Makoto shinkai weathering with you5/29/2023 In Japan, where it was released in 2016, it was a pop-culture phenomenon, grossing more than any domestic film ever, save for Hayao Miyazaki’s Spirited Away. Shinkai, who has directed six animated features since 2004, became an international sensation with Your Name, which broke global box-office records for anime in 2017. But what makes it truly fascinating is the story in the background: a quiet climate apocalypse that the characters are mostly intent on ignoring until it’s too late. Makoto Shinkai’s Weathering With You is a tale of awkward teenagers finding each other and falling in love amid all sorts of trials and tribulations-a specialty for the filmmaker, whose smash hit Your Name made him one of Japan’s leading voices in animation. As Earth’s climate continues to change for the worse, a peculiar little subgenre of science fiction, the environmental allegory, is due for a cinematic resurgence.

Fox's Book of Martyrs by John Foxe5/28/2023 Because so many English Protestants were martyred during Mary’s reign, Foxe felt the need to add to his work to include more recent history. In Switzerland, Foxe published a work on martyrs of the early church, first in Latin (1554) and then in English (1563). However, when the Roman Catholic Mary I (“ Bloody Mary,” 1516-1558) came to power, Foxe fled to Europe where he began working as a printer. When Edward VI (1537-1553), who was sympathetic to Protestantism, came to the throne, Foxe was able to move about publicly. He turned to tutoring to earn a living and had to live in hiding for a while. When he finally and publicly embraced Protestantism, he was denounced as a heretic by the college, lost his fellowship, and was disowned by his family. Foxe studied the Scriptures as well as the writings of the early church fathers. Foxe began researching church history to help him better understand the controversies regarding the Catholic Church and the Reformation (see “Sketch of the Author” in Foxe’s Book of Martyrs, Create Space Independent Publishing, 2017, p. His first literary endeavors were in poetry and Latin comedies. As a youth, Foxe’s brilliance was recognized, and at Oxford University he earned a master’s degree and a fellowship (similar to a modern scholarship) at Magdalen College. John Foxe (also spelled Fox, 1516-1587) was an English Puritan preacher and church historian.

The black swan taleb summary5/28/2023 He calls himself a ‘ sceptical-empiricist and a flaneur reader, someone committed to getting very deep into an idea’, but tells people at cocktail parties that he is a limo driver.Īfter growing up in Lebanon during its civil war, he began working in finance in the US during the heady days of the 1980s Economic nous, combined with luck (don’t discount it!), allowed NNT to make what he calls enough “f*ck-you money” to essentially be able to give up his day job. Nassim Nicholas Taleb (NNT, as he refers to himself) is a true punk. But, like punk (and with apologies to The Clash, of course), they’re all style and no substance. They’re the punks of the book industry, all multi-coloured mohawks and big boots, making lots of noise. Large, bold, black font on bright orange or yellow backgrounds.
