Stephen King's books have become a lightning rod for the tensions around issues of including "mass market" popular literature in middle and 1.i.gh school English classes and of who chooses what students read. King's fi'tion is among the most popular of "pop" literature, and among the most controversial. These essays spotlight the ways in which King's work intersects with the themes of the literary canon and its construction and maintenance, censorship in public schools, and the need for adolescent readers to be able to choose books in school reading programs. The essays and their authors are: (1) "Reading Stephen King: An Ethnography of an Event" (Brenda Miller Power); (2) "I Want to Be Typhoid Stevie" (Stephen King); (3) "King and Controversy in Classrooms: A Conversation between Teachers and Students" (Kelly Chandler and others); (4) "Of Cornflakes, Hot Dogs, Cabbages, and King" (Jeffrey D.

  • La Marche Des Morts
    1 La marche des morts Au commencement, il y avait un livre. Au commence- ment, il y a toujours un livre. Le comic book The Walking Dead paraît pour la première fois en 2003. D’abord pressenti pour être une bande dessinée de science-fiction sur fond d’invasion zombie et portant le joli nom de Dead Planet, le projet est revu et corrigé à maintes reprises. L’aspect SF est remisé au placard, et le cadre de l’histoire nous plonge dans une époque contemporaine, à ceci près qu’une épidémie galopante a transformé une très grande partie de l’humanité en zombies. Très vite, l’œuvre en noir et blanc remporte un énorme succès. Pensez donc, le premier numéro de la BD sorti en 2003 à seulement 7300 exemplaires est aujourd’hui vendu à plus de 10 000 euros. Les chiffres de vente donnent le vertige. Le numéro 100, édité avec 10 couvertures diffé- rentes, s’est vendu à près de 400 000 exemplaires rien qu’aux États-Unis. En France aussi, le phénomène TWD affole les compteurs. Tous les spécialistes le confirment : c’est le grand hit comics des 15 dernières années. Bien que 7 THE WALKING DEAD DÉCRYPTÉ TWD ne soit arrivé dans l’Hexagone qu’en 2007, chaque tome est aujourd’hui édité à plus de 100 000 exemplaires. Plus de 2 millions d’albums ont été écoulés en moins de 10 ans, et la licence représente près de la moitié des ventes de comics dans notre pays. Rien qu’en 2013, le numéro 1 a été acquis par plus de 50 000 curieux.

Welcome to Dead by Dawn! It’s sound advice to be more afraid of the living than the dead. Sure, the dead can kill you, but at least they’re easy to spot. In this year’s programme too many of the monsters will smile when they meet you, and will still be smiling when they lock you in a meat freezer. Or encourage you onto a ledge. Or offer to share their martini. You could try politely declining their kind offer, see how that works out... Dead by Dawn is a discovery festival which exists to showcase potential and vibrant emerging talent, but also aims to screen the widest possible range of what can be described as horror both in feature and short form.

It is finally done! ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank the following people for their help and encouragement, as well as giving of their time and talent, throughout this thesis process. First, I would like to thank my parents and other family members for their time, support, love, and monetary aid, without which I would not even be writing this thesis. I would especially like to thank my parents for their assistance in getting the Orlando theater to help me with the surveys. In the same way, I would like to thank the theaters that allowed me the time and opportunity to get people’s ideas on paper about the movies. Special thanks go to Cinemark Theater in Orlando and Gator Cinemas in Gainesville. They both get ten stars! A special thank-you goes to fellow graduate student Todd Holmes, who got me through the first leg of this thesis when we originally proposed its beginning for our research class. He was there to give this baby life. I would also like to thank my chair, James Babanikos, for taking time to listen to this thesis idea and running with it.
