Because of this, more and more men and women, with capital to invest and estates to manage, are turning to the Living Trust. WHAT IT IS The Living Trust is a Trust which you establish to go into effect during your lifetime, as part of your overall estate plan, and for the purpose of receiving professional management for a specified portion of your property. It can be arranged for the benefit of yourself, members of your family, or other individuals or charities —and can be large or small. We will be glad to meet with you and your attorney, in strict con- fidence, to discuss a Living Trust as it fits in with your situation. For an appointment, at your convenience, please write or call the Personal Trust Department of the National Shawmut Bank, Boston, Massachusetts. No obligation, of course. Send for the Shawmut Bank's informative new booklet, "The Living Trust". It tells the whole story. Yours without charge.

February 21, 1891, was selected as the date, and it was decided to have the Annual Meeting and certain Literary Exercises commemorative of the occasion precede the Dinner. The Committee has prepared this volume con- taining the Literary Exercises, a brief account of the Din- ner, and a catalogue of the members of the Club to date. A full account of the Annual Meeting and the Dinner may be found in the Club records. The thanks of the Committee and of the Club are due to Brothers Honorary Sargent, Isham, and Chapman for their contribution towards the success of the Exercises Literary ; also to Brother Honorary Hazeltine for his interest in pre- PREFATORY paring the plates for the memorial programme; also to Brother Honorary Painter for revising the Club Catalogue.

This station is pioneering non-commercial educational tele- vision in New England entirely financed by private grants and subscriptions. Although state or municipal funds are not in any way in- volved in the operation of Channel 2 or other television stations, some credit must be given to the Commonwealth itself for encouragement of educational television in Massa- chusetts.

Scott Campbell certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: PERFECTION, WRETCHED, NORMAL, AND NOWHERE: A REGIONAL GEOGRAPHY OF AMERICAN TELEVISION SETTINGS Committee: Chairperson* Date approved: ii ABSTRACT Drawing inspiration from numerous place image studies in geography and other social sciences, this dissertation examines the senses of place and regional identity shaped by more than seven hundred American television series that aired from 1947 to 2007. Each state‘s relative share of these programs is described. The geographic themes, patterns, and images from these programs are analyzed, with an emphasis on identity in five American regions: the Mid-Atlantic, New England, the Midwest, the South, and the West. The dissertation concludes with a comparison of television‘s senses of place to those described in previous studies of regional identity. iii For Sue iv CONTENTS List of Tables vi Acknowledgments vii 1.

My first and deepest gratitude goes to my advisor, Asst. Prof. Dr. Suda Rangkupan, who devoted her time supervising and guiding me through the whole process of research. She gave me advice not only on how to analyze the data from a linguistic perspective but also on how to see research as part of the whole learning experience that would contribute to my own personal growth as well as the growth in the field of the study. It was therefore really a privilege to work under her supervision. I also would like to express my profound gratitude to the entire dissertation committee, Asst. Prof. Dr. Sudaporn Luksaneeyanawin, Asst. Prof. Dr. Peansiri Vongvipanond, Asst. Prof. Dr. Chansongklod Gajaseni, and Dr. Preena Kangkun, for devoting their time to critically reading my work and giving me valuable advice, which has certainly brought significant improvements to this dissertation. Moreover, I am grateful to Dr. Carmen Rosa Caldas-Coulthard at the Department of English, School of Humanities, University of Birmingham for her supervision and support during the time of my study at the University of Birmingham.
