  • Black Women in Primetime Soap Opera: Examining Representation Within Genre Television
    Black Women in Primetime Soap Opera: Examining Representation within Genre Television by Courtney Suggs A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Media Studies Middle Tennessee State University December 2019 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Katie Foss, Chair Dr. Sanjay Asthana Dr. Sally Ann Cruikshank ABSTRACT Using textual genre analysis, this research studied representation in primetime soap operas Scandal, How To Get Away with Murder, and Empire. Two hundred and eighty- three episodes were viewed to understand how black female identity is represented in primetime soap and how genre influences those representation. Using Collins (2009) theory of controlling images, this study found that black female protagonists were depicted as jezebels and matriarchs. The welfare mother stereotype was updated by portrayals of black woman as hard working. Soap opera conventions such as heavy talk helped provide context to stereotypical portrayals while conventions such as melodrama lead to reactive characterization. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS CHAPTER I: INTRODUCTION……………………………………………….….....1 Background……………………………………………………...………........3 CHAPTER II: LITERATURE REVIEW.....................................................................9 Black Women in Scripted Television…...........................................................9 Television Effects on Viewers……………………………………………....14 CHAPTER III: THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK………………………………....18 Representation Theory……………………………………………………...18 Genre Theory……………………………………………………………….19

  • The Twist”—Chubby Checker (1960) Added to the National Registry: 2012 Essay by Jim Dawson (Guest Post)*
    “The Twist”—Chubby Checker (1960) Added to the National Registry: 2012 Essay by Jim Dawson (guest post)* Chubby Checker Chubby Checker’s “The Twist” has the distinction of being the only non-seasonal American recording that reached the top of “Billboard’s” pop charts twice, separately. (Bing Crosby’s “White Christmas” topped the holiday tree in 1942, 1945, and 1947). “The Twist” shot to No. 1 in 1960, fell completely off the charts, then returned over a year later like a brand new single and did it all over again. Even more remarkable was that Checker’s version was a nearly note-for- note, commissioned mimicry of the original “The Twist,” written and recorded in 1958 by R&B artist Hank Ballard and released as the B-side of a love ballad. Most remarkable of all, however, is that Chubby Checker set the whole world Twisting, from Harlem clubs to the White House to Buckingham Palace, and beyond. The Twist’s movements were so rudimentary that almost everyone, regardless of their level of coordination, could maneuver through it, usually without injuring or embarrassing themselves. Like so many rhythm and blues songs, “The Twist” had a busy pedigree going back decades. In 1912, black songwriter Perry Bradford wrote “Messin’ Around,” in which he gave instructions to a new dance called the Mess Around: “Put your hands on your hips and bend your back; stand in one spot nice and tight; and twist around with all your might.” The following year, black tunesmiths Chris Smith and Jim Burris wrote “Ballin’ the Jack” for “The Darktown Follies of 1913” at Harlem’s Lafayette Theatre, in which they elaborated on the Mess Around by telling dancers, “Twist around and twist around with all your might.” The song started a Ballin’ the Jack craze that, like nearly every new Harlem dance, moved downtown to the white ballrooms and then shimmied and shook across the country.

    Search for Tomorrow. An Epimodernist Future for Literature Emmanuel Bouju Université de la Sorbonne Nouvelle abstract: “The Future is in the way things are,” says “the Minister of the Future,” Timothy Morton, in a recent exhibition at the Centre de cultura contemporània de Barcelona, After the End of the World. Search for tomorrow: it’s already here and now. So how does contemporary literature address and envision the very possibility of a future as such? This essay argues that there is a reneweddiagonal force of the contem- porary called epimodernism. The epimodernist values are superficiality, secrecy, energy, acceleration, credit, and consistency. These six values are necessary for envisioning any future that doesn’t involve hyperfinance, rating agencies, systematic calculation of behaviors—and their consequences for politics. hen i first heard of the topic for the preparatory workshop of this issue of Dibur Literary Journal, it was said to be “contemporary visions of the future in liter- ature and art.” I don’t know why (maybe because I wanted it to be so) I thought it meantW not “visions of the future in literature and art” (the future within literature, “le futur dans la littérature” in French) but “visions of the future of literature and art” (le futur de la littérature), as in “this literature has no future” (cette littérature n’a pas d’avenir). I’m French. So I was quite optimistic. I do have a vision of the “future of literature and art.” But then I received another e-mail, with the final title: “Contemporary Visionsof the Future.” And I realized it was all about the future in works of literature and art.

