  Extreme North - A Cultural History

  Bernd Brunner

  • 0

  Scholars and laymen alike have long projected their fantasies onto the great expanse of the global North, whether it be as a frozen no-man's-land, an icy realm of marauding Vikings, or an unspoiled cradle of prehistoric human life. Bernd Brunner reconstructs the encounters of adventurers, colonists, and indigenous communities that led to the creation of a northern "cabinet of wonders" and imbued Scandinavia, Iceland, and the Arctic with a perennial mystique. 
   
   
   
  Like the mythological sagas that inspired everyone from Wagner to Tolkien, Extreme North explores both the dramatic vistas of the Scandinavian fjords and the murky depths of a Western psyche obsessed with Nordic whiteness. In concise but thoroughly researched chapters, Brunner highlights the cultural and political fictions at play from the first "discoveries" of northern landscapes and stories, to the eugenicist elevation of the "Nordic" phenotype (which in turn influenced America's limits on immigration), to the idealization of Scandinavian social democracy as a post-racial utopia. Brunner traces how crackpot Nazi philosophies that tied the "Aryan race" to the upper latitudes have influenced modern pseudoscientific fantasies of racial and cultural superiority the world over.

  This original hour-long audio documentary will take you in the footsteps of the 19th century’s most beloved and most played piano composer in the world : Frederic Chopin !  His compositions are reconfigured or remixed in many popular songs and are often heard in cinema as well as in the theater.The music of Frederic Chopin is part of our soundscape. Its humanity, its refinement and its modernity have enabled it to successfully cross over centuries. This great composer lived only 39 short years, during which he gave only a few rare concerts (which he hardly appreciated).So here we are going to discuss a relatively undocumented musical event (rich in anecdotes) : Frederic Chopin's concert at the Hotel de Ville in Rouen on the evening of March 12, 1838. Whether you are a music lover, passionate about history or simply of a curious temperament, I invite you to immerse yourself in this fascinating story, alone or with your family. The music terms have been simplified to the maximum to make the story accessible to as many people as possible.Have a good sound journey to the 19th century, don’t hesitate to share this original episode produced by the Safeguarding of the Acoustic Heritage (Sauvegarde du Patrimoine Acoustique) !

  In many ways, we've been telling the same stories, over and over, for the last 2300 years. This book will show you why, and how you can do it too. 
  For centuries, dramatic writers have relied on Aristotelian principles to write their stories for the screen and stage—the same stories you stream and watch today. But for the first time ever, the timeless principles from Aristotle’s esteemed Poetics have been adapted for novelists. 
  With succinct clarity, novelist Douglas Vigliotti shows you exactly how to write a novel using tried-and-true principles that have been used since antiquity to tell great stories. These principles are the foundation on which any story can be written. Whether you are writing your first or tenth novel, Aristotle for Novelists has something to offer any serious writer of fiction. It is both a challenge to writers to simplify their craft and a no-frills, impassioned outcry for novelists everywhere.

  "The Theory of Sexuality" by Sigmund Freud delves into the complexities of human sexual development and its profound impact on psychology. Freud introduces groundbreaking concepts such as the Oedipus complex, and the role of repression in shaping adult desires. He argues that sexuality evolves through distinct stages, influencing personality and emotional well-being. By examining controversial topics, Freud challenges societal norms, emphasizing unconscious drives. This foundational text bridges biology, culture, and psychology, offering insights into relationships, neuroses, and human behavior. Though provocative, it reshaped modern understandings of sexuality and remains central to psychoanalytic theory.
