query: Jon Snow is a book character.

pos: Jon Snow (character) Jon Snow is a fictional character in the A Song of Ice and Fire series of fantasy novels by American author George R. R. Martin , and its television adaptation Game of Thrones . He is a prominent point of view character in the novels , and has been called one of the author 's `` finest creations '' and most popular characters by The New York Times . Jon is a main character in the TV series , and his storyline in the 2015 season 5 finale generated a strong reaction among viewers . Speculation about the character 's parentage has also been a popular topic of discussion among fans of both the books and the TV series .   Jon is introduced in 1996 's A Game of Thrones as the illegitimate son of Ned Stark , the honorable lord of Winterfell , an ancient fortress in the North of the fictional kingdom of Westeros . Knowing his prospects are limited by his status , Jon joins the Night 's Watch , who guard the far northern borders from the wildlings who live beyond The Wall . As the rest of the Starks face grave adversity , Jon finds himself honor bound to remain with the Watch . In A Clash of Kings ( 1998 ) , he joins a scouting party investigating the growing threat from the otherworldly `` Others '' beyond the Wall , and manages to infiltrate the wildlings . Jon learns of their plans to invade Westeros in A Storm of Swords ( 2000 ) , and begins to fall in love with the fierce wildling woman Ygritte . He betrays them -- and Ygritte -- before they can attack , but the Night Watch 's victory comes at a heavy price for Jon . Now the Lord Commander of the Watch , he appears briefly in 2005 's A Feast for Crows . Jon returns as a prominent character in a A Dance with Dragons ( 2011 ) , working to negotiate an alliance between the Night 's Watch and the wildlings . The growing animosity he has attracted from among the Watch finally catches up with him , and he is forced to face the dire consequences .   Jon is portrayed by Kit Harington on the HBO series Game of Thrones . His storyline follows the character 's plot arc from the novel series , though season 6 of the TV adaptation continued on from the events of Martin 's latest published installment . Harington was nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series for the role in 2016 . He was also nominated for a Saturn Award for Best Supporting Actor on Television in 2012 and 2016 . He and the rest of the cast were nominated for Screen Actors Guild Awards for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series in 2012 , 2014 , 2015 and 2016 .

neg: White Witch Jadis is the main antagonist of The Magician 's Nephew and of The Lion , the Witch and the Wardrobe in C. S. Lewis 's series , The Chronicles of Narnia . She is commonly referred to as the White Witch in The Lion , the Witch and the Wardrobe , as she is the Witch who froze Narnia in the Hundred Years Winter .   Some recent editions of the books include brief notes , added by later editors , that describe the cast of characters . As Lewis scholar Peter Schakel points out , the description there of Jadis and the Queen of Underland ( the main antagonist of The Silver Chair ) `` states incorrectly that the Queen of Underland is an embodiment of Jadis '' . Beyond characterising the two as `` Northern Witches '' , Lewis 's text does not connect them . See Lady of the Green Kirtle for further discussion .

neg: Snow-Walker Snow-Walker is a trilogy written by author Catherine Fisher .

neg: For a Breath I Tarry `` For a Breath I Tarry '' is a highly regarded 1966 post-apocalyptic novelette by Roger Zelazny . Taking place long after the self-extinction of Man , it recounts the tale of Frost , a sentient machine ( '' ... a silver-blue box , 40x40x40 feet , ... featured in whatever manner he chose . '' ) Though Man has disappeared , his robotic creations ( and their creations in turn ) continue to function .   For ten thousand years Frost sat at the North Pole of the Earth , aware of every snowflake that fell . He monitored and directed the activities of thousands of reconstruction and maintenance machines . He knew half the Earth , as gear knows gear , as electricity knows its conductor , as a vacuum knows its limits . At the South Pole , the Beta-Machine did the same for the southern hemisphere .   Along the way , the story explores the differences between Man and Machine , the former experiencing the world qualitatively , while the latter do so quantitatively . `` A machine is a Man turned inside-out , because it can describe all the details of a process , which a Man can not , but it can not experience that process itself as a Man can . '' This is illustrated by a conversation Frost has with another machine named Mordel .   `` Regard this piece of ice , mighty Frost . You can tell me its composition , dimensions , weight , temperature . A Man could not look at it and do that . A Man could make tools which would tell Him these things , but He still would not know measurement as you know it . What He would know of it , though , is a thing that you can not know . '' `` What is that ? '' `` That it is cold . ''   Driving the plot and setting its tone are allusions to other literature , most specifically the first chapter of the Book of Job , both in situation and language , as verses are both quoted directly and paraphrased . Additionally , echoes of the first three chapters of the Book of Genesis appear . Finally , Frost and Mordel enter into a Faustian bargain , with , however , better results than in the original .   The novelette has appeared in collections of Zelazny 's works and in anthologies .   The title is from a phrase in A. E. Housman 's collection A Shropshire Lad .

neg: Sansa Stark Sansa Stark is a fictional character created by American author George R. R. Martin . She is a prominent character in Martin 's award-winning A Song of Ice and Fire series .

