This document provides an overview and analysis of Ken Kesey's novel One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and the 1975 film adaptation. It summarizes that the novel is narrated by the character Chief Bromden and explores his perspective, including surreal elements, while the film takes a more realistic approach and emphasizes the story of Randle McMurphy.

The grotesque contradicts what is natural and “correct” with unnaturalness and blends elements that do not fit together (Perttula 2011, 35). This makes such occurrences distasteful to the reader. In the Warhammer 40,000 universe, we are dealing with issues of technological advancement and bioethics, which cause wariness, disgust, revulsion and a fear of maltreatment of others.
This presentation will explore the concept of the monsters of the mind in Horus Rising: The seeds of heresy are sown. The text contains numerous, challenging moral dilemmas that challenge our own perception of what is right and wrong, by disrupting our logical thinking and forcing us to accept viewpoints and concepts that clash with our own rationality.
It is imperative that we evaluate our own perception of technology, ethics and morality, as these are becoming evermore intertwined. We must ask ourselves to what extent are we willing to encroach on our humanity in favour of technological advancement? Is it acceptable to impose technology and empirical doctrine on those not willing to accept them? If we do not come up with definitive answers to these questions, our humanity may succumb to the monsters of our minds.

Julia lays out the case for disability studies as a form of activism, suggests ways to integrate disability in requirement-level curricula, and demonstrates how end-of-term student projects encourage students to become small-scale public disability advocates.
Part of the CUNY CRIPPING* THE CURRICULUM FACULTY SHOWCASE

[*The reference to the historically derogatory term “cripple” is intentional. It draws on Crip Theory and the Crip Justice movement, which posit disability as a valuable identity and challenge the traditional understanding of disability as tragic and undesirable. Cripping points to the systemic exclusion of disabled people, especially those who are of color, members of LGBTQ+ community, linguistically diverse speakers, and those with other intersecting identities.]

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
3. Ken Kesey published One Flew
Over the Cuckoo’s Nest in 1962
• Set in an Oregon State mental hospital
• Focused on the roles of Randle Patrick McMurphy
and “Chief” Bromden
• Story shows how people who refuse to adapt to
standard social conventions—people who don’t “fit
in”—are locked up and forced into conformity
4. Grounded in 1960s
antipsychiatry movement
• The term “antipsychiatry”
originated in the 1960s to
describe a broad-based
movement that questioned the
legitimacy of standard psychiatric
theory and practice. The
movement specifically challenged
the validity of psychiatric
categories, diagnostic practices,
and common forms of treatment
(1).
5. Grounded in 1960s antipsychiatry movement
• The antipsychiatry movement was motivated by anger at the
perceived arbitrariness of psychiatric diagnostic practice as well
as outrage at the apparent inhumanity of certain treatments,
such as electroconvulsive therapy and long-term involuntary
hospitalization (2). Specific parts of the critique propelled
reform, including rapid deinstitutionalization and attempts to
improve the codification and reliability of psychiatric categories
and diagnostic practices embodied in DSM-III and standardized
clinical interviews.
6. Grounded in 1960s
antipsychiatry movement
• Nevertheless, mainstream
psychiatry—the body of accredited
personnel working in psychiatry and
the common practices, treatments,
theories, and categorizations they
employ—rejected the underlying
critique that psychiatry was little
more than a pseudoscientific agent
of social control.
7. essential critiques: ableism & rampant
misogyny
Kill or cure: another disability snuff film: once McMurphy is
disabled, his character is seen as better off dead: murder as
“mercy killing”
Women in the film are either sex workers or “ball cutters,”
dominating or dominated: assault and exploitation of women is
portrayed as necessary to human (male) survival
8. essential themes
power & resistance
structural &
institutional
ableism, racism,
homophobia
Christian allegory

12. Bromden & McMurphy each express resistance
to the social machine …
“The ward is a factory for the Combine. It’s for
fixing up mistakes made in the neighborhoods
and in the schools and in the churches, the
hospital is. When a completed product goes
back out into society, all fixed up and good as
new … it brings joy to the Big Nurse’s heart;
something that came in all twisted different is
now a functioning, adjusted component …”
“ … the court ruled that I’m a psychopath. …
Now they tell me a psychopath’s a guy fights
too much and fucks too much … “
13. In Ken Kesey’s BOOK,
Bromden is the NARRATOR
That means that One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s
Nest is HIS story, tells what happens to
McMurphy but from Bromden’s point of view.
The narrative includes many surreal scenes
where the reader is not sure if Bromden is
hallucinating, or, overmedicated, or, if he’s
experiencing an alternate reality.
“… a whole wall slides up, reveals a huge room
of endless machines stretching clear out of
sight, swarming with sweating, shirtless men
…”
The reader is invited to understand the story
from Bromden's perspective, to respect and
try to understand his way of seeing things.
14. The 1975 film version takes a
different narrative approach
McMurphy is more clearly the hero
Bromden does not seem to have any
psychiatric disability
The film emphasizes realism, no
hallucinations or challenges to ordinary
reality
Bromden is a secondary character
