  • The Pen and the Pennon: Political and Social Comment
    THE PEN AND THE PENNON: POLITICAL AND SOCIAL COMMENT INSCRIBED WITHIN CHIVALRIC ROMANCE A DISSERTATION IN English and History Presented to the Faculty of the University of Missouri-Kansas City in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by LARRY MICHAEL MCCLOUD B.A., Iowa State University, 1997 MLA, Baker University, 1999 Kansas City, Missouri 2016 © 2016 LARRY MICHAEL MCCLOUD ALL RIGHTS RESERVED THE PEN AND THE PENNON: POLITICAL AND SOCIAL COMMENT INSCRIBED WITHIN CHIVALRIC ROMANCE Larry Michael McCloud, Candidate for the Doctor of Philosophy Degree University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2016 ABSTRACT Study of the Medieval English romance has burgeoned in recent years, with a focus on the world outside of the texts being central to the resurgence. I offer in this dissertation a reading of four of these works (Athelston, Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, Sir Cleges, and Sir Gowther) that considers each of them in the environment in which they are presented. Utilizing the contexts of manuscript placement, contemporary social and legal issues, and sociological changes affecting the audience, this work explores an analytical reading of each work that establishes possible meanings for each romance and possible motivations for their unnamed authors. Each work is ascribed its own chapter, focusing on a particular issue of English knighthood being interrogated. Chapter three suggests that Sir Gawain and the Green Knight repurposes the character of Gawain to observe the importance of oath taking and the bonds formed by knights from the practice of such. Chapter four focuses on the message of Athelston and argues that the work repositions the power of the crown beneath iii that of a regularized judicial system in which knights function as jurists.

  • University Microfilms International T U T T L E , V Ir G in Ia G R a C E
    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material subm itted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again-beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy.

    • 35 YE 21 AR 0 S 2 BERKSHIRE JEWISH FILM FESTIVAL 2021 marks the 35th anniversary of the Berkshire Jewish Film Festival. The brainchild of Dr. Zev Raviv, the festival was led by Margie Metzger for 30 years. For the first 20 years, the films were shown on a 16mm projector at Knesset Israel in either the Sanctuary or the Social Hall. At the very beginning, a crowd of 25 was considered a success. Amy Abramovich helped run the concession where people could buy ice cream and other goodies. Because it was (and still is) a fundraiser for the Knesset Israel Hebrew School, it was important to involve the students, and each year a contest was held to design the program cover. The tide turned with the screening of the documenta- ry, The Life and Times of Hank Greenberg. There was stand- ing room only and it was then that public perception of the film festival changed. And the rest is history! Over these past 35 years, the BJFF has shown hundreds of films to thousands of people. Last year with the pan- demic forcing us to close the theater doors, we were able to continue as a virtual festival showing films online and engaging our audience members with Zoom talkbacks. This year we are celebrating with a full seven weeks of programming. Including the five short films being shown on August 9th, we are offering eighteen films in total. Our films range from political documentaries and biographies to comedies, heartfelt family stories, and animation. We couldn’t run this festival without our loyal volunteers.

    Rhetorics of Belonging Postcolonialism across the Disciplines 14 Bernard, Rhetorics of Belonging.indd 1 09/09/2013 11:17:03 Postcolonialism across the Disciplines Series Editors Graham Huggan, University of Leeds Andrew Thompson, University of Exeter Postcolonialism across the Disciplines showcases alternative directions for postcolonial studies. It is in part an attempt to counteract the dominance in colonial and postcolonial studies of one particular discipline – English literary/ cultural studies – and to make the case for a combination of disciplinary knowledges as the basis for contemporary postcolonial critique. Edited by leading scholars, the series aims to be a seminal contribution to the field, spanning the traditional range of disciplines represented in postcolonial studies but also those less acknowledged. It will also embrace new critical paradigms and examine the relationship between the transnational/cultural, the global and the postcolonial.

