TV Review: HBO's 'Game of Thrones'
Fans of George R.R. Martin's books should be pleased with this TV epic
On the Firewall & Iceberg podcast last week, Sepinwall broke with form and asked me to give the introductory synopsis for HBO's new epic drama "Game of Thrones." He figured that since I'd read a book-and-a-half (and counting) of George R.R. Martin's "A Song of Ice and Fire" franchise, I might have more luck summarizing the fantasy-but-not-fantasy trappings.
I failed dismally.
The next day, I was on a conference call with Martin himself and I asked him to take a shot at laying out the basics, figuring he must have pitched the premise enough times over the years to have a really simple, one-paragraph answer prepared.
He did not. He said something about it having been described as "fantasy for people who hate fantasy" and made his now-familiar claims about the story's root in The War of the Roses. He talked for at least five minutes and while I'm sure he improved upon my podcast stammering, he didn't give a response that I could work with.
The problem isn't that "Game of Thrones" is excessively complicated or that it's difficult to understand without a scorecard. I don't want to give any impression that "Game of Thrones" is an intimidating piece of work to slog through. What it is, however, is vast and uncompromising in scope. HBO has never been afraid to plop viewers down in the middle of heavily populated dramatic realms. Go back and watch the pilots for "The Wire" or "Deadwood" or "Boardwalk Empire" and count the number of characters you're immediately asked to keep track of. But "The Wire" was grounded in an American urban experience that was at least vaguely familiar, even if you weren't versed in the specifics of Baltimore's inner city. And "Deadwood" and "Boardwalk Empire" both relied on a scaffolding of actual history and geography, plus the inclusion of a number of famous historical characters.
"Game of Thrones" dispatches viewers in a foreign land with a foreign geography and thousands of years of foreign history. It doesn't say "Understand everything this second or your're going to wind up in a corner muttering 'Starks and Tullys and Lanisters... oh my.'" What it requires, if you haven't read any of Martin's books, is that you have faith in series developers David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, This isn't a "They know best" kind of faith, but rather a "They'll tell me what I need to know when I need to know it" faith.
Through six episodes, I found that faith well-earned. Benioff and Weiss have taken Martin's hefy book and translated it with a fidelity that fans are likely to appreciate, while welcoming new audiences with a thematic core that won't seem so impenetrable. It's not just a story for fantasy fans. And although I can only speak for my own gender-informed viewing experience, there's no reason why this should be a story aimed only at men.
"Game of Thrones" is a solidly told yarn that easily overcomes its few storytelling stumbles with exceptional production values and a deep and superior cast that far out-strips any reasonable expectations for this sort of saga.

