Death was on my heel when I landed at the feet of an unwilling savior. That hope was quickly snuffed out, leaving me all alone in the world. I fled the west coast with a small group, chasing a sliver of hope. There was power rumored in the east, settlements with wind energy that were still thriving amidst the chaos. One minute there was Instagram and ice cream and the next, nothing.

More generally speaking, the term spectacle is often employed in a pejorative manner to criticize public entertainments for manipulating the public or distracting it from more-important social and political issues. This is why modern conceptions of the spectacle tend to be associated with a very passive notion of spectatorship. But the difference between a and the spectacle is not a trivial one, as the idea of one system of images implies that individuals have little power to contest dominant constructions. There are debates as to when the era of the spectacle begins, with Debord’s account dating it to the 1920s. As noted in Crary 1989 (cited under General Overviews), however, perhaps Debord’s most significant contribution is to attach the definite article to spectacle, making it appear as an ideologically unified system of images. ![]() The concept of the spectacle is most closely associated with the work of French Marxist Guy Debord, who in 1967 characterized postwar consumer capitalism as the “society of the spectacle.” While it is now common to use the term loosely to dismiss visually distracting entertainments, Debord had a very specific definition of the spectacle as a social relationship mediated by advertising and other mass media images. ![]() ![]() The winner will be chosen by rafflecopter and announced here as well as emailed and will have 48 hours to respond or a new winner will be chosen.

The whole falling in love with the lord who rescues her is also a bit too fairy tale. Gabi can ride horseback and fight with a sword from the get-go this is explained via activities she used to do with her father but is a bit too convenient for my taste. There are a couple things about this story that are a bit too fairy tale and convenient. Marcello is betrothed to another woman but finds himself drawn to Gabi despite the political ramifications. Gabi has to learn how to navigate this strange time, find her sister, find a way back home, and hopefully guard her heart from the lord of the castle Marcello. ![]() When they place their hands on the hand prints they are sent back in time, separated, and find themselves in the middle of a power struggle between two Italian families.
