Favorite Artists in Today's Music Wrld May 15, 2020 Created by (doja cat & lil uzi vert) (bruno mars & eminem) (taylor swift & rihanna) Dadaism On each of our pages, you will find a “guess the song” section. This was inspired by the Cut-Up technique, an aleatory literary technique where a written text is cut up word-by-word and then completely rearranged, resulting in a new text. This technique can be traced back to the Dadaists in the 1920s, a group of avant-garde artists located primarily in Europe. Since then, the Cut-Up technique has been used in a variety of other contexts. On our pages, we have taken a popular song from each artist, then used the Dadaist cut-up technique to scramble the lyrics and create a new text. We chose to do this to pay homage to and remind us of the avant-garde artists and the history of avant-garde zines. So, if you would like, take a shot at guessing the songs. The answers are found on the final page. We hope you enjoy our little game and, in the process, are reminded of how all zines began.

The appellants (collectively “Topshop”) own and operate the well known Topshop retail fashion stores. In 2012 Topshop began to sell in its stores and through its website a fashion t-shirt displaying a clearly recognisable image of Rihanna. The image was derived from a photograph of Rihanna which was taken when she was on a video shoot for a single from her “Talk That Talk” album. Rihanna is looking directly at the camera with her hair tied above her head with a headscarf. It is, as the judge thought, a striking image and similar images had been used by Rihanna in connection with the Talk That Talk album.

  • Teaching Latin Love Poetry with Pop Music1
    Teaching Classical Languages Volume 10, Issue 2 Kopestonsky 71 Never Out of Style: Teaching Latin Love Poetry with Pop Music1 Theodora B. Kopestonsky University of Tennessee, Knoxville ABSTRACT Students often struggle to interpret Latin poetry. To combat the confusion, teachers can turn to a modern parallel (pop music) to assist their students in understanding ancient verse. Pop music is very familiar to most students, and they already trans- late its meaning unconsciously. Building upon what students already know, teach- ers can reframe their approach to poetry in a way that is more effective. This essay shows how to present the concept of meter (dactylic hexameter and elegy) and scansion using contemporary pop music, considers the notion of the constructed persona utilizing a modern musician, Taylor Swift, and then addresses the pattern of the love affair in Latin poetry and Taylor Swift’s music. To illustrate this ap- proach to connecting ancient poetry with modern music, the lyrics and music video from one song, Taylor Swift’s Blank Space (2014), are analyzed and compared to poems by Catullus. Finally, this essay offers instructions on how to create an as- signment employing pop music as a tool to teach poetry — a comparative analysis between a modern song and Latin poetry in the original or in translation. KEY WORDS Latin poetry, pedagogy, popular music, music videos, song lyrics, Taylor Swift INTRODUCTION When I assign Roman poetry to my classes at a large research university, I re- ceive a decidedly unenthusiastic response. For many students, their experience with poetry of any sort, let alone ancient Latin verse, has been fraught with frustration, apprehension, and confusion.

  • An Unforgettable Performance by the One and Only, Taylor Swift. Even Ten Years Later, the Memories Vividly Remain of My First Co
    1 Lacey Silvers [email protected] English 1010 Kevin O’Donnell Final Essay December 2, 2020 An unforgettable performance by the one and only, Taylor Swift. Even ten years later, the memories vividly remain of my first concert at Thompson-Boling Arena when I was 8 years old. For as long as I can remember, I have loved Taylor Swift’s music. My mom would listen to her music as she cleaned around the house and eventually, Swift became my favorite singer. 2 Taylor Swift began singing with more of a country style and she has slowly transitioned into the pop genre now. She had released a few single songs, a Christmas music album “Sounds of the Season: The Taylor Swift Holiday Collection” in 2007, and one country album of music entitled “Fearless” (2008), before “Speak Now” (2010) was released. In 2010, when I saw her concert, she was doing the Speak Now album Tour. This was labeled as a country album; however, it was noticeable she may have been mixing in some pop throughout her music. I prefer her singing country style music but still enjoy her current pop music. She had only been in the music industry for a few years before making this transition of music style. Swift focused specifically on releasing music of the country genre from 2006-2010. The beginning transition point for Taylor Swift’s style of music was seen throughout the years 2010- 2012. Before her current albums, she sang solely country songs, and pop was a stretch for her original music. From 2014 on, pop is the only genre she focused on.

  • Speak Now Or Forever Hold Your Peace: the Constitutionality of States Prohibiting and Not Recognizing Same-Sex Marriages by Jessica Hoff
    Speak Now or Forever Hold Your Peace: The Constitutionality of States Prohibiting and Not Recognizing Same-Sex Marriages by Jessica Hoff Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the King Scholar Program Michigan State University College of Law under the direction of Professor Philip Pucillo Spring, 2015 INTRODUCTION The United States Supreme Court has granted certiorari to resolve the issues of whether states can limit marriage to between one man and one woman, and whether states must recognize same-sex marriages validly created in other states. 1 The Court has already struck as unconstitutional the Defense of Marriage Acts’ federal definition of marriage as between one man and one woman in United States v. Windsor.2 Dissenting in that opinion, Justice Scalia fatefully pronounced that he was waiting for the other shoe to drop—that is, that he believes the Court’s language has already laid the groundwork for the downfall of the ability of states individually to define marriage as between one man and one woman.3 However, Windsor and other Supreme Court precedents do not necessarily compel the conclusion that states must permit the solemnization of same-sex marriages. Nor do those precedents necessarily compel the conclusion that states must recognize such marriages that have been validly created in other states. Part I of this Note focuses on the implications of the Court’s recognition of marriage as a fundamental right in Loving v. Virginia. 4 That Part argues that, although marriage is a fundamental right, same-sex marriage does not fall within that definition. Therefore, state laws limiting marriage to between one man and one woman should not be subject to strict scrutiny as a matter of substantive due process.
