With the rise of mass media, such offenders also began sending verbal communications to journalists and the authorities. Unsurprisingly, the 21st century has seen alienated killers promote their violent actions and homicidal identities through online communications: from VLOGs to manifestos, even videos depicting murder and corpse mutilation.

  • Laura Crysel Being
    Stetson University Summer Grant Progress Report – Laura Crysel Being the “Catcher in the Rye”: What is the Harm in Challenged Books? To what extent does a controversial book affect the individual who reads it? Research has failed to address the causal effects of reading banned or challenged literature. There have been some changes to the project since my initial proposal. For example, I have spent the summer reviewing previous literature and collecting materials for my project, some of which are slightly different from those I originally planned to use. I tried to select materials that would reduce the burden on participants (fewer items) and would be as close to what I actually wanted to test as possible, rather than simply replicating previous research. I have also changed the project to reflect the current funding available, hoping to seek out more participants through connections with the ALA and local high schools. Moreover, I reduced the amount of money offered for participation in order to ensure the study will be sufficiently powered. Possibly due to the sensitive nature of the project, I have had difficulty getting the study approved by the IRB, but will begin collecting data once I have approval. I have attached materials below for a more comprehensive review of my progress. Literature Review Mark David Chapman associated J.D. Salinger’s “The Catcher in the Rye” with his assassination of John Lennon (CNN, 2013). This, along with the content of the book itself, made the book extremely controversial. The American Library Association (ALA) reports attempts to censor such controversial literature every year (http://www.ala.org/bbooks/frequentlychallengedbooks/top10).

(See NY Rules of Professional Conduct [RPC] 1.2 [ALLOCATION OF AUTHORITY BETWEEN CLIENT AND LAWYER], and RPC 1.4 [COMMUNICATION]).

  • Coming of Age in the Global Village
    Oral Tradition, 2/1 (1987): 357-70 Coming of Age in the Global Village James M. Curtis I wish to analyze in this paper three acts of violence directed against public fi gures: Arthur Bremer’s attempt to assassinate George Wallace in 1972; John Hinckley, Jr.’s attempt to assassinate President Reagan in 1982; and Mark David Chapman’s unfortunately successful attempt to kill John Lennon in 1981. Each of these three acts was inextricably bound up with popular culture, and the sensibilities of the psychotic young men who committed them were formed by popular culture. Yet as of now we have no way of discussing or analyzing this relationship—much less of understanding or ameliorating it. To explain this situation, I turned to my favorite of Walter Ong’s books, The Presence of the Word (1967), where Father Ong reminds us that “The word moves toward peace because the word mediates between person and person. No matter how much it gets caught up in currents of hostility, the word can never be turned into a totally warlike instrument. So long as two persons keep talking, despite themselves they are not totally hostile” (192). It would seem, then, that if we could fi nd a way to analyze popular culture—and not simply praise or condemn it—we might be able to change its effects. Indeed, there is some evidence that this is the case. One psychological study (Leyens et al. 1976) showed that subjects who were taught to perceive violent movies aesthetically—in terms of composition and focus, for example—showed little if any change in their behavior after watching such movies.
