    1/20/2021 Cartoon Saloon and the New Golden Age of Animation | The New Yorker The studio’s hand-drawn movies use the language of painting and illustration rather than that of the latest technology. Still courtesy Cartoon Saloon and Abrams Books Onward and Upward with the Arts December 21, 2020 Issue The studio’s hand-drawn movies—including its latest, “Wolfwalkers”—offer an alternative vision of what children’s entertainment can be. By Mark O’Connell December 11, 2020 n the seventeenth century, after wolves were hunted to extinction in most of the British Isles, Ireland was sometimes referred I to as Wolf-Land. The implication, perhaps, was that it needed to be tamed. In 1649, Oliver Cromwell’s New Model Army invaded Ireland on behalf of the Commonwealth of England, leading to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Irish people. The Army also appointed professional hunters to cull the country’s wolves. Cromwell’s men captured the walled city of Kilkenny, which was surrounded by forests full of wolves and was home to as many superstitions about them. One myth held that certain natives of https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2020/12/21/cartoon-saloon-and-the-new-golden-age-of-animation 1/9 1/20/2021 Cartoon Saloon and the New Golden Age of Animation | The New Yorker the region could transform into wolves, roaming the land while their ordinary bodies lay in a kind of trance.

  • Educational and Therapeutic Impact of Contemporary Animated Film Characters on the Viewer
    Konteksty Pedagogiczne 2(11)/2018, s. 151–163 DOI: 10.19265/KP.2018.211151 www.kontekstypedagogiczne.pl Joanna Mytnik [email protected] University of Bialystok ORCID iD: 0000-0003-3924-8188 Educational and therapeutic impact of contemporary animated film characters on the viewer Introduction From the beginning of its existence, films have been evoking interest and giving inspiration. A motion picture has been a tool for many practition- ers. Educators, psychologists, therapists, and animators have long appreci- ated and used film art in their work. Considering the increasing pervasion of the mass media into human life, its presence in many aspects of human functioning, it is necessary to pay close attention to the power of its influ- ence. It is worth noting that the products of popular culture do not only carry risks. Films created for commercial purposes also serve higher purposes, not just entertainment. Being easier in perception for the viewer at any age (through the frequency of contact with this cultural product), it can influence their emotions more strongly, encourage deeper mental work and stimulate reflection. In this article I would like to focus primarily on the possibilities of supporting upbringing and human development, referring to the assump- tions of film therapy (Kozubek, 2016). According to Depta, “the starting point of educational work with a film should be the use of such films that are most popular among young viewers while increasing their cognitive horizons” (Depta, 1983, p. 165). The potential of contemporary animated films seems to be indisputable in this respect, as will be demonstrated by the analysis of the main factor of their influence on the viewer, namely film heroes.
