The long silver blades created a loud clank­ ing each time they touched, as the sisters danced in well-coordinated steps, creating a visual and audio performance. The ma­ chete dance was meaningful to the Lamda Theta Nu sisters; more than just a flashy show. Senior Anita Buitrago explained, "We wanted to show that women could also step with machetes." The machete dance is a traditional Mexican art, usually performed by men to display their mas­ culinity, according to Buitrago.

  • “Grunge Killed Glam Metal” Narrative by Holly Johnson
    The Interplay of Authority, Masculinity, and Signification in the “Grunge Killed Glam Metal” Narrative by Holly Johnson A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Music and Culture Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2014, Holly Johnson ii Abstract This thesis will deconstruct the "grunge killed '80s metal” narrative, to reveal the idealization by certain critics and musicians of that which is deemed to be authentic, honest, and natural subculture. The central theme is an analysis of the conflicting masculinities of glam metal and grunge music, and how these gender roles are developed and reproduced. I will also demonstrate how, although the idealized authentic subculture is positioned in opposition to the mainstream, it does not in actuality exist outside of the system of commercialism. The problematic nature of this idealization will be examined with regard to the layers of complexity involved in popular rock music genre evolution, involving the inevitable progression from a subculture to the mainstream that occurred with both glam metal and grunge. I will illustrate the ways in which the process of signification functions within rock music to construct masculinities and within subcultures to negotiate authenticity. iii Acknowledgements I would like to thank firstly my academic advisor Dr. William Echard for his continued patience with me during the thesis writing process and for his invaluable guidance. I also would like to send a big thank you to Dr. James Deaville, the head of Music and Culture program, who has given me much assistance along the way.

  • The Diurnal Order of the Image in Dracula, by Bram Stoker
    THE DIURNAL ORDER OF THE IMAGE IN DRACULA, BY BRAM STOKER O REGIME DIURNO DA IMAGEM EM DRÁCULA, DE BRAM STOKER Claudio Vescia Zanini1 In reality, the acceptance of the shadow-side of human nature verges on the impossible. Consider for a moment what it means to grant the right of existence to what is unreasonable, senseless, and evil! Yet it is just this that the modern man insists upon. He wants to live with every side of himself – to know what he is. That is why he casts history aside. He wants to break with tradition so that he can experiment with his life and determine what value and meaning things have in themselves, apart from traditional presuppositions. Carl Gustav Jung. Psychology and Religion: West and East ABSTRACT: The article proposes a reading of Bram Stoker’s Dracula analyzing the imagery in the novel in accordance with the Diurnal Order of the Image (DURAND, 1999), a perspective that encompasses images within three antithetical dichotomies: the theriomorphic and diæretic images (respectively related to an animal archetypology and to the devices and weapons of the hero), the nyctomorphic and spectacular images (related to darkness and light) and catamorphic and ascensional images, which are connected to falling and rising. The conclusion highlights the universality in the imagery Stoker employs in his work, which might explain Dracula’s timelessness and power. KEYWORDS: Dracula; Victorian literature; diurnal order of the image; vampire fiction. RESUMO: O artigo propõe uma leitura de Drácula, de Bram Stoker analisando as imagens no romance de acordo com o Regime Diurno da Imagem (DURAND, 1999), uma perspectiva que engloba o imaginário com base em três dicotomias antitéticas: as imagens teriomórficas e diairéticas (respectivamente relacionadas a uma arquetipologia animal e às armas e recursos do herói), as imagens nictomórficas e espetaculares (relacionadas à escuridão e à luz) e as imagens catamórficas e ascensionais, ligadas à queda e à ascensão.

