   Mod (subculture) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mod is a subculture that began in 1960s Britain and spread, in varying degrees, to other countries^[1] and continues today on a smaller scale. Focused on music and fashion, the subculture has its roots in a small group of London-based stylish young men in the late 1950s who were termed modernists because they listened to modern jazz,^[2] although the subculture expanded to include women.

The man with a thousand brains.

It sounds like something from a 1950s’ B-movie: scientists growing brains in the lab. The truth, of course, is far less gothic, but could lead to vital breakthroughs in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.

The dramatic device of a hidden body was used widely in the Gothic novels of the Victorian period. Edgar Allen Poe was the master of such tales, for example, this extract from The Black Cat, 1845 :

"Gentlemen, I delight to have allayed your suspicions", and here, through the mere frenzy of bravado, I rapped heavily upon that very portion of the brick-work behind which stood the corpse of the wife of my bosom. The wall fell bodily. The corpse, already greatly decayed, stood erect before the eyes of the spectators.

西哥德人（Visigoth），中國大陸譯作西哥特人，是東日耳曼部落的兩個主要分支之一，另一個分支是東哥德人。在民族大遷移時期，是摧毀羅馬帝國的眾多蠻族中的一個。公元4世紀西哥德人興起於巴爾幹地區，後加入對羅馬帝國的戰爭。410年在首領阿拉里克率領下攻陷並洗劫羅馬。

西哥德人後定居於高盧南部，成為羅馬帝國的盟友。隨後建立西哥德王國，統治法國南部和伊比利亞半島，公元589年，皈依基督教。

Gothically Goth'i·cal·ly adv.

WORD HISTORY The combination Gothic romance represents a union of two of the major influences in the development of European culture, the Roman Empire and the Germanic tribes that invaded it. The Roman origins of romance must be sought in the etymology of that word, but we can see clearly that Gothic is related to the name Goth used for one of those invading Germanic tribes. The word Gothic, first recorded in 1611 in a reference to the language of the Goths, was extended in sense in several ways, meaning "Germanic," "medieval, not classical," "barbarous," and also an architectural style that was not Greek or Roman. Horace Walpole applied the word Gothic to his novel The Castle of Otranto, a Gothic Story (1765) in the sense "medieval, not classical." From this novel filled with scenes of terror and gloom in a medieval setting descended a literary genre still popular today; from its subtitle descended the name for it.

Origin

From French gothique or late Latin gothicus, from Gothi (see Goth). It was used in the 17th and 18th cents to mean 'not classical' (i.e. not Greek or Roman), and hence to refer to medieval architecture which did not follow classical models (Gothic (sense 2 of the adjective)) and a typeface based on medieval handwriting (Gothic (sense 4 of the adjective)).
