In Chapters 2–8 the author considered a particular character, c1, and argued that there is a certain way of looking such that to have a visual experience with character c1 is to have a visual experience that is occurring in that way. In Chapter 9 he goes on to consider a variety of other characters, and argues that in each case the same thing is true: there is a certain way of looking such that to have a visual experience with that character is to have a visual experience that is occurring in that way. It is argued that the same thing is true of any character.

This chapter examines the characters and themes of the shooting scripts rather than of the three films themselves. It considers whether or not the screenwriters had written for Hitchcock in ways that suited his own particular visual style. These scripts represent the fullest extent of the collaborative process that began when the writer first sat with the director in his office to discuss the possibilities for narrative and character development inherent in the source material; they also highlight the particular verbal talents of the writers, talents that Hitchcock himself did not possess; and they demonstrate how the characters existed in Hitchcock's mind before the actors began to mold them to their own styles and personalities.

An ethics of engagement demands that the critic understand the means by which stories are didactic and enlist affect in their implicit and explicit appeals. The ability of screen stories to elicit sympathies, antipathies, allegiances, and other responses to fictional characters is a key element in their aesthetic success and in the rhetorical “case” that they make. This phenomenon—let us call it “character engagement”—is didactic to the core; by cueing “pro” and “con” attitudes toward characters, storytellers manipulate point of view, encourage audience desires for various narrative outcomes, and elicit particular moral emotions. This chapter examines the phenomenon of character engagement, and argues that screen stories have the capacity to influence viewers by eliciting allegiances for characters in such a way that moral and other kinds of judgment become confused. It uses the film Legends of the Fall to make that point.

This chapter reviews existing approaches to the metaphysics of concrete particular objects and positions the doctrine of hylomorphism with respect to competing accounts. The literature is divided over whether concrete particular objects are or are not further analyzable into constituents which do not themselves belong to the ontological category of concrete particular objects and in terms of which the character of these latter entities is to be explained. This chapter briefly surveys constituent ontologies (e.g., bundle theories or substratum theories) as well as non-constituent ontologies (e.g., Platonism or austere nominalism) and discusses prominent objections that have been raised against these accounts. These considerations in turn give rise to a set of desiderata and decision points which guide the development of a hylomorphic analysis of concrete particular objects in subsequent chapters.

This chapter considers the interplay between medieval Tristan romances and Tristan songs, music closely associated with the romances and indeed attributed to the character Tristan himself. In particular, the chapter looks at Marie de France’s lai ‘Chevrefoil’, and the anonymous thirteenth-century lai ‘Kievrefuel’, which is quite distinct from Marie’s narrative poem but evokes it in some particulars. The multiple relationships between different Tristan poems and Tristan tunes, intertwined and mutually evoking each other, allows us to ‘think [of] Romance’ as a larger, modular experience, a cultural game that can transcend an individual text and generate potentially limitless further texts. It also suggests a twelfth-century way of ‘thinking [with] Romance’ in a playful, creative way that both erases and accentuates the fictionality of the romance world and its characters.

This chapter discusses the character Apu, exploring how his appearance on the television show The Simpsons in the 1990s was a departure from previous Hollywood and television representations of South Asians in the United States. Whereas South Asians were previously depicted as brief visitors or exotic foreigners, Apu symbolizes a permanent Indian immigrant presence in the United States. Yet, his brown-voice performance racializes and differentiates him from other Americans. The chapter theorizes the use of brown voice and discusses how animated characters, in particular, become a significant subject to study vocal accents and voiceovers. Animated characters are unique because one of their most important defining features is their voice, and, thus, animation emphasizes the voice as a site of interest in thinking about racial performance.

This book uses semantic considerations to develop a metaphysical theory of the nature of the character of visual experience. By developing a theory of what we mean by the ‘look’ sentences that we use to describe the characters of our visual experiences, it develops a theory of what it is to have a visual experience with a certain character. The theory turns out to be an adverbial theory: for every character c there is a way of occurring w such that to have a visual experience with character c is to have a visual experience that is occurring in way w. There are various problems faced by adverbial theories; the book proposes solutions to these problems, drawing heavily upon particular features of the theory, especially upon its understanding of ways of occurring and the relations between them. There are various other phenomena that a theory of the character of visual experience ought to allow for and, even better, be able to explain; the book considers the extent to which the theory developed can allow for and explain them.

