Disciples of a crazy saint: The Buchen of Spiti
No full textThe Buchen are specialist religious performers from Spiti, a culturally Tibetan valley in North India. They are widely known for performing an elaborate exorcism ritual that culminates in a slab of stone, marked with images of demons, being smashed on a man’s belly. In winter groups of Buchen perform their religious theatre, a localised form of Ache Lhamo, the Tibetan Opera. This book, published in conjunction with an exhibition at the Pitt Rivers Museum at the University of Oxford is the result of a research project and substantial fieldtrip funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council, with project partnership from the Pitt Rivers Museum.
Patrick Sutherland has been photographing in Spiti for nearly two decades and working with the Buchen for several years.
The book consists of a self-reflexive essay by Patrick Sutherland illustrated with historical photographs and his own photographs, followed by four sections of photographs and captions by Patrick Sutherland. It concludes with a substantial essay, placing the Buchen into a wider cultural and historical context, by Tashi Tsering, founding Director of the Amnye Machen Institute (Tibetan Centre for Advanced Studies) in Dharamsala. This essay is also illustrated with historical photographs

Talbot Patrick Papers - Accession 381
No full textThe Talbot Patrick Papers consists of newspaper articles written by Mr. Patrick for the Rock Hill, SC Evening Herald from 1953-1979 and were organized in chronological order by Mr. Patrick in a notebook. Mr. Talbot Patrick (1897-1980) was a longtime editor of the Rock Hill Evening Herald newspaper from July 1, 1947 retired in 1975, however he continued to write editorials for the paper until he passed away on January 23, 1980. The majority of articles in the collection were part of his running column titled the “Carolina Traveler” in which he describes his travels and experiences throughout the globe. His travels for the column take him throughout Europe, Asia, and the Middle East through the 1950s through the 1970s. He editorializes on the culture, politics, geography and people of the places he visited including Europe, the Middle East, South America and the Far East. Of special interest are his articles in July 1958 when Mr. Patrick found himself in the middle of the Iraq Revolution when he just happened to be visiting. He witnessed firsthand the overthrow of the Iraqi government and was in Baghdad as the King was put to death and the new government was installed. As a result of his coverage of the events he was nominated for a Pulitzer Prize.https://digitalcommons.winthrop.edu/manuscriptcollection_findingaids/1489/thumbnail.jp
Time, tide and narrative: adapting chronology in Master and commander: the far side of the world
No full textThis paper is concerned with the 2003 film Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World, and with the book – or more accurately – books from which it is adapted. The film’s source material comes from novelist Patrick O’Brian who, between 1969 and his death in 2000, wrote 20 completed novels, plus one unfinished work. While no single text manifests a glaring temporal anomaly, taken as a whole it is apparent that numerous factors including the age of characters, aspects of their backstory, and especially the cumulative duration of several epic sea journeys do not cohere. It is not the object of this paper to treat this distortion as a failure. Rather, it is to focus on how the single screen adaptation engages with this aspect of its literary predecessors
