(2021). Goblin Slayer as an Anti-hero in Kumo Kagyu’s Goblin Slayer Yogyakarta: Department of English Letters. Faculty of Letters. Universitas Sanata Dharma. This study discusses a novel entitled “Goblin Slayer”. The objective of writing this thesis is derived from the writer’s curiosity to find out the characterization of Goblin Slayer in the novel, and also to find out how Goblin Slayer’s characteristics reveal him as anti-hero. There are two problems related to the topic of this thesis: (1) How are the characteristics of Goblin Slayer described? And, (2) How do Goblin Slayer’s characteristics reveal him as anti-hero? In order to answer the problems, structuralism approach was used. The researcher decided to take the structuralism approach for his analysis because of the main idea of structuralism that emphasized upon the relationship among the component of a literary work such as the relationship of characterization, method of characterizations and the characteristics as anti-hero. The theory was used to reveal Goblin Slayer characterization through his personal description, how the other characters saw him, speeches, his past life, etc, and related them to anti-hero theory. A library study method was also applied in this study. There were two sources used: primary and secondary sources. The primary data was the novel Goblin Slayer itself. The secondary data were of the data from the online journals, online criticism on the novel, the theory of character and characterization, and theory of anti-hero. Based on the analysis, there are two points that can be presented in the conclusions. The first conclusion is the about the characteristics. In the novel Goblin Slayer by Kumo Kagyu, Goblin Slayer is brutal, revengeful, unsympathetic person, a heartless warrior as well as a clumsy person He is also a pathetic person and a weak warrior. He is not granted great power and ability. The second conclusion about the relation of the characteristic and his figure as anti- hero in the story. Goblin Slayer is a perfect anti-hero. He is the central character of the story; even the

  • Exploring the Procedural Rhetoric of a Black Lives Matter-Themed Newsgame
    Special Issue: Gamifying News Convergence: The International Journal of Research into Endless mode: New Media Technologies 1–13 ª The Author(s) 2020 Exploring the procedural Article reuse guidelines: sagepub.com/journals-permissions rhetoric of a Black Lives DOI: 10.1177/1354856520918072 Matter-themed newsgame journals.sagepub.com/home/con Allissa V Richardson University of Southern California, USA Abstract A week after the back-to-back police shootings of Philando Castile and Alton Sterling in early July 2016, a game developer, who goes by the screen name Yvvy, sat in front of her console mulling over the headlines. She designed a newsgame that featured civilian–police interactions that were plucked from that reportage. She entitled it Easy Level Life. The newsgame is fashioned in what developers call ‘endless mode’, where players are challenged to last as long as possible against a continuing threat, with limited resources or player-character lives. This case study explores the procedural rhetoric of Easy Level Life to investigate how it condemns police brutality through play. Using Teun van Dijk’s concept of ‘news as discourse’ as the framework, I found that this newsgame followed the narrative structure of a traditional newspaper editorial very closely. I explain how the situation–evaluation–conclusion discursive model best describes how Easy Level Life conveys its political ideologies. I conclude by suggesting that this discursive model should perhaps become a benchmarking tool for future newsgame developers who aim to strengthen their arguments for social justice. Keywords Black Lives Matter, discourse analysis, journalism, newsgames, procedural rhetoric, race, social justice Introduction It was a simple request.

WowBy Jasmine RobersonI absolutely loved this story! It threw me through quite a few loops at first and it really brought me home and touched my heart and soul. I love this book! And I love how it's not about the main protagonist, the protagonist of this story is actually a side character which made it even more interesting cause then you get someone else's story and root for them instead of the actual lucky protagonist who seemed to be more of a spy than anything.

