California January 2018 Copyright by Rvann Mackenzie Lannan 2018 CERTIFICATION OF APPROVAL I certify that I have read “’We’re all in somebody else’s head’: Constructing History and Identity in Xena ” by Ryann Mackenzie Lannan, and that in my opinion this work meets the criteria for approving a thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree Master of Arts in English: Literature at San Francisco State University. Geoffrey Green, Ph.D. Professor “We’re all in somebody else’s head”: Constructing History and Identity in Ryann Mackenzie Lannan San Francisco, California 2017 My thesis analyzes the construction of history and identity in the pop-culture television show Xena: Warrior Princess ( XWP ). I argue that the implicit allegory of XWP shows us that history and identity exist as interpretable and revisable narratives. I use the character Gabrielle’s chronicling of Xena’s adventures to show how historical narratives are consciously constructed by historians to tell one specific version of events. I then use her mediation of the major characters to depict how historians also construct the characters of history. I then show that similarly, all people read and are read by others, and that these readings influence identity construction. XWP shows that identity originates outside the self and is a product of constant dialog between the self and the other.

In 1974, Noogles cut short a promising future as a major new literary talent, when he crashed his dune- buggy head-on into the four-wheel drive pick-up truck of an off-duty state trooper while playing “chicken” out highway 13. Before he died, Noogles made cult history by serializing the novel HORHAY TRIUMPHS in underground fanzines. He is believed to have had access to a rare copy of Thomas Bul- french’s obscure “fourth” volume of mythology, The Age of Schnarvy , which has long been out of print, and virtually unknown since it was published in a very limited edition during the American Civil War paper shortage. Somehow Noogles either found or inherited a copy of this extremely rare volume, or else had read about it in M. P. Dugger’s de- finitive biography of Bulfrench.

  • Robin Hood and the Crusades: When and Why Did the Longbowman of the People Mount up Like a Lord?
    12fl_23.1_knight.qxd 2008/11/19 16:02 PM Page 201 Robin Hood and the Crusades: When and Why Did the Longbowman of the People Mount Up Like a Lord? Stephen Knight In the mid 1950s some thirty million people in Britain and the United States would each week watch an episode of the British-made The Adventures of Robin Hood. It starred Richard Greene as the officer-type hero, returned from the crusades and forced, through the vileness of the Norman lords under bad Prince John, to take to the forests to defend English freedom.1 As a nobleman and a returning crusader, Robin rode into the open- ing scene, and he is remembered as a cavalryman: the theme song, still widely known, goes “Robin Hood, Robin Hood, riding through the glen, Robin Hood, Robin Hood, with his band of men.”2 But what does this imply? Is it just Robin on a horse leading his faith- ful infantry? Or are all the band mounted, like fox-hunters, or lost cowboys? Or are the two lines alternatives: perhaps Robin might either ride through the glen on his own or might just be there on foot with his band of men? And why, in any case, is it a glen — a word connected with Scotland, not English Nottingham? This paper will discuss issues like these in light of the long-lasting Robin Hood tradition. But the most interesting question is simply where this idea of Robin on horseback came from, and where and why the crusades became involved. 1 For a description of the series and its reception, see Richards,“Robin Hood on Film and Television,”67.

    THE MIDDLE AGES IN USA CINEMA Date of reception: 19"' of Fehruary, 2008 Final date of acceptance: 6'h of May, 2008 The cinema is today one of the world's most widespread means of entertainment and spreading knowledge. Nowadays, over 3,300 million peoplc live in i~rhanareas. Al1 these people are porential consumers of films from an early age. No scientific dis- cipline can ignore the irnportance and significance that the seventh art has acquired as a vehicle for transmitting knowledge and wisdom. The Middle Ages is a historical period that the cinema has recreated since its origins and still does in recent epic films. The aim of this article is to examine the vision of the Middle Ages projected through íilms made in the United States of America. KEYWORDS Cinema, Middle Agcs, United States Ars cinematoyraphica, Medium Aeirum, Foederatae Arnericae Septeiitrionalis Ciuitates. l. Pedagogy of the image and the cinema The use of the image as a historical document, especially in media such as pho- tography and cinema, is one of tlie recent novelties in the field of historiography with different types of documentation being ever more frequenily used. Together with literary texts and oral testimonies, images also have an important role.' At the beginning of the 21" ceeritury, most of the planet's population with access to audiovisual media spends more time watching television or cinema than reading. In America, figures from the early nineties show that audiovisual media were used over fifty times more than books.' In 2008, these proportions must surely have in- creased considerably, as there has been a spectacular rise in the audiovisual media globally over the last fifteen years.

  • The Robin Hood Legend and Its Cultural Adaptation for the Film Industry: Comparing Literary Sources with Filmic Representations
    JOURNAL OF ENGLISH STUDIES - VOLUME 3, (2001-2), 37-46 THE ROBIN HOOD LEGEND AND ITS CULTURAL ADAPTATION FOR THE FILM INDUSTRY: COMPARING LITERARY SOURCES WITH FILMIC REPRESENTATIONS RICHARD CLOUET Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria ABSTRACT. The legend of Robin Hood has been going strong for over 600 years. In that time, the English hero has been a medieval revolutionary, an earl in Renaissance drama, a Saxon freedom fighter in the XVIIIth and XIXth centuries or a courteous robber. Nowadays the hero is especially known as a famous romantic film star. This paper is about the way the legendary hero has been interpreted over the centuries and the medieval texts translated and adapted to suit the taste of the new audience. This capacity of adaptation in the Robin Hood legend has been demonstrated in the twentieth century through the various film adapatations of the now legitimate bandit, rightfully fighting against coercive and unjust authorities. “In the early 1990s the Hollywood movie, Robin Hood – Prince of Thieves, captured the hearts and minds of millions, its phenomenal success reflecting a timeless fascination with the world’s most famous outlaw”(Phillips and Keatman 1995: 1). With such words, G. Phillips and M. Keatman started their bestselling Robin Hood – The Man Behind the Myth, an amazing thesis on the popular myth written in the way detective stories are. Robin Hood is certainly the most famous outlaw of them all, as popular today as when the stories first appeared over six hundred years ago. But let us make clear, right from the beginning of this paper, that Robin Hood never existed (Clouet 1998: 51).
