Episode 219:In this episode I take a look at the court masques of the Jacobean period. To do this I'm very lucky to have the guidance of Kristen McDermott who edited and wrote an extensive introduction to a collection of Jonson's Masques called Masques of Difference. It is a volume that has been in print for an impressive twenty years and one that I found immensely useful in aiding my understanding of the court masque, an art form that can seem very obscure to us now. In the first part of the conversation Kristen describes the development of the masque from it's very early days through to its flowering in the court of James 1st largely under the care of Ben Jonson and Inigo Jones. Next time Kris and I continue the conversation and discuss some of those ‘masques of difference' and the later years of the court masque.Kristen McDermott is professor of English at Central Michigan University and co-author with Ari Berk of ‘William Shakespeare His Life and Times' and the collection ‘Masques of Difference', as well as numerous papers on Shakespeare and renaissance theatre.

No 3 em 1 desta quinta-feira (04), o destaque foi que o senador Flávio Bolsonaro (PL) encontrou-se com o governador Tarcísio de Freitas e o prefeito Ricardo Nunes na Marcha para Jesus, em São Paulo, nesta quinta (04). Durante o evento, o parlamentar minimizou tensões e chamou Tarcísio de “grande aliado”. Analistas da bancada avaliam se o ato religioso serviu como palanque político e discutem o cenário eleitoral. O senador Flávio Bolsonaro (PL) discursou nesta quinta (04) na Marcha para Jesus, em São Paulo, classificando o atual cenário político como uma “guerra espiritual”. A bancada de analistas repercutiu as declarações do parlamentar sobre a polarização eleitoral. O debate destacou a importância de pautas econômicas e de segurança pública para o eleitorado conservador em 2026. O ministro Edson Fachin autorizou a AGU a assumir a defesa de Alexandre de Moraes em uma ação movida pelas plataformas Rumble e Trump Media nos Estados Unidos nesta quinta (04). Fachin justificou que o processo envolve a soberania do país e a independência do Judiciário. A bancada do 3 em 1 repercute a legalidade da medida e os limites territoriais das decisões da Suprema Corte brasileira. A ex-ministra Gleisi Hoffmann criticou publicamente o ex-deputado federal Eduardo Bolsonaro nesta quinta (04). A reação ocorreu após o parlamentar sugerir a substituição do Pix pelo sistema norte-americano Zelle. A bancada do 3 em 1 debateu a complexidade técnica e os custos de uma eventual troca, além de apontar o Pix como uma infraestrutura pública consolidada pelo Banco Central. O governo de Donald Trump indicou o deputado da Flórida Daniel Perez para assumir a embaixada norte-americana em Brasília nesta quinta (04). A decisão gerou mal-estar no Itamaraty porque a Casa Nova não consultou o governo brasileiro antes do anúncio, quebrando o rito tradicional do "agrément". Fabrízio Neitzke analisa os impactos dessa indicação ideológica no 3 em 1. Os governos do Brasil e da Suécia ratificaram a intenção de expandir a parceria na área de defesa com a compra de mais 20 caças Gripen, da empresa Saab. O anúncio ocorreu nesta quinta (04), em Estocolmo, com os ministros José Múcio e Pål Jonson. O novo lote vai reforçar as 36 aeronaves já adquiridas. A bancada do 3 em 1 discute o investimento em meio a restrições orçamentárias. O Advogado Geral da União, Jorge Messias, rebateu as declarações do senador Flávio Bolsonaro (PL) durante a Marcha para Jesus nesta quinta (04). Em resposta, Messias defendeu que o evento não deve ser usado como comício eleitoral e afirmou ter entregue sua indicação ao STF nas mãos de Deus. O presidente Lula (PT) justificou sua ausência na Marcha para Jesus por meio de uma ligação telefônica para o organizador do evento. Em áudio divulgado nas redes, o mandatário afirmou que não compareceu para evitar passar a ideia de que estaria tirando proveito político de uma ocasião sagrada. O ex-deputado federal Eduardo Bolsonaro (PL) publicou um vídeo negando que tenha sugerido a substituição do Pix pela ferramenta norte-americana Zelle. Ele reforçou que o Pix foi criado no governo de Jair Bolsonaro sem taxas e desafiou a imprensa a mostrar provas. O ministro do STF, Luiz Fux, afirmou em Curitiba que juízes e magistrados não podem decidir motivados por vontade política, ressaltando que não são membros eleitos. Fux rebateu críticas de ativismo judicial na corte e declarou que o parlamento está dividido por ideologias. A PGR e a Polícia Federal devem definir na próxima semana se aceitam o novo acordo de delação premiada de Daniel Vorcaro. A defesa do banqueiro entregou um material complementar na última segunda (1º), após a primeira versão ser considerada incompleta por poupar nomes de investigados. Vorcaro segue preso na superintendência da PF. O ex-vereador do Rio de Janeiro, Dr. Jairinho, foi condenado a 43 anos e nove meses de prisão pela morte de Henry Borel, ocorrida em março de 2021. O Tribunal do Júri chegou ao veredito após 11 dias de julgamento. Já a mãe da vítima, Monique Medeiros, teve a acusação desclassificada para homicídio culposo e recebeu perdão judicial.

Episode 213:In the spring of 1606, a new Ben Jonson play premiered, not on this occasion at the Blackfriars theatre performed by one of the child companies, but at the Globe and performed by the King's Men. The reasons for why Jonson sold his play to the King's Men are not completely clear. Having a play performed by the Kings Men was, of course, prestigious in itself, and some of his early plays had been performed by the Lord Chamberlin's Men, but up to this point for his most recent plays Johnson had seemed to prefer using the child companies. It may be that the Children of the Queens Revels were wary of another Jonson play after the problems that ‘Eastward Ho' had caused for the playwrights, or perhaps Johnson himself felt it would be wise to distance himself from that association and switching to the adult company was a way of doing that. Perhaps Jonson had seen the writing on the wall for the Children of the Queens Revels after they had got into trouble for a production of a play by John Day called ‘The Isle of Gulls'.

