Abstract:
Using the motif of Cerberus, the three-headed monster watchdog of Hades, this article attempts to bring ‘security’ to light. Specifically, it addresses two related questions. The primary question is: What does ‘security’ mean?. Here it is argued that ‘security’ is related to ‘order’ and is a reflection not of a positive value in and of itself, but the relative success of any given order to realise its core values in relation to other orders. Therefore, ‘security’ is found to be like Cerberus insofar as it exists not as an independent value or being, but only in relation between two orders. Having located ‘security’ within this conceptual framework, the article then addresses its second question: What are the effects of security?. The motif of Cerberus suggests that security ‘bites' in three ways: first, that specific measures of security control the members of an order; second, that the identification of security threats reinforce certain persons and structures of the order as being the definers of the order; and finally, that the implementation of certain security measures can change and transform the order itself. In this way the analysis offered here brings ‘security’ to light not only as an inherently political term connected to political values, but to provide foundations for critiquing the rhetorical use of ‘security’ in contemporary political discourse and thought.

Abstract:
Ovid,Metamorphoses8.18, in which Scylla throws a tiny pebble against Megara's famous sounding tower, contains an exact, unique but unnoticed verbal echo of Helenus' description of the sea-monster Scylla's lair atAeneid3.432:resonantia saxa. The allusion tropes its own intertextual status as an ‘echo’ and contributes to the ludic confusion of the two Scyllas in this episode and elsewhere. The collision of the ‘tiny pebble’ with the Virgilian rocks further tropes the episode's elegiac and Callimachean recasting of epic material. The childishness of the game is also part of the self-conscious puerility of theMetamorphoses' poetics.

Abstract:
Novel Dans le Jardin de l'Ogre (2014) karya Leïla Slimani mengandung aspek-aspek yang menjelaskan konstruksi seksualitas perempuan dengan penggambaran yang keluar dari pandangan mainstream yang normatif. Penggambaran perempuan sebagai mothers di satu sisi dan monster di sisi lain menjadi aspek yang ditinjau dalam penelitian ini dengan menggunakan lensa konsep women as mothers dan monsters karya Rossi Braidotti. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode analisis isi cerita (content analysis). Metode tersebut digunakan untuk dapat meninjau lebih jauh narasi yang terdapat di dalam novel sesuai dengan aspek-aspek yang ada pada teori. Data yang terdiri dari narasi dan dialog antar tokoh dikumpulkan dan dikategorikan sesuai dengan polarisasi perempuan sebagai mothers dan monsters. Teknik yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah teknik simak catat. Hasil penelitian mengenai konstruksi seksualitas ini menunjukkan penginternalisasian nilai yang mendukung terjadinya konstruksi seksualitas perempuan di dalam novel Dans le Jardin de l'Ogre. Penginternalisasian nilai-nilai tersebut menyebabkan seorang perempuan harus menerima konsekuensi ketika ia menunjukkan seksualitasnya yang secara umum diposisikan keluar dari norma. Leïla Slimani's novel Dans le Jardin de l'Ogre (2014) examines the elements that influence the development and construction of female sexuality. Borrowing from the theories of Rossi Braidotti, aspects of motherhood and monstrosity are explored through this research. Content analysis is used as the research method, as it enables the convenient review of applicable and relevant data, i.e. the polarization between mothers and monsters. This study employs the notes technique as its research technique. It finds that, in Dans le Jardin de l'Ogre, women are depicted as internalizing values that support the dominant constructs of their sexuality. As a result, women face severe consequences if they exhibit sexuality that is considered as outside the norms.

Abstract:
Sexually violent predator (SVP) laws are inherently suspicious because they continue to incarcerate people not because of what they have done, but because of what they might do. I focus on three major criticisms of the laws. First, I use recent recidivism data to challenge the core motivation for the SVP laws—that sex offenders are monsters who cannot control themselves. Second, I situate the laws theoretically as examples of what Feeley and Simon call the “new penology. ” I argue that the SVP laws show the limited promise of the new penology— that we can use science to predict risk accurately—because the actuarial instruments used in SVP determinations make many mistakes. In making this argument, I focus particularly on the most commonly used such instrument, the Static-99. Finally, I argue that the Static-99 fails to meet the constitutional criteria laid out by the U.S. Supreme Court in Kansas v. Hendricks because it does not link an individual's mental illness to his dangerousness.

Abstract:
Masih sering kita melihat diskriminasi warna kulit yang terjadi di beberapa belahan bumi. Sejarah mencatat banyak kasus pelanggaran hak asasi manusia yang berkaitan dengan perbedaan warna kulit. Paham rasisme di berbagai belahan dunia seringkali dikaitkan dengan penindasan dan kekuasaan. Hal ini sering kita jumpai di film-film yang menayangkan realitas perilaku rasisme yang terjadi di lingkungan masyarakat. Film menjadi sebuah media untuk menyuarakan informasi yang mungkin tidak dapat langsung dikatakan karena dianggap sensitif, salah satunya adalah wacana rasisme. Film Blindspotting mengangkat tentang realitas yangterjadi di Oakland, California. Film ini menceritakan tentang bagaimana perilaku rasisme seperti diskriminasi dan stereotip yang diterima oleh masyarakat kulit hitam yang ada di kota tersebut. Penelitian ini bersifat kualitatif dengan menggunakan metode analisis wacana kritis Norman Fairclough untuk mengungkap wacana rasisme yang sering terjadi di kehidupan nyata. Teknik analisis data dalam penelitian ini adalah dengan mencari dimensi teks, nilai relasional, dan nilai ekspresif. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui wacana rasisme yang ada dalam film Blindspotting serta memberikan gambaran bagaimana analisis dari teori Norman Fairclough. Dari hasil penelitian ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa melalu dimensi teks muncul kata-kata rasisme seperti negro, nigga, dan monster. Nilai relasional yaitu kelompok hitam sering dicurigai sebagai masyarakat yang membahayakan. Pembuat film ini merepresentasikan nilai ekspresif, yaitu sikap rasisme antara lain prasangka, stereotip, diskriminasi, dan antisemitisme.