OK. Deep breath. I'm going to try to summarize the "Game of Thrones" plot as best I can. It won't work, but I've gotta try.
We set our scene in the land of Westeros. Ruling over the realm with an uneasy grasp is Robert Baratheon (Mark Addy), a popular warrior with more interest in drinking, whoring and hunting than ruling. That's OK with his Queen, Cersei (Lena Headey), a Lannister by birth. The Lannisters may have their eye on the Iron Throne and there's ample scheming coming from Cersei's twin brother Jaime (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) and their younger brother Tyrion (Peter Dinklage), half as tall, but twice as smart as anybody else.
To maintain order, King Robert turns to old friend Eddard Stark (Sean Bean), guardian of Westeros' northern realm. Eddard is a man of duty, but he's loath to depart wife Catelyn (Michelle Fairley) and children Robb (Richard Madden), Sansa (Sophie), Arya (Maisie Williams), Bran (Isaac Hempstead-Wright) and Rickon (Art Parkinson). Eddard also has a bastard son named Jon (Kit Harington), but Westeros isn't the easiest place for a bastard to grow up and Jon is ready to dedicate his life to military service protecting the mammoth wall that separates Westeros from the barbaric reaches to the Far North, a land populated by all manner of possible urban legends.
That's not so hard, right? King Robert has a throne. The Lannisters may be conspiring around that throne. King Robert trusts the Starks. There's a Wall. Our side of the Wall? Good. Other side? Scary.
Simple, right?
There's a little bit more. Across the sea, we find Viserys (Harry Lloyd) and Daenerys (Emilia Clarke) of the House of Targaryen. The Targaryens ruled before the Baratheons overthrew them. The Targaryens also used to have dragons, but dragons aren't around anymore, just like magic used to be prominent, but now it's marginalized and possibly absent entirely. Viserys has sold Dany into marital slavery to Khal Drogo (Jason Momoa) a chieftain in a tribe of nomadic horse lords called the Dothraki. The Dothraki have their own language. It's subtitled. Viserys hopes that Drogo will furnish an army that will allow him to travel back to Westeros to reclaim the crown.
Yes, that's a lot of information and it spoils absolutely nothing. What you need to know is that in a fragmented kingdom, many people either have a claim on the throne or probably have the mettle to rule. There's also a scheming eunuch, a brat of a princeling and a small pack of initially adorable, eventually vicious direwolves.
There are dozens of additional named characters, but they're introduced gradually, with information parsed on a need-to-know basis. If you've read the books, you already know. And if you don't, you're safer not worrying about things like the relationship between Theon Greyjoy (Alfie Allen) and the Stark family. It'll be explained when it's relevant.
"Game of Thrones" is, at its core, about nothing more or less than the nature of power and leadership. Those best-suited to rule often prefer not to, those best-suited to rule in war may not be best-suited to rule in peace, those most likely to be beloved aren't always most likely to be effective. This is not unfamiliar territory for HBO and I don't think that's accidental. Look at the result of the vacuum of law and order in Deadwood and the difference between institutional power and actual clout that played out between Al Swearengen and Seth Bullock. Look at Tony Soprano's gradual progression through his own crime family and the attempts to unseat him, both from within and without, while parts of his family strived for normalcy or legitimacy. Look at the stratification of business interests -- again, tip-toing between legitimacy and crime -- in the Baltimore drug trade on "The Wire" and see how that world intersected with the law, but also with the city's elected and unelected powermongers. "Game of Thrones" takes place in a fantasy world, but the stakes are recognizable.
Every episode pens with a brilliant and changeable map of Westeros, an animated representation of the Seven Kingdoms, its seats of power and the journeys taken by our main characters. The cities rise off of the map, seemingly erecting themselves with gears and other mechanical parts. Castles rise, but they don't come out of nowhere. They're the product of meshing pieces and turning wheels. The show's drama is the grinding of that machinery of power.
Martin's books aren't short on action, but they're much heavier on burgeoning conspiracies, backroom dealings and unsteady truces. This is a character piece, but it's a character piece that's punctuated by frequent beheadings, regular trips to brothels and more than a few dovetailing family trees.
Context and history are everything in "Game of Thrones" and Benioff and Weiss aren't above sticking to Martin's exposition-heavy prose. We arrive in Westeros at a point of transition -- Winter, as you may have heard from the promos, is coming and in Westeros, "winter" can last many years and it's both literal and metaphorical -- and while that means that there are great heroics ahead of us, there are even more stories of lore in the past. And these characters like to talk about the past -- their past, but also the kingdom's past. And they talk and they talk and they talk. One viable approach for Weiss and Benioff to have taken would have involved injecting flashbacks, anything to weave more battles and wenching and visceral excitement into the narrative. But "Game of Thrones" isn't an action series. You don't lack for swordfights and spurting blood and a quantity of sex that some viewers will find unnecessary, but moments like that are used as key punctuation in episodes, where the greater tension is being delivered through conversations in which viewers may be hard pressed to trust or embrace either party.
Thanks in part to this exposition, including new and transplanted scenes from Weiss and Benioff, "Game of Thrones" operates in shades of gray. Sepinwall is convinced that Eddard Stark is the show's hero, but his rigid ethical code and preference for following orders made me distrust him on the page and also on the screen. And you know what? We're both right and Sean Bean plays both sides, while also anchoring the series with the cultural capital gleaned from the "Lord of the Rings" movies. Peter Dinklage was the epitome of no-brainer casting as The Imp, and he expertly captures the way that being undersized and over-brained makes Tyrion both dangerously contemptuous, but also adeptly empathetic. Mark Addy excels because although Robert has descended into buffoonery, there's just enough evidence of a larger-than-life figure men would go to war and die for. Nikolaj Coster-Waldau's Jaime is a preening, quick-tempered fop, but the actor finds his humanity in his dedication (probably excessive) to his family and also in his respect for the code which comes from his social station. Even Harry Lloyd's petulant, sadistic, reptilian Viserys, easily the most one-dimensional and hatable of the book and series' villains, is driven by a sense of regal entitlement that isn't really his fault, so much as his birthright.
