    SONGS OF THE NATIVITY John Calvin Selected Sermons on Luke 1 & 2 Translated into English by ROBERT WHITE THE BANNER OF TRUTH TRUST 4 THE JUDGE OF ALL THE WORLD 'He has plucked princes from their seats, and has raised up the lowly. 53 He has filled with good things those who were hungry, and has left the rich empty. 54 He has received Israel his servant in remembrance of his mercy, 55 According as he spoke to our fathers, promising mercy to Abraham and his seedf or ever' (Luke r: 5 2- 5 5). t1 A ) e have seen already that, because God resists the proud, 'V V we cannot do better than walk before him in sincerity. For if we try to promote ourselves by high-fl.own ambition and careful scheming, God is bound to intervene and bring everything undone, so that it all ends in ruin and confusion. Let us not be too clever, but be sober-minded. If we did not live modestly, but rather aimed above our calling, we would become like wayward beasts-the faster we went, the more likely we would be to break our necks! That is why Mary continues her song with the words, 'God plucks princes and the mighty from their seats, and raises up the lowly.' Unbelievers, when they see the way the world is always chang• ing, think that God plays with humankind as with a ball. That is the kind of thing men say when they blaspheme God, or else they think that change is merely random.1 So what we have to notice is that, when God raises up the lowly and casts the mighty down, 49 SONGS OF THE NATIVITY The judge cf.A ll the World it is because men cannot endure their condition.

  • Schurken Im Batman-Universum Dieser Artikel Beschäftigt Sich Mit Den Gegenspielern Der Comic­Figur „Batman“
    Schurken im Batman-Universum Dieser Artikel beschäftigt sich mit den Gegenspielern der Comic-Figur ¹Batmanª. Die einzelnen Figuren werden in alphabetischer Reihenfolge vorgestellt. Dieser Artikel konzentriert sich dabei auf die weniger bekannten Charaktere. Die bekannteren Batman-Antagonisten wie z.B. der Joker oder der Riddler, die als Ikonen der Popkultur Verankerung im kollektiven Gedächtnis gefunden haben, werden in jeweils eigenen Artikeln vorgestellt; in diesem Sammelartikel werden sie nur namentlich gelistet, und durch Links wird auf die jeweiligen Einzelartikel verwiesen. 1 Gegner Batmans im Laufe der Jahrzehnte Die Gesamtheit der (wiederkehrenden) Gegenspieler eines Comic-Helden wird im Fachjargon auch als sogenannte ¹Schurken-Galerieª bezeichnet. Batmans Schurkengalerie gilt gemeinhin als die bekannteste Riege von Antagonisten, die das Medium Comic dem Protagonisten einer Reihe entgegengestellt hat. Auffällig ist dabei zunächst die Vielgestaltigkeit von Batmans Gegenspielern. Unter diesen finden sich die berüchtigten ¹geisteskranken Kriminellenª einerseits, die in erster Linie mit der Figur assoziiert werden, darüber hinaus aber auch zahlreiche ¹konventionelleª Widersacher, die sehr realistisch und daher durchaus glaubhaft sind, wie etwa Straûenschläger, Jugendbanden, Drogenschieber oder Mafiosi. Abseits davon gibt es auch eine Reihe äuûerst unwahrscheinlicher Figuren, wie auûerirdische Welteroberer oder extradimensionale Zauberwesen, die mithin aber selten geworden sind. In den frühesten Batman-Geschichten der 1930er und 1940er Jahre bekam es der Held häufig mit verrückten Wissenschaftlern und Gangstern zu tun, die in ihrem Auftreten und Handeln den Flair der Mobster der Prohibitionszeit atmeten. Frühe wiederkehrende Gegenspieler waren Doctor Death, Professor Hugo Strange und der vampiristische Monk. Die Schurken der 1940er Jahre bilden den harten Kern von Batmans Schurkengalerie: die Figuren dieser Zeit waren vor allem durch die Abenteuer von Dick Tracy inspiriert, der es mit grotesk entstellten Bösewichten zu tun hatte.

    Bedlam in Mind: Seeing and Reading Historical Images of Madness Bedlam in Mind: Seeing and Reading Historical Images of Madness Simon Cross Department of Media and Cultural Studies Nottingham Trent University Clifton Lane Nottingham NG11 8NS NOTTINGHAM UK Email: [email protected] Fax: 0115 9418418 Dr Simon Cross is Senior Lecturer in Media and Cultural Studies at Nottingham Trent University. He is the author oi Mediating Madness: Mental Distress and Cultural Representation. Houndsmill: Palgrave Macmillan, 2010. 1 Bedlam in Mind: Seeing and Reading Historical Images of Madness Bedlam in Mind: Seeing and Reading Historical Images of Madness Abstract. In this article I explore mythical Bedlam of popular imaginings. London's Bethlem Hospital was for centuries a unique institution caring for the insane and its alter ego 'Bedlam' influenced popular stereotypes of insanity. For instance, while the type of vagrant beggar known as a 'Tom of Bedlam' was said to have disappeared from English society with the Restoration, the figure of Mad Tom retained a visual and vocal presence within popular musical culture from the seventeenth century up to the present era. Using the ballad 'Mad Tom o' Bedlam' as a case study, I illustrate how an early modern stereotype of madness has maintained continuity within a popular song tradition whilst undergoing cultural change. Keywords: Bethlem Hospital; Bedlam; historical image of madness; continuity and change in Bedlam stereotype; 'Mad Tom of Bedlam' (Bedlamite ballad) Introduction1 In the English-speaking world, the symbol of a segregative response to insanity has long been fixed on London's Bethlem Hospital, popularly known as Bedlam (Scull, 2006).

    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE SCHOOL OF MUSIC PRETTY OPHELIA: THE DESTRUCTIVE NATURE OF OBJECTIFICATION THROUGH MUSIC AND PROSE LEAH W. MUELLER Spring 2012 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in Music Education with honors in Music Reviewed and approved* by the following: Ted Christopher Assistant Professor of Music Thesis Supervisor Joanne Rutkowski Professor of Music Education Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College i ABSTRACT Shakespeare’s Ophelia has long fascinated composers, painters, poets, and scholars alike. She is at first beautiful and pure, but descends into utter madness filled with dark coded phrases that leave plenty of room for mystery and interpretation. In this thesis I investigated the lack of personal identity and tragic circumstances that lead to Ophelia’s demise. All who surround her, Hamlet, Polonius, Laertes, and even Shakespeare himself, constantly objectify her. The successive composers who have interpreted Ophelia diminish this objectification by giving her, her own voice. As part of this thesis project, a recital featuring the Brahms’ and Strauss Ophelia lieder as well as a performance of the original Shakespeare text was given on November 15th, 2011. The recital program, program notes, script, and video are included in this thesis. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT i TABLE OF CONTENTS ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS iii CHAPTER 1: OPHELIA IN PROSE Introduction 1 Ophelia and the Play 2 A Symbol of Purity 5 Ophelia Through the Feminist Gaze 8 CHAPTER 2: OPHELIA IN MUSIC Ophelia and the French 13 Ophelia and the Germans 16 CHAPTER 3: OPHELIA ONSTAGE Performance Planning 22 Rehearsing for the Performance 25 CHAPTER 4: SUMMARY, DISCUSSION, & CONCLUSION Summary 27 Discussion 28 Conclusion 29 BIBLIOGRAPHY 30 APPENDICES APPENDIX A: Performance Script 32 APPENDIX B: Recital Program 40 APPENDIX C: Recital Program Notes 42 APPENDIX D: Video of Performance Project 45 Academic Vita iii ACKNOWLEGMENTS I would like to thank Dr.
