Davis All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT Monsters and Mayhem: Physical and Moral Survival in Stephen King’s Universe Jaime L. Davis Department of Humanities, Classics, and Comparative Literature, BYU Master of Arts The goal of my thesis is to analyze physical and moral survival in three novels from King’s oeuvre. Scholars have attributed survival in King’s universe to factors such as innocence, imaginative capacity, and career choice. Although their arguments are convincing, I believe that physical and moral survival ultimately depends on a character’s knowledge of the dark side of human nature and an understanding of moral agency.

  • Daughters of Lilith: Transgressive Femininity in Bram Stoker’S Late Gothic Fiction
    Université de Montréal Daughters of Lilith: Transgressive Femininity in Bram Stoker’s Late Gothic Fiction par Brigitte Boudreau Département d’études anglaises Faculté des arts et des sciences Thèse présentée à la Faculté des études supérieures en vue de l’obtention du grade de Philosophiæ Doctor (Ph.D.) en études anglaises Mars 2014 ©Brigitte Boudreau, 2014 i Résumé Daughters of Lilith: Transgressive Femininity in Bram Stoker’s Late Gothic Fiction explore le thème de la transgression féminine dans quatre romans gothiques de Bram Stoker. En combinant les études féministes et les études de genre, cette thèse examine les différents visages de la dissidence féminine à travers Dracula (1897), The Jewel of Seven Stars (1903), The Lady of the Shroud (1909) et The Lair of the White Worm (1911). Dans ces textes, la transgression est incarnée par la femme hystérique, la mère monstrueuse, la femme exotique et la New Woman. De plus, le traitement de ces stéréotypes féminins révèle une certaine tolérance envers la dissension féminine chez l’auteur. Souvent perçu comme un écrivain conservateur, Stoker est plutôt qualifié de progressiste dans cette thèse. L’inclusion de personnages féminins forts et déterminés à travers ses romans ainsi que ses rapports avec plusieurs féministes et proto-féministes dans sa vie privée témoignent de sa libéralité envers les femmes. Sa largeur d’esprit semble d’ailleurs évoluer tout au long de sa carrière ainsi qu’avec la progression du mouvement suffragiste britannique, une période mouvante à la fin du dix-neuvième et au début du vingtième siècle. Mots clés: Bram Stoker, littérature gothique, transgression feminine, femme hystérique, mère monstrueuse, femme exotique, New Woman ii Abstract Daughters of Lilith: Transgressive Femininity in Bram Stoker’s Late Gothic Fiction explores the theme of feminine dissidence in four of Stoker’s Gothic novels.

    “Sometimes Being a Bitch is All a Woman Has”: Stephen King, Gothic Stereotypes, and the Representation of Women A thesis presented to the faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts Kimberly S. Beal June 2012 © 2012 Kimberly S. Beal. All Rights Reserved. 2 This thesis titled “Sometimes Being a Bitch is All a Woman Has”: Stephen King, Gothic Stereotypes, and the Representation of Women by KIMBERLY S. BEAL has been approved for the Department of English and the College of Arts and Sciences by Joanne Lipson Freed Visiting Assistant Professor of English Howard Dewald Interim Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 3 ABSTRACT BEAL, KIMBERLY S., M.A., June 2012, English “Sometimes Being a Bitch is All a Woman Has”: Stephen King, Gothic Stereotypes, and the Representation of Women Director of Thesis: Joanne Lipson Freed Stephen King has been lauded for his creation of realistic and believable male and child characters. Many critics, however, question his ability to do the same with female characters, pointing out that King recycles the same female stereotypes over and over in his fiction. However, a closer look at his female characters reveals not only that his use of female stereotypes, which correspond to the classic Gothic female stereotypes, is part of a larger overall pattern of the use of Gothic elements, but also that there are five female characters, Annie Wilkes from Misery, Jessie Burlingame from Gerald’s Game, Dolores Claiborne from Dolores Claiborne, Rose Daniels from Rose Madder, and Lisey Landon from Lisey’s Story, who do not fit into these stereotypes.

  • Stephen King's Vampire Kingdom. Supernatural EVIL and Human Evil
    Stephen King’s Vampire Kingdom. Supernatural EVIL and Human evil in TV adaptations of Salem’s Lot (1979, 2004) ‘Beneath the postcard camouflage there’s little good in small towns. Mostly boredom, interspersed with a dull, mindless, moronic evil’ (Salem’s Lot, 2004) First published in October 1975, Salem’s Lot is one of Stephen King’s most enduring novels. King critic Douglas Winter considers it ‘the single most influential of his books’ (1989:43), while screenwriter Peter Filardi, who would adapt it for TV in 2004, has described it as ‘a modern literary classic’ (Gross 2004: 10). Not only did the novel achieve longevity in its own right, but also the story of a small American community torn asunder by the arrival of a supernatural force became something of an archetypal Stephen King narrative to which he would return many times during his career. In Salem’s Lot the catalyst is the arrival of Kurt Barlow, an ancient European vampire, but in later works King has had the destructive force be extra-terrestrial (IT, 1985, The Tommyknockers, 1987 and Under the Dome, 2009), demonic (Needful Things, 1991), cosmic forces of fate (Insomnia, 1994) and inter-dimensional (‘The Mist’ 1980) Possibly because its structure became a King archetype, or due to its enduring appeal and the fact that it is one of King’s earliest works, Salem’s Lot is unusual in the canon of King adaptations by being adapted twice, once in 1979 and once in 2004. Both were miniseries for television, the first directed by Tobe Hooper and the second by Mikael Salomon.

