the chinese bungalow is a 1925 play by marion osmond and james corbet , based on osmond ' s 1923 novel ; it is a three - act melodrama set in the far east . [ 1 ] it was adapted for film in 1926 , in 1930 , and again in 1940 .
born in 1904 , ballard berkeley ' s film career began as far back as 1930 in a film called the chinese bungalow — nearly half a century before he could be found wandering around fawlty towers . his film and tv career spanned the decades and the genres — comedy , horror , suspenseful thrillers and more — often playing the type of role he was so brilliant at .

i ' d like to be notified of new arrivals in the following categories .
copyright ( c ) 1996 by the library , university of california , berkeley .
major gowen , played by ballard berkeley , in fawlty towers was a bumbling , quintessential stiff upper lipped english gentleman . and proud of it ! well known for his distrust of foreigners in general , and germans in particular , he could always be found wandering about fawlty towers enquiring if the newspapers had arrived yet . the only thing more important to major gowen than the arrival of the newspapers to keep himself abreast of the cricket scores was the opening of the bar . this was an era with less liberal licensing hours than can be enjoyed in england today .
. however it is possible that brodzsky actually contributed very little . in a memoir in the william walton archive , roy douglas claimed ,
brodsky was a so - called composer : i had actually composed entire film scores for him , which went under his name
. in a letter to roy douglas dated 23 december 1943 , william walton wrote ,
i ' m delighted about your picture . i ' ll have a good deal to tell you about brodsky when i see you . in my capacity as music adviser to two cities [ a film company ] it is going to be my duty to have to tick him off !
ballard berkeley was just as big a cricket fan off screen as the major in fawlty towers was on screen . ballard would often signal to john cleese on set to keep him informed on the progress of his beloved england in the test match .

the old curiosity shop marks a crisis in dickens’s early career . overcommitted to projects , a victim of his own success , dickens soon found his episodic model of fiction , first practiced in pickwick and devoted to furnishing ‘‘a constant succession of characters and incidents , ’’ pushed to its limit . of his new periodical master humphrey’s clock he complained , ‘‘wind , wind , wind , always winding i am . ’’ his fourth novel became a metafictional reflection on the conditions of his own creativity , a work seemingly intent on thwarting the very delineating power—the power of invention , and of inventory—that multiplies fresh characters and incidents in the dickensian episodic narrative .

constituting its most central anxious current , this crisis of spirit stimulates the whole of stiegler’s text . drawing on parallel pre - war reflections of paul valéry , stiegler sketches out what he reads as a pernicious decline in the value of mind , intelligence , care , communication—spirit—fostered and aggravated by the ever unfolding dominance of social , communicative , and consumerist technologies which usher in a pervasive manipulation of libidinal economies , supplanting drive for desire , instant gratification for often productive sublimation . in a clear nod to the work of max weber , stiegler points to a new phase of social disenchantment , pushed to a dangerous limit . whereas weber set upon the effects of capitalist rationalization , stiegler gestures towards the irrational , the poisonous enchantment of neo - capitalism , consumption , isolating neoliberal individualism , and a subsequent drop in personal and collective desire for a common future .

for deleuze , every literary work implies a way of living , a form of life , and must be evaluated not only critically but also clinically . as proust said , great writers invent a new language within language , but in such a way that language in its entirety is pushed to its limit or its own “outside . ” this outside of language is made up of affects and precepts that are not linguistic , but which language alone nonetheless makes possible . in essays critical and clinical , deleuze is concerned with the delirium - the process of life - that lies behind this invention , as well as the loss that occurs , the silence that follows , when this delirium becomes a clinical state . taken together , these eighteen essays present a profoundly new approach to literature by one of the greatest twentieth - century philosophers .

it’s a vicious cycle , and the high court gave gov . jerry brown until february 2016 to fix it by reducing the state’s prison population by some 33 , 000 inmates . through a combination of new construction and historic reforms , the state got the job done ahead of schedule . in march , the prison population dropped below the mandated capacity limit . but many of those would - be prisoners wound up in county jails , which now also face population burdens . like the prisons , many county jails are also decades old and desperately need structural upgrades .

