  • Death Sentences the Aesthetics and Politics of Last Words in ​In Cold
    Death Sentences The Aesthetics and Politics of Last Words in In Cold Blood, Capote, and Infamous ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Hannah Melville Senior Thesis Department of English Spring 2020 Melville 1 Acknowledgements This thesis was made possible through the help and support of many people. I would like to thank my advisor Lindsay Reckson whose thoughtful feedback and dedication guided me through the process, turning rambling drafts into a coherent work. Professor Gustavus Stadler introduced me to the novel and alerted me to its adaptations. The librarians at Haverford College helped me locate texts while on campus and aided me from afar, once I was home. I cannot thank them enough for their devotion to the students at Haverford College in these remarkable circumstances. Julie Hanss motivated me throughout this process, offering an ear whenever I needed to discuss an idea. My suitemates provided endless encouragement. I would also like to thank my family for supporting and accommodating me during this unstable time. Melville 2 When Truman Capote was initially sent to Holcomb, Kansas, in 1959, his assignment was to write an article about a recent murder for The New Yorker (Giordano). Upon his arrival, ​ ​ his inability to control his word count caused the intended article to evolve into the book In Cold ​ Blood. Since its publication in book form in 1966, In Cold Blood has been adapted four times.1 ​ ​ ​ Each adaptation presents different nuances to the story but respects the progression of events within the original text. The narrative unfolds as two men – Perry Smith and Richard “Dick” Hickcock – murder the Clutter family and attempt to evade the police.
