all with religious undertones, depending upon the country of its origin and the purpose the actors have attributed to their performance. To give you a bit of early history beginning with St.
