The thesis investigates how these heroes' behaviour echoes a patriotic, conservative construction of the modern American as created through speeches given by George W. Bush in the wake of the events of September 11, 2001 . The thesis examines the hero in six primary sources: the war films We Were Soldiers, Behind Enemy Lines and The Great Raid and the action films Collateral Damage, Man on Fire and The Punisher. By analyzing the ideological subtext, political content, visual strategies and generic implications of the films, as well as the binary constructions of a selection of Bush speeches, and by reviewing historical representations of American male heroes on film produced in the wake of political events, the thesis concludes that the six films mobilize the USA's conservative viewpoint towards war and military action, and in concert with the speeches, contribute to an ongoing militarization of visual culture.

  • MAGNUM 28. März 2018 Stuttgart Im Wizemann the Road to Eternity
    MAGNUM 28. März 2018 Stuttgart Im Wizemann The Road To Eternity Tour 2018 Im März 2018 präsentiert die über Ländergrenzen hinweg gefeierte Rockband MAGNUM auf ihrer ausgedehnten Europa-Tournee mit „Lost on the Road to Eternity“ ihr inzwischen 20. Studioalbum. Man darf sich also auch auf neue fulminante Live-Shows in Deutschland gefasst machen. Gegründet wurde MAGNUM bereits 1972 von Sängerurgestein Bob Catley und Songwriter/Gitarrist Tony Clarkin, die noch immer den Kern der Band bilden. Der Name MAGNUM (lateinischen "das Große"), passt wie die Faust aufs Auge zur einzigartigen Band aus Birmingham. Denn mit Album-Meilensteinen wie „On A Storyteller's Night“, „Vigilante“ und „Wings Of Heaven“ aus den 80ern, „Goodnight L.A.“ und „Sleepwalking“ aus den 90ern sowie „Brand New Morning“, „The Visitation“ und „On The 13th Day“ aus diesem Jahrtausend, gehören sie zu den wenigen echten Giganten des Melodic Rock. Neben dem neuen und sensationellen Album „Lost on the Road to Eternity“ präsentieren sie mit Lee Morris (Schlagzeug) und Rick Benton (Keyboard) auch zwei neue Bandmitglieder. Auf einigen Festivals 2017, hat die brillante Band aus Birmingham schon gezeigt, das sie auch in neuer Formation sensationell harmonieren. Der permanent komponierende Tony Clarkin hat sich mit seinen Band-Kollegen auch beim neuen Album sichtlich ins Zeug gelegt. Man darf sich also wieder auf den typischen und einzigartigen MAGNUM-Sound freuen, dessen Erkennungsmerkmal definitiv Cartleys warmer und sanfter Gesang ist. Der charismatische Klang seiner Stimme hat ihn im Laufe der Jahre zweifelsfrei zu einer der wichtigsten Rockstimmen weltweit gemacht. Die bestehenden Bandmitglieder Bob Catley, Tony Clarkin und Alan Barrow kehren nun also zurück nach Deutschland und brennen darauf ein neues Kapitel in der 40 jährigen MAGNUM-Geschichte zu schreiben.

  • Chapter: Music Recommender Systems
    Chapter 13 Music Recommender Systems Markus Schedl, Peter Knees, Brian McFee, Dmitry Bogdanov, and Marius Kaminskas 13.1 Introduction Boosted by the emergence of online music shops and music streaming services, digital music distribution has led to an ubiquitous availability of music. Music listeners, suddenly faced with an unprecedented scale of readily available content, can easily become overwhelmed. Music recommender systems, the topic of this chapter, provide guidance to users navigating large collections. Music items that can be recommended include artists, albums, songs, genres, and radio stations. In this chapter, we illustrate the unique characteristics of the music recommen- dation problem, as compared to other content domains, such as books or movies. To understand the differences, let us first consider the amount of time required for ausertoconsumeasinglemediaitem.Thereisobviouslyalargediscrepancyin consumption time between books (days or weeks), movies (one to a few hours), and asong(typicallyafewminutes).Consequently,thetimeittakesforausertoform opinions for music can be much shorter than in other domains, which contributes to the ephemeral, even disposable, nature of music.