For review:1.  The U.S. proposed that Iran accept a 20-year moratorium on uranium enrichment during talks over the weekend, according to a U.S. official and a source with knowledge..  The Iranians countered with a shorter "single digit" period, according to the sources.2.  US Aircraft carrier USS George H.W. Bush (CVN-77) is operating off the coast of Namibia, as it sails around the African continent and is set to join a growing naval force in the Arabian Sea amid a U.S. blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, USNI News has learned. 3.  The US military on Monday detailed the boundaries of its Strait of Hormuz blockade, saying it would extend east to the Gulf of Oman and Arabian Sea, while ship-tracking data showed two ships turned around in the strait as the blockade went into effect. The blockade began at 10 a.m. US Eastern Time on Monday. 4.  Responding to the US blockade announcement, Iran said the move was illegal and “amounts to piracy,” and threatened a “forceful response” to any renewed military action amid a fragile 14-day ceasefire that was reached last week. 5.  France and Britain will co-host a summit this week to discuss a “coordinated, independent, multinational plan” to safeguard shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer said Monday. 6.  All three major Hebrew TV networks reported that the IDF is gearing up for renewed conflict with Iran after the ceasefire talks between the United States and the Islamic Republic collapsed, in what appeared to be a coordinated leak by defense officials on Sunday. 7.   The Israeli military has nearly completed the capture of the Hezbollah stronghold of Bint Jbeil in southern Lebanon, killing more than 100 members of the terror group in the area in the process, the Israel Defense Forces said Monday. 8. Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem on Monday urged Lebanon to cancel a planned meeting with Israel in Washington the following day, reiterating his group's rejection of direct negotiations with its sworn enemy. 9.  Israeli PM Netanyahu castigated Europe on Monday, as Israel ushered in Holocaust Remembrance Day in a pre-recorded ceremony, amid ongoing hostilities with Iran and the Hezbollah terror group in Lebanon. 10.  European allies must wean themselves off an “addiction” to US defense capabilities and step up regional military planning and rearmament, Swedish defense minister Jonson told Breaking Defense in an exclusive interview.

Episode 209: After the failure of ‘Sejanus His Fall' Jonson's next play was a collaboration with John Marston and George Chapman, a new play for the Blackfriars's theatre and it's resident company of boy actors. Jonson maybe needed the collaboration to restore his confidence in his writing, although from what we know of his character perhaps more likely it was the hope of a decent payday that spurred him on. Returning to comedy must have been part of the attraction. Whatever the case the three playwrights managed to produce a comedy that was funny, thoughtful, moralistic and yet still controversial. The exact reasons for that controversy and the strength of reaction to the play from king James is now obscure to us, but at the time nearly cost the playwrights not only their liberty, but their ears as well.The three authors of the play – who wrote what?The first performance and printing of the playA synopsis of the plotThe play as a response to ‘Westward Ho!'The PrologueThe comparison of good and bad work ethicsThe child acting companies and how their plays were receivedCombining three types of play on ‘Eastward Ho'The city comedyThe citizen comedyThe morality taleThree journeys in the play The voyage to Virginia Gertrude's journey Golding's rise in the cityReference to the Roanoke settlement and the view of the New WorldThe fate of the adventurers after the shipwreckThe influence of the city of London and alchemyThe pairing of characters for dramatic effectThe theatrical nature of the play and Quicksilver's redemptionThe consequences of the play for the playwrightsThe later performance history of the playSupport the podcast at:www.thehistoryofeuropeantheatre.comwww.patreon.com/thoetpwww.ko-fi.com/thoetp Hosted on Acast.

Audiobook. God's Secretaries: The Making of the King James Bible. Chapters 1-4. In God's Secretaries, Adam Nicolson gives a fascinating and dramatic account of the era of the King James Bible and its translation, immersing us in an age whose greatest monument is not a painting or a building but a book. A network of complex currents flowed across Jacobean England. This was the England of Shakespeare, Jonson, and Bacon; the era of the Gunpowder Plot and the worst outbreak of the plague. Jacobean England was both more godly and less godly than the country had ever been, and the entire culture was drawn taut between these polarities.  This was the world that created the King James Bible. It is the greatest work of English prose ever written, and it is no coincidence that the translation was made at the moment "Englishness," specifically the English language itself, had come into its first passionate maturity. The English of Jacobean England has a more encompassing idea of its own scope than any form of the language before or since. It drips with potency and sensitivity. The age, with all its conflicts, explains the book.   This excerpt serves as an introduction to this fine book and audiobook. Purchase the entire book at Amazon or your favorite book seller   NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK “This elegant account of the creation of what four centuries of history has confirmed is the finest English-language work of all time, is entirely true to its subject: Adam Nicolson's lapidary prose is masterly, his measured account both as readable as the curious demand and as dignified as the story deserves.”  — Simon Winchester, author of Krakatoa

You can read it though, just a summary of the banger of a video you're watching.The Dark Angels are easily one of the most secretive—and dangerous—forces in Warhammer 40,000. On the surface, they're noble, knightly warriors—Arthurian legends in power armor. But beneath that polished image lies a legion defined by paranoia, hidden sins, and a secret that could damn them all: the Fallen.In this deep dive, we break down the full history of the First Legion—from their brutal origins during the Unification Wars, through the rise of Lion El'Jonson, to the catastrophic events of the Horus Heresy that shattered their legacy. We explore how the Dark Angels became the Emperor's ultimate problem-solvers—wielding forbidden weapons, fighting humanity's worst enemies, and operating more like black-ops than traditional Space Marines.But the real story begins after their fall from grace. As the truth about their traitorous brothers spread across time and space, the Dark Angels became something far more complex: a legion obsessed with secrecy, redemption, and absolute control over their own narrative. Their hunt for the Fallen has shaped everything they are, pushing them to the edge of loyalty and heresy in equal measure.With the return of the Lion and major shifts in the current timeline, the Dark Angels are once again at the center of the galaxy's fate.

