Dieser vor Kitsch triefende Satz hat mich seuf- zen, schmachten und genüsslich erschaudern lassen. Selbst ein paar Schmetterlinge im Bauch waren zu spüren. Meine Ratio hat sich verab- schiedet und jedes Mal, wenn ich etwas von Twilight sehe, höre oder lese, fürchte ich, sie hat es auf Nimmerwiedersehen getan.

  • The Origins of the Magical Girl Genre Note: This First Chapter Is an Almost

    The Origins of the Magical Girl Genre Note: This First Chapter Is an Almost

    The origins of the magical girl genre Note: this first chapter is an almost verbatim copy of the excellent introduction from the BESM: Sailor Moon Role-Playing Game and Resource Book by Mark C. MacKinnon et al. I took the liberty of changing a few names according to official translations and contemporary transliterations. It focuses on the traditional magical girls “for girls”, and ignores very very early works like Go Nagai's Cutie Honey, which essentially created a market more oriented towards the male audience; we shall deal with such things in the next chapter. Once upon a time, an American live-action sitcom called Bewitched, came to the Land of the Rising Sun... The magical girl genre has a rather long and important history in Japan. The magical girls of manga and Japanese animation (or anime) are a rather unique group of characters. They defy easy classification, and yet contain elements from many of the best loved fairy tales and children's stories throughout the world. Many countries have imported these stories for their children to enjoy (most notably France, Italy and Spain) but the traditional format of this particular genre of manga and anime still remains mostly unknown to much of the English-speaking world. The very first magical girl seen on television was created about fifty years ago. Mahoutsukai Sally (or “Sally the Witch”) began airing on Japanese television in 1966, in black and white. The first season of the show proved to be so popular that it was renewed for a second year, moving into the era of color television in 1967.

    WMC INVESTIGATION: 10-YEAR ANALYSIS OF GENDER & OSCAR NOMINATIONS womensmediacenter.com @womensmediacntr WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER ABOUT THE WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER In 2005, Jane Fonda, Robin Morgan, and Gloria Steinem founded the Women’s Media Center (WMC), a progressive, nonpartisan, nonproft organization endeav- oring to raise the visibility, viability, and decision-making power of women and girls in media and thereby ensuring that their stories get told and their voices are heard. To reach those necessary goals, we strategically use an array of interconnected channels and platforms to transform not only the media landscape but also a cul- ture in which women’s and girls’ voices, stories, experiences, and images are nei- ther suffciently amplifed nor placed on par with the voices, stories, experiences, and images of men and boys. Our strategic tools include monitoring the media; commissioning and conducting research; and undertaking other special initiatives to spotlight gender and racial bias in news coverage, entertainment flm and television, social media, and other key sectors. Our publications include the book “Unspinning the Spin: The Women’s Media Center Guide to Fair and Accurate Language”; “The Women’s Media Center’s Media Guide to Gender Neutral Coverage of Women Candidates + Politicians”; “The Women’s Media Center Media Guide to Covering Reproductive Issues”; “WMC Media Watch: The Gender Gap in Coverage of Reproductive Issues”; “Writing Rape: How U.S. Media Cover Campus Rape and Sexual Assault”; “WMC Investigation: 10-Year Review of Gender & Emmy Nominations”; and the Women’s Media Center’s annual WMC Status of Women in the U.S.

    Film Genre and Its Vicissitudes: the Case of the Psychothriller 1

    FILM GENRE AND ITS VICISSITUDES: THE CASE OF THE PSYCHOTHRILLER 1 Virginia Luzón Aguado Universidad de Zaragoza This paper is the result of an exploration into the contemporary psychothriller and its matrix genre, the thriller. It was inspired by the lack of critical attention devoted to this type of film, so popular with the audience yet apparently a thorn in the critics' side. The main aim of this paper is therefore to contribute a small piece of criticism to fill this noticeable gap in film genre theory. It begins with a brief overview of contemporary film genre theory, which provides the background for a vindication of the thriller as a genre and specifically of the psychothriller as a borderline sub-generic category borrowing features from both the thriller and the horror film. When I first started work on this paper I realised how difficult it was to find theoretical material on the thriller. Certain genre critics actually avoided the term thriller altogether and others mentioned it but often seemed to be either unsure about it or simultaneously, and rather imprecisely, referred to different types of films, such as detective films, police procedural films, political thrillers, courtroom thrillers, erotic thrillers and psychothrillers, to name but a few. But the truth of the matter is that "the thriller" as such has rarely been analysed in books or articles devoted to the study of genre and when it has, one can rarely find anything but a few short paragraphs dealing with it. Yet, critical work devoted to other acknowledged and well-documented genres such as melodrama, comedy, film noir, horror, the western, the musical or the war film is easily accessible.
