	Merton: The Role Set
		Linton went on to state the long recognized and basic fact that each person in society inevitably occupies multiple statuses and that each of these statuses has an associated role.
		The difference is initially a small one, some might say so small as not to deserve notice, but it involves a shift in the angle of vision which leads, I believe, to successively greater differences of a fundamental kind.
		Unlike Linton, I begin with the premise that each social status involves not a single associated role, but an array of roles.

		Linton noted the origin of all the things this hypothetical chauvinist might use and do, from the time he woke in the morning till the time he caught a train for work.
		As is the case with all countries, the subsistence of Americans and their comforts and pleasures are overwhelmingly the outcome of foreign influences; the creative achievements of usually unknown individuals coming from cultures that many contemporary Americans would regard as inferior.

	final
		First studied in the 1930s by eminent anthropologist Ralph Linton, Nacirema women have been found to partake in what can only be termed as a barbaric ritual which has been passed down through the ages from mother to daughter.
		It was understood by Professor Linton that females fear any similarities to the male gender, who are marked by growth in these two areas.
		No answer has been generally accepted especially since, according to Professor Linton “ the culture of this people is still very poorly understood.” The best reason seems to be that the elimination ritual is part of some self-adoration belief that is foremost in the Nacirema female psyche.

		Both Juliette Binoche and Ralph Fiennes are very capable actors, but neither is remotely suited to the role each plays in this film.
		Binoche lacks the passion of the first Catherine and the vulnerability of the second, so, despite what is technically a good performance, she appears totally out of place.
		Ralph Fiennes’s performance is much worse, however, and borders on the pantomime villain.

		Ralph Linton, on page four of his book, Halloween Through Twenty Centuries, explains the connection between the current practice of Halloween and a pagan rite practiced by the ancient Druids.
		The horse was sacred to the Sun God," says Linton, which indicated that this custom was a survival of a Druid rite.
		Protestants have continued the celebration of Halloween in part because "it was on this day in 1517, that Martin Luther posted his epoch-making ninety-five theses on the door of the castle church at Wittenberg" which started the Protestant Reformation.

		Far from being Christian, this festival is an old pagan holiday, masquerading as though it were one of the customs of the church.
		Almost all heathen nations had days in honor of the dead— days originally instituted to commemorate the death of Nimrod (Genesis 10:8-10) whom Semiramis, his wife, said was still alive.
		Notice that the celebration of Halloween, the eve of the day, is as old as the celebration of All Saints’ Day in the Catholic Church.
