    PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 AND 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized.

  • (Leviticus 10:6): on Mourning and Refraining from Mourning in the Bible
    1 “Do not bare your heads and do not rend your clothes” (Leviticus 10:6): On Mourning and Refraining from Mourning in the Bible Yael Shemesh, Bar Ilan University Many agree today that objective research devoid of a personal dimension is a chimera. As noted by Fewell (1987:77), the very choice of a research topic is influenced by subjective factors. Until October 2008, mourning in the Bible and the ways in which people deal with bereavement had never been one of my particular fields of interest and my various plans for scholarly research did not include that topic. Then, on October 4, 2008, the Sabbath of Penitence (the Sabbath before the Day of Atonement), my beloved father succumbed to cancer. When we returned home after the funeral, close family friends brought us the first meal that we mourners ate in our new status, in accordance with Jewish custom, as my mother, my three brothers, my father’s sisters, and I began “sitting shivah”—observing the week of mourning and receiving the comforters who visited my parent’s house. The shivah for my father’s death was abbreviated to only three full days, rather than the customary week, also in keeping with custom, because Yom Kippur, which fell only four days after my father’s death, truncated the initial period of mourning. Before my bereavement I had always imagined that sitting shivah and conversing with those who came to console me, when I was so deep in my grief, would be more than I could bear emotionally and thought that I would prefer for people to leave me alone, alone with my pain.

With almost every minute that passes of this profoundly sad, and at times chilling film, I found myself thinking that, in many respects, what I was watching was one of the most extreme case studies imaginable for the conceptual architecture we have developed to try and grapple with the potential for toxicity which a music career presents.

  • The Complete Stories
    The Complete Stories by Franz Kafka a.b.e-book v3.0 / Notes at the end Back Cover : "An important book, valuable in itself and absolutely fascinating. The stories are dreamlike, allegorical, symbolic, parabolic, grotesque, ritualistic, nasty, lucent, extremely personal, ghoulishly detached, exquisitely comic. numinous and prophetic." -- New York Times "The Complete Stories is an encyclopedia of our insecurities and our brave attempts to oppose them." -- Anatole Broyard Franz Kafka wrote continuously and furiously throughout his short and intensely lived life, but only allowed a fraction of his work to be published during his lifetime. Shortly before his death at the age of forty, he instructed Max Brod, his friend and literary executor, to burn all his remaining works of fiction. Fortunately, Brod disobeyed. Page 1 The Complete Stories brings together all of Kafka's stories, from the classic tales such as "The Metamorphosis," "In the Penal Colony" and "The Hunger Artist" to less-known, shorter pieces and fragments Brod released after Kafka's death; with the exception of his three novels, the whole of Kafka's narrative work is included in this volume. The remarkable depth and breadth of his brilliant and probing imagination become even more evident when these stories are seen as a whole. This edition also features a fascinating introduction by John Updike, a chronology of Kafka's life, and a selected bibliography of critical writings about Kafka.

Translating multicultural style in Maxine Hong Kingston’s The Woman Warrior A Pro Gradu Thesis in English by Carla-Rose Häkkinen Department of Languages 2006 HUMANISTINEN TIEDEKUNTA KIELTEN LAITOS Carla-Rose Häkkinen LOST IN TRANSLATION? Translating multicultural style in Maxine Hong Kingston’s The Woman Warrior Pro gradu –tutkielma Englannin kieli Syyskuu 2006 120 sivua + 1 liite Opinnäytetyön tarkoituksena on tutkia tyyliä ja monikulttuurisuutta kiinalaisamerikkalaisen Maxine Hong Kingstonin teoksen The Woman Warrior (1976) suomentamisessa. Teoksen toinen luku on käännetty analyysia varten, mutta teosta ja sen taustaa tarkastellaan myös kokonaisuutena. Tutkimuskysymykset ovat seuraavat: 1) Millainen on lähtötekstin tyyli? 2) Miten monikulttuurisuus ilmenee lähtötekstissä? ja 3) Miten tyyli ja monikulttuurisuus välittyvät kohdetekstiin? Tutkielman teoreettinen viitekehys koostuu lähinnä ns. ideologisesta sekä funktionaalisesta käännösteoriasta. Tutkielman analyysiosiossa käsitellään myös kielitieteellisiä kysymyksiä. Käännösanalyysin pääasiallisena metodina käytetään Christiane Nordin funktionaalista tekstianalyysimallia. Analyysin keskeisiä käsitteitä ovat tyyli, kulttuurispesifisyys, kotouttaminen, sekä kaksi eri vieraannuttamisen lajia (foreignization ja defamiliarization). Analyysi tarkastelee lähtötekstiä ja kohdetekstiä rinta rinnan, ja käännösratkaisuja perustellaan käännöksen skopoksen valossa. Analyysin tulokset osoittavat, että lähtötekstin tyylille ominaisia piirteitä ovat ilmaisun
