  • Author-As-Franchise-Product: Edgar Rice Burroughs Inc and Tarzan As Historical Branded Entertainment
    53 Chapter 3 Author-as-Franchise-Product: Edgar Rice Burroughs Inc and Tarzan as Historical Branded Entertainment Matthew Freeman University of Nottingham, UK ABSTRACT This chapter explores the historical relationship between the branded media entertainment of Tarzan and the rise of consumer culture in the 1920s and 1930s. It argues that the transmedia licensing of this property across pulp magazines, comics, and radio reflected the growing embrace of brand-franchise logics throughout the business landscape of America at that time. I offer the metaphor of ‘stepping stones’ to understand the brand linkages between these different media products in which consumption of one product led to the consumption of another. More importantly, I analyse the function of Tarzan creator Edgar Rice Burroughs and his company, suggesting that his visibility as franchise-author played a crucial role in constructing these brand linkages between media products. Contextualised as part of the very different cultural landscape of 1920s and 1930s consumer culture, I demonstrate how an autho- rial name operated commercially as much as a corporatised component of the branded entertainment products of Tarzan as the Tarzan character himself. INTRODUCTION By 1975, Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc., a family-owned corporation founded in March 1923, was reported to be earning in the region of $1 million annually from the sales of texts and products based on the fic- tional character Tarzan. ‘The world-wide gross of Tarzan products sold under license to us is at least $50 million a year,’ asserted Robert M. Hodes, the man in charge of the Tarzan empire at that time (The New York Times, 1975, p.

    The Jungle Tales Of Tarzan Written in 1919 by Edgar Rice Burroughs (1875-1950) This version originally published in 2005 by Infomotions, Inc. This document is distributed under the GNU Public License. 1 2 Table of contents Chapter 1 - Tarzan's First Love Chapter 2 - The Capture of Tarzan Chapter 3 - The Fight for the Balu Chapter 4 - The God of Tarzan Chapter 5 - Tarzan and the Black Boy Chapter 6 - The Witch-Doctor Seeks Vengeance Chapter 7 - The End of Bukawai Chapter 8 - Lion Chapter 9 - The Nightmare Chapter 10 - Battle for Teeka Chapter 11 - A Jungle Joke Chapter 12 - Rescues the Moon 3 4 Chapter 1 - Tarzan's First Love Teeka, stretched at luxurious ease in the shade of the tropical forest, presented, unquestionably, a most alluring picture of young, feminine loveliness. Or at least so thought Tarzan of the Apes, who squatted upon a low-swinging branch in a near-by tree and looked down upon her. Just to have seen him there, lolling upon the swaying bough of the jungle-forest giant, his brown skin mottled by the brilliant equatorial sunlight which percolated through the leafy canopy of green above him, his clean-limbed body relaxed in graceful ease, his shapely head partly turned in contemplative absorption and his intelligent, gray eyes dreamily devouring the object of their devotion, you would have thought him the reincarnation of some demigod of old. You would not have guessed that in infancy he had suckled at the breast of a hideous, hairy she-ape, nor that in all his conscious past since his parents had passed away in the little cabin by the landlocked harbor at the jungle's verge, he had known no other associates than the sullen bulls and the snarling cows of the tribe of Kerchak, the great ape.

  • First Sound Cachet” by Gladys West-Jones
    The Making of the “First Sound Cachet” By Gladys West-Jones As a child growing up in the deep south of Natchez, Mississippi, I recall that there weren’t a lot of televisions in the black community, and the one we had was black and white. This was an era when playing outside, making up games, and smelling like sunshine were the epitome of being a kid. You see, I was a tomboy who loved the outdoors and climbing trees. I also loved watching TV, and one of my favorite shows was “Tarzan”. I never missed an episode. When I learned that the Edgar Rice Burroughs stamp was being issued, and that he was the creator of “Tarzan”, my motivation for making a cachet was as strong as a rabid dog. As my mentor, Florence “Via” Villaseñor, has taught me, before you make a cachet, you study your subject by doing a lot of research. So, that’s what I did. I wanted to capture in my cover the essence of Tarzan, the “King of the Jungle”. With all that I wanted to do, I realized that it would take more than one cover. I started with wanting to know all of the actors who played Tarzan on television and in the movies. I discovered that there were 23. So I decided to write about all of them including where they are today. Second, I wanted to know more about Edgar Rice Burroughs. Having just seen the movie “John Carter of Mars”, and hearing the advertisers say that it took Burroughs 100 years to produce, I wanted to know what else Burroughs had accomplished.

  • Animated Stereotypes –
    Animated Stereotypes – An Analysis of Disney’s Contemporary Portrayals of Race and Ethnicity Alexander Lindgren, 36761 Pro gradu-avhandling i engelska språket och litteraturen Handledare: Jason Finch Fakulteten för humaniora, psykologi och teologi Åbo Akademi 2020 ÅBO AKADEMI – FACULTY OF ARTS, PSYCHOLOGY AND THEOLOGY Abstract for Master’s Thesis Subject: English Language and Literature Author: Alexander Lindgren Title: Animated Stereotypes – An Analysis of Disney’s Contemporary Portrayals of Race and Ethnicity Supervisor: Jason Finch Abstract: Walt Disney Animation Studios is currently one of the world’s largest producers of animated content aimed at children. However, while Disney often has been associated with themes such as childhood, magic, and innocence, many of the company’s animated films have simultaneously been criticized for their offensive and quite problematic take on race and ethnicity, as well their heavy reliance on cultural stereotypes. This study aims to evaluate Disney’s portrayals of racial and ethnic minorities, as well as determine whether or not the nature of the company’s portrayals have become more culturally sensitive with time. To accomplish this, seven animated feature films produced by Disney were analyzed. These analyses are of a qualitative nature, with a focus on imagology and postcolonial literary theory, and the results have simultaneously been compared to corresponding criticism and analyses by other authors and scholars. Based on the overall results of the analyses, it does seem as if Disney is becoming more progressive and culturally sensitive with time. However, while most of the recent films are free from the clearly racist elements found in the company’s earlier productions, it is quite evident that Disney still tends to rely heavily on certain cultural stereotypes.

