  • Ronald Davis Oral History Collection on the Performing Arts
    Oral History Collection on the Performing Arts in America Southern Methodist University The Southern Methodist University Oral History Program was begun in 1972 and is part of the University’s DeGolyer Institute for American Studies. The goal is to gather primary source material for future writers and cultural historians on all branches of the performing arts- opera, ballet, the concert stage, theatre, films, radio, television, burlesque, vaudeville, popular music, jazz, the circus, and miscellaneous amateur and local productions. The Collection is particularly strong, however, in the areas of motion pictures and popular music and includes interviews with celebrated performers as well as a wide variety of behind-the-scenes personnel, several of whom are now deceased. Most interviews are biographical in nature although some are focused exclusively on a single topic of historical importance. The Program aims at balancing national developments with examples from local history. Interviews with members of the Dallas Little Theatre, therefore, serve to illustrate a nation-wide movement, while film exhibition across the country is exemplified by the Interstate Theater Circuit of Texas. The interviews have all been conducted by trained historians, who attempt to view artistic achievements against a broad social and cultural backdrop. Many of the persons interviewed, because of educational limitations or various extenuating circumstances, would never write down their experiences, and therefore valuable information on our nation’s cultural heritage would be lost if it were not for the S.M.U. Oral History Program. Interviewees are selected on the strength of (1) their contribution to the performing arts in America, (2) their unique position in a given art form, and (3) availability.

  • Middlebrow Cinema
    1 HOLLYWOOD MIDDLEBROW A dialectical approach to 1940s cinema Chris Cagle Is classical Hollywood primarily a middlebrow cultural form? In his influential taxonomy of high, middle and lowbrow culture for Harper’s Magazine in 1949, Russell Lynes remarks, ‘If the lowbrow reads the comics, the highbrow understands; he is a frequent connoisseur of the comics himself. But if he likes grade-B double features, the highbrow blames that on the corrupting influence of the middlebrow moneybags of Hollywood’ (1949, 25). Tongue-in-cheek, Lynes is nonetheless observing that in comparison to lowbrow culture, even the lower-status genre pictures are too respectable and too sure in their morality to qualify as working- class culture. As Joan Shelley Rubin notes, Lynes’ article fixed the terminology in the popular usage in the United States (1992, xiv). However influential his analy- sis, though, other critics have not shared his assessment of Hollywood. Dwight MacDonald offhandedly states in his famous 1960 essay on ‘Masscult and Midcult’ that in contrast to the middlebrow ‘Midcult’, ‘the enormous output of such new media as the radio, television and the movies is almost entirely Masscult’ (1960, 204). Lynes and MacDonald were two of the most prominent post-war American writers to try to theorize middlebrow culture in response to the widespread emergence of a middlebrow culture over the post-war years. As a later commentator, John Guillory, writes, middlebrow culture is ‘the ambivalent mediation of high culture within the field of the mass cultural’ (1995, 87). As a major mass medium and entertainment form in the first part of the twentieth century, Hollywood cinema undoubtedly provoked a crisis for the status of high culture, but Lynes and MacDonald have opposing appraisals over whether Hollywood represented middlebrow or mass culture.

    Appendix 1 Number of individuals out of every 1000 who could not sign their name on a marriage register: 1896–1907 Male Female Total 1896–1900 32 37 69 1901–1905 20 24 44 1905–1907 27 27 54 355 Appendix 2 Extract from Beatrice Harraden, ‘What Our Soldiers Read’, Cornhill Magazine, vol. XLI (Nov. 1916) Turning aside from technical subjects to literature in general, I would like to say that although we have not ever attempted to force good books on our soldiers, we have of course taken great care to place them within their reach. And it is not an illusion to say that when the men once begin on a better class of book, they do not as a rule return to the old stuff which formerly constituted their whole range of reading. My own impression is that they read rubbish because they have had no one to tell them what to read. Stevenson, for instance, has lifted many a young soldier in our hospital on to a higher plane of reading whence he has looked down with something like scorn – which is really very funny – on his former favourites. For that group of readers, ‘Treasure Island’ has been a discovery in more senses than one, and to the librarians a boon unspeakable. We have had, however, a large number of men who in any case care for good literature, and indeed would read nothing else. Needless to say, we have had special pleasure in trying to find them some book which they would be sure to like and which was already in our collection, or else in buying it, and thus adding to our stock.

  • Middlebrow Cinema
    MIDDLEBROW CINEMA Middlebrow Cinema challenges an often uninterrogated hostility to middlebrow culture that frequently dismisses it as conservative, which it often is not, and femi- nized or middle-class, which it often is. The volume defines the term relation- ally against shifting concepts of ‘high’ and ‘low’, and considers its deployment in connection with text, audience and institution. In exploring the concept of the middlebrow, this book recovers films that were widely meaningful to contemporary audiences, yet sometimes overlooked by critics interested in popular and arthouse extremes. It also addresses the question of socially mobile audiences, who might express their aspirations through film- watching, and traces the cultural consequences of the movement of films across borders and between institutions. The first study of its kind, the volume comprises of 11 original essays that test the purchase of the term ‘middlebrow’ across cultures, including those of Europe, Asia and the Americas, from the 1930s to the present day. Middlebrow Cinema brings into view a popular and aspirational – and thus especially relevant and dynamic – area of film and film culture. Ideal for students and researchers in this area, this book: • remaps ‘popular’ and ‘arthouse’ approaches; • explores British, Chinese, French, Indian, Mexican and Spanish ‘national’ cinemas alongside Continental, Hollywood, queer and transnational cinemas; • analyses biopic, heritage, historical film, melodrama, musical and sex comedy genres. Sally Faulkner is Professor of Hispanic Studies and Film Studies at the University of Exeter, and author of Literary Adaptations in Spanish Cinema (2004), A Cinema of Contradiction: Spanish Film in the 1960s (2006) and A History of Spanish Film: Cinema and Society 1910–2010 (2013).
