  • Collecting Tolkieniana at the Marquette University Archives
    [Slide 1] Title—One Fandom to Rule Them All: Collecting Tolkieniana at the Marquette University Archives. [Slide 2] Marquette University here in Milwaukee has a student population of roughly 8,000 undergraduates and 3,000 graduate students. Our Department of Special Collections and University Archives stands on three pillars: University Records, rare books, and manuscript collections. All three come together to form our department. [Slide 3] Among our manuscript collections, arguably the most notable is the J. R. R. Tolkien Collection. At the heart of this collection are the manuscripts that Marquette purchased from Professor Tolkien in 1957, some of which came into Marquette’s possession around that time; others arrived much later, sent by Tolkien’s son and literary executor, Christopher. This remarkably comprehensive collection of manuscripts documents the creation of four of Tolkien’s imaginary works: in order of their publication, The Hobbit, Farmer Giles of Ham, The Lord of the Rings, and Mr. Bliss. A question cries out here for an answer: Why is this collection at Marquette University? [Slide 4] The 30-seconds sound bite answer is because of the vision of this man – William B. Ready, pictured here in front of the then brand new Memorial Library on Marquette’s campus. In 1956 Marquette hired Ready from Stanford to be its library director and to stock this new library with books and manuscripts. Ready identified Tolkien as somebody whose manuscripts he wanted. He asked Tolkien if he would consider selling them to Marquette. Tolkien agreed. The sale was made. That’s it in a nutshell.

  • The Formation of Temporary Communities in Anime Fandom: a Story of Bottom-Up Globalization ______
    THE FORMATION OF TEMPORARY COMMUNITIES IN ANIME FANDOM: A STORY OF BOTTOM-UP GLOBALIZATION ____________________________________ A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of California State University, Fullerton ____________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in Geography ____________________________________ By Cynthia R. Davis Thesis Committee Approval: Mark Drayse, Department of Geography & the Environment, Chair Jonathan Taylor, Department of Geography & the Environment Zia Salim, Department of Geography & the Environment Summer, 2017 ABSTRACT Japanese animation, commonly referred to as anime, has earned a strong foothold in the American entertainment industry over the last few decades. Anime is known by many to be a more mature option for animation fans since Western animation has typically been sanitized to be “kid-friendly.” This thesis explores how this came to be, by exploring the following questions: (1) What were the differences in the development and perception of the animation industries in Japan and the United States? (2) Why/how did people in the United States take such interest in anime? (3) What is the role of anime conventions within the anime fandom community, both historically and in the present? These questions were answered with a mix of historical research, mapping, and interviews that were conducted in 2015 at Anime Expo, North America’s largest anime convention. This thesis concludes that anime would not have succeeded as it has in the United States without the heavy involvement of domestic animation fans. Fans created networks, clubs, and conventions that allowed for the exchange of information on anime, before Japanese companies started to officially release anime titles for distribution in the United States.

  • Book Review: Only at Comic-Con: Hollywood, Fans, and the Limits of Exclusivity Hanna, Erin NEWARK: RUTGERS UNIVERSITY PRESS, 2020
    Media Industries 7.2 (2020) Book Review: Only at Comic-Con: Hollywood, Fans, and the Limits of Exclusivity Hanna, Erin NEWARK: RUTGERS UNIVERSITY PRESS, 2020. Tanya D. Zuk1 GEORGIA STATE UNIVERSITY tzuk1 [AT] gsu.edu Comic-Con International: San Diego, known colloquially as Comic-Con, is one of the largest and most influential fan conventions in the world. Comic-Con as an event and as a brand has impacted fandom, popular culture, and, more importantly, for Erin Hanna, the media industries in Hollywood. Since its inception, Comic-Con has been intertwined with the media industries: comic creators and industry professionals attended the very first conven- tion. Comic-Con has, however, expanded beyond comic books to include all popular media and has opened its doors to industry creatives, synergistic promotion, and audience testing, making Comic-Con a useful event for Hollywood’s buzz machine.2 Comic-Con, as both an exclusive event and a franchise, has made fan conventions widely popular (and lucrative) with both audiences and global pop- ular culture industries. In this book, Hanna explores how Hollywood studios and related industries foster the appeal of exclusivity as a means of promotion that exploits fan labor. Media Industries 7.2 (2020) In Only at Comic-Con, Erin Hanna uses a framework of exclusivity to dismantle the power structures embedded in fan conventions generally and Comic-Con specifically. According to Hanna, “exclusivity is not defined by presences at all, but by the power to produce absences.”3 Hanna outlines the power dynamics between media industry representatives and conven- tion organizers (and fans), between fans and convention staff, and between fans themselves.

  • A Fans' Notes, Frederick Exley Describes the Ritualized Viewing
    Contact Sport Robert Cavanagh Over the last twenty-five years, fantasy sports have become an increasingly prominent form of popular culture. During this same period, fan studies have also become an important strain of media and cultural studies. In what follows, I will consider the relationship between these two phenomena and demonstrate how each can help us rethink the other. In fantasy competitions sports fans assemble imaginary teams of professional athletes that may or may not play on the same “real-life” team and play these teams against others in imaginary leagues. Scoring is based on the statistically quantified real-life performances of an individual “owner’s” team of players. In fantasy sports, in other words, the competition is between fans. As I will argue, the competitive logic and culture of fantasy sports embody much of what fan studies has articulated about both the active, participatory nature of fandom and also the increased sensitivity of contemporary culture industries to it. But I will also show how fantasy participation and the incorporation of fantasy fandom by pre-existing forms of spectacle raise fundamental questions about our investment in worlds defined by their separation from reality, and that fan studies must also confront these questions. In order to articulate the relation between fantasy and participation that I want to explore, I will focus on a particular variety of fantasy sports—fantasy football—and a book that deals extensively with the connection between football and fantasy: Frederick Exley’s “fictional memoir” A Fans’ Notes. A Fan’s Notes was first published in 1968, one year after the first documented fantasy football league was founded.1 Exley’s representation of football fandom does not imagine the kind of participatory culture that would emerge around fantasy sports.
