  • Some Cultural and Linguistic Functions of Obituaries In
    WHAT WE TALK ABOUT WHEN AND WHERE WE TALK ABOUT DEATH: SOME CULTURAL AND LINGUISTIC FUNCTIONS OF OBITUARIES IN MODERN AMERICAN CULTURE A RESEARCH PAPER SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL IN PARTIAL FULLFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE MASTERS OF ARTS BY CRYSTAL D. KIDD DR. ELIZABETH RIDDLE-ADVISOR BALL STATE UNIVERSITY MUNCIE, INDIANA DECEMBER 2011 2 Death is not an option, but writing and publishing an obituary is a choice—a choice that many people still make every day. The reasons behind it are many because published obituaries continue to serve many private and public functions. They announce a death to a community. They extend an invitation to attend a funeral both explicitly and often also implicitly to the general public. They are a permanent public record of a death. They are a commemoration of a life lived and valued as well as a written public rhetorical space for reflecting the personal and social values surrounding death and life within a society‟s mainstream culture. This study will examine how U.S. American mainstream culture writes about death as it occurs every day to ordinary people. Drawing from a number of sources that concern the interconnected fields of sociolinguistics, English language rhetoric and writing, communication studies, as well as my own original research, my primary aim here is to explore questions concerning what the modern, twenty-first century, U.S. obituary reveals about our cultural understanding of death and ways in which the modern obituary format influences how we announce, honor, and say farewell to the individual. Specifically, this paper will address two related areas of inquiry concerning obituaries as cultural and linguistic artifacts.

I'm not even a big baseball fan and this one was one of my favorites in the book. After discovering his talent- he swears to use it sparingly and on bad people only, but this has unforeseen consequences. Since his first collection, Nightshift , published 35 years ago, Stephen King has dazzled listeners with his genius as a writer of short fiction. Not his usual. There are thrilling connections between stories, including themes of morality, the afterlife, guilt, and what we would do differently if we could see into the future or correct the mistakes of the past. A series of mile drives in college led to Mile 81 and the most homicidal car since Christine. I was delighted to see Drunken Fireworks included as it was originally released as an audiobook exclusive this summer. Plus, it features autobiographical comments on when, why and how he came to write or rewrite each story. More Details It's cool. Pain you cannot see is usually written off or flat out ignored by the very people who you seek help from. Add to Wish List failed. Although I must say, I really love the structure of this story. Cancel anytime. There were some stories here I loved , and some that, as some of Mr. Listeners also enjoyed Mile 81 — This story was surprisingly and glaringly amateur.

  • The Art & Craft of the Obituary
    THE ART & CRAFT OF THE OBITUARY American Historical Association Annual Meeting Washington D.C., January 2014 • THE NORMAN LEAR CENTER THE ART AND CRAFT OF THE OBITUARY • THE NORMAN LEAR CENTER The Norman Lear Center is a nonpartisan research and public policy center that studies the social, political, economic and cultural impact of entertainment on the world. The Lear Center translates its findings into action through testimony, journalism, strategic research and innovative public outreach campaigns. On campus, from its base in the USC Annenberg School for Communication & Journalism, the Lear Center builds bridges between schools and disciplines whose faculty study aspects of entertainment, media and culture. Beyond campus, it bridges the gap between the entertainment industry and academia, and between them and the public. Through scholarship and research; through its conferences, public events and publications; and in its attempts to illuminate and repair the world, the Lear Center works to be at the forefront of discussion and practice in the field. For more information, please visit: www.learcenter.org. HISTORIANS, JOURNALISTS & THE CHALLENGES OF GETTING IT RIGHT Historians, Journalists and the Challenges of Getting It Right is a partnership of the Lear Center, USC Annenberg’s Center for Communication Leadership & Policy and the American Historical Association”s National History Center. It begins with the premise that both professions, historians and journalists, are in the business of finding and assessing evidence; of analyzing events; and of narrating events. Both are storytellers. Both could enhance their work by learning from each other, by establishing networks that connect them, by sharing expertise and by sharing practical knowledge about media and methods.

    H Obituaries pre-1923, not previously shared (from Monica Schirmer Eshelman) Date of death: 16 Aug 1902 Subject: Lewis J. Halfhill Source: St. Joseph Daily News, 18 Aug 1902, p. 6 A. J. Halfhril [sic], engineer on a thresher engine, was instantly killed at 7 o'clock Saturday evening on the Alf bridge over the third fork of the Platte river, one and a half miles west of Clarksdale, by the breaking of the bridge. Four other men, members of the threshing crew, narrowly escaped death by jumping from the falling bridge. The man who was killed and his companions were crossing the bridge, a fifty-foot span, when it suddenly gave way, falling a distance of fifteen feet to the water below. Halfrill jumped to the south side of the bridge and was caught under the falling enginer, being crushed to death. Halfhrill's companions jumped from the opposite side and escapes with slight injuries. Acting Coroner Charles F. Boyd was notified and yesterday visited the scene of the accident. It was decided that it was not necessary to hold an inquest. Halfhril, who was thirty years of age, lived at Rosendale, where a widow and two children survive. The body was taken to Rosendale, where the funeral was held today.
