Schmidt College of Arts and Letters In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Florida Atlantic University Boca Raton, FL August 2016 Copyright 2016 by Rachel Hartnett ii Acknowledgements Foremost, I wish to express my heartfelt gratitude to my advisor Dr. Elizabeth Swanstrom for her motivation, support, and knowledge. Besides encouraging me to pursue graduate school, she has been a pillar of support both intellectually and emotionally throughout all of my studies. I could never fully express my appreciation, but I owe her my eternal gratitude and couldn’t have asked for a better advisor and mentor. I also would like to thank the rest of my thesis committee: Dr. Eric Berlatsky and Dr. Carol McGuirk, for their inspiration, insightful comments, and willingness to edit my work. I also thank all of my fellow English graduate students at FAU, but in particular: Jenn Murray and Advitiya Sachdev, for the motivating discussions, the all-nighters before paper deadlines, and all the fun we have had in these few years. I’m also sincerely grateful for my long-time personal friends, Courtney McArthur and Phyllis Klarmann, who put up with my rants, listened to sections of my thesis over and over again, and helped me survive through the entire process. Their emotional support and mental care helped me stay focused on my graduate study despite numerous setbacks. Last but not the least, I would like to express my heart-felt gratitude to my sisters, Kelly and Jamie, and my mother.

  • Walt Disney and American Cultural Identity
    Where Dreams Come True – Walt Disney and American Cultural Identity Room and time: Seminar Room (Attemsgasse 25, Top Floor), Wednesday, 3:15 - 4:45 p.m. First session: October 11, 2017 ˑ Course number: 512.313 Lecturer: Univ.-Prof. Dr. Stefan Brandt ˑ Office hours: Thursdays, 4-6 p.m. ˑ Email: stefan.brandt@uni- graz.at Description: The name ‘Disney’ is commonly employed to identify the ‘shallow’ and ‘popular’ aspects of the American way of life. It stands for an idealistic – perhaps even escapist – approach to culture that accentuates traditional values and embellishes the romantic dimensions of human (and oftentimes animal) relationships. Since the 1990s, the term ‘Disneyfication’ has been used by scholars to describe the transformation of society into a giant spectacle, consisting of theme parks and superficial entertainment. The spectrum of Disney films (and productions associated with or financed by Disney) is much wider than many movie-goers suspect; it includes animated cartoons (e.g., Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, 1937; Fantasia, 1940; Mulan, 1998; Ratatouille, 2007; Up, 2009; Frozen, 2013; and Inside Out, 2015), sci-fi flicks (Tron, 1982), musicals (Mary Poppins, 1964), as well as documentaries (The Living Desert, 1951) and even avant-garde films (The Straight Story, 1999). While looking at some crucial Disney productions, we will also examine archetypal characters such as Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck with regard to their development on screen/television, discuss crucial topics in Disney movies (e.g., race, class, gender, and nation) as well as scrutinize the phenomenon of ‘Disneyland.’ Primary Texts (Chronological order) Steamboat Willie.

  • Orientalism in G.R.R Martin's a Song of Ice and Fire Deanery's the White
    International Journal of English Literature and Social Sciences, 5(3) May-Jun 2020 |Available online: https://ijels.com/ Orientalism in G.R.R Martin’s a Song of Ice and Fire Deanery’s the White Savior Ghita Mesbah Department of English language and literature “Istanbul Aydin University “ ( Istanbul, turkey) Abstract— Identities, cultural differences, feminism, women in power, racism and so on have always been a controversial concept in most contemporary works. Starting with The Arabian Nights, modern fantasy has lately followed the same pattern of depicting the Oriental "Other". The cultural differences between the East and the West have been theorized by many scholars and critics in numerous works of literary modern studies, with reference to Edward Said’s book,, Orientalism. Said debates that Orientalism is the collateral damage of colonialism, by dominating the East economically, politically and culturally. This collateral damage still exists nowadays; where the patterns of superiority between the West and the East are to be considered. As it is some kind of everlasting unconscious domination, there is no way to dispose of its effects. The West plays the savior's role for the colonized communities; as they are considered helpless and waiting for the support of the West, while facing racial prejudice and religious discrimination The reasons why I have chosen this topic are the exotic representation of the characters' traits and the political and social structures in the series. This is compelling because the world of A Song of Ice and Fire is a secondary one, where reality should be less featured. I argue that this subgenre does not belong to the world of enchantment and magic.
