  • A Feminist Criticism of House
    Lutzker 1 House is a medical drama based on the fictitious story of Dr . Gregory House, a cruelly sarcastic, yet brilliant, doctor . Dr . House works as a diagnostician at the Princeton-Plainsboro Hospital where he employs a team of young doctors who aspire to achieve greater success in their careers . Being a member of House’s team is a privilege, yet the team members must be able to tolerate Dr . House’s caustic sense of humor . Because of Dr . House’s brilliance, his coworkers and bosses alike tend to overlook his deviant and childish behaviors . Even though Dr . House’s leg causes him to be in severe pain every day, and has contributed to his negative outlook on life, both his patients and coworkers do not have much sympathy for him . The main goals of House’s outlandish behaviors are to solve the puzzle of his patients’ medical cases . Dr . House handpicks the patients whom he finds have interesting medical quandaries and attempts to diagnose them . By conferring with his team, and “asking” for permission from Dr . Lisa Cuddy, Dr . House is able to treat the patients as he sees fit . He usually does not diagnose the patients correctly the first time . However, with each new symptom, a new piece of the puzzle unfolds, giving a clearer view of the cause of illness . Dr . House typically manages to save the lives of his patients by the end of the episode, usually without having any physical contact with the patient . Dr . House has an arrogant and self-righteous personality . Some of the lines that are written for Dr .

House: A Dialogue on Abortion by Katie Condit It is a typical day in Princeton Plainsboro Hospital. Paramedics are hurriedly escorting trauma patients into the emergency room, nurses are attending to the many demands of patient needs, and Doctor Gregory House, famous diagnostician, is lounging in his office watching an episode of General Hospital. A small woman enters the hospital. She is about sixty years old, and it is evident that she has an important task to accomplish. With a glint of wisdom in her eyes, she approaches the information desk and requests to know where Dr. House’s office is. The secretary directs her to the elevators, and the woman sets off to see the noted physician. The woman calls herself Norma McCorvey, but you are more likely to recognize her as Jane Roe, the woman that helped launch the nation into a legal frenzy over the rights of women and the rights of the unborn child in the Roe v.

  • The Use of Impoliteness for the Construction of Interpersonal Relationships: the Case of the “Almighty” House M.D
    Jazyk a kultúra číslo 45-46/2021 The use of impoliteness for the construction of interpersonal relationships: the case of the “almighty” House M.D. Eduard Dran čák Institute of British and American Studies, Faculty of Arts, University of Prešov, Slovakia [email protected] Key words : impoliteness, rapport management, linguistic behavior, interpersonal relationships, interpersonal pragmatics, House M.D. 1 Introduction Interpersonal relationships represent an important asset for every human being functioning in the society. As social beings, humans are in various ways dependent on their relationships with other humans, be it in terms of basic human needs, such as the need not to feel alone, to feel loved, or more sophisticated needs, such as financial security or the fulfillment of one’s ambitions and desires. Navigating interpersonal relationships, including their continuous construction in each communicative situation, relies heavily on the use of language and linguistic behavior. The present paper examines the pragmatic role of a particular type of linguistic behavior, namely impoliteness, in the negotiation and for the construction of interpersonal relationships, as exemplified in the American TV series titled House M.D. The paper proceeds from providing an overview of the key works associated with (im)politeness research, through describing the research methodology and data, to the qualitative analysis of situated conversational interactions from the aforementioned TV series. 2 Literature review The focus of the present research is on the use of impoliteness for the construction of interpersonal relationships. Interpersonal relations, characterized as mutual social connections amongst people that are mediated by interaction, are of primary concern for interpersonal pragmatics (Culpeper – Haugh, 2014, p.

  • House and Philosophy Takes an Engaging Look at Everyone’S Favorite Misanthropic Genius and His Team at Princeton-Plainsboro Hospital
    PHILOSOPHY/POP CULTURE IRWIN Is being nice overrated? Are we really just selfi sh, base animals crawling HOUSE across Earth in a meaningless existence? Would reading less and watching more television be good for you? Is House a master of Eastern philosophy or just plain rude? Dr. Gregory House is arguably the most complex and challenging antihero in the history of television, but is there more to this self-important genius than AND gray matter and ego? This book takes a deeper look at House to reveal the PHILOSOPHY philosophical underpinnings of this popular medical drama and its cane-waving curmudgeon’s most outrageous behavior. What emerges is a remarkable character who is part Sherlock Holmes, part Socratic philosopher, part Nietzschean superman, part Taoist rhetorician, and not at all as screwed up as you might think. With everything from Aristotle to Zen, House and Philosophy takes an engaging look at everyone’s favorite misanthropic genius and his team at Princeton-Plainsboro Hospital.

  • Lisa Edelstein Before
    37 EDGE elevision is in the midst of a Golden Era. By most accounts, there are more inte rview T challenging, intelligent and interesting roles for women than ever Lisa Edelstein before. Which makes finding exactly the right actress to fill these roles more important than ever before. Producers would probably sleep a little easier if they could just print up a few dozen copies of Lisa Edelstein . During a career that stretches back more than two decades, she has distinguished herself as one of the most challenging, intelligent and interesting performers on American television. Lisa grew up in Wayne, the daughter of a pediatrician and a social worker. Her passion for performing took her to NYU and then MTV, and eventually to a series of recurring roles on series such as Seinfeld , Ally McBeal , Felicity , Leap of Faith and The s l l i H West Wing . After 150-plus episodes t r o h as one of the stars of House , Lisa was S , s e l picked to star in Girlfriends’ Guide to a d g n i Divorce —a series developed by Marti m o o l Noxon ( Buffy the Vampire Slayer , B , g N Grey’s Anatomy , Mad Men ) and A L T inspired by the best-selling line of u m L Girlfriends’ Guide books by Vicki E H : s s Iovine. The series is unique in many e r d respects, most notably as the first • l e a scripted series developed by the h p a R Bravo network. As EDGE Editor-at- e n i d a Large Tracey Smith discovered, this N y b is hardly what makes Lisa unique… o t o h and far from her first pioneering role.
