  • Slayage, Number 20: Blasingame
    Katrina Blasingame “I Can’t Believe I’m Saying It Twice in the Same Century. but ‘Duh . .’”1 The Evolution of Buffy the Vampire Slayer Sub-Culture Language through the Medium of Fanfiction [1] I became interested in the evolution of fan language due to the story from which the title of this article derives, Chocolaty Goodness by Mad Poetess. Mad Poetess appropriates canonical language constructions from the Buffy mythos, changes them into something completely her own yet still recognizably from Buffy. Reading Mad Poetess led me to speculate that fanfiction writers are internalizing Buffy’s language and style for their own ends, their fanfiction, and especially for characterization within their fanfictional worlds. As a fanfiction writer, I find myself applying the playfulness I witnessed in Buffy, and later Angel and Firefly, to non-Whedon texts like Stargate: Atlantis.2 I also find other writers, whether familiar with Whedon-texts or not, who use language with a Whedonesque flair. Fanfiction is copious on the Internet, so I have chosen to illustrate the Buffy influence on fanfiction language from a small and admittedly personal selection. Though not a comprehensive reading of fanfiction language, this article is an introduction, a place to start that can be applied to all Buffy fanfiction and, potentially, further afield and applied to other fanfiction appropriated universes, perhaps even further, in the course of history, to mainstream English. [2] The idea of an evolving fan language is a bit confounding. Admittedly, language constructions in fanfiction are difficult to track from fanfiction’s modern origins in series like Star Trek, Star Wars, and Blake’s 7, to current fan creations related to series like Stargate: SG-1, Andromeda, X-Files, or Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

  • Alien Rumination
    Book Review Alien Rumination Alien Nation: Common Sense About America's Immigration Disaster.By Peter Brimelow.* New York: Random House, 1995. Pp. xix, 327. $24.00. Peter H. Schuckt It's a damn good thing for Peter Brimelow and his son, Alexander James Frank Brimelow, that Alexander was born in this country in 1991. Peter, a recently naturalized Briton, obviously loves the boy and wants him to live in the United States with Peter and his Canadian wife. But if Alexander had been born elsewhere, he would not be an American citizen, and if his dad had his way with our immigration policy, perhaps none of the Brimelows, dad included, could have entered as immigrants. The Brimelows are fortunate that the law did not and does not reflect Peter's radically anti-immigration prescriptions. And so, I shall argue, are the rest of us. Part of the allure of this high-spirited,' chatty, often personal,2 but otherwise uncharming book is that the author acknowledges such ironies. Indeed, he skillfully exploits them to construct a case for radical reform of immigration policy that verges on total elimination of immigration to the United States. Thus, he ruefully tells us that he feels "slightly, well, guilty that [Alexander's] fellow Americans had so little choice" in conferring a citizenship that Alexander, like many children of illegal aliens and temporary visitors, acquired through the fortuity of birth on American soil.' He shrugs off the * Senior Editor, Forbes and National Review. t Simeon E. Baldwin Professor of Law, Yale Law School.