While absent from the fifth novel A Dance with Dragons as the books are separated geographically , Sansa is confirmed to return in the forthcoming next book in the series , The Winds of Winter .   In HBO 's adaptation of the series , Game of Thrones , Sansa Stark is played by Sophie Turner . The character has received critical acclaim , being praised as the 4th greatest character in the series by Rolling Stone . She and the rest of the cast were nominated for Screen Actors Guild Awards for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series in 2012 , 2014 , 2015 and 2016 .

neg: Character (arts) A character ( sometimes known as a fictional character ) is a person or other being in a narrative work of art ( such as a novel , play , television series , or film ) . The character may be entirely fictional or based on a real-life person , in which case the distinction of a `` fictional '' versus `` real '' character may be made . Derived from the ancient Greek word χαρακτήρ , the English word dates from the Restoration , although it became widely used after its appearance in Tom Jones in 1749 . From this , the sense of `` a part played by an actor '' developed . Character , particularly when enacted by an actor in the theatre or cinema , involves `` the illusion of being a human person . '' In literature , characters guide readers through their stories , helping them to understand plots and ponder themes . Since the end of the 18th century , the phrase `` in character '' has been used to describe an effective impersonation by an actor . Since the 19th century , the art of creating characters , as practiced by actors or writers , has been called characterisation .   A character who stands as a representative of a particular class or group of people is known as a type . Types include both stock characters and those that are more fully individualised . The characters in Henrik Ibsen 's Hedda Gabler ( 1891 ) and August Strindberg 's Miss Julie ( 1888 ) , for example , are representative of specific positions in the social relations of class and gender , such that the conflicts between the characters reveal ideological conflicts .   The study of a character requires an analysis of its relations with all of the other characters in the work . The individual status of a character is defined through the network of oppositions ( proairetic , pragmatic , linguistic , proxemic ) that it forms with the other characters . The relation between characters and the action of the story shifts historically , often miming shifts in society and its ideas about human individuality , self-determination , and the social order .

She subsequently appeared in Martin 's A Storm of Swords , A Feast for Crows , A Dance with Dragons and will appear in the upcoming novel The Winds of Winter .   Gilly is portrayed by Hannah Murray in the HBO television adaptation .

neg: Emma Lathen Emma Lathen is the pen name of two American businesswomen : an economist Mary Jane Latsis ( July 12 , 1927 -- October 29 , 1997 ) and an economic analyst Martha Henissart ( born 1929 ) , who received her B.A. in physics from Mount Holyoke College in 1950 .   Henissart and Latsis met as graduate students at Harvard . As Lathen , they wrote numerous mystery novels starring John Putnam Thatcher , a Wall Street banker . The pseudonym is constructed from two authors ' names `` M '' of Mary and `` Ma '' of Martha , and `` Lat '' of Latsis and `` Hen '' of Henissart . They also wrote under the pseudonym R. B. Dominic ; all the Dominic stories feature Congressman Benton Safford as the sleuth . `` The authors have a distinctive talent for writing clearly and entertainingly about complicated financial intrigues , for combining these business matters with current events , and for creating tightly plotted mysteries that produce fascinating and civilized novels . ''   Each book features events in a specific industry or activity with which Thatcher or Safford become involved in the course of their work . The books often refer to specific public events in their plotting ; for example , When in Greece is mostly set in that country during the Colonels ' Revolution , and Going for the Gold involves the 1980 Winter Olympics at Lake Placid . Others relate to more general social and other trends , such as Death Shall Overcome which links with the Civil Rights Movement .

neg: Bookwriter The bookwriter is the member of a musical 's writing team who creates the book -- the musical 's plot , character development , and dramatic structure . Essentially , the bookwriter is the playwright of the musical . He or she works very closely in collaboration with the lyricist and composer to create an integrated piece of drama .   There is a common misconception that the bookwriter merely writes the dialogue ; though the book does include the musical 's spoken text , it is much more than that , defining and organizing the dramatic action of the entire piece , including action that is musicalized by the songwriter ( s ) . Even `` sung-through , '' `` operatic , '' or `` through-composed '' musicals , where there is little , if any , spoken text , require as much contribution from a bookwriter as do musicals with extensive dialogue scenes .   The bookwriter is often also the musical 's lyricist , composer , or director .   Category : Occupations in music

Peter appears in six more books growing from a small boy in The Snowy Day to pre-adolescence in A Letter to Amy .

