Household names, often with preserved archives, have had their company stories written by academics, journalists, and former senior employees. Broader national studies have analysed the role that big business has played in a country’s economic development. While sometimes this work has alleged oppressive anti-competitive behaviour, much has been written from a more positive perspective. Business historians, influenced by the pioneering work of Alfred Chandler, have implicated the ‘visible hand’ of large scale enterprise in national economic development particularly through their competitive strategies and modernised governance structures, which have facilitated innovation, the integration of national markets, and the growth of professional bureaucracies. While our understanding of the role of big business has been enriched by an aggregation of case studies, some writers have sought to study its impact through economy-wide lenses. This has typically involved constructing sets of the largest 100 or 200 companies at periodic benchmark years through the twentieth century, and then analysing their characteristics – such as their size, industrial location, growth strategies, and market share - and how they changed over time.

  • The Ginger, the Pin-Up, Or the Stepchild? Redheadedness As An
    THE GINGER, THE PIN-UP, OR THE STEPCHILD? REDHEADEDNESS AS AN EMBODIED TROPE By Morgan Lee Thornburg A Project Presented to The Faculty of Humboldt State University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in English: Applied English Studies Dr. Michael Eldridge, Advisor Dr. Janet Winston, Second Reader Dr. Janet Winston, Program Graduate Coordinator December 2020 ABSTRACT THE GINGER, THE PIN-UP, OR THE STEPCHILD? REDHEADEDNESS AS AN EMBODIED TROPE Morgan Lee Thornburg The study of redheadedness has been largely neglected in the academic community and beyond. Besides a few outdated psychology studies, pop culture books, a handful of student theses, and one dissertation, there has been little investigation regarding how the tropes associated with redheadedness—namely, weakness and unattractiveness in men and unruliness and hypersexuality in women—become embodied. This project considers the way that such tropes are internalized in a variety of “texts”: Scott P. Harris’s documentary, Being Ginger; Marion Roach’s and Jacky Colliss Harvey’s personal narratives; and Tim Minchin’s song (and performance of) “Prejudice,” together with an interview he gave for The Guardian. Using Krista Ratcliffe’s method of rhetorical listening, I reveal the ways that these texts identify and disidentify with redheadedness. Despite the authors’ awareness of redhead-related stereotypes, these texts continue to perpetuate many of those same stereotypes in subtle and complex ways. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT .......................................................................................................................
