For more information, please contact [email protected]. EDDIE MURPHY IN THE CUT: RACE, CLASS, CULTURE, AND 1980S FILM COMEDY by GAIL A. MCFARLAND Under the Direction of Lia T. Bascomb, PhD ABSTRACT Race, class, and politics in film comedy have been debated in the field of African American culture and aesthetics, with scholars and filmmakers arguing the merits of narrative space without adequately addressing the issue of subversive agency of aesthetic expression by black film comedians. With special attention to the 1980-1989 work of comedian Eddie Murphy, this study will look at the film and television work found in this moment as an incisive cut in traditional Hollywood industry and narrative practices in order to show black comedic agency through aesthetic and cinematic narrative subversion. Through close examination of the film, Beverly Hills Cop (Brest, 1984), this project works to shed new light on the cinematic and standup trickster influences of comedy, and the little recognized existence of the 1980s as a decade that defines a base period for chronicling and inspecting the black aesthetic narrative subversion of American film comedy.

    ”OH MY GOD, THAT NIGGER SAID GUN!”: Use of ethnic humor in modern stand-up comedy Master’s thesis Ville Jakoaho and Sami Marjamäki University of Jyväskylä Department of Languages English February 2012 JYVÄSKYLÄN YLIOPISTO Tiedekunta – Faculty Laitos – Department Humanistinen tiedekunta Kielten laitos Tekijä – Author Ville Jakoaho ja Sami Marjamäki Työn nimi – Title “OH MY GOD, THAT NIGGER SAID GUN!”: Use of ethnic humor in modern stand-up comedy Oppiaine – Subject Työn laji – Level englanti Pro gradu -tutkielma Aika – Month and year Sivumäärä – Number of pages helmikuu 2012 117 sivua Tiivistelmä – Abstract Tutkielman tavoitteena oli selvittää, miten etninen huumori ilmenee modernissa stand-up komediassa. Tarkemmin sanottuna tutkielman kiinnostuksen kohde oli tutkia mihin tai keneen etninen huumori kohdistuu, ja mitä eri funktioita sillä saattaa olla. Tutkielmassa analysoitiin seitsemää eri stand-up esitystä viideltä eri amerikkalaiselta koomikolta, joista kaikki kuuluvat etnisiin vähemmistöryhmiin. Tutkielmassa käytetyt esitykset ovat live-esityksiä, jotka ovat julkaistu DVD formaattina. Tutkielma pohjautuu kriittiseen diskurssintutkimukseen ja keskeisenä metodina käytettiin Norman Fairclough:n kolmiulotteista diskurssimallia. Kriittisen diskurssintutkimuksen avulla pyrimme selvittämään sekä kielenkäytön tehtäviä että niiden vaikutuksia vitseissä, ja mitä mahdollisia implikaatioita koomikoiden vitseissä käyttämillä metodeilla on joko etnisten stereotypioiden vahvistamiseen tai heikentämiseen. Tutkielmassa havaittiin, että koomikoiden

  • The Reimagined Paradise: African Immigrants in the United States, Nollywood Film, and the Digital Remediation of 'Home'
    THE REIMAGINED PARADISE: AFRICAN IMMIGRANTS IN THE UNITED STATES, NOLLYWOOD FILM, AND THE DIGITAL REMEDIATION OF 'HOME' Tori O. Arthur 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 August 2016 Committee: Radhika Gajjala, Advisor Patricia Sharp Graduate Faculty Representative Vibha Bhalla Lara Lengel © 2016 Tori O. Arthur All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Radhika Gajjala, Advisor This dissertation analyzes how African immigrants from nations south of the Sahara become affective citizens of a universal Africa through the consumption of Nigerian cinema, known as Nollywood, in digital spaces. Employing a phenomenological approach to examine lived experience, this study explores: 1) how American media aids African pre-migrants in constructing the United States as a paradise rooted in the American Dream; 2) immigrants’ responses when the ‘imagined paradise’ does not match their American realities; 3) the ways Nigerian films articulate a distinctly African cultural experience that enables immigrants from various nations to identify with the stories reflected on screen; and, 4) how viewing Nollywood films in social media platforms creates a digital sub-diaspora that enables a reconnection with African culture when life in the United States causes intellectual and emotional dissonance. Using voices of members from the African immigrant communities currently living in the United States and analysis of their online media consumption, this study ultimately argues that the Nigerian film industry, a transnational cinema with consumers across the African diaspora, continuously creates a fantastical affective world that offers immigrants tools to connect with their African cultural values.
