  • Race, Migration, and Chinese and Irish Domestic Servants in the United States, 1850-1920
    An Intimate World: Race, Migration, and Chinese and Irish Domestic Servants in the United States, 1850-1920 A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Andrew Theodore Urban IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Advised by Donna Gabaccia and Erika Lee June 2009 © Andrew Urban, 2009 Acknowledgements While I rarely discussed the specifics of my dissertation with my fellow graduate students and friends at the University of Minnesota – I talked about basically everything else with them. No question or topic was too large or small for conversations that often carried on into the wee hours of the morning. Caley Horan, Eric Richtmyer, Tim Smit, and Aaron Windel will undoubtedly be lifelong friends, mahjong and euchre partners, fantasy football opponents, kindred spirits at the CC Club and Mortimer’s, and so on. I am especially grateful for the hospitality that Eric and Tim (and Tank the cat) offered during the fall of 2008, as I moved back and forth between Syracuse and Minneapolis. Aaron and I had the fortune of living in New York City at the same time in our graduate careers, and I have fond memories of our walks around Stuyvesant Park in the East Village and Prospect Park in Brooklyn, and our time spent with the folks of Tuesday night. Although we did not solve all of the world’s problems, we certainly tried. Living in Brooklyn, I also had the opportunity to participate in the short-lived yet productive “Brooklyn Scholars of Domestic Service” (AKA the BSDS crew) reading group with Vanessa May and Lara Vapnek.

  • Mcsorley's: John Sloan's Visual Commentary on Male Bonding, Prohibition, and the Working Class
    McSorley's: John Sloan's Visual Commentary on Male Bonding, Prohibition, and the Working Class Mariea Caudill Dennison The American realist John Sloan (1871-1951) is famous for his depictions of tenement dwellers' private moments, paintings of people on the streets of New York City, and images of women. Here I will focus on the artist's render­ ings of men in two of his well-known paintings of McSorley's, an Irish-Ameri­ can bar. These paintings are best understood within the context of early twenti­ eth-century working class concepts of masculinity, the social history of drinking in the United States, and Sloan's own biography. The artist, a native of Pennsyl­ vania, was brought up in a strict Episcopalian household in which his artisan father was unable to support the family. Young Sloan worked as a Philadelphia newspaper illustrator to provide for his parents and sisters. At the paper's of­ fice, he saw sketch-reporters depict newsworthy events that they had observed earlier in the day, and their methods may have inspired him to establish his habit of working from memory. Although he studied briefly with Thomas Anshutz at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, the young artist was largely self-taught.1 While he dutifully supported his family, Sloan achieved a freer lifestyle by joining a group of young men, many illustrators, who socialized and studied informally under Robert Henri's watchful eye.2 The raucous camaraderie, open discussion, and social freedom that Sloan found in the Philadelphia group con­ trasted sharply with the conservative atmosphere of his family's home.3 The young Philadelphians often gathered at Henri's studio where he encouraged 0026-3079/2006/4702-02352.50/0 American Studies, 47:2 (Summer 2006): 23-38 23 24 Mariea Caudill Dennison them to reject academic idealism and the genteel tradition.

  • Illicit Economies in the Detroit- Windsor Borderland, 1945-1960
    Ambassadors of Pleasure: Illicit Economies in the Detroit- Windsor Borderland, 1945-1960 by Holly Marie Karibo A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy History Department University of Toronto © Copyright by Holly Karibo (2012) Ambassadors of Pleasure: Illicit Economies in the Detroit-Windsor Borderland, 1945-1960 Holly Karibo Doctor of Philosophy History Department University of Toronto 2012 Abstract “Ambassadors of Pleasure” examines the social and cultural history of ‘sin’ in the Detroit-Windsor border region during the post-World War II period. It employs the interrelated frameworks of “borderlands” and “vice” in order to identify the complex ways in which illicit economies shaped—and were shaped by—these border cities. It argues that illicit economies served multiple purposes for members of local borderlands communities. For many downtown residents, vice industries provided important forms of leisure, labor, and diversion in cities undergoing rapid changes. Deeply rooted in local working-class communities, prostitution and heroin economies became intimately intertwined in the daily lives of many local residents who relied on them for both entertainment and income. For others, though, anti-vice activities offered a concrete way to engage in what they perceived as community betterment. Fighting the immoral influences of prostitution and drug use was one way some residents, particularly those of the middle class, worked to improve their local communities in seemingly tangible ways. These II struggles for control over vice economies highlight the ways in which shifting meanings of race, class, and gender, growing divisions between urban centers and suburban regions, and debates over the meaning of citizenship evolved in the urban borderland.

