Libya expressed "astonishment and displeasure" at the British order, announced yesterday, and declared it "holds the British government responsible for this decision and its consequences."

  • Invasion of the Body Snatchers Kathleen Loock
    6 The Return of the Pod People: Remaking Cultural Anxieties in Invasion of the Body Snatchers Kathleen Loock Don Siegel’s Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956), based on a novel by Jack Finney, has become one of the most influential alien invasion films of all time. The film’s theme of alien paranoia—the fear that some invis- ible invaders could replace individual human beings and turn them into a collective of emotionless pod people—resonated with widespread anxieties in 1950s American culture. It has been read as an allegory of the communist threat during the Cold War but also as a commen- tary on McCarthyism, the alienating effects of capitalism, conformism, postwar radiation anxiety, the return of “brainwashed” soldiers from the Korean War, and masculine fears of “the potential social, politi- cal, and personal disenfranchisement of postwar America’s hegemonic white patriarchy” (Mann 49). 1 Engaging with the profound concerns of its time, Invasion of the Body Snatchers is widely regarded as a signature film of the 1950s. Yet despite its cultural and historical specificity, the narrative of alien-induced dehumanization has lent itself to reinterpretations and re-imaginations like few others, always shifting with the zeitgeist and replacing former cultural anxieties with more contemporary and urgent ones. Siegel’s film has inspired three cinematic remakes over the last 55 years: Philip Kaufman’s Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978), Abel Ferrara’s Body Snatchers (1993), and, most recently, Oliver Hirschbiegel’s The Invasion (2007). Bits and pieces of the film have also found their way into the American popular imagination, taking the form of intermedial refer- ences to Invasion of the Body Snatchers in movies, television series, car- toons, and video games.

Düşünüp/akledip/idrak edip/ kavrayıp/ anlayıp ibret-öğüt alasınız diye her şeyden çift çift*(*eş-zıt: erkek-kadın, yer-gök, iyi-kötü, gece- gündüz, artı-eksi, beden-ruh, madde-mana, iman-inkâr, hak-batıl, hayat-ölüm, dünya-ahiret...) yarattık.” Kur'an-ı Kerim, Zâriyât Sûresi 47-49. Ayetler Herşeyin metalaşarak aslını ve anlamını yitirdiği teknoloji çağında, insanın “oku” ilk ilahi emri gereğince yaratılış ve maneviyatının farkına vararak hakikati kavraması ve ona yönelmesi önemli ve vazgeçilmez bir gerçek olarak belirmiş bulunmaktadır. Hayatı, alemi ve insanı görüntü diliyle okuma çabasının bir ürünü olarak ortaya çıkan sinema sanatının, insanın maneviyatı keşfetmesinde ve hakikate yönelmesinde, yaratılışa ve varoluşa uygun bir şekilde icra edilmesi büyük önem arz etmektedir. Bu gereklilikle bilimkurgu türünde kadın karakterlerin incelendiği tezde, türde yoğun olarak yapay ve insan dışı tasvirlerle metalaştırılarak sömürü nesnesine dönüştürülen kadının yaratılışa uygun rollerinin tespit edilerek filmsel analizlerde daha manevi temsillerinin açığa çıkarılması amaçlanmıştır. Bilimkurguya ilgi duymam, Müslüman kadın karakterli bilimkurgu filmleri (Devlet Ana, Son Kadın) tasarlamam ve film karakterlerinin hakikat, maneviyat ve mahremiyete uygun canlandırılması gerekliliğini önemsemem bu konunun seçilmesinde etkili olmuştur. Tez çalışmasının görünür hale gelmesinde en başta değerli Ailem, Hocalarım, Akrabalarım ve Arkadaşlarım olmak üzere birçok insanın emeği, fedakârlığı, özverisi, duası, yardımı, ilhamı, tavsiyesi, desteği ve katkısı bulunmaktadır.