Försvarsminister Pål Jonson (M) om kriget i Iran, om lättade amerikanska sanktioner mot Ryssland och om kärnvapendialogen med Frankrike. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. I USA:s och Israels pågående krig mot Iran har Nato skjutit ned åtminstone tre iranska robotar i, eller på väg mot Nato-landet Turkiet. Vad skulle Sverige göra om Turkiet bad om hjälp enligt Natos artikel 5? ”Vi följer ju det noggrant och vi är allierade med Turkiet och 30 andra länder. Och Natos högste befälhavare, SACEUR, har ju också vidtagit beredskapsåtgärder för att stärka den södra flanken. Det finns europeiska allierade som är i regionen med Patriot-robotar och det vidtas åtgärder för att hålla den flanken stark”, säger försvarsminister Pål Jonson (M). Men vad gör Sverige? ”Vi har inte fått någon förfrågan av vare sig Turkiet eller något annat land om att bidra med några resurser. Det har till del att göra med att vi har väldigt mycket på tallriken också här uppe på den norra flanken, naturligtvis. Men i övrigt så, Turkiet har ännu inte åberopat artikel 4-konsultationer eller, som Natos generalsekreterare sade, att det finns inte skäl med under nuvarande omständigheter med artikel 5. Men vi följer naturligtvis situationen och utvecklingen i regionen noggrant och inte minst hur det påverkar en allierad som Turkiet. Vi har ju nära dialog också med andra länder på södra flanken och diskuterar med dem hur deras säkerhet påverkas av detta”.Lättade sanktioner mot rysk oljaSedan den fullskaliga invasionen av Ukraina 2022 har Sverige gett militärt stöd till Ukraina till ett värde av 103 miljarder kronor, för att Ukraina ska kunna försvara sig mot Ryssland. Enligt Militära underrättelse- och säkerhetstjänsten, Must, är sanktionerna mot den ryska energisektorn ”av stor betydelse” för att bromsa den ryska förmågetillväxten. Men under torsdagen meddelade USA att man tillfälligt lättar på sanktionerna mot rysk olja. Hur ser försvarsminister Pål Jonson på det? ”Vi tycker inte att det är bra att man lättar på sanktionerna. Vi uppmanar alla att hålla ett så högt tryck på Ryssland som möjligt. Det är ju också en förutsättning för att förhandlingarna mellan Ryssland och Ukraina ska ha framgång. Det handlar om att öka det militära stöd till Ukraina så Ukraina kan förhandla från en styrkeposition och om att öka trycket mot Ryssland genom ökade sanktioner, ökade aktiviteter mot skuggflottan och saker som helt enkelt begränsar och förnekar den ryska handlingsfriheten”, säger Pål Jonson. Kriget mot Iran och folkrätten USA:s president Trump startade kriget mot Iran utan att först söka stöd från kongressen, sina allierade eller FN:s säkerhetsråd. Hur ser Pål Jonson (M) på det sättet att starta krig?”I en traditionell folkrättslig bedömning så finns det sannolikt inte stöd för det här. Samtidigt ska man vara klar över att det iranska agerandet inte heller ryms inom folkrätten, givetvis. Man har ju bara det senaste året angripit oppositionen och tagit ihjäl tiotusentals människor. Iran är ett land som också angriper andra länder nu i regionen och Iran har också agerat mot Sverige genom alltifrån Johan Flodéus där man har gjort rena kidnappningar och lejt personer för att kunna angripa diplomatiska installationer i Sverige. Så Irans agerande ryms inte heller inom folkrätten”, säger Pål Jonson.Franska kärnvapen i Sverige? Frankrike ska skaffa fler strategiska kärnvapen och nyligen bjöd president Macron in Sverige och sju andra europeiska länder till en fördjupad dialog om samarbete kring kärnvapenavskräckning. I ett tal som Macron höll förra veckan på en ubåtsbas sade han att slutmålet är att tillfälligt kunna placera delar av landets strategiska flygstridskrafter i allierade länder. Betyder det att han vill kunna ha ett flygplan med kärnvapen i Sverige?”Bland annat säger han ju det. Han säger många olika saker i det talet, det är ett rätt så brett tal. Han påminner också om de åtgärder som Frankrike har gjort för att ensidigt reducera sin kärnvapenförmåga. Man har gått från ungefär 600 ner till 290, man har tagit bort den markbaserade förmågan. Man pratar om icke-spridningsavtalet”, säger Pål Jonson.Jag vill prata om kärnvapen i Sverige. Utifrån att det är en stor debatt här och hur det låter från Frankrike, hur tolkar du vad han säger? ”Frankrike vet om vår doktrin, och den har vi givetvis lyft upp och det tror jag också Danmark har gjort. Så det är inte aktuellt att basera franska kärnvapen på svenskt territorium i fredstid, och det har vi också givetvis deklarerat. Det skulle kunna handla om vilken roll Frankrike vill spela. Det vill säga, hur man hanterar strategisk avskräckning och gemensam kommunikation. Det kan handla om övningar”, säger Pål Jonson.

Robert is the guiding light behind ‘Beyond Shakespeare' a project that aims to shine a light on very early theatre through to Early Modern theatre. As the name ‘Beyond Shakespeare' suggests Robert is keen to look at plays not written by Shakespeare and indeed, as you will hear, much of Robert's work looks at works written long before Shakespeare was around. I first came across ‘Beyond Shakespeare' through the online readings of early modern plays that Robert has produced as a means of working towards full audio and staged productions. It was a very useful point of reference for me when I was looking as those early Jonson plays where there is little chance of seeing a performance.Beyond Shakespeare:Link to Website: https://beyondshakespeare.org/Link to YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BeyondShakespeareSupport the podcast at:www.thehistoryofeuropeantheatre.comwww.patreon.com/thoetpwww.ko-fi.com/thoetp Hosted on Acast.

