of Investigation. What particular element of Salt made it seem so threatening and subversive? According to film critic Pauline Kael Salt was nothing more than "shrewd propaganda for the urgent business of the USSR." (Kael, 331-332) She unhesitatingly asserts that Salt is "as clear a piece of communist propaganda as we have had in many years" (Kael 331-332). In short, Kael argues that Salt is fundamentally subversive, threatening and un-American. Yet what does it mean to be subversive in the context
posing as a soldier and kicked him out of the army where he then left for Paris with his new wife, first of four wives, Hadley Richardson. He had one child with her and named him Jack. He later divorced Hadley in 1927 and married his second wife Pauline Pfeiffer. He had two children, Patrick and Gregory. During the second marriage, his father committed suicide and this lead Hermingway to become much more depressed. He cheated on his second wife and divorced her marrying Martha Gellhorn. Martha spent
Tolerance is the willingness to listen to many voices, making intolerance the insistence on listening to one voice. This intolerance is predominantly shown based on hierarchal power and religious supremacy. “The Song of the Cid” back these claims of vocal intolerance with the King Alfonso VI’s exile and further interactions with the Cid showing the intolerance he has for his subordinates, the view of Christian supremacy projected by El Cid’s men, and El Cid’s dominance of those of other faiths as
Hemingway's separation from Pauline and divorce from Hadley had on "Hills like White Elephants." Before authoring "Hills like White Elephants," Hemingway had been residing in Paris with his wife Hadley and son, Bumby. During their stay in Paris, Hadley and Ernest Hemingway met a woman named Pauline Pfeiffer. Pauline was more of a friend to Hadley than Hemingway was. Pauline did not think much of Hemingway at first, she thought he was lazy and a no-doer. Later Pauline and Hemingway fell in love
Often skimmed over, is the story of Paul casting out a spirit from an unnamed slave-girl found in Acts 16. When read using a feminist lens, the seemingly minor text reveals unique power differentials between the girl and the other characters. Every character in the story exploits and uses the girl for a specific purpose, which illuminates the power differentials. The spirit of divination uses her body to speak through, the apostle Paul uses her by casting out her spirit so satisfy his needs, the
affairs, alcohol, and hardship. Many of these experiences Hemmingway has faced, have set the foundation for some of his greatest works. This paper will examine the impact that Hemmingway’s first born child, his alcohol addiction and his separation from Pauline had on the popular short story of Hills like White Elephants. Before writing Hills like White Elephants Hemingway had been married to his first wife Hadley Richardson. In 1921, the couple moved to Paris were two years later Hemingway began to make
The book of Romans is the book doctrinal written by the Apostle Paul. This book is also a book is unique because it was written and sent without Paul never went to Rome or find churches in Rome. Epistle to the Romans is not to doubt, because in Romans is the basis of the Gospel which is the theme of this book. Therefore it needs to be emphasized that this letter is so important. In these letters Paul provides the most complete statement of the doctrine in the New Testament. If want to know the
The polemical Epistle to the Galatians has some of the most explosive and harsh rhetoric in all Pauline epistles. Paul’s writing clearly indicates that he is troubled by the situation in Galatia. Along with the other Pauline epistles, with the possible exception of Romans (Goodacre, 2016b), Paul’s Letter to the Galatians is occasional. That is, Paul is responding to specific problems within the Galatian community (Goodacre, 2016a). The actual occasion of Galatians is as follows: Paul is writing to
“And you will be my witnesses, telling people about me everywhere – in Jerusalem, throughout Judea, in Samaria, and to the ends of the earth” (Acts 1:8). This statement, spoken by Jesus at the beginning of the book of Acts is indicative of what was to follow. Indeed the Acts of the Apostles, believed to be penned by Luke the Evangelist, documented the beginning of the Christian religion and its dispersion out from Jerusalem (). But when it came to bringing the message out of Jerusalem and to the
