Q1.
• A common criticism that is raised for the fantasy series is the ambiguity of the plot.As the
majority of the story is narrated by a single character,who frequently embellishes his own
deeds,there’s really no way to determine the accuracy of events.The author himself made this
clear in a recent interview,saying,"It is very fair to wonder,'How much of this is real? How
much of this is true?' Unfortunately,any answer that I gave to that would be destructive to the
story ... If I were gonna go back and mythologize my life, I would leave out so many of the
terrible choices that I made.”
• As music forms an integral part of the series,it seems only reasonable that Lin Manuel Miranda
is producing a series on the books.Which series?

Q2. X, Y?
• A 14th century Italian mercenary group,X, is credited with introducing to Italy the practice of
dismounting men-at-arms in battle, a practice already commonplace in the battles of the Hundred
Years' War in France. It was well known by a particular name, the origins of which are unsure.The
traditional view is that it is a reference to the brightly polished armour of the men-at-arms.
However,William Caferro has suggested that it was because the Company originally wore _____
surcoats.This view might be supported by the fact that mercenaries led byArnaud de Cervole in
France at this time were known as bandes blanches.
• X shares its name with a historical adventure written byArthur Conan Doyle, and is set during the
HundredYearsWar.
• Y is a series of dark fantasy novels written by Glen Cook that follows an elite mercenary
unit, through roughly forty years of its approximatelyfour hundred-year history.The series has 9
novels, some of which are titled Dreams of Steel, Shadows Linger,Bleak Seasons.

A.
• X –White Company
• Y – Black Company

Q3. X, Y?
• David S. Goyer,a well known screenwriter,caused controversy when he said the following in
the podcast Scriptnotes:
• "I have a theory about X.Which was created by a man, right? And at the time in particular I
think 95% of comic book readers were men and certainly almost all of the comic book writers
were men. So theY was this classic male power fantasy.It’s like, most of the people reading
comic books were these people like me who were just these little kids getting the shit kicked
out of them every day...And so then they created X,right?Who was still smart... I think X is
the chick that you could fuck if you wereY, you know what I’m saying? … X was the extension
of the male power fantasy.So it’s like if I’m going to be this geek who becomes theY then let’s
create a giant porn star that only theY could fuck.”

A.
• X - She Hulk
• Y - Hulk

Q5.
• The original code-name for the project was Earthlings, a rarely used slang term.
• Contemporary use of the phrase as an alias dates to at least the 1981 play My Blue Heaven by
Jane Chambers,in which a character stammers out:"You're really? X? Lord God, I never met
one before.”
• Historical use of X as code language can also be found in the sentence of a letter written by
Daphne du Maurier to Ellen Doubleday:"By God and by Christ,if anyone should call that love
by that unattractive word [redacted],I'd tear their guts out.”
• X?

Q6.
• X is the heroine ofWilliam Shakespeare'sThe Merchant ofVenice.A rich, beautiful, and
intelligent heiress,she is bound by the lottery set forth in her father's will, which gives
potential suitors the chance to choose between three caskets composed of gold, silver and
lead. If they choose the right casket.
• Y is an actress who took her screen name from X, aiming to reinvent herself.A partial
filmography includes Ally McBeal,Better Off Ted, and Nip/Tuck.
• Y?

A.

Q7. X?
• The X is a highland region in the central United States.

Q8. WHAT ART?
• Patrick Bateman fromAmerican Psycho is a pretty cultured person.
• Aside from listening to the Huey Lewis and the News,he also appreciates some very
appropriate art that is thematically relevant to the novel the film is based on.

Q9. PHRASE?
• The phrase traces back to a particularly ominous warning in Shakespeare's tragedy Romeo and
Juliet.In the scene, Romeo gushes about Juliet to a character named Friar Laurence,talking about
what a joy it is just to lay eyes on her.The full quote from Friar Laurence reads as follows.
• “_____ _______ ________ ____ _______ ____
• And in their triumph die, like fire and powder,
• Which as they kiss consume: the sweetest honey
• Is loathsome in his own deliciousness
• And in the taste confounds the appetite:
• Therefore love moderately; long love doth so;
• Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.”

