Can Lasagna Cook Without Tin Foil?

worked (?)

Onorato dalla presenza di cari e stimati compagni di viaggio dentro Lost in occasione della visione, rigorosamente collettiva, della doppia puntata finale, è ben presto scattata in me una domanda, che oltretutto ricalca una delle battute più gettonate dai nostri eroi negli ultimi tempi: "Ha funzionato" question mark (?).
Almost inevitably, a victim in these days of fever a few lines of the epidemic but also triggered by six seasons of Lost, I can move on several levels of response!

Yes, it worked!
Even the spectators, like the protagonists in the end, we (re) found in a large hall to experience the final act of a collective hallucination essentially the same time as that of many other global audience, with thrilling riassaporando, almost sucking the marrow of the Serie .

NO, did not work!
Responses promises or simply expectations are certainly not arrived and, in hindsight, the real Losties us viewers, lost in a maze of bewildering and ever other series as it unfolds, that series ended up scraping the bottom of the barrel ... shaft and the island! What novel Fantozzi, we eternity sentenced to reshoot the scenes we destroyed mothers of this ... boiata crazy!

MAYBE ... the finale did not disappoint the sense of journey and on the one hand it embodied a desire, not so hidden, to make sense of fullness and authenticity at the time of our lives, it also tried to dispel that sense of nihilistic death, which - I think I can say - we are a Christian (capital C, or thanks to the intercession of Christian Shepard) returned in Lost as the gift of a higher consciousness: even if the spectators, the attribution of meaning / Meaning there are those who realize ( "But we are real, Dad? ") before, long after those who have little or nothing.
MAYBE ... we have seen the eschatological moment (the final revelation) of this debate (see previous post lively fortunately) EPOS Lostia, one in which comes the long awaited clarification (the light of the Beyond the open door) with the Father (topical meeting told the Bible is a Star Wars parva Licet dial Magnis ).

FINALLY, we measured - and almost squeezed dare I add - with a series of narrative structure particularly impressive (you can read in this sense, the post of Virginia on the potential literature), through which the island is painted ( "Picture a large large box ) as a place (dystopian rather than utopian), where anything can happen, but primarily as a bridge, ferry, Limbo, a place of transition in short, to her death, the rediscovery of its own (antichissime! esoteric?) roots.
There is, in my humble opinion, the necessity or as it were a moral obligation to "deal" with one's true identity, it is monstrous or angelic. Perhaps all of us
We are always scrutinized, as Jack, by Jacob duty, as if he is a member of the Dharma in anticipation of change.
Perhaps the only way the life of the Island off type (regardless of its very weak, mutevolissime and multiple time-space coordinates) can synchronize with all the (primal, innate, fatal?) Arising from Love that dwells only in type posts on Island, to allow everyone to live, and / or dead, its passage, as an overrun of its sea and its horizon, soothing vocals and finally whispers.

The initial opening and final closing, after six long and memorable seasons, the eye of the Shepherd Jack mi ha recapitato dall'Isola questo personalissimo message in a bottle : il GRANDE LOOP ( The Circle , narrativamente e metanarrativamente parlando: battute, ruoli, personaggi, alchimie dharmiche e non, il tutto nel segno dell'intercambiabilità) che sembra caratterizzare questo posto così speciale va PROTETTO in ogni modo e il tappo eventualmente sturato va prontamente riposizionato, altrimenti il cerchio non si chiude e la Morte non porta ad una nuova Nascita, ma solo ad un triste e forse scontato bilancio, che ci rendiconta quanto l'Uomo arrivi, distrugga, combatta per poi congedarsi sempre nello stesso mo(n)do.
Con un po' di gusto per la suggestione, l'Uomo is called, in this tragic modernity, to rediscover its mission as guardian of Life, Pastor ... a Shepard !

SAVE TO BELIEVE is just a good slogan to fill the postscript of my last postcard from the island increasingly delusional and sweeten the bitter taste left by the absence of sympathetic Portuguese ... this time, only wreckage on the beach!

Western & Southern Financial Scam

Curiosity killed the cat!

Hackers Shippo for our favorite pair of authors!

joke aside ... was launched a security alert. It seems that several web pages, containing, in theory juicy expectations regarding the grand finale, are actually mirror pages. So, while you are looking for information about "The End", you can catch a good malware!

