Download or read book Masks in Horror Cinema written by Alexandra Heller-Nicholas and published by University of Wales Press. This book was released on 2019-10-15 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why has the mask been such an enduring generic motif in horror cinema? This book explores its transformative potential historically across myriad cultures, particularly in relation to its ritual and mythmaking capacities, and its intersection with power, ideology and identity. All of these factors have a direct impact on mask-centric horror cinema: meanings, values and rituals associated with masks evolve and are updated in horror cinema to reflect new contexts, rendering the mask a persistent, meaningful and dynamic aspect of the genre’s iconography. This study debates horror cinema’s durability as a site for the potency of the mask’s broader symbolic power to be constantly re-explored, re-imagined and re-invented as an object of cross-cultural and ritual significance that existed long before the moving image culture of cinema.

Download or read book The Ethos of Noh written by Eric C. Rath and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2020-03-23 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Since the inception of the noh drama six centuries ago, actors have resisted the notion that noh rests on natural talent alone. Correct performance, they claim, demands adherence to traditions. Yet what constitutes noh’s traditions and who can claim authority over them have been in dispute throughout its history. This book traces how definitions of noh, both as an art and as a profession, have changed over time. The author seeks to show that the definition of noh as an art is inseparable from its definition as a profession.The aim of this book is to describe how memories of the past become traditions, as well as the role of these traditions in the institutional development of the noh theater from its beginnings in the fourteenth century through the late twentieth century. It focuses on the development of the key traditions that constitute the ""ethos of noh,"" the ideology that empowered certain groups of actors at the expense of others, and how this ethos fostered noh’s professionalization--its growth from a loose occupation into a closed, regulated vocation. The author argues that the traditions that form the ethos of noh, such as those surrounding masks and manuscripts, are the key traits that define it as an art. "

Using masks and rituals as therapy can be extremely effective as an alternative to more traditional and clinical methods. Using a myriad of discoveries from Dr. Sky’s own creative and spiritual journey—including centuries-old Japanese Noh Theater techniques and Finnish lamenting traditions—Pathways III and IV: Masks and Rituals will inspire you to access the healing power available to us all through SohKiDo and its unique and life-changing insights into spirituality and the self.
