  • What Is the Meaning of All This? a Unit on Existential Thought in Literature
    Craig 1 What is The Meaning of All This? A Unit on Existential Thought in Literature By Kevin Craig Dr. Peter Smagorinsky LLED 7408 The University of Georgia Rationale Craig 2 All great deeds and all great thoughts have a ridiculous beginning. -Albert Camus No matter what one’s social, ethnic, or religious status may be, we must all agree that adolescence is one of the more confusing times in life. Between a newly developing sense of personal identity and the inevitable, indecipherable hormonal changes taking place, students of high school age undergo transformations unlike any others they will ever experience. Because they occur as students enter the beginnings of adulthood, these changes may well inform, if not dictate, the rest of students’ lives. It is incumbent on the teachers of adolescents to stimulate young brains and transmit useful material that students may later use, but it is imperative that we help guide students through a time in their lives when they are just discovering their identities. The goal of this unit is not to assign everyone a new, more mature identity; rather, it is to provide students with an appropriate framework through which they may begin forming their own identities and continue to do so long after they graduate. In Bob Fecho’s words, I aim to provide students with “ample opportunities for students to use writing to explore who they are becoming and how they relate to the larger culture around them” (2011). Existentialism is a philosophical movement with many sub-movements, but the main question it asks is “Who am I in relation to the universe?” On existentialism, Raymond C.

In the past, major technological change and major shifts in the way copyrightable works were used have rightly led to major changes in the law. The invention of the printing press prompted the first codification of copyright. The popularity of the player piano contributed to a reevaluation of how musical works should be protected.2 The dawn of the computer age led to an explicit expansion of copyrightable subject matter to include computer programs.3 These are but a few examples of past inflection points; the current one demands a similar level of change.

  • Abstract Humanities Jordan Iii, Augustus W. B.S. Florida
    ABSTRACT HUMANITIES JORDAN III, AUGUSTUS W. B.S. FLORIDA A&M UNIVERSITY, 1994 M.A. CLARK ATLANTA UNIVERSITY, 1998 THE IDEOLOGICAL AND NARRATIVE STRUCTURES OF HIP-HOP MUSIC: A STUDY OF SELECTED HIP-HOP ARTISTS Advisor: Dr. Viktor Osinubi Dissertation Dated May 2009 This study examined the discourse of selected Hip-Hop artists and the biographical aspects of the works. The study was based on the structuralist theory of Roland Barthes which claims that many times a performer’s life experiences with class struggle are directly reflected in his artistic works. Since rap music is a counter-culture invention which was started by minorities in the South Bronx borough ofNew York over dissatisfaction with their community, it is a cultural phenomenon that fits into the category of economic and political class struggle. The study recorded and interpreted the lyrics of New York artists Shawn Carter (Jay Z), Nasir Jones (Nas), and southern artists Clifford Harris II (T.I.) and Wesley Weston (Lii’ Flip). The artists were selected on the basis of geographical spread and diversity. Although Hip-Hop was again founded in New York City, it has now spread to other parts of the United States and worldwide. The study investigated the biography of the artists to illuminate their struggles with poverty, family dysfunction, aggression, and intimidation. 1 The artists were found to engage in lyrical battles; therefore, their competitive discourses were analyzed in specific Hip-Hop selections to investigate their claims of authorship, imitation, and authenticity, including their use of sexual discourse and artistic rivalry, to gain competitive advantage.

  • The Beautiful Struggle: an Analysis of Hip-Hop Icons, Archetypes and Aesthetics
    THE BEAUTIFUL STRUGGLE: AN ANALYSIS OF HIP-HOP ICONS, ARCHETYPES AND AESTHETICS ________________________________________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board ________________________________________________________________________ in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY ________________________________________________________________________ by William Edward Boone August, 2008 ii © William Edward Boone 2008 All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT The Beautiful Struggle: an Analysis of Hip-Hop Icons, Archetypes and Aesthetics William Edward Boone Doctor of Philosophy Temple University, 2008 Doctoral Advisory Committee Chair: Nathaniel Norment, Ph.D. Hip hop reached its thirty-fifth year of existence in 2008. Hip hop has indeed evolved into a global phenomenon. This dissertation is grounded in Afro-modern, Afrocentric and African-centered theory and utilizes textual and content analysis. This dissertation offers a panoramic view of pre-hip hop era and hip hop era icons, iconology, archetypes and aesthetics and teases out their influence on hip hop aesthetics. I identify specific figures, movements and events within the context of African American and American folk and popular culture traditions and link them to developments within hip hop culture, iconography, and aesthetics. Chapter 1 provides an introduction, which includes a definition of terms, statement of the problem and literature review. It also offers a perfunctory discussion of hip hop

  • Appendix: the Timepiece Hip-Hop Timeline
    APPENDIX: THE TIMEPIECE HIP-HOP TIMELINE 1967 Clive Campbell aka DJ Kool Herc (hip-hop’s first DJ) immi- grates to the West Bronx in New York City from Jamaica. 1968 Rucker Park is a must stop for top college and pro- basketball stars eager to prove themselves. Julius Erving, Wilt Chamberlain, and Kareem Abdul Jabar establish the legacy maintained by the likes of Allen Iverson, Stephon Marbury, Ron Artest, and Elton Brand. The Rucker Tournament, the Rucker Pro League, and the Entertainer’s Basketball Classic are legendary touchstones for hip-hop’s love affair with athletics. 1968–9 James Brown records and releases “Funky Drummer” (one of the most sampled drum tracks in hip-hop history) and “Say It Loud (I’m Black and I’m Proud).” 1969 Greek-born Demetrius from 183 Street in the Bronx makes himself famous by “tagging” Taki 183 throughout the five boroughs of New York City. 1973 DJ Kool Herc DJs his first party. 1974 Afrika Bambaataa leaves the Black Spades (one of the largest and most violent gangs in New York) to form hip-hop’s first organization, the ZULU Nation. 1974 Busy Bee Starski, DJ Hollywood, and/or Afrika Bambaataa coin the term “hip-hop.” 1975 Grand Wizard Theodore discovers the scratch. 1976 The first pieces (i.e., graf-like murals) appear on New York City subway trains. 1977 Bronx B. Boys, Jimmy D., and Jojo establish the legendary Rock Steady Crew (joined by Crazy Legs and Lenny Len in 1979). 1979 Sugarhill Gang’s “Rapper’s Delight” spends 12 weeks on the Billboard pop chart, ushering in the era of the emcee with all of its lyrical battles and authorial challenges.

Diamond District featuring Steve Smith - First Time (2009) Intro Rap, was at its root, an opportunity created from a combination of existing African-American musical traditions and a new imperative of expression emanating from newly empowered oppressed peoples. Inner city youth (blacks, Latinos Caribbean creoles, etc) pushed this imperative forward into a musical form that expressed new and bold iterations of an identity informed by civil rights, protest and black empowerment. Rap was in fact a new 'code' that highlighted their unique urban experiences, hopes and disappointment, while also serving as an explosive and infectious artistic outlet. It is the thesis of The Woozy that hip hop follows in the wake of many musical innovations created by African Americans from the bits and pieces of rhythms, chorals, chants and percussive traditions brought to the new world from Africa. African-American music has re-imagined these basic components and adapted them to form new musical forms such as negro spirituals, delta blues, folk, dixie, jazz, blues, gospel, R&B, Rock, Doo-Wop, Funk, Soul, Spoken Word, Rap,..
