“You are lost if saints don't disgust you. Saintliness is systematic insomnia, the heart perpetually awake. Suppressing sleep is a confessed ambition: thus Peter of Alcantara, whom Teresa of Avila knew personally, and who was acclaimed as a saint while still alive, for forty years did not sleep for more than one and a half hour each night. Fasting and sleeplessness are required conditions for sainthood.
Tumblr media
Saintliness is a negative sort of perfection. I love life too much to attain it. Because of my reserves of health, I remain a heavenly interloper. There are illnesses that can only be treated with a good dose of divinity, but I prefer the alleviation of pain provided by earthly tranquilizers. I don't have the gift of infinite joy and pain which used to throw Saint Teresa of Avila and Angela da Foligno into ecstasy. I am healthy, that is I can stand and talk about God, not fall down at the very thought of him. What a heavy price one must pay for one's health!” - Emil Cioran, ‘Tears and Saints’ (1937) [page 60]

Radnóti Miklós: First Eclogue (1938)
Quippe ubi fas versum atque nefas: tot bella per orbem, tam multae scelerum facies... (Virgil)*
          Shepherd:
I have not seen you for long, did the call of the thrushes bring you?
          Poet:
The woods resound with their clatter, spring must be on its way!
          Shepherd:
It’s not spring yet, just the sky is teasing, look at that puddle, how mildly it smiles... but when it is locked up at night by the frost it will snarl! this is April, never be taken in by the fool – The little tulips are bitten by frost, just look, over there. Why are you so sad? would you like to have a rest on that rock?
          Poet:
I am not even sad, I have grown so used to this horrible world that sometimes it does not even hurt – it only disgusts me.
          Shepherd:
Indeed, I have heard that on the wild ridges of the Pyrenees, red-hot cannon argue among the corpses stiffened in blood, that the bears and the soldiers together flee that terrible place, that flocks of women and children and old folk run with their bundles and fling themselves to the ground when death circles overhead, and that there are so many dead that no-one can clear them away. ...I think you knew Frederico. Tell me, did he escape?
          Poet:
He did not escape. Two years ago now he was killed in Granada.
          Shepherd:
Garcia Lorca is dead! he is dead and no-one has told me! News of the war can travel so fast – and, just like that, a poet just disappears! but was he not mourned by Europe?
          Poet:
Mourned? No-one has noticed. And we are lucky if the wind, when it gropes through the pyre’s embers, remembers the odd broken line of a poem: that’s all of the work to be left to a frustrated future.
          Shepherd:
He did not escape. He is dead. Why, where could a poet run? For even dear Attila** did not escape, he just gestured his No to the rule of the world, and who mourns his destruction?... And how do you live these days? can your writing attract a response?
          Poet:
In the roar of the guns? Among smoking ruins, abandoned hamlets? Still, I go on with my writing and live in this crazy world like that oak over there: it knows it must fall, and although it bears the white cross that marks it out for the woodcutter’s axe tomorrow, it bears forth new leaves regardless while awaiting its fate. You’re fortunate, this place is calm, even wolves only seldom trouble you and you can forget that the flock which you tend belongs to another: it must have been some months since your master last came around. God bless you – must go – the night will be old before I reach home. The moth of the evening is fluttering, shedding the silver of dusk.
  1938
* Virgil, Georgics: “For here are right and wrong inverted; so many wars overrun the world, so many are the shapes of sin...” (English trans. H. Rushton Fairclough).  ** Attila József (1905-1937), Hungarian poet.

