Predominantly, the issues stem from a lack of understanding of the marketplace and ambiguous goals within the Main Street program. The economy of downtown Harrison has suffered due to these deficiencies.

  • Performing the Erotic
    Performing the erotic: (Re)presenting the body in popular culture by Dionne van Reenen Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements in respect of the doctoral degree qualification Doctor of Philosophy with specialisation in English in the Department of English Faculty of Humanities at the University of the Free State Bloemfontein Submission date: 28 June 2019 Supervisor: Prof. S.A. Tate, Canada Research Chair Tier 1 in Feminism and Intersectionality, University of Alberta, Canada. Co-supervisors: Prof. H.J. Strauss, Chair: English Department, University of the Free State, South Africa; and Dr M.M. Mwaniki, Visiting Associate, University of the Witwatersrand, South Africa. I, Dionne van Reenen, declare that the research dissertation that I herewith submit for the doctoral degree qualification Doctor of Philosophy with specialisation in English (ENGD9100) at the University of the Free State is my independent work, and that I have not previously submitted it for a qualification at another institution of higher education. Signed: __________________ Date: 19 June 2019 iii Abstract In 1995, Mitchell suggested that spheres of public culture, and the academies that study them, are in the midst of a ‘pictorial turn’ which entails thinking about images in digital communication and mass multimedia as forms of life. In the study reported in this thesis, a critical semiotic analysis of mainstream, moving images that are designed, performed, mediated, and repeatable was conducted. The study focuses on the role of social constructs of gender, race, and class (along with size, age, and ability) in the ordering processes of society which are, in turn, sustained and reproduced by the (re)presentation of eroticised bodies in visual media in the twenty- first century.

    QUESTIONS OF PRACTICE Commence to Dancing By David Vaughan Introduced by Alastair Macaulay THE PEW CENTER FOR ARTS & HERITAGE / PCAH.US / @PEWCENTER_ARTS Commence to Dancing The Senior CriTics AwArd, delivered By David VaughAn at The DanCe CriTics AssoCiation at DanCe new AmsterdAm, new york CiTy, on 17 June 2007 Introduction by Alastair Macaulay This is the Dance Critics’ Association; and I hope that many of you here first got to know David the way I did—by reading him in print. In 1965, he was a founding figure at Ballet Review and, alone of that magazine’s founders, he still contributes regularly to it. In fact, its “Annals of The Sleeping Beauty” department would scarcely exist without him. For many years, he was the Financial Times’s distinguished New York dance correspondent. His book Merce Cunningham: Fifty Years (Aperture, 2005) is indispensable to anyone writing on the subject, and I say that as someone who has sometimes groaned at its sheer weight across my knees. I myself came to know him through his book Frederick Ashton and His Ballets (A & C Black, 1977)—“the Ashton book,” as it was known for many years. For me, this came at an opportune moment: I was twenty-two, and the two Royal Ballet companies staged an unusually large number of Ashton ballets in the year it was published. I had read the book from cover to cover the moment it came out; then I read it again from cover to cover; and then, every time I went to see any Ashton performance, I would read the relevant section both before setting out and then on returning home.