Elizabeth Baird Hardy, Deputy Headmistress of Hogwarts Professor, the genius behind AppalachianInkling.com, Hunger Games expert, and author of Milton, Spenser and the Chronicles of Narnia: Literary Sources for the C.S. Lewis Novels, joined Nick and John to discuss the Charm Bracelet that J. K. Rowling posted on her Twixter home page as a Christmas gift to her readers. She said that that the thirteen charms on nine links were a set of clues about the next Strike novel, the ninth in a ten book series.In the first Part of Elizabeth, Nick, and John's conversation, they discussed Rowling's charm bracelet history, speculated about why she posted this picture when she did, decided to look at each charm on the bracelet for its stand-alone meaning and its place in the nine link set, and to read the whole series as if it were a ring composition, one reflecting a nine Part structure in Strike 9. They then made deep dives into the details of each charm: the heart shaped box containing a ‘You and Me' engagement ring, a golden diamond-laden egg, a foul anchor, two angels, and a Trojan horse.In this second Part of that conversation, the trio of Serious Strikers continue with the remaining charms on the bracelet, namely, a Jack-in-the-box, an Hourglass, a White Rose and Crocodile, a Corvid head, and a Psalter paired on the last link with the Head of Persephone. They share their thoughts, too, about the bracelet as a symbolic integer and its ring meaning.The notes below are in support of references they make mid-flight and to other resources of interest to Magic Charm Decoders! Enjoy.Thank you to all our subscribers with special gratitude and appreciations for our paid subscribers; you are the wind in our sails, the heat from our vents… Serious Strikers are reading Browning's The Ring and the Book, charting Hallmarked Man Part Six, and reviewing the Myth of Cupid and Psyche to look for parallels in the Strike-Ellacott series. See you soon!Jack-in-the-Box Charm* Rowling claims this as her favorite charm (Nick and John in the conversation mistakenly attribute this preference to the Psalter charm):* Badly Wired Lamp ID'd it* Is it a devil — or a Racoon?* The jack in the box toy, the 'Jack' being a devil, was invented in Germany in the 16th century as a mockery of the Roman Catholic doctrine of the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist. * The shape of this charm, the golden circular center in the inside of the open box top, represents the transcendent spiritual realm and the square bottom with its four directions, the fallen world. The ‘jack' devil lives in the latter but is from the former.* The charm is the third latched object in the chain, the heart box and Trojan horse preceding it and the psalter at chain's end following it — which means the ring latch and center are latched objects with surprises inside. The two interior objects at center have deadly surprises and the beginning and end eternal life interiors. The symbolism here is of the human being and its capacity via choice for either spiritual perfection in sacrificial love (anteros) or consumption by individual desires (eros). The thing hidden inside, man's spiritual capacity or heart, is either light or darkness, the inside bigger than the outside. (John)* What is the Strike 9 connection, the analogue to the demonic Jack in the box? Is it RFM? Uncle Ted? Ilsa's husband Nick? Polworth?* The Jack's position is at the center of the bracelet and between the hourglass and the Trojan horse. So it's placed between cleverness and craftiness and things that we can control and bad surprises, but also time, because we can't control time. (Elizabeth)Hourglass Charm* tempus fugit ‘like sand in an hourglass'* memento mori* infinite symbol* The Strike series may be a collection of mystery-story genres, each one illustrating a unique type of story, different from all the others while keeping the same core of characters and overarching narrative (cf., Rowling's note in The Running Grave acknowledgements that that book was her “cult” book). The hourglass, then, may be Rowling's pointer to Strike9 being a suspense drama in which the good guys not only have a challenging mission (find and rescue the missing Robin, Strike, Lucy, Pat, whomever) but have to do it before a literal deadline arrives. The Ticking Clock plot device.* If the Jack at link five is the center of the bracelet ring of nine links, how does the hourglass mirror the Trojan horse? It's two parts? The deadline aspect? “Reveal the crazies inside before the hourglass empties”?White Rose Charm* White Rose of Yorkshire* The interior of the flower charm is a literal Turtleback or ring composition diagram.* White Rose of Dante: Paradiso Cantos XXXI and XXXIIThe true home of all the blessed is with God in the Empyrean, a heaven of pure light beyond time and space. Dante sees the blessed systematically arranged in an immense white rose: like a hologram, a three-dimensional image, the rose is formed from a ray of light reflected off the outer surface of the Primum Mobile (30.106-17). The queen of this white rose is the Virgin Mary, traditionally represented as a rose herself (see Par. 23.73-4). This celestial rose recalls large rose windows of Gothic cathedrals, many of which are dedicated to Mary. The image of the rose, often red, is also used to represent Christ or, in other contexts, earthly love. The white rose is symmetrically structured according to various criteria, including belief, age, and gender. One half of the rose, already full, holds those who, according to Christian tradition, believed in Christ to come (the blessed of the Hebrew Bible); the other half, with only a few seats still unoccupied, contains those who believed in Christ already come (saved Christians). Two gendered rows mark this division of the rose in two halves. In the row below Mary appear women of the Hebrew Bible (Eve, Rachel, Sarah, Rebecca, Judith, Ruth, and unnamed others); Beatrice is seated next to Rachel, on the third row from the top. Opposite Mary, John the Baptist heads a row of men containing Francis, Benedict, Augustine, and other Christian fathers. Mary is flanked by Adam (first man) and Moses on one side, and Peter (first pope) and John the Evangelist on the other. John the Baptist is flanked by Lucy on one side and Anna, the mother of Mary, on the other. While only adults are seated in the upper section of the rose, below a certain line the rose contains souls of blessed children, their precise location based not on their own merits (since they lacked the power of free will) but on predestination. As physical laws do not apply in the Empyrean, Dante's ability to see these figures is not diminished by distance (30.118-23; 31.76-8).* White Rose of Mockingjay (Hunger Games finale)The prevailing symbol of Catching Fire and the most meaningful token the Christ figure of the series gives Katniss is a pearl, the solid-light symbolism of which we've discussed before. I think Commander Paylor's name may be our last Madge-Pearl-Mags name reference in being a “pale orb.” That gold and pearls have a similar translucency and metaphysical correspondence with the ‘Light of the World' make the twin possibilities that much more rich — and Commander Paylor's ascending to Panem's Presidency that much more meaningful and appropriate.Katniss steps into the Garden with the Pearl's blessing (“on my authority”) and discovers roses of every possible color. There are red, of course, and “lush pink, sunset orange, and even pale blue.” She knows what she wants, though; the rose colored like light, the white rose, Dante's symbolic prelude to the beatific vision and transcendence. Just as she cuts the “magnificent white bud just about to open” “from the top of a slender bush” (ibid, p. 355), the manacled, “pale, sickly green” President Snow, our snake in the Garden, speaks.“The colors, are lovely, of course, but nothing says perfection like white.”Our story Satan, you recall, left her a white rose in District 12 in chapter 1 and dropped roses with the bunker buster bombs in Part 1 to terrify Katniss. Now we know why. He was taunting her with her end, that as a seeker's soul he knew her goal was perfection in Christ and taunted her with it, especially when he held Peeta-Christ and understood the cartharsis and chrysalis she would have to pass through to claim it herself. Now that she is in the inner sanctuary, the High Place, he tells her the truth she could not hear anywhere else, the final, ugly truth about the cause for which Katniss had sacrificed everything. Snow reveals, just as Peeta had told her at the story's start, that she was deceived by those she trusted. President Coin killed Primrose with a weapon designed by Gale.Having been to the Absolute center, the world navel, and taken away the beatific vision as a white rose, Katniss is no longer a seeker but the resolution of contraries, an androgyn of justice and mercy. She is above right and wrong now as the phoenix-mockingjay and hears the voice of the “murderer” on the Hanging Tree at last. She deceives President Coin at the Victors Meeting as something of an avenging angel; she becomes a murderer herself by assassinating President Coin. Peeta-Christ comes down from the tree as her savior once again and prevents her suicide via Nightlock by his out-of-nowhere intervention.* Why does the White Rose share the seventh bracelet link with a crocodile? Faerie Queene!Crocodile Charm* The Crocodile in Shed, crocodile skin handbags (Hallmarked Man) “Maybe the4 crocodile or whatever they're keeping in the shed's chewed its way out,” said Strike. “ (Chapter 22, p 176; center chapter of Part 2)* Crocodile entry, Cirlot's Dictionary of SymbolismCrocodile Two basically different aspects of the crocodile are blended in its symbolic meaning, representing the influence upon the animal of two of the four Elements. In the first place, because of it viciousness and destructive power, the crocodile came to signify fury and evil in Egyptian hieroglyphics (19); in the second place, since it inhabits a realm intermediate between earth and water, and is associated with mud and vegetation, it came to be thought of as an emblem of fecundity and power (50). In the opinion of Mertens Stienon there is a third aspct, deriving from its resemblance to the dragon and the serpent, as a symbol of knowledge. In Egypt, the dead used to be portrayed transformed into crocodiles of knowledge, an idea which is linked with that of the zodiacal sign of Capricorn. Blavatsky compares the crocodile with the Kumara of India (40). Then, finally, come the symbols of Inversion proper and of rebirth. (67)* Lyndy Abraham's Dictionary of Alchemical Imagery entry for ‘Crocodile:'Crocodile The mercurial *serpent or transforming arcanum in its initial chthonic aspect during the dark, destructive opening of the opus alchymicum. Like the *bee, the crocodile was classified as a serpent in te bestiaries of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The amphibious nature of the crocodile made it an apt symbol for the dual-natured *Mercurius. When Lepidus in Shakespeare's Antony and Cleopatra says, ‘Your serpent of Egypt is bred of your mud by the operation of your sun; so is your crocodile' (2.7.26-7), he is referring to the generation of gold in the earth, and the generation of the mercurial serpent through the heat of the secret *fire or ‘sun'. With the phrase ‘operation of your sun' Lepidus also alludes to the final law of the alchemical Emerald Table: ‘That which I had to say about the operation of the Sun is completed' (48)* Sandy Hope on Crocodile symbolismIsis Church crocodile in Faerie Queene: Book 5, Canto VIIBook V Canto vii. The speaker praises the virtue of justice and cites Osyris as an example of the just man. His wife, Isis, represented equity and to the Temple of Isis Britomart and Talus come to spend the night. Talus, however, is not allowed into the temple. Britomart enters and sees a statue of Isis with her foot on a crocodile. The temple is also full of the priests of Isis who are not allowed to drink wine as it leads to rebellion. Britomart sleeps under the statue of Isis and dreams that the crocodile comes alive and threatens the Goddess. The Goddess subdues the crocodile and it becomes meek and then impregnates the Goddess. She gives birth to a lion which conquers all other beats. Britomart awakes and tells her troubling dream to a priest. He tells her that the crocodile represents Arthegall, Isis represents Britomart, and the lion their son whom they will conceive. Grateful for the interpretation, Britomart leaves and comes to Radigund's castle. Radigund and Britomart battle, Britomart is wounded in the shoulder, and finally Britomart beheads Radigund. Talus enters the castle and wreaks carnage on the Amazon women inside. Britomart finds Arthegall dressed, like other, in women's clothing. she is shamed by the sight, and it is not quite clear whether her suspicions that Arthegall has been unfaithful are confirmed or refuted. She finds Arthegall some armour, arms him, and the rest in the castle. during this time Britomart rules as a princess and reforms the Amazon society so that women are restored to proper subjection to men. Finally, Arthegall leaves to complete his quest against Grantorto. Britomart lets him leave because she knows that his success in this quest is important to restore his ego. After residing further at the Amazon castle she finally leaves to help keep her mind off the absent Arthegall.