at the same time , alarmingly , there is no limit to how much mass you can pile onto a white dwarf . worse , the heavier you make one the more powerful the gravitational force at its surface becomes . isaac newton ' s famous law of universal gravitation states that the force of gravity is proportional to 1 / r 2 , which means that if a planet ' s radius shrinks by a factor of two , then the force of gravity at its surface must rise by a factor of four . chandrasekhar showed that there was a point where the unlimited advance of increasing mass and decreasing radius could no longer be sustained . like a straw breaking a camel ' s back , adding more mass to a white dwarf at this point would cause the dwarf ' s gravitational compression to exceed any possible increase in electron pressure . thus the dwarf would shrink , yet be left with an even worse gravitational imbalance than before . the increased imbalance would make it shrink further , thus worsening the gravitational crisis . . . in short , chandrasekhar ' s calculations predicted that if a white dwarf was raised beyond a critical mass , it would catastrophically collapse ! he calculated this critical mass to be about 1 . 4 times the mass of the sun , and in time it came to be known as chandrasekhar ' s limit .

our lives are determined by manifold contingencies ( … ) i decided to give up the struggle .

all of the above will lead to providing this examination with the means to return to the original problems of interpreting the closure in moon palace raised by shostak . i will conclude that the competing epistemologies , which serve as presuppositions of the seemingly exclusive interpretations , are inevitably drawn into dialogue with each other . i argue that the question is not which account is the sufficient one , but how are both interpretations dependent on its counterpart . in other words , i hope to lead the reader to arrive at the conclusion that the question is the question itself , that moon palace is above all a book of questions .
the gap , the separation , the differentiation between the touching and the touched , the seeing and the seen , mind and world , self and others ; it is the fissure that language tries to bridge and that the philosophical methods of reflection , dialectic and intuition have historically attempted to close through their respective theories of meaning , only to ignore thereby how this »un - tamable« , at once secretly nourishes and undermines the habits of thought and experience that they sought to establish .

to say these facilities are overcrowded would be a gross understatement . from 1982 to 2000 , the state’s prison population , the biggest in the nation , spiked 500 percent . and inside those decrepit walls , the conditions are so horrific that in 2011 , the u . s . supreme court ruled that california prisons violated prisoners’ eighth amendment rights to adequate health care .
the report concludes that loss and damage is already a significant consequence of inadequate mitigation of , and adaptation to , climate change . many of the households surveyed reported that they are ‘just getting by’ , suggesting that some communities are in a precarious position . managing the risk associated with loss and damage is deemed as crucial to avoid the irreversible threats such losses pose to sustainable development . addressing loss and damage is about capturing opportunities to ameliorate climate change impacts in ways that help to improve human well - being . by failing to deal with loss and damage , there is a danger that affected societies will be unprepared and unable to smoothly transition and adjust to negative climate change impacts .
this is the orphic space to which the poet doubtless has no access , where he can penetrate only to disappear , which he attains only when he is united with the intimacy of the breach that makes him a mouth unheard , just as it makes him who hears into the weight of silence . the open is the work , but the work as origin ( blanchot , 142 ) .

