Tolkien, “Beowulf: The Monsters and the Critics”) Introduction: Names and Blood in the Buffyverse [1] In Joss Whedon’s Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1997-2003) and Angel (1999- 2004), words are not something to be taken lightly.

    Roz Kaveney A Sense of the Ending: Schrödinger's Angel This essay will be included in Stacey Abbott's Reading Angel: The TV Spinoff with a Soul, to be published by I. B. Tauris and appears here with the permission of the author, the editor, and the publisher. Go here to order the book from Amazon. (1) Joss Whedon has often stated that each year of Buffy the Vampire Slayer was planned to end in such a way that, were the show not renewed, the finale would act as an apt summation of the series so far. This was obviously truer of some years than others – generally speaking, the odd-numbered years were far more clearly possible endings than the even ones, offering definitive closure of a phase in Buffy’s career rather than a slingshot into another phase. Both Season Five and Season Seven were particularly planned as artistically satisfying conclusions, albeit with very different messages – Season Five arguing that Buffy’s situation can only be relieved by her heroic death, Season Seven allowing her to share, and thus entirely alleviate, slayerhood. Being the Chosen One is a fatal burden; being one of the Chosen Several Thousand is something a young woman might live with. (2) It has never been the case that endings in Angel were so clear-cut and each year culminated in a slingshot ending, an attention-grabber that kept viewers interested by allowing them to speculate on where things were going. Season One ended with the revelation that Angel might, at some stage, expect redemption and rehumanization – the Shanshu of the souled vampire – as the reward for his labours, and with the resurrection of his vampiric sire and lover, Darla, by the law firm of Wolfram & Hart and its demonic masters (‘To Shanshu in LA’, 1022).

  • Cripping School Curricula: 20 Ways to Re-Teach Disability David Connor
    Cripping School Curricula: 20 Ways to Re-Teach Disability David Connor Hunter College, City University of New York & Lynne Bejoian Teachers College, Columbia University Abstract: As instructors of a graduate level course about using film to re-teach disability, we deliberately set out to “crip” typical school curricula from kindergarten through twelfth grade. Utilizing disability studies to open up alternative understandings and reconceptualizations of disability, we explored feature films and documentaries, juxtaposing them with commonplace texts and activities found in school curricula. In doing so, we sought to challenge any simplistic notions of disability and instead cultivate knowledge of a powerful, and largely misunderstood aspect of human experience. The article incorporates twenty suggestions to re-teach disability that arose from the course. These ideas provide educators and other individuals with a set of pedagogical tools and approaches to enrich, complicate, challenge, clarify, and above all, expand narrowly perceived and defined conceptions of disability found within the discourse of schooling. Key Words: media, curriculum, disability studies in education *Editor’s Note: This article was anonymously peer reviewed. As instructors of a graduate level course on using film to re-teach disability, we deliberately set out to crip school curricula from kindergarten through twelfth grade. Historically, representations of people with disabilities in film have been characterized as damaging, restrictive, stereotypic, pessimistic, and inaccurate (Norden, 1994; Safran, 1998a; Safran, 1998b). Acknowledging the profound degree of influence film exerts on the public’s consciousness, we actively seek to challenge such depictions. Using the insights of disability studies to open up alternative understandings and reframings of disability, we explore feature films and documentaries, juxtaposing them with typical texts and activities found in school curricula.

