The Queer" Third Species": Tragicomedy in Contemporary
The Queer “Third Species”: Tragicomedy in Contemporary LGBTQ American Literature and Television A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department English and Comparative Literature of the College of Arts and Sciences by Lindsey Kurz, B.A., M.A. March 2018 Committee Chair: Dr. Beth Ash Committee Members: Dr. Lisa Hogeland, Dr. Deborah Meem Abstract This dissertation focuses on the recent popularity of the tragicomedy as a genre for representing queer lives in late-twentieth and twenty-first century America. I argue that the tragicomedy allows for a nuanced portrayal of queer identity because it recognizes the systemic and personal “tragedies” faced by LGBTQ people (discrimination, inadequate legal protection, familial exile, the AIDS epidemic, et cetera), but also acknowledges that even in struggle, in real life and in art, there is humor and comedy. I contend that the contemporary tragicomedy works to depart from the dominant late-nineteenth and twentieth-century trope of queer people as either tragic figures (sick, suicidal, self-loathing) or comedic relief characters by showing complex characters that experience both tragedy and comedy and are themselves both serious and humorous. Building off Verna A. Foster’s 2004 book The Name and Nature of Tragicomedy, I argue that contemporary examples of the tragicomedy share generic characteristics with tragicomedies from previous eras (most notably the Renaissance and modern period), but have also evolved in important ways to work for queer authors. The contemporary tragicomedy, as used by queer authors, mixes comedy and tragedy throughout the text but ultimately ends in “comedy” (meaning the characters survive the tragedies in the text and are optimistic for the future).

IRONIC FEMINISM: RHETORICAL CRITIQUE IN SATIRICAL NEWS A Dissertation Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Rhetorics, Communication, and Information Design by Kathy Elrick December 2016 Accepted by Dr. David Blakesley, Committee Chair Dr. Jeff Love Dr. Brandon Turner Dr. Victor J. Vitanza ABSTRACT Ironic Feminism: Rhetorical Critique in Satirical News aims to offer another perspective and style toward feminist theories of public discourse through satire. This study develops a model of ironist feminism to approach limitations of hegemonic language for women and minorities in U.S. public discourse. The model is built upon irony as a mode of perspective, and as a function in language, to ferret out and address political norms in dominant language. In comedy and satire, irony subverts dominant language for a laugh; concepts of irony and its relation to comedy situate the study’s focus on rhetorical contributions in joke telling. How are jokes crafted? Who crafts them? What is the motivation behind crafting them? To expand upon these questions, the study analyzes examples of a select group of popular U.S.

Review of Zazie Dans Le Metro

More information about this work at: https://academicworks.cuny.edu/gc_pubs/116 Discover additional works at: https://academicworks.cuny.edu This work is made publicly available by the City University of New York (CUNY). Contact: [email protected] Zazie dans le Métro (Blu-ray) (Criterion, 6.28.2011) Of Louis Malle’s early films <em>Zazie dans le Métro</em> is the most emblematic of the New Wave and arguably his most influential film. The director’s third film, released in 1960, constantly calls attention to its technique, even having a character ask if it is the New Wave. Based upon Raymond Queneau’s 1959 novel, the veteran surrealist’s first commercial success, <em>Zazie dans le Métro</em> presents a visit to Paris by ten-year-old Zazie (Catherine Demongeot), who stays with her uncle Gabriel (Philippe Noiret), a female impersonator whose act, thankfully, is never shown, while her mother (Odette Piquet) cavorts with her latest boyfriend. Zazie is opinionated and foul- mouthed, qualities which reportedly led angry French parents, expecting to see a children’s film, to drag their tykes from theaters. Zazie causes chaos ranging from a massive traffic jam to a lengthy slapstick fight in a restaurant. Malle’s style matches the girl’s frenetic energy and anarchic spirit: constant camera movement, mixing slow, normal, and sped-up motion in a single scene, and breathtaking shots of an ascent to the top of the Eiffel Tower.

From China with a Laugh: a Perusal of Chinese Comedy Films
From China with a Laugh: A Perusal of Chinese Comedy Films Shaoyi Sun Laughter has always been a rarity in Chinese official culture. The dead serious Confucians were too engaged with state affairs and everyday mannerism to enjoy a laugh. Contemporary Party officials are oftentimes too self-important to realize they could easily become a target of ridicule. Some thirty years ago, the legendary Chinese literary critic C. T. Hsia (1921-) observed that, despite the fact that modern Chinese life “constitutes a source of ‘unconscious’ humor to a good-tempered onlooker, foreign or Chinese”; and despite the allegation that “China is a rich land of humor, not because the people have adopted the humorous attitude but rather because they can be objects of humorous contemplation,” modern Chinese writers, however, “stopped at the sketch or essay and did not create a sustained humorous vision of modern Chinese life.”1 Having said that, Chinese laughter/humor is by no means in short supply. While a Taoist hedonist may find joy and laughter in the passing of his beloved wife, a modern-day cross talker (typically delivered in the Beijing dialect, crosstalk or xiangsheng is a traditional comedic performance of China that usually involves two talkers in a rapid dialogue, rich in social and political satire) has no problem in finding a willing ear and a knowing laugh when he cracks a joke at the government official, the pot-bellied businessman, or the self-proclaimed public intellectual. Laughter and humor, therefore, triumph in popular imagination, unorthodox writings, folk literature, and other mass entertainment forms.
