  • Using Digital Humanities Tools to Investigate Shipping Claims in the Third Doctor Era of Doctor Who
    The UNIT “Dating” Crisis: Using Digital Humanities tools to investigate shipping claims in the Third Doctor era of Doctor Who by Mara Katz Submitted to the Undergraduate Faculty of The Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Philosophy University of Pittsburgh 2014 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH DIETRICH SCHOOL OF ARTS AND SCIENCES This thesis was presented by Mara Katz It was defended on April 8, 2014 and approved by Dr. David J. Birnbaum, Professor, Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures Dr. Na-Rae Han, Lecturer, Department of Lingustics Dr. Lori Levin, Associate Research Professor, Carnegie Mellon University Language Technologies Institute Dr. David R. Mortensen, Assistant Professor, Department of Linguistics ii The UNIT “Dating” Crisis: Using Digital Humanities tools to investigate shipping claims in the Third Doctor era of Doctor Who Mara Katz University of Pittsburgh, 2014 Copyright © by Mara Katz 2014 iii Participants in a conversation commonly use terms of address to index interpersonal status and solidarity among interlocutors. Such terms are crucial in fiction, film, and television scripts in guiding audiences in their construction of the relationships among characters. In this thesis, I examine the use of terms of address in episodes of the BBC television drama Doctor Who from the first half of the 1970s. In particular, I look at the role those terms play in fans’ practice of shipping characters. “Shipping,” or theorizing the existence of subtextual romantic relationships between “pairings” of characters, is a common fan practice. I conclude that the shipping choices fans make do not appear to correlate with the use of terms of address between characters.

  • The New Frontier: Religion in America’S National Space Rhetoric of the Cold War Era
    religions Article The New Frontier: Religion in America’s National Space Rhetoric of the Cold War Era Glen E. Swanson Center for Scholastic Programming in Aerospace Education (CSPACE), Grand Rapids, MI 49509-0331, USA; [email protected] Received: 16 October 2020; Accepted: 3 November 2020; Published: 9 November 2020 Abstract: The origins and use of national space rhetoric used by NASA, the US government, and the media in America began during the Cold War era and relied, in part, on religious imagery to convey a message of exploration and conquest. The concept of space as a “New Frontier” was used in political speech, television, and advertising to reawaken a sense of manifest destiny in postwar America by reviving notions of religious freedom, courage, and exceptionalism—the same ideals that originally drove expansionist boosters first to the New World and then to the West. Using advertisements, political speeches, NASA documents, and other media, this paper will demonstrate how this rhetoric served to reinforce a culture held by many Americans who maintained a long tradition of believing that they were called on by God to settle New Frontiers and how this culture continues to influence how human spaceflight is portrayed today. Keywords: New Frontier; spaceflight; rhetoric; pioneer; nationalism; exceptionalism; manifest destiny; religion; NASA; astronauts 1. Introduction Frederick Jackson Turner claimed that the American frontier had shaped America and defined the characteristics of being American. Turner was an American historian whose “frontier thesis” posited that the Western Frontier drove American history and, as a result, explained why America is what it is. The frontier concept facilitated a certain rugged individualism in those who explored it.
