This educational model is receiving a good deal of at- tention from the primary to the tertiary sector in education and the cover-term which has now established itself for this in Europe is CLIL (for Content and Language Integrated Learning). The motivation for introducing this new format into the VIEWZ-universe was to increase the immediate visibility of a currently very lively research scene in applied linguistics by exploiting the speed of our publication chan- nel. All contributions are reports on work in progress presented at confer- ences and workshops in the summer of 2006. This special issue has been ed- ited by a member of our editorial team in collaboration with an external scholar, Tarja Nikula from the University of Jyväskylä. If this special issue meets with positive reactions from our readers, this may well be the first in a series: as always, we invite you to ‘give us your views’ THE EDITORS VIEWS 15(3) 3 CONTENTS INTRODUCTION......................................................................................... -

View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by British Columbia's network of post-secondary digital repositories BLOCKING THE SCHOOL PLAY: US, JAPANESE, AND UK TELEVISUAL HIGH SCHOOLS, SPATIALITY, AND THE CONSTRUCTION OF TEEN IDENTITY by Jennifer Bomford B.A., University of Northern British Columbia, 1999 THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN ENGLISH UNIVERSITY OF NORTHERN BRITISH COLUMBIA August 2016 © Jennifer Bomford, 2016 ABSTRACT School spaces differ regionally and internationally, and this difference can be seen in television programmes featuring high schools. As television must always create its spaces and places on the screen, what, then, is the significance of the varying emphases as well as the commonalities constructed in televisual high school settings in UK, US, and Japanese television shows? This master’s thesis considers how fictional televisual high schools both contest and construct national identity. In order to do this, it posits the existence of the televisual school story, a descendant of the literary school story. It then compares the formal and narrative ways in which Glee (2009-2015), Hex (2004-2005), and Ouran koukou hosutobu (2006) deploy space and place to create identity on the screen. In particular, it examines how heteronormativity and gender roles affect the abilities of characters to move through spaces, across boundaries, and gain secure places of their own. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS Abstract ii Table of Contents iii Acknowledgement v Introduction Orientation 1 Space and Place in Schools 5 Schools on TV 11 Schools on TV from Japan, 12 the U.S., and the U.K. -

Queer Identities and Glee
IDENTITY AND SOLIDARITY IN ONLINE COMMUNITIES: QUEER IDENITIES AND GLEE Katie M. Buckley A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Music August 2014 Committee: Katherine Meizel, Advisor Kara Attrep Megan Rancier © 2014 Katie Buckley All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Katherine Meizel, Advisor Glee, a popular FOX television show that began airing in 2009, has continuously pushed the limits of what is acceptable on American television. This musical comedy, focusing on a high school glee club, incorporates numerous stereotypes and real-world teenage struggles. This thesis focuses on the queer characteristics of four female personalities: Santana, Brittany, Coach Beiste, and Coach Sue. I investigate how their musical performances are producing a constructive form of mass media by challenging hegemonic femininity through camp and by producing relatable queer female role models. In addition, I take an ethnographic approach by examining online fan blogs from the host site Tumblr. By reading the blogs as a digital archive and interviewing the bloggers, I show the positive and negative effects of an online community and the impact this show has had on queer girls, allies, and their worldviews. iv This work is dedicated to any queer human being who ever felt alone as a teenager. v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to extend my greatest thanks to my teacher and advisor, Dr. Meizel, for all of her support through the writing of this thesis and for always asking the right questions to keep me thinking. I would also like to thank Dr. -

Kurt Hummel’s Language Features in Glee Television Series Season 1: A Sociolinguistic Analysis. Yogyakarta: English Language Education Study Program, Sanata Dharma University. The use of language by individuals is influenced by many factors. Gender is one factor that influences the use of language. In this research, gender is seen to be different from sex. It is seen as a social construction rather than as a fixed category. As a result, women and men do not stick to one language style but change it based on their social context. Therefore, the researcher was interested in analyzing the women’s language used by a feminine man named Kurt Hummel in Glee Television Series Season 1. In conducting the research, a research question was formulated: What women’s language features does Kurt Hummel use in his speech in Glee Television Series Season 1? The research was qualitative research in which discourse analysis was employed to analyze the data. -