  • Hotel Rwanda, Reminds All of Us What One Person Can Accomplish When Moved to Act
    DEAR EDUCATOR, In 1994 almost one million people were killed in a systematic genocide in the central African country of Rwanda. As the world stood by, a handful of brave, resourceful and inspiring individuals did all they could to save Rwandans from brutal deaths. Paul Rusesabagina, whose story is portrayed in the powerful and hopeful film Hotel Rwanda, reminds all of us what one person can accomplish when moved to act. Hotel Rwanda addresses a horrific issue: genocide. This is a difficult and upsetting topic. Yet, as the film shows, while people and governments chose to ignore the 1994 Rwandan genocide, one individual bravely risked his life and stood up to the horror, calling upon all of his resources to first save his family, then ended up saving 1,268 helpless refugees. Terry George, Hotel Rwanda’s director, takes us on Paul’s journey, showing the country’s struggle and how the world turned a blind eye. He leads us in the end to a place of hope and promise. The enclosed teacher’s guide, a companion piece to the film, is produced by Amnesty International USA in cooperation with United Artists. This guide is intended for use by high school age students and can be used in the traditional classroom or a community setting. The purpose of this educator’s guide is to explore the history of the crisis and generate debate on strategies that could have been pursued to prevent the genocide. It is also a tool for analyzing what will be effective in the future as the international community confronts similar conditions.

  • GSC Films: S-Z
    GSC Films: S-Z Saboteur 1942 Alfred Hitchcock 3.0 Robert Cummings, Patricia Lane as not so charismatic love interest, Otto Kruger as rather dull villain (although something of prefigure of James Mason’s very suave villain in ‘NNW’), Norman Lloyd who makes impression as rather melancholy saboteur, especially when he is hanging by his sleeve in Statue of Liberty sequence. One of lesser Hitchcock products, done on loan out from Selznick for Universal. Suffers from lackluster cast (Cummings does not have acting weight to make us care for his character or to make us believe that he is going to all that trouble to find the real saboteur), and an often inconsistent story line that provides opportunity for interesting set pieces – the circus freaks, the high society fund-raising dance; and of course the final famous Statue of Liberty sequence (vertigo impression with the two characters perched high on the finger of the statue, the suspense generated by the slow tearing of the sleeve seam, and the scary fall when the sleeve tears off – Lloyd rotating slowly and screaming as he recedes from Cummings’ view). Many scenes are obviously done on the cheap – anything with the trucks, the home of Kruger, riding a taxi through New York. Some of the scenes are very flat – the kindly blind hermit (riff on the hermit in ‘Frankenstein?’), Kruger’s affection for his grandchild around the swimming pool in his Highway 395 ranch home, the meeting with the bad guys in the Soda City scene next to Hoover Dam. The encounter with the circus freaks (Siamese twins who don’t get along, the bearded lady whose beard is in curlers, the militaristic midget who wants to turn the couple in, etc.) is amusing and piquant (perhaps the scene was written by Dorothy Parker?), but it doesn’t seem to relate to anything.

  • A Review of Some Middle Eastern Movies Written by Melissa Fiameni March 17, 2015
    [tabgroup layout="vertical"] A review of some Middle Eastern Movies written by Melissa Fiameni March 17, 2015 Today’s post comes to you from our unofficial but very active and growing “Allegra Lab Italy”, and is a partial and preliminary exploration of Middle Eastern cinema. With special focus on gender issues and the Palestinian social suffering, Melissa Fiameni reviews the following movies: The Syrian Bride, Lemon Tree, Volla Touma, The Time That Remains, Miral, Salt of this Sea. La Sposa Siriana (The Syrian Bride) 1 of 14 [tabgroup layout="vertical"] Regia: Eran Riklis, Suha Arraf Interpreti: Hiam Abbass, Makram J. Khoury, Clara Khoury, Ashraf Barhoum, Eyad Sheety Durata: 93 minuti Produzione: Israele, Francia, Georgia 2004 Genere: drammatico Il film è il risultato di una ricerca, svolta nell’arco di tre anni dal regista e da Suha Arraf, sceneggiatrice israelo-palestinese, tra le alture del Golan, territorio di confine tra Siria e Israele. In queste zone vivono i drusi, minoranza di arabi musulmani che, a causa della vicinanza, si sentono più legati alla Siria, per etnia e religione. E’ stato definito un film politico, ma allo stesso tempo è attenuato da un sottile 2 of 14 [tabgroup layout="vertical"] velo di amara ironia; la sposa siriana del titolo è Mona, una giovane donna che abita in un villaggio sulle alture del Golan, occupate da Israele fin dal 1967, e promessa in moglie ad un lontano cugino, celebre attore televisivo, che vive in Siria. Sin dalle scene iniziali, si può avvertire il senso di rassegnazione che pervade la giovane sposa: Mona, infatti, è consapevole del fatto che, una volta varcato il confine, non potrà più tornare in Israele per poter far visita alla propria famiglia, perché ormai diventata una “nuova” siriana.
