  • The Literature of Kita Morio DISSERTATION Presented In
    Insignificance Given Meaning: The Literature of Kita Morio DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Masako Inamoto Graduate Program in East Asian Languages and Literatures The Ohio State University 2010 Dissertation Committee: Professor Richard Edgar Torrance Professor Naomi Fukumori Professor Shelley Fenno Quinn Copyright by Masako Inamoto 2010 Abstract Kita Morio (1927-), also known as his literary persona Dokutoru Manbô, is one of the most popular and prolific postwar writers in Japan. He is also one of the few Japanese writers who have simultaneously and successfully produced humorous, comical fiction and essays as well as serious literary works. He has worked in a variety of genres. For example, The House of Nire (Nireke no hitobito), his most prominent work, is a long family saga informed by history and Dr. Manbô at Sea (Dokutoru Manbô kôkaiki) is a humorous travelogue. He has also produced in other genres such as children‟s stories and science fiction. This study provides an introduction to Kita Morio‟s fiction and essays, in particular, his versatile writing styles. Also, through the examination of Kita‟s representative works in each genre, the study examines some overarching traits in his writing. For this reason, I have approached his large body of works by according a chapter to each genre. Chapter one provides a biographical overview of Kita Morio‟s life up to the present. The chapter also gives a brief biographical sketch of Kita‟s father, Saitô Mokichi (1882-1953), who is one of the most prominent tanka poets in modern times.

    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 387 852 CS 509 070 AUTHOR Adler-Kassner, Linda TITLE "Why Won't You Just Read It?": Comic Books and Community in the 1950s. PUB DATE Aug 95 NOTE 35p.; Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication (78th, Washington, DC, August 9-12, 1995). Comic book story appended may not reproduce well. PUB TYPE Historical Materials (060) Speeches/Conference Papers (150) EDRS PRICE MFOI/PCO2 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Audience Response; Case Studies; *Childhood Interests; *Comics (Publications); Communication Research; *Cultural Context; Media Research; *Popular Culture; *Reading Material Selection; Recreational Reading IDENTIFIERS Communication Context; Cultural Studies; Discourse Communities; *E C Comics; Historical Background; Parental Dominance ABSTRACT A study explored the debate over comic books and children in the 1950s, addressing the communication role of comic books in forming a new community of comic book fans during that period. Using E.C. (Educational Comics) comic books as a case study, the conventions of the comic books, correspondence between producers and consumers, and articles by anti-comic book critics were examined to analyze how the comics contributed to what critics perceived as a new community of children and youth distinct from the dominant community to which they belonged. The comic book "crusade" was one manifestation of the anxiety felt by many adults over the communications revolution of the 1950s. Reader response theory was used to study the comic books' reception by fans and critics alike--the theory insists that readers bring meaning to text, and that the audience is central to understanding.

In fact, while Cook changed the procedure for initiating a post-conviction Franklin proceeding, little else has changed, including the lack of agreement among attorneys concerning best practices in these proceedings, and a less than less-than-enthusiastic response from the criminal defense bar.

  • Dear Parent, Is Your Child a Reluctant Reader…?
    Dear Parent, Reading for pleasure is possibly the single-most important activity your child can do to improve achievement in school. Research has shown that reading helps cognitive development; a recent study by the Institute of Education revealed that students who read at home do ‘significantly better’ across the curriculum – including 9.9% better in maths – than students who don’t read. Linked to this is the fact that reading is the best way to improve vocabulary, essential for success in every subject. Reading also has social and emotional benefits. It increases self-esteem and studies show that students who read are more empathetic. Growing up is not always easy - reading can help young people explore complex problems from the safe fictional world of a book. Is your child a reluctant reader…? The problem, of course, is convincing young people of the importance and joy of reading. As the parent of three children, I understand how difficult this can be in a world of electronic distractions. Here are some tactics that may help: • Find books with a connection to something they love. If they are football fans, look for footie fiction for teens – try Booked by Kwame Alexander; Football School Star Players by Bellos; or Dan Freedman or Tom Palmer’s books. If they like military/action/war, then try the Dog Tag series by CA London or Andy McNab’s teen books. If they like to watch Youtubers, try Zoella’s book club and if they are into gaming, try fast-paced chapter books or ‘choose your own adventure’ stories.
