Identificação do Curso 2º Ciclo em Comunicação e Jornalismo Data da defesa Classificação 2 Resumo Embora o Punk tenha surgido em finais da década de 70 como uma contra-cultura revolucionária que se opôs aos valores sociais vigentes da sociedade inglesa, rapidamente a indústria absorveu este movimento social. A atual aceitação social da prévia rebeldia Punk deu-se através da sua comercialização, onde foi possível ao mainstream suavizar os seus aspetos mais agressivos popularizando assim agrupamentos musicais do género. A vulgarização do Punk ocorreu deste modo através da incorporação comercial da sua música e estética. Neste relatório de estágio reflete-se sobre o papel e a influência da indústria no Punk. Através de uma análise ao festival Mighty Sounds, compreenderemos como a comercialização desta tribo urbana tornou este fenómeno facilmente reconhecido a nível mundial e qual o impacto da indústria nos movimentos do underground, desconhecidos pelo grande público, e que se encontram fora dos mediatismos comerciais e noticiosos. Palavras-chave: Mighty Sounds, Punk, Música, Festivais de Verão, República Checa, Praga 3 Abstract Although Punk has emerged in the late 70s as a revolutionary counter-culture that opposed the prevailing social values of English society, the industry quickly absorbed this social movement.

While these are too numerous to list (or even remember for that matter) in this instance, I would nonetheless like to acknowledge and thank everyone who has traversed my life path over the years, for without them I would not be who I am today. There are, however, a number of people who deserve singling out for special mention. Firstly I would like to thank Dr Malcolm Cathcart. It was Malcolm who suggested I embark on doctoral study and introduced me to the Professional Studies Program at the University of Southern Queensland. It was also Malcolm’s encouragement that “sold” me on my ability to undertake doctoral work.

  • Christian Rock Concerts As a Meeting Between Religion and Popular Culture
    ANDREAS HAGER Christian Rock Concerts as a Meeting between Religion and Popular Culture Introduction Different forms of artistic expression play a vital role in religious practices of the most diverse traditions. One very important such expression is music. This paper deals with a contemporary form of religious music, Christian rock. Rock or popular music has been used within Christianity as a means for evangelization and worship since the end of the 1960s.1 The genre of "contemporary Christian music", or Christian rock, stands by definition with one foot in established institutional (in practicality often evangelical) Christianity, and the other in the commercial rock music industry. The subject of this paper is to study how this intermediate position is manifested and negotiated in Christian rock concerts. Such a performance of Christian rock music is here assumed to be both a rock concert and a religious service. The paper will examine how this duality is expressed in practices at Christian rock concerts. The research context of the study is, on the one hand, the sociology of religion, and on the other, the small but growing field of the study of religion and popular culture. The sociology of religion discusses the role and posi- tion of religion in contemporary society and culture. The duality of Chris- tian rock and Christian rock concerts, being part of both a traditional religion and a modern medium and business, is understood here as a concrete exam- ple of the relation of religion to modern society. The study of the relations between religion and popular culture seems to have been a latent field within research on religion at least since the 1970s, when the possibility of the research topic was suggested in a pioneer volume by John Nelson (1976).

    Spectatrices: Moviegoing and Women’s Writing, 1925-1945 Nolan Gear Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2021 © 2021 Nolan Gear All Rights Reserved Abstract Spectatrices: Moviegoing and Women’s Writing, 1925-1945 Nolan Gear How did cinema influence the many writers who also constituted the first generation of moviegoers? In Spectatrices, I argue that early moviegoing was a rich imaginative reservoir for anglophone writers on both sides of the Atlantic. Coming to cinema from the vantage of the audience, I suggest that women of the 1920s found in moviegoing a practice of experimentation, aesthetic inquiry, and social critique. My project is focused on women writers not only as a means of reclaiming the femininized passivity of the audience, but because moviegoing offered novel opportunities for women to gather publicly. It was, for this reason, a profoundly political endeavor in the first decades of the 20th century. At the movies, writers such as Jessie Redmon Fauset, Zora Neale Hurston, H.D., Dorothy Richardson, and Virginia Woolf developed concepts of temporary community, alternative desire, and discontinuous form that they then incorporated into their literary practice. Where most scholarship assessing cinema’s influence on literature is governed by the medium-specificity of film, my project emphasizes the public dimension of the movies, the fleeting and semi-anonymous intimacy of the moviegoing audience. In turning to moviegoing, Spectatrices opens new methods of comparison and cross-canonical reorganization, focusing on the weak social ties typified by moviegoing audiences, the libidinal permissiveness of fantasy and diva-worship, the worshipful rhetoric by which some writers transformed the theater into a church, and most significantly, the creation of new public formations for women across different axes of class, gender, and race.

  • The Interstitial, Musical Authenticity, and Social Identity
    Hector N. Qirko* The Interstitial, Musical Authenticity, and Social Identity Resumen: Se exploran los procesos de autentificación musical examinando las reacciones de expertos de música y auditorios frente a la música de un grupo neoyorquino ‘intersticial’, es decir, entre diferentes géneros, “Los Cubanos Postizos”. Parece que cuestiones de autenticidad musical son de importancia para los críticos y el auditorio del grupo, al contrario de las expectativas basa- das en características del arte posmoderno, de la globalización social y de la constitución compleja del grupo mismo. De 54 comentarios examinados (im- presos, distribuidos por el Internet, o en entrevistas), 40 definen autenticidad por uno o más de los cuatro criterios siguientes: intención artística, característi- cas musicales técnicas, emoción musical y las credenciales de los artistas. Esto sugiere la continuidad de la relevancia de la autentificación para la formación y el mantenimiento de identidades de grupos en la sociedad contemporánea. Summary: This paper explores the process of musical authentication by examining the reactions of music experts and audiences to the music of an interstitial (inter-genre) New York group, “Los Cubanos Postizos”. Contrary to expectations based on characteristics of postmodern art, social globalization, and the complicated nature of the group itself, issues of musical authenticity appear to be important to the band’s reviewers and audience. Of 54 print, web, and interview commentaries examined, 40 address authenticity by means of one or more of the following four criteria: artistic intent, technical musical characteristics, musical emotion, and the credentials of the artists. This suggests the continuing relevance of authentication to the formation and maintenance of group identities in contemporary society.
