  • Society for the Study of Childhood in the Past 8Th Annual International Conference Depaul University, Chicago IL September 11-13, 2015
    Society for the Study of Childhood in the Past 8th Annual International Conference DePaul University, Chicago IL September 11-13, 2015 Abstracts Abstracts are presented alphabetically using the last name of the senior author. The New Child: The Birth of a Psychological Subject Jutta Ahlbeck, University of Turku, Finalnd The paper examines changing notions of childhood in Finland in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Following scholars who argue that children and childhood started gaining intense medical and psychological attention in the mid-1900th century, the paper scrutinizes when and how notions of children’s psychological development entered Finnish scientific discourses. Whereas children’s somatic health (infant mortality, contagious diseases, malnutrition) had long been a societal concern, the new ‘child sciences’, child psychiatry and child psychology, addressed the importance of children’s minds and mental capacities as crucial to the normal development of the child. Scholars such as Wilhelm Preyer (1882), James Sully (1895) and Stanley G. Hall (1894, 1904) introduced new psychological theories on children’s minds, and their works reached and influenced Finnish educators and psychologists. The notion that the child’s mind is different from that of an adult, and that children are in need of special care and protection, resulted in intellectual, but also sentimental investments in childhood. The paper analyzes early Finnish child- psychological writings and looks at how the child as a psychological subject is conceptualized at the turn of the century. How was the child’s mind to be understood, how should a ‘normal’ child develop, in other words, what is a child? Paper Traces Childhood: Print Representations and Personal Reappropriations of an Idealized American Girlhood, 1900-1919 Diana Anselmo-Sequeira, University of Pittsburgh At the turn of the twentieth century, scientists began defining adolescence as a key developmental phase, distinct from childhood and adult age.

With the May 21st, 2005 meeting, On The Loose takes a renewed purpose in tackling the “loving study of the persons and films of Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy.” In the past few weeks, eh, months, ahem, years, bhhrr, near- ly a decade now, we have been steadily drifting away from the absolute purity of that purpose. Now, while we have not drifted so far away that the far shores presently reside on distant continents (or in-continents as may be the case with some of our members), it certainly wouldn’t hurt to put our shoulders together, row for the beach and hope sin- cerely that we wind up somewhere in the vicinity of Culver City. That doesn’t mean. however, that we won’t find our- selves now and again passing the Christie Studios, the Keaton lot, Mr. Sennett and company, or hanging from a telephone pole in the company of a certain cross-dressing ape friend. On the other hand, we will at all cost avoid wan- dering too far afield with the child-demons: Sunny McKean, Arthur Trimble and Mickey “himself” McNausea.

  • De Representatie Van Our Gang's “Sunshine Sammy”
    De representatie van Our Gang’s “Sunshine Sammy” Representatieonderzoek in Amerikaanse filmtijdschriften naar de verhouding tussen zwarte en witte acteurs van Our Gang Hannah Bremer (5705339) Begeleider: Judith Thissen ME3V15026 BA-eindwerkstuk Tweede lezer: André van der Velden Media en cultuur 2018/2019 Inleverdatum: 24-01-19 Blok 2 Woordenaantal: 8833 Abstract In dit bachelor eindwerkstuk is door middel van Amerikaanse filmtijdschriften – vakpers en filmfantijdschriften - onderzoek gedaan naar de representatie van de zwarte acteur Ernie Morrison. Hij speelde in de komedie Our Gang en stond daar bekend als “Sunshine Sammy.” Our Gang was een serie korte films die vanaf 1922 geproduceerd werd en ging over buurtkinderen die samen avonturen beleefden. Morrison’s personage is onderzocht door een vergelijking te maken met de representatie van zwarte acteur Allen Hoskins (“Farina”) en de witte acteurs Mickey Daniels en Jackie Condon. Volgens filmhistoricus Donald Bogle worden zowel Ernie Morrison als Allen Hoskins in Our Gang neergezet als pickaninny, een zwart stereotype. Hoewel Morrison wordt besproken in publicaties over Our Gang, is onderzoek naar zijn persoon en personage in de serie tot dusver beperkt. In de literatuur wordt al wel uitgebreid aandacht besteed aan het personage van de zwarte Hoskins (“Farina”). In de tijd dat de films met Our Gang werden vertoond, was zwarte stereotypering aan de orde van de dag binnen Hollywood. Hier hadden ook Morrison en Hoskins mee te maken. In dit eindwerkstuk laat ik echter zien dat Hoskins zwaarder onderhevig was aan deze stereotypering dan Morrison, maar dat beiden sterker gestereotypeerd werden dan de witte acteurs in de serie. Door de bestudering van namen wordt allereerst duidelijk dat in de bij- en artiestennamen een onderscheid ligt tussen de zwarte en witte acteurs en tussen beide zwarte acteurs.

  • Poverty Row Films of the 1930S by Robert J Read Department of Art History and Communication Studies
    A Squalid-Looking Place: Poverty Row Films of the 1930s by Robert J Read Department of Art History and Communication Studies McGill University, Montreal August 2010 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy All rights reserved. This work may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopy or by other means, without permission of the author. Robert J Read, 2010. ii Abstract Film scholarship has generally assumed that the low-budget independent film studios, commonly known as Poverty Row, originated in the early sound-era to take advantage of the growing popularity of double feature exhibition programs. However, the emergence of the independent Poverty Row studios of the 1930s was actually the result of a complex interplay between the emerging Hollywood studios and independent film production during the late 1910s and 1920s. As the Hollywood studios expanded their production, as well as their distribution networks and exhibition circuits, the independent producers that remained outside of the studio system became increasingly marginalized and cut-off from the most profitable aspects of film exhibition. By the late 1920s, non-Hollywood independent film production became reduced to the making of low-budget action films (westerns, adventure films and serials) for the small profit, suburban neighbourhood and small town markets. With the economic hardships of the Depression, the dominant Hollywood studios were forced to cut-back on their lower budgeted films, thus inadvertently allowing the independent production companies now referred to in the trade press as Poverty Row to expand their film practice.

In the years following the Civil War, the town of Abilene, Kansas is poised on the brink of an explosive confrontation. A line has been drawn down the center of the town where the homesteaders and the cattlemen have come to a very uneasy truce. The delicate peace is inadvertently shattered when a group of new homesteaders lay down their stakes on the cattlemen's side of town, upsetting the delicate balance that had existed thus far and sparking an all-out war between the farmers, who want the land tamed and property lines drawn, and the cowboys, who want the prairies to be open for their cattle to roam. 3.
