Sub-genre 1 - Vampires + Gothic
Vampires have long been figures of folklore that were believed to rise from the grave at night to feed on human blood. In the 18th century, mass hysteria around vampirism emerged in Europe as diseases with vampire-like symptoms spread. Today, vampires are often depicted in popular culture as attractive yet demonic beings with heightened senses and abilities who engage in romantic relationships and feed on blood in a sexualized way. The Gothic genre emerged in the 18th century and involves supernatural, religious and horrific themes that stir fears and desires in readers.
the vampires2
Vampires are mythological or folkloric revenants that are said to subsist by feeding on the blood of the living. In folklore, vampires were often described as bloated and ruddy or dark in appearance. Belief in vampires was common in many cultures but the term "vampire" became popularized in the 18th century in Western Europe, spreading from Eastern Europe and the Balkans. This led to mass hysteria and dead bodies sometimes being staked. Modern conceptions generally view vampires as fictional but some folkloric beliefs still exist in some cultures.

Ebola

While Ebola was first discovered in the 1970s in central Africa, it has since had several outbreaks and become a global threat without borders. Ebola is a double-stranded RNA virus that has left scientists struggling to develop effective treatments. There are concerns that if a cure is not found, Ebola could become as widespread and deadly as some of the most devastating diseases in history like AIDS, cancer, and heart disease.
Vampires english presentation
This document discusses various aspects of vampires including whether they are myth or reality, how one can become a vampire through biting or food, physical characteristics like lack of reflection, ways to fight vampires such as weapons and maintaining a safe home, the connection between vampires and porphyria, their origins in figures like Vlad the Impaler and connections to popular culture through works like Bram Stoker's Dracula.
vapires real or not
Vampire beliefs originated from historical figures like Vlad Tepes and folklore of revenants in medieval Europe. Certain birth defects were seen as signs that a person may return from the dead as a vampire. Traditional vampire protection methods included carrying salt or birdseed to distract a vampire from chasing, or staking suspected vampires in their graves. While some animals like bats truly feed on blood, the consumption of human blood poses serious health risks due to iron toxicity, so the existence of human vampires is questionable.
General history of dogs
There is no incongruity in the idea that in the very earliest period of man's habitation of this world he made a friend and companion of some sort of aboriginal representative of our modern dog, and that in return for its aid in protecting him from wilder animals, and in guarding his sheep and goats, he gave it a share of his food, a corner in his dwelling, and grew to trust it and care for it

2) Traces of indigenous dog populations are found around the world, with exceptions only on isolated islands. Dogs remained wild in ancient Eastern civilizations but were kept as domesticated companions and bred into varieties in Assyria and Egypt.
3) Despite the vast differences between modern dog breeds, their skeletons closely resemble wolves, suggesting a common ancestry. Dogs and wolves share similar gestation periods and behaviors.
General history of dogs
1) Early humans likely formed partnerships with wolves or jackals by providing them food and shelter in exchange for protection and help herding livestock. Over time, these animals grew accustomed to living with humans.
2) Traces of indigenous dog populations are found around the world, except for some island regions. Dogs remained wild in ancient Eastern lands but were kept as companions and selectively bred in ancient Assyria and Egypt, where distinct varieties emerged.
3) Anatomically, wolves and dogs are nearly identical with small differences in behavior. The native dogs of all regions closely resemble the local wolf populations, suggesting dogs descended from multiple wolf species and jackals that were domesticated in different parts of the world.

Fiskar’S Project Orange Thumb
An alien is sent to Earth by the United Nations to learn about gardening from a human, but cannot speak the human's language. The alien likely already has preconceptions about Earth's plant life from television broadcasts that have reached deep into space. Plants have often been portrayed as threatening or dangerous in movies, such as in Little Shop of Horrors, Attack of the Killer Tomatoes, Day of the Triffids, and Batman & Robin, where Poison Ivy was a villain who could control plants.
Ordinary Life, Democracy, and Justice in Ancient Greece, Rome, and Israel
Ordinary Life, Democracy, and Justice in Ancient Greece, Rome, and IsraelReflections on Morality, Philosophy, and History
The document discusses how life in the ancient world differed greatly from the modern world. Some key differences mentioned include higher rates of disease and infant mortality in the ancient world, lack of modern medicine, presence of wild animals, lack of technology, different styles of clothing, housing, and roles of slaves. The document also discusses differences in justice systems between ancient societies like Greece and Israel compared to modern systems, as well as differences in societal structure like ancient societies being more warrior-based. Finally, the document notes it will record a future video discussing what life was like for women in ancient Greece, Rome, and Israel.1007 Great plague
Between the Black Death and the Great Plague of 1665, there was some progress in people's understanding of disease, but also many misconceptions remained. While ideas about miasma and bad air influencing disease spread persisted, prevention methods during the Great Plague like isolating victims and cleaning homes showed some grasp of contagion. However, cures like amulets and potions displayed limited medical knowledge. Overall, knowledge advanced somewhat in recognizing contagion while outdated beliefs in astrology and imbalances remained as well.
Faustus
The document summarizes the play The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus by Christopher Marlowe. It provides background on Faustus, stating that he was a German scholar who became so skilled in divinity that he was awarded a doctorate, but then became arrogant and sought knowledge through necromancy instead of theology. It then lists the dramatis personae and begins excerpting sections of dialogue and summary from the play itself.
Are vampires real
The document discusses the question of whether vampires really exist by exploring both sides of the argument. It notes that some believe vampires could have been real people who were misdiagnosed as dead or acted strangely due to rabies. However, others argue that vampire stories come from fiction and there is no scientific evidence they exist. The document also considers a middle view that some historical accounts could suggest vampires may have been real. It then explores how vampires are described in folklore and debates their origins and global legends throughout history.
Urban legends
Urban legends are stories that are circulated as true, often involving horrifying or humorous elements happening to friends or family members. Common examples described in the document include Bloody Mary, where a spirit may appear in a mirror when her name is called three times, and stories of alligators living in the New York City sewer system. Urban legends are often plausible enough to be believed but are generally not factual stories. They are typically passed along through oral or written forms from person to person.

