    MEN, MEMORY, AND MEMORIAL: VIETNAM VETERAN THEATRICAL NARRATIVES By Amanda Boyle Submitted to the graduate degree program in Theatre and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. ________________________________ Chairperson Henry Bial ________________________________ Jane Barnette ________________________________ Rebecca Rovit ________________________________ Nicole Hodges Persley ________________________________ Adrian Lewis Date Defended: May 9, 2016 The Dissertation Committee for Amanda Boyle certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: MEN, MEMORY, AND MEMORIAL: VIETNAM VETERAN THEATRICAL NARRATIVES ________________________________ Chairperson Henry Bial Date approved: May 12, 2016 ii Abstract This dissertation is a study of Vietnam War veteran narratives and how they are presented on stage. I argue that these plays are a form of commemoration of the Vietnam War and those who fought in it. I eXamine three plays: Medal of Honor Rag (1976) by Tom Cole, Still Life (1982) by Emily Mann, and Tracers (1983) by John DiFusco, et al. There are hundreds of plays and musicals written directly about the war. Through a dramaturgical methodology I combine teXtual analysis, production research, interviews with two of the three playwrights, academic scholarship on the plays, my own staged reading of Still Life in February 2015, and select oral/written histories from Vietnam veterans to illustrate how the plays function as commemorative-storytelling of the veteran experience. Each chapter is a dramaturgical case study that could be used for production. The plays each have a wide range of topics, motifs, and themes, many of which I address, including the overlapping themes of wounding (moments of injury and psychological repercussions), coming home (surviving the war and returning home), and commemorating (via medals and memorials).

  • Glass Phillip
    PHILIP GLASS Compositore statunitense (Baltimora, 31 gennaio 1937) 1 Autore di musica classica contemporanea, è solitamente considerato tra i capofila del minimalismo musicale con Terry Riley, Steve Reich, La Monte Young, John Adams, sebbene, esaurito il periodo di massima produzione minimalista, contrariamente agli autori succitati, a parte forse Adams, si è progressivamente emancipato, scegliendo uno stile di più facile fruizione, postminimalista, meno rigoroso, e spesso volto verso la tradizione sinfonica americana. Dagli anni ottanta ha preferito prendere le distanze dal termine, mantenendo nel suo stile una forma iterativa, ma ampliando al massimo le possibilità espressive offerte dalla tonalità, e accogliendo sempre più suggestioni dalle culture musicali extraeuropee, interesse del resto già manifestato all'inizio della carriera collaborando con il musicista indiano e compositore Ravi Shankar. Tra le sue opere compaiono numerosi componimenti musicali di vario tipo, con una certa predilezione per le forme sceniche (teatro, danza, performance) e le colonne sonore di diversi film e documentari. Celebre, in quest'ultima categoria, la serie di film realizzati da Godfrey Reggio a cavallo tra il 1983 e il 2003 e basati su profezie degli indiani Hopi, nota come "Trilogia Qatsi": lo stesso Glass ha portato in tournée anche in Italia concerti live in cui il suo ensemble esegue le musiche direttamente sulle immagini dei film (prima esecuzione integrale: Torino, Settembre Musica, Auditorium "Giovanni Agnelli" del Lingotto, settembre 2005) Ha collaborato con vari artisti (tra cui Brian Eno) e pop-rock (tra cui David Bowie, di cui ha adottato i temi di "Heroes" per comporre l'omonima sinfonia). 2 Infanzia e studi Philip Glass nasce a Baltimora, nel Maryland, figlio di immigrati ebrei provenienti dall'Ucraina.

    Wisconsin Veterans Museum Research Center Transcript of an Oral History Interview with MICHAEL W. AIRD Reconnaissance Platoon, Army, Vietnam War. 2007 OH 1138 1 OH 1138 Aird, Michael W., (1948- ). Oral History Interview, 2007. User Copy: 2 sound cassette (ca. 120 min.), analog, 1 7/8 ips, mono. Master Copy: 2 sound cassette (ca. 120 min.), analog, 1 7/8 ips, mono. Transcript: 0.1 linear ft. (1 folder). Abstract: Michael W. Aird, an Antigo, Wisconsin native, discusses his Army service in reconnaissance platoons of the 101 st Airborne Division during the Vietnam War. Aird talks about his family’s military history during World War II, his awareness of the Cold War as a teenager, and a lack of discussion about the Vietnam War amongst his peers. After a year at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh, he recalls his surprise at receiving a draft notice the day before classes started. Aird touches on basic training at Fort Campbell (Kentucky), infantry training at Fort Lewis (Washington), finding his training inadequate in retrospect, and, during a two-week furlough before deployment, attending the funeral of a friend who had been killed in action. He recalls flying overseas on a commercial airplane and, due to engine troubles, being diverted from landing at Okinawa, where his uncle had been prepared to take him off the flight for a year of temporary duty in Japan. Aird speaks of his impressions upon arriving at the replacement depot in Vietnam and his reaction to assignment with the 101 st Airborne Division. Assigned to the 506 st Regiment, 1 st Battalion, C Company at Fire Base Currahee (A Shau Valley), he details going on a long introductory patrol in the mountains, adapting to the steep terrain and high humidity, and walking point despite having broken both his pairs of eyeglasses.