Halloween marathon 2022: 1
Yep, I’m starting super early this year. If people can start celebrating Christmas months in advance, then I can start getting spooky in August!
Night Must Fall (dir. Karel Reisz, 1964)
Tumblr media
This is a remake of the 1937 adaptation of the hit play. If you’re not familiar with the premise, it follows a wealthy dowager who hires a charming handyman named Danny. Danny is manipulative but charismatic-- and he may or may not be an axe murderer. Much of the play and the 1937 movie follow the efforts of the dowager’s niece Olivia as she tries to prove Danny’s guilt.
The play was an old chestnut by the 1960s, so when it came time for a remake, the story was changed a bit. Olivia was changed from a “spinster” living as a servant in her aunt’s house to her disillusioned stage actress daughter. Danny’s guilt was made plain from the start, creating a classic case of Hitchcock’s “bomb under the table” when he goes to work for the old woman. The remake also blends the thriller elements with the so-called “kitchen sink” realist dramas popular in Britain during the early 60s, focusing on the class divide between Danny and his employers.
At the time, the critics absolutely savaged the remake and audiences mostly stayed away. Even now, a lot of people see it as an embarrassing misfire for both star Albert Finney and director Karel Reisz.
Unpopular opinion: I liked this better than the 1937 version. Way better, actually.
Now before you buy a whole cart of rotten vegetables, let me explain. I liked the 1937 film fine. I thought Robert Montgomery was absolutely brilliant as the sociopathic killer. Unfortunately, the film around him lacks atmosphere, Richard Thorpe’s direction is flat, and the pacing drags at almost 2 hours.
The 1964 remake isn’t perfect, but it’s better paced and way more atmospheric. There is a tense, neurotic energy, even in the talkier scenes. The supporting characters are all dynamic and interesting. The suspense boils at a low point throughout the movie, slowly intensifying as it goes along-- you wonder when everything is just going to go to hell as it inevitably does.
Tumblr media
Albert Finney got a lot of crap from the critics for his performance as Danny, but I found him impressive. It’s fascinating to see all the different masks Danny wears around other people: he’s clownish with his girlfriend Dora (she keeps asking him to be serious about their relationship, especially since he’s impregnated her with no plans to marry her), affectionate and boyish with the lonely dowager (whose motherly affections for the young man uncomfortably blend with erotic fascination), and macho and seductive with the bored but passionate Olivia. That Danny is able to manipulate them all with ease and yet somehow have no center when he’s by himself-- I thought it was fascinating, especially since in the end his true self remains as much a mystery to the audience as it does the other characters.
Even the character’s appearance is brilliant: Finney wore a lot of makeup and styled his hair in a severe square, giving off the sense that Danny is an artificial person, constantly recreating himself depending on who his audience is at the time.
If I have any problems with the movie, it’s that the editing is sometimes abrupt, making certain story elements confusing. There was also one character whose subplot was kind of left hanging at the end of the movie and I wish she had been given more resolution. But still, I was hooked with this one. It deserves a reappraisal. Even if it isn’t a bonafide masterpiece, it’s still a solid reimagining of the original. i wish more remakes were this creative.

Research Project Draft & Notes
Working Title:
The urban fairy tale: 'A woman who walks at night'
Main topics:
Introduction – discuss the issue of walking at night for women and how it’s wrong that we must form ways to stay safe through passed down advice and coded language. Little to no education in staying safe and preventing people (particularly men) from creating environments we don’t feel safe to walk in.
Our biological relationship with the night (sleep, visibility) and the irony of it especially for women as it should be empowering, spiritual, safe
Visual culture throughout history that encouraged the idea that walking at night is unsafe and how it often results in violence against women (art, fairy tales, films)
Linking historical and modern-day instances of walking at night and crime against women to show how things still haven’t really changed (Jack the ripper to Sabina Nessa)
Modern day visual culture and merchandise used as a coded language between women to keep safe (posters, advertising, self-defence keychains, call Angela at pubs etc…)
Examples of modern-day interpretations of fairy tales that show a more realistic and feminist viewpoint as well as a mention of a variety of communities and services that are trying to make a change around these topics
Analysis of primary & secondary data/research – Focus on female responses and the coded languages
Summary of what has been taught throughout and the most effective changes and resources

Walt Disney’s Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs (1937) Directed by David Hand. Available at: Disney+ (Accessed 2022-2023)