Abstract:
Certains récits populaires nous renvoient à des angoisses extrêmes et à un imaginaire peuplé de mythes fondateurs, de récits bibliques et contes monstrueux. « Serions-nous « tous cannibales » comme l’écrivit Lévi-Strauss, « Après tout, le moyen le plus simple d’identifier autrui à soi-même c’est encore de le manger». En privilégiant le cadre familial, cette étude pluridisciplinaire propose d’extraire quelques personnages cannibaliques par l’adaptation artistique de ces figures emblématiques. Ainsi Cronos, Le Léviathan, Le loup et la petite fille qui dévorent mère-grand….ont nourri notre imaginaire.… Cette peur immémoriale d’être dévoré et cette envie récurrente de dévorer l’autre, se répondent mutuellement. Les lois complexes de la parenté soulignent des relations intergénérationnelles parfois voraces, que sauront transposer les artistes dans leurs œuvres avec notamment des couples fusionnels aux baisers mordants, des Vierges allaitantes, ou d’individus pourvus de ventres aux fonctions contraires. Ce cannibalisme imaginaire et symbolique replacé dans le domaine des arts, suscite plusieurs interrogations ; Pourquoi certains plasticiens questionnent-ils toujours notre appréhension du monde, à travers ces récits populaires ? Comment ces histoires anciennes sont-elles resituées dans l’art contemporain, au sein d’une société avide d’appropriation ? Sous quelles formes artistiques, ce thème de l’oralité, avec cette envie de cannibaliser ou de vampiriser autrui, est-il imaginé aujourd’hui ? Ces récits ont évolué mais l’Homme face à ses contradictions récurrentes, à sa troublante dualité, a-t-il changé ? Par le cordon (ombilical) en fil rouge, les artistes, vont tenter de (dé)nouer tous nos rapports ambivalents avec les autres. Et par la force de ces réincarnations contemporaines au prisme de l’anthropologie et de la psychanalyse, nous vivrons ainsi toutes les étapes artistiques et esthétiques de ce processus cannibalique, en empruntant tous les chemins sinueux de la dévoration, la digestion et enfin la déjection<br>Some popular stories lead to extreme repressed anxiety and to an imaginary world made of founding myths, biblical stories and monstrous folk tales. “Could we all be cannibals “asked Lévi-Strauss, “After all, the best way to identify to someone else would be to eat them”. By privileging the family setting, this multidisciplinary study offers to highlight a few cannibal characters by the artistic adaptation of these iconc figures. Cronos, Leviathan, the wolf of the little Red Riding Hood, ave nourished our fantasy world. This eternal fear of being eaten and this recurring desire to eat others are closely intertwined. The complex laws of parenting stress the sometimes voracious intergenerational relationships, the artists transposing them in their works, as in the biting kisses of fusional couples, breastfeeding Virgins, and creatures with reversed stomachs. This imaginary and symbolic cannibalism in the arts asks a few questions. Why do certain visual artists question our vision of the world, through those popular stories ? How are there ancient narratives shown in art in a society eager to own ? Under which art forms is this oral theme, devouring and cannibalizing or vampirizing others, imagined today ? These stories have indeed evolved, but Man faced to its eternal contradictions, to its disturbing duality, has he really changed ? With the (ombilical) cord as a common thread, artists will try to unravel all our ambivalent relationships with others. And with the force of these contemporary reincarnations through the prism of anthropology and psychoanalysis, we will go through all the artistic and aesthetic steps of this cannibalistic process, from devouring, through digestion, and to end with dejection

Abstract:
The introduction presents the central thesis of the text that there is an important connection between the study of science fiction and that of sport. No unlike the marginalization of science fiction itself, sport and athleticism have historically been viewed with suspicion and derision and the athlete (and their body) afforded a fear akin to that which we reserve for the most frightening monsters. Science fiction is a genre well suited to studying the monster and, while criticism on the topic is lacking, has a long history of highlighting the embodied exclusion of the athlete. These connections are mapped here, a methodology for the book laid out, and chapter synopses provided.

Abstract:
This chapter analyses the womb imagery permeating Neil Marshall's The Descent (2005), and asks what is so scary about being born. Representations of the cave as womb have a long and distinguished heritage, aligning the cave with the intrauterine qualities of other terrible places: the basements, sewers, underground lairs, mine shafts, and tunnel systems where monsters dwell in horror films. The terrible place of horror can be considered to contain a '“uterine” threat', the threat of dissolution, loss of self, and reincorporation into the mother. Is this threat of reincorporation really enough to account for horror's insistent use of intrauterine imagery? Perhaps the womb represents death for us in ways other than a fear of or desire for non-differentiation: the sole certainty when we are born is that we will die; to be born is to be condemned to a certain death. Thinking about the womb further raises the fundamental, perhaps most uncomfortable metaphysical question: What happened to us before we were born? Where have we come from?
