   X ( Latin: “may you have the body”) is a writ, or legal action,
   through which a prisoner can be released from unlawful detention,
   that is, detention lacking sufficient cause or evidence. The remedy
   can be sought by the prisoner or by another person coming to their
   aid. X originated in the English legal system to assist wealthy
   landowners, but it is now available in many nations. It has
   historically been an important legal instrument safeguarding
   individual freedom of certain individuals against arbitrary state
   action. It is a writ requiring a person to be brought before a judge.

25)Give me X

  X, is a novel by the French writer and nobleman Donatien
  Alphonse Franois, Marquis de Sade, written in 1785. It tells the
  story of four wealthy male libertines who resolve to experience the
  ultimate sexual gratification in orgies. To do this, they seal
  themselves away for four months in an inaccessible castle in
  Saint-Martin-de-Belleville, France, with a harem of 46 victims,
  mostly young male and female teenagers, and engage four female
  brothel keepers to tell the stories of their lives and adventures. The
  women’s narratives form an inspiration for the sexual abuse and
  torture of the victims, which gradually mounts in intensity and
  ends in their slaughter. The work remained unpublished until the
  twentieth century. In recent times it has been translated into many
  languages, including English, Japanese and German. Due to its
  themes of sexual violence and extreme cruelty, it has frequently
  been banned.

26) Give me the name of the painting

   The well-known surrealist piece introduced the image of the soft
   melting pocket watch. It epitomizes X’s theory of ”softness” and
   ”hardness”, which was central to his thinking at the time. As
   Dawn Ades wrote, ”The soft watches are an unconscious symbol of
   the relativity of space and time, a Surrealist meditation on the
   collapse of our notions of a fixed cosmic order”.This interpretation
   suggests that X was incorporating an understanding of the world
   introduced by Albert Einstein’s Special Theory of Relativity. Asked
   by Ilya Prigogine whether this was in fact the case, X replied that
   the soft watches were not inspired by the theory of relativity, but
   by the surrealist perception of a Camembert cheese melting in the
   sun. Although fundamentally part of X’s Freudian phase, the
   imagery precedes his transition to his scientific phase by fourteen
   years, which occurred after the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and
   Nagasaki in 1945.

                       Chandrashekar K A   SJCE General Quiz
26) Give me the name of the painting (continued...)


   It is possible to recognize a human figure in the middle of the
   composition, in the strange ”monster” that X used in several
   period pieces to represent himself the abstract form becoming
   something of a self-portrait, reappearing frequently in his work.
   The orange clock at the bottom left of the painting is covered in
   ants. X often used ants in his paintings as a symbol for death, as
   well as a symbol of female genitalia. The figure in the middle of
   the picture can be read as a ”fading” creature, one that often
   appears in dreams where the dreamer cannot pinpoint the
   creature’s exact form and composition. One can observe that the
   creature has one closed eye with several eyelashes, suggesting that
   the creature is also in a dream state.

The orange clock at the bottom left of the painting is covered in ants. X often used ants in his paintings as a symbol for death, as well as a symbol of female genitalia. The figure in the middle of the picture can be read as a ”fading” creature, one that often appears in dreams where the dreamer cannot pinpoint the creature’s exact form and composition. One can observe that the creature has one closed eye with several eyelashes, suggesting that the creature is also in a dream state. Chandrashekar K A SJCE General Quiz
