As a financially and independently successful African American woman in a predominantly white patriarchal society, Winfrey is an ideal proponent of the American dream, having garnered celebrity and fame through an individualistic and neoliberal rhetoric. By analyzing the evolution of the American dream and how it relates to a coherent and unified American identity, I demonstrate how Winfrey’s empire of self-improvement transcends into the literary world. By utilizing qualitative textual and historical analysis, I employ a cultural studies approach by constructing a connection between the American dream’s emphasis on rugged individualism to themes and ideas presented in the context of Oprah’s Book Club, with special focus on ideology and values within the American dream.

Kuhn ABSTRACT Since the 1936 publication of Gone with the Wind and the 1939 release of David O. Selznick’s film version of the book, the city of Atlanta has been associated in the public mind with Margaret Mitchell’s tale of the Old South, the Civil War and Reconstruction. The work of Mitchell and Selznick created images that shaped the public’s understanding of southern history and of Atlanta’s identity. This dissertation examines a series of attempts to capitalize on the fame and popularity of Gone with the Wind in museums in the Atlanta area. Focusing on the interpretive efforts of three entities—the Atlanta History Center, Clayton County, and the Margaret Mitchell House, Inc.—this study reveals the problematic nature of Mitchell’s and Selznick’s work and the impact that the book and film have had on shaping Atlanta’s identity and the public memory of the South.

  • Adler Questions to Guide CHAPTER 1
    Adler Questions to Guide CHAPTER 1 The University of St. Thomas Odyssey Program Questions to Guide Your Reading Mortimer Adler and Charles Van Doren, How to Read a Book Chapter 1: The Activity and Art of Reading 1. The author sets out on the first page of his book what the book is for. “This is a book for readers and for those who wish to become readers. Particularly, it for readers of books.” You are now entering into a university education, and a university education will involve reading a lot of books. That is one of the reasons we are having you read this book. So, in a sense, the author is describing you. “Even more particularly,” though, says the author, his book is for those whose main purpose in reading books is what? * to gain increased understanding 2. “There is some feeling nowadays,” says Adler – and please note that by “nowadays,” he means 1940, when the book was originally written, which was before the U.S. entered World War II and long before most of your parents were born; but back then, a long, long time ago, in ages past, people somehow got this idea into their heads – “that reading is not as necessary as it once was.” Wow! They thought that way back then -- in 1940? Yes, they did. Why? Well, as Adler points out, because it was thought that, “Radio and especially television have taken over many of the functions once served by print.” Did they? If you were growing up in 1940's America and had thought to yourself: “Golly, I don’t need to learn to read; the new technologies of radio and television will replace the need to read by the time I get out of school,” would you have been right? Would you have found yourself well prepared for the last half of the Twentieth Century (sometimes called the beginning of the “Information Age”)? 3.
