However, while the volume of available academic literature concerning the band is increasing, the Grateful Dead remain to be nearly ignored by academia and, to this point apparently, completely ignored by cultural geographers. This paper introduces the Grateful Dead into the field of geography. I analyze the geography of certain aspects of the band, such as its context in San Francisco, the carnival atmosphere of the entire phenomenon, the over 2300 tour dates, as well as the huge catalog of lyrics sung by the band throughout their thirty year career. I intend this thesis to serve as an introduction to geographic research of the Grateful Dead phenomenon as well as a basis for further geographic research of it, offering some ideas for further research in the final chapter. v CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION AND LITERATURE REVIEW Introduction The band the Grateful Dead holds a unique niche in the musical, cultural, and social history of the United States. While coming from various musical traditions, including the American popular styles such as folk, bluegrass, rock ‘n’ roll, and jazz, as well as European classical and marching band training, the members of the Grateful Dead banded together to create an original acid rock sound. The Grateful Dead as band and as phenomenon evolved to a certain extent out of the beatnik movement, but especially with the hippie and counterculture movements of the 1960s which were most prevalent in San Francisco, California. As time went on, the band experienced changes in their often evolving musical style, choice of drugs, and band personnel. Yet they continued to tour extensively for much of their thirty year career, establishing a unique and extremely devoted following along the way. Inherently tied into the musical, cultural, and social history to which the band is so connected is the field of geography, which, generally speaking, attempts to locate phenomenon in space and (usually) time. Cultural geography is one of the discipline’s long established fields. However, music has only in the past forty years become a topic of interest to cultural geographers, and the Grateful Dead have received little if any attention in the field. Because of the obvious vital connections between music and culture, and because of the band’s significance in both time and place to the social, cultural, and musical history of the United States, the Grateful Dead (both as a group and as a phenomenon) lends itself well to study in the area of geography of music. 1 This thesis looks at several aspects of the Grateful Dead phenomenon, to my knowledge for the first time, from a geographical perspective. First, I offer reviews of the history and literature of music geography and the academic study of the Grateful Dead, pointing out the lack of and importance of geographic work on the band. In chapter 2, I discuss the geographical concept of place, especially as it applies to acid rock as place music in San Francisco. In chapter 3, I present the idea of the carnivalesque, as elaborated by Mikhail Bakhtin, and apply it to the Grateful Dead phenomenon and its geography, emphasizing the spatial aspects of the Grateful Dead carnival. In a related fashion, I look at Grateful Dead concerts and the adherents’ (“Deadheads”) patterns of migration or quasi-pilgrimage as they follow the band’s tours from show to show, briefly touching upon religious qualities of the phenomenon. Analysis and mapping of these tour patterns yields yet another Dead geography, which I present in chapter 4. Finally, in chapter 5 I demonstrate the textual geography which can be found in the multitude of lyrics of the band’s repertoire. History of Music Geography The following section provides a brief review of the work in music geography. George Carney (1994a, 2), the most notable music geographer in the United States, writes: Human geography research has focused on virtually every segment of human spatial behavior ranging from industrialization to settlement patterns. It has concentrated on the material (tangible/visible) and nonmaterial (oral/spiritual) elements of human spatial behavior including the distributions and effects of value systems, languages, religions, architecture, politics, sports, and foodways. But for years, cultural geography largely ignored the spatial and environment components of one of the most significant traits in American [and, for that matter, World] folk and popular culture – music. 2 Lily Kong (1995a, 183-84) similarly points out the lack of interest in music and popular culture in general, claiming the existence of bias in geographical research towards elite culture. While this lack of interest in popular culture has declined over the years, there most certainly remains a partiality towards the visual. So, while relatively little work has been done in music geography, this is not to imply by any means that the connection between music and culture has not been studied in other academic areas. Perhaps the best example - the field of ethnomusicology - began to emerge in the 1880s and 1890s and is often associated with but not necessarily contained in anthropology. This was approximately the same time as both academic anthropology and geography emerged as professional disciplines. Though the field has now expanded, ethnomusicology

Kesey is a young, talented novelist who has just seen his first book, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nestpublished, and who is consequently on the receiving end of a great deal of fame and fortune. While living in Palo Alto and attending Stanford's creative writing program, Kesey signs up to participate in a drug study sponsored by the CIA. The drug they give him is a new experimental drug called LSD. Under the influence of LSD, Kesey begins to attract a band of followers. They are drawn to the transcendent states they can achieve while on the drug, but they are also drawn to Kesey, who is a charismatic leader. They call themselves the "Merry Pranksters" and begin to participate in wild experiments at Kesey's house in the woods of La Honda, California. These experiments, with lights and noise, are all engineered to create a wild psychedelic experience while on LSD. They paint everything in neon Day-Glo colors, and though the residents and authorities of La Honda are worried, there is little they can do, since LSD is not an illegal substance. The Pranksters first venture into the wider world by taking a trip east, to New York, for the publication of Kesey's newest novel.

