  • Laughing at Our Inadequacies: Contemporary Cartoonish Painting, Internet Culture and the Tragicomic Character
    Laughing at Our Inadequacies: Contemporary Cartoonish Painting, Internet Culture and the Tragicomic Character Amber Boardman A thesis in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Art and Design Faculty of Art and Design October 2018 Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surname Boardman Given Name Amber Degree PhD Faculty Art and Design School Art and Design Thesis Title Laughing at Our Inadequacies: Contemporary Cartoonish Painting, Internet Culture and the Tragicomic Character Abstract This practice-based project examines ‘cartoonish painting’, an emerging trend of contemporary figurative painting which draws on links between cartoons, humour, narrative, character and bodily transformation. In my practice, cartoonish painting depicts and comments on the endless desire to transform body and self as promoted by Internet culture and social media. This thesis argues that the social media driven desire for self-improvement—bodily alteration and transformations of the self—creates a tragicomic effect that unfolds through the devices of narrative and character. I examine the still influential, Romantic theory of character developed by William James. James articulated well-rounded characters evolve over time through a series of identifications with external others. This thesis proposes that James’s formulations about character retain currency, as people identify with depictions of idealised bodies, high-performing and socially sanctioned selves disseminated through the Internet. This thesis argues, however, that this aspirational selfhood and identifying with idealised others creates feelings of inadequacy. The ideology of a striving, perfected self in search of the ‘American Dream’ will be analysed through Henri Bergson’s theory of the comic. Bergson argued that the failure of machine-like pursuits uncontrolled by consciousness can be manifested through comic depictions of the human body.

  • Issues of Originality and Ownership in Relationship to Elzie Crisler Segar's Popeye the Sailor Man Stephen Smith
    Issues of Originality and Ownership in Relationship to Elzie Crisler Segar’s Popeye the Sailor Man Stephen Smith 1 Elzie Crisler Segar’s Popeye the Sailor Man is one of the most recognizable characters in American fiction. He was not the creation of one man but rather the product of a particular place, time and culture. Segar worked within an established tradition and was supported by the newspaper and film industries that depended on the approval of their intended audiences for survival. The newspaper comic strip was a relatively new phenomenon when Segar entered the field, the landscape had already been established and his contributions would not include inventing any new language or unique art form. What Segar did accomplish was to create a world of screwball comedy and engaging characters that satisfied the needs of the American public looking for escape from the hardships of the Great Depression. In 2008, with the widespread acceptance of postmodern art theory, it is redundant to speculate on whether or not comic strips are an art form. This is an issue only relevant to modernism. It was the high standards and professional competition along with the nurturing environment provided by industries that freed artists such as Segar from the burdens of business and allowed them to prosper. Segar’s Popeye existed within two well-established genres and his adventures provided one of the primary themes for both the newspaper comic strip and the animated movie when these art forms reached a level of quality that has not been achieved since. Thimble Theatre, the comic strip that Popeye was featured in, was originally published in William Randolph Hearst’s New York Journal American.

  • 1 1 MEMOIR Pakradouhi (Peggy) Kalpakian at the Present Day, April 2013, I Am 91 Years Old – I Am Writing My Child
    1 MAUDIE'S MEMOIRS/ PAGE 1 1 MEMOIR Pakradouhi (Peggy) Kalpakian At the present day, April 2013, I am 91 years old – I am writing my childhood and other memories at the suggestion (insistence !) of my daughter, Laura McCreary. I have been raised in America, I am a Naturalized American citizen, I feel I am American in every way, but in my heart of hearts, I know that a part of me is still Old-Country-Armenian. Sometimes (in my very old age) I wonder if I might perhaps have come from the Old Country to bring to my current American family, Old-Country-Armenian-Intensity to Love, to Personal Strength and to Courage. Also, I am indescribably drawn toward deep-seated feelings for Armenians everywhere. I arrived in the United States in the fall of 1923 with my parents and my sister, Angaghouhi. (The ship docked on the day of President Harding’s death. No departures from ship. We had to wait another 24 hours to disembark.) I was 19 months old and Angie was about 4. Angie was born in Adana, Turkey (December 26, 1918) where our parents met and married (October 18, 1917) and I was born in Constantinople (now Istanbul March 26, 1922) – on the road to re-locate in the United States of America. To my sons, daughters, grandsons and great-grandchildren – I hope that these remembrances convey to you my everlasting unconditional love for all of you. You will always be in my heart no matter where I am. Know always that Maudie loves you.

Millie Canfield feels isolated and held captive by her family. She dreams of freedom and beauty, only to see her attempts to achieve it repeatedly undone. She flees from family to marriage, only to experience isolation and captivity in a different form. She wants to be rescued, but she is oblivious to outside attempts to help. Millie also holds herself captive, torn between her perceived wants and obligations. She feels isolated, but she has isolated herself. When she at last achieves a measure of freedom, it is more a case of outlasting her prison than of actually escaping.

  • Eyebread by Marta Maria Figlerowicz a Dissertation Submitted in Partial
    Eyebread By Marta Maria Figlerowicz A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor Dorothy Hale, Chair Professor Charles Altieri Professor John Searle Professor David Bates Spring 2013 Abstract Eyebread By Marta Maria Figlerowicz Doctor of Philosophy in English University of California, Berkeley Professor Dorothy Hale, Chair I study works of fiction and poetry that explore the process by which feelings come to seem relevant or productive to those who experience them and to others. My research seeks to contribute both to literary studies and to recent debates about the political and philosophical usefulness of lived or represented feelings. Contemporary scholars often treat works of literature as sites that help us discover why it is politically or ethically urgent, or epistemically revealing, to pay attention to other persons’ and our own emotional experiences. The writers I examine do not stress forceful imperatives to attend to how someone feels. Rather, they call attention to the difficulty of knowing how intensely, when, and why we should do so. Each chapter of my dissertation focuses on one quality of feelings that, one might think, should make these feelings reliable sources of knowledge or potential change. These qualities include feelings’ whimsicality (which I examine through Wallace Stevens and Sylvia Plath), their urgency (which I examine by reading Ralph Ellison), their portability (which I examine by reading Virginia Woolf and F. Scott Fitzgerald), their persistence (which I examine by reading John Ashbery), and the quality I will focus on today, their immersiveness (which I examine by reading Marcel Proust and James Baldwin).