neg: Snow goose The snow goose ( Chen caerulescens ) , consisting of both a white phase and blue phase ( Blue Goose ) , is a North American species of goose commonly collectively referred to as `` light geese '' . Its name derives from the typically white plumage . The genus of this bird is disputed . The American Ornithologists ' Union and BirdLife International place this species and the other `` white geese '' in the Chen genus , while other authorities follow the traditional treatment of placing these species in the `` gray goose '' genus Anser . The scientific name is from the Latin anser , `` goose '' , and caerulescens , `` bluish '' , derived from caeruleus , `` dark blue '' .   This goose breeds north of the timberline in Greenland , Canada , Alaska , and the northeastern tip of Siberia , and spends winters in warm parts of North America from southwestern British Columbia through parts of the United States to Mexico . They fly as far south as Texas and Mexico during winter , and return to nest on the Arctic tundra each spring . It is a rare vagrant to Europe , but a frequent escape from collections and an occasional feral breeder . Snow geese are visitors to the British Isles where they are seen regularly among flocks of barnacle , Brent and Greenland white-fronted geese . There is also a feral population in Scotland from which many vagrant birds in Britain seem to derive .   In Central America , vagrants are frequently encountered during winter .

neg: The Last Battle The Last Battle is a high fantasy novel for children by C. S. Lewis , published by The Bodley Head in 1956 . It was the seventh and final novel in The Chronicles of Narnia ( 1950 -- 1956 ) . Like the others it was illustrated by Pauline Baynes and her work has been retained in many later editions .   The Last Battle is set almost entirely in the Narnia world and the English children who participate arrive only in the middle of the narrative . The novel is set some 200 Narnian years after The Silver Chair and about 2500 years since the creation of the world narrated in The Magician 's Nephew . A false Aslan is set up in the north-western borderlands and conflict between true and false Narnians merges with that between Narnia and Calormen , whose people worship Tash . It concludes with termination of the world by Aslan , after a `` last battle '' that is practically lost .   Macmillan US published an American edition within the calendar year .   Lewis and The Last Battle won the annual Carnegie Medal from the Library Association , recognising the year 's best children 's book by a British subject .

neg: A Book of Giants A Book of Giants is a 1963 anthology of 13 fairy tales from Europe that have been collected and retold by Ruth Manning-Sanders . It is one in a long series of such anthologies by Manning-Sanders . It was the first anthology to receive the familiar `` A Book of ... '' title that Manning-Sanders would become notable for .   This book was first published in the United Kingdom in 1962 , by Methuen & Co. Ltd. . It has been used in schools as a study aid .   Some of the tales from this book are also included in A Choice of Magic ( 1971 ) by Manning-Sanders . And some of the tales from this book are included in Folk and Fairy Tales ( 1978 ) by Manning-Sanders .   And in the foreword , Manning-Sanders discusses the long-ago roots of tales about giants : `` The stories in this book are very old , and they come from many countries . We do n't know who first told the story of Jack and the Beanstalk ; but it has always been a favourite , and it used to be hawked around England in those little stitched-together pamphlets , called chapbooks , which travelling pedlars sold to the countryfolk for a penny or two each . ''   The author adds : `` You will notice that the giants , wherever they come from , have one thing in common : they are all very stupid , and the way to overcome them is to use your wits . ''

neg: Mac Flecknoe Mac Flecknoe ( full title : Mac Flecknoe ; or , A satyr upon the True-Blew-Protestant Poet , T.S. ) is a verse mock-heroic satire written by John Dryden . It is a direct attack on Thomas Shadwell , another prominent poet of the time . It opens with the lines :   All human things are subject to decay , And when fate summons , monarchs must obeyWritten about 1678 , but not published until 1682 ( see 1682 in poetry ) , `` Mac Flecknoe '' is the outcome of a series of disagreements between Thomas Shadwell and Dryden . Their quarrel blossomed from the following disagreements : `` 1 ) their different estimates of the genius of Ben Jonson , 2 ) the preference of Dryden for comedy of wit and repartee and of Shadwell , the chief disciple of Jonson , for humors comedy , 3 ) a sharp disagreement over the true purpose of comedy , 4 ) contention over the value of rhymed plays , and 5 ) plagiarism . '' Shadwell fancied himself heir to Ben Jonson and to the variety of comedy which the latter had commonly written . Shadwell 's poetry was certainly not of the same standard as Jonson 's , and it is possible that Dryden wearied of Shadwell 's argument that Dryden undervalued Jonson . Shadwell and Dryden were separated not only by literary grounds but also by political ones as Shadwell was a Whig , while Dryden was an outspoken supporter of the Stuart monarchy .   The poem illustrates Shadwell as the heir to a kingdom of poetic dullness , represented by his association with Richard Flecknoe , an earlier poet already satirized by Andrew Marvell and disliked by Dryden , although the poet does not use belittling techniques to satirize him . Multiple allusions in the satire to 17th-century literary works , and to classic Greek and Roman literature , demonstrate Dryden 's complex approach and his mastery over the mock-heroic style .   The poem begins in the tone of an epic masterpiece , presenting Shadwell 's defining characteristic as dullness , just as every epic hero has a defining characteristic : Odysseus 's is cunning ; Achilles 's is wrath ; the hero of Spenser 's The Faerie Queene is of holiness ; whilst Satan in Paradise Lost '' has the defining characteristic of pride . Thus , Dryden subverts the theme of the defining characteristic by giving Shadwell a negative characteristic as his only virtue .  Dryden uses the mock-heroic through his use of the heightened language of the epic to treat the trivial subjects such as poorly written and largely dismissible poetry . The juxtaposition of the lofty style with unexpected nouns such as ` dullness ' provides an ironic contrast and makes the satiric point by the obvious disparity . In this , it works at the verbal level , with the language being carried by compelling rhythm and rhyme .