This chapter examines the way in which Bujold creates and presents character and personality. It focuses on depth and complexity of Bujold's characterization, with particular discussion of the relationship between Miles and his brother Mark, and between Miles and his cousin Ivan, in the Vorkosigan books. Bujold presents character and personality as created by culture, by nurture, and by experience. Genes, of course, remain at the root; and we are in a universe in which genes can be modified, before and after birth. Bujold creates character in a number of ways, but above all through two means: the choice of focalization and the description of people's interrelationships.

In this chapter a cinematic phenomenon is examined involving a crop of movies – including Prometheus, The Dark Knight Rises, Perfect Sense, Under the Skin, World War Z, and Cloud Atlas – set or filmed in Scotland. In these movies, Scottish settings, which in the past have commonly been mythologized as unique and deeply meaningful, instead recede into the background, becoming empty spaces for the unfolding of generic dramas. The chapter details how this phenomenon sometimes occurs by completely eradicating Scottish markers and sometimes by leaving Scottish markers intact. Martin Heidegger’s philosophy is drawn upon in order to understand the philosophical significance of this phenomenon. It is concluded that while serving nihilistically to undermine the mythos of Scotland’s distinctive, traditional character, this cinematic phenomenon nonetheless also reveals the potential for Scotland to be a place like any other, conferring it status as part of the wider, world community.

With a growing recognition of the potentially catastrophic impacts of human actions on current and future generations, people around the world are urgently seeking new, sustainable ways of life for themselves and their communities. What do these calls for a sustainable future mean for our current values and ways of life, and what kind of people will we need to become? Approaches to ethical living that emphasize good character and virtue are recently resurgent, and they are especially well-suited to addressing the challenges we face in pursuing sustainability. From rethinking excessive consumption, to appropriately respecting nature, to being resilient in the face of environmental injustice, our characters will be frequently tested. The virtues of sustainability—character traits enabling us to lead sustainable, flourishing lives—will be critical to our success. This volume, divided into three parts, brings together newly commissioned essays by leading scholars from multiple disciplines—from philosophy and political science, to religious studies and psychology. The essays in the first part focus on key factors and structures that support the cultivation of the virtues of sustainability, while those in the second focus in particular on virtues embraced by various non-Western communities and cultures, and the worldviews that underlie them. Finally, the essays in the third part address further particular virtues of sustainability, including cooperativeness, patience, conscientiousness, and creativity and open-mindedness. Together, these essays provide readers with a rich understanding of the importance and diversity of the virtues of sustainability.

The continuing television series Once upon a time (2011 – present) proposes unconventional politics of ‘becoming’ and engages in a discussion on the limits of body and soul, and those of females and animals in particular. The fairy-tale drama pushes fixed definitions of body and presents narratives of continuously inter-transforming characters. In the traditional telling of the story, through the act of cutting her way out of the wolf’s stomach, we see resistance in the character of Red Riding Hood. Once upon a time takes this resistance a step further by putting the wolf inside the girl. This brings out a question which serves as the focus of this chapter: What happens when the wolf is inside the girl? And, additionally: What kind of affects are born from this particular serial and televisual version of Red Riding Hood? Using Deleuze and Guattari’s notions ‘becoming-animal’ and ‘becoming-woman’, the analysis covers the story of mental transformation and corporeal mutation as developed in the episode, Red Handed in order to understand its political and ethical potential as well as its limits in relation to the twenty-first century mental, cultural and socio-political transformation.

