This chapter compares the reception of Joyce’s 1922 Ulysses with that of Joseph Strick’s 1967 film adaptation of the novel. Although Ulysses had been legally publishable in England for decades, Strick’s film still encountered censorship from the British Board of Film Censors. The chapter argues that Joyce’s novel, for all its obscenity and provocation, mitigated its threat by foregrounding its own printedness, allying its fate to the waning power of print as a bearer of obscenity. Strick’s film, by contrast, activated the perceived power of film. The contrast of the two versions of Ulysses, which are often identical in language, thus offers a valuable window on how obscenity changed across media through the twentieth century. In making this argument, the chapter surveys print strategies of censorship, including the asterisk, and how these strategies operated in a range of works.

Impelled by a desire to control, suppress, and deny emotional response, stoic individuals may act out their pent-up emotions on relational partners by provoking conflict and/or engaging in partner-directed violent and aggressive behaviors. However, little is known regarding what factors can push stoics over the edge from remaining quiet or avoiding revealing frustrations to initiating aggressive behavior. This relationship between stoicism and aggression is important to consider in serial arguments, where the repetitive nature of a conflict may become increasingly difficult for stoics to manage internally. Here, we examined the influence of stoicism on verbal aggression in serial arguments between romantic partners. We additionally considered the effects of power, perceived resolvability, and argument frequency on the relationship between stoicism and verbal aggression. Using a survey design with a sample of 281 individuals involved in a romantic relationship, we observed that stoicism is positively associated with verbal aggression in serial arguments. While perceived power and resolvability did not moderate the relationship between stoicism and verbal aggression, argument frequency about a serial argument topic was a significant moderator. The results of this study imply that stoicism plays an important role in explaining aggressive tactics in conflict. A high argument frequency about a conflict topic may lead to a buildup of unexpressed emotions, particularly anger, in stoic individuals, resulting in an explosive release of violence and aggression toward a romantic partner. Unique results on the relationship between stoicism and power and directions for future research are discussed.

This chapter considers a variety of phenomena by which demons are perceived, focusing upon the more wondrous or miraculous. For Augustine, demons have power only over bodies and appearances, not human understanding and will. This restricts demonic power to the natural, causal limitations of corporeal things, which they only know externally—scientifically, as it were—and not contemplatively in God as the angels do. It also makes it possible for the saints to resist them with virtue, by which demons are made the ‘sport of angels’. This is demonstrated by a review of a variety of demonic phenomena that appear in Augustine’s writings including divination, prodigies, signs, temptation, and possession, which are analysed according to the two basic categories of deception and affliction. The chapter ends with a comparison of angelic and demonic miracles. Occasionally Augustine claims that angelic miracles have greater power than those of demons, but it is more essential in his work to differentiate them not according to their perceived power but by their meaning. The self-love in which they fell is the self-love to which all the works of demons ultimately refer and by which they are identifiable in those works.