the return to the moon motif provokes contradictory interpretations . according to the mode of psychological realism , one might argue that fogg has found his own place in the world , perhaps specifically in relation to his vocation as an artist . a postmodern epistemology informs more compromised view of the novels’s closure : just as the chinese restaurant to which the title refers – moon palace – exists in the novel largely »as gap or absence« , and just as blakelock’s painting moonlight focuses on »the gaps of a realistic representation« , so too is fogg under the moon consigned to » [ inhabit ] this representational gap or error« ( weisenburger 78 ; emphasis in original ) . ( shostak , 163 )
and yet , by this time astronomers had discovered dozens of white dwarf stars . . . and not one had a mass above 1 . 4 solar masses , as far as could be determined . there were a few who felt that this was too eerily in accord with chandrasekhar ' s limit for the whole idea to just be dismissed . as we shall see later , the full story of what happens when a white dwarf is taken beyond 1 . 4 solar masses turns out to be wonderful and complicated , but before we can tell that story we must turn our attention to stellar birth , which we will do in the next section . before moving on , i will note that in 1937 , weary of the hostility to his theories from eddington and other british astronomers , chandrasekhar left cambridge for a faculty position at the university of chicago , where he stayed for the rest of his life . in 1983 he was awarded the nobel prize in physics , primarily for his work on white dwarfs .
normally , however , this exclusion rule only applies to electrons that are within the same atom . for
normal
matter ( like the kind you are made of ) , the electrons are attached to nuclei which are littered across the space within you like so many marbles scattered miles apart . there is plenty of room for the small family of electrons in each atom to have the most favorable – that is , the lowest energy – states all to themselves . ( see plate 4 for an illustration . )
the uk ' s a & e departments have been described by the college of emergency medicine ( cem ) as facing a crisis . the term was specifically chosen to describe the situation that everyone from the most senior consultant to the most junior nurse is experiencing . last year dr cliff mann , the cem president , wrote in a press release :
a lack of a plan for resolution [ is ] an existential threat to emergency medicine .
the ekphrais here carries the weight of undecidabilities up to a point when it excludes finding a solid basis for concrete meaning , definite interpretation .
over the past four progressively worse winters i came to a tipping point . nothing in the media was reflecting the daily realities of being a doctor on the shop floor . last april , when the cem ' s press release hit the headlines , i took my cue .
as it has already been emphasized , the central symbols in auster’s poetry hovering above the ontological dilemma of the self , representation , and reality , are the mouth ( voice , eating / fasting , nausea ) and the eyes ( disappearance in seeing ) . there is a primordial match between the two .
martin heidegger maintains that the hand is the first tool humans have for connecting with the world . levinas , however , in time and the other , suggests that the world is foremost given to the mouth before it is objectified by sight or hands ; in contrast to heidegger , levinas believes that
prior to being a system of tools , the world is an ensemble of nourishments« ( uchiyama , 118 ) . in moon palace the intertwining concepts of the eye and mouth go through a detectable progression from ontological considerations ( binge eating / fasting , nausea ) , through the problems of representation ( verbal mimesis of the visual world to the blind , the repetitive babbling of the automaton ) towards straightforward ethical issues ( a loving kiss to the levinasian alterity ) .
before this paper could zero in on the ekphrasis of blakelock’s moonlight , first it has to deal with the neon glitter of the
moon palace
, a prefigurative sign for the painting , which is the only sight to behold from fogg’s room of confinement . my interrogation into the topic relies on lacanian concepts applied to interpret subjective becoming in an instructing essay written about moon palace by salah el moncef . in his study , el moncef concludes that auster manages to transform the process of metonymic drift into a
fuzzy
(
the drive that each and every one of auster’s books share is a passionate desire to probe into the uncharted territory of the space of writing , a space of signification that is so close to the perceiver , that it becomes absolutely invisible . to add just another metaphor of this atopian locality , i cite patrick burke , who argues that
fissure
is
so thus , when fogg as a connecting node containing paternal stories pars pro toto faces barber as his direct ancestor , barber collapses into his own mise - en - abyme , that is , into his own grave . the chain reaction of unfolding subjectivities results in a clash , an implosion of a story made possible to be told only by fogg as a mise - en - abyme . from this moment on , fogg is freed from the burden of carrying the weight of making all their stories communicable , and now is able to start his own peregrination into the desert after he realizes that it is not possible to return to the origin of the story . the cave where the stories of three sons and absent fathers started , the cave where the ultimate truth of barber’s / effing’s masterpieces is buried , has disappeared under lake powell forever . the only origin to which fogg can now return to is the origin of all beginnings , the infinite possibilities inherent in every fresh start and every dark end : a continual return to the white space of emptiness , a return to the blank page of death .
in the chambre de bonne we find that the three personae unite in one aspect only , in the disappearances , the invisibility of their work and their subjectivitites . one only has to bring the cover photo of the invention of solitude into mind to have a grasp on this aporetic situation . once again , it is blanchot who offers insight into invisible subjectivities and masterpieces ( cf . effing’s paintings ) by way of interrogating the moment when orpheus looks back to eurydice .
