Comics Literacy and Multimodal Pedagogy BECAUSE COMICS: COMICS LITERACY AND MULTIMODAL PEDAGOGY A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the North Dakota State University of Agriculture and Applied Science By Shane Anthony Gomes In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Major Program: Rhetoric, Writing and Culture June 2020 Fargo, North Dakota North Dakota State University Graduate School Title Because Comics: Comics Literacy and Multimodal Pedagogy By Shane Anthony Gomes The Supervisory Committee certifies that this disquisition complies with North Dakota State University’s regulations and meets the accepted standards for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY SUPERVISORY COMMITTEE: Emily Wicktor Chair Lisa Arnold Alison Graham-Bertolini Michael Strand Approved: July 10, 2020 Stephenson J. Beck Date Department Chair ABSTRACT How and what we teach in the post-secondary English classroom has tremendous power, both regarding individual students and larger contexts in which they function. As post-secondary instructors, our pedagogical approach to our subjects can impact our student’s abilities and experiences directly through interactions with texts, and also impact our specific institutions, our academic disciplines, and larger social structures. This project will propose what is best termed a disruptive pedagogy, founded in comics literacy, and a primary goal is to effect change in the classroom and therefore in our students’ later social and professional contexts. Increasingly, what we teach in English classrooms is moving towards a pedagogy of multimodality that reflects the contexts of our students outside of the classroom. Multimodal researchers Jennifer Rowsell and Eryn Decoste state that “To expand notions of composition, there is a need to not only introduce other modes such as visuals, sounds and interactive modes, but also develop frameworks, activities and lesson ideas to actually teach other modes of representation and expression” (246-247). Yet, as they mention, this isn’t always easy or even possible. But an additional issue is that multimodality can elide the discussion of narrative, one of the key affordances of the English classroom. Further, much emphasis in multimodal pedagogies is on technology, which access to the needed technology is not universal. Focusing education tactics in the context of internet enabled classrooms will necessarily leave some populations behind To address these two issues, this project works to propose a multimodal pedagogy that uses comics as an ideal narrative multimodal medium. By fitting comics into the framework of multimodal education in post-secondary classrooms, this dissertation demonstrates the potential of the medium. Therefore, the focus of this project is on building a multimodal pedagogy for iii comics. By focusing on the methods by which comics create, this dissertation proposes a formalized way to use them as a foundation of a pedagogy that builds student’s multimodal literacy. A standard for deploying these texts has yet to calcify, meaning that current research can impact multimodal teaching substantially in the future. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT ................................................................................................................................... iii LIST OF FIGURES ...................................................................................................................... vii CHAPTER 1: COMICS STUDIES AND COMICS IN THE CLASSROOM ............................... 1 What’s Wrong With How We Teach Comics ...................................................................... 5 What’s Wrong With Comics Studies ................................................................................. 13 CHAPTER 2: COMICS AND THE SPONSORSHIP OF MULTIMODAL LITERACY........... 26 Breaking Down Comics ..................................................................................................... 33 A Comics Perspective on Multimodal Instruction ............................................................. 39 Combining Comics and Multimodal Pedagogy ................................................................. 44 CHAPTER 3: COMICS, DISCOURSE, AND MULTIMODAL ASSESSMENT ...................... 57 CHAPTER 4: THE CRITICAL APPARATUS ............................................................................ 73 The Multiframe ................................................................................................................... 79 Styles of Discourse ............................................................................................................. 80 Iconic Solidarity ................................................................................................................. 88 The Word Balloon .............................................................................................................. 89 Intrapanel Multimodal Analysis and the Channels of Meaning ......................................... 90 The Auditory Channel of Meaning ....................................................................... 91 The Gestural Channel of Meaning ........................................................................ 94 The Spatial Channel of Meaning .......................................................................... 95 CHAPTER 5: THE COMICS ..................................................................................................... 100 Arkham Asylum ............................................................................................................... 101 Beautiful Darkness ........................................................................................................... 112 Maus ................................................................................................................................. 119 From Hell ......................................................................................................................... 128 v Days of Future Past .......................................................................................................... 134 CHAPTER 6: THE SYLLABUS ................................................................................................ 145 WORKS CITED ......................................................................................................................... 177 APPENDIX A: SYLLABUS FOR ENGL XXX, MULTIMODAL LITERATURE AND COMPOSITION ......................................................................................................................... 192 APPENDIX B: MAJOR ASSIGNMENT 1 ................................................................................ 199 APPENDIX C: ASSIGNMENTS FOR PRIMARY TEXT 1, ARKHAM ASYLUM (WEEK 6) 202 APPENDIX D: ASSIGNMENTS FOR PRIMARY TEXT 2, FROM HELL (WEEKS 7-8) ..... 204 APPENDIX E: ASSIGNMENTS FOR PRIMARY TEXT 3, MAUS (WEEKS 9-10)............... 205 APPENDIX F: ASSIGNMENTS FOR PRIMARY TEXT 4, BEAUTIFUL DARKNESS (WEEK 11) ................................................................................................................................. 207 APPENDIX G: ASSIGNMENTS FOR PRIMARY TEXT 5, UNCANNY X-MEN #141-142, DAYS OF FUTURE PAST (WEEKS 12-14) ............................................................. 209 APPENDIX H: MAJOR ASSIGNMENT 2 (WEEK 15) ........................................................... 213 APPENDIX I: FINAL PROJECT (WEEKS 16-17) ................................................................... 216 vi LIST OF FIGURES Figure Page 1.

