Breathed is a top-selling comic-strip auteur who professes both ambivalence and of Berkeley Breathed The Art embarrassed discomfort with the form. A lifelong creative contradiction, he is a sentimental children’s-book author with a jaundiced and suspicious view of the world. Bridging the two extremes and keeping them from flying apart is an ebullient sense of humor that permeates it all.

Loose Tails, the strip’s first collection, would go on to sell over one million copies, and Bloom County would eventually appear in 1200 newspapers with an estimated readership of 75 million. At the peak of its popularity, Breathed walked away from Bloom County in 1989, but would later revisit his creations with the Sunday-only strips Outland and Opus. In addition to his cartooning, Breathed still works in California as a children’s author, novelist, screenwriter, and film producer.

    Bloom County – Eine Kommentierte Comicübersetzung

    Zürcher Hochschule für Angewandte Wissenschaften Departement Angewandte Linguistik Institut für Übersetzen und Dolmetschen Studiengang Übersetzen Diplomarbeit von Thomas Zeller Bloom County – Eine kommentierte Comicübersetzung Referent: Simon Lenz M. A., dipl. Übersetzer FH Abgabetermin: 15. Juli 2009 Abstract The main part of this thesis consists of a German translation of the US-American funny comic Bloom County – Toons for our times by Berkeley Breathed, published in 1984. In order to establish basic translation strategies, a closer look has been taken at the various phenomena that may occur in comics. The main challenge with regard to translation has turned out to be the connection between verbal and nonverbal elements. This connection may cause translation problems if, for example, a pun (verbal element) is based on a vis- ual element (nonverbal element). Since, while verbal content can be changed in transla- tion, nonverbal elements cannot be altered, the translator can be confronted with heavy constraints: on the one hand, the translation of the verbal elements has to make sense in relation to the nonverbal elements; on the other hand, the number of characters of the target text must not significantly exceed the number of characters of the source text. Thus, two main strategies can be applied: compensation of the verbal element in question (e.g. a pun) in a different panel or deviation from the source text. The latter strategy can be divided into several subgroups and may lead to a complete deviation from not only the lexical or syntactic level but also from the semantic level to reach the same effect in the target text as intended in the source text.

    BECAUSE COMICS: COMICS LITERACY AND MULTIMODAL PEDAGOGY A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the North Dakota State University of Agriculture and Applied Science By Shane Anthony Gomes In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Major Program: Rhetoric, Writing and Culture June 2020 Fargo, North Dakota North Dakota State University Graduate School Title Because Comics: Comics Literacy and Multimodal Pedagogy By Shane Anthony Gomes The Supervisory Committee certifies that this disquisition complies with North Dakota State University’s regulations and meets the accepted standards for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY SUPERVISORY COMMITTEE: Emily Wicktor Chair Lisa Arnold Alison Graham-Bertolini Michael Strand Approved: July 10, 2020 Stephenson J. Beck Date Department Chair ABSTRACT How and what we teach in the post-secondary English classroom has tremendous power, both regarding individual students and larger contexts in which they function. As post-secondary instructors, our pedagogical approach to our subjects can impact our student’s abilities and experiences directly through interactions with texts, and also impact our specific institutions, our academic disciplines, and larger social structures. This project will propose what is best termed a disruptive pedagogy, founded in comics literacy, and a primary goal is to effect change in the classroom and therefore in our students’ later social and professional contexts. Increasingly, what we teach in English classrooms is moving towards a pedagogy of multimodality that reflects the contexts of our students outside of the classroom. Multimodal researchers Jennifer Rowsell and Eryn Decoste state that “To expand notions of composition, there is a need to not only introduce other modes such as visuals, sounds and interactive modes, but also develop frameworks, activities and lesson ideas to actually teach other modes of representation and expression” (246-247).
