Begun in , The Sinking of the Lusitania was his follow-up to Gertie. Excerpted from the introduction to Little Sammy Sneeze. McCay's first popular comic strip was Little Sammy Sneeze. But just like the innocent actions of its protagonist, this book demonstrates that Little Sammy Sneeze tosses an unexpected wallop at the world of comic strip art.

What's even clearer, though, is the commonalities. Folding the large sheet created a four-page comic section with full color on the front and back pages, and two colors on the inside. Sammy is almost dadaesque in its simplicity and cheerful, if predictable sneeze-induced chaos and the other strip collected here, Hungry Henrietta, is similarly obsessive, if more poignant, in its central theme. McCay understands this helplessness, and recasts the fantastical humor of his young protagonists as reactions to adulthood, rather than actions toward adults. Marion felt domineered by her mother and perceived that her brother was her mother's favorite; she was closer to her father and often appeared in public with him. Biographer John Canemaker assumed McCay's request to tour Europe was turned down, and that the refusal added to McCay's growing frustration with the Herald.

Published in the daily The New York Evening Telegram, McCay’s adult works included Dream of the Rarebit Fiend (1904-1911), A Pilgrim’s Progress by Mr. Bunion (1905-1909) and Poor Jake (1909-1911).

  • Michal Jutkiewicz (Jagiellonian University)
    Michal Jutkiewicz (Jagiellonian University) On Comprehending Comics, or Little Nemo in the Land of (Meta)Narratology Postclassical Narratology and Comics1 When David Herman, in Storytelling and The Science of the Mind (2013), bases his theories concerning the cognitive methods of constructing the narrative world and the storyworld on analysis of various comic book works, he does so in a telling manner. Herman employs comics not to debate their narrative potential and specifi c methods of constructing the narrative in the comic book medium; instead, he presents panels from Hulk to stress his openness to non-literary methods of constructing a story2. With that, he places himself in opposition to the kind of classical narratology conceived by Genette, one that rarely moved past a literature-centric approach. He follows scholars such as Barthes or Eco, who from time to time turned towards the medium of comics, stressing its novelty and abnormality3. Such an approach allows Herman not to concern himself with the defi nitions and terms typical in comics studies (e.g., absent from his ana- lysis is, for example, the term “sequencing”). For Herman, the essence of comics is their polysemy, the fact that they have a textual, or more exactly, a linguistic layer, and a visual, or a graphic one4. These two modalities, according to Herman, create a verbal narrative and a graphic narrative that together constitute a larger, more complicated main narra- tive5. The essence of comics is thus located in its panels. They are the smallest elements of the medium, in which the two codes converge to constitute the basis of a narrative.

Robb In 2006 Lucy Shelton Caswell, the curator of the Ohio State University Cartoon Research Library, received a call from a local businesswoman who wanted to bring in some old cartoon drawings that she had found. The Library does not provide appraisal or authentication services, so Caswell attempted to direct her elsewhere. The woman was very persistent, however, so Caswell agreed to see her the next day. The woman walked in with a shabby, portfolio-sized cardboard box from which she produced eleven large hand-colored drawings that Caswell was astonished to discover were original comic strips by Winsor McCay. McCay is considered one of the greatest comic strip artists of all time, a master and pioneer of the art form. Caswell was particularly surprised, because these drawings were from McCay‟s very first newspaper comic strip series, A Tale of the Jungle Imps. Until then, no Jungle Imps originals were known to have survived from an era when comics were considered ephemera: something to be enjoyed today and then discarded tomorrow. For the most part, original comic strips were not collected or preserved by museums, libraries or collectors, and although some artists saved their originals, most were destroyed or disappeared. Somehow these eleven had survived and had found their way to the Cartoon Research Library.

  • Myths of the Child: from Hermes to Harry Potter
    ENL 2930 (4709) Instructor: John Cech(V) Spring 2014 109 Little Hall T4/Th4-5 Myths of the Child: From Hermes to Harry Potter The child is all that is abandoned and at the same time divinely powerful; the insignificant, dubious beginning and the triumphal end. The “eternal child” in man is an indescribable experience, an incongruity, a handicap, and a divine prerogative. CARL JUNG The goal of this course is to explore the range of the mythic paradigms that have been with us, often for millennia, in our various representations of the child. It will examine such fundamental archetypes of the child as those expressions of him/ her as a redemptive source and a creative genius, as a wiley trickster and an innocent observer, as a “bad seed” and a symbol of futurity, as a heroic magician and as a rebel, with and without causes. This constellation of meanings attached to the child will be approached through readings in mythology and depth psychology, through films and other media, and through famous “touchstone” works of children’s literature. Readings A variety of readings and viewings will be assigned during the course. These texts are available through campus and online book stores; video material can be found at Library West and other libraries, video stores, and Netflix. Other works are accessible online. Additional texts will be added to this core list during the course. Blake, William. Songs of Innocence; Songs of Experience (online etext). Burnett, Frances Hodgson.The Secret Garden. Homeric Hymn to Hermes (online etext). Hughes, Richard. A High Wind in Jamaica.
