The Ithacan has learned that Tarr was of­ fered the position but turned it down. "It's simply a matter of personal consid­ erations and other competing priorities," Tarr said. "We thought Ithaca College was a won­ derful place, so it has nothing to do with the college or anything negative in that regard." -Dunnick, calling the two withdrawals "sad news," declined to provide further details.

  • Madonna: Like a Crone
    ROCK ON: WOMEN, AGEING AND POPULAR MUSIC MADONNA: LIKE A CRONE Reaching fifty in 2008 was a watershed year not just for Madonna, but also for her millions of fans. She is a vital figure for women across generations: through her performances she has popularised feminist politics and debate, and promoted a message of sexual empowerment. Much of her career has hinged on this concept of self-liberation and sexual expressiveness. As a young star she was powerfully seductive - one of the first female performers in the pop mainstream to capitalise on video as a marketing tool, and to make that nexus between sex, pop and commerce so explicit. She also challenged notions of the male/female gaze with her book Sex, and videos like 'Justify My Love'. Much of her allure was centred around her visual image, and her ability to combine an inclusive sexuality with compelling costume changes and personae. Female stars in her wake, from Britney Spears to Lady Gaga, have been clearly influenced by her ideas on performance and sexuality However, becoming a mature woman and a mother has presented her with a dilemma. She is fiercely competitive and it is a matter of personal pride to 'stay on top' in the singles market. But in having to compete with younger women, she is subject to the same pressures to look young, slim and beautiful. As a result, she has to continually sculpt and resculpt her body through rigorous workouts and diet regimes. The sculpted body first emerged when she shed the voluptuous 'Toy Boy' look of her early career for her 'Open Your Heart' video.

  • Madonna's Postmodern Revolution
    Journal of Literature and Art Studies, January 2021, Vol. 11, No. 1, 26-32 doi: 10.17265/2159-5836/2021.01.004 D DAVID PUBLISHING The Rebel Madame: Madonna’s Postmodern Revolution Diego Santos Vieira de Jesus ESPM-Rio, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil The aim is to examine Madonna’s revolution regarding gender, sexuality, politics, and religion with the focus on her songs, videos, and live performances. The main argument indicates that Madonna has used postmodern strategies of representation to challenge the foundational truths of sex and gender, promote gender deconstruction and sexual multiplicity, create political sites of resistance, question the Catholic dissociation between the physical and the divine, and bring visual and musical influences from multiple cultures and marginalized identities. Keywords: Madonna, postmodernism, pop culture, sex, gender, sexuality, politics, religion, spirituality Introduction Madonna is not only the world’s highest earning female entertainer, but a pop culture icon. Her career is based on an overall direction that incorporates vision, customer and industry insight, leveraging competences and weaknesses, consistent implementation, and a drive towards continuous renewal. She constructed herself often rewriting her past, organized her own cult borrowing from multiple subaltern subcultures, and targeted different audiences. As a postmodern icon, Madonna also reflects social contradictions and attitudes toward sexuality and religion and addresses the complexities of race and gender. Her use of multiple media—music, concert tours, films, and videos—shows how images and symbols associated with multiracial, LGBT, and feminist groups were inserted into the mainstream. She gave voice to political interventions in mass popular culture, although many critics argue that subaltern voices were co-opted to provide maximum profit.

  • Case One Madonna
    AGFC01 16/12/2004 17:15 Page 1 case one Madonna TEACHING NOTE SYNOPSIS The case examines the career and the success of Madonna Ciccone – “the best known woman on the planet.” The central issue is explaining the success of Madonna in the highly competitive, highly volatile world of entertainment, where Madonna has been a megastar since 1984. The case offers students the opportunity to explore the nature and meaning of strategy within a fast-paced business environment and to consider the role of strategy in career success. The case represents an expansion of the illustration provided in the first chapter of Contemporary Strategy Analysis (5th edn, strategy capsule 1.1). TEACHING OBJECTIVES The purpose of the case is to allow students to consider three questions: “What is strategy?”, “What role does strategy play in success?” and “What are the critical ingredients of a successful strategy?” The case forces students to address the meaning of strategy in environments where turbulence renders detailed planning impossible and to consider the notion that strat- egy can be both implicit and emergent as well as explicit and intended. The case also introduces the idea that strategy exists for both individuals and organ- izations; indeed, in this case there is some ambiguity as to whether “Madonna” is Madonna the person or Madonna the show-biz organization. This issue is important This note was prepared by Robert M. Grant. 1 AGFC01 16/12/2004 17:15 Page 2 2 MADONNA in terms of making the point that strategy is relevant to the future careers of business students.

Whether the pieces in Writing@SVSU are attached to a prize, the works you’ll find here emphasize that all writing matters, even when it’s not done for an English class (to paraphrase the title of an essay that follows). Given the political climate, where commentary is often delivered by our leaders through late- night or early-a.m. tweets, we hope you find it refreshing to read the pieces on the following pages. Beyond incorporating far more than 140 characters, these pieces encourage us to reflect at length, as they themselves were the product of much thought and reflection. Beyond being sources and the product of reflection, these texts remind us that the work of the university is, in part, to build bridges, often through words.

The icon has asked such designers as Christian Lacroix, who did the crystal-studded corset seen here; Karl Lagerfeld for Chanel; Dolce & Gabbana, and Stella McCartney to reinterpret some of the key looks from her past extravaganzas. And the styles are sure to reverberate through the fashion world. As Arianne Phillips, stylist and costume designer for the tour, told WWD: “No one can deny the unique relationship Madonna has with fashion and fashion has with Madonna.” For more on the tour, see page 3.
