  • Myth, Metatext, Continuity and Cataclysm in Dc Comics’ Crisis on Infinite Earths
    WORLDS WILL LIVE, WORLDS WILL DIE: MYTH, METATEXT, CONTINUITY AND CATACLYSM IN DC COMICS’ CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS Adam C. Murdough A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2006 Committee: Angela Nelson, Advisor Marilyn Motz Jeremy Wallach ii ABSTRACT Angela Nelson, Advisor In 1985-86, DC Comics launched an extensive campaign to revamp and revise its most important superhero characters for a new era. In many cases, this involved streamlining, retouching, or completely overhauling the characters’ fictional back-stories, while similarly renovating the shared fictional context in which their adventures take place, “the DC Universe.” To accomplish this act of revisionist history, DC resorted to a text-based performative gesture, Crisis on Infinite Earths. This thesis analyzes the impact of this singular text and the phenomena it inspired on the comic-book industry and the DC Comics fan community. The first chapter explains the nature and importance of the convention of “continuity” (i.e., intertextual diegetic storytelling, unfolding progressively over time) in superhero comics, identifying superhero fans’ attachment to continuity as a source of reading pleasure and cultural expressivity as the key factor informing the creation of the Crisis on Infinite Earths text. The second chapter consists of an eschatological reading of the text itself, in which it is argued that Crisis on Infinite Earths combines self-reflexive metafiction with the ideologically inflected symbolic language of apocalypse myth to provide DC Comics fans with a textual "rite of transition," to win their acceptance for DC’s mid-1980s project of self- rehistoricization and renewal.

A major critique of the genre is that it simply represents an adolescent male power fantasy; and presents a world view that valorises masculinist individualism.

  • THE COLLECTED POEMS of HENRIK IBSEN Translated by John Northam
    1 THE COLLECTED POEMS OF HENRIK IBSEN Translated by John Northam 2 PREFACE With the exception of a relatively small number of pieces, Ibsen’s copious output as a poet has been little regarded, even in Norway. The English-reading public has been denied access to the whole corpus. That is regrettable, because in it can be traced interesting developments, in style, material and ideas related to the later prose works, and there are several poems, witty, moving, thought provoking, that are attractive in their own right. The earliest poems, written in Grimstad, where Ibsen worked as an assistant to the local apothecary, are what one would expect of a novice. Resignation, Doubt and Hope, Moonlight Voyage on the Sea are, as their titles suggest, exercises in the conventional, introverted melancholy of the unrecognised young poet. Moonlight Mood, To the Star express a yearning for the typically ethereal, unattainable beloved. In The Giant Oak and To Hungary Ibsen exhorts Norway and Hungary to resist the actual and immediate threat of Prussian aggression, but does so in the entirely conventional imagery of the heroic Viking past. From early on, however, signs begin to appear of a more personal and immediate engagement with real life. There is, for instance, a telling juxtaposition of two poems, each of them inspired by a female visitation. It is Over is undeviatingly an exercise in romantic glamour: the poet, wandering by moonlight mid the ruins of a great palace, is visited by the wraith of the noble lady once its occupant; whereupon the ruins are restored to their old splendour.

  • The Sailor Who Fell from Grace with the Sea
    Penguin Books The Sailor Who Fell from Grace with the Sea Yukio Mishima was born in Tokyo in 1925. When he graduated from the Peers' School in 1944, he received a citation from the Emperor as the highest honour student. He graduated from the Tokyo Imperial University School of Jurisprudence in 1947, and the following year he published his first novel. He wrote eight novels, four successful plays for the Kabuki Theatre, and a travel book. He was the author of more than fifty short stories, ten one-act plays, and several volumes of essays. Among his books published in England are After the Banquet, Confessions elf a Mask, Death in Midsummer and other stories, and The Thirstfor Love. The Sound of Waves, published in Japan under the title of Shiosai, won the 1954 Shinchosha literary prize. Immediately after the Second World War, Yukio Mishima went to the United States as a guest of the State Department and of Partisan Review. In his spare time he was a devotee of weight-lifting and body-building exercises. Mishima firmly upheld the traditions of Japan's imperial past, which he believed were being swiftly eroded by Western materialism. In 1970 he astonished the world when he and a colleague committed ritual suicide, or hara-kiri, by disembowelment.

  • Bankruptcy Court Jurisdiction and Agency Action: Resolving the Nextwave of Conflict
    COMMENT BANKRUPTCY COURT JURISDICTION AND AGENCY ACTION: RESOLVING THE NEXTWAVE OF CONFLICT RAFAEL IGNACIO PARDO* In this Comment Rafael Pardo criticizes a recent pair of decisions by the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, FCC v. NextNVave Personal Com- munications, Inc. (In re NextWave Personal Communications, Inc.) and In re FCC Those cases held that a bankruptcy court lacks jurisdiction to determine whether the Federal Communications Commission is stayed from revoking a debtor's licenses. Pardo argues that the court of appeals interpretedthe banknrptcy court's jurisdiction too narrowly because it failed to distinguish properly between an agency's action as a creditor and as a regulator. He concludes that bankruptcy courts and courts of appeals have concurrent jurisdiction to make automatic stay determinationsregarding FCC licenses and that,for reasons of institutionalcompe- tenc4 courts of appeals should defer to this exercise of jurisdiction by bankruptcy courts. INTRODUCTION Five years ago, pursuant to an amendment to the Federal Com- munications Act (FCA),' the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) began to auction off a portion of radio spectrum for personal communications services (PCS) licenses. 2 While the auction for A- and B-block PCS licenses predominately had involved large bidders such as Sprint and AT&T,3 the C-block license auction targeted smaller businesses by offering them deferred payment plans.4 The * This comment is dedicated to the late Professor Lawrence King, for everything he taught me about bankruptcy and for believing in me. My sincere thanks to Professors Larry Kramer and William Nelson for their helpful suggestions; Maggie Lemos for her encouragement and impressive development comments; and Katie Tnto, Seth Nesin, and P.K.