Stepping out and passing through the pillared porticoes was a Who's Who of Swiss society-the head of state, national sports icons, former ministers and army generals-all of whom had come to celebrate the sixty-fifth birthday of Werner Spross, the owner of a huge horticultural business empire. As one of Zurich's wealthiest and best-connected men, it was perhaps fitting that 650 of his "close friends" had been invited to attend the event, a lavish banquet followed by a performance of Romeo and Juliet. Defiantly greeting the guests were 200 demonstrators standing in the square in front of the opera house. Mostly young, wearing scruffy clothes and sporting punky haircuts, they whistled and booed, angry that the opera house had been sold out, allowing itself for the first time to be taken over by a rich patron. They were also chanting slogans about the inequity of Swiss society and the wealth of Spross's guests. The glittering horde did its very best to ignore the disturbance. The protest had the added significance of being held on the tenth anniversary of the first spark of the city's most explosive youth revolt of recent years, The Movement.

Foreword In the Beginning … by John Perry Barlow LSD is a drug that produces fear in people who don’t take it. Timothy Leary It’s now almost half a century since that day in September 1961 when a mysterious fellow named Michael Hollingshead made an appointment to meet Professor Timothy Leary over lunch at the Harvard Faculty Club. When they met in the foyer, Hollingshead was carrying with him a quart jar of sugar paste into which he had infused a gram of Sandoz LSD. He had smeared this goo all over his own increasingly abstract conscious- ness and it still contained, by his own reckoning, 4,975 strong (200 mcg) doses of LSD. And the mouth of that jar became perhaps the most sig- nificant of the fumaroles from which the ‘60s blew forth. Everybody who continues to obsess on the hilariously terrifying cultural epoch known as the ‘60s – which is to say, most everybody from “my ge- ge-generation,” the post-War demographic bulge that achieved perma- nent adolescence during that era – has his or her own sense of when the ‘60s really began.

Surveying the area through a lens of geographic place and space, this research will look at the historical factors that led to the rise of a counterculture here. To contextualize this development, it is necessary to examine the development of a cosmopolitan neighborhood after World War II that was multicultural and bohemian into something culturally unique.

  • Nobility in Middle English Romance
    Nobility in Middle English Romance Marianne A. Fisher A dissertation submitted for the degree of PhD Cardiff University 2013 Summary of Thesis: Postgraduate Research Degrees Student ID Number: 0542351 Title: Miss Surname: Fisher First Names: Marianne Alice School: ENCAP Title of Degree: PhD (English Literature) Full Title of Thesis Nobility in Middle English Romance Student ID Number: 0542351 Summary of Thesis Medieval nobility was a compound and fluid concept, the complexity of which is clearly reflected in the Middle English romances. This dissertation examines fourteen short verse romances, grouped by story-type into three categories. They are: type 1: romances of lost heirs (Degaré, Chevelere Assigne, Sir Perceval of Galles, Lybeaus Desconus, and Octavian); type 2: romances about winning a bride (Floris and Blancheflour, The Erle of Tolous, Sir Eglamour of Artois, Sir Degrevant, and the Amis– Belisaunt plot from Amis and Amiloun); type 3: romances of impoverished knights (Amiloun’s story from Amis and Amiloun, Sir Isumbras, Sir Amadace, Sir Cleges, and Sir Launfal). The analysis is based on contextualized close reading, drawing on the theories of Pierre Bourdieu. The results show that Middle English romance has no standard criteria for defining nobility, but draws on the full range on contemporary opinion; understandings of nobility conflict both between and within texts. Ideological consistency is seldom a priority, and the genre apparently serves neither a single socio-political agenda, nor a single socio-political group. The dominant conception of nobility in each romance is determined by the story-type. Romance type 1 presents nobility as inherent in the blood, type 2 emphasizes prowess and force of will, and type 3 concentrates on virtue.
