Summer 2015 - 3 Unique Zoitiques Continued from Page 3 Have Found Their Way Into My Tramp Dogs Unique Zoitiques By Cindy Michalak aving just returned from the BCOA 2015 national specialty, it felt like I was in a fantasy world. Seeing so many gorgeous dogs was unbelievably fun. I didn’t see one dog there that I wouldn’t love. That sort of put me on track to write about a fantasy, althoughH I’m not sure if that can be categorized as a fantasy or just a cartoon. Lady and the Tramp was one of my favorite stories as a child, even before I knew about Borzoi. Therefore, this column is dedicated to Walt Disney’s Lady and the Tramp collectibles, fea- turing Boris, the “sad sad wolfhound” of course! hear Boris howling in the background, singing his heart out about his “Bublichki,” Lady. Most people that purchased this set have broken it into single pins, selling them separately on eBay. Why would you break up the set? The set is valued at $50, although I’ve seen them selling the Borzoi only for $35. The first several items are brooches. As a child, I always hoped the dogs in the pound were all rescued from there and not just Lady. All the main animal characters were included for this “photo shoot” from the Siamese cats to the dogs from the pound. I have noticed that the larger brooches were made like tie-tacs with the fasteners shaped like Mickey Mouse ears and made of rubber. This measures 1 ¼ x 2¾″. As with most (if not all) of the Lady and the Tramp products, once they were sold they were discontinued. This brooch is valued at $75. The next brooch, also with the Mickey Mouse backings, shows the dog pound dogs only. What a lovely bunch. Even though there are other Last of the brooches is a 6-piece collection. I didn’t show all of the breeds involved, I’d adopt all of pins that were part of this set as it would have been too difficult them just to keep them together. to actually see Boris. All scenes included in this series of pins Not sure why they state this is were Lady and Tramp eating spaghetti; Si and Am the Siamese “Limited Edition” since all of the cats, Lady and Tramp’s first meeting; Jock the Scottie with Trusty items with Boris included seem to the Bloodhound; Boris the Wolfhound with Trusty, Jock, Peg the disappear into Never-Neverland Peke, Pedro the Chihuahua and Bull the Bulldog. Oddly enough, (pun intended). Measuring 1½ x 2″ Dachsie the Dachshund wasn’t included in this set. The pins are this pin is valued around $50. done in enamel with goldtone trim and measure 1½ x 2″.

  • ACCENTS and STEREOTYPES in ANIMATED FILMS the Case of Zootopia (2016)
    Lingue e Linguaggi Lingue Linguaggi 40 (2020), 361-378 ISSN 2239-0367, e-ISSN 2239-0359 DOI 10.1285/i22390359v40p361 http://siba-ese.unisalento.it, © 2020 Università del Salento This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 ACCENTS AND STEREOTYPES IN ANIMATED FILMS The case of Zootopia (2016) LUCA VALLERIANI UNIVERSITÀ DI ROMA “LA SAPIENZA” Abstract – Language variation is an extremely useful tool to convey information about a character, even when this means playing with stereotypes, which are often associated to some dialects and sociolects (Lippi-Green 1997). Accents generally bear a specific social meaning within the cultural environment of the source text, this being the main reason why they are often particularly difficult to translate with varieties of the target language, even though there are several cases where this strategy proved to be a valid choice, especially in animation (Ranzato 2010). Building on previous research on the language of cartoons (Lippi-Green 1997, but also more recently Bruti 2009, Minutella 2016, Parini 2019), this study is aimed at exploring language variation and how this is deeply connected to cultural stereotypes in the animated Disney film Zootopia (Howard et al. 2016). After giving an outline of the social and regional varieties of American English found in the original version (Beaudine et al. 2017; Crewe 2017; Soares 2017) a special focus will be given to the Italian adaptation of the film through the analysis of the strategies chosen by adapters to render a similar varied sociolinguistic situation in Italian, with particular interest in the correspondence between language and stereotype.

  • Disney's Animated Animals: a Potential Source of Opinions And
    Disney’s Animated Animals: A Potential Source of Opinions and Knowledge Stephanie Eidt Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for Graduation from the Malone University Honors Program Advisor: Karyn Collie, Ph.D. April 20, 2016 Introduction Psychologists have traditionally assumed that what is not innate to all people is learned in discrete pieces, shaping how we perceive and experience the world. Humans can be described as cumulative assortments of their cultures. This is evident in the differences in food, clothing, and social norms among countless other aspects of cultures. Herzog (2010) describes the concept of sociozoology, in which opinions about animals are highly influenced by culture, as is seen with the dog that is a beloved pet in the United States but an annoyance in Saudi Arabia. In Western society and increasingly around the world, culture draws from popular media, making it undeniably influential in how we determine the value of ideas, objects, and organisms. The growing impact of the media cannot really be overstated. It has been described as a “teaching machine” on level or on greater footing than the traditional outlets of family, school, and church (Giroux, 1994). Preissler and Carey found that young children are capable of transferring new labels from pictures to their real-world counterparts (as cited in Ganea, Ma, & DeLoache, 2011, p. 1422), and Ganea et al. (2011) demonstrated this ability specifically with the transfer of biological information from books to actual animals. Handing a toddler the remote control or a tablet is giving him an opportunity to soak up particular interpretations of the world for better or worse.
