Hannah Arendt and Hermann Broch’s “The Death of Virgil” In On Revolution (1963) Hannah Arendt heads one of her chapters with the three La- tin words inscribed on the Great Seal of the United States of America: novus ordo se- clorum, modified from magnus ab integro saeclorum nascitur ordo in line 5 of Virgil’s fourth Eclogue.1 The men of the American revolution, Arendt famously argued, suc- ceeded in founding the political community in a sovereign act of inaugural legislation that instituted a “new order of the centuries” between the “no-longer” of old Euro- pean political and religious precedent and the “not-yet” of salvation on earth for all. In contrast to the French revolution, which failed to distinguish political power from a pre-political natural violence of the multitude, the American statesmen discerned that a revolution carried its authority neither from belief in an immortal legislator nor from the promises of a future state of reward but rather from a pure act of the foun- ding and constituting of freedom itself. The Founding Fathers in this sense “solved the problem of the beginning, of an unconnected, new event breaking into the con- tinuous sequence of historical time”. In altering Virgil’s “the great cycle of periods is born anew” to the “new order of the ages”, the American revolutionaries felt

  • South Korean Cinema and the Conditions of Capitalist Individuation
    The Intimacy of Distance: South Korean Cinema and the Conditions of Capitalist Individuation By Jisung Catherine Kim A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Film and Media in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Kristen Whissel, Chair Professor Mark Sandberg Professor Elaine Kim Fall 2013 The Intimacy of Distance: South Korean Cinema and the Conditions of Capitalist Individuation © 2013 by Jisung Catherine Kim Abstract The Intimacy of Distance: South Korean Cinema and the Conditions of Capitalist Individuation by Jisung Catherine Kim Doctor of Philosophy in Film and Media University of California, Berkeley Professor Kristen Whissel, Chair In The Intimacy of Distance, I reconceive the historical experience of capitalism’s globalization through the vantage point of South Korean cinema. According to world leaders’ discursive construction of South Korea, South Korea is a site of “progress” that proves the superiority of the free market capitalist system for “developing” the so-called “Third World.” Challenging this contention, my dissertation demonstrates how recent South Korean cinema made between 1998 and the first decade of the twenty-first century rearticulates South Korea as a site of economic disaster, ongoing historical trauma and what I call impassible “transmodernity” (compulsory capitalist restructuring alongside, and in conflict with, deep-seated tradition). Made during the first years after the 1997 Asian Financial Crisis and the 2008 Global Financial Crisis, the films under consideration here visualize the various dystopian social and economic changes attendant upon epidemic capitalist restructuring: social alienation, familial fragmentation, and widening economic division.

  • THE LADY of the LAKE Andrzej Sapkowski
    THE LADY OF THE LAKE Andrzej Sapkowski http://en.thewitcher.com/forum/ They kept riding until they came to a large, beautiful lake full of crystal clear water, and in the middle of the lake, Arthur saw an arm clothed in white cloth holding a beautiful sword. ‘Behold, there is the sword of which I spoke,’ pointed Merlin. Suddenly they saw a girl walking on the surface of the lake. ‘Who is that girl?’ asked Arthur. ‘That is the Lady of the Lake,’ said Merlin. Sir Thomas Malory Le Morte Darthur Chapter One The lake was enchanted. About that there could be no doubt. Firstly: it lay beside the mouth of the enchanted valley Cwm Pwcca, the mysterious valley perpetually shrouded by fog and famed for its magical properties and phenomena. Secondly: one look was enough. The surface of the water was a deep blue like a polished sapphire and smooth as a mirror. So much so that the peaks of the mountain Y Wyddfa that were reflected in it were more beautiful than those that loomed over the lake. From the water blew a refreshing coolness and the dignified silence was disturbed by nothing, not even the splashing of fish or the cries of a bird. The knight shook off the impression. But rather than continue riding along the crest of the hill, he led his horse down to the lake. As if drawn by the magnetic force of a spell that slumbered there, deep down in the dark waters. The horse stepped timidly among the broken rocks, giving a snort indicating that he sensed the magical aura of the place.

  • ABSTRACT Britain and Russia: a Historical Comparison of Two Great
    ABSTRACT Britain and Russia: A Historical Comparison of Two Great Empires Sarah Cook Director: Julie deGraffenried, Ph.D. This work examines key elements of the British and Russian empires in order to present a new perspective on how much these two powers hold in common. Though radically different on the surface, Britain and Russia possess similar national characters and historical experiences. This work is not an attempt at a comprehensive record of the British and Russian empires and their similarities. Rather, it focuses on specific ideas – the two nations’ beginnings, their imperial ideologies, the Great Game in Central Asia, both nations’ modern identity crises – in order to prove greater similitude between Britain and Russia than has previously been discussed as part of the historical narrative. A variety of primary sources are used, though secondary sources make up a great deal of the evidence presented. This thesis is not chiefly a reinterpretation of sources, but a re- conceptualization of the information and interpretations already part of the historical narrative.

(1761-1850), the saintly Founder of the Society of Mary (Marianists) and the Daughters of Mary Immaculate, continues to speak eloquently and forcibly to his disciples through the telling words that he pronounced or wrote during his long life of eighty-nine years.

Like most religious founders, Father Chaminade “was not of an age but for all time.” His words and his directions have an utter timelessness.