Displaying great power while still a boy , he joins the school of wizardry , where his prickly nature drives him into conflict with one of his fellows . During a magical duel , Ged 's spell goes awry and releases a shadow creature that attacks him . The novel follows his journey as he seeks to be free of the creature .   The book has often been described as a Bildungsroman or coming of age story , as it explores Ged 's process of learning to cope with power and come to terms with death . The novel also carries Taoist themes about a fundamental balance in the universe of Earthsea , which wizards are supposed to maintain , closely tied to the idea that language and names have power to affect the material world and alter this balance . Although the structure of the story is similar to that of a traditional epic , critics also described it as subverting this genre in many ways , such as by making the protagonist dark-skinned , in comparison to more typical white-skinned heroes .   A Wizard of Earthsea is widely regarded as a classic of fantasy and young-adult literature and was one of the final recipients of the Lewis Carroll Shelf Award . The book was widely influential within the genre of fantasy ; Margaret Atwood , for instance , called A Wizard of Earthsea one of the `` wellsprings '' of fantasy literature . Le Guin would later write five subsequent books that , together with A Wizard of Earthsea , are referred to as the Earthsea Cycle : The Tombs of Atuan ( 1971 ) , The Farthest Shore ( 1972 ) , Tehanu ( 1990 ) , The Other Wind ( 2001 ) , and Tales from Earthsea ( 2001 ) . George Slusser has described the series as a `` work of high style and imagination '' .

neg: Encyclopaedia of the Social Sciences The Encyclopaedia of the Social Sciences is a specialized fifteen-volume Encyclopedia first published in 1930 and last published in 1967 . It was envisaged in the 1920s by scholars working in disciplines which increasingly were coming to be known as `` Human - '' or `` Social Sciences . '' The goal was to create a comprehensive synthesis of the study of human affairs as undertaken by practitioners of all fields involved in such study . The parameters of what would come to be known as `` Social Science '' were in many ways initially established and defined by this publication .   The Encyclopaedia 's founding organizations included the American Anthropological Association , the American Association of Social Workers , the American Economic Association , the American Historical Association , the American Political Science Association , the American Psychological Association , the American Sociological Society , the American Statistical Association , the Association of American Law Schools , and the National Education Association . It was edited by American economists Edwin Robert Anderson Seligman and Alvin Saunders Johnson . Seligman and Johnson solicited contributions from many of the most known and respected scholars in their fields , and established many links with European scholars in the process . The Rockefeller Foundation , Carnegie Foundation , and Russell Sage Foundation provided initial financial support , and Macmillan was selected as publisher .   The international network of social scientists developed in the process of creating the Encyclopaedia would prove especially important during the Nazi occupation of Europe , during which many contributing scholars fled persecution for their ideas . Under Johnson 's invitation , several of these scholars would come to New York City and form the `` University in Exile , '' a specialized graduate school now known as the New School for Social Research .   The Encyclopaedia was last printed in 1967 , then in its 16th edition . It was succeeded by the International Encyclopedia of the Social Sciences , edited by David L. Sills , and also published by MacMillan .

