For more information go to https://www.abledocs.com Fanwork: Made From Something Different Hannah Orlove [email protected] Watching Deep Space Nine was an exercise in peering around corners and being unable to get a straight-on view of what I knew to be just beyond my field of vision. Not necessarily in terms of the greater world of the Star Trek universe – that I could see much more easily, as DS9 is still the only Star Trek series that took the time to consider what day-to-day life would be like in the greater world of the show outside of Federation starships thanks to it being set on a space station, boldly parking instead of going – but very specifically, in regards to Julian Bashir. The show’s primary medical character, a bright young doctor straight out of Starfleet Academy, who quickly learns there’s more to his mission than he thought while never losing any of his dedication or kindness. I’ve read about Alexander Siddig’s portrayal of Bashir, of his work turning him from someone deliberately unlikable into one of Star Trek’s beloved characters. I’m familiar with Bashir’s backstory and growth, his canonical developmental disorder and his transformation from fresh- faced graduate to hardened, mature officer. And throughout it all, I’ve always wondered, did they mean for him to sound like me? Julian Bashir may have undergone genetic modification treatments at six years old to raise his intelligence and perfect his coordination and reflexes in order to be shaped into the child his parents wished him to be, but he remains disabled in ways that can’t be hidden, no matter how elegantly crafted his public face may be.

This work is licensed to the public under the Creative Commons Attribution License. Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations: Portraits of Individuals With Disabilities in Star Trek Terry L. Shepherd Abstract Weekly television series have more influence on American society than any other form of media, and with many of these series available on DVDs, television series are readily ac- cessible to most consumers. Studying television series provides a unique perspective on society’s view of individuals with disabilities and influences how teachers and peers view students with disabilities. Special education teachers can use select episodes to differenti- ate between the fact and fiction of portrayed individuals with disabilities with their stu- dents, and discuss acceptance of peers with disabilities. With its philosophy of infinite diversity in infinite combinations, Star Trek has portrayed a number of persons with dis- abilities over the last forty years. Examples of select episodes and implications for special education teachers for using Star Trek for instructional purposes through guided viewing are discussed.

  • Class, Race, Gender, the Sociology of DS9.)
    Aliens in decline and socially-ascending humans. (Class, race, gender, the sociology of DS9.) Camille Akmut Abstract A theory is put forward according to which Star Trek’s DS9 is the meeting place of at least two major populations : socially-declining aliens who seek a reclassification through Federation institutions (Starfleet and adjacent agencies in particular), and humans on a late stage upward trajectory (culminating in e.g. dilettante / artist offspring). 1 Introduction : a historical detour Star Trek’s 24th century has more in common with 20th century sociology than might be obvious at first, with its representation of an ideal Earth society where poverty, inequality and resulting conflicts have “long” been eliminated, weare told1. Past faulty government forms and economies have either been replaced by benev- olent scientific exploration (guaranteed, in theory, by both the laws of theFed- eration Charter and the principle of the Prime Directive) or luxury communist leisure (offered to tourists of Risa, where the old philosophical fantasy of“shared wives” has been realized, and two suns always shine); nonetheless these societies continue to answer to most of the rules and laws established by sociologists. Here, the television series DS9 is reinterpreted as meeting place of not humans and aliens - a naive albeit correct description of this work of science fiction - but as two demographics situated in different stages of their social trajectories. In particular, we argue that the contrasting fates of the duo Jake and Nog offers a strong case for such an interpretation. The tragic fall of the House of Mogh is another. Dr. Bashir is a barely veiled second-generation immigrant success story.

  • Major Kira of Star Trek: Ds9: Woman of the Future, Creation of the 90S
    MAJOR KIRA OF STAR TREK: DS9: WOMAN OF THE FUTURE, CREATION OF THE 90S Judith Clemens-Smucker A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS December 2020 Committee: Becca Cragin, Advisor Jeffrey Brown Kristen Rudisill © 2020 Judith Clemens-Smucker All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Becca Cragin, Advisor The 1990s were a time of resistance and change for women in the Western world. During this time popular culture offered consumers a few women of strength and power, including Star Trek: Deep Space Nine’s Major Kira Nerys, a character encompassing a complex personality of non-traditional feminine identities. As the first continuing character in the Star Trek franchise to serve as a female second-in-command, Major Kira spoke to women of the 90s through her anger, passion, independence, and willingness to show compassion and love when merited. In this thesis I look at the building blocks of Major Kira to discover how it was possible to create a character in whom viewers could see the future as well as the current and relatable decade of the 90s. By laying out feminisms which surround 90s television and using original interviews with Nana Visitor, who played Major Kira, and Marvin Rush, the Director of Photography on DS9, I examine the creation of Major Kira from her conception to her realization. I finish by using historical and cognitive poetics to analyze both the pilot episode “Emissary” and the season one episode “Duet,” which introduce Major Kira and display character growth.

  • The Mineralogy of Star Trek: the Next Series
    The Mineralogy of Star Trek: The Next Series Jeffrey de Fourestier, MSM, FMinSoc Ottawa, Canada [email protected] “I’m a doctor, not a coal miner.” (Dr Leonard McCoy, 1967). _____________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION In 2005, The Mineralogical Record published as the third issue of the first volume of its on-line e- zine the article “The Mineralogy of Star Trek”1. This was the first systematic effort to give an overview of mineralogy as it exists in the imaginary world of Star Trek in all of its manifestations on film and on television. It was also an effort to put together a comprehensive list of materials referred to in the various Star Trek incarnations that either referred to minerals or mined substances (both real and fictitious) and of materials that might be mistaken for minerals as their names ended with the suffix “ite”. The public reaction to the original article was tremendous, even though it had been written for fun and to make sense of what had been presented in the Star Trek world. One intention of the article was to hopefully influence the producers of Star Trek to improve the mineral nomenclature in future episodes. Unfortunately, the last series “Enterprise” was cancelled at about the same time as the article was published. Perhaps this article and the original article will at least influence future series, films or independent writers and gamesters of the Star Trek genre. The task that was undertaken relied on being able to watch over and over again hundreds of hours of episodes and films available for viewing, collect all possible names, identify them and tabulate them.
