Te amarei para sempre. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gO8LVETUCOPSnTareS2j4xe7wIPKwmdpU3Do8Hxkx2o/edit 5/254 03/05/2019 TESE RICARDO BRUNO FLOR DOUTORADO PPGH PUCRS - Documentos Google 5 AGRADECIMENTOS A Helder V. Gordim da Silveira, meu orientador em todas as principais etapas da minha carreira até agora. Um acadêmico aparentemente incapaz de ser intimidado por qualquer objeto de pesquisa, abordagem teórica ou texto, independentemente da complexidade, da profundidade ou dos erros de português. Ao Programa de Pós-Graduação em História, pelas experiências e oportunidades. Aos seus funcionários, sempre dispostos a ajudar e a responder dúvidas, em especial a Carla Helena Pereira e Henriet Ilges Shinohara. Aos meus professores e colegas pela ajuda e pela inspiração. Foi uma honra imensa. Aos membros da banca, pelos elogios e principalmente pelas correções e contribuições. A Shana Natasha Oliveira Sikora, o amor da minha vida, que esteve ao meu lado durante a maior parte da minha vida acadêmica. A ela devo mais do que aqui cabe expressar, mas no que diz respeito a presente Tese, há duas contribuições principais que eu não posso ignorar. Em primeiro lugar, sua amizade, que foi muito além do apoio constante: a promessa de conversas à mesa e antes de dormir foram uma motivação muito mais eficaz para meus estudos do que quaisquer promessas de titulação ou mérito poderiam aspirar a ser. Essas conversas me levaram a mais elucubrações e conclusões do que todas minhas leituras, aulas e pesquisas. Em segundo lugar, a forma como nosso relacionamento (cuja intensidade ainda me vejo munido de vocabulário insuficiente para descrever) colocou em perspectiva minha pesquisa, dando uma dimensão visceral a noções sobre a humanidade que seriam apenas abstrações vazias de outra forma. Imaginar a presente Tese sem os efeitos de seu amor é um esforço para o qual me faltam capacidade e interesse. A minha irmã, Daniela Bruno Flor. As demandas da presente Tese deram uma nova dimensão ao carinho que já tinha por ela. Sua ajuda foi inestimável. Sua amizade me é cada vez mais preciosa. Ela tem minha mais sincera admiração. Aos meus pais, Moema Dias Bruno e Telmo Ricardo Borges Flor, pelo apoio constante, pelo zelo e pelo exemplo que sempre foram. Dentre meus diversos privilégios por eles providos, nenhum supera crescer em uma casa com pessoas éticas, afetivas e intelectuais. Meu interesse em História é uma extensão do apreço que me foi inculcado muito cedo pelo conhecimento. Para além disso, minha pesquisa foi moldada pela aversão ao desonesto e pelo apreço ao original – ambas https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gO8LVETUCOPSnTareS2j4xe7wIPKwmdpU3Do8Hxkx2o/edit 6/254 03/05/2019 TESE RICARDO BRUNO FLOR DOUTORADO PPGH PUCRS - Documentos Google 6 tendências que devo à minha criação. Por fim, me ensinaram a dissociar o conhecimento da formalidade. Serei sempre grato. A Norma Dias Bruno, a Dedi, que sempre foi como uma segunda mãe. Os méritos que atribuí aos meus pais valem em igual medida para ela. A Ângela Figueiredo, pela ajuda em lidar com os momentos mais difíceis e em desfrutar dos mais alegres. Sem ela eu não teria conseguido. A Marcelo Soares. Como consta em outros trabalhos meus, meu interesse em comic books seria inexistente sem que ele me enviasse os primeiros exemplares que li. É um irmão para mim. A meus avós, tios, tias, primos e sobrinhos: a quantidade de pessoas cujo carinho contribuiu para minha produção nos últimos anos superam o espaço aqui disponível. Há uma constante que posso atribuir às minhas relações com todos eles: afeto. Um afeto extenso e intenso que coloca em perspectiva tudo aquilo que estudei. Muito obrigado. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gO8LVETUCOPSnTareS2j4xe7wIPKwmdpU3Do8Hxkx2o/edit 7/254 03/05/2019 TESE RICARDO BRUNO FLOR DOUTORADO PPGH PUCRS - Documentos Google 7 Mas se o tipo de pessoa que devota seu fim de semana a gerar uma onda de indignação artificial a partir de Tweets antigos com a intenção de fazer alguém ser demitido de um filme como A.) um presente gratuito para uma Administração Presidencial alegremente fascista que ele(a) admira por ser alegremente fascista (não se engane: Qualquer um ainda entusiasmadamente no “Trem do Trump” é em algum nível o tipo de pessoa que gosta da ideia de bebês mexicanos em jaulas do ICE, mulheres sendo forçadas a dar à luz contra sua vontade via uma revogação de Roe Vs. Wade, gays perdendo o direito de se casar, etc.) ou B.) a sensação eletrizante mesquinha e sádica de “mostrar para os libs” é empoderado e encorajado a continuar fazendo isso e de fato escalar essas ações? Isso é algo muito sério. Traduzido livremente de: But whether or not the kind of person who’ll devote their weekend to generating an artificial outrage-wave out of ancient Tweets in order to get someone fired from a movie as A.) a free gift to a gleefully-fascistic Presidential Administration they admire for that gleeful fascism (make no mistake: Anyone who’s still enthusiastically on “The Trump Train” is on some level the kind of person who enjoys the idea of Mexican babies in ICE cages, women being forced to give birth against their will via a repeal of Roe V Wade, gays losing marriage rights, etc) or B.) the petty sadistic thrill of “owning the libs” is made to feel empowered and encouraged to keep doing so and in fact escalate these actions?

