THE ROLE of NOSTALGIA in a DETACHED COMMUNITY Martin A PLACE APART: THE ROLE OF NOSTALGIA IN A DETACHED COMMUNITY Martin Otto Zimmann A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2011 Committee: Dr. Scott C. Martin, Advisor Dr. Ruben V. Anguiano Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Kristine Blair Dr. Ellen Berry Dr. Duane Larson ii ABSTRACT Dr. Scott C. Martin, Advisor This work investigated the power of nostalgia in perpetuating rituals and folkways in detached communities. The focus of this study was Camp Luther, a family camp operated under the auspices of Lutheran Outdoor Ministries. Over the summer of 2010, approximately sixty interviews were conducted at the camp, and qualitative data from these interviews was used to formulate ideas and theoretical underpinnings for a concept the author calls “the nostalgic reflex.” These interviews were transcribed and then coded to indicate the manner in which nostalgia was driving the thought processes of the interview subjects. Quotations from the interviews were used throughout the document to support the theory of the nostalgic reflex. The interview data was rich with language and notions that indicated the level to which adherents of the camp were “under the influence” of the nostalgic reflex insofar as their devotion to the ethos of the camp’s character was concerned. One of the most interesting data points was people’s willingness to raise a large sum of money to preserve the lakefront of the camp, giving credence to the theory of “solastalgia” as coined by Glenn Albrecht. The language of the interview subjects also dovetailed neatly into Diane Barthel’s tenets of the Staged Symbolic Community. Also, the work borrowed from Edwin Friedman’s study of homeostasis and emotional triangles in his germinal work Generation to Generation. The study also parsed the differences between Svetlana Boym’s restorative and reflective nostalgia, especially in maintenance of the hetero-normative male dominated status quo at the camp. The work concludes that the academy has a somewhat overt bias against nostalgia. It noted with irony how it is ultimately nostalgia that undergirds the structure of the academy itself iii in the postmodern era. Further studies were discussed in the conclusion, inviting more discourse on the topic, especially in gender and ethnic studies. Ultimately, the work added to the ongoing influences of Harper, Davis, Lowenthal, Boym, and Wilson on the power of nostalgia. From the conclusion: So the nostalgic reflex is there to remind us in times of joy and adversity of those things which matter most. Like any faculty, it can be used for good or ill, depending on the motives of one who wields it. It remains within all of us. It is triggered on a daily basis, and its presence in our cognitive processes is often unseen, yet influential. I know, on a purely cognitive level, that Camp Luther is a collection of mildewed cabins, bland food, with a panoramic vista that only hints at the greater grandeur of an ocean view. This is what the photographs show and the palate recalls. The narrative of camp as polished through the lens of nostalgia, however, breathes magic into my cognition, and my desire for its luminosity trumps my rationalism every time. I only hope that others feel this quickening as I do, not necessarily for camp per se, but for something that adds value to their existence—a sense of Harper’s “presence,” even if that translates into a temporary escape from ennui and malaise. Key words & terms: Nostalgia; Solastalgia; Nostalgic Reflex; Homeostasis; Staged Symbolic Community; Fear; Anxiety iv In memory of my stepfather, Pastor Bill Zimmann, 1933-2011. He spent many afternoons beachcombing the shores of Lake Erie for rainbow glass and other bits of translucence. “Everything is something else.” v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I am grateful to my spouse, Angela, for her unwavering support of my decision to return to the halls of academia for one last go-round. I owe much to my children, Seth, Chelsea, and Amadiya for their patience with me when I was absent from their lives in order to pursue this work. Hopefully this will serve to make your lives more meaningful and richer for the effort. I could not have completed this work without the enthusiasm and support of Camp Luther campers and staff from the summer of 2010. I am especially grateful to Corey & Megan Wagonfield and Bumpy Danforth for their support and friendship during this project. Our conversations at Breezy’s were the stuff of camp lore and magic. May we live to see our children’s children haggle chickens in the dining hall. My time at Bowling Green was more than the sum of its parts due to the influences of people who shaped my thinking. Much thanks is due to the members of my dissertation panel, Scott Martin, Kris Blair, Ellen Berry, Duane Larson, and Ruben Anguiano. Yes, Dr. Martin, years from now I will “look back fondly on this experience.” A shout out goes to my friends Phil Terrie and Errol Lam for encouraging me via Facebook during the dog days of chapters two and three. Also to my colleagues in the cohort—Kelly MacDonald, Eric Weeks, Phillip Cunningham, Adrian Bautista, Sudipto Sanyal, and Aisha McGriff—thank you for putting up with my inane questions. I am also thankful for the hundreds of students who sat in my classrooms when I was a graduate assistant—you taught me to love teaching. vi TABLE OF CONTENTS Page CHAPTER ONE.

