Re-Examining Discourses of Muslim Terrorism in Hollywood Beyond
Reid • 95 Te Age of Sympathy: Re-examining discourses of Muslim terrorism in Hollywood beyond the ‘pre-’ and ‘post-9/11’ dichotomy Jay Reid – University of Adelaide [email protected] Te events of September 11 did not herald a new age of terrorism, for terrorism had been primarily fuelled by religion since the 1980s; however, the 9/11 attacks did herald changes in the representation of terrorism in Hollywood cinema, with an increased frequency of Muslim antagonists, more sinister and deadly than their pre-9/11 compatriots. While pre- and post-9/11 images have been investigated in previous studies, the continued evolution of Middle Eastern characters in the decade since the attacks has rarely been discussed. Tis paper examines six Hollywood action flms released between 1991 and 2011 (a decade prior to and after the attacks) through an Orientalism critique, investigating how representations of Muslim terrorists in Western popular culture have evolved. Te fndings support earlier research on a discursive shift immediately post-9/11, but also reveal a second shift in representation, occurring approximately half a decade after the attacks. Cinematic representations immediately after the attacks positioned Muslim terrorists as sympathetic individuals seduced to commit acts of terrorism by religious fundamentalism. However, from 2007 onwards, representations again change, framing onscreen Muslim terrorists as willing participants in violent activities motivated by Islamic fundamentalism, with an absence of the earlier sympathetic positioning. Tis research builds on existing studies into cinematic representations of terrorism and extends our knowledge of the cinematic discourses of the Hollywood Muslim terrorist, a subject to which continued media and public attention is directed. -

Pastor's Page – January 2006
PASTOR’S PAGE – JANUARY 2006 I’m not big on resolutions around the New Year. It seems that if I know that I should do something for my health, or something positive in my life (like simplifying or discarding things that are no longer used) I don’t need to wait until the beginning of a new year. I can start those things anytime. Also, it has always seemed that so many of those well intentioned resolutions made on January 1 have gone by the wayside around January 4 th , so why bother. But there are some resolutions that I think we would do well to include in our lives. Not all of them, for they are a tall order when taken all together. But, perhaps you might start with one. And then, when it has become a planned part of your life you can move on to another. I want to warn you, don’t expect immediate results on any of these. They need multitudes resolving to be involved to become reality. But, work diligently on the one that you pick, see if you can find reports of things improving in your particular area, and be proud that during the coming year you are part of the solution to something. Resolve to do something about the health care mess in our nation, so that we aren’t last among nations in the first world in the health care that we provide for our children, adults and seniors. Resolve to do something to start fixing the infrastructure of our country, so that roads are repaired and levees strengthened and parklands are protected. -

Call for Contributions Fan Phenomena: Game of Thrones with Five Books
Call for Contributions Fan Phenomena: Game of Thrones With five books and approximately eight million words published thus far in the Song of Ice and Fire series (1996-ongoing) and the sixth season of HBO's Game of Thrones currently airing, we are seeing the beginnings of a school of criticism devoted to George R.R. Martin’s works and their peculiar brand of deconstructive and in many ways postmodern interpretations of the fantasy genre and medievalism. Often positioned as the grittier antithesis of J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-Earth, Martin's narrative focuses on the darker side of chivalry and heroism, stripping away these higher ideals to reveal the greed, amorality, and lust for power underpinning them. The Fan Phenomena series from Intellect Press is seeking contributors for a new volume on Game of Thrones. This series explores and decodes the fascination we have with what constitutes an iconic or cult phenomenon and how a particular person, TV show, or film character/film infiltrates its way into the public consciousness. Game of Thrones has done precisely that, first subtly and on the fringes as the book series A Song of Ice and Fire, before the lush production values and dynamic cast of the HBO series made it a worldwide blockbuster. Some suggested topics are listed below, although feel free to propose something not on this list. The only requirement is that your proposed chapter focus not just on the show or the books, but on fans and fan responses to either or both. • Demographics of Game of Thrones fans o Who makes up the Game of Thrones fandom? How does the actual fandom differ from the show's perceived/intended audience? • Location tourism o Fans who visit filming locations for the HBO series in Ireland, Croatia, Spain, etc; how these locations are capitalising on Game of Thrones fans • The cast of the HBO series and their engagement with fans/social media o e.g. -
