ALL FEATHERS AND ATTITUDE By Virginia A. MacDonald THESIS Submitted to Northern Michigan University In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of MASTER OF FINE ARTS Office of Graduate Education and Research April 2015 SIGNATURE APPROVAL FORM Title of Thesis: ALL FEATHERS AND ATTITUDE This thesis by Virginia A. MacDonald is recommended for approval by the student’s Thesis Committee and Faculty Chair in the Department of English and by the Assistant Provost of Graduate Education and Research. ________________________________________________________________ Committee Chair: Matt Frank Date ________________________________________________________________ First Reader: Daniel Gocella Date ________________________________________________________________ Second Reader: Jon Billman Date _________________________________________________________________ Faculty Chair: Dr. Robert Whalen Date ________________________________________________________________ Dr. Brian D. Cherry Date Assistant Provost of Graduate Education and Research ABSTRACT ALL FEATHERS AND ATTITUDE By Virginia A. MacDonald This collection of essays and prose poems seeks to examine the elements of an identity: how memories, culture, work, place, family, and brain chemistry simultaneously create and undermine a sense of self. How the sense of self is not contiguous, or smooth. How hope and regret wrestle. While deeply personal, All Feathers and Attitude is not a memoir, but rather an assemblage of interpretations based on actual events. The individual pieces are gathered into sections that correlate somewhat to the themes mentioned above, but the sections are not labeled as such. The readers may draw whatever conclusions they wish regarding the sections. Things overlap. i Copyright by Virginia A. MacDonald 2015 ii For Dave, who stayed. iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank the general big-hearted generosity of the Northern Michigan University MFA program, without which I would have floundered. Thanks to my readers, Jon Billman and Dan Gocella (who knows about grouse.) Also Jen Howard, who introduced me to nonfiction and convinced me I could do it, and to Matt Frank, who didn’t let me get away with painting happy little clouds. I would also like to acknowledge the patience and understanding of my coworkers in the Financial Aid Office at NMU. And my children, who taught me to be brave. This thesis follows the format prescribed by the MLA Style Manual and the Department of English. Some of the names have been changed; some of those on purpose. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction

    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.
