Download or read book Mirroring Evil written by Jewish Museum (New York, N.Y.) and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mirroring Evil: Nazi Imagery/Recent Art features the work by thirteen internationally recognized artists who use imagery from the Nazi era to explore the nature of evil. Their works are a radical departure from previous art about the Holocaust, which centered on tragic images of victims. Instead, these artists dare to invite the viewer into the world of the perpetrators. The viewer, therefore, faces an unsettling moral dilemma: How is one to react to these menacing and indicting images, drawn from a history that can never be forgotten? The artists represented in Mirroring Evil impel us to examine what these images of Nazism might mean in our lives today. Essays in the catalogue explore themes of moral ambiguity in makers and viewers of art, institutional responsibility in exhibiting controversial artworks, and the complicated issues of representing or even imagining the perpetrators. Entries about the individual artworks discuss in greater depth the artistic, ethical, and historical complexity of the images that the artists dare to engage.

  • Publisher : State University of New York Press
  • Release : 2011-12-01
  • ISBN : 1438439539
  • Pages : 226 pages

Download or read book Dark Mirrors written by Andrei A. Orlov and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2011-12-01 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dark Mirrors is a wide-ranging study of two central figures in early Jewish demonology—the fallen angels Azazel and Satanael. Andrei A. Orlov explores the mediating role of these paradigmatic celestial rebels in the development of Jewish demonological traditions from Second Temple apocalypticism to later Jewish mysticism, such as that of the Hekhalot and Shi'ur Qomah materials. Throughout, Orlov makes use of Jewish pseudepigraphical materials in Slavonic that are not widely known. Orlov traces the origins of Azazel and Satanael to different and competing mythologies of evil, one to the Fall in the Garden of Eden, the other to the revolt of angels in the antediluvian period. Although Azazel and Satanael are initially representatives of rival etiologies of corruption, in later Jewish and Christian demonological lore each is able to enter the other's stories in new conceptual capacities. Dark Mirrors also examines the symmetrical patterns of early Jewish demonology that are often manifested in these fallen angels' imitation of the attributes of various heavenly beings, including principal angels and even God himself.

  • Author : Amos Goldberg
  • Publisher : Berghahn Books
  • Release : 2015-05-01
  • ISBN : 1782386203
  • Pages : 383 pages

Download or read book Marking Evil written by Amos Goldberg and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2015-05-01 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Talking about the Holocaust has provided an international language for ethics, victimization, political claims, and constructions of collective identity. As part of a worldwide vocabulary, that language helps set the tenor of the era of globalization. This volume addresses manifestations of Holocaust-engendered global discourse by critically examining their function and inherent dilemmas, and the ways in which Holocaust-related matters still instigate public debate and academic deliberation. It contends that the contradiction between the totalizing logic of globalization and the assumed uniqueness of the Holocaust generates continued intellectual and practical discontent.

Book Monsters in the Mirror

Download or read book Monsters in the Mirror written by Sara Buttsworth and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2010-08-31 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection provides readers with a comprehensive overview of postwar representations of Nazism in popular culture, documenting and critiquing their enormous impact and importance. From Charlie Chaplin's The Great Dictator to the depiction of Nazis in the Raiders of the Lost Ark to other various literature, comic books, video games, television programs, and pop music, Nazism has maintained a constant presence in popular culture after World War II. Why are representations of Nazism—which are often used to depict the ultimate expression of human evil—so entrenched in our culture? Each chapter in this book examines this multifaceted topic from different angles, highlighting the different incidences of Nazistic representations in the post-1945 period. The diverse subject matter in this text ranges from analysis of recent allo-historical novels, to the music of the "neo-folk" movement, to fetishes and pornography. Readers will gain insight on how the imagery and symbology of Nazism in popular culture has changed over time and understand how the disconnect between representations of Nazism and the historical record have developed, particularly with regard to the genocide that resulted from Nazi politics.