Chapter 3 distinguishes four ways one might account for perceptual particular. We can take an epistemic approach and understand perceptual particularity in terms of a special epistemic relation to the particulars perceived. We can take an ontological approach and understand perceptual particularity in terms of the ontological dependence of the perceptual state on the particulars perceived. We can take a psychologistic approach and understand perceptual particularity in terms of the phenomenal character of perceptual states by arguing that phenomenal character is constituted by the particulars perceived. Finally, we can take a representational approach and understand perceptual particularity in terms of features of perceptual content. The chapter argues that perceptual particularity is best accounted for in terms of perceptual content rather than in terms of epistemic, psychologistic, or ontological dependency properties.

This work investigates worship and formation in view of Christian anthropology, particularly union with Christ. Traditions which value justification by faith wrestle to some degree with how to describe and encourage ethical formation when salvation and righteousness are presented as gracious and complete. The dialectic of law and gospel has suggested to some that forgiveness and the advocacy of ethical norms contend with each other. By viewing justification and formation in light of Christ’s righteousness which is both imputed and imparted, it is more readily seen that forgiveness and ethics complement each other. In justification, God converts a person, by which he grants new character. Traditional Lutheran anthropology says that this regeneration grants a new nature in mystical union with Jesus Christ. Considering Oswald Bayer’s “suffering” the word of Christ, Louis-Marie Chauvet’s “symbolic order” and Bernd Wannenwetsch’s understanding of worship as Christianity’s unique “form of life,” Grobien argues that worship practices are the foundational and determinative context in which grace is offered and in which the distinctively Christian ethos supports virtues consistent with Christian character. This understanding is also coordinated with Stanley Hauerwas’s narrative ethics and Luther’s teaching of virtue and good works in view of the Ten Commandments.

Vamsa is a dynamic genre of Buddhist history filled with otherworldly characters and the exploits of real-life heroes. These narratives collapse the temporal distance between Buddha and the reader, building an emotionally resonant connection with an outsized religious figure and a longed-for past. The fifth-century Pali text Mahāvamsa is a particularly effective example, using metaphor and other rhetorical devices to ethically transform readers, to stimulate and then to calm them. Reading the Mahāvamsa advocates a new, literary approach to this text by revealing its embedded reading advice (to experience samvega and pasada) and affective work of metaphors (the Buddha's dharma as light) and salient characters (nagas). Kristin Scheible argues that the Mahāvamsa requires a particular kind of reading. In the text’s proem, special instructions draw readers to the metaphor of light and the nagas, or salient snake-beings, of the first chapter. Nagas are both model worshippers and unworthy hoarders of Buddha’s relics. As nonhuman agents, they challenge political and historicist readings of the text. Scheible sees these slippery characters and the narrative’s potent and playful metaphors as techniques for refocusing the reader’s attention on the text’s emotional aims. Her work explains the Mahāvamsa’s central motivational role in contemporary Sri Lankan Buddhist and nationalist circles. It also speaks broadly to strategies of reading religious texts and to the internal and external cues that give such works lives beyond the page.

This chapter examines Korea's animation industry, which has not been a major cultural form in Hallyu research. It investigates the historical, cultural, and economic forces that have shaped Korea's animation characters in the context of the debates on globalization utilizing the framework of hybridity. It analyzes the texts of a few animation characters, including Pororo the Little Penguin, in order to understand the major reasons for the sudden growth of the Korean animation industry. In particular, it maps out the hybrid nature of Korean animation, which is the politicization of local popular culture. By using Korea's animations, it challenges the notation of the depoliticization of popular culture. Finally, given that American and Japanese animation characters have exerted a huge influence since the early development of Korean animation, and taking into account the inclusion of elements of hybridization in production, the chapter discusses the ways in which the domestic animation industry has become popular in the global market.

Chapter 1 introduces Aristotle’s infamous ethnographical comment in the Politics, which claims that the natural character traits a given tribe of people has, and the kind of natural political organization these traits give rise to, correlate with the environment and the region in which they live. Only those men whose natures are “well mixed” are to be selected as future citizens of ideal cities, since they are the “most easily led to virtue.” Subsequent sections analyze Aristotle’s biological discussions of natural character and show how the species-specific character profile a species of (human) animals has depends on the particular material mixture of their blood, and that by “well mixed” Aristotle has in mind blood that is hot, pure, and moist and that therefore gives rise to natural courage and intelligence. The chapter also shows how the various organs in the human body contribute to this “best” type of blood.

