  • HBO: Brand Management and Subscriber Aggregation: 1972-2007
    1 HBO: Brand Management and Subscriber Aggregation: 1972-2007 Submitted by Gareth Andrew James to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English, January 2011. This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. ........................................ 2 Abstract The thesis offers a revised institutional history of US cable network Home Box Office that expands on its under-examined identity as a monthly subscriber service from 1972 to 1994. This is used to better explain extensive discussions of HBO‟s rebranding from 1995 to 2007 around high-quality original content and experimentation with new media platforms. The first half of the thesis particularly expands on HBO‟s origins and early identity as part of publisher Time Inc. from 1972 to 1988, before examining how this affected the network‟s programming strategies as part of global conglomerate Time Warner from 1989 to 1994. Within this, evidence of ongoing processes for aggregating subscribers, or packaging multiple entertainment attractions around stable production cycles, are identified as defining HBO‟s promotion of general monthly value over rivals. Arguing that these specific exhibition and production strategies are glossed over in existing HBO scholarship as a result of an over-valuing of post-1995 examples of „quality‟ television, their ongoing importance to the network‟s contemporary management of its brand across media platforms is mapped over distinctions from rivals to 2007.

  • REVISTA ÚRSULA Nº2 Autores Franceses En La Revista Artístico Del Siglo XX, Part of His (2018) Almanaque Artístico Del Siglo Translations of the Work of French XX
    ÚRSULA Revista de jóvenes investigadores en literatura hispanoamericana Úrsula. Revista de jóvenes investigadores en literatura hispanoamericana. Nº 2 (Abril 2018) Edición realizada en Madrid por: Blanca Gómez García Laura María Martínez Martínez Úrsula es una revista electrónica de jóvenes investigadores sobre literatura hispanoamericana que busca publicar y promocionar artículos críticos que iluminen obras literarias no tratadas, ensayos que hagan tambalear las líneas rojas del canon o que miren a la literatura desde un prima inédito y diferente. La revista nace con la idea de que hay un potencial crítico aún sin explotar: un Alberto Zum Felde, un Ángel Rama o una Beatriz Sarlo que aún no han conseguido cruzar las fronteras de las revistas literarias consagradas. Creemos firmemente que la juventud aporta un matiz diferente a la crítica literaria. El peso ausente de los libros no leídos y una curiosidad esfervescente marca una mirada distinta, atrevida y algo ingenua que no debería quedar recluida en intentos fallidos de cajón de escritorio. Consecuentemente, Úrsula aspira a ser la matriz generadora de un espacio de diálogo que una a los jóvenes investigadores españoles, europeos y latinoamericanos. En definitiva, Úrsula más que una revista, es un proyecto que crece con la persistencia, resistencia y fuerza de la propia Úrsula Iguarán y que aspira a alcanzar una proyección internacional, temporal y cultural semejante.