Q10. X, BOOK?
• The “X Hypothesis" is a fictional hypothesis which states that unmarried men are better able
to execute the best,most dispassionate decisions in crises—in this case,to disarm the nuclear
weapon intended to prevent the escape of organisms from the laboratory in the event the
auto-destruct sequence is initiated.
• In the novel,the explanation is a page in a RAND Corporation report of the results of test
series wherein different people were to make command decisions in nuclear and biological
wars and chemical crises.Hall is briefed on the Hypothesis after his arrival atWildfire.

A.
• Odd Man Hypothesis
• Andromeda Strain

Q11. FILM?
• One of the greatest films of all time, it’s remembered for its atmospheric use of black-and-
white expressionist cinematography by Robert Krasker,with harsh lighting and distorted
"Dutch angle" camera technique.
• Combined with the iconic theme music, seedy locations and acclaimed performances from the
cast,the style evokes the atmosphere of an exhausted,cynical, post-warVienna at the start of
the Cold War.
• The film shares its title with a philosophical argument made by Plato criticising his ownTheory
of Forms.

Q12. WHO?
• Martin Scorsese,as well as having a near-encyclopaedic knowledge of cinema, knows his arty
onions – and it figures that he’d be a fan of Italian master X, the original master of chiaroscuro.
Between Scorsese’s religious background and his eye for light and shade,the paintings became
an obvious inspiration for Mean Streets in particular. Scorsese toldThe Guardian:
• “I was instantly taken by the power of the pictures.Initially, I related to them because of the
moment that he chose to illuminate in the story.You come upon the scene midway and you’re
immersed in it. It was like modern staging in film: it was so powerful and direct.He would have
been a great filmmaker,there’s no doubt about it. He sort of pervaded the entirety of the bar
sequences in Mean Streets.It’s basically people sitting in bars,people at tables,people getting
up.The Calling Of St Matthew,but in NewYork!”

Q13. PAINTING?
• Lars vonTrier’s Melancholia is heavily influenced by the painting.The image of Justine floating
downstream with her wedding bouquet was inspired by an 1852 painting — the iconic
character who became a symbol of female “madness” (mirrored in the troubled Justine).
• Image follows.

Q14. X?
• Le X is a French daily morning newspaper founded in 1826 and published in Paris.The oldest
national daily in France, Le X is one of the two French newspapers of record,along with Le
Monde, and is one of the most widely respected newspapers in the world. It has also attracted
controversy for its right wing reporting,which was replied to with:
• "Our editorial line pleases our readers as it is, it works.I don't see why I should change it. [...]
We are a right-wing newspaper and we express it clearly, by the way. Our readers know it, our
journalists too.There's nothing new to that!"

MF Doom’s song X ends with:
• I like ice cream
• We could skip the weddin'
• Have a nice dream
• She only let him stick the head in

Q15. FITB.
• Part of Pakula’s paranoia trilogy, ___ ___ __________ ___ is a 1976American political
thriller film about theWatergate scandal,based on the 1974 non-fiction book of the same

Q0. FITB.
• To "trip ___ _____ _________" is to dance nimbly or lightly, or to move in a pattern to
musical accompaniment.It is often used in a humorous vein.As early as 1908 it was viewed as a
cliché or hackneyed phrase.Grammatically,it is an example of a constructionally idiosyncratic
idiom, in that it is impossible to construct a meaningful literal-scene from the formal structure.
• Come, and trip it as ye go
• On ___ _____ _________ toe,
• And in thy right hand lead with thee,
• The mountain-nymph, sweet Liberty;

Q1.
• Inspired by theWold Newton Universe,and the Anno Dracula series,Neil Gaiman wrote the
metafictional short story X. Originally published in an anthology called “Shadows Over Bakers
Street”,it combines the worlds of detective stories,and weird fiction.The story won the 2004
HugoAward for Best Short Story,and the 2005 Locus Award for Best Novelette.
• What was the name of the colourful novel?

