The popularity of the light comedy during the late era of Kim Jong-il

AbstractThis paper examines the political and cultural context of the popular 2010 revival of the light comedy theatre productionSanullimin North Korea. The play, originally written and performed in 1961, portrays the spirit of revolutionary optimism as the characters resolve an unhostile conflict and unite to expand socialist production to contribute to overcoming the (real-life) political and economic crisis of the Chollima era. The 2010 revival of this propaganda responded to similar political and economic crisis, and was designed to instil confidence that the present crisis would be overcome as successfully as in the first Chollima era, provided that people could conjure the same revolutionary optimism. This paper examines why this particular play was revived over others from the Kim Il-sung era, and its particular potential to serve as effective propaganda during the transition from military-first to party-first policy in the Kim Jong-un era, in reference to parallels between 1961 and 2010. The play immerses the audience in the dramatic situations through verisimilitude to the lives of the audience, though the emotional excess of the characters is often exaggerated. Such laughter ignited by dramatic irony contributed to creating a heightened ideological thought of the audience who would spontaneously (re-)internalise the communist human character. The revival of the play was the most appropriate choice according to the object of justification of the succession of power from Kim Jung-il to Kim Jung-un.

Dreaming of Serpents and Asses: Shakespeare’s Ovidian Animal Dreams in A Midsummer Night’s Dream

ABSTRACT This article investigates Shakespeare’s use of animal dreams – dreams of or by animals – in A Midsummer Night’s Dream. It argues that the Ovidian model of human-animal transformation, in which animal states and animal imagery describe, amplify, or symbolise aspects of human character, is fundamental to understanding Shakespeare’s use of animal dreams in this play. The article further contends that Shakespeare in A Midsummer Night’s Dream successfully adapted Ovidian animal symbolism for early modern culture by filtering it through religious and demonological references. The article falls into four parts. Firstly, it investigates the representation of animals, dreams, and animal dreams in classical culture and particularly in Ovid’s Metamorphoses. The article then goes on to investigate Hermia’s dream of a serpent in A Midsummer Night’s Dream, combining close reading with examinations of early modern dream books and with cultural historical insights into the representation of serpents in Christian iconography. Then, the article proceeds to a discussion of Bottom’s oneiric transformation into an ass, drawing on classical source texts, demonological treatises, and early modern animal symbolism. The article concludes with a (re-) consideration of the dramatic functions of Shakespeare’s Ovidian animal dreams in the context of the moral and aesthetic imperatives of Renaissance culture.

De l'origine du chien et de sa diffusion à l'aune de sa mythologie

From the origin of the dog and its diffusion to the light of its mythology. Using phylogenetic tools, it is possible to reconstruct how myths about dogs spread around the world, as well as their probable point of origin. The tree built from mythological motifs associated with dogs takes root between Central and East Asia. It shows two diffusions of these motifs in America, the second only affecting the northern part of the continent. The mythological motifs seem to have followed the same diffusion routes as dogs, which corroborates the findings of genetics and archaeology. Furthermore, the phylogenetic approach makes it possible to identify the first mythological tales related to dogs: “A man marries a female dog”; “1/The dog is the master, the guard or the guide to the land of death or 2/Dogs live on the road leading to the land of death”; “The creatures have both human and canine characters, most often a man's body with a dog's head”; “Dogs or men with dog heads are married to human women” and “Sirius is associated with a dog or a wolf”. These reconstructions, also associated with wolves in the area of origin considered, make it possible to explain various archaeological remains with a high degree of probability.

Occupational Identity and Humanistic Care Among Interns and Clinical Nurses

This study investigated humanistic care ability and occupational identity among interns and clinical nurses at a prestigious Grade A public hospital in Guangxi, China, to analyze influencing factors and their relationship. Employing an online questionnaire covering personal details, humanistic care ability, and occupational identity assessments, the research utilized descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, and Stepwise multiple regression analysis to comprehend the current status and identify influencing factors. Findings revealed moderate levels of humanistic care ability and occupational identity among interns, while clinical nurses exhibited relatively higher levels. Correlation analysis indicated a positive relationship between occupational identity and humanistic care ability for both groups, suggesting stronger humanistic care ability with higher occupational identity. Regression analysis identified several influencing factors. For interns, these included autonomy in career choice, social comparison, self-reflection, work beliefs, relationships with teachers and classmates, acceptance of humanistic care education, salary level, differences between undergraduate and specialty teaching areas, and age. Notably, salary level, differences between undergraduate and specialty teaching areas, and age were negatively correlated. For nurses, factors influencing humanistic care quality included occupational cognitive evaluation, childbirth, occupational social support, hospital humanistic care, and salary level, with childbirth and salary level showing negative correlations. These findings offer valuable insights for nursing educators and hospital managers to devise training and management strategies for interns and clinical nurses. Enhancing the quality of nursing humanistic services, fostering team stability, and contributing to patient safety and medical services are key objectives stemming from this study.

