    Episode 26 – “BIG BATTLE LADY” Release Date: July 9, 2018 Running Time: 1 hour, 2 minutes SALLY: I can’t believe we didn’t open this episode with “Are you ready to climax?” [laughs] EMILY: I’ll just edit that in the beginning SALLY: [laughs louder] [THEME SONG – “Tubthumping” by Chumbawamba plays, chorus] EMILY: I was about to say, “Let’s make this short,” but let’s be honest SALLY: We can’t! EMILY: We won’t make this short. And also because it’s the climax, and I know it’s only three chapters, and they’re short chapters SALLY: But some shit goes down EMILY: Yeah, shit gets cosmic and weird SALLY: I was thinking about that, too. We can talk about that. It moves from the fantasy level into a divine and mythical level EMILY: Yeah, which is kind of the point of – honestly I read this and I was like, “I feel like I can’t understand the significance of this unless I am fully cognizant of what happens at the end of the series” SALLY: Yeah, which is something EMILY: Yeah, because I was like, “There has to be some significance in what is going on here, and I just needed to review,” so I basically just read the Wikipedia chapter by chapter summary of the last few chapters of A Memory of Light. And basically that entire book is, like, theological and cosmic on a whole other level, and I don’t know if that’s good or bad. I guess we’ll talk about it when we get there in… seven years? SALLY: Yeah, if we are doing one book every six months, it will be seven years EMILY: It will probably be more than that because Book 1 is one of the shortest SALLY: Oh yeah! When we get to Book 6, which I just finished, which is literally almost a thousand pages EMILY: You think at some point we’ll run out of things to talk about.

    JAPANESE HAIKU SECOND SERIES ; . *. m $ ( 1 / • i I due roan seasons JAPANESE HAIKU WRITTEN BY BASHO•BUSON ISSA • SHIKI • AND MANY OTHERS TRANSLATION BY PETER BEILENSON THE PETER PAUPER PRESS MOUNT VERNON • NEW YORK COPYRIGHT »958 © BY THE PETER PAUPER PRESS i A NOTE ON JAPANESE HAIKU The haiku is a seventeen-syllable poetic form that has been written in Japan for three hun­ dred years. It has been enormously popular with­ out becoming banal. For the haiku does not make a complete poem in our usual sense; it is a lightly- sketched picture the reader is expected to fill in from his own memories. Often there are two pic­ tures, and the reader is expected to respond with heightened awareness of the mystical relationship between non-related subjects. This mystical awareness is one of the seekings of Zen Buddhism, and was introduced into haiku by the first, best-loved, greatest master of the form, Basho (1644-1694). A second master was Buson (1715-1783), a poet less interested in mystical re­ lationships than in exquisite vignettes. A third was Issa (1763-1827), pathetic, wryly humorous, ut­ terly individual. A fourth was Shiki (1866-1902) — a modern Buson who gives us perfectly-phrased glimpses of everyday scenes and situations. Almost every haiku holds a season key-word; often the name of the season itself, otherwise a seasonal reference easily understood. The reader must take this key-word not as a statement, but as the author’s cue to him, so that he can call up 3 in himself his own associations and nostalgias, and read the little poem against this background.

  • Tanja Zimmermann (Ed.) Balkan Memories Media Constructions of National and Transnational History
    From: Tanja Zimmermann (ed.) Balkan Memories Media Constructions of National and Transnational History September 2012, 270 p., 33,80 €, ISBN 978-3-8376-1712-2 This book gives an insight into the media constructions of historical remembrance reflecting transnational, national or nationalistic forms of politics. Authors from post-Yugoslavia and neighbouring countries focus on the diverse transnational (such as Austro-Hungarian, Yugoslav etc.) and na- tional (such as Bosnian, Croatian, Serbian etc.) memory cultures in South- Eastern Europe, their interference and rivalry. They examine constructions of memory in different media from the 19th century to recent wars. These include longue durée images, breaks and gaps, selection and suppression, traumatic events and the loss of memory, nostalgia, false memory, reactiva- tion, rituals and traces of memory. Tanja Zimmermann (Junior Professor; PhD in art history and Slavic studies) teaches East-European literature and art history at the University of Constance (Germany).
