Plot Blackadder Goes Forth is set in 1917 on the Western Front in the trenches of World War I. Captain Edmund Blackadder is a professional soldier in the British Army who, until the outbreak of the Great War, has enjoyed a relatively danger-free existence fighting natives who were usually "two feet tall and armed with dried grass". Finding himself trapped in the trenches with another "big push" planned, his concern is to avoid being sent over the top to certain death. The show thus chronicles Blackadder's attempts to escape the trenches through various schemes, most of which fail due to bad fortune, misunderstandings and the general incompetence of his comrades.

Flanagan B.A., College of William and Mary, 2006 M.A., North Carolina State University, 2009 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of The Kenneth P. Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Pittsburgh 2015 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH KENNETH P. DIETRICH SCHOOL OF ARTS AND SCIENCES This dissertation was presented by Kevin M. Flanagan It was defended on April 15, 2015 and approved by Colin MacCabe, Distinguished Professor, Department of English Adam Lowenstein, Associate Professor, Department of English David Pettersen, Assistant Professor, Department of French and Italian Dissertation Advisor: Lucy Fischer, Distinguished Professor, Department of English ii Copyright © by Kevin M. Flanagan 2015 iii THE BRITISH WAR FILM, 1939-1980: CULTURE, HISTORY, AND GENRE Kevin M. Flanagan, Ph.D. University of Pittsburgh, 2015 This dissertation argues that discussions of war representation that privilege the nationalistic, heroic, and redemptively sacrificial strand of storytelling that dominate popular memory in Britain ignore a whole counter-history of movies that view war as an occasion to critique through devices like humor, irony, and existential alienation. Instead of selling audiences on what Graham Dawson has called “the pleasure culture of war” (a nationally self-serving mode of talking about and profiting from war memory), many texts about war are motivated by other intellectual and ideological factors. Each chapter includes historical context and periodizing arguments about different moments in British cultural history, explores genre trends, and ends with a comparative analysis of representative examples.

  • Evidence from the Hollywood Studio Era F. Andrew Hanssen John E
    The Property Rights Theory of Vertical Relations: Evidence from the Hollywood Studio Era F. Andrew Hanssen John E. Walker Department of Economics Clemson University Clemson, SC 29634 phone: (864) 656-5474 e-mail: [email protected] Alexander Raskovich U.S. Department of Justice; [email protected] June 16, 2015 ABSTRACT: Empirical tests of the Grossman, Hart, and Moore property rights theory (PRT) generally link measures intended to capture the relative importance of non-contractible investment to predicted differences in ownership regimes. By contrast, in this paper we explore how an exogenous change in ownership regime affects a proxy for non-contractible investment, exploiting a unique dataset. As a result, we can test PRT from a different tack than that taken by earlier studies. During the famous Hollywood studio era of the 1930s and 1940s, actors worked for movie production companies under de facto lifetime contracts, receiving fixed salaries in return for granting studios control rights and residual claims associated with subsequent films made. Two exogenous shocks (in the form of court decisions) shifted those rights and claims to actors. We develop a model to analyze the impact of that change on investment in talent discovery. We find that actors under studio contract were cast in substantially more film roles (our proxy measure of non-contractible investment in talent discovery), ceteris paribus, as our model predicts. We find some evidence that actor own-investment was weaker during the studio era. We also discuss how contracts changed, and how talent agencies (representing actors) attempted to reconstitute the studio system in the 1950s and 1960s, until stopped by antitrust authorities.
