Copyright 2013 Shawn Patrick Gilmore THE INVENTION OF THE GRAPHIC NOVEL: UNDERGROUND COMIX AND CORPORATE AESTHETICS BY SHAWN PATRICK GILMORE DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2013 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Michael Rothberg, Chair Professor Cary Nelson Associate Professor James Hansen Associate Professor Stephanie Foote ii Abstract This dissertation explores what I term the invention of the graphic novel, or more specifically, the process by which stories told in comics (or graphic narratives) form became longer, more complex, concerned with deeper themes and symbolism, and formally more coherent, ultimately requiring a new publication format, which came to be known as the graphic novel. This format was invented in fits and starts throughout the twentieth century, and I argue throughout this dissertation that only by examining the nuances of the publishing history of twentieth-century comics can we fully understand the process by which the graphic novel emerged. In particular, I show that previous studies of the history of comics tend to focus on one of two broad genealogies: 1) corporate, commercially-oriented, typically superhero-focused comic books, produced by teams of artists; 2) individually-produced, counter-cultural, typically autobiographical underground comix and their subsequent progeny. In this dissertation, I bring these two genealogies together, demonstrating that we can only truly understand the evolution of comics toward the graphic novel format by considering the movement of artists between these two camps and the works that they produced along the way. -

Mgr. et Mgr. Jana Kasparova; University of West Bohemia, Faculty of Philosophy and Arts, Dept. of English Lang. and Lit. The Art of Storytelling: A Peek Into the Graphic Literary World Literary world has never been only black and white. The characters we love to read about have never been only good and bad. Let us peek into the world where graphics and colours play as important role as the words and letters written on the page. Let us explore the world of contemporary comic books and graphic novels, learn about their characteristics and specifics and meet the authors who are considered to be the superheroes of this rediscovered literary genre. Someone might think that comics and graphic novels are just for children and young adults. But that would be a mistake! Look at a few examples of graphic novels which may blow your mind and teach you about real world! Graphic novel VERSUS Comic Book Before talking about particular representatives of contemporary graphic literature, learn a bit about the basics of the genre. Do you know the terminology? Can you define the following terms, pointing at possible differences between them? comic book - graphic novel - A brief historical overview combination of words and pictures stretches back into antiquity (ancient Egyptian wall paintings) current vocabulary shaped with the rise of the comic strip popularized in newspapers at the start of the 20th century introduction of the fundamentals of the comics language — (balloons, panel to panel narrative progression) Winsor McCay, George Herriman, E.C. -

Cosmopolitanism, Remediation and the Ghost World of Bollywood
COSMOPOLITANISM, REMEDIATION, AND THE GHOST WORLD OF BOLLYWOOD DAVID NOVAK CUniversity ofA California, Santa Barbara Over the past two decades, there has been unprecedented interest in Asian popular media in the United States. Regionally identified productions such as Japanese anime, Hong Kong action movies, and Bollywood film have developed substantial nondiasporic fan bases in North America and Europe. This transnational consumption has passed largely under the radar of culturalist interpretations, to be described as an ephemeral by-product of media circulation and its eclectic overproduction of images and signifiers. But culture is produced anew in these “foreign takes” on popular media, in which acts of cultural borrowing channel emergent forms of cosmopolitan subjectivity. Bollywood’s global circulations have been especially complex and surprising in reaching beyond South Asian diasporas to connect with audiences throughout the world. But unlike markets in Africa, Eastern Europe, and Southeast Asia, the growing North American reception of Bollywood is not necessarily based on the films themselves but on excerpts from classic Bollywood films, especially song-and- dance sequences. The music is redistributed on Western-produced compilations andsampledonDJremixCDssuchasBollywood Beats, Bollywood Breaks, and Bollywood Funk; costumes and choreography are parodied on mainstream television programs; “Bollywood dancing” is all over YouTube and classes are offered both in India and the United States.1 In this essay, I trace the circulation of Jaan Pehechaan Ho, a song-and-dance sequence from the 1965 Raja Nawathe film Gumnaam that has been widely recircu- lated in an “alternative” nondiasporic reception in the United States. I begin with CULTURAL ANTHROPOLOGY, Vol. 25, Issue 1, pp. -
English-Language Graphic Narratives in Canada
Drawing on the Margins of History: English-Language Graphic Narratives in Canada by Kevin Ziegler A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfilment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2013 © Kevin Ziegler 2013 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract This study analyzes the techniques that Canadian comics life writers develop to construct personal histories. I examine a broad selection of texts including graphic autobiography, biography, memoir, and diary in order to argue that writers and readers can, through these graphic narratives, engage with an eclectic and eccentric understanding of Canadian historical subjects. Contemporary Canadian comics are important for Canadian literature and life writing because they acknowledge the importance of contemporary urban and marginal subcultures and function as representations of people who occasionally experience economic scarcity. I focus on stories of “ordinary” people because their stories have often been excluded from accounts of Canadian public life and cultural history. Following the example of Barbara Godard, Heather Murray, and Roxanne Rimstead, I re- evaluate Canadian literatures by considering the importance of marginal literary products. Canadian comics authors rarely construct narratives about representative figures standing in place of and speaking for a broad community; instead, they create what Murray calls “history with a human face . the face of the daily, the ordinary” (“Literary History as Microhistory” 411). -

Paperinik, Ou Comment Les Italiens Sont Parvenus À Mettre Des Pantalons À Donald Duck
Paperinik, ou comment les Italiens sont parvenus à mettre des pantalons à Donald Duck Gianni Haver et Michaël Meyer Parmi la production des bandes dessinées Disney, un personnage peu connu dans le contexte francophone est pourtant un véritable mythe en Italie. Il est à la fois un héros apprécié pour les histoires dans lesquelles il apparaît et un ambassadeur de l’école Disney italienne. Il s’agit de Paperinik, le double super-héroïque de Donald Duck. Du point de vue de l’étude de la bande des- sinée, il constitue une figure très pertinente pour interroger la circulation des modèles visuels et narratifs de la culture de masse américaine, et leurs réap- propriations par le Vieux Continent. Pour faire apparaître les échanges et les hybridations qui sont à l’ori- gine du personnage de Paperinik, il est nécessaire d’effectuer un itinéraire qui tient compte à la fois de l’arrivée des productions Disney en Italie et de la diffusion des récits de super-héros américains. L’intégration de ces produc- tions dans le paysage culturel italien est démontrée par une appropriation rapide qui donne lieu à une production locale, aussi bien de récits Disney que d’aventures super-héroïques. Dans le cadre du personnage de Paperinik, ces influences vont se combiner avec des motifs issus de productions autochtones, en particulier les bandes dessinées mettant en scène des héros criminels. BD-US : les comics vus par Europe Disney en l’Italie Les personnages de Disney naissent aux États-Unis dans le cinéma d’anima- tion des années 1920, avant de connaître un rapide succès sous la forme de comic strips dès janvier 1930, puis de comic books. -
