Vent'anni fa, usciva A Feast For Crows, Un banchetto per i corvi. Le sue origini sono interessanti, in quanto George R.R. Martin aveva intenzione di intitolare il quarto volume della saga A Dance With Dragons, Una danza con i draghi, appunto, con la storia che sarebbe ripresa cinque anni dopo gli eventi dell'ultimo libro pubblicato... ma le cose, lo sappiamo, sono andate diversamente, dando come risultato la cancellazione di questo gap di cinque anni e la divisione in due volumi del libro originale. Di questo, noi non ci lamentiamo: AFFC ci ha dato alcuni tra i passaggi più belli dell'intera saga. Ma, ogni tanto, sorge una piccola domanda: e se fosse andata diversamente? In questo episodio andiamo ad esplorare gli archivi segreti-non-tanto-segreti relativi proprio a Un banchetto per i corvi, tra POV esistenti e POV che sono stati "trasferiti" (si può dire?) nel pubblicato ADWD. Ci sono tante cose da dire e una cosa o due su cui speculare, volendo, per capire se, anche vent'anni dopo, ci sia qualcosa di facilmente individuabile riguardo la linea narrativa della saga intera.Art byLink utili:1) https://www.reddit.com/r/asoiaf/comments/yativy/spoilers_extended_secrets_of_the_cushing_library/2) https://www.reddit.com/r/asoiaf/comments/1hm3cp7/spoilers_extended_secrets_of_the_cushing_library/3) https://www.reddit.com/r/asoiaf/comments/z0x0qp/spoilers_extended_secrets_of_the_cushing_library/4) https://www.reddit.com/r/asoiaf/comments/10cq27q/spoilers_extended_secrets_of_the_cushing_library/5) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVgNXjFKLuk&t=848s6) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1rvp_-9CqD4&t=393sSupportate il canale in cambio di contenuti esclusivi: https://www.patreon.com/LaCittadellaQui trovate tutti i link del canale e dei suoi host: https://linktr.ee/LaCittadella

