A Review by Aidan Power, Universität Bremen In Changing Places, the first instalment of David Lodge’s timeless campus trilogy, Morris Zapp, Professor of English at Euphoria College and doyen of Jane Austen studies, announces his intention to write the definitive examination of the author’s work, a towering analysis, exhaustive in scope, that would: examine the novels from every conceivable angle, historical, biographical, rhetorical, mythical, Freudian, Jungian, existentialist, Marxist, structuralist, Christian-allegorical, ethical, exponential, linguistic, phenomenological, archetypal, you name it; so that when each commentary was written there would be simply nothing further to say about the novel in question. -
Anne Sexton and Sylvia Plath from a Kristevan Perspective
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by OpenGrey Repository Transforming the Law of One: Anne Sexton and Sylvia Plath from a Kristevan Perspective A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Areen Ghazi Khalifeh School of Arts, Brunel University November 2010 ii Abstract A recent trend in the study of Anne Sexton and Sylvia Plath often dissociates Confessional poetry from the subject of the writer and her biography, claiming that the artist is in full control of her work and that her art does not have naïve mimetic qualities. However, this study proposes that subjective attributes, namely negativity and abjection, enable a powerful transformative dialectic. Specifically, it demonstrates that an emphasis on the subjective can help manifest the process of transgressing the law of One. The law of One asserts a patriarchal, monotheistic law as a social closed system and can be opposed to the bodily drives and its open dynamism. This project asserts that unique, creative voices are derived from that which is individual and personal and thus, readings of Confessional poetry are in fact best served by acknowledgment of the subjective. In order to stress the subject of the artist in Confessionalism, this study employed a psychoanalytical Kristevan approach. This enables consideration of the subject not only in terms of the straightforward narration of her life, but also in relation to her poetic language and the process of creativity where instinctual drives are at work. This study further applies a feminist reading to the subject‘s poetic language and its ability to transgress the law, not necessarily in the political, macrocosmic sense of the word, but rather on the microcosmic, subjective level. -

Gert Buelens requirements for the degree of “Master in de Taal- en letterkunde: Italiaans-Engels” 2016 – 2017 Serediuc 2 Acknowledgements When I first started watching Mad Men it had never occurred to me that one day, I would write my dissertation about the show in order to obtain my master’s degree at the University of Ghent – and yet here we are a few years later. This pop-cultural topic of my choice did not always facilitate my research nor my writing process, but it did to a large extent made me greatly enjoy this entire journey. After experiencing some difficulties in finding a suitable subject matter, it was my supervisor who pointed me in the right direction. Therefore, I would like to express my gratitude to prof. dr. Gert Buelens, who not only helped me define my subject, but who has also put a lot of work in giving me thorough and supportive feedback. Furthermore, I would like to thank my friends and family for their amazing support not only during the realization of this master thesis, but throughout the entire duration of my academic studies.