Book Mirror Man

Download or read book Mirror Man written by Ronald A.Fenn and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2011-07-20 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is a compilation of short vignettes describing certain seen observations from the point of view of one living in an unreal environment and unreal reality except for sometimes far too much of both. It tries to explain through a mental split of thinking the disorder of being black and white on a red and white flag which the flag of Nigeria was used to make a new flag for a young nation at peace. Some of the book is autobiographical and some more involved in detailed analysis of control by technology and the human animal Man. It may seem to be rather complex and hard to read but one must understand I wrote the book in a psychiatric hospital being brainwashed to get back on my feet again. It spans a life time of observation in the nation of Canada as seen through an african who is white blinded by so many mindsets about colour and race and origins. Leaving everything behind that was most precious in Africa I have had to live this nation s reality as my own sight seen or unseen often misplaced or taken for granted or isolated and or used and abused.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To sum up: A witch out for revenge curses a once-beautiful mirror that stands proudly in the market square. This changes everything in the normally calm town of Eldoria in a strange way. Everyone loves this beautiful mirror, but it changes into a dangerous portal to a scary and dark world. It's the start of an exciting adventure that tries the limits of bravery, love, and the unwavering will of good over evil. One starry night, Alex's brave and loyal favorite, Jamie, goes missing for no obvious reason, upsetting the peace of the villagers. People who saw it say that a scary shadow pulled Jamie into the cursed mirror. Alex, who is sad but determined, takes the brave step to enter the mirror's evil realm, which starts an amazing trip to save Jamie from evil. Alex asks Eldoria's wise elder for help because he knows how bad things are, and the elder gives them a special amulet. This charm is a sign of hope and show that the people in the village believe in their goal because it might protect Alex from the witch's evil spell. Alex looks at himself in the mirror. The hopes of the town and the amulet around their necks. The world outside the mirror is very different from how warm and bright Eldoria is. Along Alex's path, there are many problems that test their strength at every turn. From the scary River of Reflections, which shows Alex's worst fears, to the mysterious Forest of Whispers, where trees talk to each other through puzzles, each obstacle brings them closer to Jamie while also pulling them deeper into the darkness. At the Witch's Lair, a castle filled with darkness and hate, and the Mountain of Fire, where demons dance in the flames, Alex's strength and the magical amulet's power are put to the test. At the end of the book, there is a dramatic fight of wills between Alex and the witch. Alex is stronger because she loves Jamie so much and Eldoria and she are both hopeful. Because he is strong, determined, and has the power of the amulet, Alex breaks the curse and breaks the crystal that blocks Jamie. So, they go back to Eldoria together. Their love and the village's newfound unity shine like lights of hope, showing the beauty of the world through the free mirror once more. The story takes place in the magical town of Eldoria and is a vivid account of bravery, love's victory over evil, and the unchanging power of good over evil. It will leave an indelible mark on everyone who sees the end of the trip. Chapter 1: The Haunted Mirror In the quiet town of Eldoria, everyone was drawn to a mirror. It wasn't just any mirror standing tall and proud in the marketplace; it was the most beautiful mirror in the whole town. The glass inside shone in the sun, showing how happy the people who walked by it every day also were. The frame was made out of gold. Adults would smile and straighten their clothes or fix their hats as they looked at their images. Kids, on the other hand, would laugh as they made funny faces at them. The people who lived there thought the mirror was a sign of happiness and beauty. A strange thing did happen, though, one day. A witch thought it was time to get back at people who had hurt her in the past. She had been planning her revenge for years and waiting for the right time to get angry. The village's most valuable mirror gave her a chance. Under the cover of darkness, she crept into the market square with a sparkle in her eyes. She swore at the mirror and said mean things in a whisper. The mirror, which used to be very bright and shiny, turned cold and scary, and the air around it cracked with evil energy. From that day on, the mirror was no longer a source of happiness and beauty. Instead, it changed into a doorway to a terrible and dark world. The people went back to the glass because they didn't know it was cursed, but they couldn't see themselves in the reflections. In the mirror, they saw horrifying, twisted versions of their own faces that were full of pain and sorrow. Even worse, some of the peasants who looked into