neg: Baby boomers Baby boomers are the demographic cohort following the Silent Generation . There are no precise dates when the cohort birth years start and end . Typically , they range from the early-to-mid 1940s and end from 1960 to 1964 . Increased birth rates were observed during the post -- World War II baby boom making the baby boomers a relatively large demographic cohort .   The term `` baby boomer '' is also used in a cultural context , so it is difficult to achieve broad consensus of a precise date definition . Different people , organizations , and scholars have varying opinions on who is a baby boomer , both technically and culturally . Ascribing universal attributes to such a generation is difficult , and some believe it is inherently impossible , but many have attempted to determine their cultural similarities and historical impact , and the term has thus gained widespread popular usage .   Baby boomers are associated with a rejection or redefinition of traditional values . Many commentators , however , have disputed the extent of that rejection , noting the widespread continuity of values with older and younger generations . In Europe and North America , boomers are widely associated with privilege , as many grew up in a time of widespread government subsidies in post-war housing and education , and increasing affluence .   As a group , baby boomers were the wealthiest , most active , and most physically fit generation up to the era in which they arrived , and were amongst the first to grow up genuinely expecting the world to improve with time . They were also the generation that received peak levels of income ; they could therefore reap the benefits of abundant levels of food , apparel , retirement programs , and sometimes even `` midlife crisis '' products . The increased consumerism for this generation has been regularly criticized as excessive .   One feature of the boomers was that they have tended to think of themselves as a special generation , very different from those that had come before . In the 1960s , as the relatively large numbers of young people became teenagers and young adults , they , and those around them , created a very specific rhetoric around their cohort , and the changes they were bringing about . This rhetoric had an important impact in the self perceptions of the boomers , as well as their tendency to define the world in terms of generations , which was a relatively new phenomenon . The baby boom has been described variously as a `` shockwave '' and as `` the pig in the python . ''   The term `` Generation Jones '' is sometimes used to describe those born between 1954 and 1965 . The term is typically used to refer to the later years of the Baby boomer cohort ( 1954-1960 ) and the early years of Generation X ( 1961-1965 ) .

neg: Ikemen Ikemen is a term commonly used in Japan since the mid-2000s to refer to metrosexuals .   The term ikemen is derived from the Japanese words ikeru or iketeru and menzu . Ikeru and iketeru mean `` cool '' , `` good '' and `` exciting '' , while menzu stands for `` men '' . This term has been  used to reference good looking men featured in Japanese pop culture .   Ikemen are typically characterized as being sharply dressed individuals with slanted , intelligent eyes , husky voices , slender wrists and fingers , a manly build , an unruffled appearance , pale skin , and clean smelling with an air of mystery around them . Ikemen are  typically reserved with the ability to become passionate in their interests with the impression that they are literary geniuses .

neg: Kiss (Irish magazine) Kiss ( stylised as KISS ) was an Irish magazine aimed at a teenage market containing knowledge about adolescent matters such as fashion advice , confessions , features on teenage cultural icons , relationship advice and problem pages with solutions especially designed for teenage readers . It is part of the VIP publishing franchise of Michael O'Doherty . Kiss was launched on 31 October 2002 as the first of O'Doherty 's solo business ventures . He had previously engaged in a number of co-ordinated business ventures in Ireland with his former business partner John Ryan ; Kiss succeeded the co-owned establishments of Magill in 1997 and VIP in 1999 and preceded later titles such as the glossy monthly targeted at women in the age group of eighteen to thirty-four Stellar and the failed New York Dog venture in New York City . Kiss is published at 2-4 Ely Place in Dublin 2 . Kiss '' 's rivals are the United Kingdom 's Bliss and Sugar .   Upon its launch Kiss was lauded in the Irish media for its attempts to contribute to a more liberal and sexualised Ireland , one where the influence of the Roman Catholic Church had declined dramatically in the preceding decade . Only three decades previously , such teenage-oriented magazines were much more reserved in their content and approach and even the titles , i.e. Jackie and Blue Jeans , were not as outspoken as the word `` kiss '' in capitalised letters . Kiss was launched by O'Doherty 's publishing company as a response to the increasing popularity of similar , albeit British-based , publications such as Bliss and Sugar . It launched on 31 October 2002 , at the original ( much-deflated by current standards ) price of $ 2.50 and aimed at female readers between the ages of fourteen and seventeen . The first issue featured heavily its mantra of dealing with teenage problems , including articles on school bullying and the difficulties of blushing , written in a `` chatty and informative '' manner so as not to `` patronise '' the target audience . However O'Doherty is adamant that his magazine will not encourage young children to `` sleep with their boyfriends by providing How-To-Pleasure-Your-Fella features '' . To supplement its tone Kiss employs experts on what teenagers consider fashionable , with its so-called `` agony aunt '' being Sarah Scully , a child psychologist in Saint James 's Hospital , Dublin . Upon its launch the magazine was edited by Susan Vasquez , now editor of O'Doherty 's Stellar '' . The magazine is currently edited by Nathalie Màrquez Courtney .   Kiss published its last issue in September 2014 .

