Rau – [email protected] GoogleHangouts (scarletmail) pkr28 GroupMe (Skype) (add me via Campus Connect tab or link in Canvas) Short Description - This course explores the role of film in ethnographic representation and ethnographic representation in popular film. It looks at the relationship of anthropology to the construction of popular film and of popular film to the construction of culture Course Description – Since the advent of film in the late 19th century, the cutting-edge new discipline of anthropology provided exciting themes –from “cavemen” and “the missing link” to extra-terrestrials (who resemble Native Americans) that have been enormously popular with audiences ever since. The persistence of Hollywood staples such as mummies, cannibalistic natives, exotic demons, and zombies, also reflect the ever-changing history of anthropology from the turn-of- the century until present. These figures (and the ways they change over time) also reflect the political-economic context of colonialism, imperialism, scientific theories and discoveries, as well as debates on race and gender of the historical moments in which they emerged and are redeployed. In addition to reflecting social anxieties, imaging exotic other worlds has also been a liberatory space in which to dream of alternative futures for humanity (as is Anthropology, some would argue). Anthropologists, in addition to being characters in adventure and horror movies, are also humans from a specific cultural context. Malinowski, the father of modern field work, for example, read adventure novels in the field. Young Jane Goodall was a Tarzan fan. Sigmund Freud, who drew on Morgan’s theories and influenced subsequent anthropologists, had nightmares about all the pulp fiction he read. We will also consider how pop culture genres of different eras interacted with genres of ethnographic writing. In short, this course explores the role of film in ethnographic representation and ethnographic representation in popular film. It looks at the relationship of anthropology to the construction of popular film and of popular film to the construction of culture DEPARTMENT LEARNING GOALS http://anthro.rutgers.edu/undergrad-program/department-learning-goals CA1) Gain knowledge that will allow them to identify, explain, and historically contextualize the primary objectives, fundamental concepts, modes of analysis, and central questions in their major field and demonstrate proficiency in their use of this knowledge CA2) Demonstrate proficiency in the use of critical thinking skills CA3) Demonstrate proficiency using current methods in their major fields, including library research skills CA4) Express themselves knowledgably and proficiently in writing about central issues in their major field CA5) Express themselves knowledgably and proficiently in speaking about central issues in their major field COURSE SPECIFIC LEARNING OUTCOME GOALS 1) Explore the historical effects and circulation of anthropological and archaeological theory and research in popular culture and the effects of historical context (including popular culture) on the anthropological imagination [CA1] 2) Critically analyze the politics of representation of cultural, racial, ethnic, gender, and class difference [CA2] 3) Demonstrate an historical understanding of changes in anthropological theory [CA1] 4) Critically analyze the concepts of race and gender as social constructions with powerful effects, rather than biological fact [CA1,2] 5) Develop and demonstrate skills in critical theoretical analysis, conduct independent research, and communicate ideas effectively both orally and in writing.

Jupiter Jones stood still and listened. The afternoon was thick with fog. Fog muffled the noise of the traffic on the Pacific Coast Highway. It hung like a curtain between The Jones Salvage Yard and the houses across the street. It seemed to press in on Jupe. He felt cold and lonely, as if he were the only person in all the world. But someone had spoken, and now there were footsteps. Outside, just beyond the gates of the salvage yard, someone was walking. Then a man spoke, and two people appeared, moving like shadows in the grey light. The man was bent over, and as he walked his feet made slow, scuffling noises on the pavement. The woman was girlish and thin, with long, fair hair that hung straight about her face. “Here’s a bench,” she said, and she guided the man to a seat near the office. “You rest a minute. You should have let me drive. It was too much for you.” “Can I help?” Jupe moved closer to the pair. The man put a hand to his head and looked around in a dazed fashion. “We’re looking for . for . .” He caught at the young woman’s hand. “You do it,” he said. “Find out where we . where we . .” “Harbourview Lane,” said the young woman to Jupe. “We have to go to Harbour- view Lane.” “It’s down the highway and off Sunset,” said Jupe.

  • Language Under the Microscope: Science and Philology in English Fiction 1850-1914
    - 1 - Language under the Microscope: Science and Philology in English Fiction 1850-1914 Submitted by William Harrison Abberley to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English In September 2012 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. Signature: ………………………………………………………….. - 2 - Abstract This study explores how Anglophone fiction from the mid-Victorian period to the outbreak of the First World War acted as an imaginative testing-ground for theories of the evolution of language. Debates about the past development and the future of language ranged beyond the scope of empirical data and into speculative narrative. Fiction offered to realize such narratives in detail, building imaginative worlds out of different theories of language evolution. In the process, it also often tested these theories, exposing their contradictions. The lack of clear boundaries between nature and culture in language studies of the period enabled fictions of language evolution to explore questions to which contemporary researchers have returned. To what extent is communication instinctive or conventional? How do social and biological factors interact in the production of meaning? The study traces two opposing tendencies of thought on language evolution, naming them language ‗progressivism‘ and ‗vitalism‘. Progressivism imagined speakers evolving away from involuntary, instinctive vocalizations to extert rational control over their discourse with mechanical precision.

  • Meet the Flintstones a Critical Essay on the Perpetuation of the 'Caveman' Stereotype, from the Late 1800'S to Today
    Meet the Flintstones A critical essay on the perpetuation of the 'caveman' stereotype, from the late 1800's to today. Sarah Moyneur Master’s Thesis in Archaeology Spring of 2013 Supervisor: Kristina Jennbert Department of Archaeology and Ancient History Lund University 1 Abstract Images can convey a lot in a little space, and communicate in a way that words cannot. For this reason, studying visual communication is important in order to ensure that users are conveying the right message. This thesis aims to better understand paleolithic reconstruction, and the stereotypes that are associated with them with the help of the following theoretical perspectives: gender, visual perspective, agency, and critical theory. Images are taken from three different periods in order to track the progression: the late 1800's, the 1960's, and today. These images are analyzed to extract elements of the stereotype. These elements are discussed in association with their appropriate time periods and paradigms in order to grasp various aspects associated with perpetuation. We see that certain aspects of reconstructions have remained stagnate since the birth of the stereotype in the late 1800's, and that these aspects are the result of various socio-political factors as well as conscious and unconscious motives. In addition to researching the reasons behind stereotype perpetuation, it was necessary to conduct a survey to show how images affect those who are exposed to them. The survey shows that images affect both archaeologically and non-archaeologically trained students to varying degrees. KEYWORDS: Stereotype, Stone Age, Illustrations, Academic, Popular Culture, Perspectives, Socio- Politics, Late 1800's, 1960's, Modern.
