  • “Carrie Fisher Sent Me”
    Unbound: A Journal of Digital Scholarship Realizing Resistance: An Interdisciplinary Conference on Star Wars, Episodes VII, VIII & IX Issue 1, No. 1, Fall 2019 “CARRIE FISHER SENT ME” Princess Leia as an avatar of resistance in the Women’s March Christina M. Knopf Keywords: Star Wars, Resistance, Women’s March A January 2017 article from the Independent led with the words, “Across the world, Carrie Fisher's rebel princess turned general become [sic] a source of hope and inspiration for women everywhere” (Loughrey 2017, para. 1). The article was loaded with images from Twitter of protest signs bearing Carrie Fisher’s visage with her iconic hair rolls superimposed with such slogans as “Woman’s Place is in the Resistance,” “We are the Resistance,” and “Rebel Scum.” Signs found in Twitter posts, news articles, and published archives revealed numerous Star Wars-inspired messages of feminist rebellion and resistance. Some featured Princess Leia as Rosie the Riveter, the emblem of the Resistance fighters tattooed on her arm or taking the place of Rosie’s employment badge on her collar. Signs recreated the Star Wars’ ITC Serif Gothic Heavy font to proclaim that “The Women Strike Back,” “The Fempire Strikes Back,” “The Estrogen Empire Strikes Back,” and “The Female Force Awakens,” others presented the Resistance insignia and/or Princess Leia’s face stating “Resistance is Built on Hope.” Some protestors dressed in a full Princess Leia costumes from A New Hope, promising to defeat the Dark Side. Some marchers paraphrased Leia’s iconic plea to Obi Wan, and declared, “We are Our Only Hope.” A sign paraphrasing Yoda argued that “Fear leads to anger.

  • Rebellion, Republic, and Resistance: Exploring the Politics of Disney's Star Wars Films
    Rebellion, Republic, and Resistance: Exploring the Politics of Disney’s Star Wars Films By Alex Baughman Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for Departmental Honors In the Department of Political Science Hood College April 2019 1 Abstract Star Wars is arguably one of the most significant cultural franchises in the United States of the past 40 years. George Lucas’ original trilogy has spawned an abundance of media, the most prominent of which is the film saga. A wealth of research and literature has been conducted and written on the original and prequel trilogies, but a relative paucity of scholarly discourse exists since Disney acquired the property in 2012. This study seeks to fill a portion of that gap in literature. I begin by reviewing the literature on film’s capacity to influence viewers’ political attitudes, and why fictional films are able to do so via the theoretical Extended Elaboration Likelihood Model. Next, I discuss the various political commentary and scholarship on the original and prequel trilogies, and build a case inquiry into the sequel trilogy as a Disney property. Through focus groups, I explore the political messages received from the Disney Star Wars films as represented by Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015) and contrast them with those of the early Star Wars films as represented by Star Wars: Episode IV—A New Hope (1977). I find evidence that viewers of the original trilogy are exposed to libertarian ideological messages and viewers of the sequel trilogy are exposed to progressive ideological messages. While the qualitative results offer no generalizable conclusions, the implications and themes of this study certainly warrant further research.

  • Young Jedi Knights 14
    Star Wars Young Jedi Knights Book 14 Under a Black Sun Crisis at Crystal Reef by Kevin J. Anderson and Rebecca Moesta ######################################################################### ###### This one is for Catherine Ulatowski-Sidor for helping us look organized even when we're not, for being there to catch any balls we drop, for being a careful and enthusiastic reader, and for being a friend ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Thanks to Matt Bialer and Josh Holbreich of the William Morris Agency for their encouragement on this project; Sue Rostoni, Allan Kausch, and Lucy Autrey Wilson at Lucas Licensing for their valuable input-, Ginjer Buchanan and Jessica Faust at Boulevard Books for their unflagging support throughout these fourteen books; Dave Dorman for his fabulous cover art on each and every book; Debra Ray at AnderZone for cheering us on; Sarah Jones at WordFire, Inc for keeping things running smoothly; and, as always, Jonathan Cowan for being our first test-reader. A special thanks to the many, many fans who wrote or visited us at book signings to tell us how much the Young Jedi Knights have meant to them. We couldn't have kept going without you. On the grassy landing field in front of the Jedi academy's Great Temple, an old-model cargo ship gleamed in the morning sun. Though some might have considered the Lightning Rod little more than a junk hauler well past its prime-perhaps better suited to be hauled away as junk-it was Zekk's pride and joy. The young, dark-haired Jedi walked in a slow circle around his ship, appraising the recent repairs with his sharp emerald gaze.

