Insbesondere der melodramatische Roman Peyton Place und seine diversen, transme- dialen Wiedergeburten erweist sich so als Schauplatz einer komplexen Selbstreflexion, in welcher die verschiedenen Medien nicht zuletzt auch ihre eigene, ungewisse und illegitime Genealogie zur Diskussion stellen.

    DEVELOPMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION OF A FEMINIST LITERARY PERSPECTIVE Susan Koppelman Cornillon A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 1975 Graduate School Representativ BOWLING GREEN STATE UNIVERSITY LIBRARY a. © 1975 SUSAN KOPPELMAN CORNILLON ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii 610310 -SM» A'W VMi .^00 ABSTRACT This study examines the need for feminist criticism and how best to fill it. Feminist criticism is needed to restore objectivity to a literature and criticism distorted by sexism. The most pernicious effects of masculine bias upon the cre­ ation and consumption of literature are expressed through the literary-critical establishment--publishers, critics, profes­ sors, and librarians. Sexist criticism in its most insidious form masks biased evaluations as objective description, and removes literature and criticism from its socio-historical context. The subjec­ tive distortion implicit in a sexist perspective is fundamen­ tally hierarchical; it imposes a vertical evaluative structure upon a multi-faceted socio-historical reality. A critical per­ spective that divorces evaluative distinctions from a socio- historical rationale, whilst claiming that these idealistic dis­ tinctions are anything more than objectifications of subjective bias, and uses that structure to determine the creation and con­ sumption of literature, seriously censors writers' and readers' perception of history and society, censorship that for women has proven spiritually crippling and murderous. So traditionally evaluative literary categorizations have been ignored. To liberate the literary-critical establishment from con­ trol by the masculino-centric critical conspiracy, means must be provided to unite feminist critics in creating and propaga­ ting feminist perspectives.

XLI (Nov. 1916) Turning aside from technical subjects to literature in general, I would like to say that although we have not ever attempted to force good books on our soldiers, we have of course taken great care to place them within their reach. And it is not an illusion to say that when the men once begin on a better class of book, they do not as a rule return to the old stuff which formerly constituted their whole range of reading. My own impression is that they read rubbish because they have had no one to tell them what to read. Stevenson, for instance, has lifted many a young soldier in our hospital on to a higher plane of reading whence he has looked down with something like scorn – which is really very funny – on his former favourites. For that group of readers, ‘Treasure Island’ has been a discovery in more senses than one, and to the librarians a boon unspeakable. We have had, however, a large number of men who in any case care for good literature, and indeed would read nothing else. Needless to say, we have had special pleasure in trying to find them some book which they would be sure to like and which was already in our collection, or else in buying it, and thus adding to our stock.

  • The History of NBC West Coast Studios
    1 The History Of NBC West Coast Studios By Bobby Ellerbee and Eyes Of A Generation.com Preface and Acknowledgement This is a unique look at the events that preceded the need for NBC television studios in Hollywood. As in New York, the radio division led the way. This project is somewhat different than the prior reports on the New York studios of NBC and CBS for two reasons. The first reason is that in that in those reports, television was brand-new and being developed through the mechanical function to an electronic phenomenon. Most of that work occurred in and around the networks’ headquarters in New York. In this case, both networks were at the mercy of geological and technological developments outside their own abilities: the Rocky Mountains and AT&T. The second reason has to do with the success of the network’s own stars. Their popularity on radio soon translated to public demand once “talking pictures” became possible. That led many New York based radio stars to Hollywood and, in a way, Mohamed had to come to the mountain. This story is told to the best of our abilities, as a great deal of the information on these facilities is now gone…like so many of the men and women who worked there. I’ve told this as concisely as possible, but some elements are dependent on the memories of those who were there many years ago, and from conclusions drawn from research. If you can add to this with facts or photos, please contact me as this is an ongoing project.

Four hypotheses were tested concerning the rela- tionships among ten variables. The independent variable was viewing; the intervening variable was perceived reality; and the dependent variables were knowledge of program con- tent, involvement, interaction, identification, companion- ship, escapism, boredom, and social utility. The following are hypotheses tested in this study: H1: The higher the amount of viewing, the greater the perceived reality. H2: The higher the amount of viewing, the more knowledge the viewer will have about program content. Mitzi Bond H3: The higher the amount of viewing, the greater the viewer's involvement, inter- action, and identification. H4: The higher the amount of viewing, the more functions watching soap operas will satisfy. A telephone survey was conducted in Lansing, Michigan, in August, 1974.
