  • The Dream of Morpheus: a Character Study of Narrative Power in Neil Gaiman’S the Sandman
    – Centre for Languages and Literatur e English Studies The Dream of Morpheus: A Character Study of Narrative Power in Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman Astrid Dock ENGK01 Degree project in English Literature Autumn Term 2018 Centre for Languages and Literature Lund University Supervisor: Kiki Lindell Abstract This essay is primarily focused on the ambiguity surrounding Morpheus’ death in Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman. There is a divide in the character that is not reconciled within the comic: whether or not Morpheus is in control of the events that shape his death. Shakespeare scholars who have examined the series will have Morpheus in complete control of the narrative because of the similarities he shares with the character of Prospero. Yet the opposite argument, that Morpheus is a prisoner of Gaiman’s narrative, is enabled when he is compared to Milton’s Satan. There is sufficient evidence to support both readings. However, there is far too little material reconciling these two opposite interpretations of Morpheus’ character. The aim of this essay is therefore to discuss these narrative themes concerning Morpheus. Rather than Shakespeare’s Prospero and Milton’s Satan serving metonymic relationships with Morpheus, they should be respectively viewed as foils to further the ambiguous characterisation of the protagonist. With this reading, Morpheus becomes a character simultaneously devoid of, and personified by, narrative power. ii Table of Contents Introduction ...........................................................................................................................

  • 1 Death Is All Things We See Awake
    | Juuso Tervo | Death is all things we see awake | | Presented at Skills of Economy sessions, Kiasma Museum of Contemporary Art, February 20 2016 | Death is all things we see awake; all we see asleep is sleep Juuso Tervo, Postdoctoral Researcher, Department of Art, Aalto University Presented in Kiasma at Skills of Economy Sessions, February 20, 2016 Abstract: This talk offers a collection of vignettes that position the relation between life and death as a central but unsolvable question for theorization in art and politics. Indeed, what to think of death in times when, yet again, the end of the world as we know it seems to be near? Introduction In his seminal essay “Necropolitics,” philosopher and political scientist Achille Mbembe writes, contemporary experiences of human destruction suggest that it is possible to develop a reading of politics, sovereignty, and the subject different from the one we inherited from the philosophical discourse of modernity. Instead of considering reason as the truth of the subject, we can look to other foundational categories that are less abstract and more tactile, such as life and death. (Mbembe, 2003, p. 14) In “Necropolitics,” Mbembe famously extends Michel Foucault’s thesis according to which modern sovereignty finds its basis in biopower, that is, that human life as such has become the primary domain for exercising productive power (“making live and letting die” [biopower] contra “letting live and making die” [authoritarian power in Roman law]). Mbembe argues that in addition to examining the various ways that biopower makes life, we should also pay attention how it manifests itself as a systematic destruction of human beings (as necropower) (for Mbembe, the history of colonies is the primary example of necropower as sovereignty.

  • MINIREVIEW Amphibian Metamorphosis As a Model For
    Cell Research (1998), 8, 259-272 MINIREVIEW Amphibian metamorphosis as a model for studying the developmental actions of thyroid hormone TATA JAMSHED R National Institute for Medical Research, The Ridgeway, Mill Hill, London NW7 1AA, U.K. Tel: +44-181-959 3666 Fax: +44-181-913 8583 E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT The thyroid hormones L-thyroxine and triiodo-L- thyronine have profound effects on postembryonic devel- opment of most vertebrates. Analysis of their action in mammals is vitiated by the exposure of the developing foetus to a number of maternal factors which do not allow one to specifically define the role of thyroid hormone (TH) or that of other hormones and factors that modulate its action. Amphibian metamorphosis is obligatorily depen- dent on TH which can initiate all the diverse physiological manifestations of this postembryonic developmental pro- cess (morphogenesis, cell death, re-structuring, etc.) in free-living embryos and larvae of most anurans. This arti- cle will first describe the salient features of metamorphosis and its control by TH and other hormones. Emphasis will be laid on the key role played by TH receptor (TR), in particular the phenomenon of TR gene autoinduction, in initiating the developmental action of TH. Finally, it will be argued that the findings on the control of amphibian metamorphosis enhance our understanding of the regula- tion of postembryonic development by TH in other verte- brate species. Key words: Thyroid hormone, metamorphosis, postembryonic development, thyroid hor- mone receptor, autoinduction. 259 Amphibian metamorphosis and thyroid hormone action INTRODUCTION Well before the chemical identification of L-thyroxine (T4) and 3, 3' 5-triiodo-L- thyronine (T3) as thyroid hormones, the secretions of thyroid gland were known to regulate growth and development in a variety of vertebrates[1, 2].