“as the population grows , the demand is going to grow , ” he says . “hopefully , as we look down the road , we can start to see improvements in some of those rehabilitation programs so we’re not just building more prisons and throwing more people into them . whatever the solution ends up being , there is going to be built space required . ”
as opposed to intentional attempts at denominalization , in moon palace there are several instances where imaginary perception of outer realities is made possible by unintentional denominalization . the ekphrasis of blakelock’s moonlight is one obvious example of a mise - en - abyme for such operations , and will be interpreted accordingly . but first let us examine how fogg ends up in front of the painting in the first place . the reason why effing sends fogg to the brooklyn museum to behold the painting is most probably his dissatisfaction with the young scholar’s ability to verbally describe visual objects . yet , at the time of the old man’s agony , it is fogg’s newly found talent to dissolve the endless inventories of realities into an intermittent flux of descriptions that offers him some comfort . here prelapsarian language does not formulate itself in the unity of signifiers and signifieds inherent in names given by adam , but rather in the language games necessary to solve an unsolvable problem , that is , to make the infinite seem finite ( and the other way round ) .
hunger as some guerilla act of dismembering the body of all systematic beliefs in unity is a topic extensively discussed in readings of paul auster . as opposed to city of glass , in moon palace the art of hunger leads to inevitable failure to disappear . however , passivity is retained ( in intention , not in movement , nor in the intake of nourishments ) as a possibility of breaking the cycle of repetitions . the protagonist , fogg confesses to the representative of military power , how he failed in his fasting .
lee invests his film with the hot - damn urgency of a man long spoiling to be heard . in his eagerness , lee sometimes muddles his points by getting preachy . but the feeling persists that this is the movie that lee , now thirty - one , had to make . what’s held him back ? the atlanta - born , brooklyn - bred alumnus of new york university’s film school first needed to prove he was bankable . only the box - office success of his first two films earned lee the power to swim in the mainstream , where he could reach the greatest numbers . with do the right thing , lee’s best and boldest film , he exploits that power to the fullest and gives audiences the most vigorous shake - up they’ve had in years .
movement he belongs to is associated with transcendentalism and illusionistic pictorial representation arising from a metaphysical interest in the sublime .
deleuze’s last published work exemplifies his long - standing interest in how philosophy relates to literature . this valuable study is an ideal introduction to deleuze’s distinctive concerns .
3 – degrees kelvin are the same as degrees celsius , except that zero c° corresponds to the freezing point of pure water , whereas zero k° corresponds to absolute zero , the coldest temperature possible . absolute zero is the theoretical temperature where all motion ceases , even atomic motion . the kelvin scale is therefore sometimes also called the absolute temperature scale . absolute zero occurs at 0 k° , or at - 459 . 69 f° , as you prefer . 4 – heat is simply the random motion of small particles . the more energetic the motion of the individual particles , the higher the temperature of the whole .
he hopes for a less intense workload as a consultant , but it appears that is not going to be the case . the report said that 40 % of the consultant workforce were on call one night in every six . the average age of emergency medicine consultants is 43 and the survey showed most plan to retire at 60 .
there are recurrent themes causing the crisis : more people are coming to a & e ; a falling number of doctors want to work there because of the pressures involved and the poor work / life balance ; and hospitals are increasingly full – resulting in bottlenecks that back up into the emergency department .
could this collaborative approach translate to the civic arena ? possibly . but with 58 counties in california , heeter doesn’t believe there will be enough money — or enough firms — to handle all the demands for jail and courthouse construction .
before starting to work with paul auster’s mise - en - abymes , one must read moon palace once again . and once again the reader will became vertiginous with the elaborate network of references and cross - references , once again he will feel the hunger for more and become nauseated when he gets it . once again − succumbing to the lure of the lucid and lacunic lunar surface of blakelock’s moonlight – the beholder must delve into the abyss of overdetermined signifiers . and once again one is bound to have a whale of time in the belly of the leviathan .
the so - called cap was put in place to ensure the town didn’t expand beyond its limits and encroach on the national park . it’s also meant to prevent overcrowding , housing and parking shortages and traffic congestion , made worse by growing numbers of tourists each year .
the chambre de bonne serves as an empty place for meditation for the
fuzzy
subjectivity , which is always already in the process of being created by the cross references of the four archives . there is an infinite number of ways how the wandering mind can connect these archives , and the more footprints these movements leave around the white surface of the center , the more visible the fuzzy subjectivity becomes in the invisible space of the chambre de bonne . mireille rosello proposes the concept of the flâneur to describe the movement of the wandering / signifying body / mind ( eye / mouth ) , a concept which cennect alea ( chance events ) with intertextuality , with absence , and with the
fuzzy
concept of subjectivity .
is in progress , but not so with effing . in the desert he created his new subjetivity ( from julian barber to thomas effing ) , and no matter to what extent he built irony in his new name ( thomas for being dubious , effing for f * * * ing his life ) , the work is completed and entirely wrapped up in its nominalization . he sends fogg to the brooklyn musem with the following advice :
see if you can’t begin to enter the mind of the artist , who painted the landscape before you . imagine that you are blakelock , painting the picture yourself

