Cure for Sodomy” was deemed to be sufficiently inflammatory that the police escorting the National Pilgrimage of Our Lady of Walsingham in 2004 required that it be taken down (fig. 9).1 Disgust at this official line can be found, as a component of a substantial campaign of vilification of the shrine, on the website of the European Institute of Protestant Studies (EIPS) which is housed in the Paisley Jubilee Complex of the Martyrs‟ Memorial Free Presbyterian Church in Belfast. Its President is Ian Paisley, until recently First Minister of Northern Ireland, founder and moderator of the Free Presbyterian Church in Belfast and possessor of an Honorary Doctorate from the evangelical Bob Jones University in Greenville, South Carolina. The purpose of the institute is to “expound the Bible and expose the Papacy” and it offers courses which include “showing Roman Catholics the way to Christ,” “False doctrines of Roman Catholicism,” and “The Church of Rome and Politics (an exposure of the Vatican conspiracy to overthrow civil government from the twelfth century to the present, with particular emphasis on the history of Papal assaults against Britain and Rome's contemporary involvement in the European Union).”2 [Fig.

Cambridge: Cambridge UP, 2006. 374-391. Hollywood, soon to become the United States’ national film industry, was founded in the early teens by a group of film companies which came to Los Angeles at first to escape the winter conditions of their New York- and Chicago-based production locations. However, the advantages of production in southern California—particularly the varied landscapes in the region crucial for exterior, on-location photography—soon made Hollywood the dominant film production center in the country.i Hollywood, of course, is not synonymous with filmmaking in the United States. Before the early 1910s, American filmmaking was mostly New York-based, and specialized in the production of short films (circa 1909, a one-reel short, or approximately 10 minutes). At the time, French film companies dominated global film distribution, and it was more likely that one would see a French film in the United States than an American-produced one.

  • Mabel Normand
    Mabel Normand Also Known As: Mabel Fortescue Lived: November 9, 1892 - February 23, 1930 Worked as: co-director, comedienne, director, film actress, producer, scenario writer Worked In: United States by Simon Joyce, Jennifer Putzi Mabel Normand starred in at least one hundred and sixty-seven film shorts and twenty-three full- length features, mainly for Mack Sennett’s Keystone Film Company, and was one of the earliest silent actors to function as her own director. She was also one of the first leading performers to appear on film without a previous background in the theatre (having begun her career in modeling), to be named in the title of her films (beginning with 1912’s Mabel’s Lovers), and to have her own studio (the ill-fated Mabel Normand Feature Film Company). That her contributions to early film history are not better known is attributable in part to her involvement in the Hollywood scandals of the 1920s, and in part to our reliance on the self-interested memoirs of her better-known colleagues (especially Sennett and Charlie Chaplin) following her death at age thirty-eight. It is hard to get an accurate picture from such questionable and contradictory recollections, or from interviews with Normand herself, filtered as they often were through a sophisticated publicity operation at Keystone. Film scholars who have worked with these same sources have often proved just as discrepant and unreliable, especially in their accounts of her directorial contributions. Normand’s early career included stints at the Biograph Company, working with D. W. Griffith, and at the Vitagraph Company, yet it was her work at Keystone that solidified her image as slapstick comedienne.

  • PDF of Arthur W. Spalding Papers II
    Register of the Arthur W. Spalding Papers II Collection 296 Center for Adventist Research James White Library Andrews University Berrien Springs, MI 49104-1440 February 2013 Processed by: Samuel Pagán Arthur W. Spalding Papers II Collection 296 Scope and Content: Arthur Whitefield Spalding (January 24, 1877 to December 15, 1953) was an Adventist author, poet, pastor, and educator. He wrote thirty books and published more than seven hundred articles and one hundred poems. He served as an editor of The Watchman Magazine, and pioneered family-life education in Seventh-day Adventist schools and colleges. In 1921 he was invited to become the secretary of the newly formed General Conference Home Commission. Through this venue he published and lectured on educating parents for child training and character development until his retirement in 1942. This collection has research materials used by Allan William Freed for his dissertation: Arthur Whitefield Spalding: A Study of His Life and Contributions to Family- Life Education in the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Other than some items of biographical and personal worth, the substantive part of this collection is primarily of A. W. Spalding’s published writings spanning forty years. The collection is divided in chronological order by type of items (books, articles, etc.). It also includes writings by other authors on the topic of education for family life, and includes documents pertaining to the Home Commission Department. There is a second collection with the same name in the Center for Adventist Research. The provenance–or history–of the collection is different so they were not combined. A user of this collection needs to be aware of and peruse the other collection as they do overlap.

  • Adam Bede by George Eliot Book One Chapter I the Workshop with a Single Drop of Ink for a Mirror, the Egyptian Sorcerer Undertak
    Adam Bede by George Eliot Book One Chapter I The Workshop With a single drop of ink for a mirror, the Egyptian sorcerer undertakes to reveal to any chance comer far-reaching visions of the past. This is what I undertake to do for you, reader. With this drop of ink at the end of my pen, I will show you the roomy workshop of Mr. Jonathan Burge, carpenter and builder, in the village of Hayslope, as it appeared on the eighteenth of June, in the year of our Lord 1799. The afternoon sun was warm on the five workmen there, busy upon doors and window-frames and wainscoting. A scent of pine-wood from a tentlike pile of planks outside the open door mingled itself with the scent of the elder-bushes which were spreading their summer snow close to the open window opposite; the slanting sunbeams shone through the transparent shavings that flew before the steady plane, and lit up the fine grain of the oak panelling which stood propped against the wall. On a heap of those soft shavings a rough, grey shepherd dog had made himself a pleasant bed, and was lying with his nose between his fore-paws, occasionally wrinkling his brows to cast a glance at the tallest of the five workmen, who was carving a shield in the centre of a wooden mantelpiece. It was to this workman that the strong barytone belonged which was heard above the sound of plane and hammer singing-- Awake, my soul, and with the sun Thy daily stage of duty run; Shake off dull sloth..