neg: 1950s American automobile culture 1950s American automobile culture has had an enduring influence on the culture of the United States , as reflected in popular music , major trends from the 1950s and mainstream acceptance of the `` hot rod '' culture . The American manufacturing economy switched from producing war-related items to consumer goods at the end of World War II , and by the end of the 1950s , one in six working Americans were employed either directly or indirectly in the automotive industry . The United States became the world 's largest manufacturer of automobiles , and Henry Ford 's goal of 30 years earlier -- that any man with a good job should be able to afford an automobile -- was achieved . A new generation of service businesses focusing on customers with their automobiles sprang up during the decade , including drive-through or drive-in restaurants and more drive-in theaters ( cinemas ) .   The decade began with 25 million registered automobiles on the road , most of which predated World War II and were in poor condition ; no automobiles or parts were produced during the war owing to rationing and restrictions . By 1950 , most factories had made the transition to a consumer-based economy , and more than 8 million cars were produced that year alone . By 1958 , there were more than 67 million cars registered in the United States , more than twice the number at the start of the decade .   As part of the U.S. national defenses , to support military transport , the National Highway System was expanded with Interstate highways , beginning in 1955 , across many parts of the United States . The wider , multi-lane highways allowed traffic to move at faster speeds , with few or no stoplights on the way . The wide-open spaces along the highways became a basis for numerous billboards showing advertisements .   The dawning of the Space Age and Space Race were reflected in contemporary American automotive styling . Large tailfins , flowing designs reminiscent of rockets , and radio antennas that imitated Sputnik 1 were common , owing to the efforts of design pioneers such as Harley Earl .

neg: World League for Sexual Reform The World League for Sexual Reform was a League for coordinating knowledge about the enhancement of sexual function . In 1921 Magnus Hirschfeld organised the First Congress for Sexual Reform , which led to the formation of the League . Ralf Dose has written an overview of the League . Congresses were held in Copenhagen ( 1928 ) , London ( 1929 ) , Vienna ( 1930 ) , and Brno ( 1932 ) . Congress speakers included : Magnus Hirschfeld , Norman Haire , Vera Brittain , Dora Russell , Charles Vickery Drysdale ( from the Malthusian League ) , Stella Browne , Ernst Gräfenberg , Marie Stopes , M. D.

Robinson ( an American contraception crusader ) and Jack Flügel , a Freudian psychologist who assisted Norman Haire and Dora Russell organize the Congress and also led the Men 's Dress Reform Party  Although not a speaker , Albert Einstein was in contact with the Congress .   In 1928 Francis Turville-Petre , British archaeologist and friend of Christopher Isherwood , stayed at Hirschfeld 's Institute of Sexual Research in Weimar Berlin . Whilst based in Berlin , Turville-Petre was an active member of the Scientific Humanitarian Committee , which campaigned for gay legal reform and tolerance , and attended the 2nd Congress in Copenhagen in 1928 .   In 1929 Magnus Hirschfeld presided over the third international congress held at Wigmore Hall , London . Harley Street sexologist , Norman Haire as secretary and Dora Russell as treasurer , jointly organized the event . Magnus Hirschfeld 's speech praised British scientists as `` distinguished pioneers in eugenics '' . A number of British feminists attended the 1929 conference , including Naomi Mitchison ( whose paper was `` Some Comment on the Use of Contraceptives by Intelligent Persons '' ) , Dora Russell ( `` Marriage and Freedom '' ) , Janet Chance , a pioneer of abortion-law reform ( `` A Marriage Education Centre in London '' ) , Vera Brittain , a writer and pacifist ( `` The Failure of Monogamy '' ) and Stella Browne ( `` The Right to Abortion '' ) .   The WLSR dissolved after its meeting in 1932 ; a planned meeting in Moscow never took place .  Many of the WLSR 's books and records were destroyed by the Nazis during a raid in Berlin on the Institut für Sexualwissenschaft in May 1933 .

neg: Walter Scott's Personality Parade `` Walter Scott 's Personality Parade '' is a column in Parade magazine featuring celebrity gossip . As of 2001 Edward Klein is the author of the column , which is in the inside cover of the magazine .   For a 33 year period beginning with the column 's establishment in 1958 , it was written by Lloyd Shearer while he used the name Walter Scott . In this column he discussed rumors about celebrities using a question and answer style . Joyce Wadler of The New York Times stated that the column 's readership was 50 million `` in its heyday '' . Elaine Woo of the Los Angeles Times wrote that `` It may have been the most widely read column in the country '' under Shearer and that under Klein it continued to be the `` most popular feature '' in the magazine .   Lloyd Shearer 's assistants sorted through reader mail to separate what Woo described as `` those that were confusing or from crackpots , who were as legion as his legitimate and well-placed sources . '' Under Shearer the column received around 4,000 to 7,000 reader letters . One given topic may be the subject of up to 100 of those letters at a time . Shearer 's children often assisted Shearer with his publication .   His son Derek Shearer , along with Lloyd Shearer 's editor and other family members , stated that the questions printed in the column were composites of those submitted by readers and that Lloyd Shearer himself did not make any of the questions . Wadler stated `` it was known that Mr. Shearer wrote many of the questions '' . Woo wrote that `` Some journalists suggested that he made up many questions to suit his own agenda . ''   During the time he wrote the column Shearer had copyrighted its name . During Shearer 's rule , popular publications and political magazines analyzed `` Personality Parade . '' A compilation of several columns , Parade : The Best of Walter Scott 's Personality Parade From the Fifties through the Nineties , was published in 1995 .

