Chapel Hill 2008 Approved by: Laurie Maffly-Kipp Randall Styers Thomas Tweed ABSTRACT JILL PETERFESO: Giving Faithful Testimony: Theatrical Performance, Mormon Women’s Sexuality, and The Vagina Monologues (Under the direction of Thomas A. Tweed) This thesis rests at the intersection of women’s studies, performance studies, and Mormon studies. Using two case studies—a performance of Eve Ensler’s The Vagina Monologues at Utah Valley State College and a Sunstone magazine conference session known as The Mormon Vagina Monologues—this thesis explores how Mormon women have used the theatrical medium to explore their sexuality. By staging or scripting their sexual lives within a community of actors or playwrights, and for a public audience, these women give faithful testimony—not about their religious faith, but about their sexual selves. This public testimony has generated, but it also has enabled the women to find healing, foster empowerment, and reconstitute community. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter I.

  • Writer-Director Richard Dutcher, Unquestionably the Dominant Personality in the Past Decade of Mormon Cinema, on Location with A
    Writer-director Richard Dutcher, unquestionably the dominant personality in the past decade of Mormon cinema, on location with actors Jo-Sei Ikeda and Ignacio Serricchio for his film States of Grace (2005). Dutcher—who has worked as writer, actor, producer, director, and now editor—is credited with launching a new wave of Mormon film with his breakthrough production God’s Army in 2000, which not only set the stage for multiple theatrical releases of Mormon-themed pictures, but also sought to increase their realism and dramatic depth beyond the limited depic- tions of Mormons in Hollywood films or, conversely, institutional productions in the style of Judge Whitaker. © Main Street Movie Co. A History of Mormon Cinema: Fifth Wave V 127 The Fifth Wave: Cultural and Commercial Viability (2000–Present) The Fifth Wave of Mormon cinema is the current period, in which a culturally robust and commercially vibrant new art form is beginning to emerge. Its most obvious manifestation is in the stream of Mormon- themed theatrical feature films, produced independently of the Church, made by and for Latter-day Saints. Richard Dutcher’s much-celebrated God’s Army, released in March 2000, made him widely recognized as the father of this new movement in Mormon film, but his groundbreaking work actually marks a return to the past. The LDS filmmakers of the First Wave also sought to create 35mm films to be distributed through commer- cial theaters to a paying public. Mormon film has in many ways come full circle, with Latter-day Saints of the Fifth Wave attempting large theatrical productions at a time when anti-Mormon films are once again more vis- ible in the mainstream.

  • Michael Moore and Identity in Utah Valley
    Chris Lippard (University of Utah) M and M’s for Everyone: Michael Moore and Identity in Utah Valley Abstract : This paper places Michael Moore’s extraordinarily successful documentary, Fahrenheit 9/11 (2004) in the context of both contemporary U.S. documentaries and the popular mood post-9/11, examining how the notion of an American identity is being contested. I suggest places in Moore’s film which support and those that undermine a more progressive and productive sense of America. Moore’s work foregrounds his own identity and the second part of the paper examines how Steven Greenstreet’s This Divided State (2005) presents the controversy surrounding Moore’s visit to the conservative heartland of Orem, Utah. Although Greenstreet’s title refers most obviously to Utah, the film evidently uses the state to reference battles over identity at a national level. It shows how various artifacts and elements of an American identity are used by individuals to construct their own relationships to the state and nation. Using somewhat different strategies from Moore’s, This Divided State challenges its audience to question traditional conceptions of identity. M y M para todos: Michael Moore y la Identidad del Valle de UTA Este papel propone el documentario extraordinario de Michael Moore, Fahrenheit 9/11 (2004) entre documentarios contemporáneos de EEUU y el modo popular después de “9/11”, examinando la idea de identificación Americana esta disputada. He sugerido partes en la película de Moore que soportan y otras que disminuyan un sentido más progresivo y productivo de América. La producción de Moore presenta su identidad y la segunda parte del papel examina come Steven Greenstreet presenta la controversia hacia la visita de Moore en el centro conservativo de Orem, Utah, por su producción This Divided State (2005).