Para tanto, analisamos 17 comic books publicados entre 1937 e 1945 (que se tornaram nosso objeto de estudo), além de outros publicados no mesmo contexto. Com o intuito de entender as publicações, também dedicamos atenção para a formação do comic book enquanto suporte material e das ferramentas narrativas das histórias em quadrinhos. Um capítulo também foi dedicado a estudar os quadrinistas e o público (tanto para entender algumas de suas pertenças sociais quanto os processos de autoria e circulação dos comic books ), bem como algumas agências governamentais e semi-governamentais especialmente influentes sobre os comic books e sobre as relações entre os EUA e a América Latina.

    COMIC BOOKS AS AMERICAN PROPAGANDA DURING WORLD WAR II A Master’s Thesis Presented To College of Arts & Sciences Department of Communications and Humanities _______________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Master of Science Degree _______________________________ SUNY Polytechnic Institute By David Dellecese May 2018 © 2018 David Dellecese Approval Page SUNY Polytechnic Institute DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNICATIONS AND HUMANITIES INFORMATION DESIGN AND TECHNOLOGY MS PROGRAM Approved and recommended for acceptance as a thesis in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Information Design + Technology. _________________________ DATE ________________________________________ Kathryn Stam Thesis Advisor ________________________________________ Ryan Lizardi Second Reader ________________________________________ Russell Kahn Instructor 1 ABSTRACT American comic books were a relatively, but quite popular form of media during the years of World War II. Amid a limited media landscape that otherwise consisted of radio, film, newspaper, and magazines, comics served as a useful tool in engaging readers of all ages to get behind the war effort. The aims of this research was to examine a sampling of messages put forth by comic book publishers before and after American involvement in World War II in the form of fictional comic book stories. In this research, it is found that comic book storytelling/messaging reflected a theme of American isolation prior to U.S. involvement in the war, but changed its tone to become a strong proponent for American involvement post-the bombing of Pearl Harbor. This came in numerous forms, from vilification of America’s enemies in the stories of super heroics, the use of scrap, rubber, paper, or bond drives back on the homefront to provide resources on the frontlines, to a general sense of patriotism.

  • Merchants Of
    Introduction The Jews never faced much anti-Semitism in America. This is due, in large part, to the underlying ideologies it was founded on; namely, universalistic interpretations of Christianity and Enlightenment ideals of freedom, equality and opportunity for all. These principles, which were arguably created with noble intent – and based on the values inherent in a society of European-descended peoples of high moral character – crippled the defenses of the individualistic-minded White natives and gave the Jews free reign to consolidate power at a rather alarming rate, virtually unchecked. The Jews began emigrating to the United States in waves around 1880, when their population was only about 250,000. Within a decade that number was nearly double, and by the 1930s it had shot to 3 to 4 million. Many of these immigrants – if not most – were Eastern European Jews of the nastiest sort, and they immediately became vastly overrepresented among criminals and subversives. A 1908 police commissioner report shows that while the Jews made up only a quarter of the population of New York City at that time, they were responsible for 50% of its crime. Land of the free. One of their more common criminal activities has always been the sale and promotion of pornography and smut. Two quotes should suffice in backing up this assertion, one from an anti-Semite, and one from a Jew. Firstly, an early opponent of the Jews in America, Greek scholar T.T. Timayenis, wrote in his 1888 book The Original Mr. Jacobs that nearly “all obscene publications are the work of the Jews,” and that the historian of the future who shall attempt to describe the catalogue of the filthy publications issued by the Jews during the last ten years will scarcely believe the evidence of his own eyes.

The purpose of this research is to adapt the approaches used by prominent and influential writers and artists in the American superhero/action comic-book field to create an engaging Australian hero comic book. Further, the aim of this thesis is to bridge the gap between the lack of academic writing on the professional practice of the Australian comic industry. In order to achieve this, I explored and learned the methods these prominent and professional US writers and artists use. Compared to the American industry, the creating of comic books in Australia has rarely been documented, particularly in a formal capacity or from a contemporary perspective. The process I used was to navigate through the research and studio practice from the perspective of a solo artist with an interest to learn, and to develop into an artist with a firmer understanding of not only the medium being engaged, but the context in which the medium is being created.

Co-Chair: Ben Chappell Co-Chair: Elizabeth Esch Henry Bial Germaine Halegoua Joo Ok Kim Date Defended: 10 May, 2019 ii The dissertation committee for Ora Charles McWilliams certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: ‘Yes, But What Have You Done for Me Lately?’: Intersections of Intellectual Property, Work-for-Hire, and The Struggle of the Creative Precariat in the American Comic Book Industry Co-Chair: Ben Chappell Co-Chair: Elizabeth Esch Date Approved: 24 May 2019 iii Abstract The comic book industry has significant challenges with intellectual property rights. Comic books have rarely been treated as a serious art form or cultural phenomenon. It used to be that creating a comic book would be considered shameful or something done only as side work. Beginning in the 1990s, some comic creators were able to leverage enough cultural capital to influence more media. In the post-9/11 world, generic elements of superheroes began to resonate with audiences; superheroes fight against injustices and are able to confront the evils in today’s America. This has created a billion dollar, Oscar-award-winning industry of superhero movies, as well as allowed created comic book careers for artists and writers.