Social Influence and the Normalization of Surveillance Capitalism: Legislation for the Next Generation

Human personalities, characters, and habits are socially instructed and learned, traditionally from others, but also with others <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref1" xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">[1]</xref> .

According to Piaget’s stages of cognitive development, in the preoperational stage, the primary sources of such influence are parents, teachers, and siblings, and in subsequent stages, both peers and socially constructed knowledge gatekeepers (i.e., schools and newspapers) become increasingly important. In the preoperational stage, infants demonstrate animism, that is, they tend to assign life and feeling to nonliving things. Consequently, they can believe that “The Internet” is a real person and, being equally unable to differentiate between advertising and other media content, believe what “it” is telling them.

The Picture of Privilege: Examining the Lack of Diverse Characters in 2018 Australian Children’s Picture Books

This article explores the findings from the first “diversity count” of Australian children’s picture books, conducted in 2019 in partnership with advocacy group Voices from the Intersection (VFTI). Specifically, this article explores the eighty-three percent of 2018 Australian children’s picture books that did not feature a marginalized protagonist: namely, those that featured human characters who could not be identified as marginalized in any way, animals, and inhuman protagonists. We propose that the Australian publishing industry, rather than suffering from a “diversity deficit,” instead overrepresents a narrow demographic of human experiences and non-human protagonists. We suggest that the oversaturation of the local children’s picture book market with such similar stories disadvantages all children, who are denied a rich and diverse reading experience, as well as the opportunity to see themselves and their peers depicted. This article provides greater insight into the current debates about diversity and inclusion in children’s media.

Romanticism and Probability in Newman and George Eliot

Romanticism and Probability in Newman and George Eliot Dwight A. Lindley III (bio) For a variety of reasons, the last three centuries of intellectual culture have seen a rise in the status of imaginative, or poetic, understanding. In the eighteenth century, this change could be felt in the way history was being narrated. "Poetry," wrote J. G. Hamann in 1762, "is the mother-tongue of the human race, as the garden is older than the plowed field; painting, than writing; song, than declamation; parables, than logical deduction; barter, than commerce."1 The German thinker Hamann was echoing, unconsciously for all we know,2 a thought voiced two decades earlier by the Italian philosopher, Giambattista Vico, that poetry, in the order of experience, comes before philosophy. "As much as the poets had first sensed in the way of vulgar wisdom," wrote Vico in 1744, "the philosophers later understood in the way of esoteric wisdom; so that the former may be said to have been the sense and the latter the intellect of the human race."3 This "sense" of things available to the poet, and to people in general through poetic thinking, came more and more to the fore in the nineteenth century, as various Romantic movements arose throughout Europe. For the German Friedrich Schlegel, and the English William Wordsworth, among many others, the way of imagination afforded a kind of primitive insight into human life, and things in general, that the way of reason did not have access to.4 Alongside the Romantic turn to nature lay an equally earnest Romantic turn to imaginative, or poetic, thinking. [End Page 5] Over the course of the nineteenth century, one broad result of the Romantic shift toward imagination was a general rise in narrative thought. Many of the most important works of the century, especially in the Anglosphere, took the form of novels, histories, or personal narratives,5 the thought being that these could disclose something more basic and essential than a treatise could. In 1864 John Henry Newman wrote his autobiographical Apologia Pro Vita Sua, for example, to "give the true key to my whole life," by drawing out "as far as may be, the history of my mind."6 It will perhaps be obvious that a novelist such as George Eliot wished to unveil the soul of life in similar ways in her many fictional works.7 What is less understood is that Newman, even in his more theoretical works on epistemology and doctrinal development, followed a broadly narrative, dramatic framework of thought that is, I argue, more Romantic and imaginative than might at first appear.8 Reading Newman alongside Eliot, one of the two greatest novelists of his day, will actually illuminate that narrative, dramatic structure in fascinating ways. I propose to draw out his lines of convergence with Eliot, uncovering their shared mode of literary intelligence: they have in common a broadly Aristotelian conception of character, plot, and ethical probability. Putting the two together brings out elements of a common project we have not usually noticed or appreciated and suggests what is most unique and helpful in the contribution of each author. The connection between Newman and Eliot is in some ways present on the surface and is expressed in some shared terminology. They both frequently use the language of probability in relation to the practical judgments of life, a language with an Aristotelian theoretical framework beneath it. To get an idea of the way the theory works, it will be helpful to look first at a circle of concepts in Aristotle himself, then at the way they come out in Eliot and Newman. [End Page 6] ARISTOTELIAN CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK The relevant ideas in Aristotle come from his ethical, or "human," works,9 and have to do with the consistency and knowability of human character. One's character, or êthos, for Aristotle, is a kind of second nature developed by means of habit: habitual ways of acting and choosing come together to give one a semi-solid, predictable personality that can be known with some confidence.10 The kind of knowledge we can have of someone's character is probabilistic: he or she is likely (eikos) to...