1 Television As Psychical Object: Mad Men and the Value Of
Television as psychical object: Mad Men and the value of psychoanalysis for television scholarship Caroline Bainbridge Address for correspondence: Dept. Media, Culture and Language University of Roehampton Roehampton Lane London SW15 5SL [email protected] Abstract: Claims that Mad Men (2007-15) is an obedient postfeminist text overlook the drama’s images of both women and the history of feminism and its potential to impact on contemporary understandings of gender politics. Mad Men can be seen as a psychological object, helping viewers to explore links between their own experience and that of characters on screen as the narrative unfolds. Making links between the social re-emergence of feminist awareness, the drama’s representations of second wave feminism, and a psychoanalytic understanding of mourning, I suggest that that a return to psychoanalytic methodologies has the potential to enrich television scholarship. Author Biog: Caroline Bainbridge is Professor of Culture and Psychoanalysis at the University of Roehampton. Her books include The Cinema of Lars von Trier (2007) and A Feminine Cinematics (2008), co-edited volumes such as Television and Psychoanalysis (2013) and Media and the Inner World (2014), and curated special editions of journals such as Psychoanalysis, Culture and Society and Free Associations. She is film editor for The International Journal of Psychoanalysis. 1 With its associated opportunities for viewers to engage with television drama via a plethora of “on-demand” services, “new” television provides scope to re-visit questions about the psychodynamics of viewing experience in the context of television scholarship. This is demonstrated in debates about binge watching and its links to emerging interfaces of media consumption (Brunsdon, 2010; Jenner, 2015; Matrix, 2014; Perks, 2015). -
Brian Fauteux, University of Wisconsin-Madison
Music Made for TV: Reassessing the History of Pop Music in/on Television Popular Music and Authenticity in AMC’s Mad Men Brian Fauteux, University of Wisconsin-Madison “Lady Lazarus,” an episode of Mad Men’s fifth season, ends with a familiar sound for most viewers as the Beatles’ “Tomorrow Never Knows” plays over the final scene and the episode’s credits. In a New York Times article about the show’s purchase of the song, Mad Men’s creator Matthew Weiner remarked, “Even people who are not in the clearances and rights business were struck by the fact that that was actually the Beatles…You just get the satisfaction of knowing that was not an imitation and it’s that recording” (Itzkoff and Sisario). The use of “Tomorrow Never Knows” is essential for a show that is very much concerned with communicating an “authentic” experience of 1960s aesthetics. A recent profile on Kathryn Allison Mann, Mad Men’s head of research, revealed that each season involves a detailed timeline of noteworthy events in news, politics, and culture (Blake). But authenticity isn’t cheap, especially as popular music becomes integral to late 1960s popular culture. “Tomorrow Never Knows” was purchased by Lionsgate for a whopping price of $250,000. Early in its final and seventh season, the show has increased its use of prominent musical selections to evoke a feeling of the late 60s, drawing on bands such as Spencer Davis Group, Vanilla Fudge, and the Jimi Hendrix Experience to add an “authentic” soundtrack for New York and Los Angeles in 1969. -

Stoneback Thesis.Pdf
“Women Usually Want to Please”: A Linguistic Analysis of Femininity and Power in Mad Men by Stephanie Stoneback A thesis presented for the B.A. degree with Honors in The Department of English University of Michigan Winter 2019 © 2019 Stephanie Christine Stoneback To my mom. Acknowledgments First of all, I would like to thank my thesis advisor, Anne Curzan, for her unwavering support, guidance, and understanding throughout this process. Anne, without your encouragement, listening ear, criticism, and patience, I would have never been able to produce such exciting analysis that I am proud of. To me, you embody what it means to be a powerful woman and you are such an inspiration as I complete my undergraduate work and enter a new phase of life. Thank you so much for that. Next, I must thank our program director, Adela Pinch, for her helpful tips and constant reminders that everything was going to be okay. Adela, in many ways, you have shaped my education as an English major at the University of Michigan—you taught me the Introduction to Literary Studies course, a course on Jane Austen, and both semesters of Thesis Writing. Thank you so much for the years of engaged learning, critical thinking, and community building. I would also like to thank some of the staff members of the New England Literature Program, who helped instill in me a confidence in my writing and in my self that I never knew I was capable of. Aric Knuth, Ryan Babbitt, Mark Gindi, Maya West, and Kristin Gilger, each of you had a distinct and lasting impact on me, in some unspoken and perhaps sacred ways. -
The Relationship Between Children and the Elderly in Mad Men
