Death Shadow

Despite Stoker's good fortune, he remained loyal to Irving, whose bad business practices and failing career eventually led the two men to abandon the Lyceum Theatre. Following Irving's death in 1905, Stoker--who had always been in the actor's shadow--was distraught. Stoker had a stroke shortly after Irving's death, which incapacitated him somewhat. At the end of his life, Stoker and his wife became increasingly poor, and he looked to others for assistance. At the same time, he continued to write

Dalloway.[29] According to Jane Goldman, Mrs. Dalloway “began life as a short story, “Mrs. Dalloway in Bond Street” (published in Dial in 1923), and was drafted under the working title The Hours.”[30] Woolf’s intention for this work was “to give life and death, sanity and insanity.

political prisoners waiting for their execution at the time of the Spanish Civil War and the Franco regime. One of the characters, Tom, tells Pablo Ibbieta of the impending death that awaits them, something that will catch them off guard: "I've already stayed up a whole night waiting for something. But this isn't the same: this [death, mortality] will creep up behind us, Pablo, and we won't be able to prepare for it" (8). There is the sense of an ill feeling, a disturbing sensation, a nausea of the spirit

Expressionism with films like the Cabinet of Dr.Caligari (1919) or Metropolis, gave the DOP's new possibilities to express themselves with hard light, with contrast and long shadows. Different lighting-styles became an important part of the film-language. The films became signed by a certain expression. Hollywood took this even further with the Film-noir films of the 40s and early 50s. To get enough light to the object, they

seven or eight years, I’ve experienced a number of painful losses, most significantly the death of introduction 13 my father in 2001 and the death of my friend and mentor Richard Carlson, author of Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff, in 2006. These were two of the most important men in my life. In each case, their passing was unexpected, shocking, and incredibly painful for me. I had dealt with the death of people close to me before, but after both my dad and Richard died, the level of grief I

struggle upwards towards the light. Man has in all ages been oppressed by many evils—by war, by tyranny, by materiality, by mental and moral darkness. He has sinned greatly, he has suffered greatly; he has been burdened with toil and surrounded by shadow, tormented by his rulers and misled by his priests. Paganism was merely material; Rome was strong, cruel, and repressive; 'a winding−sheet of the nations,' he calls her in Changement d'Horizon[2]; Judaism, his view of which must be sought rather in

you will be controlled by these three desires - even if you have already reached a high level in the martial arts. These three desires will distrort not only martial arts but humanity itself. When people are dying, there are two directions toward death: joy and suffering. Joy here means in a heavenly sense, and does not include pleasures or pastimes. Once this stage in life is reached, one will know one's real mission in life. Fourth, you should accept sorrows, sadness, or hatred as they are and