    Unbound: A Journal of Digital Scholarship Realizing Resistance: An Interdisciplinary Conference on Star Wars, Episodes VII, VIII & IX Issue 1, No. 1, Fall 2019 USING THE FORCE OF REPRESENTATION The New Hope Against the Rise of White Nationalism Casey Walker Abstract: Christine Cornea’s article “From Isolationism to Globalism: An Overview of Politics and Ethics in the Hollywood Science Fiction Film” discusses the discourse on nationalism, isolationism, and the fear of globalization in Hollywood’s science fiction films beginning in the 1930s. Cornea concludes these films have an “overwhelming concern with the defence [sic] of the nation throughout this period” and notes “the frequent narrative emphasis on confrontation (whether competitive, threatening, or violent) across circumscribed borderlines.” These filmic manifestations of normative anxiety concerning migration and the immigrant "Other" create a space in which nativism and annihilation of immigrants are celebrated. However, in the most recent installments of the Star Wars franchise, Episodes VII & VIII, the films advocate a more global, borderless society where humans and aliens coexist in a united front of resistance against the Empire. The racial diversity of the human characters further accentuates this conscious effort on the part of the studio and filmmakers to make inclusion and diversity the heart of the resistance against an Empire, which itself is emblematic of the mostly white, mostly male hierarchy of nativism and exclusion. This paper will use previous literature (such as the article mentioned above) to launch a discussion of the ways in which the latest installments in the Star Wars canon subvert the tradition of nationalist and nativist tendencies in science fiction films, creating a diverse resistance, while also serving as fertile ground for a response to the rise of nationalism (specifically white nationalism) in our nation today.

  • From Sidious to Nixon: the Parallels Between Star Wars and Vietnam ​ ​
    From Sidious to Nixon: The Parallels Between Star Wars and Vietnam ​ ​ A Senior Project presented to the Faculty of the History Department California Polytechnic State University – San Luis Obispo In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Bachelor of Liberal Arts By Brennan Simpson March, 2021 © 2021 Brennan Simpson 1 In the case of a film franchise that features twelve movies, five television series, and various other forms of media by the time this paper was written, many people may be surprised to hear that Star Wars was actually inspired by one of the most questionable moments in ​ ​ American history. However, the time period in which Star Wars creator George Lucas first wrote ​ ​ what became this world’s ‘‘first step into a larger world’’ actually greatly reflected what ended up on the big screen. Even though the Star Wars movies take place ‘‘a long time ago in a galaxy ​ ​ far, far away….,’’ it has been publicly stated in interviews that Lucas based both Star Wars ​ media on the Vietnam War and their main villain, Darth Sidious, on former U.S. President Richard Nixon. Though there have been a few scholarly works since the first Star Wars movie ​ ​ was released in theaters in 1977 that have attempted to explore these parallels, none of them has directly explored how Lucas’s long-standing views on the Vietnam War affected certain key moments of the first six Star Wars movies. This thesis explores George Lucas’ antiwar activism ​ ​ before creating Star Wars to demonstrate how remarkably similar the films and related media of ​ ​ this franchise truly are to both various aspects of the Vietnam War and Richard Nixon’s rise to power.

  • Realizing Resistance Through Scholarship and Beyond
    Unbound: A Journal of Digital Scholarship Realizing Resistance: An Interdisciplinary Conference on Star Wars, Episodes VII, VIII & IX Issue 1, No. 1, Fall 2019 REALIZING RESISTANCE THROUGH SCHOLARSHIP AND BEYOND An Introduction Samantha Langsdale Although Star Wars: Episode IV–A New Hope may have started out on shaky ground, its cinematic release in 1977 forever changed the landscape of American pop culture. As Douglas Brode has argued, “Star Wars, simply put, had turned out to be not merely the latest momentary blip on the entertainment screen but an essential element of how we define ourselves through the movies and related media” (2012, 7). Far from simply reflecting a particular film genre, Star Wars has become a cultural phenomenon that has impacted pop culture for over four decades. As such, we organized a scholarly conference titled “Realizing Resistance: An Interdisciplinary Conference on Star Wars, Episodes VII, VIII & IX,” held May 2–4, 2019 at the University of North Texas, in order to analyze these texts and their cultural impact. This inaugural issue of Unbound: A Journal of Digital Scholarship features the proceedings from our event and demonstrates the complexity, as well as the joy, inherent in Star Wars scholarship. Throughout the original trilogy, the prequels, and most recently the sequels, the films have focused on the struggle between Imperial forces and rebellious fighters who seek to throw off the yoke of an authoritarian regime. In the opening crawl of Episode VII–The Force Awakens (2015), we are told that the Resistance, led by General Leia Organa, is fighting against the First Order so that peace and justice may be restored to the galaxy.