Subtitle 1:
Fairy tales and the night
(A section about how fairy tales pathed women's perception of the night and its consequences - 611 words)
Throughout history fairy tales have been the foundation of fantastical storytelling, visual culture and setting moral compasses. They are typically stories told from generation to generation, and are derived from mythology, folklore, and legends that are supposed to help teach us to be ‘good people’. The reason fairy tales link to women’s navigational Independence is because they often include a female protagonist who finds themselves in danger once alone on their journey.
In Walt Disney’s animated film Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs 1937, (An adaptation of the Brothers Grimm’s book Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs 1812) there is a scene between 07:42 and 10:40 where Snow White is chased into a forest by the Evil Queen’s huntsman. This scene is significant because the threat of being killed immediately sends Snow White’s mind into a state of paranoia as everything within this forest becomes seemingly dark and dangerous. From tree branches clinging to the princess’s clothes, to eyes staring at her from the bushes. As a child this scene terrified me because at such a young age, I couldn’t comprehend that all these scary apparitions were just in Snow White’s head. Rewatching this scene as an adult, it’s nowhere near as scary. However, I do believe having seen this scene so young has had an everlasting impact on me. Even today when I’m walking alone outside at night, I feel this irrational sense of being watched and needing to be guarded. The knowledge of Snow White being hunted for her youth and beauty further highlights the potential harm it can have on developing young women because it can lead to females with these qualities feeling vulnerable and afraid in situations they shouldn’t. On the other hand, it could be argued that from a psychological viewpoint Snow White’s interpretation of fear is firstly accurate because it is possible to hallucinate when high on adrenaline. And secondly rational because there are actual dangers to being alone in a dark forest such as wild animals, low visibility of tripping and falling hazards, and characters of malevolent intentions (The Evil Queen).
Personally, I believe this fairy tale is one of many that illustrates a young woman navigating alone at night as an unnecessarily fearful experience. But with context, these fears are completely justified and are supported by the biological instinct to survive and be prepared for all scenarios, whether possible or not.
A short time after this scene Snow White finds sanctuary in the Seven Dwarfs cottage. I’ve always found this concept to be quite ironic as growing up we’ve always been taught about ‘stranger danger’, especially for females when it comes to men, and yet the princess finds herself in a confined place with seven male strangers. Of course, this societal belief that male strangers are more dangerous than female is completely stereotypical, however it’s interesting that Disney put Snow White in what would be considered such a scandalous situation during the 1930s. And made it seem ‘okay’ by characterising the dwarfs as seven charming protectors, keeping away all dangers of the forest and beyond.
In my opinion, the damsel in distress and the heroic male protector are character roles that are incredibly outdated in fairy tales. However, are still present in modern society as many women in the survey I sent out expressed having a familiar male companion accompany them on late night walks or come and collect them from a potentially dangerous situation. On the other hand, then it comes to seeking help from a stranger, women are more likely to opt for a female counterpart. This is evident in solely female services such as Lady Cabs and Ask for Angela.
(Compare to a modern retelling of snow white and/or another fairy tale & modern retelling like Little Red Riding Hood/My Bloody Chamber by Angela Carter?)

The Coded Languages of Nocturnal Travelling Women

TFL launched 'Zero Tolerance' Campaign Against Sexual Harassment (Rolled out Wednesday 27th October 2021 till now)
TfL Launches 'Zero Tolerance' Campaign Against Sexual Harassment | Londonist
Londoners think they have pointed out major blunder in police sexual harassment campaign on London Underground - MyLondon
New campaign launches to stamp out sexual harassment on public transport - Transport for London (tfl.gov.uk)
Tumblr media
See it. Say it. Sorted. - AML Group (aml-group.com)
As a young woman who commutes in the dark roughly five days a week, I have noticed a coded language appearing in everyday announcements, advertising, posters, and leaflets. Informing the public both on what is inappropriate behaviour, and the various ways you can get yourself out of those situations.
This coded language has been primarily evident on the London Underground trains and was first brought to my attention when they frequently announced and flashed above the heads of passengers sat opposite me; “If you see something that doesn’t look right, speak to staff or text British Transport Police on 61016. We’ll sort it. See it. Say it. Sorted.” Initially, I found the repetition of this announcement irritating as I found myself learning the entire script quite quickly, and sometimes couldn’t get the “See it. Say it. Sorted.” out of my head. However, upon reflection I’ve come to realise how intrusively brilliant the announcement is because, it has ensured I am aware of the services I can reach if I ever witness or become the victim of an uncomfortable and/or potentially dangerous situation.
In terms of origin, the “See it. Say it. Sorted” campaign unveiled at London Waterloo by Rail Minister (Paul Maynard MP) in November 2016 under Theresa May’s government. Self-proclaimed “strategic, creative and experience communications agency” AML Group had a huge part in creating the visuals of this campaign. The agency’s digital and printed posters boldly showing that famous five-word tagline in light blue, contrasting heavily with monochromatic illustrations of suspicious situations, in the style of the graphic Sin City novels. AML Group further claim “‘See it. Say it. Sorted.’ has appeared on 11,000 static and digital posters” and has “been broadcast as tannoy announcements across 5,000 stations and 13,000 trains. The campaign can now also be seen and heard on buses, trams, the London Underground, airports, and ferry terminals. But most importantly of all, texts and calls to British Transport police relating to suspicious circumstances have increased by 365% in the 3 years the campaign has been running.” These facts and statistics are reassuring for the public as they highlight how successful the expansion of the campaign within the UK’s Public transport has been, therefore making us feel more comfortable in reaching out to these services if they are needed in the future.
Overall, I believe the “See it. Say it. Sorted” campaign is a visually and audibly successful coded language for night travelling women like myself because the important information we might need is both eye catching and repetitive enough to be seen and remembered. I also think a lot of potential dangers follow us from the bustling safety of public transport and so being able to catch it and report it before continuing your journey alone could be the single factor that prevents sexual harassment or threat to life. Be that as it may, I do still have some reservations on how any of the information could be useful when walking alone at night specifically as they all seem to be linked to services solely linked to public transport (besides the police). Additionally, they could explore the imagery in a way that educates and deters potential offenders. For example, the images might demonstrate the life-long impacts of a victim, as well as the serious consequences (such as jail) the offenders may experience.
Another example of coded language is the #AskForAngela (#NoMore) Movement/Campaign launched by Inspector Hayley Crawford between 2012-2016 in Lincolnshire England. The #AskForAngela campaign was put in place to protect the public from unsafe situations in bars and pubs and was named by the Crawford in remembrance of Angela Crompton who was abused and killed by her husband and represents gender/sexuality orientated violence and abuse. On the Ask for Angela | Nottinghamshire Police Website page they feature an interview with Hayley Crawford where she describes what was going through her mind when she was working as a strategic lead for sexual violence and abuse for Lincolnshire County Council. Stating she started the scheme as part of a wider project to decrease sexual violence and abuse in the night-time economy.
"I was hearing of people meeting people from dating apps and having bad experiences".
"Angela was a good friend of my best friend and her murder devastated those who knew her".
“The scheme received so much positivity when it began in Lincolnshire and soon was replicated all over the United Kingdom and different parts of the world including the United States and Australia".