A Tale of Violence Animal Farm as an Allegory of Social Order.pdf
This document provides a critical analysis of George Orwell's Animal Farm as an allegory of social order and violence. It discusses how Animal Farm draws on the ancient tradition of the fable by using anthropomorphized animals to represent human behaviors and social dynamics. While specifically commenting on the Russian Revolution, the story's themes are meant to have wider applications. The analysis examines Animal Farm through the lenses of Walter Benjamin's work on the relationship between violence and law/order. It argues the novel depicts the problematic nature of how new political/social orders attain and maintain power through violence and ambiguous uses of force.
The Drama Review
This document discusses the relationship between dance and philosophy through two theoretical essays featured in TDR: The Drama Review.
The introduction frames the series' goal of placing emerging choreographers alongside new critical voices from diverse international traditions, in order to promote an intercultural exchange of dance theories beyond the U.S. academy.
The two featured essays approach dance differently but allow for a rethinking of dance as a cultural, political, and artistic practice. Jose Gil's "Paradoxical Body" examines dance at the level of "the body" while Peter Sloterdijk's "Mobilization of the Planet from the Spirit of Self-Intensification" considers dance at the level of "movement."

Snakes Typecasted For Evil
Snakes are often feared and misunderstood creatures that are commonly depicted as evil in stories and films. In reality, snakes play an important role in the ecosystem by preying on rodents and spreading fewer diseases. While their venom can be deadly if not treated, it is also used to create life-saving antivenoms and medicines. Snakes will avoid conflict and only strike defensively as a last resort. With increased understanding of snakes' behaviors and benefits to the environment, humans can learn to respect snakes instead of fearing or killing them needlessly.

The Fascinating World of Bats: Unveiling the Secrets of the Night
The Fascinating World of Bats: Unveiling the Secrets of the Night
Bats, the mysterious creatures of the night, have long been a source of fascination and fear for humans. With their eerie squeaks and fluttering wings, they have captured our imagination and sparked our curiosity. Yet, beyond the myths and legends, bats are fascinating creatures that play a vital role in our ecosystem.
There are over 1,300 species of bats, ranging from the tiny Kitti's hog-nosed bat to the majestic flying foxes. These winged mammals are found in almost every corner of the globe, from the scorching deserts to the lush rainforests. Their diversity is a testament to their adaptability and resilience.
Bats are insectivores, feeding on a vast array of insects, from mosquitoes to beetles. A single bat can consume up to 1,200 insects in an hour, making them a crucial part of our pest control system. By preying on insects that damage crops, bats save the agricultural industry billions of dollars each year.
But bats are not just useful; they are also fascinating creatures. Their ability to fly in complete darkness, using echolocation to navigate and hunt, is a remarkable feat of evolution. They are also social animals, living in colonies and communicating with each other through a complex system of calls and body language.
Despite their importance, bats face numerous threats, from habitat destruction to climate change. Many species are endangered, and conservation efforts are necessary to protect these magnificent creatures.
In conclusion, bats are more than just creatures of the night; they are a vital part of our ecosystem, playing a crucial role in maintaining the balance of nature. By learning more about these fascinating animals, we can appreciate their importance and work to protect them for generations to come. So, let us embrace the beauty and mystery of bats, and celebrate their unique place in our world.

Rats Info
- 1. PET RATS By Alex Richardson
- 2. Bad name They’ve understandably got a bit of bad press during the plague. But they really are quite loveable.
- 3. Pet rats The normal type of rat that is domesticated is the Fancy Rat. The name fancy rat derives from the idea of animal fancy or the phrase, "to fancy" (to like, or appreciate).
- 4. Pet or Tasty Treat? Rat meat is a food that, while taboo or even forbidden in some cultures, is a dietary staple in others. Taboos include fears of disease or religious prohibition, but in many places the high number of rats has led to their incorporation into the local diet.
- 5. History The Pied Piper One of the oldest and most historic stories about rats is The Pied Piper of Hamelin, in which a rat-catcher leads away an infestation with enchanted music—the piper is later refused payment, so he in turn leads away the town's children. This tale, placed in Germany around the late 13th century, has inspired the realms of film, theatre, literature, and even opera. The subject of much research, some theories have intertwined the tale with events related to the Black Plague, in which black rats may have played an important role. Fictional works based on the tale that focus heavily on the rat aspect include Pratchett's The Amazing Maurice and his Educated Rodents, and Belgian graphic novel Le Bal du Rat Mort (The Ball of the Dead Rat).
- 6. Hairless and Dumbo Theres a lot of variety when it comes to rats.
