  • The Weird History of Usamerican Fascism: a Guide (1979-2019) Phd in Critical and Cultural Theory 2019 M.C
    The Weird History of USAmerican Fascism: A Guide (1979-2019) PhD in Critical and Cultural Theory 2019 M.C. McGrady Summary The future, as ever, can be read in comic books. Foretold by the Dark Age of Comics, the doom that now comes to Earth arrives in the form of self-realizing eschatologies, horrors born out of the rutting between unfettered capitalism and its favorite child, technological hubris. When the Big Two comic book publishers began hiring British and Irish authors en masse over the course of the 1980s, these writers brought with them a critical eye sharpened by the political and economic cruelty of the decade. The victims of the Iron Lady came to the New World and set their sights on the empire of the Teflon President, using superhero stories to explore the ideological weapons deployed in the service of global capitalism. The Weird History of USAmerican Fascism tracks the interrelated networks of popular culture and fascism in the United States to demonstrate the degree to which contemporary USAmerican politics embodies the future that the fictional dystopias of the past warned us about. Although the trans-Atlantic political developments of 2016 and their aftermath have sparked a widespread interest in a resurgent Anglophone fascism and its street-level movements – seen most obviously in the loose collection of white supremacists known as the ‘alt- right’ – this interest has been hamstrung by the historical aversion to a serious study of popular and ‘nerd’ culture during the twentieth century. By paying attention to the conceptual and interpersonal networks that emerged from the comic books and videogames of the 1980s, The Weird History of USAmerican Fascism fills a critical lacuna in cultural theory while correcting recent oversights in the academic analysis of contemporary fascism, providing an essential guide to the past, present, and future of the bizarre world of USAmerican politics.

  • Paver Og Prester I South Park
    DIN 2019-1 ombrukket3.qxp_DIN 05.08.2019 15:31 Side 35 1/2019 Paver og prester i South Park Hva formidler serien om katolisisme? AV JANE SKJOLDLI Tidligere forskning på South Park og religion har basert seg på en grunn- leggende antakelse om at denne serien fremmer sekulær humanisme. Denne artikkelen kritiserer dette premisset. Basert på en sammenstilling av seks episoder som fokuserer på katolisisme og/eller inneholder karakterer som er basert på historiske paveskikkelser (“Do the Handicapped Go to Hell?”, “Red Hot Catholic Love”, “Bloody Mary”, “Fantastic Easter Special”, “The Hobbit”, “A Boy and His Priest”), argumenterer jeg for at seriens portrettering av katolisismen er mye mer balansert, og at den i tillegg pro- moterer verdier som kommer til syne dersom vi betrakter den fra Nancy Ammernanns perspektiv og anvender hennes begrep om «golden rule Christianity» (1997). Nøkkelord: pave, katolisisme, South Park, satire, Golden Rule Chris- tianity, anti-katolisisme Siden 1997 har Trey Parker og Matt Stones animasjonsserie South Park smykket skjermer verden over med sin skarpe satire servert via papp- dukkeaktige figurer. Serien har rettet skyts mot historiske og samtidige offentlige personer, kulturelle trender, politiske partier, institusjoner og, ikke minst, religiøse forestillinger, tradisjoner og grupper. Temaet religion er så fremtredende i serien at enkelte beskriver den som religionsfiksert (DeLashmutt og Hancock 2008:176). Hva kan vi lære om hva South Park gjør med religion dersom vi ser nærmere på hvordan serien behandler pavefigurer og andre katolikker i episoder hvor katolisisme blir tematisert?

  • An Abstract of the Thesis Of
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF William Robert Holderness for the degree of Master of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies in Speech Communication, Political Science and Speech Communication presented on June 8, 2010. Title: Why We Worship the Economy: A Burkean Analysis of South Park‘s ―Margaritaville‖ Abstract approved: _________________________________________________ Robert S. Iltis The television show South Park, created by Trey Parker and Matt Stone, is viewed by millions of people each week, regularly addresses a number of controversial issues and plays a major role in contemporary popular culture. Current academic research acknowledges Parker and Stone‘s willingness to attack the dominant views surrounding a number of political and social issues. This research also identifies a number of rhetorical devices used in making these attacks. This thesis attempts to reconcile these rhetorical devices with the use of incongruity. Through an interdisciplinary approach to theories on decision making and through applying Burke‘s concepts of perspective by incongruity, master tropes and frames of acceptance and rejection, this thesis analyzes the South Park episode ―Margaritaville.‖ The question that is the focus of this thesis is: How does ―Margaritaville‖ use planned incongruity to reframe dominant discussions concerning the United States financial crisis? The findings of this study indicate that through the use of Burke‘s master tropes and frames of acceptance and rejection ―Margaritaville‖ both identifies and questions the American public‘s tendency to view the economy as they would a deity. This thesis determines that the episode ―Margaritaville‖ has a positive effect on its ideal audience. Furthermore, this study demonstrates both the importance of developing an interdisciplinary theory of human decision-making and notes the utility of using a similar Burkean analysis to examine primetime, adult-oriented cartoons.

  • Video Reviews 8-24-07.Qxp
    New On Video & DVD Blades of Glory Two comedic heavy hitters, Will Ferrell (Anchorman: The Legend Of Ron Burgundy) and Jon Heder (Napoleon Dynamite), join forces to push the boundaries of slapstick with their ice- skating farce, Blades Of Glory. Rival skaters Chazz Michael Michaels (Ferrell) and Jimmy MacElroy (Heder) begrudgingly set out to attempt a historical comeback in the pair-skating program after being banned in the men’s figure skating category after an unsportsmanlike scuffle. MacElroy’s former coach (Craig T. Nelson) provides them with the tough-love coaching they so desperately need. Despite their absurdity, the duo aren’t previous award winners for nothing, and their combined talent threatens the position of fellow American skating champions--brother and sister pair-skating team Stranz and Fairchild Van Waldenberg, who are played by real-life husband and wife Will Arnett and Amy Poehler. But while Stranz and Fairchild Van Waldenberg may turn on the charm for their adoring public, they reveal their true colors as they connive to sabotage Michaels and MacElroy in their efforts to regain the championship. Ferrell's turn as the loud-talking, ego-swelling, hard-partying sex- addict skater is an abrasive and shrilling contrast to Heder’s innocent, cherub-faced prodigal son. Poehler and Arnett are splendid as the biting antagonists, and demonstrate a masterful understanding of how to portray characters full of spite and self-indulgence. Blades Of Glory is full of gut-busting wisecracks and painfully funny imagery, and will undoubtedly leave fans hoping that Ferrell and Heder will team up again for more hilarity and outlandish entertainment.