  • Reviewing Romcom: (100) Imdb Users and (500) Days of Summer
    . Volume 8, Issue 2 November 2011 Reviewing Romcom: (100) IMDb Users and (500) Days of Summer Inger-Lise Kalviknes Bore Birmingham City University, UK Abstract This article contributes to academic debates around the romantic comedy genre and comedy audiences by examining IMDb user reviews of (500) Days of Summer (2009). Directed by Marc Webb for Fox Searchlight Pictures, (500) Days of Summer was promoted with the tagline ‘Boy meets girl. Boy falls in love. Girl doesn’t’. This presents the film as an unconventional romantic comedy in at least three ways: Firstly, it suggests that these two characters will not actually end up together, which challenges the idea of the romcom couple as ‘meant to be’. Secondly, it presents the possibility that audiences might not get the happy ending we usually expect from comedy. And finally, the tagline casts the boy, rather than the girl, in the role as yearning romantic, thereby challenging the traditional gender roles of heterosexual relationships. So how did audiences respond to this film? At the time of writing, it has been rated by 75,716 IMDb users, and has an average score of 8.0 out of 10. This clearly suggests a favourable reception, but the IMDb reviews also offer qualitative data that can shed further light on how the film has been evaluated. What kinds of criteria are in operation? What elements do reviewers highlight as important for their experiences of the film? How is the film seen to fail for some viewers? Drawing on previous studies of romantic comedy, the analysis will consider how these particular audience members articulated their responses to (500) Days of Summer, as well as their positions as reviewers.

LIMITATIONS ON COPYRIGHT PROTECTION FOR FORMAT IDEAS IN REALITY TELEVISION PROGRAMMING I. INTRODUCTION Television networks constantly compete to find and produce the next big hit. The shifting economic landscape forged by increasing competition between and among ever-proliferating media platforms, however, places extreme pressure on network profit margins. Fully scripted hour-long dramas and half-hour comedies have become increasingly costly, while delivering diminishing ratings in the key demographics most valued by advertisers. It therefore is not surprising that the reality television genre has become a staple of network schedules. New reality shows are churned out each season.1 The main appeal, of course, is that they are cheap to make and addictive to watch. Networks are able to take ordinary people and create a show without having to pay “A-list” actor salaries and hire teams of writers.2 Many of the most popular programs are unscripted, meaning lower cost for higher ratings. Even where the ratings are flat, such shows are capable of generating higher profit margins through advertising directed to large groups of more readily targeted viewers.

  • Socio-Economic Status: a Determinant of Perceptions and Responses to Bullying
    Socio-Economic Status: A Determinant of Perceptions and Responses to Bullying A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School Of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In the Department of Education, Criminal Justice and Social Work by Kelli M. Jette M.Ed. Xavier University June 2007 Committee Chair: Marvin Berlowitz, Ph.D Dissertation Bullying ii Abstract Bullying has been examined by a variety of international professionals, all intent upon stopping this unmanageable problem in the school setting. Many experts have designed and implemented strategic whole-group, anti-bullying campaigns that are purchased by school administrators in the attempt that bullying will be thwarted by a one-size-fits-all “fix” of the pervasive and troublesome behaviors. Bullying continues to impede the efforts of school officials, regardless of the program by which they are educating students. The reason? There are no anti-bullying campaigns that adequately address the dynamics of class, race, and gender. These factors act as a catalyst for different manifestations in the definition of bullying, the perceptions of bullying, and the reactions of teachers and staff towards bullying situations. These factors also account for the differences in behavioral manifestations among students. Race, class, and gender are major determinants of “how” and “why” and “what” perpetrators and victims experience when faced with a bullying incident. Therefore, it is necessary to understand these complex dynamics

Using the method of rhetorical descriptive analysis I answer the research question: How does P!NK combine rhetorical and musical strategies in “Dear Mr. President” to encourage public discourse? The findings indicate that P!NK crafted a unique protest song which effectively uses both rhetorical and musical devices to appeal to her audiences’ emotions and encourages participation in public discourse.
