  • As Heard on TV
    Hugvísindasvið As Heard on TV A Study of Common Breaches of Prescriptive Grammar Rules on American Television Ritgerð til BA-prófs í Ensku Ragna Þorsteinsdóttir Janúar 2013 2 Háskóli Íslands Hugvísindasvið Enska As Heard on TV A Study of Common Breaches of Prescriptive Grammar Rules on American Television Ritgerð til BA-prófs í Ensku Ragna Þorsteinsdóttir Kt.: 080288-3369 Leiðbeinandi: Pétur Knútsson Janúar 2013 3 Abstract In this paper I research four grammar variables by watching three seasons of American television programs, aired during the winter of 2010-2011: How I Met Your Mother, Glee, and Grey’s Anatomy. For background on the history of prescriptive grammar, I discuss the grammarian Robert Lowth and his views on the English language in the 18th century in relation to the status of the language today. Some of the rules he described have become obsolete or were even considered more of a stylistic choice during the writing and editing of his book, A Short Introduction to English Grammar, so reviewing and revising prescriptive grammar is something that should be done regularly. The goal of this paper is to discover the status of the variables ―to lay‖ versus ―to lie,‖ ―who‖ versus ―whom,‖ ―X and I‖ versus ―X and me,‖ and ―may‖ versus ―might‖ in contemporary popular media, and thereby discern the validity of the prescriptive rules in everyday language. Every instance of each variable in the three programs was documented and attempted to be determined as correct or incorrect based on various rules. Based on the numbers gathered, the usage of three of the variables still conforms to prescriptive rules for the most part, while the word ―whom‖ has almost entirely yielded to ―who‖ when the objective is called for.

  • Queer Identities and Glee
    IDENTITY AND SOLIDARITY IN ONLINE COMMUNITIES: QUEER IDENITIES AND GLEE Katie M. Buckley A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Music August 2014 Committee: Katherine Meizel, Advisor Kara Attrep Megan Rancier © 2014 Katie Buckley All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Katherine Meizel, Advisor Glee, a popular FOX television show that began airing in 2009, has continuously pushed the limits of what is acceptable on American television. This musical comedy, focusing on a high school glee club, incorporates numerous stereotypes and real-world teenage struggles. This thesis focuses on the queer characteristics of four female personalities: Santana, Brittany, Coach Beiste, and Coach Sue. I investigate how their musical performances are producing a constructive form of mass media by challenging hegemonic femininity through camp and by producing relatable queer female role models. In addition, I take an ethnographic approach by examining online fan blogs from the host site Tumblr. By reading the blogs as a digital archive and interviewing the bloggers, I show the positive and negative effects of an online community and the impact this show has had on queer girls, allies, and their worldviews. iv This work is dedicated to any queer human being who ever felt alone as a teenager. v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to extend my greatest thanks to my teacher and advisor, Dr. Meizel, for all of her support through the writing of this thesis and for always asking the right questions to keep me thinking. I would also like to thank Dr.

  • SAM” EVANS 1 B-24 LIBERATOR COMBAT PILOT, 1943-1945, Serial No
    CPT CHARLES S. “SAM” EVANS 1 B-24 LIBERATOR COMBAT PILOT, 1943-1945, Serial No. O664988, ENGLAND Charles S. “Sam” Evans was born in Corsicana, Texas, in January 1922. His family moved to Goliad in about 1930, where he was graduated from high school. Owing to widespread unemployment during the Great Depression, at the tender age of 16 he joined the Texas National Guard based at Foster Field in Victoria, Texas. He had lied about his birth date, claiming it was 1919. Official records show that he later enlisted in the Army on 25 November 1940 when he was presumably 21, but was actually 18. Not long after joining the Army, Sam saw a notice posted on a bulletin board: anyone wanting to take an examination for entry to military flying school should sign up. He did, and was sent to be tested. He was selected and then trained at the flying school at Kelly Field near San Antonio. Upon graduation, he was commissioned a Second Lieutenant and awarded his Aircrew Badge (“wings”). After completing the school, he was transferred to Massachusetts and assigned to anti-submarine patrol, flying in twin engine aircraft. While still with that patrol, he was sent to Galveston – by this time, he was a co- pilot. He was then transferred to Bomber Command at Geiger Field in Spokane, Washington, where he remembers learning to fly B-24s. He was told that if he wanted to move from co-pilot to pilot and be assigned his own crew, he’d be sent for advanced training in B-24s at Peterson Field in Colorado Springs.

  • The Travel Diary of Johann Jacob Schmick of the Moravian Indian Congregation’S Journey to the Susquehanna, 1765
    Snow, Swamps, and the Savior: The Travel Diary of Johann Jacob Schmick of the Moravian Indian Congregation’s Journey to the Susquehanna, 1765 Rachel Wheeler, Indiana University—Purdue University, Indianapolis Thomas Hahn-Bruckart, Johannes Gutenberg University at Mainz CONTEXT In early April 1765, a few dozen Indians, mostly Delaware and Mohican, set out from near Bethlehem, Pennsylvania accompanied by two Moravian missionaries, Johann Jacob Schmick and David Zeisberger. They were headed for the upper Susquehanna, where they hoped to establish a new Native Christian community on the site of Wyalusing, a village once home to several members of the party, including the Munsee preacher, Papunhank.1 Along the arduous five-week journey, made even more difficult by the need to give a wide berth to backcountry white settlements seething with anti-Indian sentiment, the travelers endured extreme weather, suffered frequent food shortages, and met with countless challenges along their path. Several members of the party died along the way. One woman, Sophia, made the trip while seven months pregnant. We learn of this journey through the travel diary kept by Schmick who had served as a missionary among the Indians for over a dozen years.2 The diary is fascinating and deeply moving. It mingles the prosaic, the tragic, and the quietly heroic. It recounts the 1 On the history of Wyalusing, see W. C.

  • Dancing with Myself: Representations of Disability Within Glee
    DANCING WITH MYSELF: REPRESENTATIONS OF DISABILITY WITHIN GLEE By Lauren Levins A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Mass Communication Middle Tennessee State University 2013 Thesis Committee: Dr. Katie Foss, Chair Dr. Jason Reineke Dr. Clare Bratten ABSTRACT: Media have potential to alter people’s perceptions towards unfamiliar subjects (Davis, 2006). In the case of disability, danger can occur when representations are inaccurate. Previous research on portrayals of disabilities found a lack of representation and negative depictions overall. This study looked at the first three seasons of the television show Glee. Textual analysis was applied using Hall’s Encoding/Decoding, Dyer’s stereotyping, social construction theory, and a developed list of stereotypes. This study attempted to answer how people with disabilities were constructed and the perpetuation or challenging of stereotypes on Glee. Resulting topics involved storylines used to depict disabilities, interactions, and disability and agency. Stereotypes were found, but serious topics were also discussed. Implications involve the importance of accurate portrayals, the possibility to learn about disabilities, and the risks of self-stigmatization and negative treatment of disabilities. Further analysis of Glee seasons and comparisons of Glee’s depictions to other shows were suggested. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction……………………………………………………………………………...1 Defining Disability………………………………………………………………………4 History of Portrayals……………………………………………………………………..4