E 'obvious (or maybe not ?? ) that the fraudulent intent has nothing to do with Lost, but ... it is curious that the Web has become their "The Punisher". An anti-hero in defense of the work of the Cat and the Fox!

The leak, in any field, there has always been and always will be. Thus, despite repeated calls to refrain from spoilers wild ( spoiler follows, however, le regole di domanda ed offerta ), alcune anticipazioni son state divulgate.

Lostpedia - onde evitare che qualche buontempone infilasse, in alcune pagine, qualche spoiler - ha inibito il processo di editing agli utenti che si son registrati dopo una determinata data.

I giornali ed i siti d'informazione sono stati molto attenti nel riportare la notizia riguardante le famose pagine pubblicate da Macchianera ( in passato non è sempre stato così. Quindi si è immolato mio marito. Ha letto prima lui l'articolo apparso sul Corriere. Dopo il via libera - luce verde: è spoiler free - ho letto anch'io!)

confess that once I read the spoiler.

When rumors began to turn on the death of some important personage . Regularly, in the cases in the various forums, was given up my beloved Sawyer. And if that were the case ... I had to be prepared! ( guys, it's nice to analyze, discuss, hypothesize, but frankly ... the eye wants its part! eh eh eh)

The death of the son Mr.Friendly me burned in this way.

Or, in a period of suspicion ( was a fine needle am) I read an article Blog Darkufo. I did not think that in August could turn megagalattico spoiler and especially I never imagined that he could get from Ms. Dos Santos! Instead I was wrong. I am so burned the surprise of the dead in the coffin! In August, of course I had not given weight to the thing but when strange rumors began to turn on the identity of the deceased in the coffin ... I began to rethink this absurd article " want to see that Locke is really dead?". Bingo! Another surprise burned!

Not to mention the friends " mouthed frog" and also avid hunters spoiler. A scary combination! We must avoid like the plague. Sono quelli che parlando del tempo, come un fulmine a ciel sereno, ti infilano una frase bastarda " ahh, lo sai che il morto nella bara è Locke? " (questa la sapevo già, per fortuna!)

Ma ... cercare spoiler riguardanti il GRAN FINALE, a pochi giorni dal GRAN FINALE ... è da veri stupidi!

Curiosity killed the cat e, in questo caso, credo nessuno possa dire satisfaction brought it back !!!

be fair with Lost

Alla fine di un' Opera , be it a life or just over half a decade, it is inevitable to come to terms, once it is metabolised in the language, it is also easier to look at it with a certain detachment, understand their strengths and weaknesses.

I remember as a college student with a passion I listened to the debates among people of a generation or two older than me, which once had been the faithful followers of Freud and Marx and that between the late eighties and early nineties, they felt, in one way or another, the crisis of those thought patterns. Usually, the most vocal detractors there were those who first had been the strongest supporters. In retrospect, it is clear that Freud and Marx have said a bunch of crap, but it is equally true that they have shown a way. Although today almost no one is declared pure Freudian or Marxist, each of us continues to deal with the unconscious (with thoughts and emotions are not aware, themed) and with the desire for a more egalitarian society.

The point, in my opinion, is that when you write, when you do a work, it is difficult if not impossible, to be consistent .

Hawking, perhaps the most influential living physicist, who spent most of his life thinking about and describe a universe without God, he had to reintroduce last the philosophical and theological concept of eternity, as if to say: "Physics provides the data, philosophy and theology seek the meaning." This does not mean that Hawking has sometimes acknowledged the existence of God but is a sign that, at some point, his research on the fate of the universe - in part carried out with Roger Penrose - have come into short circuit: the daughter Uprising (physics) asks aiuto ai genitori (filosofia e teologia).

Hegel, forse il più grande filosofo dell'Ottocento, è incoerente se si confrontano la Fenomenologia dello Spirito e il sistema della Logica . La prima è orientata verso la differenza , il secondo verso l' identità . Non per questo Hegel smette di esercitare il suo effetto sul pensiero contemporaneo.

Heidegger, forse il più grande filosofo del Novecento, inizia la sua opera sulla falsariga del maestro Husserl, seguendo cioè l'idea di una filosofia come scienza oggettiva, per finirla sulle orme di Meister Eckhart. Wittgenstein, allo stesso modo, probabilmente il più grande logico del XX secolo, non è esente da approdi mistici.

