I bought Minutes to Midnight, listened closely, then decided Linkin Park was my new favorite band, because that album resonated with me in a way that my old faves hadn’t managed in a while.Īt the time, I had a few things going on. It’s almost exactly ten years that Linkin Park and your lyrics became a part of my life, when I saw Transformers and was totally captivated by What I’ve Done. Also in retrospect, I could see where the big black dog of depression reared its ugly head in the lyrics. ![]() The album felt, in retrospect, like a farewell note combined with a „last lecture“ type of thing. ![]() I don’t know and don’t care if anyone noticed.

This updated edition of Ernest Gellners classic exploration of the roots of nationalism includes an extended introduction from John Breuilly, tracing the way. Ernest Gellner, Congruency and Cultural Homogenisation Gellner’s ( 2006 1983) pivotal book, Nations and Nationalism, argues that ‘Nationalism is primarily a political principle, which holds that the political and the national unit should be congruent’ (Gellner 2006 1983: 1). ![]() Gellner discussed nationalism in a number of works, starting with Thought and Change (1964), and he most notably developed it in Nations and Nationalism (1983). First published in 1983, Nations and Nationalism remains one of the most influential explanations of the emergence of nationalism. ![]() ![]() ![]() His sentiments and suggestibility lead him to misguided positions and tragedy. Here he played an essentially decent man who is not too bright but has been born into wealth and influence. James Fox was a revelation as prior to this I had only seen him in very light roles. Sadly his talent is too often misused and misapplied. Hugh Grant has a small part and plays it perfectly. But all the actors are excellent, even in the most minor parts. Then just how is it that we are able to follow the emotional undercurrents? Emma Thompson is also brilliant as the energetic housekeeper who does display and express her feelings without ever stating them directly. Stevens the butler never shows any emotion so his face is always suitably deadpan. Anthony Hopkins performance is awe-inspiring and difficult to describe. ![]() I can only repeat what most previous commentators have said. ![]() |
