  • Framing the Automobile in Twentieth Century American Literature: a Spatial Approach
    SMOAK, SHELBY, Ph.D. Framing the Automobile in Twentieth Century American Literature: A Spatial Approach. (2007) Co-Directed by Dr. Nancy Myers and Dr. Scott Romine, 241 pp. This study examines fictional representations of the automobile in American literature and argues that the American novel subverts a favorable perception of the car. While other approaches have engaged the automobile in critical discussion, I apply Joseph Frank’s spatial theory to propose the automobile as a framed site that recurs throughout texts; this approach allows for a stricter focus on the material automobile in the text and encourages an investigation of the relationship between cars and American culture. The automobile in literature, however, is not a static site, but is dynamic, much in the same manner Roland Barthes theorizes when he argues for opening a text. To highlight the dynamic quality of the textual automobile site, this study focuses on how characters and cars interact in works of American fiction. Specifically, I argue for cars as experiences of violence, sacredness, and consumption. Cars represented as sites of violence involve instances of car fatalities, of premeditated murder, and of a general antagonism toward car technology; cars represented as sites of sacredness involve instances when cars are places of escape and freedom, and where cars are sites of religious idolatry; cars represented as sites of consumption involve instances of when cars are traded, or where cars are places for consuming other goods such as food and beverages. Moreover, particular paradigms predominate in specific periods of American literature, so that in the early decades of the twentieth century, fiction predominantly represents cars as sites of violence; in the middle decades, fiction predominantly represents cars as sites of sacredness; and at the century’s end, fiction predominantly represents cars as sites of sacredness.

  • Guidelines Passenger Cars for Seniors: Requirements
    XXXI International Seminar of Ergonomics ISBN: 978-1-60595-652-7 Guidelines Passenger Cars for Seniors: Requirements DARIUSZ TORZYŃSKI1 and MAREK ZABŁOCKI2 Keywords: passenger cars for seniors, car adaptation, ergonomic checklists ABSTRACT The article describes a significant diversification of the motor vehicle market. It outlines factors facilitating and hindering seniors’ access to cars by referring to typical vehicle operation processes. A number of problems related to the selection of products better suited to the needs of seniors are signalled. An example of the author’s checklist supporting senior citizens with an informed choice of necessary and available options and features of series-produced cars is given. The work indicates the possibilities of using additional vehicle equipment and assistive technology enabling or supporting the driving process. INTRODUCTION A passenger car is probably one of the most important long-term consumer goods [1]. The possibility of using this technology at every stage of human life is, for many individuals, the basis for maintaining an active life at a sufficiently high level. This is particularly important for older people, whose possibilities of independent movement without using technical solutions are very low [2]. The ability to drive a motor vehicle, in this case, makes it very easy to travel independently without involving third parties, which is very important for seniors. In order to preserve this ability, technical solutions used by seniors must be appropriately adjusted to their needs. Assistive technology and rehabilitation engineering required for car adaptations should be selected based on the specific needs of seniors and/or older passengers. As the number of older people has been rapidly growing in recent years, vehicle manufacturers are increasingly interested in this target group.