neg: Julian Mandel Julian Mandel ( 1872 Alsace -- 1935 Paris ) , also Julien Mandel ( French spelling ) was one of the best-known commercial photographers of female nudes of the early twentieth century . He worked in Paris and his signature photography became known in the 1910s and was published through the mid-1930s by such firms as Alfred Noyer , Les Studios , P-C Paris , and the Neue Photographische Gesellschaft .   He produced erotic postcards . The models often are found in highly arranged classical poses , and were photographed in-studio and outdoors . The images are artfully composed with exquisite tones and soft lighting -- showing a particular texture created by light rather than shadow .   Reportedly , Mandel was a member of , and participated in , the German avant-garde `` new age outdoor '' or `` plein air '' movement . Numerous pictures sold under this name feature natural settings , playing on the ultra pale , uniform skin tones of the women set against the roughness of nature .   The nude photographs were marketed in a postcard-sized format , but as A Brief History of Postcards explains : `` A majority of the French nude postcards were called postcards because of the size . They were never meant to be postally sent . It was illegal to send such images in the post ( see History of erotic photography ) . The size enabled them to be placed readily into jacket pockets , packages , and books .   J. Mandel usually appears on the front of these card-sized photographs , being one of the few photographers of the day to stamp or sign a name on the front of works . Large numbers were sold .   Julian Mandel has been compared to Julian Walery who also created `` plein-air '' and exquisite deco-style nudes in the 1920s .

neg: Wigwag (magazine) Wigwag was an American magazine published from 1988 until 1991 .   Founded by Alexander `` Lex '' Kaplen , who worked at The New Yorker , Wigwag eschewed celebrity coverage in favor of personal and literary writing . A test issue was put on newsstands in the summer of 1988 , and the magazine formally debuted in October 1989 . The magazine attracted writers such as Peter Matthiessen , Terry McMillan , Garry Wills , Alex Heard , Sousa Jamba and Nancy Franklin , but despite a circulation of 120,000 , and despite being financially successful , ceased publication when the Gulf War broke out in 1991 and the economy entered a recession . It published its last issue in February 1991 . In its brief lifetime it reached a circulation of close to 200,000 and became a brand name signifying family-feeling and an appreciation of the qualities of non-metropolitan America .   The legend of Wigwag 's founding by a group of young exiles from The New Yorker -- an exodus which followed The New Yorker 's acquisition by Conde Nast and Conde Nast 's subsequent dismissal of The New Yorker 's longtime editor William Shawn -- attracted an enormous amount of attention to its launch and early publication . Once launched , it quickly became a success d'estime , and critics often called it the `` Anti-Spy '' -- in reference to the funny , cruel and cynical New York magazine of that name . Many saw the two magazines as rivals for media attention -- neither survived the 1991 recession ( although Spy lingered on in a brief afterlife ) . Contemporary observers thought that the `` parent ship , '' The New Yorker itself , then edited by Robert Gottlieb , also saw itself as threatened by Wigwag during Wigwag 's lifetime . Wigwag proposed a kind of counter-reality to the sophistication which magazines like The New Yorker and Spy aspired to -- offering , instead of The New Yorker 's famed `` Talk of the Town '' section , its own titled opening section , `` Letters from Home . ''   Notable staffers at Wigwag include Nancy Holyoke , who went on ( with the help of Harriet Brown , another Wigwag editor , now an associate professor at the S. I. Newhouse School of Public Communications ) to found American Girl magazine at Pleasant Company in Wisconsin , Caroline Fraser , the author of a noted history of the Christian Science Church , and Evan Cornog , now associate dean of the Columbia Graduate School of Journalism . One of the most significant contributors to Wigwag 's identity was its art director , the illustrator and designer Paul Davis . Many have observed that Wigwag 's editorial and design innovations under Kaplen and Davis were later adopted by Tina Brown and implemented at The New Yorker when she became its editor .

Sex advice columns can usually be found in alt weekly newspapers , women 's magazines , health or fitness magazines , and student newspapers . While some are written by trained sexologists , many are penned by people lacking credentials in human sexuality and relationships , yet willing to divulge their opinions or personal bedroom antics .   The television series Sex and the City protagonist Carrie Bradshaw was a sex columnist , which author Candace Bushnell modeled after herself in her original non-fiction book based on a column of the same name . The show , which first aired in 1998 , is credited with the increase of sex columnists found in college campus newspapers and blogs , such as at Ivy League colleges and many other schools . One such columnist , Meghan Bainum , at the University of Kansas , Lawrence , placed in the 42nd annual William Randolph Hearst Foundation Journalism Awards Program ( 2001 -- 2002 ) for her column .   Anka Radakovich was the first of a new breed of sex columnists for whom `` every detail of the writer 's psyche is splayed across the page ... confessional journalism at its most intimate '' . Radakovich had written for the old Details magazine when it was a chronicle of downtown fashion and night life . After James Truman became editor-in-chief and transformed Details into a men 's magazine , he offered Radakovich a column in September 1990 . She became the first modern-day magazine sex columnist working for a mainstream men 's publication .