pertaining to Pauline Research and to provide some possible implications from their outcomes. The new perspectives on Paul can be rather confusing for the general layperson, so it is the goal of this paper to clarify and explain these new positions in contrast to the prevalent and classically held orthodox view that contains many doctrines that the church has stood upon for years. The term, “New Perspective on Paul,” was a coined phrase used in 1982 by James Dunn that named the ongoing Pauline Research
parts: thanksgiving, petitions, and praise. Authorship, Date, and Purpose The text names Apostle Paul as the author (Eph. 1:1). Although the text is clear, some scholars have questioned Pauline authorship; however, these claims are insufficient in comparison to the claims of the text and the general acceptance of Pauline
Paul, the Motherly Paterfamilias Introduction In Paul's time the role of paterfamilias in Roman households—as well as in general society—was that of an authoritarian ruler with absolute control over all people in his realm. In his letters to the congregations that he had founded and towards which he felt paternal affection, the apostle Paul transcended this dominating relationship by expressing deep emotions of longing and affection. He also nurtured them by sharing his life with them and
Rolfing Rolfing is a scientific and organized system of manipulating the muscles in the body to their correct positions. Rolfing is a controlled approach within the general field of structural integration. Rolfing was originally called "structural integration." Some people still use the words, structural integration, instead of Rolfing (www.smart.net/~astro/define.html). Developed by Ida P. Rolf, Ph.D., this practice includes the process of teaching the body how to move by manipulating the
authenticity of authorship of 2 Thessalonians. Many scholars believe that 2 Thessalonians is a pseudepigrapha. However, its acceptance into the canon, the eschatological theme, and its similarity in context to 1 Thessalonians supports authenticity of the Pauline authorship. 2 Thessalonians’ installation in the Marcion’s canon and the Muratorian canon confirms its authenticity because this shows that it was fully accepted as a work of Paul as early as c.150. In order for a book to be considered as an authoritative
Pauline Kael has made her mark as one of the most influential women and the most famous film critic in history. Kael’s extreme passion for film began at a very young age and after she was published for the first time in 1953, she became a low-paid critic for unknown, to most of the public, film magazines. As a long-time New Yorker critic since she was forty-eight, she used writing and her independent, honest, and sassy voice to shed light on films that don’t meet the film criteria norms. Unlike
If Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick is akin to a bel canto diva, moving her voice in ornate, wispy, origami shapes with very little forcefulness--without, in keeping with the classic test of bel canto mastery, "bending the flame" (which could account for the "thinness" my professor once complained of as we discussed Sedgwick's buoyantly clever and even hallucinatory "Jane Austen and the Masturbating Girl," a psychotic triumph that proves you can read your own erotomania between the lines of a text and "get
the film was taken directly from Flaubert... ... middle of paper ... ...ot literature" (Kael 407). This remark might aptly be applied to Chabrol's adaptation of Madame Bovary. She also remarks about Chabrol's work in general that "there is a remarkable consistency of tone; everything seems on the same level of interest to Chabrol....nothing is very exciting, just as nothing is boring" (407). To Kael, Chabrol is "a sublime craftsman, the ideal conventional movie maker" (54). But, in
The Critical History of Singin’ in the Rain The 1952 original musical, Singin’ in the Rain is one of the most treasured musical films ever made. This heartwarming, hysterical, and enjoyable movie illustrates the challenging shift from silent pictures to speaking films. Singin’ in the Rain was created in a way that gives the viewer a surprisingly accurate glimpse into the history of this period of cinematic evolution. This is all done while providing non-stop entertainment for the audience. The

“Tragedy… is an imitation of an action that is serious, complete, and of a certain magnitude; in language embellished with each kind of artistic ornament, the several kinds being found in separate parts of the play; in the form of action, not of narrative; with incidents arousing pity and fear, wherewith to accomplish its katharsis of such emotions...” (Poetics, P.10) Aristotle was a great admirer of Sophocles’ Oedipus the King, considering it the perfect tragedy, and not surprisingly, his analysis
