  • HBO: Brand Management and Subscriber Aggregation: 1972-2007
    1 HBO: Brand Management and Subscriber Aggregation: 1972-2007 Submitted by Gareth Andrew James to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English, January 2011. 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. ........................................ 2 Abstract The thesis offers a revised institutional history of US cable network Home Box Office that expands on its under-examined identity as a monthly subscriber service from 1972 to 1994. This is used to better explain extensive discussions of HBO‟s rebranding from 1995 to 2007 around high-quality original content and experimentation with new media platforms. The first half of the thesis particularly expands on HBO‟s origins and early identity as part of publisher Time Inc. from 1972 to 1988, before examining how this affected the network‟s programming strategies as part of global conglomerate Time Warner from 1989 to 1994. Within this, evidence of ongoing processes for aggregating subscribers, or packaging multiple entertainment attractions around stable production cycles, are identified as defining HBO‟s promotion of general monthly value over rivals. Arguing that these specific exhibition and production strategies are glossed over in existing HBO scholarship as a result of an over-valuing of post-1995 examples of „quality‟ television, their ongoing importance to the network‟s contemporary management of its brand across media platforms is mapped over distinctions from rivals to 2007.

  • Deadwood, Un Western Post 11-S Ignacio FERNÁNDEZ DE MATA (Universidad De Burgos, España)
    Oceánide 9 2017 Fecha de recepción: 30 enero 2017 Fecha de aceptación: 14 febrero 2017 Fecha de publicación: 27 abril 2017 URL:http://oceanide.netne.net/articulos/art9-1.pdf Oceánide número 9, ISSN 1989-6328 La atrayente degradación del mito nacional: Deadwood, un western post 11-S Ignacio FERNÁNDEZ DE MATA (Universidad de Burgos, España) RESUMEN: Producida y emitida entre 2004 y 2006, la serie Deadwood, de HBO, alcanzó ribetes míticos y generó irredentos adeptos pendientes de una conclusión definitiva tras el cierre en falso de sus tres temporadas. Quizás la principal razón de su éxito —más allá de las impecables actuaciones de sus villanos— radica en su brutal actualización de uno de los mitos principales de la identidad norteamericana: el salvaje oeste y su mundo de pioneros rebosantes de hipermasculinidad y providencialismo cristiano. Con un sentido dramático muy realista, la serie presenta los conflictos de una comunidad de frontera en la que la ley que se impone es la darwiniana supervivencia del más fuerte —o el más listo—. La cosmovisión nada autocomplaciente de la serie y el cinismo y debilidad moral de casi todos sus personajes resuena con la sociedad post 11-S del espectador, sobrecogida por la fragilidad que ha descubierto en sí misma. Este artículo se centra en el análisis de las relaciones y construcciones identitarias —en sus distintos niveles y roles—, de esta sociedad de frontera, asentada sobre el conflicto, la desigualdad y la explotación más descarnada, en donde no hay lugar para la consabida “inocencia americana” (Fredericks & Bacevich, 2014: n.pag.), y donde la coincidencia de los intereses personales parece ser el pilar vertebrador de la comunidad.

  • ARE THERE ANY GOOD BOOKS on CIVIL LIBERTIES?
    ARE THERE ANY GOOD BOOKS on CIVIL LIBERTIES? A Reader’s Guide * By Sam Walker THE PURPOSE OF THIS GUIDE Civil liberties is an important, fascinating and extremely complex subject. There are many, many books and articles on each and every topic: free speech, lesbian and gay rights, the war on terror, and so on. The abundance of material poses a serious problem for the person who is just learning about civil liberties, or who wants to read something on a topic where he or she has no background. Where to begin? This Guide is designed to provide an introduction to the best books on civil liberties issues. For each issue it begins by identifying a “Best First Book.” For each book there is a short discussion of how it approaches the topic and why it is such a good book. The books have been selected because they are well-written and will be of interest to the reader with no background on the topic. The Guide then suggests one or more other books for “Further Reading” and for readers interested in “Digging Deeper.” Most of these are longer more scholarly books. Let’s say you are interested in the Scopes Monkey trial. The Guide recommends Ray Ginger’s Six Days or Forever as the Best First Book and then Edward Larson’s longer more analytical books as Further Reading. To supplement the books, the Guide includes a “Film Fun” section recommending movies or video documentaries on the topic. For the Scopes case it recommends the Hollywood film Inherit the Wind, with a discussion of the ways it presents both a very accurate picture of parts of the trial and distorts the history of the case.
