  • Los Simpson Versus Trump

SIMPSON El corto titulado “Donald Trump’s first 100 days in office”,1 publicado el 26 de abril de 2017 como parte de la temporada 28 de Los Simpson en el canal Animation Fox en Youtube, cierra con un negro sarcasmo.2 En una serie, en la que por casi tres décadas se han utilizado los matices y las sutilezas indis- pensables para que los episodios, escritos con gran inteligencia por presti- giosos grupos de guionistas irreverentes,3 tengan como característica sobresaliente tres figuras retóricas, la parodia, la ironía y, sobre todo, la sátira, * Directora e investigadora del Centro de Investigaciones sobre América del Norte de la Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, <[email protected]>. 1 En este artículo utilizaré los títulos de los capítulos y los nombres que se le han dado a los per- sonajes en español en el doblaje para México (donde la serie comenzó a transmitirse en el canal 13 de Imevisión en marzo de 1991, los martes a las 20:30 horas), pero, en su mayoría, las citas textuales de los diálogos se harán en el original en inglés debido a que el doblaje tropicaliza las alusiones y, por tratarse aquí de los partidos y los políticos estadunidenses, es importante que se conserven. En el caso específico de este corto, puesto que no fue exhibido fuera de Estados Unidos y Canadá, y como la wiki en español aún está consignando la temporada 27, el título del mismo se anota en inglés.

  • (Don't) Wear Glasses: the Performativity of Smart Girls On
    GIRLS WHO (DON'T) WEAR GLASSES: THE PERFORMATIVITY OF SMART GIRLS ON TEEN TELEVISION Sandra B. Conaway 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 2007 Committee: Kristine Blair, Advisor Julie Edmister Graduate Faculty Representative Erin Labbie Katherine Bradshaw © 2007 Sandra Conaway All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Kristine Blair, Advisor This dissertation takes a feminist view of t television programs featuring smart girls, and considers the “wave” of feminism popular at the time of each program. Judith Butler’s concept from Gender Trouble of “gender as a performance,” which says that normative behavior for a given gender is reinforced by culture, helps to explain how girls learn to behave according to our culture’s rules for appropriate girlhood. Television reinforces for intellectual girls that they must perform their gender appropriately, or suffer the consequences of being invisible and unpopular, and that they will win rewards for performing in more traditionally feminine ways. 1990-2006 featured a large number of hour-long television dramas and dramedies starring teenage characters, and aimed at a young audience, including Beverly Hills, 90210, My So-Called Life, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Freaks and Geeks, and Gilmore Girls. In most teen shows there is a designated smart girl who is not afraid to demonstrate her interest in math or science, or writing or reading. In lieu of ethnic or racial minority characters, she is often the “other” of the group because of her less conventionally attractive appearance, her interest in school, her strong sense of right and wrong, and her lack of experience with boys.

  • Linguistica Pragensia 2018-1
    Language is embiggened by words that don’t exist: the case of a circumfix Aleš Klégr (Praha) The Simpsons’ Springfield town motto “A noble spirit embiggens1 the smallest man.” ABSTRACT The paper deals with parasynthetic formations combining the prefix en- and the suffix -en, which are sometimes regarded as an example of a circumfix in English. The aim is to find more instances of this pattern than the usual three or four mentioned in the literature (enlighten, embolden, enliven, and embiggen). After searching three corpora of several billion words without much success, an ex- periment was made to search the Web for hypothetical verb tokens constructed from monosyllabic adjectives on the pattern provided by the four initial verbs. The search confirmed that more than a hundred such verbs occur on the Web. The discovery of so many en-Adj-en verbs unacknowledged in standard reference books is attributed to the effect of big data on the Web; it is assumed that the en-Adj-en pattern is the type of process whose function is primarily pragmatic, occasion-specific and discourse-oriented, rather than lexical (i.e. concept labelling). As a result, although the pattern is available for active use, these formations, after having served their purpose, rarely get beyond the nonce-word stage, let alone enter the lexicon. KEYWORDS parasynthesis, circumfix, en-Adj-en pattern, conjectural forms, Web search experiment 1. PRELIMINARIES The first part of the paper’s title quotes the headline of Bauer’s (2008) brief note on the Web. He addresses the question of the status of words we may have seen or heard but which are not listed in the standard reference books, and uses the word embig- gen as an example.

