  • War on the Air: CBC-TV and Canada's Military, 1952-1992 by Mallory
    War on the Air: CBC-TV and Canada’s Military, 19521992 by Mallory Schwartz Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctorate in Philosophy degree in History Department of History Faculty of Arts University of Ottawa © Mallory Schwartz, Ottawa, Canada, 2014 ii Abstract War on the Air: CBC-TV and Canada‘s Military, 19521992 Author: Mallory Schwartz Supervisor: Jeffrey A. Keshen From the earliest days of English-language Canadian Broadcasting Corporation television (CBC-TV), the military has been regularly featured on the news, public affairs, documentary, and drama programs. Little has been done to study these programs, despite calls for more research and many decades of work on the methods for the historical analysis of television. In addressing this gap, this thesis explores: how media representations of the military on CBC-TV (commemorative, history, public affairs and news programs) changed over time; what accounted for those changes; what they revealed about CBC-TV; and what they suggested about the way the military and its relationship with CBC-TV evolved. Through a material culture analysis of 245 programs/series about the Canadian military, veterans and defence issues that aired on CBC-TV over a 40-year period, beginning with its establishment in 1952, this thesis argues that the conditions surrounding each production were affected by a variety of factors, namely: (1) technology; (2) foreign broadcasters; (3) foreign sources of news; (4) the influence

  • Dominion Cartoon Satire As Trench Culture Narratives: Complaints, Endurance and Stoicism
    1 Dominion Cartoon Satire as Trench Culture Narratives: complaints, endurance and stoicism. Jane Chapman, Professor of Communications, Lincoln University (UK), Research Associate, Wolfson College Cambridge. Dan Ellin, Warwick University (UK). Keywords: 1914-18, World War 1, Canadian, Australian, New Zealander, trench culture, cartoons, trench newspapers, humour, courage, Western Front. Abstract Although Dominion soldiers’ Great War field publications are relatively well known, the way troops created cartoon multi-panel formats in some of them, has been neglected as a record of satirical social observation. Visual narrative humour provides a ‘bottom up’ perspective for journalistic observations that in many cases capture the spirit of the army in terms of stoicism, buoyed by a culture of internal complaints. Troop concerns expressed in the early comic strips of Australians, Canadians, New Zealanders, and British were similar. They shared a collective editorial purpose of morale boosting amongst the ranks through the use of everyday narratives that elevated the anti-heroism of the citizen soldier, portrayed as a transnational everyman in the service of Empire. The regenerative value of 2 disparagement humour provided a redefinition of courage as the very act of endurance at the Western Front. Introduction The First World War represented the peak of soldier newspaper production, thus textual expressions by soldiers in their own trench and troopship newspapers are relatively well known (Fuller, 1990; Seal 1990, 2013a, 2013b; Kent 1999; Nelson 2010, 2011), but the way the men created and used cartoon multi-panel format, is not. Humorous visual self - expression represents a record of satirical social observation from a ‘bottom up’ perspective, with potential to contribute to the trend towards use of a wider range of sources in First World War historiography.

  • Ley and Lois Smith War, Memory and Popular Culture Research
    Ley and Lois Smith War, Memory and Popular Culture Research Collection Department of History The University of Western Ontario INTRODUCTION The collection is a diverse assortment of archival materials, microforms, published and printed documents, and secondary sources relating to the cultural dimensions of conflict and the collective memory of war. Its holdings, which might be broadly defined as ephemera, are strongest in a number of areas: • popular culture artifacts • materials relating to veterans organizations • children’s literature and educational materials relating to war history • military training and instructional manuals • wartime publications • materials relating to prisoners of war There are also a large number of personal files that vary in their content. Some contain a long range of correspondence or other material, while others contain a single image or artifact. The original materials in the collection are eclectic, and reflect the manner in which they have been gathered. The emphasis has not been on a coherent acquisitions policy, but rather on preserving materials that might otherwise have been lost. Visits to the collection are by appointment only. Researchers who are unable to visit the archives in person may in certain circumstances be able to purchase photocopies of selected materials. For further information, please contact: Jonathan F.
