Friedan, author of The Feminine Mystique and “the mother of the modern womenʼs movement,” argues that a constitutional amendment guaranteeing men and women equal treatment under the law would put a stop to discriminatory legislation that left divorced women without alimony or child support. On the other side, Schlafly, an Illinois mother of six who has marshalled an army of conservative housewives into an unlikely political force to fight the ERA, declares American women “the luckiest class of people on earth.” Then Schlafly goes for the jugular. “You simply cannot legislate universal sympathy for the middle-aged woman,” she purrs, knowing that Friedan had been through a bitter divorce. “You, Mrs. Friedan, are the unhappiest women I have ever met.” “You are a traitor to your sex, an Aunt Tom,” fumes Friedan, taking the bait. “And you are a witch.

  • SIGHTS of RACIAL VIOLENCE: New Media Technologies and Acts of Watching, Memory, and Legitimation
    SIGHTS OF RACIAL VIOLENCE: New Media Technologies and Acts of Watching, Memory, and Legitimation by Wendy Sung A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (American Culture) in the University of Michigan 2016 Doctoral Committee: Professor Lisa A. Nakamura, Chair Associate Professor Colin Gunckel Professor Yeidy M. Rivero Associate Professor Sarita E. See, University of California, Riverside DEDICATION For my mother and my grandmother— for us. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Temporality has been crucial for this project in many ways: the interplay of memory and image, the tenuous writing of history and its inevitable rewriting, but also in the difficulties of thinking deeply about a subject that inspires rage, fatigue, and hopelessness. These feelings delayed the completion of the project in unforeseen ways. If the project had been completed in the ideal time allotted by initial funding possibilities, it would look very different and would be far less rich. Thus, I want to acknowledge the many non-starts, refusals, and reluctancies that inevitably were overcome by the immediacy of the project and many Internet-deprived hours of coffee shop work. This was made possible by the generous support of the American Culture department, without which I might never have been able to see the Black Lives Matter movement make a constitutive mark on this dissertation. It goes without saying but still must be said that I am eternally indebted to my committee. Colin, thank you for being a crucial part of bringing Ann Arbor to our favorite city and for offering many invaluable insights that have made this dissertation better.

Recording the domestic dramas and business anxieties of family living the bourgeois life in a pleasant New Jersey suburb, The Sopranos is a saga of middle-class life in America at the turn of the century. Chronicled in twenty-six hour-long episodes, the first two seasons from the series will be shown in two four-day sequences at The Museum of Modern Art, from February 3-13 at the Roy and Niuta Titus Theatre 1. "The Sopranos is a cynical yet deeply felt look at this particular family man," remarks Laurence Kardish, Senior Curator, Department of Film and Video, who organized the program. "David Chase and his team have created a series distinguished by its bone-dry humor and understated, quirky, and stinging perspective - not usually seen on television." Renowned for his savvy profiles of power players in the media, Ken Auletta will join David Chase for a discussion of The Sopranos at The Museum on February 12. The Department of Film and Video gratefully acknowledges HBO for making the series available for public viewing.

  • It's a Mad Mad Men's World
    Lunds universitet Viktor Svanström Språk- och Litteraturcentrum FIVK01 Filmvetenskap Handledare: Erik Hedling 2020-01-15 It’s a mad mad men’s world En analys av HBO-serien Mad Men utifrån ett genusperspektiv med fokus på maskulinitet Abstract: I uppsatsen genomförs en djupanalys av ett flertal avsnitt från den amerikanska tv-serien Mad Men utifrån huvudsakligen två teoretiska koncept gällande studiet av maskulinitet. Dessa inkluderar bland andra Joseph A. Vandello och Jennifer K. Bosson et als studier gällande en så kallad ”osäker maskulinitet” i den vetenskapliga artikeln Precarious Manhood. Teorin gällande hegemonisk maskulinitet kommer att användas som basis för min analys, där R.W. Connell och respektive verk som Masculinities och Hegemonic masculinity: Rethinking the Concept kommer att användas som mina primära källor gällande konceptet av hegemonisk maskulinitet och diskussionen därav. Detta i syfte för att komma underfund med hur maskulinitet porträtteras i Mad Men, dess möjliga konsekvenser och reflektera kring maskulinitet i förhållande till det västerländska samhället, mer precist USA och Sverige, och det nuvarande 2000-talet. Nyckelord: Mad Men, maskulinitet, manlighet, könsroller, psykisk ohälsa Abstract: This essay will delve into a deep analysis regarding multiple episodes of the American tv-series Mad Men primarily from the perspective of two theoretical concepts regarding the study of masculinity. These include, for example, studies regarding the concept of “precarious manhood” by Joseph A. Vandello and Jennifer K. Bosson et al in the scientific article Precarious Manhood. The concept regarding hegemonic masculinity will be used for the basis of my analysis as well, with R.W. Connell and respective works such as Masculinities and Hegemonic masculinity: Rethinking the Concept will serve as my primary sources regarding the concept of hegemonic masculinity and the discussion there of.
