  • PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 and 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak a Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate
    PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 AND 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized.

    Monty Python Tops Fave Brit-flick Poll February 1, 2004 Amazon.co.uk and IMDB announce top 40 favourite British films of all-time Monty Python and the Holy Grail has been voted the favourite British film of all time--knocking Stanley Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange into second place with more than double the votes--in a poll conducted by Amazon.co.uk and the Internet Movie Database (IMDB), which coincides with the BAFTA awards this Sunday February 15. The film was the comfortable winner, taking a quarter of the total votes in the poll of over 7,000 people conducted by Amazon.co.uk and IMDB. The final list reveals the public's 40 favourite British films ranging from old classics such as Great Expectations, Oliver Twist and The 39 Steps to more recent British comedies such as Love Actually (out on DVD March 26 and available to pre-order now with £10 off at Amazon.co.uk), Four Weddings and a Funeral and The Full Monty.Featured Films The final list reflects the huge diversity of British films with the top 20 featuring everything from gritty realism to surreal comedy; from majestic epics to spy films; and from classic war stories to classic Shakespeare. This survey demonstrates the eclectic nature of British films and here at Amazon.co.uk we aim to offer the biggest selection of these genre-spanning movies comments Mark Walker, DVD Product Manager at Amazon.co.uk. I think the biggest surprise is the presence of two Monty Python films in the top 10.

  • Oscars and America 2011
    AMERICA AND THE MOVIES WHAT THE ACADEMY AWARD NOMINEES FOR BEST PICTURE TELL US ABOUT OURSELVES I am glad to be here, and honored. I spent some time with Ben this summer in the exotic venues of Oxford and Cambridge, but it was on the bus ride between the two where we got to share our visions and see the similarities between the two. I am excited about what is happening here at Arizona State and look forward to seeing what comes of your efforts. I’m sure you realize the opportunity you have. And it is an opportunity to study, as Karl Barth once put it, the two Bibles. One, and in many ways the most important one is the Holy Scripture, which tells us clearly of the great story of Creation, Fall, Redemption and Consummation, the story by which all stories are measured for their truth, goodness and beauty. But the second, the book of Nature, rounds out that story, and is important, too, in its own way. Nature in its broadest sense includes everything human and finite. Among so much else, it gives us the record of humanity’s attempts to understand the reality in which God has placed us, whether that humanity understands the biblical story or not. And that is why we study the great novels, short stories and films of humankind: to see how humanity understands itself and to compare that understanding to the reality we find proclaimed in the Bible. Without those stories, we would have to go through the experiences of fallen humanity to be able to sympathize with them, and we don’t want to have to do that, unless we have a screw loose somewhere in our brain.

  • AS YOU LIKE IT, the First Production of Our 50Th Anniversary Season, and the First Show in Our Shakespearean Act
    Welcome It is my pleasure to welcome you to AS YOU LIKE IT, the first production of our 50th anniversary season, and the first show in our Shakespearean act. Shakespeare’s plays have been a cornerstone of our work at CSC, and his writing continues to reflect and refract our triumphs and trials as individuals and collectively as a society. We inevitability turn to Shakespeare to express our despair, bewilderment, and delight. So, what better place to start our anniversary year than with the contemplative search for self and belonging in As You Like It. At the heart of this beautiful play is a speech that so perfectly encapsulates our mortality. All the world’s a stage, and we go through so many changes as we make our exits and our entrances. You will have noticed many changes for CSC. We have a new look, new membership opportunities, and are programming in a new way with more productions and a season that splits into what we have called “acts.” Each act focuses either on a playwright or on an era of work. It seemed appropriate to inaugurate this with a mini-season of Shakespeare, which continues with Fiasco Theater's TWELFTH NIGHT. Then there is Act II: Americans dedicated to work by American playwrights Terrence McNally (FIRE AND AIR) and Tennessee Williams (SUMMER AND SMOKE); very little of our repertoire has focused on classics written by Americans. This act also premieres a new play by Terrence McNally, as I feel that the word classic can also encapsulate the “bigger idea” and need not always be the work of a writer from the past.

Section 3, "Language Trends," examines some controversial r trends in English vocabulary, and some developments too new to have received comment before. The fourth section, "Language Politics," treats several aspects of linguistic politics, from special attempts to deal with the ethnic, religious, or sex-specific elements of vocabulary to the broader issues of language both as a reflection of the public consciousness and the U.S. Constitution and as a refuge for the most private forms of expression.

  • “The Full Monty”, the 1997 British Comedy Film Directed by Peter Cattaneo, Tells a Complex Economic Story for the Viewer with a Critical Eye
    “The Full Monty”, the 1997 British comedy film directed by Peter Cattaneo, tells a complex economic story for the viewer with a critical eye. The end of the story, insofar as we can see from the movie, may appear utterly ridiculous at first glance. A group of regular guys stripping naked and dancing seductively in front of their wives and fellow townspeople is shocking. But these guys reached this point as a result of a variety of circumstances that deserve some examination. In this paper, I will consider four distinct economic phases which I believe are relevant to the characters’ lives. No particular economic theory is sufficient to explain what happened in Sheffield, England in reality or within the film. I will utilize various economic concepts and draw from renowned economic thinkers to present “The Full Monty”’s economic story. First, however, it is necessary to give a little background regarding the steel industry in northern England and the changes that occurred there by the time of the film. The city of Sheffield is located in South Yorkshire, England where the effects of the Industrial Revolution of the nineteenth century were extremely significant. In 1856, Henry Bessemer developed a technique in Sheffield which allowed for the mass production of steel (Investinsheffield). This development essentially made Sheffield king of the steel world. Its products, which included stainless steel cutlery and railroad tracks, were shipped around Europe and across the Atlantic to America. Though both the United States and Germany had overtaken Britain in terms of steel output by 1890, Sheffield’s dominance in the industry continued through the middle of the twentieth century.