neg: Café society Café society was the description of the `` Beautiful People '' and `` Bright Young Things '' who gathered in fashionable cafes and restaurants in New York , Paris , and London beginning in the late 19th century . Maury Henry Biddle Paul is credited with coining the phrase `` cafe society '' in 1915 . Lucius Beebe created the term `` chromium mist '' for the cafe society lifestyle he chronicled in his weekly column , `` This New York , '' for the New York Herald Tribune during the 1920s and 1930s .   They attended each other 's private dinners and balls and took holidays in exotic locations or at elegant resorts .  In the United States , café society came to the fore with the end of Prohibition in December 1933 and the rise of photojournalism , to describe the set of people who tended to do their entertaining semi-publicly , in restaurants and night clubs and who would include among them movie stars and sports celebrities . Some of the American night clubs and New York City restaurants frequented by the denizens of café society included El Morocco , the Stork Club , Restaurant Larue , and the 21 Club . A complete history of New York café society , illustrated with photographs by Jerome Zerbe , was published by McFarland Publishing in 2015 .

neg: Unsimulated sex Unsimulated sex is the presentation in a film of sex scenes where the actors engage in an actual sex act , and are not just miming or simulating the actions . At one time in the United States such scenes were restricted by law and self-imposed industry standards such as the Motion Picture Production Code . Films showing explicit sexual activity were confined to privately distributed underground films , such as stag films or `` porn loops '' . Beginning in the late 1960s , most notably with Blue Movie by Andy Warhol , mainstream cinemas began pushing boundaries in terms of what was presented on screen . Although the vast majority of sexual situations depicted in mainstream cinema are simulated ( in early pornography , the main actors engaged in simulated sex , with inserts placed in the film ) , on rare occasions actors engage in real sex . The difference between these films and pornography is that , while such scenes might be considered erotic , the intent of these films is not solely pornographic .   Notable examples include two of the eight Bedside-films and the six Zodiac-films from the 1970s , all of which were produced in Denmark and had many pornographic sex scenes , but were nevertheless considered mainstream films ( they all had mainstream casts and crews , and premiered in mainstream cinemas ) . The last of these films , Agent 69 Jensen i Skyttens tegn , was made in 1978 . From the end of the 1970s until the late 1990s it was rare to see hardcore scenes in mainstream cinema , but this changed with the success of Lars von Trier 's The Idiots ( 1998 ) , which heralded a wave of art-house films with explicit content , such as Romance ( 1999 ) , Baise-moi ( 2000 ) , Intimacy ( 2001 ) , Vincent Gallo 's The Brown Bunny ( 2003 ) , and Michael Winterbottom 's 9 Songs ( 2004 ) . Some simulated sex scenes are sufficiently realistic that critics mistakenly believe that they are real , such as the cunnilingus scene in the 2006 film Red Road .

neg: Columbia University rape controversy In April 2013 , Emma Sulkowicz , an American fourth-year visual arts major at Columbia University in New York City , filed a complaint with Columbia University requesting expulsion of fellow fourth-year student and German national , Paul Nungesser , alleging he had raped her in her dorm room on August 27 , 2012 . Nungesser was found not responsible by a university inquiry .   In May 2014 , Sulkowicz filed a report with the New York Police Department ( NYPD ) , but declined to pursue an investigation after Sulkowicz discovered the case could extend past her graduation , when she would probably want to `` erase all of -LSB- her -RSB- memories of Columbia '' . Sulkowicz further stated that NYPD officers `` badly mistreated '' her and `` were dismissive of what she had to say '' . The district attorney 's office interviewed Sulkowicz and Nungesser , but did not pursue charges , citing lack of reasonable suspicion .   Afterwards , Sulkowicz focused her senior thesis on a work of performance art entitled Mattress Performance ( Carry That Weight ) which involved Sulkowicz carrying a mattress wherever she went on campus in protest of what she describes as `` Columbia University 's mishandling of her sexual assault complaint '' . Nungesser called Sulkowicz 's allegations `` untrue and unfounded '' and described her mattress piece as an act of bullying intended to force him to leave Columbia .   In April 2015 , Nungesser filed a sexual discrimination lawsuit against Columbia , its board of trustees , its president Lee Bollinger , and Sulkowicz 's supervising art professor Jon Kessler , alleging their negligence in preventing his harassment .   In the complaint Nungesser states Sulkowicz 's allegation of rape is false and made in response to unreciprocated desire for a serious relationship therefore allowing the performance is harassment and a violation of his rights . District Court Judge Gregory H. Woods dismissed the lawsuit but allowed Nungesser to refile an amended suit .