  • Toward an Aesthetics and Politics of Guilt in American
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Responsibility, Freedom, and the State: Toward an Aesthetics and Politics of Guilt in American Literature, 1929-1960 A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Comparative Literature by Timothy Jeffrey Haehn 2014 © Copyright by Timothy Jeffrey Haehn 2014 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Responsibility, Freedom, and the State: Toward an Aesthetics and Politics of Guilt in American Literature, 1929-1960 By Timothy Jeffrey Haehn Doctor of Philosophy in Comparative Literature University of California, Los Angeles, 2014 Professor Eleanor K. Kaufman, Chair This dissertation proposes a fundamental reassessment of guilt in twentieth-century American literature. I claim that guilt ought to be understood not so much in relation to the Holocaust or the history of U.S. race relations as in relation to the state. In readings of Mary McCarthy, Richard Wright, J. D. Salinger, Arthur Miller, and Saul Bellow, as well as the early Superman comics and fiction and criticism that invoke Fyoder Dostoevsky’s work, this project demonstrates how authors of fiction and popular culture mobilize feelings of responsibility and guilt to symbolize anxieties over the diminished role of the state as a vehicle for public relief. As the federal government jettisoned burdens that it had borne since the Depression, the writers in question depict various mechanisms employed by individuals to absorb state burdens and to compensate for the reduced availability of state-backed relief. With renewed emphasis on existential categories such as guilt, freedom, and anxiety, I trace tensions at the core of mid- twentieth-century narratives that situate them squarely within the problematics of antistatism.

    A R C H O N S HIDDEN RULERS THROUGH THE AGES A R C H O N S HIDDEN RULERS THROUGH THE AGES WATCH THIS IMPORTANT VIDEO UFOs, Aliens, and the Question of Contact MUST-SEE THE OCCULT REASON FOR PSYCHOPATHY Organic Portals: Aliens and Psychopaths KNOWLEDGE THROUGH GNOSIS Boris Mouravieff - GNOSIS IN THE BEGINNING ...1 The Gnostic core belief was a strong dualism: that the world of matter was deadening and inferior to a remote nonphysical home, to which an interior divine spark in most humans aspired to return after death. This led them to an absorption with the Jewish creation myths in Genesis, which they obsessively reinterpreted to formulate allegorical explanations of how humans ended up trapped in the world of matter. The basic Gnostic story, which varied in details from teacher to teacher, was this: In the beginning there was an unknowable, immaterial, and invisible God, sometimes called the Father of All and sometimes by other names. “He” was neither male nor female, and was composed of an implicitly finite amount of a living nonphysical substance. Surrounding this God was a great empty region called the Pleroma (the fullness). Beyond the Pleroma lay empty space. The God acted to fill the Pleroma through a series of emanations, a squeezing off of small portions of his/its nonphysical energetic divine material. In most accounts there are thirty emanations in fifteen complementary pairs, each getting slightly less of the divine material and therefore being slightly weaker. The emanations are called Aeons (eternities) and are mostly named personifications in Greek of abstract ideas.

While it is obvious. that these comic books can be used in the classroom as a source of reading material, it is tot so obvious that these comic books, with great economy, simplicity, and narrative density, can be used to further introduce novice readers to the techniques found in narrative and to the terms employed in the study and discussion of a narrative. The output of the Marvel Conics Group in particular is literate, is both narratively and pbSlosophically sophisticated, and is ethically and morally responsible. Some of the narrative tecbntques found in the stories, such as the Spider-Man episodes, include foreshadowing, a dramatic fiction narrator, flashback, irony, symbolism, metaphor, Biblical and historical allusions, and mythological allusions.4MKM1 4 4 *********************************************************************** * Reproductions supplied by EDRS are the best that can be made * * from the original document. * *********************************************************************** ) U SOEPANTMENTO, HEALD..
