  • Memetic Proliferation and Fan Participation in the Simpsons
    THE UNIVERSITY OF HULL Craptacular Science and the Worst Audience Ever: Memetic Proliferation and Fan Participation in The Simpsons being a Thesis submitted for the Degree of PhD Film Studies in the University of Hull by Jemma Diane Gilboy, BFA, BA (Hons) (University of Regina), MScRes (University of Edinburgh) April 2016 Craptacular Science and the Worst Audience Ever: Memetic Proliferation and Fan Participation in The Simpsons by Jemma D. Gilboy University of Hull 201108684 Abstract (Thesis Summary) The objective of this thesis is to establish meme theory as an analytical paradigm within the fields of screen and fan studies. Meme theory is an emerging framework founded upon the broad concept of a “meme”, a unit of culture that, if successful, proliferates among a given group of people. Created as a cultural analogue to genetics, memetics has developed into a cultural theory and, as the concept of memes is increasingly applied to online behaviours and activities, its relevance to the area of media studies materialises. The landscapes of media production and spectatorship are in constant fluctuation in response to rapid technological progress. The internet provides global citizens with unprecedented access to media texts (and their producers), information, and other individuals and collectives who share similar knowledge and interests. The unprecedented speed with (and extent to) which information and media content spread among individuals and communities warrants the consideration of a modern analytical paradigm that can accommodate and keep up with developments. Meme theory fills this gap as it is compatible with existing frameworks and offers researchers a new perspective on the factors driving the popularity and spread (or lack of popular engagement with) a given media text and its audience.

  • Legal Challenges to State Censorship, 1915–1981
    392 Book Reviews moral, family-focused, citizen ideals . were contrasted with images of urban-affiliated youth and Left political activist movements that suggested a ‘rejection of American values’ and of ‘straight American society’’’ (79). Expanding on this theme, a fascinating overview of MTM Productions’ ‘‘quality comedies’’ of the 1970s offers richly detailed analyses of The Mary Tyler Moore Show, The Bob Newhart Show, and WKRP in Cincinnati, contending that while these shows presented a ‘‘newly urbane imagination of the Midwest’’ (113) they also deflected larger issues of dissent and unrest prevalent in the Vietnam and post-Vietnam eras, representing the Heartland as a place ‘‘untouched by political turmoil . which survived the sixties unfazed, unaltered and in balance’’ (117). Among other topics, remaining chapters explore the controversial portrayals of lesbianism in Rosanne and Ellen, as well as how news coverage and commemora- tion of the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing drew insistently on the Heartland narrative. There are a few problematic areas. Although the book is for the most part engagingly written, it is occasionally burdened with dense and repetitive academic jargon, revealing its origins as a dissertation. Also, while likely the decision of the publisher and not the author, the absence of a bibliography is inappropriate for a major work of scholarship. These concerns do not detract from Johnson’s overall accomplishment, however. Her work is thoroughly researched, conceptually sophisticated, and offers a fresh rethinking of the history and cultural politics of television. A fine example of the exciting new scholarship emerging in television studies, Heart- land TV is a ground-breaking study and likely to become a future classic.

    120 Years 1893 - 2013 Our Living Legacy: HEALTHIER COMMUNITIES 2013 ANNUAL REPORT & HONOR ROLL www.mcw.edu Dear Friends and Colleagues In 2013, we celebrated the 120th anniversary of the Medical College of Wisconsin. Our origin dates to 1893 with the establishment of the Wisconsin College of Physicians and Surgeons. It was the vision of our founders to educate physicians and scientists who would go forth to meet the health needs of the growing population and raise the standard of medical care in Wisconsin communities and beyond. Throughout its history, this institution has served as a prime force for improving the level of health in our community and state. Our legacy can be measured in the thousands of doctors and scientists taught and trained here, and in more than 200 significant research discoveries made by faculty that have improved medical capabilities. But ultimately our legacy is told in the countless people restored to healthier lives. From the roots planted 120 years ago, MCW has grown into a nationally recognized leader in education, research, clinical Jon D. Hammes (Far right) care, and community engagement. Our work today and the Chairman, Board of Trustees, Medical College of Wisconsin actions we set in motion now will affect the health and lives of generations ahead. In this Report, we honor our anniversary by highlighting stories that connect our past and future and carry John R. Raymond, Sr., MD (Center) forward our legacy of creating healthier communities.

My contribution is to take the character -- created by the playwright and acted out by the actor -- and reinvent it for the reader.” Al Hirschfeld in The World of Hirschfeld, 1970 Al Hirschfeld was born in St. Louis in 1903 but his family moved to New York City in 1914 where he would remain for most of the next 90 years. Always the artist making drawings, prints and paintings, Hirschfeld completed artwork for more than twenty publications including The Herald Tribune, The New Yorker, The Los Angeles Times, Business Week, Playbill, TV Guide, Town & Country, Playboy, People, Collier’s, Life, Time, Look, Rolling Stone, and Reader’s Digest. In 1943 Hirschfeld married Dolly Haas who was a well-known European actress he met when on assignment to draw a sketch of a summer theater company. The two were married for just over 50 years and had one daughter, the famous Nina. Finding her name hidden in his drawings became an obsession for some of his fans. Less well known is that his wife Dolly occasionally appeared in the background of his drawings. Al Hirschfeld became the first artist in history to have his name on a U.S.