It would be wrong to say that the men have the only significant roles in "Game of Thrones" or even that the men have the main roles. The title refers to the "game" of thrones, but although the men have the tangible and visible power, the stakes are higher for the women. To my mind, the hero of the series and the books (so far as I've read, so don't tell me if she becomes possessed by a demon or something) is Catelyn, who seems much more capable of balancing devotion to the kingdom, devotion to her family and devotion to her faith than Eddard does. Michelle Fairley replaced Jennifer Ehle in this role and I think that was almost certainly a good move. I'm not sure I've noticed Fairley in anything previously, but she has a wearied strength that make her the most "relatable" character in a piece that isn't always strong on relatability (nor need it be).
Catelyn is far from the only female character whose concerns go deeper than just who is sitting on the Iron Throne. Westeros is a vast kingdom and there are vast cultural differences between the Northerners and Southerners. The contrast between Fairley's Catelyn and Lena Headey's Cersei is embodied by the actresses with much more clarity than Martin could ever write. Headey looks younger and more rested than Fairley, an apt representation of the different lives lived by their characters and their different backgrounds. But Headey makes Cersei both calculating, but also nuanced in ways that go beyond what's on the page.
The third major female character, Emilia Clarke's Daenerys, is the one most likely to be embraced in certain circles and reviled in others. The sexual politics -- "rape," really -- she encounters through her marriage to Khal Drogo make her early scenes difficult to watch and the character's arc -- female empowerment through sexual mastery -- are a bit predictable and sometimes feel exploitative due to the camera's presence in capturing Clarke's naked body. [The storyline is also hampered by Jason Momoa being trapped in the series' lone unplayable role. Khal Drogo is a cartoon in the books and he's a cartoon here and no actor could have played the role naturalistically.] Any reservations I might have otherwise had were alleviated by Clarke's superior performance, which makes the accelerated journey from innocent child to knowing woman feel organic, however heightened and silly the world of the Dothrakis is.
There have certainly been subsets of fantasy literature and film in which female power was something to be feared or detested, but in "Game of Thrones," the women are the glue and the men are often stuck in a bellicose version of a penis-measuring contest.
Going forward, much of the series will hinge on the young characters, which put a lot of pressure on the casting directors secure the proper child actors to play the Stark children. There's no doubt that wide-eyed Maisie Williams is the big discovery as tomboy-ish Arya, while Sophie Turner does a fine job of rendering Sansa's princess fantasies without making the character as detestable as she sometimes is in the book. On the older side, Richard Madden, Kit Harington and Alfie Allen hold their own with the more experienced performers.
One eventually might just list everybody, but I also quite liked Iain Glen as Jorah Mormont, Aidan Gillen as Littlefinger and Rory McCann as Sandor Clegane.
Most of the acting choices have been made to keep characters in line with their representations in the books. I expressed minor reservations in the podcast about what I felt was a new interpretation of one particular character and multiple commenters chimed in, without my even saying which character, and explained that the interpretation was very present if you read between the lines (or maybe just read with a greater attention to innuendo). So if that's the case, the dedication to the book is verging on slavish, albeit with some details transplanted and rearranged to flesh out a couple characters sooner.
When "Mildred Pierce" premiered, I criticized it for excessive devotion to James M. Cain's novel at the expense of storytelling in a different medium. Benioff and Weiss and the cast and the production's expert technical crew haven't fallen into the same traps for a variety of reasons.
For one thing, there's just too darned much in Martin's novels. The first six episodes of "Game of Thrones" are all lengthy, but they're not two hours apiece. Despite all of the storylines and all of the characters, there was never a point at which I felt like something really crucial had been trimmed, nor were there many cuts I noticed without thinking hard about it. Is that a reflection of how padded Martin's writing is at times? Perhaps.
A bigger reason why fidelity in one instance ("Mildred Pierce") is deadening and fidelity in another ("Game of Thrones") is liberating has to do with the relative difficulties of visually realizing a Glendale pie shop in 1930 versus visually realizing an imagined kingdom in an imagined time. Using locations and also liberal quantities of CG, "Game of Thrones" depicts The Wall, The Eyrie and the scope of Westeros in ways that are astounding if you've read the book and problem still amaze if you haven't.
I'm not going to deny that there are episodes of "Game of Thrones" that tend more to the side of "too talky" than was necessary, where Benioff and Weiss could have easily boosted the momentum with some liberal dialogue-trimming. I'm also not going to say that every second of "Game of Thrones" feels entirely fresh and sui generis. Martin is working within a genre tradition and aspects are derivative, or at least familiar. But I look at the dense source material, at the cast of hundreds, at the myriad intersecting storylines, at the extensive reshoots between the original pilot and the air version, at the number of pivotal roles filled by relative neophytes, at conspicuously evident budget and it's a wonder "Game of Thrones" works at all. But it doesn't just work. It's smart, well-acted, often thrilling, frequently breathtaking, consistently entertaining television.
And I apologize for taking so many words to try to endorse it.
"Game of Thrones" premieres on Sunday, April 17 on HBO.