Where is my nephew?, asked Mr Jasper, wildly. 'Where is your nephew?' repeated Neveille. 'Why do you ask me?' 'I ask you,' retorted Jasper, 'because you were the last person in his company, and he is not to be found.' The Mystery of Edwin Drood, Dickens's last novel, lay unfinished at his death. Speculation remains rife as to its probably conclusion; evidence suggests that, fascinated as Dickens was by details of the plotting, his basic concern was for character and appropriate setting, in particular the character of the hero-villain, Jasper. The ancient city of Cloisterham, its cathedral a reminder of mortality, human frailty, and the lawful life, is an effective background for what Dickens daughter called a tale of 'the tragic secrets of the human heart'. Humour is provided by a host of characters ranging fro Mr Grewgious, the admirable though eccentric lawyer, and Miss Twinkleton, guardian of the Young Ladies' Seminary, to Durdles, the hard-drinking stonemason, and Deputy, the irreverent lodging-house boy. This edition contains Dickens's working plans for the novel, and the text is that of the authoritative Clarendon edition. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

Chapter 6 addresses Aristotle’s exclusion of women from full virtue by explaining their moral deficiencies in light of their presumed biological imperfections. Although formally identical to men, Aristotle believes that women, as a result of what happens to them during embryogenesis, are less perfect members of the human species due to their colder, earthier material nature. The particular natural character profile Aristotle attributes to women in the biological treatises, which is due to this particular material nature, accounts for his claims in the Politics that women can acquire only the “virtues of assistants” and that they are naturally being ruled by men. I also discuss Aristotle’s notorious claim (often ascribed to plain sexism) that women by nature have a deliberate capacity necessary for moral decision making but that it “lacks authority,” and his attribution of softness and weakness of will to them, and I offer psychophysical explanations for these moral deficiencies.

To the extent that these neo-Aristotelian value realisms offer multi-dimensional accounts of the good and very flexible appreciations of different virtues (of both character and art) in different contexts, they account well for the varieties of characters, actions, and works of art that we value. But it is not always easy to see exactly how the particularism fits with the objectivism. When there is that much variety in judgements of value, often indexed to local cultural or historical circumstance, then, even if it need not be true, the thought that such judgements are mere expressions of individual or social preference looms. When, in contrast, the overall theory of the good or the beautiful is given more shape and content, so that common features of beauty or goodness in different particulars are discernible, then the particularism lapses.

Peter Capusotto y sus videos is an Argentinean satirical show that criticizes the entertainment industry in social and political terms. Hosted by actor and comedian Diego Capusotto, the popular show is broadcast on TV Pública, the state channel in Argentina. Through fictional characters and a documentary/journalistic style, Capusotto ridicules celebrity culture and targets social stereotypes. Chapter 5 analyzes the role of the show in deconstructing and questioning key aspects of the local urban identity reflected in popular culture, more specifically in rock music (rock nacional), a genre with a particular evolution and relevance in the country. Through the analysis of Bombita Rodríguez, Violencia Rivas, and Micky Vainilla, some of Capusotto’s most famous characters, this chapter illustrates how the show’s satirical approach demystifies Argentinean identities that exist within the realm of media spectacle while exposing sociopolitical tensions after the 2001 socioeconomic crisis and during the Kirchner era.

Are philosophy and literary criticism forms of discourse with incommensurate aims and interests, or can they learn from each other? Max de Gaynesford addresses this question by exploring what it means to respond adequately to In the Heart of the Country (1977), one of Coetzee’s earlier fictions. Distinguishing between the procedures of philosophical analysis and literary criticism, de Gaynesford argues that the force of Coetzee’s metafictional approach in this text, which not only portrays literary characters but also stages the very question of what a character is, calls for philosophy and literary criticism to attune themselves to each other, to learn from each other’s distinctive modes of attention. And along the way, de Gaynesford’s chapter itself offers an exemplary act of such attunement, focusing particularly on issues like integrity and the use of brackets.
