In the middle we have Torie Clarke, in her final days now as Assistant Secretary of Defense for Public Affairs. Down there at the end of the panel, Bob Franken of CNN. He was an embedded reporter in Iraq and will talk about that experience. Next to me here, John Walcott, the Washington Bureau Chief for the Knight Ridder Newspapers.

  • CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION A. Background of the Study Humans
    CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION A. Background of the Study Humans are thinking creatures who keep learning to know everything. One of the ways to understand everything is by reading. Reading is an interactive process through which the reader uses code, context analysis, prior knowledge, vocabulary, and language. Along with the executive control, a strategy to understand the message in a text is to find the meaning of new words through context. The reader can be able to predict the message of the text by making use of what he has already known about the topic. Reading can be variously formed. It requires many types and themes of reading. They are fiction, non-fiction, fairytale, drama, humor and many more. Humor is one of the most entertaining forms among others. Humor can be said as entertaining discourse because it is created in order to entertain the listener and the reader. Furthermore, it can be media of social criticism toward the violation in the society because humor is the most effective media when the other channels are not able to conduct their function (Wijana, 2003: 3). Humor can be presented in several forms. As stated by Danandjaya (1989: 47), humor can be in the form of fairy tale, anecdote, puzzle, folk poem, folk song, nickname, and even in the name of funny food. In addition, humor can be classified as follows: adviser, anecdote, antonyms, bull, caricature and cartoon (Audrieth, 1998: 8). 2 Cartoon as one of the humor forms requires an interesting and entertaining effects to the reader. For this reason, reading cartoon sometimes needs a sensitive perception to comprehend the humor that makes the reader having a big laughter.

    LA stORIA TOPOLINO E PRIMA EDIZIONE: T 183-184 (25/3-10/4/1958) L’UNGHIA DI KALÌ SUCCESSIVE EDIZIONI: CWD 12 [Supergiallo di Topolino] Soggetto, sceneggiatura e matite (7/1963); CWDNS 21 [Supergiallo di Topolino] (9/1978); CD 1 di Romano Scarpa ‒ Chine di (6/7/1992); TM 47 (4/1996); SCT (2003); SPD 32 [75° Topolino] Luciano Gatto ‒ 50 tavole (2003); GC 239 (10/2006); MID 1 [Topolino] (9/2/2009) ivisa in due tempi come un film, Topolino e l’unghia di Kalì è per molti versi un omaggio di Scarpa alla lettera- Dtura e al cinema di genere noir e hard-boiled. Dopo un inizio decisamente ironico, l’avventura assume l’andamento nar- rativo di un giallo. Si respirano echi di classiche storie quali Topo- lino e il mistero di Macchia Nera del 1939 ed è abbastanza eviden- te la connessione tra le macchine fotografiche che Topolino va cercando nella storia di Gottfredson con i dischi di quella di Scar- pa. Vi sono poi impliciti riferimenti ai film di Alfred Hitchcock. La residenza dell’attrice Mayne Mansfielp ricorda la villa di Phil- lip Vandamm (James Mason) in Intrigo Internazionale (North by Northwest, 1959), mentre la scena successiva rimanda a La fi- nestra sul cortile (Rear Window, 1954). Di matrice hitchcockia- na è anche la suspense che tiene continuamente alta l’attenzio- ne del lettore. L’uso del retino tipografico assume qui una doppia valenza. Da un lato crea una ulteriore connessione con le strisce quotidiane, dall’altro è funzionale alle atmosfere noir della storia. Siglata “RS-10” nell’ultima vignetta.
