  • Rural Hysteria: Genre of the Reimagined Past, Spectacle of Aids, and Queer Politics in Diana Lee Inosanto’S the Sensei
    RURAL HYSTERIA: GENRE OF THE REIMAGINED PAST, SPECTACLE OF AIDS, AND QUEER POLITICS IN DIANA LEE INOSANTO’S THE SENSEI Kendall Joseph Binder A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2013 Committee: Becca Cragin, Advisor Jeffrey Allan Brown Marilyn Ferris Motz © 2013 Kendall Joseph Binder All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Becca Cragin, Advisor Diana Inosanto reimagines the 1980s AIDS epidemic in her film, The Sensei (2008) and implements cultural issues on rurality, sexuality, and tolerance within the overall narrative structure. Finding it important to use the works of Rick Altman, John G. Cawelti, and Fredric Jameson, I theorize how postmodernism affects film genres and their evolution through pastiche and historical events. Within this genre cycle, The Sensei fits into several other film genre types that include the queer film, AIDS film, and martial arts film. Drawing from the works of Richard Dyer, B. Ruby Rich, Kylo-Patrick Hart, and David West, I place The Sensei into each category to develop thoughts on how hybrid genres work into film creation. Analyzing the works on myths of the small town and rurality, assumptions about queer migration, and stigmatizations about AIDS, I attempt to disprove these myths and assumptions through the works of Bud W. Jerke, Judith Halberstam, Michael Kennedy, and Emily Kazyak. My overall goal is to project social awareness about queer cultural geography, issues with AIDS in rural areas, and the vitalization of anti-bullying issues that have saturated our media landscape within the last two decades using Inosanto’s The Sensei as a vehicle to evoke thought.

    Hire a celebrity look-alike to come and mingle with the guests and watch their bungled reactions Lucid dreaming stories are tremendously different and wonderful practice In lucid dreaming, there is a point when people came to know that they are dreaming and even they can speak to their selves that they are in a dream An opportunity to do religious work is given by lucid dreaming In dreaming phase, a person is able to conclude what he wants, and performs actions accordingly There is a difference between normal dreams and lucid dream When a normal person starts dreaming, he can control a little on what's happening in his dream It is like that a person is flounced along with the story and he is only a bit is able to say that what happens in it Many crazy and stupid things also happened in the dreams and people considered it as o normal, and ordinary thing A person is having a tendency not to diminish anything But, when a person become lucid, a state of being consciousness and awareness that he feels his dream actually happens in real when he wake up the next morning These lucid dreaming stories will let a person remain in the world of dream with the full alertness of everyday activities So, an ability of a person to have awareness at the same time of dreaming is called a lucid dream Any person in real can experience whatever he imagines Lucid dreaming becomes as practical and realistic as the world is While lucid dreaming, a person can go for anything what he would like to have a chance in real life At the Lucidity Institute, Stephen Laberge