Agostino, ultimo grande filosofo e teologo dell'antichità, inizia sotto la bandiera del neoplatonismo, per finire con l'essere il primo vero dogmatico della Chiesa (a proposito, anche Papa Ratzinger dice una cosa a Roma e poi praticamente il contrario a Parigi!).

Gli esempi si potrebbero riprodurre all'infinito nelle più svariate materie. Voglio dire: non è giusto valutare-giudicare un'opera dalla sua coerenza interna. E se questo vale per le grandi opere, vale a maggior ragione per le piccole. Sia chiaro che il mio ragionamento crollerebbe subito se si trattasse di un film, dove la coerenza narrativa è la prima cosa da guardare.

Lost ci ha abituato alla grandezza di FBYE, alla costante e alla variabile, al sogno di tornare indietro nel tempo e di cambiare le nostre scelte e quelle dell'umanità. Ci ha insegnato che è possibile stare comodamente in poltrona e guardare scorrere immagini che richiamano simultaneamente temi profondi del pensiero occidentale e orientale. Ci ha insegnato, soprattutto, a pensare il cinema e la televisione in maniera più complessa. Prima di Lost c'erano film o telefilm storici, drammatici, comici, filosofici, scientifici, fantascientifici, gialli, avventurosi, sociologici, politici etc., adesso sappiamo che tutto questo - che finora era distinto - è realizzabile in un unico prodotto.

Lost has changed the rules.

Lost, al di là degli errori e delle incoerenze, ha cambiato le regole del gioco.

How To Hem Scrub Pants

Seven Against Thebes

a fratricidal war. That 's what we are seeing - better, by participating - on both sides beyond the screen, during these episodes of Lost. It is no coincidence that just at Across the sea and exploded DefInt the controversy that has seen addressed, in tones more and more heated, the supporters and his detractors Lost more or less the last hour, on the sixth and last season.

Just as two brothers face no holds barred, for sense to give to that island that they were born, so the community sees Lost take a fatal turn to the debate between those who believe the series is a masterpiece - and that remains, even in a season like this enigmatic - and who, perhaps after years of devotion, he feels teased and do not hesitate to vent their frustration, including attacks on those with whom he has traveled fraternally the journey to here.

Lost was always visible at several levels, even the most adventurous simply, without requiring a specific background to enjoy the invoice and the ability to charm. Now, perhaps as never before in this episode can happen to think that to understand it better - and not dismiss it as una narrazione banale e kitsch - occorresse una formazione classica. Perché Across the sea è un cristallino esemplare di tragedia , in senso classico. C'è tanto Eschilo, per dire: ai più avveduti è venuta in mente la storia di Eteocle e Polinice, figli di Edipo, ma in generale è la miglior manifestazione televisiva dello spirito tragico - con tutto quanto di matricida, fratricida, filicida esso comporta, con tutta la ricerca di senso, continua, frustrata e infine disperata, che esso rappresenta.

Comodo sarebbe liquidare il disappunto dei detrattori come un caso di uva irraggiungibile dalla volpe , e quindi dichiarata acerba. D'altra parte, hanno buon gioco i detrattori reluctant to identify with the mother, if not a liar, the same authors of Lost. One might respond to those who believe that the narrative has taken the fold of 'American , perhaps in Rome, a couple of millennia ago, there were those who boil the tragedies like the usual stuff of Greek , or that those what we believe to stereotypes are archetypes. Not everyone, after all, have the ability or inclination to exercise keatsiana negative capability, and therefore it should be acknowledged as legitimate discouragement.

But everything would be in vain, because now - like any self-respecting tragedy - the fall events: the community is sfalda, perde i pezzi senza che chi la anima possa nulla rispetto a questa accelerazione, rispetto alla polarizzazione ed esasperazione delle posizioni. Che forse sono il più grande successo metanarrativo di quest'opera, che ha saputo descrivere sempre in anticipo, attraverso i propri personaggi, l'effetto che avrebbe avuto sul proprio pubblico. In altre parole, questa conclusione di Lost è triste e dolorosa, non solo per le vicende messe in scena, ma anche per ciò che hanno scatenato al di qua della quarta parete. E nulla possiamo: non ci resta che accettare - tragicamente - questo destino.