  • The Tarzan Series of Edgar Rice Burroughs
    I The Tarzan Series of Edgar Rice Burroughs: Lost Races and Racism in American Popular Culture James R. Nesteby Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree in Doctor of Philosophy August 1978 Approved: © 1978 JAMES RONALD NESTEBY ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ¡ ¡ in Abstract The Tarzan series of Edgar Rice Burroughs (1875-1950), beginning with the All-Story serialization in 1912 of Tarzan of the Apes (1914 book), reveals deepseated racism in the popular imagination of early twentieth-century American culture. The fictional fantasies of lost races like that ruled by La of Opar (or Atlantis) are interwoven with the realities of racism, particularly toward Afro-Americans and black Africans. In analyzing popular culture, Stith Thompson's Motif-Index of Folk-Literature (1932) and John G. Cawelti's Adventure, Mystery, and Romance (1976) are utilized for their indexing and formula concepts. The groundwork for examining explanations of American culture which occur in Burroughs' science fantasies about Tarzan is provided by Ray R. Browne, publisher of The Journal of Popular Culture and The Journal of American Culture, and by Gene Wise, author of American Historical Explanations (1973). The lost race tradition and its relationship to racism in American popular fiction is explored through the inner earth motif popularized by John Cleves Symmes' Symzonla: A Voyage of Discovery (1820) and Edgar Allan Poe's The narrative of A. Gordon Pym (1838); Burroughs frequently uses the motif in his perennially popular romances of adventure which have made Tarzan of the Apes (Lord Greystoke) an ubiquitous feature of American culture.

Don't you remember Kitty Krause?" "O-oh, yes; now I recall her. But she went with an older crowd." "Yes, she's a full generation ahead of us; but Kitty'd like to forget that and have everyone else forget it." "Let's see—she married Peters, the cotton king, didn't she?" "Yes, and when he died he left her so many millions she didn't have enough fingers to count 'em on; so the poor woman will never know how rich she is." "Is that her son with her?" "Son, my dear! That's her new husband." "Husband? Why, she's old enough to—" "Yes, of course; but you see he's a prince, and Kitty always was— er—well, ambitious."

  • Tarzan and the Golden Lion (810.82 B972 1924A)
    What the Footprints Told 51 opposite side of the clearing, while the bulls, bris«. tling and growling, faced the intruder. “ Come,” cried Tarzan, “ do you not know me? I am Tarzan of the Apes, friend of the Mangani, son of Kala, and king of the tribe of Kerchak.” “We know you,” growled one of the old bulls; “ yesterday we saw you when you killed Gobu. Go away or we shall kill you.” “ I did not kill Gobu,” replied the ape-man. “ I found his dead body yesterday and I was following the spoor of his slayer, when I came upon you.” “ We saw you,” repeated the old bull; “ go away or we shall kill you. You are no longer the friend of the Mangani.” The ape-man stood with brows contracted in thought. It was evident that these apes really believed that they had seen him kill their fellow. What was the explanation? How could it be ac¬ counted for? Did the naked footprints of the great white man whom he had been following mean more, then, than he had guessed? Tarzan wondered. He raised his eyes and again addressed the bulls. “It was not I who killed Gobu,” he insisted. “ Many of you have known me all your lives. You know that only in fair fight, as one bull fights another, have I ever killed a Mangani. You know that, of all the jungle people, the Mangani are my best friends, and that Tarzan of the Apes is the best friend the Mangani have. How, then, could I slay one of my own people? ”.

  • Once Upon an Ecological Dream
    Once Upon an Ecological Dream Anthropomorphism and the Phenomenon of ‘human interference’ with Nature/nature in the Disney films Bambi (1942), The Jungle Book (1967), The Fox and the Hound (1981), Tarzan (1999), Finding Nemo (2003) and Brother Bear (2003) Reena Leek Supervisor: Dr. C. Lord 10195904 Second reader: Dr. F.A.M. Laeven [email protected] Media Studies: Film Studies Word Count: 23549 University of Amsterdam Date: 24 June 2016 ABSTRACT The Walt Disney Company has a substantial influence on multiple generations, which could be utilized for a good cause. Therefore I will discover that animated Disney features that portray slightly anthropomorphic animals in their natural habitat can be read as ecological films. Most Disney films carry environmental messages as anti- hunting or anti-domestication when the films are analysed through ecological theories combined with a new media theory and concepts considering spectator engagement. Bambi and Finding Nemo are films that contain a sense of immediacy and therefore their respectively anti-hunting and anti-domestication messages are apparent. This immediacy misses in The Jungle Book, however through a sense of place this can still be seen as an ecological film, with a minor message of preservation. Tarzan bears an anti-hunting message through the anthropological machine and the immediacy of the film. This same anti-hunting message is perceived in The Fox and the Hound, although less apparent due to the lack of immediacy. The last film is Brother Bear although there is a self-reflexive element in this film, the anti-hunting message is not perceived due to the lack of Nature as an ideal.
