Download or read book A History of Evil in Popular Culture written by Sharon Packer MD and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2014-07-15 with total page 704 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evil isn't simply an abstract theological or philosophical talking point. In our society, the idea of evil feeds entertainment, manifests in all sorts of media, and is a root concept in our collective psyche. This accessible and appealing book examines what evil means to us. Evil has been with us since the Garden of Eden, when Eve unleashed evil by biting the apple. Outside of theology, evil remains a highly relevant concept in contemporary times: evil villains in films and literature make these stories entertaining; our criminal justice system decides the fate of convicted criminals based on the determination of their status as "evil" or "insane." This book examines the many manifestations of "evil" in modern media, making it clear how this idea pervades nearly all aspects of life and helping us to reconsider some of the notions about evil that pop culture perpetuates and promotes. Covering screen media such as film, television, and video games; print media that include novels and poetry; visual media like art and comics; music; and political polemics, the essays in this book address an eclectic range of topics. The diverse authors include Americans who left the United States during the Vietnam War era, conservative Christian political pundits, rock musicians, classical linguists, Disney fans, scholars of American slavery, and experts on Holocaust literature and films. From portrayals of evil in the television shows The Wire and 24 to the violent lyrics of the rap duo Insane Clown Posse to the storylines of the Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter books, readers will find themselves rethinking what evil is—and how they came to hold their beliefs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sunlight, oh how its warmth and soft radiance provides visibility and a pretend sense of safety against the night and the fiendish beasts who roam in the devilry of the darkest shadows…. A shy, bookish female sitting across from you on the bus—her satiny hair in a tight bun, those big, pretty eyes glancing nervously up at you from behind a pair of thick lenses, then a delicate draw of her lips shaping an uncertain smile on her plain yet elusively beautiful face when she notices you staring. You look away worrying she might suspect you’re a pervert who wants to do her harm. Yet WHEN NIGHT DARKENS THE STREETS this same trepid woman walks confidently down the front steps of her apartment building wearing lots of makeup and a skintight outfit made of leather and lace with her feet squeezed inside a pair of stiletto heels. Her seductive figure slinks through the night, hurrying across the cooling pavement in search for prey. A streetlamp casts its light on her clutch bag and she pulls it hard against her body as she scurries back into the darkness where her wicked secrets are invited and safe. And for now only she knows about the large straight razor hidden inside the purse—its cutting edge stained with the blood of past victims. Consider the local soul-caring priest who wishes you a blessed day or the middle-aged woman working at the grocery checkout counter who is always friendly and helpful. Regard the mailman who has reliably delivered letters and packages for decades to your doorstep or the neighbor who routinely smiles and waves each morning while helping his young daughter inside the car before heading out to school. Now heed the hundreds of individuals around you milling about in the sunlight—civil and sane. What demons transform when the veil of darkness arrives and the streets blacken? What stories of terror and bloodshed will unfold?.... WHEN NIGHT DARKENS THE STREETS….

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tom's mundane existence underwent a profound transformation when he discovered the extraordinary potential of his newfound ability. Dreams became the vivid canvas for his imagination, offering a realm where he could soar through the skies, converse with talking animals, and embark on incredible adventures. Unbeknownst to him, this revelation marked only the inception of a journey that would blur the lines between the waking world and the enchanting domain of dreams. As Tom delved deeper into the fantastical dreamscape, he encountered beings that defied the laws of nature. Majestic, winged lions left trails of sparkling stardust in their wake, while friendly sprites flitted between the branches of luminescent trees, their laughter echoing like wind chimes. In the Dreamer's Chamber, where dreams intertwined in a delicate dance, Tom sensed a disturbance. The ethereal Dream Keepers reflected concern, revealing a looming threat—The Dream Thief, a dark echo born from forgotten nightmares, harboured malevolent intentions to exploit children's dreams. On a crisp afternoon, bathed in golden sunlight streaming through the library's windows, Tom was drawn to an unexplored section. In a forgotten corner where time seemed to slow, he discovered a peculiar book—a tome unlike any other. Nestled between weathered spines and forgotten tales, the enigmatic Dreamer's Code awaited. The library, once a familiar haven, transformed into a portal to the unknown as Tom deciphered ancient symbols, embarking on a magical adventure where the ordinary converged with the extraordinary. Each page of the cryptic tome revealed not just symbols, but a narrative woven into the fabric of dreams—the forgotten prophecy. In the glow of a single candle, Tom read about a time when dreams held the power to shape reality. The prophecy spoke of a chosen Dreamer destined to traverse the Dream Realm and restore balance disrupted by encroaching darkness. As night fell, Tom found himself drawn back into the mystical embrace of "The Boy Called Dreamer." The prophecy's words resonated with the symbols he had deciphered, realizing that he was the chosen Dreamer fated to embark on a quest beyond the waking world. The weight of destiny settled on Tom's young shoulders, eliciting a mix of excitement and trepidation. The Dream Realm unfolded before Tom like a canvas painted with the hues of imagination—enchanted landscapes adorned with floating islands of cotton candy clouds and rivers sparkling with starlight wishes. Amidst this dreamscape, three radiant figures emerged—Lumara, Zephyr, and Whisper, the Dream Keepers. Lumara embodied the hopes within every dream, Zephyr symbolized the freedom of flight, and Whisper held the secrets lurking in dream shadows. Now, the once-enchanted Dream Realm faced imminent peril, and Tom, as the chosen Dreamer, bore the weight of preserving its existence amidst encroaching shadows.