* The Spenser Encyclopedia entry for ‘Church of Isis:' (408) Clifford DavidsonWhen Britomart spends the night in the temple, she sees a ‘wondrous vision' in which she participates first as a votary of Isis and then as the goddess herself. Her devotion to the statue causes her to become Isis in her dream: she is serving at the altar when she sees herself transformed into Isis but wearing the royal robe. The crocodile awakens, devours the flames which threaten to destroy the temple, and threatens to eat Isis/Britomart until it is driven back by her rod. Then it seeks her ‘grace and love,' she yields, it impregnates her, and from their union she gives birth to a lion. As the Priest explains, the crocodile is Osiris (the Egyptian god of Justice) who sleeps under the feet of Isis ‘To shew that clemence oft in things amis,/ Restraines those sterne behests, and cruell doomes of his' (22), and who shows thereby the proper relation of justice and judgment to equity. The Priest also explains to Britomart that the crocodile is Artegall, ‘The righteous Knight,' who will settle the storms and ‘raging flames, that many foes shall reare' and restore to her the heritage of her throne, and who will give her a ‘Lion like' son (23), the new British monarchy of the Tudors.The crocodile is a symbol both of guile and of a regeneration that will affect future history. As guile, its relation to Isis is reminiscent of Vice figures under the feet of triumphing Virtues in medieval art. An iconographic association between the crocodile in its demonic aspect and medieval saints' legends derives ultimately – significantly for Spenser – from the classical figure of Britomartis (Miskimin 1978). In Plutarch's Isis and Osiris 50, it is linked to Typhon, the enemy of justice and order, while in Renaissance iconographic tradition it is often symbolic of the need for prudence (for one must be prudent to avoid the wily crocodile). Cesare Ripa's Iconologia (sv Lussuria) shows the nude Luxury (or Lechery) seated upon a crocodile, an interesting analogy to its phallic sexuality in Britomart's dream. Yet along with these primarily negative associations, there are also positive ones in the crocodile's identification with Osiris/Artegall/Justice and in the implication that Isis/Britomart/Equity is incomplete without her partner. The image contains its own contradiction, unresolved by the Priest.* Troubled Blood and Faerie Queene: Where Britobart and Artegall are used as stand-ins for Robin and Cormoran:Troubled Blood features several embedded texts, the most important of which is never mentioned in the book: Edmund Spenser's Faerie Queen. Serious Strikers enjoyed the luxury of not one but two scholars of Edmund Spenser who checked in on the relevance and meaning of Rowling's choice of the greatest English epic poem for her epigraphs, not to mention the host of correspondences between Strike 5 and Queen. Elizabeth Baird-Hardy did a part by part exegesis of the Troubled Blood-Faerie Queen conjunctions and Beatrice Groves shared her first thoughts on the connections as well. Just as Lethal White's meaning and artistry is relatively unappreciated without a close reading of Ibsen's Rosmersholm, so with Strike 5 and Faerie Queen.Elizabeth Baird-Hardy* Day One, Part One: The Spenserian Epigraphs of the Pre-Released Troubled Blood Chapters* Day Two, Part Two: The Spenserian Epigraphs of Troubled Blood Chapters Eight to Fourteen* Day Three, Part Three: The Spenserian Epigraphs of Troubled Blood Chapters Fifteen to Thirty* Day Four, Part Four: The Spenserian Epigraphs of Troubled Blood Chapters Thirty One to Forty Eight* Day Five, Part Five: The Spenserian Epigraphs of Troubled Blood Chapters Forty Nine to Fifty Nine* Part Six: The Spenserian Epigraphs of Troubled Blood Chapters Sixty to Seventy One* Spenser and Strike Part Seven: Changes for the BetterBeatrice Groves* Trouble in Faerie Land (Part 1): Spenserian Clues in Troubled Blood Epigraphs* Trouble in Faerie Land (Part 2): Shipping Robin and Strike in the Epigraphs of Troubled Blood* Trouble in Faerie Land (Part 3): Searching for Duessa in Troubled BloodJohn Granger:* How Spenser Uses Cupid in Faerie Queen and Its Relevance for Understanding Troubled Blood* Reading Troubled Blood as a Medieval Morality PlayCorvid Charm* Rowling Twixter headers: 12 January 2016, 9 April 2017 (Nick)* Fantastic Beasts reference? The Lestrange Family Motto features a crow and the ‘Lost Child' of that series is named ‘Corvus'* Crow Symbolism per Cirlot, Dictionary of Symbols:Crow Because of its black colour, the crow is associated with the idea of beginning (as expressed in such symbols as the maternal night, primigenial darkness, the fertilizing earth). Because it is also associated with the atmosphere, it is a symbol for creative, demiurgic power and for spiritual strength. Because of its flight, it is considered a messenger. And, in sum, the crow has been invested by many primitive peoples with far-reaching cosmic significance. Indeed, for the Red Indians of North America it is the great civilizer and the creator of the visible world. It has a similar meaning for the Celts and the Germanic tribes, as well as in Siberia (35). In the classical cultures it no longer possesses such wide implications, but it does still retain certain mystic powers and in particular the ability to foresee the future; hence its claw played a special part in rites of divination (8). In Christian symbolism it is an allegory of solitude. Amongst the alchemists it recovers some of the original characteristics ascribed to it by the primitives, standing in particular for nigredo, or the initial state which is both the inherent characteristic of prime matter and the condition produced by separating out the Elements (putrefactio) … In Beaumont's view, the crow in itself signifies the isolation of him who lives on a superior plane (5), this being the symbolism in general of all solitary birds. (71-72)* Lyndy Abraham's Dictionary of Alchemical Imagery entry for ‘Crow:' (49)Crow, crow's head, crow's bill A symbol of the *putrefaction and *black nigredo which is the first stge of the opus alchymicum. The old body of the metal or matter for the Stone is dissolved and putrefied into the first matter of *creation, the *prima materia, so that it may be regenerated and cast into a new form. The Hermetis Trismegisti Tractatus Aureus said of this initial stage of death and dissolution in the work: ‘The First is the Corvus, the Crow or Raven, which from its blackness is said to be the beginning of the Art' (bk. 2, 235). In his Aurora, Paracelsus wrote that when the matter has been placed in the gentle heat of the secret fire it passes through corruption and grows black: ‘This operation they call putrefaction, and the blackness they name the head of the Crow' (55). Thomas Charnock likewise wrote of the putrefaction: ‘The Crowes head began to appere as black as Jett' (TCB, 296). In Zoroaster's Cave the matter produced during this stage is identified with the name of the process: ‘When the matter has stood for the space of forty dayes in a moderate heat, there will begin to appear above, a blacknesse like to pitch, which is the Caput Corvi of the Philosophers, and the wise men's Mercury' (80). According to Ripley the terms ‘crows head' and ‘crows bill' are synonymous: ‘The hede of the Crow that tokeyn call we,/And sum men call hyt the Crows byll' (TCB, 134) (see ashes). In A Fig for Momus Thomas Lodge listed the crow's head amongst other alchemical enigmas: ‘Then of the crowes-head, tell they weighty things' (Works, 3:69). When Face in Jonson's The Alchemist says that the matter of the Stone has become ‘ground black', Mammon enquires of him, ‘That's your crowes-head? And Subtle replies, ‘No, ‘tis not perfect, would it were the crow' (2.3.67-8).Psalter Charm* In ‘Charms, Psalms & Golden Clues: A brace(let) of clues for Strike 9,' Prof Groves discusses the psalm as charm:Charm first meant the incantation itself, and then the amulet that carried that incantation to protect the wearer and then – from the 19th century – the small ornamental trinkets, fastened to girdles, watch-chains and bracelets, that resembled those original, talismanic charms. This means that Rowling's clue-charm of a Psalm book (which can actually carry a sacred text) circles back beautifully to the original meaning of the word – in which a charm was an amulet carrying a holy text. These charms do not always hold texts but Rowling has confirmed that this one does: ‘The book is a psalm book and holds real, miniature psalms' I think this protective hinterland of charms make it likely that the specific psalm that such a psalm-book charm would carry would be the most comforting and talismanic of psalms – Psalm 23. This psalm famously describes the Lord's love as protective, even unto the valley of the shadow of death* John argues that, in addition to the 23rd Psalm, Psalm 90 (91 in Masoretic or KJV reckoning), the so-called ‘Soldier's Psalm' is at least as likely as an insert for this charm, which is to say, as a talisman a soldier might give a woman about to enter Hades to beg a gift from Persephone…The Head of Persephone Charm* Rowling's clarifying picture* Psyche's Last Task from Venus:One final task is then given to Psyche, one in which Psyche is commanded to bring back a bit of Persephone's beauty from the Underworld. In Greek mythology no living soul is meant to be able to enter the Underworld, let alone leave it, and so Aphrodite felt that she would be rid of Psyche once and for all. Indeed, it seemed that Aphrodite would be proved right, for Psyche's only idea about entering the Underworld was to kill herself. Before Psyche can commit suicide a voice whispers to her instructions about how to complete the task. Thus Psyche finds an entrance to the Underworld and is soon crossing the Acheron upon the skiff of Charon, and the princess even manages to gain an audience with Persephone. Persephone on the surface appears to be sympathetic to the quest of Psyche, but Psyche has been warned about accepting food or a seat in the palace of Hades, for both would bind her to the Underworld for all time. But eventually, Persephone gives Psyche a golden box, said to contain some of the goddess' beauty.* The Head of Persephone charm is paired with the Psalter on the ninth and last link; again, if the Psalm is 22 (23) or 90 (91), then the connection is an invocational prayer for help traveling through the “valley of death,” for protection from the “asp and basilisk,” the “lion and dragon.”* As above, note that the beginning, middle, and end of the bracelet feature clasped objects, with the Psalter being a codex that opens and Psyche's journey to Persephone is in pursuit of a “golden box” containing the means to otherworldly beauty.

