    PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 AND 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized.

D. in Film and Television Studies University of Warwick November 1997 ABSTRACT This thesis examines the ways in which heterosexuality is rendered in the Hollywood genre where its existence is most privileged: musicals of the studio era (c. 1930 - c. 1960). In this popular film category, heterosexuality is expressed in a framework of "boy-meets-girl" amatory coupling that is remarkably amplified and insistent. In analysis that is at once sympathetic and critical of the subject matter, I show that heterosexuality in the Hollywood musical is constructed in a way that is far from monolithic. On the contrary, I find that there are in fact varieties of heterosexual identity that exist in the genre, and that they are most succinctly revealed through romantic engagement. Yet heterosexuality is depicted along divergent formulations owing to contrasting relational aims and assumptions. Building on Richard Dyer's 1993 essay, 'III Seem to Find the Happiness I Seek': Heterosexuality and Dance in the Musical, " I will discuss how the basis of these separate models is traceable to different approaches related to power distributions between men and women.

We understand that every person leaves a unique legacy and that the greatest tribute is not grief but gratitude for a life well lived. We are privileged to have been entrusted by so many families over the years. This Distinguished Residents Book features the biographies and photos of some of those individuals whose legacies have impacted our lives 2 and helped to shape our culture and our community. It has been created to honor their memory and to inspire generations by their extraordinary accomplishments, tenacity and philanthropy. There are stars whose brightness is visible on earth although they have long burned out. There are people whose brilliance continues to light the world though they are no longer among the living. These lights are particularly bright when the night is dark. They light the way for us all.

  • Abstract Femme Fem(Me)Ininities
    ABSTRACT FEMME FEM(ME)ININITIES: A PERFORMATIVE QUEERING by Erin Douglas Throughout my thesis I explore alternative fem(me)ininities. Such femmes re-signify femininity by means of disidentification and parody and in turn trouble notions of authenticity. Queer fem(me)inities critique heteronormative conceptions of femininity and sexuality. The texts and theories that I use to inform my theoretical framework of fem(me)ininities are: beside in Eve Kosofsky’s Touching Feeling, Judith Halberstam’s theories of minority femininities and masculinities in Female Masculinity, disidetification in Leslie Feinberg’s Stone Butch Blues, queer parody in Mabel Maney’s Kiss the Girls and Make Them Spy, S/M in Sarah Water’s Tipping the Velvet, and the troubling of authenticity in Showtime’s television series The L Word. This project is an exploration of alternative gender and sexuality performances. The queer theoretical frameworks from Judith Butler, Judith Halberstam, José Esteban Muñoz, Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick, and Ann Cvetkovich have been integral to my theory of femme fem(me)ininities.
