  • ESTUDOS CULTURAIS E CINEMA: GÊNERO E Sociedadei. “RINGU” E “THE RING” Claudiomar Dos Reis Gonçalvesii Resumo: Este
    1 REVISTA HISTÓRIA HOJE. SÃO PAULO, Nº 5, 2004. ISSN 1806.3993 ESTUDOS CULTURAIS E CINEMA: GÊNERO E SOCIEDADEi. “RINGU” E “THE RING” Claudiomar dos Reis Gonçalvesii Resumo: Este artigo visa iniciar uma abordagem multireferencial a partir dos Estudos Culturais sobre o Cinema denominado “de terror”, discutindo as relações de Gênero e o como estas são representadas nas sociedades japonesa e americana, principalmente no que diz respeito a diversos subtextos existentes em duas versões de um mesmo filme. Palavras-chave: Estudos Culturais; Relações de Gênero; Cinema ; Terror. Abstract: This article aims at presenting a multi-referential approach - based on Cultural Studies on Horror Films- by discussing gender relations and how these are represented in American and Japanese societies, especially regarding the diverse subtexts underlying two versions of the same film. Keywords: cultural studies, gender relations, cinema, Horror films. “(...) o discurso escrito, assim como a fotografia, o cinema, a reportagem, o esporte, os espetáculos, a publicidade, tudo isto pode servir de suporte à fala mítica.(....) a imagem é certamente mais imperativa do que a escrita, impõe a significação de uma só vez, sem analisá-la, sem dispersa-la”. Roland Barthes. Mitologias. Este artigo, na verdade, é parte de um estudo muito maior e que está, ainda, em seu início. Por sugestão de colegas e dos pareceristas, partes inteiras foram retiradas, inúmeras imagens, notas, comentários e alusões a uma vasta filmografia 2 também. Esperamos que o leitor tenha paciência e que tenha em conta seu caráter ensaísta, bem como uma certa “desfiguração” causada pelas contingências descritas acima. De qualquer forma, o texto apresenta algumas premissas e noções com as quais trabalharemos em texto posterior, e sobre o quais desenvolveremos uma futura ampliação do campo de debate.

I am excited to share this tremendous summit with so many distinguished speakers and panelists. I’d first like to thank the Investor Protection Trust and all of our distinguished sponsors. This day is a combined effort that would not have been possible without your endless support. As Secretary of State, my office has many avenues to move Georgia forward and bring better futures to our state’s voters, business owners, and families; however, it is clear that financial literacy should be a top priority. Building a better business climate – and making our state a cornerstone for economic development – starts at the individual level. That’s why my office is fully dedicated to partnering with Georgia’s communities and business-owners to offer every citizen free programs that will set the foundation for a lifetime of smart financial decisions and a better future for our state. Georgia has been named the number one state in which to do business for six years in a row, and with programs like She Leads, I know we can make it seven. It is my hope that this event gives you the resources and know-how to take back to your businesses and communities and make progress toward your personal and professional goals.

  • Riverdale Riverdale Is an American Teen Drama Television Series
    Riverdale Riverdale is an American teen drama television series produced by Warner Bros. This series takes place in Vancouver, British Columbia. The broadcasting started in 2015. The main actors are Archie Andrews playing a character with the name as him, Lili Reinhart as Betty Cooper, Camila Mendes as Veronica Lodge, and Cole Sprouse as Jughead Jones. The cast also features Madelaine Petsch as Cheryl Blossom, Ashleigh Murray as Josie McCoy and Casey Cott as Kevin Keller. I chose this serie because, two years ago when I was in Budapest for three months with my friends Solenn, she showed me the trailer, and it was very funny. The story was a amusing. It was also nice to watch as a and I have kept on watching it. In this series, there are a lot of seasons (4) with many episodes. The story can change very fast, but it talks about teenagers in the town of Riverdale. All the young people study in the city’s high school. The story starts with the death of Jason Blossom. After that, the city is haunted by a serial killer "the black hood" who is the father of a main character of the series. His teenage daughter Betty and her boyfriend Jug investigate and try to solve all the murders. Another character Archie is threatened by the father of his girlfriend : Veronica Lodge. A game that already existed when the parents of the teenagers were teenagers, reappears in the series. It is a dangerous game which leads to many deaths and murders. Betty and Jug keep on investigating until the end to find the culprits and are helped by their faithful friends.