  • A Genealogy of Antihero∗
    A GENEALOGY OF ANTIHERO∗ Murat KADİROĞLU∗∗ Abstract “Antihero”, as a literary term, entered literature in the nineteenth century with Dostoevsky, and its usage flourished in the second half of the twentieth century. However, the antihero protagonists or characters have been on stage since the early Greek drama and their stories are often told in the works of the twentieth century literature. The notion of “hero” sets the base for “antihero”. In every century, there are heroes peculiar to their time; meanwhile, antiheroes continue to live as well, though not as abundant as heroes in number. The gap between them in terms of their personality, moral code and value judgements is very obvious in their early presentation; however, the closer we come to our age, the vaguer this difference becomes. In contemporary literature, antiheroes have begun to outnumber heroes as a result of historical, political and sociological facts such as wars, and literary pieces have tended to present themes of failure, inaction, uncertainty and despair rather than heroism and valour. This study argues that Second World War has the crucial impact on the development of the notion of modern antihero. As a consequence of the war, “hero” as the symbol of valour, adventure, change and action in the legends and epic poems has been transformed into “antihero” of failure and despair, especially in realist, absurdist and existentialist works written during/after the Second World War. Keywords: Antihero, Hero, Heroism, Protagonist, Romantic Hero, Second World War, Post-war Öz Anti-kahramanın Soykütüğü Edebi bir terim olarak “anti-kahraman” ya da “karşı-kahraman”, on dokuzuncu yüzyılda Dostoyevski ile edebiyata girmiştir ve kullanımı yirminci yüzyılın ikinci yarısında doruğa ulaşmıştır.

  • Glossary of Literary Terms
    Glossary of Critical Terms for Prose Adapted from “LitWeb,” The Norton Introduction to Literature Study Space http://www.wwnorton.com/college/english/litweb10/glossary/C.aspx Action Any event or series of events depicted in a literary work; an event may be verbal as well as physical, so that speaking or telling a story within the story may be an event. Allusion A brief, often implicit and indirect reference within a literary text to something outside the text, whether another text (e.g. the Bible, a myth, another literary work, a painting, or a piece of music) or any imaginary or historical person, place, or thing. Ambiguity When we are involved in interpretation—figuring out what different elements in a story “mean”—we are responding to a work’s ambiguity. This means that the work is open to several simultaneous interpretations. Language, especially when manipulated artistically, can communicate more than one meaning, encouraging our interpretations. Antagonist A character or a nonhuman force that opposes, or is in conflict with, the protagonist. Anticlimax An event or series of events usually at the end of a narrative that contrast with the tension building up before. Antihero A protagonist who is in one way or another the very opposite of a traditional hero. Instead of being courageous and determined, for instance, an antihero might be timid, hypersensitive, and indecisive to the point of paralysis. Antiheroes are especially common in modern literary works. Archetype A character, ritual, symbol, or plot pattern that recurs in the myth and literature of many cultures; examples include the scapegoat or trickster (character type), the rite of passage (ritual), and the quest or descent into the underworld (plot pattern).

  • The Antihero in Popular Culture: Life History Theory and the Dark Triad Personality Traits
    Review of General Psychology © 2012 American Psychological Association 2012, Vol. 16, No. 2, 192–199 1089-2680/12/$12.00 DOI: 10.1037/a0027914 The Antihero in Popular Culture: Life History Theory and the Dark Triad Personality Traits Peter K. Jonason Gregory D. Webster University of Western Sydney University of Florida David P. Schmitt Norman P. Li Bradley University Singapore Management University Laura Crysel University of Florida The Dark Triad of personality is composed of narcissism, psychopathy, and Machiavellianism. Despite the common belief that these traits are undesirable, the media is awash with characters that embody the Dark Triad. Characters like Gregory House, M.D., Batman (a.k.a. the Dark Knight), and James Bond all embody these traits and are some of the most popular media franchises today. As entertaining as these characters are, they provide us with a window into the dark side of human nature. Instead of treating the dark side of human nature as inherently maladaptive, we provide an alternative view that, despite their costs, traits like these can confer reproductive and survival benefits for the individual. In so doing, we review the research on the Dark Triad traits and provide a theoretical account for how these traits can confer some positive benefits. To facilitate comprehension, we provide examples taken from the media to show how evolutionary psychology and popular culture intersect. Keywords: Dark Triad, narcissism, Machiavellianism, psychopathy, Life History Theory The Dark Triad, composed of subclinical narcissism, psychopathy, Schmitt, 2009; Jonason, Valentine, Li, & Harbeson, 2011). Not and Machiavellianism, has become an increasingly popular constel- surprisingly, these traits have repeatedly been seen as part of the lation of traits (see Figure 1).

