Wisse Kelly Scott Johnson Sholem Schwarzbard: Biography of a Jewish Assassin Abstract The thesis represents the first complete academic biography of a Jewish clockmaker, warrior poet and Anarchist named Sholem Schwarzbard. Schwarzbard's experience was both typical and unique for a Jewish man of his era. It included four immigrations, two revolutions, numerous pogroms, a world war and, far less commonly, an assassination. The latter gained him fleeting international fame in 1926, when he killed the Ukrainian nationalist leader Symon Petliura in Paris in retribution for pogroms perpetrated during the Russian Civil War (1917-20). After a contentious trial, a French jury was sufficiently convinced both of Schwarzbard's sincerity as an avenger, and of Petliura's responsibility for the actions of his armies, to acquit him on all counts. Mostly forgotten by the rest of the world, the assassin has remained a divisive figure in Jewish-Ukrainian relations, leading to distorted and reductive descriptions his life.

This is his 6th year programming NaFF, after joining the festival in Summer, 2008. The Nashville Film Festival has become one of the premier showcases for the best new work of American and international filmmakers. The festival screens films that represent the creative risk filmmakers take to tell powerful and important stories in innovative ways. Owens programmed Opening Day with Nashville in mind. These are films made in or near the city, by a Tennessee filmmaker, or by a filmmaker well-loved by the NaFF festival audience. Opening Day Selections: The Identical | Director: Dustin Marcellino. USA. 88 minutes. Starring: Blake Rayne, Ashley Judd, Ray Liotta, Seth Green, Joe Pantoliano, Amanda Crew, Brian Geraghty The Identical is the story of a young couple, who give birth to identical twin boys in the depths of the Great Depression.

  • Machines in the Garden
    2 Machines in the Garden Jessica Riskin What does it mean to be alive and conscious: an aware, thinking creature? Using lifelike machines to discuss animation and consciousness is a major cultural preoc- cupation of the early twenty-first century; but few realize that this practice stretches back to the middle of the seventeenth century, and that actual lifelike machines, which peopled the landscape of late Medieval and Early Modern Europe, shaped this philosophical tradition from its inception. By the early 1630s, when René Des- cartes argued that animals and humans, apart from their capacity to reason, were automata, European towns and villages were positively humming with mechanical vitality, and mechanical images of living creatures had been ubiquitous for several centuries. Descartes and other seventeenth-century mechanists were therefore able to invoke a plethora of animal- and human-like machines. These machines fell into two main categories: the great many devices to be found in churches and cathedrals, and the automatic hydraulic amusements on the grounds of palaces and wealthy estates. Neither category of contraptions signified, in the first instance, what machine metaphors for living creatures later came to signify: passivity, rigidity, regularity, constraint, rote behavior, soullessness. Rather, the machines that informed the emergence of the Early Modern notion of the human-machine held a strikingly unfamiliar array of cultural and philosophical implications, notably the ten- dencies to act unexpectedly, playfully, willfully, surprisingly, and responsively. Moreover, neither the idea nor the ubiquitous images of human-machinery ran counter to Christian practice or doctrine. Quite the contrary: not only did automata appear first and most commonly in churches and cathedrals, the idea as well as the technology of human-machinery was indigenously Catholic.

  • Boyhood, Abuse, and Adult Intervention in the 400 Blows (Truffaut 1959), Small Change (Truffaut 1976), and Pellet (Mañas 2000) by Erin Hogan
    Boyhood, Abuse, and Adult Intervention in The 400 Blows (Truffaut 1959), Small Change (Truffaut 1976), and Pellet (Mañas 2000) by Erin Hogan As dudes and daredevils and delinquents, as masturbators and mamma‘s boys and masqueraders, as homophobic and homophilic, as paragons of Englishness and Frenchness, Japaneseness, Chineseness, Jewishness, or Hindiness, as truant and traumatized, as colonized, exploited, feminized, and confounded, boys have populated our screens, and screens around the world, as icons of movement, potentiality, desire, achievement, and never-ending progress. (Pomerance and Gateward 9) Introduction French and Spanish cinema contribute to the myriad trends and common themes across the globe, enumerated above, in the depiction of boys. Murray Pomerance‘s and Frances Gateward‘s descriptors for delinquent, traumatized, and assaulted youth pertain most directly to the current article‘s focus on the protagonists of select films of French director François Truffaut and Spanish filmmaker Achero Mañas. The French New Wave classic The 400 Blows (Les quatre cents coups 1959) has been influential in establishing and inspiring a certain portrayal of young men in the cinematic imaginary. The year of The 400 Blows‘ release sheds further light on the film‘s focus on childhood, given its coincidence with the United Nations‘ adoption of the Declaration of the Rights of the Child and a concentration of boyhood films through the following decade. The Spanish director‘s reinterpretation of The 400 Blows forty years later shows how pervasive the French film‘s impact has been. Truffaut‘s The 400 Blows and later film Small Change (L’argent de poche 1976) and Mañas‘s Pellet (El Bola 2000) participate in common portrayals of the impressionability and the malleability of youth to expose their susceptibility to risk.
