  • Bazinga! Uma Análise Neotribal Da Sitcom the Big Bang Theory Arthur
    Intercom – Sociedade Brasileira de Estudos Interdisciplinares da Comunicação XVI Congresso de Ciências da Comunicação na Região Sudeste – São Paulo - SP – 12 a 14 de maio de 2011 Bazinga! Uma Análise Neotribal Da Sitcom The Big Bang Theory 1 Arthur Carlos FRANCO OLIVEIRA 2 Mirna TONUS 3 Universidade Federal de Uberlândia, Uberlândia, MG RESUMO O presente artigo tem como objetivo analisar a sitcom The Big Bang Theory sob a ótica da teoria neotribalista proposta por Michel Maffesoli. A partir do método observacional, assistiu-se a todos os episódios das quatro temporadas da sitcom, procurando identificar em seus personagens elementos que os relacionassem a uma neotribo. Assim, foi possível concluir que os sujeitos analisados não atendem a todas as características de uma neotribo. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: sitcom, neotribalismo, televisão, humor. “Bazinga!” – Sheldon Cooper Desde o surgimento da televisão, suas funções têm sido as mais diversas. Informar, emocionar e fazer rir são alguns dos papéis que ela exerce no contexto atual. Suas atrações sempre buscam aumentar a audiência e cativar o público, sendo que, nos últimos anos, a televisão tem mais do que nunca se utilizado do público para fazer sucesso. Séries humorísticas, programas de auditório recheados de casos engraçados e comentários ácidos e inteligentes são alguns artifícios veiculados para divertir o público. E, entre os programas de humor, estão as chamadas sitcoms . O termo, segundo o Dicionário da Língua Portuguesa4, é uma série televisiva que aborda situações do dia–a-dia em tom de comédia. A palavra vem do termo inglês “situation comedy ”, que, literalmente, significa situação de comédia. Desde o seu 1 Trabalho apresentado no DT 4 – Comunicação Audiovisua do XVI Congresso de Ciências da Comunicação na Região Sudeste realizado de 12 a 14 de maio de 2011.

    “IT REVEALS WHO I REALLY AM”: NEW METAPHORS, SYMBOLS, AND MOTIFS IN REPRESENTATIONS OF AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDERS IN POPULAR CULTURE By Summer Joy O’Neal A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English Middle Tennessee State University 2013 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Angela Hague, Chair Dr. David Lavery Dr. Robert Petersen Copyright © 2013 Summer Joy O’Neal ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS There simply is not enough thanks to thank my family, my faithful parents, T. Brian and Pamela O’Neal, and my understanding sisters, Auburn and Taffeta, for their lifelong support; without their love, belief in my strengths, patience with my struggles, and encouragement, I would not be in this position today. I am forever grateful to my wonderful director, Dr. Angela Hague, whose commitment to this project went above and beyond what I deserved to expect. To the rest of my committee, Dr. David Lavery and Dr. Robert Petersen, for their seasoned advice and willingness to participate, I am also indebted. Beyond these, I would like to recognize some “unofficial” members of my committee, including Dr. Elyce Helford, Dr. Alicia Broderick, Ari Ne’eman, Chris Foss, and Melanie Yergau, who graciously offered me necessary guidance and insightful advice for this project, particularly in the field of Disability Studies. Yet most of all, Ephesians 3.20-21. iii ABSTRACT Autism has been sensationalized by the media because of the disorder’s purported prevalence: Diagnoses of this condition that was traditionally considered to be quite rare have radically increased in recent years, and an analogous fascination with autism has emerged in the field of popular culture.

  • A Comparative Study of Women's Aggression
    A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF WOMEN'S AGGRESSION Kiera M. Gaswint A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2018 Committee: Kim Coates, Advisor Jeff Brown © 2018 Kiera Gaswint All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Kim Coates, Advisor This project explores women’s aggression in superhero, science fiction, and crime film through a close reading of Wonder Woman, Ghost in the Shell, and Atomic Blonde. All based in genres that are traditionally considered ‘for boys,’ these films are different from other superhero, science fiction, and crime films because they feature female leads with aggressive tendencies. Using Dana Crowley Jack’s theory of women’s aggression and Yvonne Tasker and Diane Negra’s definition of postfeminism, I argue that Diana, Major, and Lorraine revolutionize the image of the lead postfeminist character by offering examples of women’s aggression that resist acceptable, palatable representations of women’s aggression. Whereas in the past there have been many representations of aggressive women, those past representations have been affected by postfeminism in a way that commodifies and limits their ability to be authentically aggressive. I examine how these new films – Wonder Woman, Ghost in the Shell, and Atomic Blonde - play into and ultimately resist postfeminist representations because of their aggression and how that aggression is played out on the female body. In the following chapters I analyze how the heroines in Wonder Woman, Ghost in the Shell, and Atomic Blonde disrupt postfeminist notions and prior images of women’s aggression by explicitly examining aggressive women who are not domesticated or justified by rape.
