1 Kent Worcester Graphic Novels in the Political Science Classroom Kent Worcester Graphic Novels in the Political Science Classroom – Additional Resources My chapter explores the potential contribution that comics and graphic novels can make to course offerings in such areas as U.S. politics, comparative politics, social movements, international relations, and political economy. The chapter identifies twenty-four recently published graphic novels, memoirs, and nonfiction works that may be particularly relevant to faculty in the social and political sciences. It also discusses ways in which faculty can incorporate long-form graphic narratives into their lectures and course assignments, and addresses the issue of how to assess student learning when graphic novels are part of the curriculum. This online supplement provides information on additional comics-centric resources that may be of interest to political science faculty. It consists of three sections. The first reproduces the list of primary and secondary readings that are identified in the chapter itself. Each of the primary readings listed in this section includes a brief description of the kinds of courses for which these books may be especially useful. The second section lists additional primary and secondary texts that extend the range of thematic areas associated with the chapter’s selections. The final section identifies web-based scholarly resources for faculty interested in learning about the burgeoning field of comics studies. This section includes links to websites devoted to the scholarly study of comics and graphic novels as well as information about online and print journals.

    Copyright 2013 Shawn Patrick Gilmore THE INVENTION OF THE GRAPHIC NOVEL: UNDERGROUND COMIX AND CORPORATE AESTHETICS BY SHAWN PATRICK GILMORE DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2013 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Michael Rothberg, Chair Professor Cary Nelson Associate Professor James Hansen Associate Professor Stephanie Foote ii Abstract This dissertation explores what I term the invention of the graphic novel, or more specifically, the process by which stories told in comics (or graphic narratives) form became longer, more complex, concerned with deeper themes and symbolism, and formally more coherent, ultimately requiring a new publication format, which came to be known as the graphic novel. This format was invented in fits and starts throughout the twentieth century, and I argue throughout this dissertation that only by examining the nuances of the publishing history of twentieth-century comics can we fully understand the process by which the graphic novel emerged. In particular, I show that previous studies of the history of comics tend to focus on one of two broad genealogies: 1) corporate, commercially-oriented, typically superhero-focused comic books, produced by teams of artists; 2) individually-produced, counter-cultural, typically autobiographical underground comix and their subsequent progeny. In this dissertation, I bring these two genealogies together, demonstrating that we can only truly understand the evolution of comics toward the graphic novel format by considering the movement of artists between these two camps and the works that they produced along the way.

    ENGL 370 Graphic Novel – Winter Session 2014 Instructor: Will Eggers Required Texts: McCloud, Scott. Understanding Comics. Miller, Frank. Batman: the Dark Knight Returns. Moore, Alan. Watchmen. Kirkman. The Walking Dead: Book 1. Days Gone By.(Compendium not required, but you may want.) O’Malley, Brian Lee. Scott Pilgrim 1-6. Speigelman, Art. The Complete Maus. Mazzuchelli, David. Asterios Polyp. Bechdel, Alison. Fun Home. Cruse, Howard. Stuck Rubber Baby, Sacco, Joe. Safe Area Goradze. Ideas to explore: Since the ground-breaking publication of Art Spiegelman's Maus in 1993, "graphic novels" have entered the global cultural mainstream. A truly multicultural genre, comics created by men and women around the world now appear in U.S. high school and college curricula, hold the attention of academic critics, and earn big box-office returns in cinematic adaptations. In this course we will survey the current field and read works of fiction (such as THE WATCHMEN), autobiography (MAUS, FUN HOME), journalism (SAFE AREA GORAZDE), and what we might call "comic theory" (UNDERSTANDING COMICS). And just as comics have become a global medium, they are perhaps inherently "postmodern." Many contemporary comics are self-conscious about questions of form and theories of representation, a characteristic that will help us formulate new versions of the questions often considered in literary study. How do words and pictures drawn together in sequential narratives tell stories? What different skills are needed to comprehend this complex play of image, language, and time? What can graphic books do that other books cannot, and what are the constraints that shape this form? In order to better understand these works and the culture that produced them, we will consider them through lenses including history, gender, psychology, and class, as well as their visual elements.

  • The Goddess of Buttercups and Daisies PDF Book
    THE GODDESS OF BUTTERCUPS AND DAISIES PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Martin Millar | 192 pages | 02 Apr 2015 | Little, Brown Book Group | 9780349407142 | English | London, United Kingdom The Goddess of Buttercups and Daisies PDF Book His early work anticipated the urban fantasy boom: in what is still his best-known book, The Good Fairies of New York , a pair of Scottish thistle fairies wake up hungover in the Big Apple, and the ghost of Johnny Thunders searches for a lost guitar. For all its cheerfulness and the sometimes air-headed optimism of a couple of the main characters, though, it's by no means a stupid book. Threads collapsed expanded unthreaded. Original Title. And curiously it also alludes to a part of his career unmentioned in the author blurb. Buttercups and Daisies offers clues. A fan of Martin's Kalix series, I was initially distracted by the similarities between some of the characters in this book and those in the Kalix series. Average rating 3. May 23, Elena Gaillard rated it really liked it Shelves: fantasy. Even so, it was still a fun, quick read that provided a nice break from the world. As he does in Peace, Aristophanes mocks the lower-class, populist politician Hyperbolus, but Millar is smart enough to include a speech where the playwright is upbraided for his aristocratic disdain. At the same time, Aristophanes, the great comic dramatist, is struggling with the production of his latest offering for the Dionysia Festival — a controversial new work entitled Peace. Mar 13, Ry Herman rated it really liked it Shelves: humor , fantasy , historical-fiction.