Sutton rating prediction will fear LFC followers forward of Man Metropolis conflict
Chris Sutton has tipped Manchester Metropolis to pile extra distress on Liverpool once they journey to Anfield on Sunday. The Reds have gained simply two of their opening eight Premier League video games and can fall 16 factors behind Pep Guardiola’s facet if they’re defeated on the weekend. Our 7-1 thrashing of Rangers within the Champions League on Wednesday night time will present a small confidence increase for the FA Cup champions however Sutton believes the Sky Blues are ‘too good’ for Jurgen Klopp’s males. “It’s arduous to make a case for Liverpool nonetheless being within the title race anyway, but when Metropolis go to Anfield and win then it truly is throughout for Jurgen Klopp’s facet; they might don’t have any likelihood,” he instructed BBC Sport. “Metropolis will know that, they usually know they might land a knockout blow. Erling Haaland was rested in midweek so he can be prepared – and I feel Metropolis are that good, they may wipe the ground with them. READ MORE: Ex-Manchester Metropolis man believes two stars ‘will attempt to get the very best of one another’ when Liverpool host Guardiola’s facet “Liverpool’s excessive line has been inflicting them issues anyway – Rangers had been in a position to get at them within the first half on Wednesday – in order that they must be very courageous to strive that in opposition to Haaland. “They may nonetheless create alternatives, due to the best way Metropolis are arrange, however if you take a look at each groups, Metropolis are simply too good. “Pep Guardiola’s facet scored 4 at Anfield in February 2021, and I feel they may match that. I virtually went for them to get 5, which Metropolis final managed there in 1937, however both approach this can be a walloping.” Earlier than the marketing campaign started, many anticipated us to as soon as once more tussle it out with Metropolis on the high of the Premier League desk however in all honesty that’s wanting not possible in the intervening time – we have already got an actual problem on our palms to complete within the high 4 by no means thoughts problem for high spot. With Erling Haaland now a Metropolis participant, Guardiola’s facet look much more harmful than they already had been and the Norwegian has 15 league objectives in 9 video games this time period. He’s a daunting expertise and we’ll want Virgil van Dijk at his excellent greatest on the weekend to try to hold him quiet. With the ability of the Anfield crowd behind the lads there’s no cause why we will’t snatch all three factors and actually kickstart our marketing campaign.

That includes Adriana being automatically put on Vil's team for Eurovision meets Coachella a continent-wide singing and dance competition alongside Epel in order to repay him for the room and board in his dorm. He claims that's the only way she can repay him for she has some gifts that even she isn't aware of...despite thinking that he is full of it.
As the day of the competition draws closer and closer, Adriana must contest with: a deranged cult leader, a sexist creep, personal relationship drama, strife between team members, a new job, and pulling Vil out from his self destructive spiral before it's too late.