    gyxegsxq2ri2yvh2yp2ihqe2sgi2f y qr pive2hedes2of2humEhums3 As the summer of 2005 rolls around, we have two more Burroughs conventions on the docket, one in Chicago and one in Toronto. Information flyers are included with this issue, so we hope you can fit one or both of these events into your schedule. Meanwhile, here are some recollections by our President, Bob Hyde, on how the Dum-Dums started. This memoir was first published at the 1991 Dum- Dum in Chicago, but since some of you were not there, we publish it again. Cheers! ... “Ye Editor” GENESIS OF THE BURROUGHS BIBLIOPHILES By Bob Hyde In the beginning . Vernell Coriell started publishing THE BURROUGHS BULLETIN in 1947, and sent free copies to anyone who asked. Soon after this, he was asked to form a Burroughs fan club, and this became a topic of discussion with various fans he met in his travels over the next two years. When Vern was in California in 1949, he obtained permission from ERB, Inc. to form a fan club and to call it THE BURROUGHS BIBLIOPHILES, but not to have any official connection with ERB, Inc. It was still a matter of discussion at the 1959 WORLD SCIENCE FICTION CONVENTION in Detroit where our Pittsburgh S-F group won the election to hold the 18th (1960) World Con in Pittsburgh. This 1960 event got us off on a firm footing. Since I was a member of the Convention Committee, Vern asked me to set up an organizational meeting for him at the convention. We figured this would be the logical place where a larger group of ERB fans would be gathered.

Bolig The advent of this online discography is a continuation of record descriptions that were compiled by me and published in book form by Allan Sutton, the publisher and owner of Mainspring Press. When undertaking our work, Allan and I were aware of the work started by Ted Fa- gan and Bill Moran, in which they intended to account for every recording made by the Victor Talking Machine Company. We decided to take on what we believed was a more practical approach, one that best met the needs of record collectors. Simply stat- ed, Fagan and Moran were describing recordings that were not necessarily published; I believed record collectors were interested in records that were actually available. We decided to account for records found in Victor catalogs, ones that were purchased and found in homes after 1901 as 78rpm discs, many of which have become highly sought- after collector’s items.

    Johnson Production Group Press Kit One-Liner When a struggling housewife poses as a potential buyer to help her boss close real estate transactions, she discovers her boss will do anything to close a deal - even murder. Synopsis Shelby Adams and her husband, Grant, struggled to get by. They had a hard time paying the rent on their house and keeping up with the bills in today’s economy. Something had to be done and Shelby was the one that took the initiative. Getting her real estate license, Shelby wanted to make money while Grant’s indecisions and insecurities caused friction between them. He had a low paying job and was resigned that it would be his lot in life. They were feeling the strain on their relationship. However, everything changed when Paulette entered their lives. Paulette was a successful realtor that claimed she saw something in Shelby that she admired. She offered Shelby a job to assist Paulette with her real estate ventures. It would be the opportunity Shelby had been waiting for. Yet Paulette’s business practices seemed unconventional. She had Shelby pretend to be potential buyer to pressure sales. She also had Shelby pretend to be expert on mold in order to claim there were no problems with a property. Shelby was wary but Paulette always had an answer. There was always an excuse. Paulette was good at manipulating people - including Shelby. After all, Paulette had a dream project she wanted to do and wanted Shelby to be part of it. Paulette had a financial backer and all she needed was time to put the deal together.
