Exploring works by Alexander Pushkin, Nikolai Gogol, Fyodor Dostoevsky, and Faddei Bulgarin, I view tropes such as spending, counterfeiting, hoarding, and gambling, as well as plots of mad or blocked ambition, in relation to the cultural and economic history of Nicholas I’s reign and in the context of the importation of economic discourse and literary conventions from abroad. Furthermore, I consider the impact of culturally and economically conditioned affects—ambition, avarice, and embarrassment—on narrative tone.

THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF AN EX-COLORED MAN James Weldon Johnson 1912 PREFACE TO THE ORIGINAL EDITION OF 1912 This vivid and startlingly new picture of conditions brought about by the race question in the United States makes no special plea for the Negro, but shows in a dispassionate, though sympathetic, manner conditions as they actually exist between the whites and blacks to-day. Special pleas have already been made for and against the Negro in hundreds of books, but in these books either his virtues or his vices have been exaggerated. This is because writers, in nearly every instance, have treated the colored American as a whole; each has taken some one group of the race to prove his case.

  • Seeing Through the Shadows
    MUSIC IN THE SHADOWS Jazz, Race & Ideology in Classical Film Noir Erlend Flydal Finstad Master of Film and Television Studies Inland Norway University of Applied Sciences Spring 2019 Acknowledgement I want to thank my lecturers at the University of Manchester and Inland Norway University, where I have undertaken my bachelor’s and master’s degree, respectively, for inspiring me in the process of researching and writing this thesis. I am also indebted to the UCLA Special Collections, the Margaret Herrick Library, the USC Warner Bros archives, and the BFI Special Collections for granting me permission to view the screenplay material and other production files for the films that are explored in this study. My masters project would have looked very different without insights into these files, which have offered me invaluable information on the varying stances that Hollywood filmmakers took towards jazz in the 1940s and 1950s. Gratitude also goes out to jazz archivist Mark Cantor for helping me identify some of the unbilled and uncredited jazz musicians that appear onscreen in classical film noir. 3 Contents Acknowledgement ................................................................................................. 3 Illustrations ............................................................................................................ 6 Introduction ........................................................................................................... 8 1.