the mirror for too long disappeared. The cursed glass ate them up, and they were locked up in the dark land beyond. The village's happiness quickly turned to fear. People were telling their kids to stay away from Eldoria's once-bustling market center because it was so quiet there. The pretty mirror, which used to be the pride of the hamlet, stood empty and alone, a scary reminder of the witch's wrath. There was still hope, though. One of the kids in the town was brave. He was a little kid with courage in his heart and determination in his mind. They couldn't stand the thought of leaving this child behind in that dark world where a close friend had died because of the cursed glass. They had to make the hard choice to go on a dangerous trip to break the curse and free their friend and anyone else who might have been captured. It was clear to the child that the trip would be dangerous. They would have to face the evil forces that lived in the dark world of the mirror and get through tough situations that would test how brave and determined they were. But his love for his friend made them stronger, as did their determination to make Hamlet happy again. They took a deep breath and a calm heart as they walked up to the cursed mirror. They were ready to face whatever was on the other side and break free from the witch's evil grip. From this point on, an epic journey would begin that would show bravery, friendship, and the fight between good and evil. It would be a long and hard trip for the kid, but they would not be alone. They would be guided by the town's spirit, their friend's love, and the hope of all the people who had died because of the mirror's curse. Their final goal was to break the curse and make the mirror shine again as a symbol of beauty and joy in the heart of Eldoria. Chapter 2: The Disappearing The pretty town of Eldoria had a market square with a mirror that stood for the community's pride. It was surrounded by green hills and trees that whispered. This wasn't just any mirror; it was a stunning work of art, framed in fine silverwork with delicate patterns that sparkled in the soft sunlight. Kids would often stop and laugh at their own reflections, and adults would look and respect the skill that went into making them. It was a sign of peace and beauty that matched the lively way of life in Eldoria and among its people. But one terrible day, the peace was broken when a witch, still angry at the people for an offense long forgotten, chose to put a deadly spell on the valuable mirror. In the past, the mirror was a source of beauty. But when the witch whispered old curses in the dark, black, ominous clouds gathered around its shiny surface, turning it into a scary entrance to a world of darkness. The witch's laughter could be heard all through the night after the spell was over and the mirror was changed forever. The next morning, when everyone in the area met in the market square, they saw that the beloved mirror had turned a scary shade of green. The relaxed days of reflection were over, and in their place was a doorway to a strange realm. The surface of this realm no longer showed off Eldoria's beauty, but instead seemed to lure people who weren't careful. The locals began to whisper with fear and discomfort as they thought about what had happened to their valuable mirror. They didn't know that the witch's curse had changed the mirror's look and given it a dark, evil power that could swallow anyone who looked too long into it. A fog grew over Eldoria as word spread about the mirror that was cursed. People left the market area because they were afraid of the evil they thought was there. It was once very busy. The mirror, which used to bring people together and make them happy, had turned into a scary sight that reminded Hamlet every day of the witch's revenge. Even though everyone was scared and worried, there was a small chance that the mirror could be fixed, and the curse would be lifted. The villagers had no idea how hard it would be to break the witch's spell or how brave and dedicated they would have to be. It would be a test to the very foundations of their community. A town called Eldoria that used to be calm was now in the middle of a war between light and darkness. The cursed mirror led them to a scary test that would decide their fate.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The occult seduces in many ways. It promises secret knowledge and magical powers. It teases of enlightenment and transformation. It enchants with mysteries and wonders. But therein lies the trap. Once the shiny bait is taken, the hook is pulled. The prey is left to slowly perish, gasping for breath in a metaphysical dream that has turned into a nightmare. The occult is nothing if not dangerous. It opens channels that are best left closed. It attracts entities that don’t play by the rules. And it demands more – always more – than what was bargained for. These true-life accounts reveal the heartache and horror that can occur when people participate in the occult – be it witchcraft, Ouija boards, white magic or black – and knowingly or not, release dark spirits into the human realm. Dabbler or devotee, it doesn’t matter how deeply one is committed or involved. Once evil is unleashed, it treats everyone the same: hellishly.