  • Grey Morality of the Colonized Subject in Postwar Japanese Cinema and Contemporary Manga
    EITHER 'SHINING WHITE OR BLACKEST BLACK': GREY MORALITY OF THE COLONIZED SUBJECT IN POSTWAR JAPANESE CINEMA AND CONTEMPORARY MANGA Elena M. Aponte A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2017 Committee: Khani Begum, Advisor Kristen Rudisill © 2017 Elena M. Aponte All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Khani Begum, Advisor The cultural and political relationship between Japan and the United States is often praised for its equity, collaboration, and mutual respect. To many, the alliance between Japan and the United States serves as a testament for overcoming a violent and antagonistic past. However, the impact of the United States occupation and the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki is rarely discussed in light of this alliance. The economic revival, while important to Japan’s reentry into the global market, inevitably obscured continuing paternalistic interactions between Japan and the United States. Using postcolonial theory from Homi K. Bhahba, Frantz Fanon, and Hiroshi Yoshioka as a foundation, this study examines the ways Japan was colonized during and after the seven-year occupation by the United States. The following is a close assessment of two texts and their political significance at two specific points in history. Akira Kurosawa's1948 noir film Drunken Angel (Yoidore Tenshi) shaped the identity of postwar Japan; Yasuhiro Nightow’s Trigun manga series navigates cultural amnesia and American exceptionalism during the 1990s after the Bubble Economy fell into recession in 1995. These texts are worthy of simultaneous assessment because of the ways they incorporate American archetypes, iconography, and themes into their work while still adhering to Japanese cultural concerns.

  • Comics and Webcomics: Super-Heroes, Over-Heroes and Poser-Heroes
    H-ermes. Journal of Communication H-ermes, J. Comm. 19 (2021), 249-262 ISSN 2284-0753, DOI 10.1285/i22840753n19p249 http://siba-ese.unisalento.it Comics and webcomics: super-heroes, over-heroes and poser-heroes Heraldo Aparecido Silva Comics and webcomics: super-heroes, over-heroes and poser-heroes. This article aims to analyse the superhero subgenre in comic books and webcomics. First, the study focuses on the characteristics of hero, superhero and antihero categories. Then we briefly describe some contemporary aspect of the history of the stories in superhero comics to propose the inclusion of two new sub-categories: the over-hero and the poser-hero. The theoretical foundation is based on authors such as: Moya (1977; 1994; 2003), Eco (1993), Mix (1993), Beirce (1993), Bloom (2002; 2003), McLauglin (2005), Knowles (2008), Irwin (2009), Mazur; Danner (2014), among others. The literature specializing in comic books and philosophical perspectives functions as analytical and theoretical support for the interpretation of themes taken from the superhero universe.With the advent of computer graphics and the internet, comic books have conquered new formats, new technologies and new audiences from a democratized distribution. In addition, two factors are important to understand the relevance of webcomics to the history of comics. First, as comics in print are scanned, the comics/webcomics distinction is not exclusive. In this text, we discuss about heroes and superheroes that can be found and read in both printed and digital formats. Second, webcomics have enabled many artists to achieve more visibility for their work through social media. From this perspective, we argue that the notion of webcomics evolve from the notion of comics.

  • Artistic Depictions of Sexual Violence Towards Women Have a Very Long
    Artistic depictions of sexual violence towards women have a very long history, with many of the oldest oral traditions and mytho-histories including stories that frequently contain cases of rape or sexual assault. The narrative or artistic intentions of these depictions vary wildly, as stories that include such deplorable acts can consider them either grievous crime or wacky hijinks depending on the tale in question. There is a larger historical precedent for stories to see such violence as inherently villainous, often as an inciting incident for a tale of revenge. In modern storytelling, there are those closer to feminist ideas, like I Spit on Your Grave, and more regressive depictions such as Taken, with its threat of sexual violence towards the daughter of Liam Neeson’s character being used to add suspense. There is a long debate in the field of television and cinema regarding visual depictions of sexual violence towards women, and how they can be done in an effective and artistic way to contribute to the piece without being exploitative or worse, gratuitous. Then there is Goblin Slayer. An anime, light novel, and manga series produced in Japan; Goblin Slayer is a dark fantasy series that follows the exploits of the zealous warrior, known as the Goblin Slayer. In a world of other fantasy adventurers, he is seen as an oddity due to his refusal to take contracts to slay monsters other than goblins, and for the extreme prejudice he uses in his desire to eradicate them. He is belittled for this, but the fact that, in this world, goblins only reproduce by kidnapping and raping women of other races means that he doesn’t go without praise or support.