  • The Memoirs of a White Elephant
    c-> fUWsrlXT' > =n O i fn 8 %>*^| "V/fMa/MMft.jUV* . THE MEMOIRS OF A WHITE ELEPHANT THE MEMOIRS OF A WHITE ELEPHANT BY JUDITH GAUTIER TRANSLATED FROM THE FRENCH BY S. A. B. HARVEY ILLUSTRATED BY L. H. SMITH AND S. B. KITE Copyright, 1916 by DUFFIELD & COMPANY /0,3 . FOREWORD (Avant-propos) We are told by writers of antiquity that ele- phants have written sentences in Greek, and that one of them was even known to speak. There is, therefore, nothing unreasonable in the supposi- tion that the White Elephant of this history, the famous "Iravata" so celebrated throughout Asia, should have written his own memoirs. The story of his long existence at times so glorious, and at other times so full of misfor- tune in the kingdom of Siam, and the India of the Maharajahs and the English, is full of most curious and interesting adventure. After being almost worshipped as an idol, Ira- vata becomes a warrior; he is made prisoner with his master, whose life he saves, and whom he assists to escape. 578639 LISRAR? FOREWORD Later he is deemed worthy to be the guardian and companion of the lovely little Princess Par- vati, for whose amusement he invents wonderful games, and to whom he renders a loving service. We see how a wicked sentiment having crept into the heart of the faithful Elephant, usually so wise and good, he is separated for a long time from his beloved Princess, and meets with pain- ful and trying experiences. But at last he once more finds his devoted friend the Princess, and her forgiveness restores him to happiness.

    King_Ch01 6/17/08 18:35 Page 19 1. “The Fun Factory” Class, Comedy, and Popular Culture, 1912–1914 One has to hand this to the Americans: with slapstick films they have created a form that offers a counterweight to their reality. If in that reality they subject the world to an often unbearable discipline, the film in turn dismantles this self-imposed order quite forcefully. siegfried kracauer, “Artistisches und Amerikanisches” (1926) When, in 1912, the Moving Picture World critic W.Stephen Bush lamented the “absence of genuine humor” in a majority of comic films, he was merely making explicit a perception that had long been accepted at the grass-roots level.1 Feeling short-changed by an industry that had drasti- cally cut back its comedy output since 1908, theater owners had taken to writing to trade journals to voice their dissatisfactions. “There is too much high class drama, which cannot be understood by the average working man,” noted one such exhibitor. “A very large proportion seems to thor- oughly enjoy the old Essanay slap-stick variety.”2 Filmmakers, too, acknowl- edged the demand: “Can you write a good comedy?” Photoplay asked its readers in October 1912. “Try it, for the producer will pay more attention to it just now than any other.”3 “Comedies, comedies, comedies,” a studio sce- narist demanded in another issue of the same publication. “Get your scriptwriting readers to try their hand at comedies; we need them, all film producers want them.”4 No doubt there was reason to be thankful, then, when the formation of a new, all-comedy company was announced that fall.

  • The Irish in American Cinema 1910 – 1930: Recurring Narratives and Characters
    The Irish in American Cinema 1910 – 1930: Recurring Narratives and Characters THOMAS JAMES SCOTT, University of Ulster ABSTRACT This paper will consider cinematic depictions of the Irish between 1910 and 1930. American cinema during these years, like those that preceded them, contained a range of stereotypical Irish characters. However, as cinema began to move away from short sketches and produce longer films, more complex plots and refined Irish characters began to appear. The onscreen Irish became vehicles for recurring themes, the majority of which had uplifting narratives. This paper will discuss common character types, such as the Irish cop and domestic servant, and subjects such as the migration narrative, the social reform narrative and the inter-ethnic comedy. It will also briefly consider how Irish depictions in the 1910s and 1920s compared to earlier representations. While the emphasis will be on films viewed at archives, including the University of California, Los Angeles Film and Television Archive, or acquired through private and commercial sellers, the paper will also reflect on some films that are currently considered lost. KEYWORDS Irish, cinema, representation, stereotypes, migrants. Introduction Feature Productions’ early ‘talkie’ Irish Fantasy (Orville O. Dull, 1929) should be considered important for two reasons. One, it is one of the earliest Irish-themed musicals to survive in its entirety. Two, it was produced by William Cameron Menzies, who would go on to win an Academy Award for his production design on MGM’s Gone With the Wind (Victor Fleming, 1939). The film centres on an old Irish man explaining the meaning of the three leaves of the shamrock to his uninformed grandson, who remarks ‘sure they’re only weeds.’ The first leaf signifies what the Irish are, ‘happy-go-lucky with warm blood in our hearts.’ The second symbolises the big hearts of the Irish who were forced to migrate to America.