Do Midsection Trainers Truly Aid Dieters Lose Weight?
In June, Nicole Rodriguez drew a ligament in her arm while packing a stranger's torso into a midsection trainer. Stretch after you workout. The majority of people recognize to workout prior to they begin their workout. Less understand that you have to stretch afterwards also. As soon as you're completed, resist the urge to leave the health club or simply sit down and also loosen up. In case you liked this short article as well as you wish to get more info relating to
generously check out the web-page. Putting in the time to stretch will maintain you limber as well as optimize the effect of your exercise. Walking is a fantastic way as well as a prominent workout to sustain health and fitness. It improves flow, burns calories and also reinforces your muscles. While walking, make sure to stroll as directly as possible without arching or leaning onward or in reverse. Prevent tilting the body, as this will increase your possibility of straining muscle mass.
Take a day of rest weekly. This will enable your physical body some much required remainder, however it will certainly also provide you a possibility to think about something other than physical fitness for some time. This way, you can go back to your fitness program with fresh eyes to see if you want to try information various or decide to transform a couple of things. Some
think that lifting heavy weight alone will certainly get them right into form. While raising weights is a good type of exercise you should additionally remember that cardio is one more great form of workout for your physical body. It could be tough to start in the beginning yet running, biking and also swimming are all excellent methods of getting right into form.
I purchased a journal as soon as a week, I really did not look at it all day, as well as while TV definitely played a part, that was additionally not a 24/7 point. As well as I concur, long term midsection trainers (Dita Von Teese, Mr. Pearl, etc.) honestly talk about how it's a long term job that takes years (which is disgusting by itself, years of training your body organs to rotate out of the way of your desired form. That said, I seem like Khloe possibly merely purchased 436 pairs of fitness instructors merely to have them, as well as stands in front of that enormous wall surface of footwear thinking, Hmmm. Yeah, I don't care if a person waist trains, yet she's not misleading anyone (with a brain) with that rib cage being half the dimension she really has. I merely saw this on Instagram the other day as well as her comments were flooded with girls and ladies identifying each other speaking about getting waistline instructors.
After that, as your
begins to shrink as well as the midsection instructor ends up being a little bit looser, relocate to the 2nd collection of holds. If your waist trainer has a third collection of clasps, you'll progress to them as soon as your midsection training corset no longer feels strict. If you have actually obtained your waistline fitness instructor on the tightest collection of holds and it starts to really feel loose, you could need to acquire a smaller midsection trainer! And certainly, consult with your doctor or medical professional for any type of concerns and worries prior to waistline training. REMEDY: Waist trainers are meant making you sweat, yet some females aren't comfortable with this.
Remember to enable periodic tools when you spending plan your physical fitness efforts. Outside sports and exercises could be a whole lot even more fun compared to exercising in the house or in a health club. You need to keep in mind, however, that the weather condition will be extremely various six months into your fitness arrange! Think ahead, and get the gear you should maintain exercising all the time. Football is a fantastic cardiovascular activity considering that it requires you to regularly be moving in a different direction. Getting involved in soccer enables you to forge calls with numerous other people, as it would certainly with any type of sports. Nevertheless, you must watch out for competitive players who take the video game seriously and come to be really physical when it comes to getting control of the ball.
Do not allow the cold weather create you to abandon your fitness strategy. A wonderful means to stay determined also in the coldest months is to take a "previously" image of on your own. Hang that image on the refrigerator or someplace where it will certainly be seen every one of the time, so you could be reminded of the significance of maintaining your physical fitness plan. Whether your "previously" photo is a photo that you enjoy or one that you can't stand as well as want to enhance, it will certainly keep you encouraged for sure!
To get the most from your cardio workout, attempt interval training. Go as fast as you could for 2 minutes, and afterwards rest momentarily. By moving your heart rate backwards and forwards such as this, your workout is maximized, meanings that those calories are getting shed quicker than ever before. A goal is a fantastic thing to have in a health and fitness scheme. Keep in mind that accomplishing a goal is, most importantly, a possibility to set a brand-new goal. Physical fitness is, overall, a goal permanently, except a short time. After climbing to a peak that has been concentrated on, selecting the next, greater optimal to take on will maintain a routine aimed in the direction of life-long fitness. A fantastic idea to help you stay fit is to choose hikes. Not only will you be burning a lot of calories, you'll be able to delight in nature. Some hiking books specify all of the walks in a particular location and they could be an excellent resource.
when in the health club, you can save more time by just relaxing when you should. You should not have to doing very early sets as your muscles are simply heating up. As your routines proceed simply remainder as you need as opposed to squandering a set amount of time which you could not even should use yet.

