Download or read book Monstrous Children and Childish Monsters written by Markus P.J. Bohlmann and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-03-25 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps because of the wisdom received from our Romantic forbears about the purity of the child, depictions of children as monsters have held a tremendous fascination for film audiences for decades. Numerous social factors have influenced the popularity and longevity of the monster-child trope but its appeal is also rooted in the dual concepts of the child-like (innocent, angelic) and the childish (selfish, mischievous). This collection of fresh essays discusses the representation of monstrous children in popular cinema since the 1950s, with a focus on the relationship between monstrosity and "childness," a term whose implications the contributors explore.
Download or read book Terrifying Texts written by Cynthia J. Miller and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2018-08-28 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Faust (1926) to The Babadook (2014), books have been featured in horror films as warnings, gateways, prisons and manifestations of the monstrous. Ancient grimoires such as the Necronomicon serve as timeless vessels of knowledge beyond human comprehension, while runes, summoning diaries, and spell books offer their readers access to the powers of the supernatural--but at what cost? This collection of new essays examines nearly a century of genre horror in which on-screen texts drive and shape their narratives, sometimes unnoticed. The contributors explore American films like The Evil Dead (1981), The Prophecy (1995) and It Follows (2014), as well as such international films as Eric Valette's Malefique (2002), Paco Cabeza's The Appeared (2007) and Lucio Fulci's The Beyond (1981).

Download or read book The Enigmatic Coat of Fathers An Engineer s Son s Emotional Journal written by Yeong Hwan Choi and published by epubli. This book was released on 2024-10-13 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Enigmatic Coat of Fathers : An Engineer's Son's Emotional Journal I am a writer. And ironically, I struggle with words. Despite publishing books, I often find more comfort in equations than in sentences. Perhaps it's because I come from a background in engineering and the sciences. This latest book, however, is about my father. Korean fathers, unlike their Western counterparts, are shaped by Confucian traditions. They are stoic, burdened with the weight of financial responsibility, and rarely express emotion. An emotionally detached son, like me, never truly understood his father. And now, this son is attempting to write about him. But much like the first paragraph of this text, this one also feels awkward. How can someone who neither understands the emotions of others nor expresses his own, write about family ties? It's a contradiction I live with every day. My father, every day as he left for work, wore a strange coat. And now, as his son—a man defined by an XY chromosome and an inability to grasp emotions—I find myself standing before his death, attempting to decipher our emotions through numbers and formulas. As you know, South Korea faces a grave demographic challenge, with low birth rates and an aging population. The youth are avoiding marriage, even shying away from relationships altogether. Why is that? Could it be, in some way, due to the "mysterious coat"? When I was young, Korean fathers seemed like towering mountains—imposing, distant, unapproachable. But when I faced my father's cold, lifeless body, why did those once-broad shoulders seem so small and frail? In this wheel of emotional contradictions, can we ever truly understand one another? This is the story of a son and his father, intertwined in the equations of pain and the waves of emotion. Have you solved the mystery yet?