  • CAPÍTULO IV Drácula No Cinema: Cenas De Uma Erótica Prometeica
    CAPÍTULO IV Drácula no cinema: Cenas de uma erótica prometeica Rogério de Almeida1 Marcos N. Beccari2 Variações sobre o mesmo tema ou os filmes de vampiros Uma busca rápida pelo Internet Movie Database (www.imdb.com) com a entrada “Drácula” retorna uma lista de duzentos filmes. O mesmo ocorre com “Vampiro”. São filmes que contém a palavra no título. Se acrescermos os filmes pautados na temática, mas que não trazem “Drácula” ou “Vampiro” no título, a lista se agiganta ainda mais, com películas tão improváveis quanto Martin (1976), Fome de Viver (1983), Procura-se Rapaz Virgem (1985), Os Garotos Perdidos (1987), Um Drink no Inferno (1996), Van Helsing (2004), que mistura Drácula com Frankenstein, Deixa Ela Entrar (2008), Amantes Eternos (2013), e o mais importante de todos, Nosferatu (1922), de F. W. Murnau, refilmado brilhantemente por Werner Herzog em 1979. Há também variações de todo tipo, como A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night (2014), anunciado como “o primeiro Western de vampiros iraniano”. O que dizer de Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter (2012), que pós-modernamente transforma o 16º presidente dos EUA (1861-1865) num caçador de vampiros? 171 O mito de Drácula CAPÍTULO IV A vasta filmografia sobre o mito do vampirismo também pode ser abordada numa perspectiva histórica e não restará uma só década sem numerosos representantes. O pri- meiro filme do gênero é de 1908, Les vampires de la côte, um curta francês hoje desaparecido sobre o qual restam poucas informações. De 1913, temos The Vampire, também desapare- cido, e Vampire of the Desert, cuja história gira em torno de uma vampira de nome Lispeth.

First Summer Session May 21-June 25, 2018 Topics in English: The Many Lives of Count Dracula 2090-080 Morin 100% Online Bram Stoker created Dracula through the careful storytelling of his various narrators, but one very important voice is missing: Dracula's. This online course will examine what that absence has meant for over a century's worth of Dracula fiction. Beginning with the definitive novel, we will then explore how authors and filmmakers have chosen to interpret this enigmatic and fascinating figure. We will analyze fiction, such as The Dracula Tape, to address how the Count has fared after his battle with Van Helsing. Films, such as Nosferatu, Coppola's dark Bram Stoker's Dracula, Wes Craven's modern Dracula 2000, and the comedic Dracula: Dead and Loving It, will be compared to Bram Stoker's text, with special attention to the filmmaker's vision of Dracula.

  • Consuming Appetites and the Modern Vampire S
    S. Brooke Cameron and Suyin Olguin 79 Consuming Appetites and the Modern Vampire S. Brooke Cameron and Suyin Olguin, Queen's University, Ontario Abstract : This article looks at food and the role of appetitive consumption in modern representations of the vampire. Most critics have read vampire as embodying Victorian fears surrounding fin-de-siècle desire and sexual decadence. We instead want to shift the discussion to food and eating rituals. Using Francis Ford Coppola‘s Bram Stoker‘s Dracula as a bridge text, ―Consuming Appetites and the Modern Vampire‖ compares the British tradition, which advocates disciplined appetites as defense against Dracula‘s demonic invasion, with modern American texts, which celebrate the vampire as a reflection of its own culture of excess consumption. The vampire is marked as Other precisely by his inability to control his appetite, and the disciplined appetite is essential insofar as it differentiates between the human and vampiric Other. It is this legacy of appetitive excess which continues to inform our modern interpretations of the vampire, whether this figure is a direct inheritor of Dracula or a more sympathetic, even domesticated, vampire. Key words: Dracula, Vampire, Blood, Eating, Consumption, Meat, Appetite, Other, British, American Revenant 1.1 (2015) S. Brooke Cameron and Suyin Olguin 80 Come, there is dinner. We must keep one another strong for what is before us. We have a cruel and dreadful task. When you have eaten you shall learn the rest, and I shall answer any questions you ask, if there be anything which you do not understand, though it was apparent to us who were present.