  • Throughout Its Existence Buffy the Vampire Slayer Was Most Commonly Interpreted in Frameworks of Philosophy and Mythology, Of
    Buffy Goes to War: Military Themes and Images in Buffy the Vampire Slayer Dennis Showalter [1]Throughout its existence Buffy the Vampire Slayer was most commonly interpreted in frameworks of philosophy and mythology, of literary criticism and gender studies—all of them intellectual constructions. Yet Buffy’s is at bottom an action format. Its inspiration was Joss Whedon’s desire to tell a story “where a blonde girl walks into a dark room and kicks butt….”1 Buffy as played by Sarah Michelle Gellar was a physical heroine, unintellectual and unreflective, consistently at her best when doing something. Even Willow, the group’s “mind,” was ultimately a problem-solver who acted before she thought. [2]Most analyses developing that concept focus on the aspect of Buffy as “transgressive woman warrior,” and contextualize it in an emerging “tough girl “ category of popular culture.2 That, however, is a perspective at once limited and limiting. In its developed form the action/adventure genre has three dominant expressions. The first is based on the questing hero. Its focus is a protagonist seeking adventure or redemption, usually voluntarily but occasionally under some form of geas or compulsion. The protagonist acts alone or at the most with one or two partners or sidekicks. The protagonist’s skills, whether natural, preternatural, or supernatural, are exponentially superior to those of anyone else, and are decisive in advancing and resolving the story line. This version of the action/adventure genre also has a strong picaresque element, with the protagonist 1 Kathleen Tracy, “The Girl’s Got Bite: The Original Unauthorized Guide to Buffy’s World , rev.

  • Flannery O'connor and Mid-Century America
    Flannery O’Connor and Mid-Century America by Virginia Grant A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama December 13, 2014 Copyright 2014 by Virginia Grant Approved by Miriam Marty Clark, Chair, Associate Professor of English Susana Morris, Associate Professor of English Erich Nunn, Assistant Professor of English Abstract Though the fiction of Flannery O'Connor has most often been studied from theological or psychological perspectives, her work is deeply entrenched in, and reflective of, the culture of the mid-twentieth-century United States. This dissertation argues that O'Connor's work makes purposeful use of the cultural issues of the mid- twentieth century, particularly in regards to the Cold War, and that O'Connor's novels and short stories are small scale representations of larger national and global concerns. The first chapter examines a pivotal scene of O’Connor’s 1960 novel The Violent Bear It Away and argues that O'Connor uses the stereotypical characterization of a homosexual man in order to feed on mid-century American homophobia. The second chapter explores the relationship between fear of integration in the American South and fear of Communism in O'Connor's short stories that focus on race. The third and final chapter focuses on the struggle between faith and reason in O'Connor's fiction and argues that these struggles depict a similar struggle between science and religion at mid-century. With a particular focus on the culture of the Cold War, these chapters elucidate the ways in which O'Connor's fiction encompasses and utilizes the concerns of mid-century Americans.

  • The Scots-Presbyterian Myth in the Novels of Ralph Connor and Sara Jeannette Duncan
    CONNOR AND DUNCAN: THE SCOTS-PRESBYTERIAN MYTH THE SCOTS-PRESBYTERIAN MYTH IN THE NOVELS OF RALPH CONNOR AND SARA JEANNETTE DUNCAN By Ian S. Pettigrew, B.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts McMaster University (c) Copyright by Ian S. Pettigrew, September 1991 MASTER OF ARTS (1991) McMASTER UNIVERSITY (English) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: The Scots-Presbyterian Myth in the Novels of Ralph Connor and Sara Jeannette Duncan AUTHOR: Ian S. Pettigrew, B.A. (Trent University) SUPERVISOR: Dr. Carl Ballstadt NUMBER OF PAGES: v, 83 ii ABSTRACT Ralph Connor's The Man from Glengarry and Glengarry School Days and Sara Jeannette Duncan's The Imperialist provide two different interpretations of Canada's national destiny and the role of the.Scots-Presbyterians in determining that destiny. The concurrent study of these three novels, whose authors were contemporaries, provides insight into one of Canadian literature's most potent and popular myths. Few critics of these novels recognize the importance of the myth of the Scots as nation-builders and heroes. Consequently, the study of this myth is amply rewarding and deserves serious consideration. The Introduction provides a brief Canadian literary and historical context out of which the Scottish myth has grown. Chapter One traces the development of the Scots' myth in Ralph Connor's two novels of Glengarry and attaches specific importance to the role of the protagonist in The Man from Glengarry, Ranald Macdonald, in the manifestation of that myth. Chapter Two underlines in Sara Jeannette Duncan's The Imperialist a different estimation of the Scots' place in building the Dominion also with specific reference to the novel's protagonist, Lorne Murchison.
