Sinopse

Jester Role explores the captivating history of court jesters, revealing their significant role beyond mere entertainment. These "licensed fools" wielded surprising influence, using humor as a tool for social commentary and political critique. One intriguing aspect is how jesters acted as a social safety valve, diffusing tension and even challenging norms within the rigid social hierarchy of historical courts. Their jokes and performances were sophisticated means of navigating complex power dynamics.

 
The book examines how jesters shaped political discourse, influencing policy and mediating conflicts. It traces the evolution of comedic license, showing how the boundaries of acceptable humor shifted over time. The approach is supported by historical evidence from court records, literature, and art.

 
The book progresses by first introducing the concept of the licensed fool, then analyzing their role as a social safety valve, followed by their involvement in political discourse, and finally, tracing the evolution of comedic license.

 
This book offers a unique perspective by emphasizing the jester's agency and impact, rather than simply viewing them as passive entertainers. It's valuable for those interested in history and the performing arts, providing a deeper understanding of social control and political discourse through the lens of licensed humor and satire.

     Emily and I combined our powers once again to discuss Jo's and Friedrich's relationships and Louisa May Alcott's attraction toward intelligence. When Friedrich gives feedback to Jo, Jo appreciates it, because she wants to develop as a writer. Friedrich Bhaer is based on philosopher Henry David Thoreau. Louisa was in love with him and he appears in literal disguise in all of her novels. He is also based on Alcott's favourite writer, the German poet Goethe. Unlike Greta Gerwig that lies to millions of people, Jo and Friedrich never argue in the book, and Friedrich is the one who helps her to become a writer. He literally gives the same advice to Jo, as Goethe inspired LMA to improve as a writer. Laurie is partially based on Alcott's ex, Laddie Wisniewski, and her friend Alf Whitman. She had a maternal relationship with both of these men who were younger than she. One of the goals of the Little Women podcast is to examine these relationships, and how (several) Little Women adaptations ignore their significance. 
    Here´s what listeners have said about the Little Women podcast: 
    rotten Tiger 
    What a beautiful podcast! It’s so insightful and entertaining. It understands the characters perfectly (especially Laurie), I love it 
    Jen 
    As a long-time, die-hard Little Women fan, I LOVE this podcast! I stumbled upon it while doing research for a book series I was working on, and I am addicted! Niina is super knowledgeable in all things LW, from the book(s) to the movies and author Louisa May Alcott’s real life. I love that the discussions are based on the book and highlight the differences (sometimes controversial) between the original and newer adaptations. Highly recommended for anybody who loves getting lost in the world of Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy March.

    Resisters - How Ordinary Jews...

    Wolf Gruner

    Drawing on twelve years of research in dozens of archives in Austria, Germany, Israel, and the United States, this book tells the story of five Jewish people—a merchant, a homemaker, a real estate broker, and two teenagers—who bravely resisted persecution and defended themselves in Nazi Germany. These stories have not been told until now, and each case is one of many, as Gruner shows by resurfacing similar accounts of Jewish refusal to accept persecution and violence in Germany and Austria between 1933 and 1943, upending the notion of passive Jews, and expanding the concept of resistance. 
     
     
      
    Each individual described here represents a category of resistance: written opposition, oral protest, contesting Nazi propaganda, defiance of anti-Jewish laws and measures, and self-defense against physical attacks. Many of these courageous acts resulted in the resisters being prosecuted and put on trial, and often receiving harsh punishments, while some led to acquittal by courts and others to changes in Nazi policies. Taken together, these accounts reframe our understanding of German Jewish attitudes during the Holocaust, while also providing an astonishing examination of the complex Nazi reactions to the many individual acts of Jewish resistance.