Q2. X?
• American 20th century artist X's paintings have an empty, desolate quality that fitted the isolated
setting rather well.This particular 1925 painting,of a Gothic farmhouse on a lonely plain,informed
the look in some detail, with the steps up the hill from the motel even offering a visual nod to the
railroad of the painting.X was a keen fan of cinema and was apparently delighted that his painting
had contributed to the film.
• "I told him [Perkins] that I felt that ______ _____, if he were a painting,would be painted by X,
and he agreed.So we had kind of that discussion, writer and actor, about the character. He had an
incredible grasp on ______ _____ and the situation that he was in.I thinkTony Perkins must have
known what it was like to be trapped.In some way, somehow,he knew what trapped meant,just as I
did.And,while we didn’t talk about that aspect of it, it was clear to me early on that he was
becoming ______ _____.”

Q3. FITB.
• ______ __ ___ ____ ____ ______ is a musical with music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim
and book by James Lapine. It was inspired by the French pointillist painterY's painting.The plot
revolves around George,a fictionalized version of Y, who immerses himself deeply in painting
his masterpiece,and his great-grandson (also named George),a conflicted and cynical
contemporary artist.The Broadway production opened in 1984.
• X, the subject of the painting,is located at the very gates of Paris, in the communes of Neuilly-
sur-Seine and Levallois,Hauts-de-Seine. It is 7 km distant (in a straight line) from the towers of
Notre Dame and 3 km from the Etoile. It has about 4,000 inhabitants and is nearly 2 km long
and nearly 200m wide at its widest point. Its name roughly translates as “Island of the Bowl”.

A.
• Sunday in the ParkWith George

Q4. X, Y?
• The X is a 2016 South Korean erotic psychological thriller film directed by Park Chan-wook
and starring Kim Min-hee, Kim Tae-ri, Ha Jung-woo and Cho Jin-woong, inspired from the novel
Fingersmith by Welsh writer SarahWaters,with the setting changed fromVictorian era Britain
to Korea under Japanese colonial rule.
• The plot features a conman operating under the sobriquet of "Count Fujiwara" hires a
pickpocket named Sook-hee from a family of con artists to become the maid of the mysterious
Japanese heiress Lady Hideko, whom Fujiwara plans to marry and to commit to an asylum in
order to steal her inheritance.

• Y is a name that’s kinda sorta related to X. It depicts a totalitarian,sexist world of forced
surrogate motherhood.
• Due to a recent television adaptation in 2017, there was much debate on whether parallels
could be drawn between the series (and by extension,the book it is based on) and American
society following DonaldTrump's and Mike Pence's election as President of the United States
andVice President of the United States,respectively.

A.
• X –The Handmaiden
• Y –The Handmaid’s Tale

Q5. X, WHAT IS BEING TALKED
ABOUT?
• Using the tales and descriptions of its characters to paint an ironic and critical portrait of
English society at the time, and particularly of the Church,X's use of such a wide range of
classes and types of people was without precedent in English.Although the characters are
fictional, they still offer a variety of insights into customs and practices of the time. Often, such
insight leads to a variety of discussions and disagreements among people in the 14th century.
• For example, although various social classes are represented in these stories and all of the
pilgrims are on a spiritual quest,it is apparent that they are more concerned with worldly
things than spiritual.
• Structurally,the collection resembles Giovanni Boccaccio'sThe Decameron,which X may have
read during his first diplomatic mission to Italy in 1372.

• "Let's go back to biblical times,1823!"
• "So if the Bible is StarWars, then ___ ____ __ ______ is Return of the Jedi? I'm interested.”
• "I believe that God lives on a planet called Kolob!
• I believe that Jesus has his own planet as well
• And I believe that the Garden of Eden was in Jackson County, Missouri”
• "Hasa Diga Eebowai"

Q9. Y?
• This painstakingly staged photograph by Canadian artist JeffWall was inspired by X's 1952
novelY, which explores the struggle of an unnamed AfricanAmerican man in the mid twentieth
century.In the prologue,he describes his basement room lit by 1369 light bulbs that are
powered by illegally siphoned electricity.With one of his trademark elaborate sets,Wall has
given detailed form to the image Ellison conjured in his mind.
• You don’t have to read the book to understand the photograph;the protagonist muses “I am
_________, understand,simply because people refuse to see me.”