Bentley has only been selling its vehicles in China since 2002, and by 2010 it had become the marque's third-largest market in the world. 2011 tells a different story for the Asian country.
China outsold the UK for the first time just four months into 2011, claiming the number two spot as the second most important market after the United States. The Brits dropped down to China's previous spot as the third-largest.
"Around one in four Bentleys sold globally, is now sold in China," the company said.
Bentley sold a record 396 vehicles in China during the first quarter of this year, increasing sales by 66 percent compared to last year. Just under 1000 cars were sold to Chinese customers in 2010, almost doubling the previous year's performance. Sales this year are estimated at 1500 units.
The British automaker had recognized its success with the country as early as last year, launching two special edition Continental models exclusively for the Chinese market: the Continental GT Design Series China and the Continental Flying Spur Speed China.
The arrival of the new Continental GT and new Mulsanne models may cause Chinese numbers to skyrocket even more, and large order books prove the models are quickly gaining a large fan base around the world.
Bentley anticipates more growth with the new additions, and plans to expand its Chinese dealer network by one third this year alone.

text: If you're the owner of a small brand trying to do "technical yet wearable athletic apparel," sorry. Like, you might run a pretty good business and you're in a few stores and shit, but you're never going to be the big name you very well may want to be. Why? I'm not tryna be a dick or anything, it's just, you know, you're not Nike. You see, Nike has this thing called "unlimited money for big name endorsements," meaning they can put together videos like the one you see above, featuring some of the most recognizable athletes on the planets. That alone would mean you're essentially fucked, but damn, from what I can see, the clothing in their new "Tech Pack" look pretty awesome too: a hoodie in some sort of technical polyester fleece material (I'm guessing) and a killer, murdered out varsity jacket to name a few. Nike even has these other things called "stores in every major metropolitan area in the world," so, like, damn, bruh. Maybe you should have become a lawyer like your Dad told you to. Just saying.