regardless which is correct , the town is faced with a growing population , and need for somewhere to put them .
last year’s state corrections budget included $ 500 million to fund the expansion of county jails ( in addition to the jail expansion funds of $ 1 . 2 billion from years prior . but how that money should be allocated is debatable .
in the levinasian concept of philosophy the ethics of responsibility comes before its imperative drive to seek truth and knowledge through theoretical interrogations . in the subject’s exposed and irreducible relation to a defining other never to be possessed , according to levinas , humanism has to do away with the notion of a free subject . not arising from free will , the demand of alterity presented as the other precedes any knowledge or affirmation / denial of free will . in other words , the subject has its origins in alterity . thus , alterity as a force of subjectivation is always a priori in its relation to the subject . before coming face to face with the other and its demands , the subject could have any claims for accepting / negating free will , only if it arose from itself . in this case ( a heideggerian concept heavily debated by levinas ) , it would be the ego that determined the other , which would , in turn , constitute the ontological subject based on its freedom , intelligibility ( knowing ) , and representation . levinas attacks such a concept , hence his insistence on the
primordial phenomenon of gentleness
( levinas , 150 ) in the face - to - face encounter with the other , which creates the revelation of alterity . the transcendental other preceding subjectivation is precisely what is described by auster in the following passage relating the revelation of
love at first sight
:
the start of a shift and i brace myself as i walk into the waiting area . a huge number of people are already there , waiting to be called . i try to avoid eye contact . it ' s like entering an arena but i feel more like the sacrificial lamb than a gladiator . entering the main area of the emergency department , a scene of chaos . all available space to see patients is occupied . staff shout instructions to each other above the noise . i hear a patient vomiting , another is crying out in pain and an elderly woman ' s voice cuts through , confused and repeating that she wants to go home .
so do i ,
i whisper to myself .
there are several critical concepts , metaphores that come to mind facing the music of origin and death in such a paradoxical de / territorialized locality . to name but a few , the space of literature , the orphic space , the gaze ( maurice blanchot ) , tuché , the gaze ( jacques lacan ) , punctum ( roland barthes ) , hibridity , the third space ( homi bhabha ) , mirror stage ( as interpreted by paul de man ) and the decisive moment ( henri cartier - bresson ) has to be enlisted here . what these differing concepts embedded in their ideosyncratic contexts have in common is that they connect the idea of an aporetic surface , movement , moment to their selfsame impulse , namely , to the act of perception .
salah el moncef’s generalized concept of the sublime is described as a constant oscillation between a symbolic totality ( 1 ) , and its synchronic coexistance with the metonymic drift of fragments ( 2 ) . this aporetic function of the moon inherent in blakelock’s landscape connects the sublime to jacques lacan’s concept of anamorphosis and maurice blanchot’s
orphic space
. according to lacan and blanchot , this aporetic space is the surface where author as the absent other lacking origin opens up to his counterpart , the one who percieves . lacan in the confirms that
[ t ] here is something whose absence can always be observed in a picture ( … ) . this is the central field , where the separating power of the eye is exercised to the maximum in vision
( the four fundamental concepts of psycho - analysis 108 ) .
to be able to apprehend the difference and parallelism of these two modes of interpreting the closure inthe novel , this paper must rely on the instructive use of the mise - en - abyme as