Episode 203: We now stay in the world of the Elizabethan interpretation of classical history and myth with Ben Jonson's next play ‘Sejanus His Fall'. Rooted more firmly in history than myth Jonson's play uses the story of a power struggle motivated by personal ambition to look at the nature of power, justice and politics. This was quite evidently dangerous ground for a playwright already known for his clashes with the authorities, but it was not just that commentary of contemporary politics that got Jonson into trouble with this play. A brief word on the unfinished tragedy ‘Mortimer His Fall'The ‘argument' of the play and some thoughts on what the play might have beenThe early performance history of ‘Sejanus His Fall'The possible co-author of the playThe early reception of the playThe background to the poor reception of the playA synopsis of the playThe ban on satires and historiesThe translations of Tacitus and complications with EssexHow John Heyward's problems with censorship influence the playThe play as a commentary on Elizabethan societyQuestions of the control of power in the playQuestions of the application of justice in the playThe motivations of SejanusThe aesthetic issues with the playHow Jonson mixed comedy and tragedy in the playThe influence of Marlowe on the verse in the playJonson censured for the playThe later performance history of the playSupport the podcast at:www.thehistoryofeuropeantheatre.comwww.patreon.com/thoetpwww.ko-fi.com/thoetp Hosted on Acast.

I spoke to Stephen earlier in this Shakespeare and Jonson season to discuss his book ‘Poor Naked Wretches' which examines the way Shakespeare portrayed working people and their significance in the plays. For his next published work Stephen has produced a work that examines Berthold Brecht's lifelong obsession with Shakespeare and which makes the case for reading the two playwrights together. This is part of the Arden Performance Companion series so is slanted towards practical suggestions about how performance of Shakespeare can be achieved through Brechtian techniques.Link to Stephen's website: www.stephenunwin.ukLink to online retailers for ‘Shakespeare and Brecht':Bloomsbury UK: https://www.bloomsbury.com/uk/shakespeare-and-brecht-9781350419612/Bloomsbury US: https://www.bloomsbury.com/us/shakespeare-and-brecht-9781350419636/Amazon UK: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Shakespeare-Brecht-Practical-Performance-Companions/dp/1350419613/ref=asc_df_1350419613Amazon US: https://www.amazon.com/Shakespeare-Brecht-Practical-Performance-Companions/dp/1350419613/ref=sr_1_1Support the podcast at:www.thehistoryofeuropeantheatre.comwww.patreon.com/thoetpwww.ko-fi.com/thoetp Hosted on Acast.