One-Sided Conversation Epitomizes LI Mother
New York-based filmmaker and John Roberts revived his imaginary mother for this short flick, "The Phone Call". For those of you who have known a Long Island mother, Roberts hit the nail on the bouffant head.
John Roberts is buh-rilliant! Has Queerty run a showing of "Jackie and Debra" yet? That is beyond the beyond amazing!!
HI-larious! I love the cordless phone sitting unused on the counter.
Lo-Larious! I am such a fat pig – I cannot even get up to grab the phone – I wear one of those ghetto ear pieces. Even when I JO because I cannot get a date.
Jackie and Debra should be the new Kelly Shoes, only less popular so dumb-asses don't start quoting it.
No. 3 Gregg got my comment – LOL @ the cordless phone.
No.6 Sandy is so clever. Eyes of a hawk!
That was VERY funny. The garbage and the bathroom were the best. I noticed the wireless – and it looked charged. HA HA HA.
OK… so go to youtube.com and type in a search for "Jackie and Debra". Take a look at john's clowning that just goes far and out there. Then let us know what you thnk.
Sorry, but Linda Richmond got there first. and what self-respecting LI houseiwfe would wear a dress in the house? polyester running suit, yes. Lycra expandable pants and top, yes. But a dress?
thats not a dress dork, its s a robe. And my mom hasn't taken her's off since the 70's

Man who sent death threat to Angela Eagle avoids jail
Steven King wrote an email to Ms Eagle saying: 'next time you see me I'll be with a real gun or knife cutting your life to an end'
Steven King wrote an email to Ms Eagle saying: 'next time you see me I'll be with a real gun or knife cutting your life to an end'
Like Blair, May knows where the votes are and she – just like Blair before her – will stop at nothing to get her hands on them
The 59-year-old would also like to have a Momentum festival next summer
Corbyn promised to reverse privatisation of public services. This would mean renationalisation of the railways. It would also mean restoring a public NHS reversing its privatisation and conversion into a private health insurance system
From smarter rhetoric from Corbyn's team to Momentum winning over hacks and MPs alike, the conference may not have been 'newsy' but it was far from boring
She says: 'If offence has been caused, it is the last thing I would want to do'
Corbyn's critics will pursue war by other means. Instead of full-frontal attacks and another attempt to oust the leader, the refuseniks who spurn his plea to join his frontbench team will draw up an alternative policy platform, and try to outshine the official Opposition
Deputy leader suggests heckler 'didn't get the memo' about stopping the bickering
Former Shadow Cabinet minister says voters want end to freedom of movement
If all else fails, there is always the option of giving up on the mainstream media altogether. Being cast as an anti-establishment figure has worked for Corbyn thus far and the world seems currently full of political mavericks for whom railing against the dreaded MSM is a cogent electoral tactic
The party has committed to back 'clean technologies of the future' rather than fracking
The Labour Party considers itself the party of equality but has failed to live up to those values. We have more female MPs than any other party but have never had a woman leader
Try attacking the Tories instead of each other. Seems obvious, but this has been rather neglected in recent months
Send your letters to firstname.lastname@example.com
'Corbyn's a better person than I am,' a lecturer at the Momentum conference told me. 'I mean, we could learn from him reaching out. We're all a family. That's democracy – you have disagreements and you come together.'

