Montague Summers

Augustus Montague Summers (10 April 1880 – 10 August 1948) was an English author and clergyman. He is known primarily for his scholarly work on the English drama of the 17th century, as well as for his idiosyncratic studies on witches, vampires, and werewolves, in all of which he professed to believe. He was responsible for the first English translation, published in 1928, of the notorious 15th-century witch hunter's manual, the Malleus Maleficarum.




The occult

Summers' career as an ostensibly Catholic clergyman was highly unusual. He wrote works of hagiography on Saint Catherine of Siena and Saint Anthony Maria Zaccaria, but his primary religious interest was in the subject of the occult. While Aleister Crowley, with whom he was acquainted, adopted the persona of a modern-day witch, Summers played the part of the learned Catholic witch-hunter. In the introduction to his book on The History of Witchcraft and Demonology (1926) he writes:

In the following pages I have endeavoured to show the witch as she really was – an evil liver: a social pest and parasite: the devotee of a loathly and obscene creed: an adept at poisoning, blackmail, and other creeping crimes: a member of a powerful secret organisation inimical to Church and State: a blasphemer in word and deed, swaying the villagers by terror and superstition: a charlatan and a quack sometimes: a bawd: an abortionist: the dark counsellor of lewd court ladies and adulterous gallants: a minister to vice and inconceivable corruption, battening upon the filth and foulest passions of the age.

In 1928, he published the first English translation of Heinrich Kramer's and James Sprenger's Malleus Maleficarum ("The Hammer of Witches"), a 15th-century Latin text on the hunting of witches. In his introduction, Summers insists that the reality of witchcraft is an essential part of Catholic doctrine, and declares the Malleus to be an admirable and correct account of witchcraft and of the methods necessary to combat it. This should be contrasted with the vastly more sceptical and critical attitude of mainstream Catholic scholars, reflected for instance in the Rev. Herbert Thurston's article on "Witchcraft" for the Catholic Encyclopaedia of 1912, which labels the publication of the Malleus a "disastrous episode."

Montague Summers then turned to vampires, producing The Vampire: His Kith and Kin (1928) and The Vampire in Europe (1929), and later to werewolves with The Werewolf (1933). Summers' work on the occult is notorious for his unusual and old-fashioned writing style, his display of erudition, and his purported belief in the reality of the subjects he treats.

Breaking Bad S04E11 Walt laughs

"One of the greatest scenes in cinema history. Such a powerful scene, spectacular acting. 10/10" -- PythOn GH, YouTube user



"Bryan Cranston is such a genius !!  Bryan Cranston is such a genius !!"
 -- Moussa Fayyad, YouTube user



"Walter died in that crawlspace

...

Only Heisenberg came out of that crawlspace"
-THE EQUALIZER, YouTube user

I added:

With his head shaved and the facial hair, it gave him that Anton LeVey look... like "a devil"... then he's down in the dark crawlspace .. like "hell".... then "the evil laugh".... overt/covert symbolism.. ... also money "the root of all evil"

And, obviously it's like the Devil's evil laugh. Also, the end of the scene with him "framed" by the wooden frame floor opening; that reminded me so much of the old 'Night Gallery' series of the 70s which used to be in syndication every evening late on the old analog UHF channel 44 in the Bay Area.

Neo-Western genre

Recently I watched 'El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie', which was initially on Netflix before airing on AMC. It featured the yet untold storyline about Jesse Pinkman's fate at the end of the 'Breaking Bad' series. One interesting aspect of 'Breaking Bad" and now 'Better Call Saul' is that they are under what is something of a new genre of Western: "Neo Western."

'Better Call Saul' is in its fifth season now, and while I appreciated the laid-back New Mexico backdrop to its tense storyline, I still have found it a little slow in developing. Some absolutely love it, while others wanted the "Saul Goodman" from 'Breaking Bad' immediately. Well, he's finally arrived!

Marie Laveau's Tomb

Apparently it was refurbished a few years ago. Prior to that, or possibly even now, it was a target for vandals; mostly of the spray paint variety. Really?.... or as they say.. Really bro?? Do you really want to anger the spirit of Marie Laveau? If I had to vandalize a tomb, she would pretty much be at the very very bottom of the list!
