  • Zfwtvol. 9 No. 3 (2017) 269-288
    ZfWT Vol. 9 No. 3 (2017) 269-288 FEMINIST READING OF GOTHIC SUBCULTURE: EMPOWERMENT, LIBERATION, REAPPROPRIATION Mikhail PUSHKIN∗ Abstract: Shifting in and out of public eye ever since its original appearance in the 1980ies, Gothic subculture, music and aesthetics in their impressive variety have become a prominent established element in global media, art and culture. However, understanding of their relation to female gender and expression of femininity remains ambiguous, strongly influenced by stereotypes. Current research critically analyses various distinct types of Gothic subculture from feminist angle, and positively identifies its environment as female-friendly and empowering despite and even with the help of its strongly sexualized aesthetics. Although visually geared towards the male gaze, Gothic subcultural environment enables women to harness, rather than repress the power of attraction generated by such aesthetics. Key words: Subculture, Feminism, Gothic. INTRODUCTION Without a doubt, Gothic subculture is a much-tattered subject, being at the centre of both popular mass media with its gossip, consumerism and commercialization, as well as academia with diverse papers debasing, pigeonholing and even defending the subculture. Furthermore, even within the defined, feminist, angle, a thorough analysis of Gothic subculture would require a volume of doctoral dissertation to give the topic justice. This leaves one in a position of either summarizing and reiterating earlier research (a useful endeavour, however, bringing no fresh insight), or striving for a kind of fresh look made possible by the ever-changing eclectic ambivalent nature of the subculture. Current research takes the middle ground approach: touching upon earlier research only where relevant, providing a very general, yet necessary outlook on the contemporary Gothic subculture in its diversity, so as to elucidate its more relevant elements whilst focusing on the ways in which it empowers women.

  • The Commodification of Whitby Goth Weekend and the Loss of a Subculture
    View metadata, citation and similarbrought COREpapers to youat core.ac.ukby provided by Leeds Beckett Repository The Strange and Spooky Battle over Bats and Black Dresses: The Commodification of Whitby Goth Weekend and the Loss of a Subculture Professor Karl Spracklen (Leeds Metropolitan University, UK) and Beverley Spracklen (Independent Scholar) Lead Author Contact Details: Professor Karl Spracklen Carnegie Faculty Leeds Metropolitan University Cavendish Hall Headingley Campus Leeds LS6 3QU 44 (0)113 812 3608 [email protected] Abstract From counter culture to subculture to the ubiquity of every black-clad wannabe vampire hanging around the centre of Western cities, Goth has transcended a musical style to become a part of everyday leisure and popular culture. The music’s cultural terrain has been extensively mapped in the first decade of this century. In this paper we examine the phenomenon of the Whitby Goth Weekend, a modern Goth music festival, which has contributed to (and has been altered by) the heritage tourism marketing of Whitby as the holiday resort of Dracula (the place where Bram Stoker imagined the Vampire Count arriving one dark and stormy night). We examine marketing literature and websites that sell Whitby as a spooky town, and suggest that this strategy has driven the success of the Goth festival. We explore the development of the festival and the politics of its ownership, and its increasing visibility as a mainstream tourist destination for those who want to dress up for the weekend. By interviewing Goths from the north of England, we suggest that the mainstreaming of the festival has led to it becoming less attractive to those more established, older Goths who see the subculture’s authenticity as being rooted in the post-punk era, and who believe Goth subculture should be something one lives full-time.