InsIde the health Care debate Our Faculty Weighs in, page 28 Letter from the Dean n the year since I became dean, I am often asked what Ihas surprised me most about Georgetown Law. My answer is that, while I knew from the outset the Law Center’s presence in Washington, D.C., is an impor- tant asset, I had not fully appreciated how much being in Washington contributes both to the academic work being done here and to the educational experience of our students. Washington is a magnet that draws faculty interested in questions of policy, government and, more broadly, the regulatory state. The city enriches research, facilitates an ongoing dialogue about funda- mental issues and gives faculty members an opportunity to help shape the most GEORGETOWN LAW important debates of our day.

  • The Cultural Politics of Youth, Health and Lifestyle in the Aftermath of the Childhood Obesity •Œepidemicâ•Š
    CHILDHOOD OBESITY AND THE CULTURAL POLITICS OF LIFESTYLE THE CULTURAL POLITICS OF YOUTH, HEALTH AND LIFESTYLE IN THE AFTERMATH OF THE CHILDHOOD OBESITY “EPIDEMIC” By SCOTT STONEMAN, B.A, M.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy McMaster University © Copyright by Scott Stoneman, October 2012 McMaster University DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (2012) Hamilton, Ontario (English and Cultural Studies) TITLE: The Cultural Politics of Youth, Health and Lifestyle in the Aftermath of the Childhood Obesity “Epidemic” AUTHOR: Scott Stoneman, B.A., M.A. (McMaster University) SUPERVISOR: Professor Susie O’Brien NUMBER OF PAGES: v, 183 ii ABSTRACT In this dissertation I argue that the currency of the childhood obesity “epidemic” as a health crisis is derived largely from processes of representation and reproduction through which fatness has been re-calibrated as something pathogenic. I develop the position that the “childhood obesity epidemic”—influenced as it is by neoliberal notions of what constitutes a healthy individual and a vital body politic—risks exacerbating, rather than mitigating, the vulnerability of children. The methodology of this project uses the example of lifestyle to illustrate how consensus about the presence of an “obesity epidemic” has been built, the concept of lifestyle being read as representative of how particular constellations of anxiety regulate what counts as true in the developing body of social knowledge concerning childhood obesity. I contend that the problem of lifestyle captures the complexities of the “childhood obesity epidemic” because children are presupposed, in obesity discourses, to be more vulnerable to the sweeping set of social trends brought under the rubric of the “obesity epidemic” than adults.

  • From Documentary to Allegory
    1 Confronting the Horrors of the Bush-Cheney Era From Documentary to Allegory It is hardly an exaggeration to claim that the administrations of George W. Bush and Dick Cheney have been the most rightwing, extremist, ultra- conservative, and contested in recent history.1 In retrospect, the 2000 elec- tion that pitted Bush against Al Gore was one of the most fateful in history and its outcome shocking and consequential. In particular, the presidential campaign of November 2000 displayed an astonishing conclusion, as on election night, it appeared that Al Gore was on his way to triumph as the big Eastern states of New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Florida were called for him. However, suddenly, Florida flipped over to Bush, who had swept the South and was accumulating enough electoral votes in the Middle West and West to be named the winner when Florida was called for Bush. Yet, in another reversal that a Hollywood drama writer would be hard pressed to imagine, Florida was deemed too close to call, and a recount was ordered, a process that would go on for 36 days and generate a media spectacle that would seriously divide the country (see Kellner 2001). Following a series of Florida court decisions that more recounts were necessary, the Bush team, led by family consigliore James Baker, fought to stop the recount and freeze a Bush lead by a few hundred votes. The US Supreme Court then jumped in and ruled by a slim 5 to 4 margin that the state-wide recount of Florida’s votes, ordered by the Florida Supreme Court, should COPYRIGHTEDstop and Bush should be declared MATERIAL the victor.
