![]() Of course, it's worth noting that Fëanor set most of the events of LotR in motion – without his acumen, the epic tapestry that unfolds across Middle-earth could have gone very differently. ![]() ![]() The path of the Silver Elves is that of Love and Magic and they share their way with all sincerely interested individuals. He was a terrible brother and brought significant turmoil to his people with the Oath of Fëanor, but these contradictions only make his character even more compelling. The Silver Elves understand the world as a magical or miraculous phenomena, and that all beings, by pursuing their own true path, will become whomever they truly desire to be. He was very skilled and understood things flawlessly, but this did not translate into his relationships with his fellow Elves. While the Elf walked the line of genius, he was also incredibly selfish and prideful. He created them from the Two Trees of Valinor with a level of craftsmanship that was never replicated again. He was a master blacksmith and battle strategist, he was born with a piece of his mother's spirit inside him, and – most importantly – he crafted the Silmarils, which are the most precious gems in all of Arda. One of the most complex Elves in Lord of the Rings, Fëanor's importance in Tolkien's universe surpasses many. ![]() ![]() ![]() Soon, the past Kate thought she could outrun will explode, unearthing a legacy of lies and treachery and a fury powerful enough to kill.

By the end, the Producer appears to have become a figment of her own imagination, tormented in Blair Witch style by people who are only fictions. A deeply damaged family riven by sexual aberration and guilt, they persuade the Producer to turn her camera on them, so drawing her and us into a world where the lines between truth and fiction are increasingly blurry. Here, rather than a theatre, the characters come to a TV editing suite, in which a drama-documentary about assisted suicide is in post-production.

C an Pirandello's ground-breaking 1921 comi-tragedy ever be made to work in performance?

Highlights include two National Treasures and several works recognized as Important Cultural Properties. ![]() Covering the period from the eleventh century to the present, the exhibition features more than 120 works, including paintings, calligraphy, silk robes, lacquer wedding set items, a palanquin for the shogun's bride, and popular art such as ukiyo-e prints and modern manga. Written by Murasaki Shikibu, a lady-in-waiting in the early eleventh-century imperial court, and often referred to as the world's first psychological novel, the tale recounts the amorous escapades of the "Shining Prince" Genji and introduces some of the most iconic female characters in the history of Japanese literature. This is the first major loan exhibition in North America to focus on the artistic tradition inspired by Japan's most celebrated work of literature, The Tale of Genji. Toward the end of Genji’s life (he dies during his fifty-first year), he is betrothed to Nyosan, the daughter of an emperor who wishes to see her well married before he retires. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The fifth son, Christiaan, was a lawyer and politician who fought in the Second Boer War against the British.

Van der Post was born in the small town of Philippolis in the Orange River Colony, the post- Boer War British name for what had previously been the Afrikaner Orange Free State in what is today South Africa.

Mary Ingalls went blind in 1879 at age 14. "I would ask other doctors, but no one could give me a definitive answer, so I started researching it." "Since I was in medical school, I had wondered about whether scarlet fever could cause blindness because I always remembered Mary's blindness from reading the Little House stories and knew that scarlet fever was once a deadly disease," says Tarini, an assistant professor of pediatrics in the Child Health Evaluation and Research Unit at the University of Michigan's C.S. Tarini, M.D., and her co-authors used evidence from newspaper reports, Laura Ingalls' memories and school registries to conclude Mary's blindness was probably caused by viral meningoencephalitis. ![]() But in a new study published today in the journal Pediatrics, University of Michigan researchers found it is likely scarlet fever had nothing to do with Mary's blindness. ![]() |