  • Uma Breve Introdução À Subcultura Cyberpunk. Estilo, Alteridade, Transformações E Hibridismo Na Cibercultura1
    Revista da Associação Nacional dos Programas de Pós-Graduação em Comunicação Uma breve introdução à subcultura cyberpunk. Estilo, alteridade, transformações e hibridismo na cibercultura1 Adriana Amaral2 Universidade Tuiuti do Paraná [email protected] Resumo: Esse paper tem como objetivo fazer uma breve apresentação e discussão a respeito dos conceitos de subcultura enquanto uma das forças constituintes do conceito de cyberpunk. Através de um resgate sociológico da influência de suas principais tendências juvenis desde o pós-guerra do século 20 até o início do século 21 apresenta-se uma das formações estéticas da cibercultura. Nesse contexto, escolhemos como objeto da hibridização das mesmas, o cyberpunk, analisado aqui como “estilo de vida”. Résumé: L'objectif principal de cet article est de commencer une brève discussion et présentation au sujet des concepts de subculture en tant qu'un des forces constitutives derrière le concept de Cyberpunk elle-même. Dans toute une histoire sociologique de l'influence de ses tendances plus importantes dans la jeunesse, du d'après-guerre au 20ème siècle à begginning du 21ème siècle, la subculture est une formacion très important de la base aesthetical de la cyberculture. Dans ce contexte, nous avons choisi le Cyberpunk comme exemple de hybridism entre elles pendant qu'il est analysé ici comme style de vie. Abstract: The main objective of this paper is to start a brief discussion and presentation about subculture concepts as one of the constitutive forces behind cyberpunk concept itself. Throughout a sociological history of the influence of its most important trends in youth, from the post-war in the 20th century to the begginning of 21st century, subculture is one of the aesthtical basis of cyberculture.

  • Gothic Substance
    Gothic Style(s), Gothic Substance Gothic Manchester Festival Conference Saturday 28th October 2017 No 70 Oxford Street Introduction After the great success of last year’s Gothic North conference, our attention turns this year to the topic of Gothic Style(s). At the start of the twenty first century, the Gothic is ubiquitous. Fiction and film, television and graphic novels have not only made the Gothic’s plots and protagonists their own, but have brought Gothic style(s) even more firmly into the mainstream. Victorian Gothic architecture looms large over modern cities such as Manchester, contemporary Goth fashion and music tirelessly reference the mode, and our streets and bars, clubs and homes have generated new Gothic styles of their own. But is there substance to the Gothic’s many styles? Does the Gothic continue to reveal the great unspoken truths of our world? Did it ever? Is the Gothic anything more than a commercial product that may be sold, as a recognisable style, to a new generation of consumers? Was it ever thus? What cultural functions do Gothic styles serve? And how have these evolved from the Enlightenment to the neoliberal present? This year’s conference will address such questions, offering a cornucopia of perspectives on the theme. We have papers that draw on political, theological and sociological theory, panels as diverse as Gothic Gaming and Gothic Subcultures and participants who range from undergraduate students to seasoned academics, writers and performers. So, welcome to Gothic Styles, the fifth annual conference of the Gothic Manchester Festival. Again, we think, a wonderfully Gothic time will be had by all.

  • Understanding Youth and Culture
    Module 4 ‐ Understanding Youth and Culture Subcultures: definitions Look at the list of some subcultures that are observed in youth culture around the world1. Punk The punk subculture is based around punk rock. It emerged from the larger rock music scene in the mid‐to‐late‐1970s in the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, Australia, and Japan. The punk movement has spread around the globe and developed into a number of different forms. Punk culture encompasses distinct styles of music, ideologies, fashion, visual art, dance, literature, and film. Punk also lays claim to a lifestyle and community. Biker Around the world, motorcycles have historically been associated with subcultures. Some of these subcultures have been loose‐knit social groups such as the cafe racers of 1950s Britain, and the Mods and Rockers of the 1960s. A few are believed to be criminal gangs. Social motorcyclist organisations are popular and are sometimes organised geographically, focus on individual makes, or even specific models. Many motorcycle organisations raise money for charities through organised events and rides. Some organisations hold large international motorcycle rallies in different parts of the world that are attended by many thousands of riders. Bōsōzoku (暴走族 "violent running gang") is a Japanese subculture associated with motorcycle clubs and gangs. They were first seen in the 1950s as the Japanese automobile industry expanded rapidly. The first bōsōzoku were known as kaminari‐zoku (雷族 "Lightning Tribes"). It is common to see bōsōzoku groups socializing in city centres and playing loud music characterized by their lifestyle, such as The Roosters, and the Street Sliders.