Westworld and overcoming of traditional gender dualisms: Is feminism really for everybody or just for female androids?

The focus of this article is the science fiction series Westworld (2016, 2018, 2020), inspired by the film of the same name from 1973 (Crichton). In the modern version of Westworld, the dominant characters are Dolores and Maeve, female androids, and the narrative is centred on their awakening and emancipation. The feminist turn may positively indicate the transformations that occurred in the society of the spectacle. Back in 1973, gender-based stereotyping of women was still a firm division point between acceptable female roles of a good and obedient daughter, a faithful wife or a self-sacrificing mother and unacceptable roles of sexually promiscuous rebels and prostitutes. However, Dolores is both a good daughter and a rebel/killer, and Maeve is a prostitute and a self-sacrificing mother. These roles are not evaluated, which suggests that the series overcome the traditional gender dualisms. Unlike female androids, such a change is not visible in the characterization of other female or male human characters. Analysis of the Westworld series is presented through radical feminist lenses and questions whether Westworld’s feminism is really for everybody.

CORRUPTION: NOT A TABOO FOR INDONESIANS?

The problem of corruption has never been separated from human life from ancient times until now. Corruption is a social disease that will cause an opium effect for the perpetrators. In addition to harming the country, corruption is also self-defeating because if someone is already entangled in corrupt behavior, he will continue to do so until one day his actions are known to the authorities. The author wants to open people's minds about corruption and corrupt behavior so that it is hoped that it will make readers aware that corruption is not a behavior that should be proud of. Data shows that corruption cases in Indonesia are dominantly increasing every year and this is not good news. The data also shows that from 2004-2018 only a handful of corruption cases in Indonesia were able to reach the courts, this means that the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) seems overwhelmed in handling these cases. Apart from repressive measures, preventive measures such as early anti-corruption education must also be taken to break this vicious circle. This work is using normative juridical method through a rule of law, case, and conceptual approach.&#x0D; &#x0D; Keywords: Corruption, Law, Human Character, Corruptive Behavior, Indonesia.

Sisters Are Doing It for Each Other

Shakespeare’s play, The Taming of the Shrew, has faced harsh criticism for its sexist portrayal of women and depictions of abuse. Yet, modern adaptations of the play continue to be produced. Gil Junger’s 1999 teen romantic comedy adaptation of The Taming of the Shrew, titled 10 Things I Hate About You, appears to challenge the play’s problematic themes by developing the relationship between sisters Katherine and Bianca beyond the play’s strict, sexist notion that the ideal woman should be obedient and submissive to their husband. In doing so, the film enfranchises the sisters beyond the play’s binary characterization of women as good or bad. Instead turning them into more complex and human characters. Though the film also introduces Kat and Bianca as rebellious and obedient respectively, scenes in which the sisters discuss their romantic relationships as well as address and resolve their own conflicts allow them complex character development as both women and sisters. As such, the film subverts the play’s gender binaries by prioritizing the development of a loving relationship between sisters in favour of heterosexual romance, thus suggesting that sisterhood is a theme worth contemplation and exploration. The characterizations of Kat and Bianca in 10 Things I Hate About You encourages its audience to reject sexist and limiting understandings of women as depicted in The Taming of the Shrew by illustrating the complexities of young women and idealizing the support and love found within sisterhood.

Peningkatan Kapasitas Literasi Melalui Budaya Baca dan Pengembangan Karakter di Dusun Coci Desa Banua Adolang Kecamatan Pamboang Kabupaten Majene Provinsi Sulawesi Barat

A person's literacy level can be assessed through personal characteristics which are horizontally very closely related. A person's insight, mentality, and behavior are strongly influenced by interests and tendencies in reading books. Since 75 years of Indonesia's independence, the literacy rate in Indonesia is still in the low category. This is strongly influenced by various factors, one of which is the availability of reading materials and literacy facilities. This problem should not be allowed to drag on, it needs serious attention from the government, academics, and education leaders. The discourse on improving reading culture has become a central issue in developing the human resource capacity to produce Indonesian people with character. The development of Indonesian human character is highly dependent on reading culture. The attachment between reading culture and the development of Indonesian human character is expected to have implications for the quality of advanced and modern Indonesian people.