Episode 198:As Ben Jonson was writing ‘The Poetaster' in 1601 the Elizabethan age was drawing to a close. Elizabeth would live until March 1603, but by 1601 any hope of a natural heir was long past and her court and councillors were playing a waiting game and with different degrees of secrecy were trying to manipulate the situation over the accession to their own advantage. Jonson, I'm sure, had an eye and an ear on those politics, but the comedy he was writing was more concerned with the politics of the theatre than those in the court. In the previous episode on ‘Cynthia's Revels' and in my episodes on Thomas Dekker, that you can still find on the podcast archive, I have touched on ‘the war of the poets' and this episode on ‘The Poetaster' will bring these matters to a close.

Zach Jonson, senior portfolio manager at Stack Financial Management, says the stock market is facing a trifecta of bear-market risks that could lead to "one of the great bear markets of our lifetime," with losses surpassing 40 percent and lasting for as long as 18 months when it finally bursts. Despite that, he says there are ways to "invest through it," and that's precisely what he is doing, because despite bubble conditions, there are pockets of value and there could still be a lot of market upside until the inevitable pop of this balloon. But the talk starts today with an interview recorded at Wednesday's Active Investment Company Alliance Fall Round Table in New York City, with David Tepper of Tepper Capital Management revisiting past selections of some classic funds he has held for years and their prospects for the future, plus his outlook on the potential dangers of private credit, what he is worried about if the economy turns and more. Charles Rotblut, vice president of the American Association of Individual Investors, discusses the latest AAII Sentiment Survey, which showed that bearish sentiment was actually decreasing as the market pulled back from record highs, and how high levels of bearish sentiment — which the market has seen for the last year — are part of what lets Wall Street climb the proverbial "Wall of Worry." In the Market Call, Daniel Dusina, director of investments at Blue Chip Partners, talks about how he goes about finding "unappreciated quality" at a time when the market itself has appreciated to near record levels.