History/Individual Interdisciplinary Program The Forgotten Man: The Rhetorical Construction of Class and Classlessness in Depression Era Media (206 pp.) Co-Directors of Dissertation: Katherine Jellison and Raymie McKerrow The following study is an analysis of visual and narrative cultural discourses during the interwar years of 1920-1941. These years, specifically those of the 1930s, represent a significant transitional point in American history regarding cultural identity and social class formation. This study seeks to present one profile of how the use of media contributed to a mythic cultural identity of the United States as both classless and middle-class simultaneously. The analysis is interdisciplinary by design and purports to highlight interaction between visual and oral rhetorical strategies used to construct and support the complex myths of class as they formed during this period in American history.

  • Going to the Movies: Early Audiences
    1 Going to the Movies: Early Audiences Introduction to Article Movies were a new form of entertainment for a new century of leisure- hungry Americans. As the average work week decreased and wages rose, men and women sought new ways to spend their increased time and money – and entrepreneurs were happy to accommodate them, for a price. In large cities and small towns, the thirst for fun sparked the rise of a wide range of commercial recreations: amusement parks, dance halls, billiard parlors, vaudeville and burlesque houses, and professional sports. But none of these activities was as popular or widespread as the movies. The first nickelodeon – a term that combined the price of admission with the Greek word for theater – was opened in Pittsburgh on June 19, 1905. The low cost of attending this new institution made it accessible to all but the poorest Americans. By 1910, nearly one-third of the nation flocked to the movies each week; by 1920, weekly attendance equaled 50 percent of the nation’s population. People loved the movies. Richard Butsch looks at nickelodeon audiences and describes what it was like to go to the movies during the early years of silent film. He discussesCOPYRIGHTED who went to the movies, what MATERIAL they saw, and what they did. Butsch shows how movie theaters served as community centers for many poor urban residents. Yet, while millions of Americans eagerly Movies and American Society, Second Edition. Edited by Steven J. Ross. © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

  • UNIVERSITY of CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Masculinities at Work
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Masculinities at Work: Men, Masculinities, and Employment in the Spanish Popular Comedies of the Late-Francoist and Transition Eras A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Hispanic Languages and Literatures by Renee Patricia Rivera 2020 © Copyright by Renee Patricia Rivera 2020 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Masculinities at Work: Men, Masculinities, and Employment in the Spanish Popular Comedies of the Late-Francoist and Transition Eras by Renee Patricia Rivera Doctor of Philosophy in Hispanic Languages and Literatures University of California, Los Angeles, 2020 Professor María Teresa de Zubiaurre, Chair This dissertation examines the relationship between masculinities and work as it is represented in the Spanish popular comedies of the 1970s. In such films, work represents an important site of tension, not only in the wider struggle in Spain between tradition and modernity, but also in the context of the nation’s changing economic landscape in the late- Francoist period, which saw capitalist reforms, the development of the tourism industry, and the rise of consumer culture. In the context of late Francoism, particularly, with the advent of capitalist reforms, film directors and screenwriters of the 1970s utilized formulaic plots with work-related narrative conflicts as a convenient means to explore the consequences and effects of Spain’s timid economic and social liberalization. Through my examination of eight popular comedies, produced between 1970 and 1977, I analyze how the filmmakers of the period engage with the issue of work, through the specific generic framework of the comedy, in order to ii interrogate larger structural changes in the national economy, as well as the personal consequences of such transformations at the level of the individual for the Spanish working man.

It treats the nascent genre of films as attempts to recenter white masculinity in the national imagination while navigating the increased visibility of this subject position, one that maintains dominance in society through its invisibility as superordinate standard of manhood.
