  • The Cultural Impact of Science in the Early Twentieth Century
    In the early decades of the twentieth century, engagement with science was commonly used as an emblem of modernity. This phenomenon is now attracting increasing attention in different historical specialties. Being Modern builds on this recent scholarly interest to explore engagement with science across culture from the end of the nineteenth century to approximately 1940. Addressing the breadth of cultural forms in Britain and the western world from the architecture of Le Corbusier to working class British science fiction, Being Modern paints a rich picture. Seventeen distinguished contributors from a range of fields including the cultural study of science and technology, art and architecture, English The Cultural Impact of culture and literature examine the issues involved. The book will be a valuable resource for students, and a spur to scholars to further examination of culture as an Science in the Early interconnected web of which science is a critical part, and to supersede such tired formulations as ‘Science and culture’.

  • Freaks and Masculinity: Sideshow Performers in German and American Cinema
    FREAKS AND MASCULINITY: SIDESHOW PERFORMERS IN GERMAN AND AMERICAN CINEMA Alexandra McCollum A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS DECEMBER 2013 Committee: Dr. Geoffrey Howes, Co-advisor Dr. Edgar Landgraf, Co-advisor ii ABSTRACT Dr. Geoffrey Howes, Co-advisor Dr. Edgar Landgraf, Co-advisor This project examines the portrayals of male sideshow performers in German and American cinema and literature. Specifically it investigates the manner in which the social expectations of the masculine social role are altered by the perceived physical and mental otherness in the figure of the freak. The main freak performers discussed here are the somnambulist Cesare from Das Cabinet des Dr. Caligari, Hans the dwarf from Freaks, Stan Carlisle from Nightmare Alley, who eventually becomes a geek with a travelling carnival, and Oskar Matzerath, the hunchbacked dwarf who is the protagonist of Die Blechtrommel. The examination of the male freak characters focuses upon three major areas which these works have in common: the portrayal of the freak as an unreliable narrator or signifying the presence of unreliable narration; the problematic interactions between the male freak and female characters, including romantic interests, and various manifestations of the male freak’s denial of responsibility. iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank my advisors, Dr. Geoffrey Howes and Dr. Edgar Landgraf, as well as the members of Dr. Landgraf’s Fall 2012 thesis workshop course, for their contributions to and assistance with this work. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS Page INTRODUCTION ................................................................................................................. 1 The History of the Freak ...........................................................................................
