| | | | | Rudolph: Encyclopedia II - History of Bavaria - Early settlements and Roman Raetia There are numerous palaeolithic finds in Bavaria.
The earliest known inhabitants that are mentioned in written sources were a people, probably Celts, participating in the widespread La Tène culture, whom the Romans subdued just before the opening of the Christian era, founding colonies among them and including their land in the provinces of Raetia and Noricum. The Roman centre of administration for this area was Castra Regina, now and since the middle ages known as Regensburg.1

| | | | | Rudolph: Encyclopedia II - History of Bavaria - Migrations and early Medieval Period During the 5th century the Romans in Noricum and Raetia came under increasing pressure from an influx of foreign peoples.
One theory of the etymological origins of the name "Bavarian" is that Bai(o)arii was derived from Bai(a)haim, which is thought to be equivalent with the land of the antique tribe of the Boii and modern Bohemia (Reindel 1981). Also In modern Caucasian Avar language "Bo" = Army-Land-Country and "Avar" meaning "Land of ...

| | | | | Rudolph: Encyclopedia II - Apocalypse Now - Adaptation Although inspired by Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness, the film deviates extensively from it. The novel takes place in the Belgian Congo in the 19th century; Kurtz and Marlow (who is named Willard in the movie) are commercial agents of a Belgian ivory company that brutally exploits its African native workers. In the novel, Marlow is sent to bring Kurtz home; and Kurtz dies of a heart attack. ...

| | | | | Rudolph: Encyclopedia II - Apocalypse Now - Background Filmed in the Philippines (most notably the Pagsanjan River and Hidden Valley Springs), the film went far over budget and schedule: a typhoon destroyed many of the sets, the Philippine Air Force helicopters used for shooting were constantly called back by President Ferdinand Marcos to be used in actual combat, the lead role was recast (Martin Sheen replaced Harvey Keitel after shooting had begun), Sheen then had a near-fatal heart attack, Brando was intractable and out of shape, and Coppola himself was mentally fragile. Being similar in appe ...

| | | | | Rudolph: Encyclopedia II - Apocalypse Now - Themes Apocalypse Now is a thematically rich film. The primary motif of the film is that of Heart of Darkness, i.e. an odyssey into the darkness of humanity.
Willard's constant narration gives us a glimpse into his fractured psychological state particularly in the opening scenes where he lies in his bed and stares blankly into the ceiling. He relates that he is on his second tour of duty and that he returned because he was unable to re-integrate himself into civilian life.

| | | | | Rudolph: Encyclopedia II - Apocalypse Now - Responses Apocalypse Now premiered in 1979 to mixed reviews and recieved polarized responses from the audiences. It is said that it was as lauded as it was reviled. Many critics slammed the film, calling it overly pretentious, while others felt that it ended anticlimatically after a splendid first act.
Roger Ebert, who hailed it as the best film of 1979 and added it to his list of Great Movies stated:
"Apocalypse Now is the best Vietnam film, one of the greatest of all films, because it pushes beyond the others, into the dark places of the soul. It is not about war so much as about how war reveals truths ...

| | | | | Rudolph: Encyclopedia II - History of Bavaria - Bavaria and the Agilolfings under Frankish Overlordship The Bavarians soon came under the dominion of the Franks, probably without a serious struggle. The Franks likely regarded this border area as mainly being useful as a buffer zone against peoples to the east, such as the Avars and the Slavs, and as a source of manpower for the army. Sometime around 550 they put it under the administration of a duke -- possibly Frankish or possibly chosen from amongst the local leading families -- who was supposed to act as a regional governor for the Frankish king. The first duke we know of, and likely the fi ...
