Copyright 2013 Shawn Patrick Gilmore THE INVENTION OF THE GRAPHIC NOVEL: UNDERGROUND COMIX AND CORPORATE AESTHETICS BY SHAWN PATRICK GILMORE DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2013 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Michael Rothberg, Chair Professor Cary Nelson Associate Professor James Hansen Associate Professor Stephanie Foote ii Abstract This dissertation explores what I term the invention of the graphic novel, or more specifically, the process by which stories told in comics (or graphic narratives) form became longer, more complex, concerned with deeper themes and symbolism, and formally more coherent, ultimately requiring a new publication format, which came to be known as the graphic novel. This format was invented in fits and starts throughout the twentieth century, and I argue throughout this dissertation that only by examining the nuances of the publishing history of twentieth-century comics can we fully understand the process by which the graphic novel emerged. In particular, I show that previous studies of the history of comics tend to focus on one of two broad genealogies: 1) corporate, commercially-oriented, typically superhero-focused comic books, produced by teams of artists; 2) individually-produced, counter-cultural, typically autobiographical underground comix and their subsequent progeny. In this dissertation, I bring these two genealogies together, demonstrating that we can only truly understand the evolution of comics toward the graphic novel format by considering the movement of artists between these two camps and the works that they produced along the way. -

Native Americans in Popular Culture: a Proposal
THE WAY WE NEVER WERE: NATIVE AMERICANS IN POPULAR CULTURE: A PROPOSAL FOR A VIRTUAL REALITY BASED EXHIBIT By JON C. KETCHEM Bachelor of Secondary Education - Social Studies Oklahoma State University Stillwater, Oklahoma 2004 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS December, 2017. THE WAY WE NEVER WERE: NATIVE AMERICANS IN POPULAR CULTURE: A PROPOSAL FOR A VIRTUAL REALITY BASED EXHIBIT Thesis Approved: Dr. Bill Bryans Thesis Adviser Dr. Laura Arata Dr. Doug Miller ii Acknowledgements I dedicate this thesis to the one person without whom I would not be able to pursue my dreams and goals. For twenty-five years, through every twist and turn of a constantly changing life, she has supported, nurtured, loved, and encouraged me with an abundance of love and the occasional metaphoric kick in the pants. Everything I have been successful at in the last quarter century of my life was only possible because of you. This one is for my Chicago-Hawaiian Rose, Anette Ketchem. I love you. I would also like to thank a few others for invaluable assistance along the way. To the faculty of the History Department and the College of Education at Oklahoma State University, thank you for helping me expand my knowledge base and professional skills. To Lu Ireton, Rodney Stewart, Robert Wilds, Tinia Petties, James Smallwood, Bill Steinbrink, and Patricia Nowlin, thank you for showing me by example the right way to teach. To the Power Triplets, Cara Eubanks, Sarah Barton, and Emma Fritz, your friendship and ebullient humor kept me sane through some truly stressful times as we pursued our MA degrees. -
PUNKS! TOPICALITY and the 1950S GANGSTER BIO-PIC CYCLE
cHAPTER 6 PUnKs! TOPIcALItY AnD tHe 1950s gANGSTER BIo-PIc cYcLe ------------------------------- PeteR stAnfield “This is a re-creation of an era. An era of jazz Jalopies Prohibition And Trigger-Happy Punks.” — Baby Face Nelson this essay examines a distinctive and coherent cycle of films, pro- duced in the late 1950s and early 1960s, which exploited the notoriety of Prohibition-era gangsters such as Baby Face Nelson, Al Capone, Bonnie Parker, Ma Barker, Mad Dog Coll, Pretty Boy Floyd, Machine Gun Kelly, John Dillinger, and Legs Diamond. Despite the historical specificity of the gangsters portrayed in these “bio-pics,” the films each display a marked interest in relating their exploits to contemporary topical con- cerns. Not the least of these was a desire to exploit headline-grabbing, sensational stories of delinquent youth in the 1950s and to link these to equally sensational stories of punk hoodlums from 1920s and 1930s. In the following pages, some of the crossovers and overlaps between cycles of juvenile delinquency films and gangster bio-pics will be critically eval- uated. At the centre of analysis is the manner in which many of the films in the 1950s bio-pic gangster cycle present only a passing interest in pe- riod verisimilitude; producing a display of complex alignments between the historical and the contemporary. 185 peter stanfield DeLInQUENTS, gANGSTERs, AnD PUnKs In the 1950s, the representation of gangsters and of juvenile delinquents shared a common concern with explaining deviancy in terms of a rudi- mentary psychology, -
Hollywood: the Shock of Freedom in Films -- Printout -- TIME
Back to Article Click to Print Friday, Dec. 08, 1967 Hollywood: The Shock of Freedom in Films (See Cover) Two girls embrace, then enjoy a long, lingering kiss that ends only ' when a male intruder appears. A vulpine criminal in a sumptuous penthouse pulls aside a window curtain to look down at the street. When he releases the curtain, he is abruptly in another apartment. He crosses the thickly carpeted living room to peer into a bedroom; when he turns back, the living room is empty and bare- floored. In the midst of an uproariously funny bank robbery, a country-boy hoodlum fires his pistol; the tone of the scene shifts in a split second from humor to horror as the bloodied victim dies. At first viewing, these scenes would appear to be photomontages from an underground-film festival. But The Fox, based on a D. H. Lawrence story with a lesbian theme, is soon to be released nationally, starring Sandy Dennis. Point Blank, with Lee Marvin, is in its plot an old-fashioned shoot-em-down but in its technique a catalogue of the latest razzle-dazzle cinematography. Bonnie and Clyde is not only the sleeper of the decade but also, to a growing consensus of audiences and critics, the best movie of the year. Differing widely in subject and style, the films have several things in common. They are not what U.S. movies used to be like. They enjoy a heady new freedom from formula, convention and censorship. And they are all from Hollywood. Poetry & Rhythm. Hollywood was once described as the only asylum run by its inmates.
