  • A Second Sopranos Packet Much Like 12 Episodes of the Sopranos, This Packet Was Written by Matt Weiner 37 Tossups with Powers
    Not Possible, Even With Computers: A Second Sopranos Packet Much like 12 episodes of The Sopranos, this packet was written by Matt Weiner 37 tossups with powers 1. Immediately after Tony is informed of this action, a semi-conscious man mumbles "the fish is in my pocket." The results of this action are discovered as a man yells "Yo, Einstein, you should have seen me at the hospital." Authorization for this action is given by the sly phrase "I don't know" after contrasting the target of this action with a man who put up storm windows. Along with a related action that causes another character to wear a (*) neck brace in the following episode, this action is the second event intercut with a performance of the Welsh song "Ar Hyd y Nos." The target of this action is smoking a pack of Marlboro Lights with a red lighter and hears the pun "hijack, bye jack" before receiving a "Moe Green special" in his bathtub. For 10 points, identify this murder committed by Mikey Palmice with Junior present, which targeted a friend of Chris. ANSWER: killing Brendan Filone 2. Patsy is initially confused by thinking Mr. Caputo is referring to these people taking over the poultry store. After being corrected for referring to these kinds of "pricks" holding Meadow "hostage" at Columbia, Tony says that Italians are these people "with better food." In the much-beloved Columbus Day episode "Christopher," one-off character Ruben the Cuban is accused of bias against these people. Dr. Reis idiotically reflects on some (*) "tough" examples of these people at the Melfi family's therapy session.

  • «The Mother Country. Here They Make It Real»
    Originalveröffentlichung in: Keazor, Henry ; Liptay, Fabienne ; Marschall, Susanne (Hrsgg.): FilmKunst : Studien an den Grenzen der Künste und Medien, Marburg 2011, S. 304-317 Tanja Michaisky «The mother country. Here they make it real» Serienhelden auf der Suche nach ihren Wurzeln: THE SOPRANOS: COMMENDATORI David Chases Fernsehserie THE SOPRANOS, die von 1999 bis 2007 von HBO pro­ duziert wurde, verdankt ihren Erfolg sowohl bei den amerikanischen Fernsehzu­ schauern als auch in der medienwissenschaftlichen Forschung der autoreflexiv gebrochenen Fiktion eines Einblicks in die intimen Verhältnisse der zeitgenössi­ 1 schen Mafiosi in New Jersey. Dieser Einblick wird aus der Perspektive des am­ bivalenten Helden Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini) gegeben, und der entschei­ dende Kunstgriff besteht darin, Tony zu einer Psychologin (Lorraine Bracco) zu schicken, mit der er seine Panikattacken besprechen kann, so dass auch auf nar­ rativer Ebene motiviert wird, die Analyse seiner persönlichen Probleme mit jener 2 der Mafia­Strukturen zu verknüpfen. Darüber hinaus wird um Tony nicht nur der übliche Herrschaftsbereich eines Clanchefs konstruiert, sondern er erscheint als ein durchschnittlicher, von weit verbreiteten Problemen gequälter, wohlhaben­ der amerikanischer Familienvater in einer Vorstadtvilla, so dass aktuelle Themen der amerikanischen Gesellschaft innovativ mit dem Genre des Mafiafilms ver­ 3 knüpft werden konnten. Kennzeichen der Serie ist neben der pointierten und Da die Serie in Deutschland keinen Erfolg hatte, sind die meisten Interpretationen bislang in Amerika erschienen. Vgl. insb.

  • Hegemonic Masculinity and Un-Made Men in the Sopranos Jordan Senior
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by University of Huddersfield Repository WALK LIKE A MAN: HEGEMONIC MASCULINITY AND UN-MADE MEN IN THE SOPRANOS JORDAN SENIOR A thesis submitted to the University of Huddersfield in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Masters by Research in English Literature. May 2017 ABSTRACT This thesis is intended to provide a re-evaluation of The Sopranos in response to recent contributions made to the field of film and television studies regarding the rise of “Quality Television” (Albrecht 2015 p. 5) and the “male-centred serial” (Lotz 2014 p. 21) as a popular medium. The thesis will examine the degree to which the depiction of a crisis in masculinity in The Sopranos can be said to represent a patriarchal or feminist configuration of masculinity (Lotz 2014 p. 35), and to what extent it either reaffirms or repudiates Connell’s (2005) model of hegemonic masculinity. The argument will focus on three main areas; the embodiment of masculinity, the performance of masculinity, and the presentation of violence in The Sopranos. The argument of this essay is that The Sopranos employs gendered processes of pleasure, unpleasure and identification to deconstruct hegemonic masculinity as part of a demythologising project which uses affective learning to achieve its aims (Tan 1996 p.28), and in doing so, the thesis suggests that The Sopranos creates a space for imagining new ways of performing masculinity and new, feminist configurations of male gender identity based on the acceptance and internalisation of “prohibit[ed] forms of emotion, attachment and pleasure” (Connell 2005 p.

Consisting of nine episodes, the final season of the series features pivotal moments in which characters confront the sources of their depression and respond to them in a variety of ways. The study used both an intertextual analysis and Burkean frames to provide insight into how the final season argues one might overcome various forms of depression. It specifically considered depression related to one’s family experiences, their existential concerns regarding death and spirituality, and their indulgence in contemporary media platforms.

Co-commissioned by pianist Malcolm Martineau for a Poulenc Festival at Wigmore Hall in London, England and the Pacific Serenades Chamber Music Festival in Los Angeles, California, it was premiered by Martineau and tenor, John Mark Ainsley in May 2008. The American premiere of a chamber version took place at the Pacific Serenades Chamber Music Festival, in Los Angeles, sung by tenor Nicolas Phan in May 2008. An incredibly witty and unique approach to song, this cycle warrants an in-depth look and should be considered as a wonderful addition to the American song catalog. This document will serve as an in-depth look at the cycle and can be used by vocal coaches and singers alike as they prepare to perform the songs. It will also delve into the backgrounds of Heggie and Scheer, giving a broad overview of their work together.