Jeremy uses the opportunity given to him to use the house as the headquarters for fraudulent acts. He transforms himself into 'Captain Face', and enlists the aid of Subtle, a fellow conman and Dol Common, a prostitute. In The Alchemist, Jonson unashamedly satirizes the follies, vanities and vices of mankind, most notably greed-induced credulity. People of all social classes are subject to Jonson's ruthless, satirical wit. He mocks human weakness and gullibility to advertising and to "miracle cures" with the character of Sir Epicure Mammon, who dreams of drinking the elixir of youth and enjoying fantastic sexual conquests. The Alchemist focuses on what happens when one human being seeks advantage over another. In a big city like London, this process of advantage-seeking is rife. The trio of con-artists - Subtle, Face and Dol - are self-deluding small-timers, ultimately undone by the same human weaknesses they exploit in their victims.

Episode 187:This episode is both an ending and a beginning. An ending because it is the last of the recent run of consecutive guest episodes – next time we will be returning to Shakespeare, Jonson and their plays – but it is also the first of what I hope will be a series of guest episodes attached to each of the very significant Shakespeare plays that are coming up soon. With the very well-known and arguably greatest of Shakespeare's plays the task of providing some meaningful commentary is, I have found, very daunting, so I thought it would be a good idea to have another view on these plays to bring another perspective to them besides my own. I am also keen for those views to be born from the practical experience of producing the plays and understanding them from an actor's perspective and therefore as a result of close exploration of the text.

Episode 178:Ben Jonson's humours play 'Every Man in His Humour' was a big success and Jonson chose to name his next comedy in a very similar way, just substituting ‘in' for ‘out', no doubt to capitalise on the success of the earlier play by letting the public know that this was going to be a play in a very similar vein, and although there are no points where the plots or characters cross over during the plays the humour and satire are similar. However, there are also some significant differences between the two plays with the latter offering being more complex structurally and even less reliant on a plot that it's predecessor.The early performance history of the play and it's receptionThe dating of the playThe early print history of the playThe amendments in the first folio versionA Synopsis of the plotThe framing deviceMacalente the malcontentCarlo Buffone and the drinking gameSogliardo the stoogeDelerio and FalaceFastidious Brisk, his wardrobe and FungosoThe strange inclusion of Sordidio, the miserly farmerPuntovolo, his wife, his dog and his catThe fate of Puntovolo's dogThe language style of the playThe Italian setting of the playThe war of the theatresWhy was the play less successful than it's predecessor?Support the podcast at:www.thehistoryofeuropeantheatre.comwww.patreon.com/thoetpwww.ko-fi.com/thoetp Hosted on Acast.

Episode 176:In ‘Every Man In His Humour' Jonson pays a debt to Roman comedy, but also shows us, in an almost fully formed way, his very own style. This is not the biting satire of many of his plays, but something a little gentler in that he is not taking aim at specific people and certainly not at the court, as he was to do later. ‘Every Man in His Humour' is a city comedy with it's large cast of London characters and it is they, as a group, who are Jonson's target on this occasion.

Episode 174:Ben Jonson's erliest play. Here we have the bricklayer's son trying to make his way in the theatre and with the court. Until James came to the throne, he was pretty unsuccessful in the latter and as far as we can tell more of less from the off his life writing for the public theatre was controversial. I recounted the events surrounding Johnson and Nashe's play ‘The Isle of Dogs' as part of Jonson's life story and ‘The Case Is Altered' probably pre-dates those events. What we can be sure of is that by 1597, the most likely date for ‘The Case Is Altered' Jonson was working for Pembroke's Men and that they probably performed the play in May or June that year.The complications of the printing history of the playThe origins of the titleJonson borrows from Plautus to create a romantic comedyThe satire of Anthony MundayA brief summary of both strands of the plotThe structural issues with the play and purely comic scenesThe theory of the HumorsThe character of Count FernezeThe character of Jacques the miserThe concealment of the goldThe slight characters of the three female rolesSupport the podcast at:www.thehistoryofeuropeantheatre.comwww.patreon.com/thoetpwww.ko-fi.com/thoetp Hosted on Acast.

Satire is a funny, aggressive, and largely oppositional literature which is typically created by people who refuse to participate in a given regime's perception of itself. Although satire has always been a primary literature of state affairs, and although it has always been used to intervene in ongoing discussions about political theory and practice, there has been no attempt to examine this fascinating and unusual literature across the full chronological horizon. In State of Ridicule: A History of Satire in English Literature (Princeton University Press, 2025), Dr. Dan Sperrin provides the first ever longue durée history of political satire in British literature. He traces satire's many extended and discontinuous trajectories through time while also chronicling some of the most inflamed and challenging political contexts within which it has been written.Dr. Sperrin begins by describing the Roman foundations and substructures of British satire, paying particularly close attention to the core Roman canon: Horace, Persius, and Juvenal. He then proceeds chronologically, populating the branches of satire's family tree with such figures as Chaucer, Jonson, Dryden, Swift, Pope, and Dickens, as well as a whole series of writers who are now largely forgotten. Satire, Dr. Sperrin shows, can be a literature of explicit statements and overt provocation—but it can also be notoriously indirect, oblique, suggestive, and covert, complicated by an author's anonymity or pseudonymity. Dr. Sperrin meticulously analyses the references to transient political events that may mystify the contemporary reader. He also presents vivid and intriguing pen portraits of the satirists themselves along the way. Dr. Sperrin argues that if satire is to be contended with and reflected upon in all its provocative complexity—and if it is to be seen as anything more than a literature of political vandalism—then we must explore the full depth and intrigue of its past. This book offers a new starting point for our intellectual and imaginative contact with an important and fascinating kind of literature. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.
