It is not a clearly defined event with formal conditions: it could lead to a wide range of possible outcomes and feelings in the listener. The bardic tradition that sweeps across human cultures and histories — from the Homeric ESSAY epics to the Sufis, from the biwa hoshi of Japan to the filí of Ireland — shows both the depth and breadth of the human impulse to hear verse aloud. But in our cosmopolitan present, poetry being “voiced” could run the gamut from adolescent (painful sincerity at an open mic) to adult (earnest readings at university book launches) to transhuman (Black Thought’s ten-minute freestyle). Though poetry always transports us somewhere, the destination could be anywhere in Dante’s universe: infernal, purgatorial, or paradisiacal. This particular poetry performance is, perhaps fittingly for the year 2020, set in that everyday limbo that is the cinema. It is consciously conceived for the large-scale screen — a crucial gesture, when so much life is being lived on small screens — and as a physical, collective experience, with an audience in plush CONTENTS BACK TO seats, bathed in light, feeling the powerful surround-sound system within their bodies.

  • Cultural Representations of the Moors Murderers and Yorkshire Ripper Cases
    CULTURAL REPRESENTATIONS OF THE MOORS MURDERERS AND YORKSHIRE RIPPER CASES by HENRIETTA PHILLIPA ANNE MALION PHILLIPS A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Modern Languages School of Languages, Cultures, Art History, and Music College of Arts and Law The University of Birmingham October 2016 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract This thesis examines written, audio-visual and musical representations of real-life British serial killers Myra Hindley and Ian Brady (the ‘Moors Murderers’) and Peter Sutcliffe (the ‘Yorkshire Ripper’), from the time of their crimes to the present day, and their proliferation beyond the cases’ immediate historical-legal context. Through the theoretical construct ‘Northientalism’ I interrogate such representations’ replication and engagement of stereotypes and anxieties accruing to the figure of the white working- class ‘Northern’ subject in these cases, within a broader context of pre-existing historical trajectories and generic conventions of Northern and true crime representation. Interrogating changing perceptions of the cultural functions and meanings of murderers in late-capitalist socio-cultural history, I argue that the underlying structure of true crime is the counterbalance between the exceptional and the everyday, in service of which its second crucial structuring technique – the depiction of physical detail – operates.
