At age 2, his grand-uncle was hanged for being a priest, and his father died of more natural causes when he was 4. His younger brother Henry died in prison, having been arrested for sheltering a priest. Donne himself, a noteworthy student at both Oxford and Cambridge, was refused a degree at both schools because of his faith. Donne's youthful response to these calamities was to reject his Catholicism. But neither did he accept the Protestantism of his family's persecutors. Instead, he walked the line between cynical rebellion and honest truthseeker, listing the pitfalls of various denominations and sects in his first book of poetry

    Extractions: about John Donne The word consciousness implies, in its simple meaning, a being aware of anything-the feeling of life itself. But in the sharper meaning, it means the self being aware of itself as aware. That is, you look at a banana: you are conscious of the banana; but you are fully conscious when you can see yourself having seen the banana. Consciousness has many forms, and in poetry we always have the interplay of what a person sees as an object and what he doesn't see. Unconsciousness can be represented by doodling, and by writing any words that come to you. Some people have done that and if they are very lucky it is a great surrealist poem. People in various ways have gone ahead driftingly. Sometimes they have been very careful, and have even got the right size paper and the right size pencils and all the dictionaries and thesauri, and all the books of metrics, and then have tried to please themselves in a very knowing way, and have really changed poetry into something like profound dominoes or chess. Consciousness has been present in all poems; because even if we doodle, some awareness is present. The varieties of consciousness in poetry are so many that it is difficult to show that variety in one talk. But generally speaking, whenever we see a poem about which it can be said with safety that the writer has been aware of himself thinking about the poem and what is in the poem, we can say that consciousness is unusually present. I am speaking about

    Extractions: John Donne was born in London into a devout Roman Catholic family in 1572. He attended Oxford and Cambridge Universities, and as a law student Lincoln's Inn in London. But his religion debarred him from taking an university degree. He took part in the expeditions to Cadiz and the Azores. In 1598 he became private secretary to the Lord Keeper of the Great Seal. After having been dismissed he was desperately working to catch the eye of influential people at Court and refused to take holy orders. But James I urged him to enter the church and made him a chaplain-in-ordinary. He died in London in 1631. As a preacher he was very famous in his age, but his poems for the most part did not appear until after his death.

    Extractions: 31 March 1631 "All mankind is one volume. When one man dies, one chapter is torn out of the book and translated into a better language. And every chapter must be so translated. God employs several translators. Some pieces are translated by age, some by sickness, some by war, some by justice. But God's hand shall bind up all our scattered leaves again for that library where every book shall lie open to another." Donne (rhymes with "sun") was born in 1573 (his father died in 1576) into a Roman Catholic family, and from 1584 to 1594 was educated at Oxford and Cambridge and Lincoln's Inn (this last a highly regarded law school). He became an Anglican (probably around 1594) and aimed at a career in government. He joined with Raleigh and Essex in raids on Cadiz and the Azores, and became private secretary to Sir Thomas Egerton. But in 1601 he secretly married Anne More, the 16-year-old niece of Egerton, and her enraged father had Donne imprisoned. The years following were years of poverty, debt, illness, and frustration. In 1615 he was ordained, perhaps largely because he had given up hope of a career in Parliament. From the above information, the reader might conclude that Donne's professed religious belief was mere opportunism. But the evidence of his poetry is that, long before his ordination, and probably beginning with his marriage, his thoughts were turned toward holiness, and he saw in his wife Anne (as Dante had earlier seen in Beatrice) a glimpse of the glory of God, and in human love a revelation of the nature of Divine Love. His poetry, mostly written before his ordination, includes poems both sacred and secular, full of wit, puns, paradoxes, and obscure allusions at whose meanings we can sometimes only guess, presenting amorous experience in religious terms and devotional experience in erotic terms, so that I have seen one poem of his both in a manual of devotion and in a pornography collection.

His 1988 film The Bear featured a nearly all-animal cast engaged in telling a story that pulsed with sex and death. Predictably, it appalled the kind of parents who prefer that their children don’t see animals acting like animals — the kind of denial that makes tormenting tigers on a Las Vegas stage for the bemusement of the fanny-pack set seem like a good idea. In his new film, Two Brothers , Annaud shifts from bears to tigers (next up, maybe lions, oh my). With the help this time of a larger cast of humans, Annaud presents a meticulously structured fable about the importance of family, particularly the relationship of fathers and sons, to both man and beast. Kumal and Sangha are the brothers of the title, tiger cubs at play in the lush green forests of French colonial Indochina. Their idyllic childhood is shattered by McRory (Guy Pearce), a hunter who comes upon Kumal and his father while looting overgrown temples for their statues. McRory kills the older tiger when he attacks a porter, and the bucolic lives of the cubs are thrown into chaos. Kumal, the bolder feline brother, is sold to the circus as the replacement for a bedraggled old tiger whose hide is more valuable than his life. The meeker Sangha is adopted briefly by a French colonialist’s son, Raoul (Freddie Highmore), and then given to a despot (Oanh Nguyen), who conditions the tiger to be a killer.