  • “Trumpism”? Part 1 Clay Nelson © 3 April 2016
    Is New Zealand safe from “Trumpism”? Part 1 Clay Nelson © 3 April 2016 Sixteen years ago there was an episode of The Simpsons where Bart is shown his life 30 years in the future. Not surprisingly he learns he will become a beer-swilling bum. On the other hand Lisa is shown behind the desk in the Oval Office as the “first straight female President” telling her staff “As you know, we’ve inherited quite a budget crunch from President Trump. How bad is it? The country is broke.” It turns out that Dan Greaney who wrote the episode may have only been about six years off in his prediction. His explanation for the prescient prediction was he wanted Lisa to come into the presidency when America is on the ropes. “What we needed was for Lisa to have problems that were beyond her fixing, that everything was as bad as it could possibly be. That’s why we had Trump be president before her.” “The Simpson’s,” he said, “has always embraced the over-the-top side of American culture … and Trump is just the fulfilment of that.” For that reason The Donald has been a running joke for late night television hosts for decades. Jon Stewart had only one regret in his decision to step down from The Daily Show recently. When he announced it he did not know Trump was going to run for president, which would have given him an enormous amount of fodder for his special brand of satire. In other words, no one thought anyone could or would take Trump seriously.

  • Homer Simpson, on His Role As Internet Journalist Mr. X
    The Scoop on The Simpsons: Journalism in U.S. Television’s Longest Running Prime-Time Animated Series By Stephanie Woo “I changed the world. Now I know exactly how God feels.”1 – Homer Simpson, on his role as Internet journalist Mr. X Although the journalists of The Simpsons are far from godly, news in The Simpsons is vital, if for no reason other than its ability to provide exposition and advance a plot quickly. A week of Homer Simpson’s public service is documented with daily headlines as he gets speed bumps and safety signs installed.2 Power-plant owner Montgomery Burns’ rise and fall in a gubernatorial campaign occur through headlines reading: “Burns Skyrockets to Seven Percent in Latest Polls,” “Burns Nukes Bailey in Latest Poll,” “Forty-Two Percent and Climbing,” and, in the end, a broadcast story announcing: “The latest polls indicate Burns’ popularity has plummeted to Earth like so much half-chewed fish.”3 But media in The Simpsons are more than a plot device. They are the representation of journalistic quality, integrity, and influence. The news industry on The Simpsons faces the same dilemmas as outlets such as CBS News and The New York Times – maligned public images, a dearth of audience trust, and the chore of maintaining both credibility and entertainment value. When an anonymous Internet watchdog gains popularity in town, news anchor Kent Brockman tells his television audience: “We must never forget that the real news is on local TV, delivered by real, officially licensed newsmen like me, Kent Brockman.” But the news up next on Brockman’s show is an expose about a beer commercial’s talking dogs, presented by a newsman called Cowboy Steve.4 Stephanie Woo 2 A Show with a Message Simpsons creator Matt Groening has never been a news anchor, but he has been a journalist.

The Edison got its start as a music club in the 1930s, featuring the era’s top Swing bands. Then, in the 1990s it briefly became The Supper Club, hosting everyone from Tony Bennett to David Bowie. In the interim, it was the Edison Theatre, home to many Broadway shows, including the infamous “Oh! Calcutta!” But tonight is not about great music or Seventies nudity. It’s about elevating the words of the writer. The Writers Guild of America, East brings us here to honor some of the best work that our members have produced in the past year.
