Viola 2009 Marina R. Viola Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science December 2009 The thesis of Marina R. Viola was reviewed and approved* by the following: Lorraine Dowler Associate Professor of Geography and Women‘s Studies Thesis Advisor Melissa W. Wright Associate Professor of Geography and Women‘s Studies Karl Zimmerer Professor of Geography Head of the Department of Geography *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ABSTRACT Disney turns fantasy into reality. ―Imagineers‖ are Disney‘s team of dream makers responsible for creating the magic. Nearly one dozen international theme parks, a cruise ship line, shopping centers, hotels and ownership of the community Celebration, Florida attest to Imagineering‘s cultural influence and success. This vast and variant space along with widely recognized topographic neologisms such as ―Disneyscapes,‖ and ―Disneyfied,‖ illustrate the Company‘s ability to transform ordinary landscapes into fantasy-scapes. In 2001, Disney deviated from its traditional Imagineering practices and attempted to re-recreate reality. Disney‘s California Adventure park opened as a celebration of the Golden State and the Golden Dreams that brought countless individuals in search of opportunity. Using qualitative methods, this study textually analyses the stories conveyed throughout the park‘s artwork, architecture, landscape and iconography. This thesis reveals that the lives and ―dreams‖ of various California subcultures are represented in demeaning and stereotypical manners that reinforce the superiority and dominance of white males over California‘s landscape.
