  • The Media Assemblage: the Twentieth-Century Novel in Dialogue with Film, Television, and New Media
    THE MEDIA ASSEMBLAGE: THE TWENTIETH-CENTURY NOVEL IN DIALOGUE WITH FILM, TELEVISION, AND NEW MEDIA BY PAUL STEWART HACKMAN DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2010 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Michael Rothberg, Chair Professor Robert Markley Associate Professor Jim Hansen Associate Professor Ramona Curry ABSTRACT At several moments during the twentieth-century, novelists have been made acutely aware of the novel as a medium due to declarations of the death of the novel. Novelists, at these moments, have found it necessary to define what differentiates the novel from other media and what makes the novel a viable form of art and communication in the age of images. At the same time, writers have expanded the novel form by borrowing conventions from these newer media. I describe this process of differentiation and interaction between the novel and other media as a “media assemblage” and argue that our understanding of the development of the novel in the twentieth century is incomplete if we isolate literature from the other media forms that compete with and influence it. The concept of an assemblage describes a historical situation in which two or more autonomous fields interact and influence one another. On the one hand, an assemblage is composed of physical objects such as TV sets, film cameras, personal computers, and publishing companies, while, on the other hand, it contains enunciations about those objects such as claims about the artistic merit of television, beliefs about the typical audience of a Hollywood blockbuster, or academic discussions about canonicity.

  • Citizen Kane
    Citizen Kane Citizen Kane, motion picture based on the life of newspaper mogul William Randolph Hearst. Released in 1941, this Academy Award-winning film stars Orson Welles as Charles Foster Kane, a dynamic young man who rises from rags to riches in the newspaper business by using increasingly unscrupulous tactics. Kane’s quest for power extends to his personal life, leading to the eventual dissolution of his marriage and the loss of his friends. Citizen Kane is widely considered by critics to be one of the great films of all time for its storytelling, as well as its innovative camera work by Gregg Toland. The film was awarded registration in the National Film Preservation Board in 1989. Director Orson Welles Cast Orson Welles (Charles Foster Kane) Joseph Cotten (Jedediah Leland) Dorothy Comingore (Susan Alexander) Everett Sloane (Mr. Bernstein) Ray Collins (Boss J. W. 'Big Jim' Gettys) George Coulouris (Walter Parks Thatcher) Agnes Moorehead (Mary Kane) Paul Stewart (Raymond) Ruth Warrick (Emily Norton Kane) Erskine Sanford (Herbert Carter) William Alland (Jerry Thompson) Fortunio Bonanova (Matisti) Gus Schilling (Head waiter) Philip Van Zandt (Mr. Rawlston) Georgia Backus (Miss Anderson) Harry Shannon (Jim Kane) Sonny Bupp (Kane III) Buddy Swan (Kane at age 8) Alan Ladd (Reporter) Arthur O'Connell (Reporter) Awards Academy Award for Best Writing—Original Screenplay (1942): Herman J. Mankiewicz Trivia Citizen Kane suffered from its unfavorable portrayal of the publishing giant Hearst. Hearst’s monopoly of newspapers and media outlets not only refused to mention Welles’s film, but all other films released by his studio, R.K.O (Radio-Keith-Orpheum).

  • Radio's War of the Worlds Broadcast (1938)
    Radio's War of the Worlds Broadcast (1938) Radio's War of the Worlds Broadcast (1938) The script of the broadcast is available here. Radio Listeners in Panic, Taking War Drama as Fact Many Flee Homes to Escape 'Gas Raid From Mars'--Phone Calls Swamp Police at Broadcast of Wells Fantasy This article appeared in the New York Times on Oct. 31, 1938. A wave of mass hysteria seized thousands of radio listeners between 8:15 and 9:30 o'clock last night when a broadcast of a dramatization of H. G. Wells's fantasy, "The War of the Worlds," led thousands to believe that an interplanetary conflict had started with invading Martians spreading wide death and destruction in New Jersey and New York. The broadcast, which disrupted households, interrupted religious services, created traffic jams and clogged communications systems, was made by Orson Welles, who as the radio character, "The Shadow," used to give "the creeps" to countless child listeners.
