  • Say Yes to the Text
    Journal of Contemporary Rhetoric, Vol. 5, No.1/2, 2015, pp. 42-49. Say Yes to the Text Jennifer Burg In this essay, the author describes her experience as a participant in the reality television show Say Yes to the Dress. She delves into the production aspects of the show and her own feelings of identification with the production staff. She also considers the multiple audiences, both present and not present, in applying for, producing, and par- ticipating in a reality television show. Keywords: Audience, Autoethnography, Bridal Rituals, Femininity, Reality Television, Wedding Rituals Proposal For years when we were single, my best friend Jackie and I would come home from late nights out in NYC, climb into her bed with bowls of cereal, and watch TV until we fell asleep. Our fa- vorites were shows that aired on TLC, and of those we most loved Say Yes to the Dress. We took great pleasure in watching the brides-to-be try on, reject and select their dream dresses in the sparkly showroom of Kleinfeld, in the heart of Manhattan. We critiqued every ensemble, mar- veled at every price point, and added our own snarky commentary to that of the friends and fami- ly who came along to assist the soon-to-be-wed. We scrutinized everything from the tiaras to the toe clips and the whole lot in between. We had our favorite designers, and we knew the Kleinfeld consultants by name. Never did we think that we might actually have the experience that we so often watched: Jackie has two kids and is divorced; I was engaged once years ago, but that didn’t work out.

  • Honours Project
    Honours Project Title: Changing Representation of Introversion in 21st century American Teen Movies Course Instructor: Dr. Yu Kwan Wai, Eric Name: Chak Choi Yan SID: Date of submission: 30/4/2020 0 “We live with a value system that I call the Extrovert Ideal – the omni-present believe that the ideal self is gregarious, alpha, and comfortable in the spotlight (Cain, 2013, pp.4)” Introduction The studies of introversion and extroversion There is no exact definition of introversion and extroversion. As a matter of fact, the word “introversion” did not carry a psychological meaning of the tendency of “withdrawing from the world” until psychologist Carl Jung defines this term in 1912 (Online Etymology Dictionary, 2020). He defines that transference (which he later referred as extroversion) and introversion as the two basic mechanisms in psychoses and introversion is defined as a way for people to detach themselves from the reality (Jung, 1912). Since then, psychologists have debated about the definitions of the two terms and how the two mechanisms influence people in the ways they think. Jung defines that introverts are individuals whose objective world declines and that they themselves are the center of their interests (Jung & Schmid-Guisan, 2015). On the contrary, extroverts are those who contribute their interests to the outer world and attributes importance to it. Jung (1921) also proposes that the two types are on a spectrum and there are no pure introverts or pure extroverts. In other words, one can be more introverted and less extroverted. Introverts are considered reserved and quiet in social situations (Rothmann & Coetzer, 2003).

  • Taylor Muller Honors Thesis
    CONTEMPORARY REPRESENTATIONS OF MARRIAGE IN LITERATURE AND POP CULTURE by Taylor Muller Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for Departmental Honors in the Department of English Texas Christian University Fort Worth, Texas May 2, 2014 ii CONTEMPORARY REPRESENTATIONS OF MARRIAGE IN LITERATURE AND POP CULTURE Project Approved: Supervising Professor: Ariane Balizet, Ph.D. Department of English Carrie Leverenz, Ph.D. Department of English Sharon Fairchild, Ph.D. Department of Modern Language Studies iii ABSTRACT This research examines the representations of marriage in the novels The Marriage Plot and Gone Girl, reality television shows including Say Yes to the Dress, Four Weddings, and The Bachelor, and social media websites such as Pinterest. The analysis focuses on how these contemporary representations demonstrate normative gender roles, and what claims they make about marriage today. Several patterns emerged when using in particular the theories of Judith Butler and Frances Dolan as a framework for understanding the portrayals of marriage. The depictions of marriage included individuals adopting some sort of role-performance, often gender specific, and reiterated the conflict for power in marriage between the two parties. These were magnified in the dramatization of real life, such as reality television shows, and frequently reiterated traditional understandings of marriage within a modern context. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION...............................................................................................................1

  • The Bride in American Media: a Feminist Media Studies And
    THE BRIDE IN AMERICAN MEDIA: A FEMINIST MEDIA STUDIES AND CRITICAL ANALYSIS, 1831-2012 by EMILIA NOELLE BAK (Under the Direction of Janice Hume) ABSTRACT This dissertation examined the figure of the bride in American media. Today, the bride is a ubiquitous figure. She graces the covers of magazines, websites are devoted to her, and multiple television series star her. This study aimed to understand the American bride contemporarily and historically by examining magazine media from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries as well as today’s reality television programming. Pulling from feminist media studies and critical cultural studies and proceeding from the standpoint that representations matter, portrayals of the bride were analyzed in terms of gender, class and race for ways in which these representations affirmed and/or resisted the dominant ideology. The bride was examined in media targeted at women to understand how media meant for women talked about the bride, a uniquely female figure. The nineteenth-century women’s magazine Godey’s Lady’s Book, the twentieth-century women’s magazine Ladies’ Home Journal and today’s most notorious reality bride show, Bridezillas, were all examined.
