    PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING, SPORTS ENTERTAINMENT AND THE LIMINAL EXPERIENCE IN AMERICAN CULTURE By AARON D, FEIGENBAUM A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2000 Copyright 2000 by Aaron D. Feigenbaum ACKNOWLEDGMENTS There are many people who have helped me along the way, and I would like to express my appreciation to all of them. I would like to begin by thanking the members of my committee - Dr. Heather Gibson, Dr. Amitava Kumar, Dr. Norman Market, and Dr. Anthony Oliver-Smith - for all their help. I especially would like to thank my Chair, Dr. John Moore, for encouraging me to pursue my chosen field of study, guiding me in the right direction, and providing invaluable advice and encouragement. Others at the University of Florida who helped me in a variety of ways include Heather Hall, Jocelyn Shell, Jim Kunetz, and Farshid Safi. I would also like to thank Dr. Winnie Cooke and all my friends from the Teaching Center and Athletic Association for putting up with me the past few years. From the World Wrestling Federation, I would like to thank Vince McMahon, Jr., and Jim Byrne for taking the time to answer my questions and allowing me access to the World Wrestling Federation. A very special thanks goes out to Laura Bryson who provided so much help in many ways. I would like to thank Ed Garea and Paul MacArthur for answering my questions on both the history of professional wrestling and the current sports entertainment product.

  • Coda: the Value of Architecture
    A General Theory of Value, Coda .......Page 11–1 Not to be duplicated or cited without author's permission. THE VALUE OF ARCHITECTURE being the Coda of A General Theory of Value © 2003, Michael Benedikt We have been engaged in what could fairly be described as a study of the architecture of value—with "architecture" understood quite abstractly. Here, in the Coda, we turn to the value of architecture quite literally. Our question: can the theory of value developed in this book shed light upon how architecture is valued?—and, by extension, how the whole designed, built, and landscaped physical world is valued? Or ought to be? We ask because around the world the quality of buildings and the condition of the physical environment is for the most part lamentable and on the whole getting worse. At the beginning of the 21st century, several overlapping factors can be listed as contributing to this trend: • continued rapid population growth in and around cities, causing crowding and over-stressing all physical and legal infrastructures; • powerful market forces, intensified by globalization, riding roughshod over traditional practices, values, and uses of the land; • distraction by the mass media and by other technologically-assisted entertainments and communication systems; • a general lack of understanding of the kind of good that (good) architecture is, and the value of what it does for everyone, not just for elites; A General Theory of Value, Coda .......Page 11–2 • people's passion for individual freedom over liberty—freedom in the form of physical mobility, job opportunity, experiential variety, "better deals," and greater consumer choice...at almost all costs; • citizen reluctance to pay (and government reluctance to dedicate) the tax monies required to create and keep public buildings in good repair and civic spaces a reason for pride; • the values, doctrines, and strategies of architects, engineers, and other design professionals throughout the latter part of the 20th century attempting to respond to above conditions—but exacerbating them instead.

An invaluable teaching tool.By Rob MooreThis book can benefit folks on two levels: those who can actually use it as a practical curriculum (those who can actually go through the rigors of professional wrestling training), and those like me who may be physically unable to do it but want a better understanding of what it takes to be successful. With the territories gone, wrestling needs more true trainers like Dr. Tom, Rudy Boy Gonzalez and others to pass their knowledge on to the next generation. This book is a great start in showing the ropes.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