Mr Corbyn beat his opponent by 62 per cent of the vote to 38 per cent

Author learns 'home' is a state of mind
In "Harlem Is Nowhere," her incisive and moving study of what she calls "the Mecca of Black America," Sharifa Rhodes-Pitts describes African-Americans' longing for a never-known homeland as "the melancholy that compels us all: a yearning for the past from which our ancestors were irrevocably torn."
That same yearning consumes Emily Raboteau, whose African-American grandfather was shot dead in 1943 Mississippi "for defending a black woman to a white man." »Read Full Article
Review: Baylor Family Exhibition at Cardinal Stritch
For centuries, art was almost always about God.

But the scenes which make this movie one of my favorites include the incident involving the cigarette lighter, Joe Mantegna doing battle with the gorilla, & Nordby's completely off the wall rendition of "Mary Had a Little Lamb." you should watch this!

These sheers are just what I was looking for. The cream color is subtle, not too yellow.
I liked it very much.
The panel and valance were perfect for what I wanted. I use one panel on a shower spring rod pulled to one side with a satin brown rope tie. The valance takes up half the rod and the panel the other half. This is in front of a glass enclosed tub shower. It looks so elegant.
Excellent quality and elegant look.
These panels are an excellent way to soften the look of bedroom windows -- especially over pleated shades. I recommend the scalloped valance to finish the look
I order the kitchen curtains very good quality lots of compliments from family and friends.

The brilliantly creative mind of Michael Keith Allen has worked wonders with a new re-telling of Shakespeare's MACBETH at the Art of Acting Studio by setting the tragedy in a postmodern Scotland where street thugs battle for leadership as well as territory, while cutting the run time to 90 minutes and allowing the actors to speak without heavy accents, making it easy to understand the dialogue and follow the plot and character development. It is definitely the best rendition of the classic I have ever seen. (more...)

In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, the approach to medicine was vastly different from today. Health is now recognised, at least in most European countries, as a universal right, but what was it like in the past? How did social and political boundaries affect access to treatment, and what were the treatments of the day? This free course, The history of medicine: A Scottish perspective, examines how Scottish healthcare institutions were influenced by these underlying social, economic, political and cultural contexts.
After studying this course, you should be able to:
- assess the specific problems concerning the health of a community
- describe how medical knowledge was a resource for, and was shaped by, broader cultural perceptions of the body.
- Duration 10 hours

The history of medicine: a Scottish perspective
This course presents information about how Scottish healthcare institutions were influenced by the underlying social, economic, political and cultural contexts.
In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, a series of innovative models of the body was produced, from the mechanical to the mathematical to the sensible. As groundbreaking anatomical investigation and physiological experimentation were carried out, the map of the body changed, and different parts (vessels, glands, nerves) acquired visibility and became the focus of much research.

This week I took my regular tram and got off at Bismarckplatz, a very confusing and busy square where two important streets meet: Bergheim and Hauptstrasse, the main street with kilometers of shops and restaurants, a very beautiful pedestrian street.
Distracted as I am, I saw a lot of police cars blocking the ways, only the tram could pass, all the rest was stopped by the police, but I didn't really pay attention, I walked through a parallel street and after 2 blocks I decided to turn left and go to the Hauptstrasse, it is much prettier, I thought.
As I reached the street all the police officers were leaving with their cars and opening the way. Most of the shops had their glass doors still closed. People were looking confused. As a Brazilian my first thought was "an arrastão" (like the assault to women in Cologne, but here to shops). But I refuted my theory as I realized that nothing was broken or dirty. Walking back to the square I saw just a small shop with the doors open, luckily it was also my favorite shop! I entered Accessorize focused on constructing a question in german and asked the salesgirl:
"Wissen Sie was passiert ist?"
"A bomb threat that was proven false." I admire her calmness. I understand everything was ok, but only imagining that a bomb could have been planted here on the same day that 3 bombs exploded in Turkey made me feel very uncomfortable and insecure. It also made me realize that the police is dealing with a lot of stress and it is taking for granted that a bag unattended is a bomb.