Q10. X, NOVEL?
• "The Limits of Individual Plasticity" is a short essay written by science fiction author X in 1895.
In it,X speculates his theories on the plasticity of animals, explaining that the default biological
form of an animal may be altered in a way that it would continue to survive even if it, in any
way, no longer resembles its inherent form.This could, according to X, theoretically be
achieved through surgical,or chemical modification.
• He was fully aware that surgical modification is only a physical change,and would not alter an
animal's genetic blueprint. He made note that should an animal be surgically modified, their
offspring would most likely retain their parent creature's original physical form.
• Many of these ideas were presented in an 1896 novel by the same author.

A.
• H. G.Wells
• Island of Dr. Moreau

Q11.
• "One striking quality of the film is its beauty.______'s pictorial eye is not often enough
credited.His films always upstage it with their themes.We are focused on what happens,and
there are few 'beauty shots'.Look here at his control of the color palette,his off-center
compositions, of the dramatic counterpoint of light and dark. Here is a film that does honor to
the seriousness of vampires.No, I don't believe in them.But if they were real,here is how they
must look.”
• The director made the film as a homage to the classic 1927 F.W. Murnau film, but with one
important difference.
• What film, and what difference?

A.
• Nosferatu theVampyre
• The main character was called Dracula

Q12. FITB
• The 1995 film follows a puppeteer who finds a portal that leads into a particular actor's mind.
According to the screenwriter,"The screenplay was always "Being ____ _________", even
before I had any expectation that ____ _________ would even read the script." He chose
him because he believed there to be "an enigmatic quality about him that works",though
_________ was partly chosen because of the sound of his name in repetition.
• The screenwriter explained that "When we were thinking of alternatives,we found that a lot
of them weren't fun to say." _________ was "half intrigued and half horrified" when he first
read the script,but he eventually agreed to star in the film.

Q13. X, Y?
• “X's vision of recreating the huddle and glow of a pre-electrical age was miraculously put on
screen.The stately,painterly,often determinedly static quality ofY was at least in part dictated
by this stylistic choice — lit only by candles,the actors in the many sequences of dining and
gambling were under instruction to move as slowly as possible, to avoid underexposure.But it
fits perfectly with X's gilded-cage aesthetic — the film is consciously a museum piece, its
characters pinned to the frame like butterflies.For the stunningly beautiful exteriors,in which
Ireland plays itself,England, and Prussia during the SevenYears’War,X and [cinematographer
John] Alcott looked to the landscapes ofWatteau and Gainsborough;the day-lit interiors owe a
lot to [William] Hogarth,with whom Thackeray had always been fascinated.”

A.
• Kubrick
• Barry Lyndon

Q14. WHO?
• There are radical discrepancies between the two authors in their conception and delineation
of female characters;X being far more naturalistic and egalitarian than her contemporary in
this respect.X's work is marked by a naturalism that is not measured up to by either Dickens
or Thackeray.She exhibits the interior lives,and interesting and expanded minds of her
heroines with a skill, eloquence,and power which is matched by few,if any,of her
contemporaries.Her heroines were highly intelligent,intellectual women.
• She was a fangirl ofThackeray,even dedicating her most famous novel to him.A blue and white
dress,called theThackeray dress is pictured in the next slide. It has traditionally been described
as the one she wore to a dinner given by Thackeray in her honour,at his own home on 12 June
1850.

Q15. FITB.
• ____ __ _ ____ ____ is an alternate history novel by Jasper Fforde.The plot follows the
protagonistThursday Next,who discovers discover an original manuscript of Shakespeare's lost play
Cardenio in the library of a politician.
• An innovative idea in the books is that of bookjumping,the method by which one enters the
fictional world:those with an inherent talent for it can literally read themselves into the world of
fiction andThursday does so. It turns out that there is a police force within literature (both fiction
and non-fiction),Jurisfiction,which employs both fictional characters and real people ranging from
the Cheshire cat and the Red Queen to Ambrose Bierce andVoltaire, and ensures that literature
continues in an orderly fashion.
• Thurday gets trapped within the chaos, and has to find her way out of the mess while locating
Cardenio.