  • Texts Ranging from Frankenstein to the Splatterpunk Novels of Clive Barker and Poppy Z
    University of Reading Deviant Subjectivities: monstrosity and kinship in the Gothic Imagination Doctor of Philosophy Department of English Literature Evan Hayles Gledhill June 2018 Abstract This thesis posits British and American Gothic as a construction of, and critical engagement with, Enlightenment cultures of embodiment and subjectivity: its monsters are reflections on, and explorations of, those figures excluded from the humanist subject position, as it was constructed by John Locke and later Sentimental philosophers. The concept of heteronormative kinship is central to the philosophical understanding of the subject in the modern era; from scientific ideas about genus and species, to philosophical debates about the structure of the nation state, family is the key term. Interrogating kinship and its relation to normativity in texts ranging from Frankenstein to the splatterpunk novels of Clive Barker and Poppy Z. Brite, and nineteenth-century plantation novels to television crime dramas, I argue, is crucial to understanding the cultural construction of humanity itself. Focusing on representations of the monstrous as a deviation from the norm of an able and reproductive body, I centre my analysis on the intersections of gender, sexuality, race, and disability, taking a critical stance informed by critical disability studies and feminist queer theory. Previous studies have read physical anomaly as a metaphor for other minority identities, and so (dis)ability disappears as a question in its own right. In this respect, critical discourse may continue to re-enact Enlightenment structures of domination, hegemony, and universalization, even as they seek to challenge them. Charting Gothic explorations of the relationship between self-subject-citizen and other-object-monster, from their eighteenth century origins to the contemporary era, I examine changing representations of monstrosity and kinship within an historicised context.

  • Randall Flagg: Stephen King's Devil Or Trickster?
    Randall Flagg: Stephen King's Devil or Trickster? Heidi Strengell University of Helsinki 1. Introduction The character of Randall Flagg proves that not only does Stephen King blend genres while compiling story lines but also as regards individual characters. A generic hybrid, Flagg is a composite of many traits, pri­ marily the Dark Man and the Trickster. Below 1 analyze Flagg in the works he recurs in the order of publication in order to reveal the essential paradox of both this complex character and King's works in general: despite seemingly supernatural characters, events, or story lines, the bedrock of King's credibility lies in his intense realism. In the final ana­ lysis, as readers we are forced to face our own flawed humanity in the amorality of Randall Flagg, who appears to be a recmTing incarnation possessed by an outside force. In other words, rather than metaphysical concepts, King views both good and evil as very real forces, which, in turn, challenge us to fight for the values we respect. Hence, Flagg embodies much of King's genre-blending and genre-shifting, on the one hand, and reflects the tension between the supernatural and the realistic, on the other - two of the most typical characteristics in his writing. A recurring character in King, Randall Flagg made his first appearance in People, Places, and Things, a collection of eighteen one-page science­ fiction and horror short stories in typescript written by the teenage Stephen King and his childhood friend Chris Chesley in the late 1950s (Stephen J. Spignesi, The Lost Work of Stephen King, Secaucus: Birch Lane Press, 1999:5; hereafter cited as Spignesi, Lost).

  • Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} 'Salem's Lot by Stephen King
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} 'Salem's Lot by Stephen King Jerusalem's Lot (story) " Jerusalem's Lot " is a short story written by Stephen King, included in his 1978 collection Night Shift . The story acts as a prequel to King's 1975 novel `Salem's Lot . Summary. Charles Boone, in a series of letters addressed to an acquaintance nicknamed "Bones", describes the arrival of himself and his manservant, Calvin McCann, at Chapelwaite, the neglected ancestral home of Charles's estranged late cousin, Stephen. Stephen left the estate to Charles in an apparent gesture of good will, trying to repair an old rift between the two sides of the family. While running errands, Calvin finds that many people in the nearby town of Preacher's Corners, Maine think them mad for being willing to live in the mansion. The house is said to be "a bad house," with a history of sad events, disappearances, and mysterious noises which Charles attributes to "rats in the walls". Not long after their arrival, Calvin finds a hidden compartment in the library, containing an old map of a nearby deserted village called Jerusalem's Lot, a mysterious area the townsfolk avoid. Marked on the map is a church, with the label, "The worm that doth corrupt." Their curiosity piqued, Charles and Calvin set out to explore the remains of the town the next day. They find the quaint Puritan settlement heavily weathered and decayed, but it is clear that no one has set foot in the town since its abandonment; not looters, collectors, children, nor animals, such as birds or spiders.

Muthukannan Research Scholar Department of English, Bishop Heber College Trichy, Tamil Nadu, India Dr. A. Sheeba Princess Research Supervisor and Assistant Professor Department of English, Bishop Heber College Trichy, Tamil Nadu, India [email protected] The Myth of Resurrection Upshots Wendigo Psychosis and Vampirism in Stephen Kings Pet Sematary & Salem’s Lot: A Study Abstract Human life is a mystery it has a beginning and end. For long time there is a second thought called resurrection. In Stephen king’s novels there is a chance to explore the doubt and get answer for the cause of resurrection. This paper deals with the concept of Wendigo, practice of cannibalism, monters, and myth of vampires. As Carl Gustav Jung said, all evil things which men made were out of his collective unconsciousness. Keywords: Vampirism, Wendigo Psychosis, Collective Unconsciousness and Myth. IJELLH (International Journal of English Language, Literature in Humanities) Vol. 7, Issue 7, July 2019 205 Introduction Stephen King’s horror novel Pet Sematary was published in 1983. King deals with wendigo concept in The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon (1999) and Pet Sematary (1983) as a major antagonist and the mimac burial ground as a symbol of resurrection. These two novels bring back the wendigo myth to the readers after long gap. Wendigo is a monster from myth which is in fact a half degraded human. Pet Sematary was nominated to World Fantasy Award for Best Novel in 1986 and adapted into a film in 1989 of the same name.
