The Quadrangle Times March 2020 Newsletter of the Quadrangle Residents Association Written and Produced by the Quadrangle Residents The Quadrangle Times March 2020 Newsletter of The Quadrangle Residents Association Written and Produced by The Quadrangle Residents LOVELIEST OF TREES . In A.E. Housman’s iconic poem, a Shropshire Lad regrets that he has only fifty years left “to look at things in bloom…[and] see the cherry hung with snow.” Unfortunately, most of us here don’t have that much time ahead of us. To make matters worse, we were recently reminded of life’s impermanence when the dozen trees that formed the beloved allée along the fire road were rudely cut down and chopped into untidy heaps of wood chips. How can this be? Despite Housman’s vision, it turns out that the lifespan of an ornamental cherry tree is between twenty and thirty years. Indeed, those of us who walk regularly along the allée (which extends from the pond up to the Building Three parking lot) had noticed that each successive storm left newly broken limbs strewn on the ground and splintered, truncated branches with fewer and fewer leaves. Then one day the landscapers who maintain our grounds whipped out their chainsaws and, in a single day, cut down all our beloved cherry trees. This was not a surprise—at least, not to the Landscape Committee, who gave their (however reluctant) consent. But like our pets, these trees had grown old and feeble long before we were ready to give them up. Residents and visitors came out to survey the devastation and pay their respects. John King, being both enterprising and forward thinking, rescued some wood from the chipper in the hope that, once cured, it could be used for residents’ future woodworking projects. But now there is light at the end of the allée. First came the twelve young replacement trees that were stacked alongside the glen, their roots bundled in burlap. Then, when conditions were right, the landscapers planted them between the remains of their predecessors. Finally, the old stumps were ground into mulch—which, in turn, will be used to replenish the soil and help other plants thrive. Because the flip side of having a short lifespan is that cherry trees grow fast and mature early, we can hope that within our stay here we will once again be able to see “the cherry…hung with bloom along the bough.” In the meantime, we can take delight in all the other lovely trees that grace our walks—watching them grow and change with the seasons and the years. In a single day, they cut down all the cherry trees. In a single day, they cut down all the cherry trees. RESIDENT WEBSITE GOES PRIVATE The Quadrangle’s resident website, QRAcentral.org, is now private. In other words, only residents can log onto the site. This means that all information on the website is accessible to residents only. Instructions for how to access the website have been emailed to those residents for whom the committee has addresses. The website currently contains the calendar of events, descriptions of the committees and activities, and other information of interest to residents. In the future more material will be available, including current and past issues of the Quadrangle Times, and the Residents Directory. QRAcentral does not replace any of the sources of information that currently exist (Ch 78, bulletin boards, the QT, and so forth). It merely offers residents another way to access this information. For example, you can now conveniently pull activities directly from the QRAcentral calendar into an electronic calendar, thus saving time and helping ensure that you don’t miss out on any programs or special events.

LIBRARY NEWS This month we offer some features of our Library beyond the shelves of books. The Card Catalog A visitor stepped into the Library recently and remarked, “A card catalog! How charming!” Apparently card catalogs carry with them a hint of the obsolete in this computerized world. But, despite the “Patron Search” option available on the computer, we still keep our card catalog up to date with each acquisition, thanks to our Library volunteers. They enter new additions to the Library on the computer, while at the same time printing two, and occasionally three, cards. Try browsing through the catalog some day; a world awaits you! Magazines A resident recently wrote that the magazines are not up to date. While we pay for the newspaper subscriptions (Philadelphia Inquirer, New York Times, and Wall Street Journal), all of our magazines are donated by residents.

    5 JUL 19 5 SEP 19 1 | 5 JUL 19 - 5 SEP 19 88 LOTHIAN ROAD | FILMHOUSECinema.COM FILMS WORTH TALKING ABOUT HOME OF THE EDINBURGH INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL Filmhouse, Summer 2019, Part II Luckily I referred to the last issue of this publication as the early summer double issue, which gives me the opportunity to call this one THE summer double issue, as once again we’ve been able to cram TWO MONTHS (July and August) of brilliant cinema into its pages. Honestly – and honesty about the films we show is one of the very cornerstones of what we do here at Filmhouse – should it become a decent summer weather-wise, please don’t let it put you off coming to the cinema, for that would be something of an, albeit minor in the grand scheme of things, travesty. Mind you, a quick look at the long-term forecast tells me you’re more likely to be in here hiding from the rain. Honestly…? No, I made that last bit up. I was at a world-renowned film festival on the south coast of France a few weeks back (where the weather was terrible!) seeing a great number of the films that will figure in our upcoming programmes. A good year at that festival invariably augurs well for a good year at this establishment and it’s safe to say 2019 was a very good year. Going some way to proving that statement right off the bat, one of my absolute favourites comes our way on 23 August, Pedro Almodóvar’s Pain and Glory which is simply 113 minutes of cinematic pleasure; and, for you, dear reader, I put myself through the utter bun-fight that was getting to see Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time..

Roberto Quina Mamani Date………………………………………... / 2020 i ABSTRACT This research aims to examine five government propaganda developed by the Ministry of Communication in July and August 2017 in Bolivia. The analysis is focused on Fairclough’s (1995) model of Critical Discourse Analysis, contending that there is a close link across text, discourse practice, and socio-cultural practice. It also employs Walton´s (1997) observation of Propaganda by using Discourse Analysis as a method which claims that propaganda is an art of persuasion and re-education of the audience, even of manipulating the social attitude encouraged by specific objectives. Likewise, the research analysis takes van Dijk´s (1998) ideological structures, which, according to him, are being developed to legitimate power or social inequality.
