Prior to using the material contained within please be sure to discuss with your group what you plan to include in your game. Lamp’s Light was written for mature audiences. It is designed to portray a gritty, unsettling, and evocative setting so you and your players can delve into aspects of the game that are not typically explored. Our intent is not to shock, offend, or demean anyone. That said, this supplement explores many behaviors and situations that may not be suitable for all audiences. There are many ways to react to horror: revulsion, disgust, fear, resolve, and a need for justice being the ones I hope to elicit with this book. I do not take this subject matter lightly, as I’m sure you do not either. If you need help, or know someone that does, please use the resources available. You’re not alone.

  • The Bishop's Secret by Fergus Hume, Author of "The Mystery of a Hansom Cab," "For the Defense," "The Harlequin Opal," "The Girl from Malta," Etc
    THE BISHOP'S SECRET BY FERGUS HUME, AUTHOR OF "THE MYSTERY OF A HANSOM CAB," "FOR THE DEFENSE," "THE HARLEQUIN OPAL," "THE GIRL FROM MALTA," ETC. CHICAGO AND NEW YORK: RAND, McNALLY & COMPANY, PUBLISHERS. Copyright, 1900, by Rand, McNally & Co. Copyright, 1906, by Rand, McNally & Co. PREFACE. In his earlier works, notably in "The Mystery of a Hansom Cab" and "The Silent House in Pimlico," Mr. Hume won a reputation second to none for plot of the stirring, ingenious, misleading, and finally surprising kind, and for working out his plot in vigorous and picturesque English. In "The Bishop's Secret," while there is no falling off in plot and style, there is a welcome and marvelous broadening out as to the cast of characters, representing an unusually wide range of typical men and women. These are not laboriously described by the author, but are made to reveal themselves in action and speech in a way that has, for the reader, all the charm of personal intercourse with living people. Mr. Hume's treatment of the peculiar and exclusive ecclesiastical society of a small English cathedral city is quite worthy of Anthony Trollope, and his leading character, Bishop Pendle, is equal to Trollope's best bishop. The Reverend Mr. Cargrim, the Bishop's poor and most unworthy protegè, is a meaner Uriah Heep. Mrs. Pansey is the embodiment of all shrewishness, and yields unlimited amusement. The Gypsies are genuine—such as George Borrow, himself, would have pictured them— not the ignorant caricatures so frequently drawn by writers too lazy to study their subject.

  • Synaesthetic Dress: Episodes of Sensational Objects in Performance Art, 1955-1975
    SYNAESTHETIC DRESS: EPISODES OF SENSATIONAL OBJECTS IN PERFORMANCE ART, 1955-1975 By © 2019 Samantha Lyons Submitted to the graduate degree program in the Kress Foundation Department of Art History and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Chair: Dr. David Cateforis Dr. Maki Kaneko Dr. John Pultz Dr. Charles Eldredge May Tveit Date Defended: December 9, 2019 The dissertation committee for Samantha Lyons certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: SYNAESTHETIC DRESS: EPISODES OF SENSATIONAL OBJECTS IN PERFORMANCE ART, 1955-1975 Chair: Dr. David Cateforis Date Approved: December 9, 2019 ii Abstract This study examines the significance of clothing-like sculptural forms in the performance practices of three international postwar and contemporary artists: Atsuko Tanaka (Japanese, 1932-2005), Hélio Oiticica (Brazilian, 1937-1980) and Robert Kushner (American, b. 1949). These three artists occupy a special position within the development of performance and body art during the postwar decades for their focus on the sensorial and interactive properties of clothing- like objects. I propose the new term of synaesthetic dress as an interpretive concept to characterize and study the wearable, multi-sensory, and participatory forms in their diverse practices and as a strategy for collaboration and social engagement. My research seeks an understanding of how Tanaka, Oiticica, and Kushner draw upon the language of clothing—a form that typically contains and defines the individual body—to create alternative material, social, and artistic sites for collective experience. Counter to traditional interpretations of clothing that tend to view it as a marker or relic of the artist’s body, or as a material that can construct, perform or contest various identities, this study proposes to see—or rather—sense clothing in a new light, through the thought-provoking performances of artists who foreground the multisensory experience of their audiences and participants.
