  • Que a Melhor Mulher Vença: Problemas De Identidade De Gênero E Questões Drag Em “Rupaul’S Drag Race”
    QUE A MELHOR MULHER VENÇA: PROBLEMAS DE IDENTIDADE DE GÊNERO E QUESTÕES DRAG EM “RUPAUL’S DRAG RACE” João Vinícius Nascimento de Jesus (João Bertonie)1 Resumo: Este trabalho tem como objetivo analisar os problemas de gênero, em sua abordagem relativa à identidade de gênero, e suas relações com questões drag, queer e LGBT encontrados no reality show estadosunidense “RuPaul’s Drag Race”, que envolve uma competição entre diferentes graus de articidade e habilidades performáticas de drag queens. Articulando autores como Butler (2003, 2006), Zumthor (2001) e Scheschner (2003, 2006), percebemos o quanto o programa televisivo explora questões relativas à legitimação e autenticidade em relação à arte drag e à cultura queer e LGBT e como ele atua de modo a regular produções de articidade e, principalmente, de identidades contemporâneas. Palavras-chave: drag queens, performatividade, performance, gênero, RuPaul. Introdução Ao meio de todo episódio do reality show americano “RuPaul’s Drag Race” (LOGO; VH1, 2009-2016, 2017-), RuPaul desfila no main stage ao som da sua música “Cover Girl (Put The Bass In Your Walk)”, enquanto luzes de holofote são apontadas freneticamente para ela. Em seu programa, drag queens americanas competem, ao longo de diversas provas que testam seus talentos performáticos, ao título de Próxima Drag Superstar dos EUA. Seu visual assinatura é um cabelo volumoso loiro, expressivos olhos esfumados e um vestido longo que lhe confere uma cintura de ampulheta. Após saudar os jurados fixos e os convidados e explicar o desafio da semana, ela repete o bordão, de forma pomposa e entusiasmada: “Senhores, apertem os cintos, e que a melhor mulher vença!”.

    THE MULTI-FACETED ARTISTRY OF VIOLIST EMANUEL VARDI BY LYDIA M. TANG THESIS Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts in Music with a concentration in Performance and Literature in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2016 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Rudolf Haken, Chair Associate Professor Katherine Syer, Director of Research Associate Professor Scott Schwartz Professor Stephen Taylor Clinical Assistant Professor Elizabeth Freivogel Abstract As a pioneer viola virtuoso of the 20th century, Emanuel “Manny” Vardi (c. 1915-2011) is most widely recognized as the first violist to record all of Paganini’s Caprices. As a passionate advocate for the viola as a solo instrument, Vardi premiered and championed now-standard repertoire, elevated the technique of violists by his virtuosic example, and inspired composers to write more demanding new repertoire for the instrument. However, the details of his long and diverse career have never to date been explored in depth or in a comprehensive manner. This thesis presents the first full biographical narrative of Vardi’s life: highlighting his work with the NBC Symphony under Arturo Toscanini, his activities as a soloist for the United States Navy Band during World War II, his compositional output, visual artwork, an analysis of his playing and teaching techniques, as well as his performing and recording legacies in classical, jazz, and popular music. Appendices include a chronology of his life, discography, lists of compositions written by and for Vardi, registered copyrights, and a list of interviews conducted by the author with family members, former students, and colleagues.

  • Space, Gender & Hierarchy in British Gangland Film
    BETWEEN A ROCK AND A HARD PLACE: Space, Gender & Hierarchy in British Gangland Film Sally Tatham Robertson Williams Submitted to the University of Hertfordshire in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of PhD October 2010 Acknowledgements Firstly, I‟d like to thank Alan Brooke for his unfailing enthusiasm, encouragement and inspiration throughout an unexpected academic journey, which he initiated over a decade ago: following my enquiry regarding a weekly evening class in the History of Art, he persuaded me instead to embark upon a full-time BA (Hons) in Cultural Studies, subsequently employing me as lecturer and tutor on the course team and beyond! Thanks also to Dr Penny Lane, who insisted I should „consider‟ a PhD (and subsequently refused to take no for an answer); to Jenny Bloodworth, for her friendship when I needed it most; and to my supervisors, Professor Tony Shaw and Dr Steven Peacock, without whom this thesis would not have seen the light of day. Most of all, however, I am of course indebted to my family for their enduring patience, love and support: it goes without saying that I wouldn‟t have achieved any of this without you. i Abstract A principal aim of this research has been to establish the capacity of British Gangland film to articulate its era of production through the cinematic interpretation of contemporary concerns and anxieties in narratives relating to the criminal underworld. In order to do so, the study has concentrated on the analysis of space, gender and hierarchy within representative generic texts produced between 1945 and the present.
