Haiti: Crisis, Western Imaginings, and Visual Rhetoric HAITI: CRISIS, WESTERN IMAGININGS, AND VISUAL RHETORIC By CHRISTOPHER GARLAND A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2014 © 2014 Christopher Garland To Carol, Duncan, Louise, and Alistair McRae Glass ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Finishing this dissertation was not nearly as difficult as getting to the place where I could begin it. I have to thank Sid Dobrin for letting me embark on what was not the most typical rhetoric project. His guidance and intellect made sure that this dissertation came to fruition, and his practical advice about academic life has proved equally invaluable. My parents, Carol and Duncan, made everything possible through their incredible emotional support (not to mention loaning me money to take my first trip to Haiti). My sister, Louise: thank you for the Skype conversations and advice about healthy living. Benjamin Hebblethwaite provided the kind of mentorship (and, just as importantly, friendship) that graduate school should be all about, and I learnt so much about Haiti’s culture and religion through our conversations; I hope some of that is reflected in the following pages. Leah Rosenberg was tireless when it came to feedback on my work (and job search) demands, and her deep knowledge of other parts of the Caribbean provided crucial context for this project. Laurie Gries asked exactly the right questions at the most pertinent times, and I was lucky to have access to her expertise in both visual rhetoric and cultural studies. And, of course, Sara, I couldn’t have done it without you. 4 TABLE OF CONTENTS page ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ...............................................................................................................4 LIST OF FIGURES .........................................................................................................................6 ABSTRACT ...................................................................................................................................10 CHAPTER 1 HAITI: CRISIS, WESTERN IMAGININGS, AND VISUAL RHETORIC ..........................11 Zombies ..................................................................................................................................21 Chimé ......................................................................................................................................22 Shaky Ground/Flooded Streets ...............................................................................................24 Junk .........................................................................................................................................26 2 HOLLYWOOD’S HAITI: CRISIS, ALLEGORY, AND HORROR ....................................31 3 THE RHETORIC OF CRISIS AND FORECLOSING THE FUTURE OF HAITI IN GHOSTS OF CITÉ SOLEIL ...................................................................................................63 4 PORT-AU-PRINCE IS NEW ORLEANS: RACE, SPACE, AND SPECTACULAR ABJECTION ...........................................................................................................................92 5 ATIS REZISTANS: HAITIAN ART AND THE VISUAL CULTURE OF RESISTANCE ......................................................................................................................125 6 CONCLUSION .....................................................................................................................154 LIST OF REFERENCES .............................................................................................................156 BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH .......................................................................................................168 5 LIST OF FIGURES Figure page 1-1 National Palace, Port-au-Prince, July 2012 (photo courtesy of the author)......................11 1-2 Herz, Ansel. “Haitian street demonstrators want the UN's MINUSTUH troops to leave.” Photograph.

  • In Praise of Tim Burton
    In Praise of Tim Burton By William Woof Spring 1998 Issue of KINEMA IN PRAISE OF TIM BURTON: FINDING THE MASTERPIECE IN MARS ATTACKS ”Science fiction is a literary province I used to visit fairly often; if I now visit it seldom, that isnotbecause my taste has improved but because the province has changed, being now covered with new building estates, in a style I don’t care for. But in the good old days I noticed that whenever critics said anything about it, they betrayed great ignorance.... A great many writers use it for satire; nearly all the most pungent criticism of the American way of life takes this form, and would at once be denounced as un-American if it ventured into any other. C.S. Lewis”(1) Published two years before his death in 1963, Lewis’s comments on critical methods and practices were written in order to highlight the dangers of pigeonholing the entire corpus of a popular genre according to literary prejudices or the presumed practices of its readers. Lewis was acutely aware of the wide literary spectrum covered by science fiction: from mythologizing to hack writing, from eulogies of technology to outright flights of fantasy. But he had also understood those peculiarities of the American naturethat combine a fast-talking entrepreneurship with a productive and industrious ingenuity to create a national character highly prone to deep, xenophobic suspicions of ”alien” ideologies. We may safely assume that had his evaluation been extended to the ”new building estates” of America’s ”golden age” of B-grade SF films of the 1950’s, his analysis would have assimilated not only their tacky, exploitative nature buttheir glorification of technology as well.

    SHRAPNEL PDF, EPUB, EBOOK William Wharton | 272 pages | 16 Aug 2012 | HarperCollins Publishers | 9780007458073 | English | London, United Kingdom Shrapnel (G1) - Transformers Wiki I removed a huge chunk of shrapnel from his shoulder. Before we reassemble we got to find the bomb parts first, which means we need to pick out every piece of shrapnel from all the debris collected at the scene. Shrapnel from an IED. They didn't find any meteor rock in his system, But they did find metal shrapnel from the barrels. Shrapnel from the shell hit and pierced the roof of a prefabricated cabin at that position. Well, Demir Malki was hit with shrapnel from the blast. The blast of energy was so powerful that it sent the Insecticons fleeing in terror. Super Robot Lifeform Transformers 3. The three Insecticons were among Decepticon forces who formed an alliance with the Autobots during a Martian invasion. They saved Ironhide and Jazz from some of the Martians' giant ants. Mars Attacks: The Transformers. In Primax In an unstable amalgam universe created by the machinations of Sideways and Gong , Shrapnel was one of the many Decepticons who assaulted Guardian City in the year He was soon shot down by Leader-1 when the Guardian leader arrived. After history blipped again to include both Decepticons and Renegades , the Shrapnel and Kickback dumped out of Astrotrain were replaced by Screw Head and Crain Brain as the wounded villains reformatted by Unicron into the Sweeps. Echoes and Fragments. In an alternate timeline where Optimus Prime killed Megatron in the Battle of Autobot City , Shrapnel was damaged during the conflict and was thrown out of Astrotrain with other weakened Decepticons in the aftermath of the battle.

  • An Alien Invasion Had Actually Begun
    THE DRAMA OF CHRISTMAS THE PLOT On October 30, 1938, the Mercury Theater of Orsen Wells, broadcast a radio play, “The War of the Worlds.” The play was about Martians invading planet earth. It included fictional news reports describing the invasion. Many of the radio listeners who tuned in after the play began, thought the reports were real, and that an alien invasion had actually begun. A nationwide scare and panic ensued. In many big cities, hysteria was evident in the streets. The event became infamous. No one thought it could happen again, but it did… In September 1996 a television newscaster broke into normal programming with footage of an alien space craft hovering over New York City. A White House press conference on the invasion followed. The supposed news report was actually an advertisement for the Spanish release of the film “Independence Day”… Yet hundreds of alarmed and panicked people swamped the station’s switchboards. Twice, bogus reports of an extraterrestrial invasion have created fear and widespread panic among very gullible human beings… Isn’t it ironic that the one real alien invasion of planet earth was barely noticed? On that first Christmas an other-worldly being visited our planet. The one true God, Creator of heaven and earth, !1 landed on the third rock! Immanuel touched down in a village called “Bethlehem.” God was with us! But outside of a few cows, sheep, and shepherds no one else that night was aware the invasion had taken place. Light from another world shined in our darkness. God’s Christmas drama has a plot popular among movies and TV programs today - an alien invasion.
