The trend began in 1964, when ABC produced the sitcom The Addams Family (1964-66), based on works of cartoonist Charles Addams, and CBS countered with its own The Munsters (CBS, 1964-66) –both satirical inversions of the American ideal sitcom family in which various monsters and freaks from Gothic literature and classic horror films form a family of misfits that somehow thrive in middle-class, suburban America.

This work is protected against unauthorized copying under Title 17, United States Code. ProQuest LLC 789 East Eisenhower Parkway P.O. Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 SUMMARY Early fan studies positioned fans as ‘textual poachers’ (Jenkins, 1992), suggesting that fans poach characters and materials from texts as an act of resistance towards commercial culture to form their own readings through fan cultural production such as fan fiction. As such, fans are often presented as a unified, communal group interacting within the context of fan communities that are considered alternative social communities with ‘no established hierarchy’ (Bacon-Smith, 1992, p. 41). However, Milly Williamson argued that fans do not all operate from a position of cultural marginality. Fans not only go on to collaborate with the media producers they allegedly poach from, they also “engage in elitist distinctions between themselves and other...fans” (Williamson, 2005, p.

  • Hybridity and Problematic of Identity in Gulf States
    European Journal of English Language and Literature Studies Vol.3, No.4, pp.71-91, July 2015 ___Published by European Centre for Research Training and Development UK (www.eajournals.org) HYBRIDITY AND PROBLEMATIC OF IDENTITY IN GULF STATES NARRATIVE Rashad Mohammed Moqbel Al Areqi Al Baha University, Faculty of Sciences and arts, Al Mandaq Head of English Department Kingdom of Saudi Arabia ABSTRACT: Many transformations occur in the daily lives of the peoples of the Arab Gulf. Undoubtedly, such changes have left very deep influence in the varied areas of lives. Writing Gulf Sates literature in general and narrative in particular is reshaped by the daily events and concerns. The daily social and political, cultural and race/sectarian prejudice issues become the core of the Gulf writers' concerns. In the Gulf communities, migrants come from around the world with their different cultures, languages, religions, but social conventions on the hope of finding their living. The immigrants become a part of the Gulf community and affect the culture and social conventions of the Gulf Communities, regardless of the Gulf people who travel abroad for study or tourism or searching for a better life and come back with new identity and new style of life. How do the writers express problematic of identity and the hybridity in such globalized world and cosmopolitan atmosphere? The article addresses transformations in the Gulf States identity and the rapid changes in social and political arena as portrayed by the Gulf writers in the area of narrative. The article focuses on two narratives by two Kuwaiti writers: Saud Al Sanousi's winning novel of International Prize of Arabic Fiction (IPAF), and the Kuwait State Award: The Bamboo Stalk, 2012, and Sada Al Da'as's Being Black, the winning novel of Kuwait State Award of Appreciation and Encouragement, 2010.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by University of East Anglia digital repository Sibling Connections: An Exploration of Adopted People’s Birth and Adoptive Sibling Relationships Across the Life-Span Heather Claire Ottaway Thesis submitted to the University of East Anglia For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy April 2012 This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that use of any information derived there from must be in accordance with current UK Copyright Law. In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution. Abstract This thesis presents a qualitative exploratory study of adopted people’s birth and adoptive sibling relationships across the life-span. Very little is known at present about the longitudinal experience and meaning of these relationships. This study therefore seeks to increase knowledge about how these relationships are developed, maintained and practiced across the life-span from the adopted person’s perspective. Semi- structured interviews were carried out with twenty adopted adults, all of whom had knowledge of at least one birth sibling. Ten participants also had adoptive siblings, who were unrelated and also adopted into the family, or were the birth children of their adoptive parents. Two participants grew up together with one birth sibling and apart from others. Almost three-quarters of the sample who had been reunited with at least one birth sibling had been in contact with them for over 6 years.
