  • Building Cold War Warriors: Socialization of the Final Cold War Generation
    BUILDING COLD WAR WARRIORS: SOCIALIZATION OF THE FINAL COLD WAR GENERATION Steven Robert Bellavia A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2018 Committee: Andrew M. Schocket, Advisor Karen B. Guzzo Graduate Faculty Representative Benjamin P. Greene Rebecca J. Mancuso © 2018 Steven Robert Bellavia All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Andrew Schocket, Advisor This dissertation examines the experiences of the final Cold War generation. I define this cohort as a subset of Generation X born between 1965 and 1971. The primary focus of this dissertation is to study the ways this cohort interacted with the three messages found embedded within the Cold War us vs. them binary. These messages included an emphasis on American exceptionalism, a manufactured and heightened fear of World War III, as well as the othering of the Soviet Union and its people. I begin the dissertation in the 1970s, - during the period of détente- where I examine the cohort’s experiences in elementary school. There they learned who was important within the American mythos and the rituals associated with being an American. This is followed by an examination of 1976’s bicentennial celebration, which focuses on not only the planning for the celebration but also specific events designed to fulfill the two prime directives of the celebration. As the 1980s came around not only did the Cold War change but also the cohort entered high school. Within this stage of this cohorts education, where I focus on the textbooks used by the cohort and the ways these textbooks reinforced notions of patriotism and being an American citizen.

For more information, please contact [email protected]. Finding Their Voice: Women Musicians of Baroque Italy Faith Poynor emale musicians began to achieve greater freedom and indepen- dence from men during the Baroque period, and their music and Fcreative talent consequently began to flourish. Due to the rise in popularity of female vocal ensembles that resulted after the establishment of the con- certo delle donne in 1580, women composers in early modern Italy gained greater access to musical training previously only available to men or nuns. As seen by the works of composers and singers such as Francesca Caccini and Barbara Strozzi, this led to an unprecedented increase in women’s mu- sical productivity, particularly in vocal music. The rise of female vocal ensembles in the early Baroque period was a pivotal moment in women’s music history, as women finally achieved wide- spread recognition for their talents as musicians.

  • The Amazing, Performing Film: Some Propositions
    -Davetli Yazı ∙ Invited Paper – The Amazing, Performing Film: Some Propositions Adrian Martin Prologue: Chosen Moments Tex Avery possessed a sense of excess in everything and of its organization, which distinguish his films from the stereotyped frenzy characteristic of the majority of American cartoons. Two characters hurtle off a cliff uttering horrendous screams; during shot after shot they fall toward the camera and their repeated cries become unbearable; the scene lasts for only about ten seconds but appears to go on forever. Then they finally land, light as feathers, and the chase resumes as if nothing had happened. - Noël Burch1 F For Fake (Orson Welles, 1974): at the start, the film presents a declaration – spoken and shown – to the effect that, although it is wholly concerned with tricks and tricksters, for the next sixty minutes only the truth will be told and presented. The film eventually winds around to a particularly outlandish story involving Pablo Picasso and his dealings with a mysterious model (Oja Kodar).

This thesis, aimed at performers as well as scholars, begins with a brief consideration of the cultural context of early public opera in Venice and the emergence of the musical language of tonality. It goes on to examine how, in setting Faustini’s text, Cavalli represents desire and sexuality, constructs character, and creates a musical narrative. Cavalli’s implementation of the precepts of the seconda prattica is also considered in terms of textural and rhetorical devices.

  • 2008 OAH Annual Meeting • New York 1
    Welcome ear colleagues in history, welcome to the one-hundred-fi rst annual meeting of the Organiza- tion of American Historians in New York. Last year we met in our founding site of Minneap- Dolis-St. Paul, before that in the national capital of Washington, DC. On the present occasion wew meet in the world’s media capital, but in a very special way: this is a bridge-and-tunnel aff air, not limitedli to just the island of Manhattan. Bridges and tunnels connect the island to the larger metropolitan region. For a long time, the peoplep in Manhattan looked down on people from New Jersey and the “outer boroughs”— Brooklyn, theth Bronx, Queens, and Staten Island—who came to the island via those bridges and tunnels. Bridge- and-tunnela people were supposed to lack the sophistication and style of Manhattan people. Bridge- and-tunnela people also did the work: hard work, essential work, beautifully creative work. You will sees this work in sessions and tours extending beyond midtown Manhattan. Be sure not to miss, for example,e “From Mambo to Hip-Hop: Th e South Bronx Latin Music Tour” and the bus tour to my own Photo by Steve Miller Steve by Photo cityc of Newark, New Jersey. Not that this meeting is bridge-and-tunnel only. Th anks to the excellent, hard working program committee, chaired by Debo- rah Gray White, and the local arrangements committee, chaired by Mark Naison and Irma Watkins-Owens, you can chose from an abundance of off erings in and on historic Manhattan: in Harlem, the Cooper Union, Chinatown, the Center for Jewish History, the Brooklyn Historical Society, the New-York Historical Society, the American Folk Art Museum, and many other sites of great interest.