New year, new book, same old Cersei (pretending to be #New for the High Septon). Margo helps us retrace the steps of Cersei's life and unpack the complexities of her familial and romantic relationships (which are kind of one and the same at times). Where to find Margo https://x.com/King_Margosha https://bsky.app/profile/kingcersei.bsky.social References from Lo Essay: A MOST UNCOMMON WOMAN: Cersei Lannister's Gender Trouble Essay: Maidens, maidenheads, and the patriarchy- Virginity norms in ASOIAF Lo and Virginie's podcast, Ragman's Harbour Mentioned Quotes Susan Stryker definition: "I use [transgender] in this book to refer to people who move away from the gender they were assigned at birth, people who cross (trans-) the boundaries constructed by their culture to define and contain that gender. Some people move away from their birth-assigned gender because they feel strongly that they properly belong to another gender in which it would be better for them to live; others want to strike out toward some new location, some space not yet clearly defined or concretely occupied; still others simply feel the need to get away from the conventional expectations bound up with the gender that was initially put upon them. In any case, it is the movement across a socially imposed boundary away from an unchosen starting place- rather than any particular destination or mode of transition- that best characterizes the concept of ‘transgender' that I want to develop here." From Leslie Feinberg's Transgender Warriors: “Didn't Joan of Arc wear men's clothes?” I asked a friend over coffee in 1975. She had a graduate degree in history; I had barely squeaked through high school. I waited for her answer with great anticipation, but she dismissed my question with a wave of her hand. ”It was just armor.” She seemed so sure, but I couldn't let my question go. Joan of Arc was the only person associated with cross-dressing in history I'd grown up hearing about. I thought a great deal about my friend's answer. Was the story of Joan of Arc dressing in men's clothing merely legend? Was wearing armor significant? If a society strictly mandates only men can be warriors, isn't a woman military leader dressed in armor an example of cross-gendered expression?" ibid. : "No wonder you've passed as a man! This is such an anti-woman society,” a lesbian friend told me. To her, females passing as males are simply trying to escape women's oppression – period. She believes that once true equality is achieved in society, humankind will be genderless. I don't have a crystal ball, so I can't predict human behavior in a distant future. But I know what she's thinking – if we can build a more just society, people like me will cease to exist. She assumes that I am simply a product of oppression. Gee, thanks so much." From Alica Spencer-Hall and Spencer Gutt's Trans and Genderqueer Subjects in Medieval Hagiography: "Marginalised identities are often written out of the historical record by those with the privilege of formulating “historical truth”. The Middle Ages is frequently viewed as a time “where men were men, women were women, everyone was the same race and practised the same faith, and no one was corrupted by technology, sexuality or democracy”. This is not how any medievalist worth their salt would put it. Disingenuous interrogation of the presence of trans people in history is rarely about the factual specifics of the past alone. If talking about trans lives is “anachronistic”, then “trans-ness [is] not an inextricable part of humanity or human diversity”. The transphobe's dream is an imaginary medieval past in which everyone knows their (gendered) place. Similar themes emerge in the usage of the Middle Ages by the alt-right and beyond: those who fantasize a past in which everyone who mattered was straight, cisgender, white, and Christian. White supremacists and fascists weaponize the Middle Ages to justify their hatred. ------ Eliana's twitter: https://twitter.com/arhythmetric Eliana's reddit account: https://www.reddit.com/user/glass_table_girl Eliana's blog: https://themanyfacedblog.wordpress.com/ Chloe's twitter: https://twitter.com/liesandarbor Chloe's blog: liesandarborgold.com Intro by Anton Langhage
In this episode, Dateline has commissioned the incomparable Andrea Canning for a long and twisted story with a DEADLY OMISSION! It's a case involving a man who played too good a game of Peek A Boo and somehow lost two wives, through no fault of his own, of course. Despite the tragic untimely deaths of multiple (?!) victims, this episode had everything that Kimberly and Katie like to see in a Dateline: 90s hairstyles, a Habitat for Humanity Pink Poodle Club Wolf Pack, and a scene that demonstrates what it would be like if Kimberly's parents tried to wiretap a relative. Join us for the justice times two (!) in DEADLY OMISSION/COMMISSION/EMISSION/COMPOSITION/DEPOSITION! Official Description from NBCU: A murder unearths an unsolved mystery from years earlier; as the connection between the two cases becomes clear, a long-hidden truth surfaces. Andrea Canning reports.

We have waited six years to finally get to this POV... but that's only half as much time as Jon Connington has been pretending to be dead.

Dennis Murphy returns for his second Dennisode in a row, which is always a Jenerous gift to our screens from Dateline. So, when a beloved and brave firefighter is murdered in his home, it's going to take Dennis Murphy's gumshoe quips and the no-nonsense mama bear skills of Kimberly and Katie's new favorite Dateline detective Val “Vivi” Vaughn to solve this case. Only they can handle the sex, lies, and security footage in this twisted case. Keep those phroggers out of your fridge, try to keep your Jens straight, and leave the poor guy in the coma alone, because when there's smoke, there's fire in Dateline's THE KILLER ON CAMERA 4!

It's a case that Josh Mankiewicz himself calls one of the most unusual ever! Gauntlet thrown! But he's right (as usual)! When a caring mother is stabbed in her home, the who isn't the real question. Her 18 year old foster daughter was found with the knife. The real question is the why, and the WHO ELSE? The answer is so diabolical that both Lester and Josh say it twice in the first 2 minutes of the episode! And it doesn't slow down from there. It's got a man so ick that it gives all others a run for their money, a scandalous trial, and a betrayal parallelogram! Plus, K and K struggle with basic math and have surprisingly strong feelings about blue Gatorade. It's DEADLY BETRAYAL: We Just Can't Get Ka-nough Dateline! Official Description from NBCU: Authorities work to establish why a loving mother was brutally stabbed to death in her home. Hosted by Josh Mankiewicz. Check out our amazing sponsors!