The Effacement of History, Theatricality and Postmodern Urban Fantasies in the Prose of Petrusµevskaja and Pelevin
Die Welt der Slaven LIV, 2009, xxx-yyy. THE EFFACEMENT OF HISTORY, THEATRICALITY AND POSTMODERN URBAN FANTASIES IN THE PROSE OF PETRUSµEVSKAJA AND PELEVIN To discuss Russian contemporary fiction in terms of postmodernist poetics might be seen as problematic, even though some scholars have en- thusiastically attempted to do just this in the last decade. Marjorie Perloff has warned that comparisons between American and Russian new litera- tures should be approached with caution, given the enormous political, social and cultural differences between the two countries over the past century and “the long midcentury hiatus of the Stalinist years”, which largely suppressed the modernist tradition to which contemporary devel- opments are supposedly ‘post’ (Perloff 1993, 2). Linda Hutcheon, a leading theorist of postmodernist literature, also believes that postmodernism and the contemporary are not interchangeable and suggests that in being pri- marily European and American (North and South), postmodernist culture is not an international cultural phenomenon (Hutcheon 1988, 4). By con- trast, Richard Rorty views postmodernism as a world-wide cultural phe- nomenon that threatens to become a new grand narrative in its own right (Rorty 1997). Despite these uncertainties over the nature of postmodernist culture, it is important to look at the evolution of postmodern condition in the context of Russian contemporary culture. It will be argued below that both Ljudmila Petrusˇevskaja (born 1938) and Viktor Pelevin (born 1962), two of the most prominent contemporary Russian writers, use the same strategies to call into question modernism’s faith in the grand narratives of historical meaning. As will be demonstrated below, both Petrusˇevskaja and Pelevin actively engage their audience into the postmodern process of reassessment of the conventions, structures and clichés of narrative itself, highlighting thereby that their goal departs from the realists’ aim to clarify the world for their readers. -
Expressive Character Identity of Teen Lesbian Characters on Glee & Pretty
Expressive character identity of teen lesbian characters on Glee & Pretty Little Liars Master’s thesis Elisa Rahikainen University of Jyväskylä Department of language and communication studies English Autumn 2017 JYVÄSKYLÄN YLIOPISTO Tiedekunta – Faculty Laitos – Department Humanistis-yhteiskuntatieteellinen tiedekunta Kieli- ja viestintätieteiden laitos Tekijä – Author Elisa Rahikainen Työn nimi – Title Expressive character identity of teen lesbian characters on ‘Glee’ & ‘Pretty Little Liars’ Oppiaine – Subject Työn laji – Level Englannin kieli Maisterin tutkielma Aika – Month and year Sivumäärä – Number of pages Lokakuu 2017 97 Tiivistelmä – Abstract Seksuaalivähemmistöjen asema heteronormatiivisessa yhteiskunnassa on puhututtanut ahkerasti muutaman viime vuosikymmenen aikana. Globaalisti seksuaalivähemmistöjä laajalle yleisölle ovat tehneet tutuiksi populaarikulttuuriset valtavirtasisällöt kuten amerikkalaiset elokuvat ja televisiosarjat. Monet nuoret, jotka vasta rakentavat omaa seksuaali-identiteettiään, ammentavat vaikutteita näistä sisällöistä, erityisesti heidän ikäryhmilleen kohdistetuista tuotannoista kuten nuorten sarjoista. Siten on tarpeellista tutkia seksuaalivähemmistöjä edustavien fiktiivisten hahmojen kokonaisvaltaisia representaatioita suosittujen amerikkalaisten nuorten sarjojen kontekstissa ja päivittää tutkimus 1990-luvulta nykypäivää heijastavaksi. Tässä tutkielmassa tarkastelun kohteena ovat nuorten sarjoissa Glee ja Valehtelevat viettelijät (eng. Pretty Little Liars) esiintyvät lesbohahmot Santana Lopez ja Emily
