Robin Cook's Abduction
Robin Cook’s Abduction: Sources of the Novel Alena Kolínská Bachelor Thesis 2013 ABSTRAKT Cílem této bakalářské práce je analýza románu Planeta Interterra (2000) spisovatele Robina Cooka z hlediska intertextuality. Uvede pojem intertextualita a stručně podá názory na vnímání intertextuality. Poté následuje rozbor dané knihy a hledání jejích možných zdrojů, které mohly spisovatele ovlivnit či inspirovat při psaní pro něj netypického románu. Z rozboru knihy vyplývá, že hlavními zdroji byly knihy Utopie (1516) Thomase Mora, Lidé jako bozi (1923) Herberta George Wellse, Konec civilizace: aneb Překrásný nový svět (1932) Aldouse Huxleyho a také řecká mytologie a historie všeobecně. Klíčová slova: Americká literatura; Robin Cook; intertextualita; Planeta Interterra; utopie; dystopie; fikce; dutozemě ABSTRACT The aim of this bachelor thesis is to analyze the novel Abduction (2000) by Robin Cook in the view of intertextuality. The term intertextuality is introduced, followed by a brief list of views on intertextuality. Subsequently the novel is analyzed, searching for the possible sources which might have influenced or inspired the author when writing a type of novel not typical for him. The analysis shows that the main sources for the novel were four: Utopia (1516) by Thomas More, Men like Gods (1923) by Herbert George Wells, Brave New World (1932) by Aldous Huxley, and Greek mythology as well as the history itself. Keywords: American literature; Robin Cook; intertextuality; Abduction; utopia; dystopia; fiction; hollow earth ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to express my deepest gratitude to my supervisor, Mgr. Roman Trušník, Ph.D., for his invaluable advice, patience, guidance and support. I also owe a great thanks to Mgr. -

Summer Assignments – AP Biology Vincent J. Benitez [email protected] http://www.vbbiology.weebly.com 1. Reading Assignment o Choose a book by Robin Cook to read. A list of medical thriller novels is listed below. Dr. Robin Cook is considered to be the master of the medical thriller! He does an enormous amount of research, so all of his books contain good, exciting biology. After reading the book, write a 1-2 page paper containing the following: o Concise summary of the plot. o Highlight the biological aspect(s) of the novel. How does/do the biological aspect(s) play a role in the novel. What technologies/procedures/concepts were used in the novel? o Link the biological aspect(s) of the novel to chapters in the AP Biology textbook. For example, if the book were about a virus, where would you find that topic in the textbook? What other connections can be associated with viruses? Perhaps the immune system, or cells, or biotechnology, etc. List those chapters as well. o Your opinion of the novel. Did you like the book? Did the plot seem too farfetched, or perhaps very plausible? What did you think about how the author used biology to develop interest and carry the story line throughout the book? Book Review Coordinating Instructions o Before writing your book review, read: The Basics of Scientific Writing in APA Style, by Pam Marek. You can find this article at: http://www.macmillanlearning.com/catalog/uploadedfiles/content/worth/custom_solutions/psychology_forew ords/marek_ch04_apastyle_color.pdf.

The Practical Past The FlashPoints series is devoted to books that consider literature beyond strictly national and disciplinary frameworks, and that are distinguished both by their historical grounding and by their theoretical and conceptual strength. Our books engage theory without losing touch with history and work historically without falling into uncritical positivism. FlashPoints aims for a broad audience within the humanities and the social sciences concerned with moments of cultural emergence and transformation. In a Benjaminian mode, FlashPoints is interested in how liter- ature contributes to forming new constellations of culture and history and in how such formations function critically and politically in the present. Series titles are available online at http://escholarship.org/uc/fl ashpoints. series editors: Ali Behdad (Comparative Literature and English, UCLA), Founding Editor; Ju- dith Butler (Rhetoric and Comparative Literature, UC Berkeley), Founding Editor; Michelle Clayton (Hispanic Studies and Comparative Literature, Brown Univer- sity); Edward Dimendberg (Film and Media Studies, Visual Studies, and European Languages and Studies, UC Irvine), Coordinator; Catherine Gallagher (English, UC Berkeley), Founding Editor; Nouri Gana (Comparative Literature and Near Eastern Languages and Cultures, UCLA); Susan Gillman (Literature, UC Santa Cruz); Jody Greene (Literature, UC Santa Cruz); Richard Terdiman (Literature, UC Santa Cruz) A complete list of titles begins on p. 118.

The Implicated and the Immune: Cultural Responses to AIDS
The Implicated and the Immune: Cultural Responses to AIDS RICHARD GOLDSTEIN The Village Voice HEN AIDS FIRST PENETRATED AMERICAN consciousness back in 1981, few cultural critics were pre pared to predict that this epidemic would have a broad and W deep impact on the arts. But nine years later, it is possible to argue that virtually every form of art or entertainment in America has been touched by AIDS. Every month, it seems, more is added to the oeuvre of art, dance, music and fiction inspired by the current crisis. Not even tuberculosis, that most literary of epidemics, produced a comparable outpouring in so short a time. Though epidemics have played a major role in shaping American so ciety, artistic production in response to devastating periodic outbreaks of yellow fever, cholera, and influenza (not to mention consumption) has been few and far between. There is no great American novel about the “Spanish Lady” that killed millions in the years following World War I; no revered poem or play commemorating the evacuation of a major American city due to rampaging disease; no major motion pic ture about the polio epidemic that swept the nation in the 1950s. Nothing in American literature is comparable to the preoccupation with pestilence that had inspired great works of European realism by writers as diverse as Defoe, Ibsen, Mann, and Camus. Taken as a whole, American culture’s response to epidemics—from Edgar Allen Poe’s “Masque of the Red Death” to Sinclair Lewis’s Arrowsmith and The Milbank Quarterly, Vol. 68, Suppl. 2, 1990 © 1990 Milbank Memorial Fund 2-95 2.96 Richard Goldstein Hollywood melodramas like Jezebel—has been romantic and didactic. -