  • The Naturalization of “Good” Violence in Recent Films
    THE NATURALIZATION OF “GOOD” VIOLENCE IN RECENT FILMS ABOUT THE WAR ON TERROR by Alejandro Botia A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Media and Communication Middle Tennessee State University May 2017 Dr. Jane Marcellus, Chair Dr. Sanjay Asthana Dr. Robert Kalwinsky To my sons Martin, Simon and my beloved wife Carolina ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First of all, I would like to thank Middle Tennessee State University for giving me the opportunity of pursuing my postgraduate studies and experiencing again the fresh air of the academic environment. I would also like particularly to express my gratitude to Dr. Jane Marcellus, my thesis advisor and Committee Chair, whose guidance, support and encouragement were a constant source of motivation and an invaluable input for the achievement of this research. Special thanks to Dr. Sanjay Asthana and Dr. Robert Kalwinsky, the other two committee members, for their suggestions, ideas and materials that enriched the scope of this study. Last, but not least, my gratitude to the Writing Center at MTSU and all the editors (Jamie, Austin, Jane, Ellie, Stacey, Erica, Jency) who correct my grammar and made these pages more readable. iii ABSTRACT This thesis undertakes a narrative analysis of three recent films about the war on terror: Olympus Has Fallen (2013), American Sniper (2014) and London Has Fallen (2016) to study how these movies produce meaning with regard to the worldwide fight against terrorism and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Drawing on Barthes´ theory of semiotics and Foucault´s notion of Subjectification and Knowledge/power, this research explores the construction of the terrorist character and the Arab enemy in fictional narratives and how those meanings produce a body of knowledge which defines the imaginary space to think and talk about such phenomena.

  • THE TRUE STORY of FATIMA Introduction
    THE TRUE STORY OF FATIMA Father John de Marchi, I.M.C, Introduction Through no gift of the author's, but by the divine power, this is one of the very great stories of modern times. The remarkable events occurring near Fatima, Portugal, in the months from May to October, 1917, gain significance and new meaning with every passing day; the friends and followers of Our Lady of Fatima, for whom this volume speaks, increase each year by numberless legion in prayerful certitude that what we are revealing here is true. The author is a witness to this truth, having lived at Fatima for many years, and this plain book's pretension to importance is that it is able to present for the first time to Americans the full and documented background against which God has written His own prescription for peace. Much of this account is lovely and can be counted on to fulfil almost anyone's story- book expectations, as it tells of the shepherd children, Lucia, Jacinta and Francisco. But it is also a divinely serious narrative recalling, to the likely discomfort of many, the reality of heaven and hell, and bringing to necessary attention other primary matters too often and too long placed out of mind. It is hoped that this book, in its completeness, will provide a kind of text on Fatima, and the author feels obliged, in the face of such ambition, to list the documents on which it has been based. I have used the Portuguese newspapers of the period, especially the Seculo, the Diario de Noticias, and the Mundo, all at the time important pro-government journals, anticlerical in both policy and tone.

  • Mehdi Semati
    Mehdi Semati ISLAMOPHOBIA, CULTURE AND RACE IN THE AGE OF EMPIRE This paper offers a genealogical sketch of the figure of the Muslim Other as it is figured in the post-Cold War popular and political imaginary. It explores why ‘culture’ has acquired a putative explanatory power in the post-Cold War (geo)politics. In addressing differentialist racism, it posits Islamophobia as an ideological response that conflates histories, politics, societies and cultures of the Middle East into a single unified and negative conception of an essentialized Islam, which is then deemed incompatible with Euro-Americaness. In this context, the category of brown, once the signifier of an exotic Other, is undergoing a transformation in conjunction with the deepening of Islamophobia, a formation that posits brown, as a strategy of identification, as alterity to the Euro- Americanness, and as terror and threat. Keywords Islamophobia; race; culture; brown; difference; differentialist racism; Muslim identity; terrorism Introduction: ‘Security-Other’ In November 2006, six Muslim imams were removed from a flight from Minneapolis to Phoenix because passengers and the flight crew had become ‘spooked’ by ‘suspicious behavior’ on the part of the imams (Saunders 2007). According to an Associate Press report, the police listed the episode as ‘Security- Other,’ although some saw it as a case of ‘flying while Muslim’ (Freed 2006). When the removed passengers later declared they would file a lawsuit against the airline and ‘John Doe passengers’ for discrimination, an amendment was promptly introduced in the Congress to shield passengers from lawsuits because such lawsuits ‘chill the flying public’s willingness to report suspicious behavior’ (Saunders 2007).