representational gap or error
defined by debra shostak and steven weisenburger , and as opposed to the postmodernist understanding of the same iconic device as regressus ad infinitum . my interrogation will aim at unraveling the manifold aspects of the mise - en - abyme inherent in moon palace , such as its genealogical , representational , discoursive , iconic , and semiotic functions . yet , first we must look into the history of the concept .
the answer to how climate change will affect hindu - kush - himalaya depends on whom you ask . some will point at expected changes in climate , others will show what it may do to poor people , and some will express their concerns regarding the economies in the region .
whereas anamorphosis as a lacuna in the work of art emphasises how drawing the observer into the act of perception depends on a signifying point of overflowing negation in the center , blanchot’s concept underlines how both author and beholder disappear into the fissure of the openness deeply implemented within the core of the work .
what this means is , if you heat or cool electron - degenerate matter , then the nuclei move faster or slower just as they would in a normal gas . but unlike a normal gas , the electrons don ' t care and don ' t follow suit . they are not attached to any particular nucleus any longer and in fact , the only factor that has any effect on them is the struggle to push themselves farther apart and avoid the exclusion rule . that struggle results from the immense compression created by the immense gravity of the white dwarf , and gravity has nothing to do with temperature . thus , the electron gas responds only to changes in the mass of the white dwarf ( i . e . , to changes in its gravity ) , and not to changes in its temperature , which in turn means that a white dwarf does not change in size at all as it is heated or cooled .
the mise - en - abyme of the moon viewed from a room associated with fogg’s total failure to intentionally deprive himself of systematic beliefs results in a nominalization of the sublime ( ideological anchoring with the ideal other :
god
) . instead of effective self - realization through a passive opening of the subject to the world ( see the closure of the novel ) , here what we find is fogg’s virtual self - definition ( expressed in terms of seriate otherness ) . fogg’s imaginary selves disseminate through a condensed signifier ( the sign
moon palace
) , that is , through a vertiginous space reflected back to his room ( back to the metonymic associations in his name ) . as maurice blanchot states :

100 ) . terry eagleton expresses his concerns whether derrida’s positioning ethics and politics within a deconstructionalist theoretical framework is answering to ethical and political demands . this statement is strengthened by the derridean claim that no responsibility can be taken without taking that responsibility for something that is bound to prove itself to be ultimate undecidability . before turning to emmanuel levinas for a concept satisfying demands of ethics and politics both , i have to quote one of patricia merivale’s instructive observations once again :

orpheus’s gaze is orpheus’s ultimate gift to the work . it is a gift whereby he refuses , whereby he sacrifices the work , bearing himself toward the origin according to desire’s measureless movement − and whereby unknowingly he still moves toward the work , toward the origin of the work . then for orpheus everything collapses into the certainty of failure where there remains only , as compensation , the work’s uncertainty , for is there ever a work ? before the most convincing masterpiece , where the brilliance and resolution of the beginning shine , it can also happen that we confront something extinguished : a work suddenly become invisible again , which is no longer there , has never been there . this sudden eclipse is the distant memory of orpheus’s gaze ; it is the nostalgic return to the uncertainty of the origin ( emphasis added ) ( blanchot , 174 ) .