Sustaining and transgressing borders. The relationship between children and the elderly in Mad Men Cecilia Lindgren and Johanna Sjöberg Book Chapter Cite this chapter as: Lindgren, C., Sjöberg, J. Sustaining and transgressing borders: The relationship between children and the elderly in Mad Men, In Joosen, V. (ed), Connecting childhood and old age in popular media, Jackson, MS: University Press of Mississippi; 2018, pp. 184-206. ISBN: 9781496815163 Copyright: University Press of Mississippi The self-archived postprint version of this journal article is available at Linköping University Institutional Repository (DiVA): http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:liu:diva-147540 Sustaining and Transgressing Borders The Relationship Between Children and the Elderly in Mad Men Cecilia Lindgren and Johanna Sjöberg Children and the elderly are, in various contexts, portrayed as ideal companions, and positioned as “others” in relation to the more powerful generation in between (Joosen 128, 136-138; Hockey and James 2-5). In children’s literature, for example, the relationship between the two age groups tends to be romanticized, featuring their mutual interests in nature, animals, fantasy and storytelling. In this chapter, we explore how the two categories meet in the award-winning drama TV series Mad Men. The aim is to scrutinize the link between childhood and old age, by analyzing how the relationships between a young girl, Sally Draper, and her elderly relatives are played out. Exploring key scenes, we show how the companionship between children and the elderly is constructed as rewarding for both parties, yet as provocative and challenging rather than romantic and harmless. -
Matthew Weiner's Mad
EXHIBITION FACT SHEET Matthew Weiner’s Mad Men March 14–September 6, 2015 (third-floor changing exhibitions gallery) Overview This new exhibition, about the creative process behind the television series Mad Men, features large-scale sets, memorable costumes, hundreds of props, advertising art used in the production of the series, and personal notes and research material from Matthew Weiner, the show’s creator, head writer, and executive producer. The exhibition offers unique insight into the series’ origins, and how its exceptional storytelling and remarkable attention to period detail resulted in a vivid portrait of an era and the characters who lived through it. Matthew Weiner’s Mad Men marks the first time objects relating to the production of the series will be shown in public on this scale. The exhibition was accompanied by a film series, Required Viewing: Mad Men’s Movie Influences, which featured ten films selected by Matthew Weiner that inspired the show. It ran March 14 through April 26, 2015. The exhibition coincides with the series’ final seven episodes, which aired on AMC from April 5–May 17, 2015. Highlights include: Two large-scale sets, including Don Draper’s SC&P office and the Draper family kitchen from their Ossining home. These sets were transported from Los Angeles where Mad Men was shot, and installed at the Museum using the original props from the show. Ellen Freund, who served as property master on Mad Men for seasons four through seven, dressed the sets for the Museum’s installation. A recreation of the writers’ room where Weiner and his team crafted story ideas and scripts for the series, complete with story notes for the first half of season seven listed on a white board, and index cards, research material, and other elements created and used by Mad Men’s writers. -
ENG 1131: Writing About American Prestige TV (Sec 4841)
ENG 1131: Writing About American Prestige TV (sec 4841) Milt Moise MWF/R: Period 4: 10:40-11:30; E1-E3: 7:20-10:10 Classroom: WEIL 408E Office Hours: W, R Per. 7-8, or by appointment, TUR 4342 Course Website: CANVAS Instructor Email: [email protected] Twitter account: @milt_moise Course Description, Objectives, and Outcomes: This course examines the emergence of what is now called “prestige TV,” and the discourse surrounding it. Former FCC chairman Newton N. Minow, in a 1961 speech, once called TV “a vast wasteland” of violence, formulaic entertainment, and commercials. Television has come a long way since then, and critics such as Andy Greenwald now call our current moment of television production “the golden age of TV.” While television shows containing the elements Minow decried decades ago still exist, alongside them we now find television characterized by complex plots, moral ambiguity, excellent production value, and outstanding writing and acting performances. In this class, our discussions will center around, but not be limited to the aesthetics of prestige TV, and how AMC’s Mad Men and TBS’s Search Party conform to or subvert this framework. Students will learn to visually analyze a television show, and develop their critical reading and writing skills. By the end of the semester, students will be able to make substantiated arguments about the television show they have seen, and place it into greater social and historical context. They will also learn how to conduct formal research through the use of secondary sources and other relevant material to support their theses, analyses and arguments.
