An attempt to thank everybody who has been significant along the way of writing this thesis is quite futile. Yet, there are some people whose names cannot be unaddressed. In the first place, I owe a huge amount of thanks to my thesis supervisors, Dr. Núria Casado and Dr. Isabel Santaulària, for their constant support and mentorship of the entire thesis. Thank you both for dedicating your time and patience to synthesise my woolly ideas, to endeavour to read and proofread my numerous draft versions, and to help me to improve the final text. Having invested in me as a student and believed in my potential has made this thesis come into existence and also made me grow in many ways. I am also deeply indebted to the members of the research group, Grup Dedal-Lit, who have introduced me to cultural gerontology. Grup Dedal-Lit members have been important sources of my professional development, encouraging words and inspiration during these last years. I am very fortunate to be able to work with this wonderful group of researchers and to have been given an opportunity to learn from and contribute to the enriching field of ageing studies. I am very thankful to Dr. Thomas Austenfeld, the Professor of American Literature at the University of Fribourg, for his help with the grant application for a four-month PhD scholarship, his expertise knowledge, and his inspiring lectures on American literature during my research stay in Fribourg, Switzerland. Thanks also goes to Dr. Suzanne Bailey, the Professor of English Literature at Trent University, for her rich and insightful comments, a significant exchange of thoughts, and her kind guidance during my short doctoral stay in Peterborough and Toronto, Canada. I should also like to thank Dr. Mark Skinner, Canada Research Chair in Rural Ageing, Health and Social Care, for giving me an opportunity to be the first graduate student at the TCAS (Trent Centre for Ageing and Society). A debt of a different kind is owed to Dr. Stephen Katz, with whom I had the pleasure to exchange views about ageing and who has kindly assisted me during my research stay in Canada in many different ways. I extend my gratitude to ACT (Ageing, Communication, Technologies) research project, Concordia University, Canada, and to Dr. Roberta Maierhofer, who gave me a great opportunity to participate in the Graz Summer School 2016 and in the 1st Joint ENAS & NANAS 6 Conference in Graz 2017, where I met brilliant and inspiring people. I am also very thankful to Dr. Ulla Kriebernegg and Dr. Nickianne Moody for their acceptance to read and evaluate the final version of my thesis. There are many more debts that cannot be measured but are equally significant along my journey through this dissertation. My special warm thanks to Vasi Mocanu, Dr. Maria Rosa Garrido, and Erin Yunes, who have been my shining stars and coffee- break companions in Lleida, Fribourg, and Toronto respectively. I would also like to thank my other close friends who share the passion for dancing and travelling, for it kept me going. Last but not least, I express my love and gratitude to my family who has motivated me from within and made sure that my enthusiasm did not wear off. Thank you for your unflagging love and encouragement in countless ways. *Parts of some chapters that are present in this dissertation appeared in: “Erica Jong: From a Youthful Fear of Flying to a More Experienced Landing in Her Late Years.” In Núria Casado-Gual, Emma Domínguez-Rué, and Brian J.

  • Monitoring the Cross-Border Circulation of European Music Repertoire
    Monitoring the cross-border circulation of European music repertoire within the European Union Report commissioned by EMO & Eurosonic Noordeslag Emmanuel Legrand January 2012 1 About this report: The music scene in Europe is very strong, creative and diversified. Each country within the European Union has a solid local music scene. However, due to the structure of the various national markets, the existence of language diversity and different cultural behaviours, the flow of repertoire across borders within the EU is far from reflecting the notion of one single market. Although there have been embryonic attempts to document the situation of European music repertoire in Europe, the full scale of the situation has never been fully monitored. The European Music Office, in partnership with Eurosonic Noordeslag and Nielsen, has undertaken a preliminary study aimed at monitoring and analysing the cross-border flows of repertoire within the EU in 2011. The study provides quantifiable data on the circulation of repertoire with the ambition of becoming the foundation for an observatory of the circulation of repertoire in Europe. This report has been made possible with the contributions from the following organisations: [NB: the views expressed in this report are those of its author and do not represent those of EMO of Eurosonic Noordeslag.] 2 Executive Summary The study on the circulation of European repertoire within the European Union was commissioned by the European Music Office and Dutch conference and festival Eurosonic Noordeslag. Its purpose is to analyse the flow of repertoire between EU countries, based on statistical data on radio airplay and digital downloads.

This is one reason for the persis- tence of gerontology training programs in higher education. While such programs obviously develop a solid academic foundation in geron- tology, it is equally important that prospective gerontologists or gerontological human service professionals gain first-hand experience in working with the elderly.

  • The Case of Olive Kitteridge (2014)
    International Journal of Communication 15(2021), 563–580 1932–8036/20210005 Ageing and the Creative Spirit of Women in the Audiovisual Market: The Case of Olive Kitteridge (2014) ASUNCIÓN BERNÁRDEZ-RODAL1 Complutense University of Madrid, Spain MARÍA ISABEL MENÉNDEZ-MENÉNDEZ University of Burgos, Spain Audiovisual production continues to be a challenging profession for women, especially older women. This article uses the four-episode miniseries Olive Kitteridge (2014), directed by Lisa Cholodenko and based on the novel of the same name by Elizabeth Strout, to explore the strategies used by women to carve a niche for themselves in a market that is so limited for them. This exploration is followed by a content analysis of the series starring and produced by Frances McDormand, which tells the story of a middle-class teacher in her senior years. Through the application of a gender perspective, contributions from ageing studies or age studies, and an examination of the professional context in which the series was made, this study offers a critical reading both of the process of portraying older women in film and television productions and of their role in the industry; this series is particularly interesting for the dialogue it establishes between the actor/producer’s biography and the story of the character she portrays. Keywords: ageism, HBO, female television, feminist television Women are slowly breaking into the audiovisual production market, not only as actors, but also as directors, screenwriters, and producers. However, their position in the industry continues to be limited compared with that of their male counterparts, and they still suffer discrimination both behind and in front of the camera.
