Présenté par Felicia Traistaru A été évalué par un jury composé par les personnes suivantes : Yakov Rabkin Président-rapporteur Bruno Ramirez Directeur de recherche Marta Boni Membre du jury iii RÉSUMÉ Ce mémoire est consacré à l’analyse de la télésérie américaine Mad Men en tant que reflet de la révolution créative aux États-Unis. À travers la fictive agence de publicité Sterling Cooper & Partners et de son charismatique directeur artistique, Don Draper, la série personnifie la culture corporatiste des cols blancs et les nouveaux défis encourus par l’homme de l’organisation dans les années soixante. Basée sur la méthode de l’historicisme, cette analyse historique met en évidence la manière dont Mad Men incarne cette décennie à partir des sources populaires telles que les romans, les films ou les magazines. Ce type de documents sont pris par les créateurs de la série comme l’expression des certaines valeurs et attitudes des années soixante mais aussi bien comme outil pour la critique des idées consacrées. Mad Men nous permet de comprendre la manière dont la révolution des techniques publicitaires se déroule dans le décor d’une société où les grands enjeux restent encore non résolus. Contrairement à l’image d’une époque caractérisée par les mouvements des droits civiques ou la guerre au Vietnam, cette nouvelle production se distingue par la reprise des aspects oubliés de la décennie tels que le machisme du monde corporatiste, la répression des femmes, les préjugés ethniques, le paradis mensonger de la banlieue. Grâce à sa vision iconoclaste des happy days, la série Mad Men est devenue une véritable œuvre culte à l’échelle mondiale. Diffusée sur la chaine AMC entre 2007 et 2015, elle n’a pas seulement atteint de grandes côtes d’écoute, elle a été aussi encensée par la critique et récompensée avec de nombreux prix. Mots clé : États-Unis, télésérie, Mad Men, années soixante, révolution créative, publicité, historicisme, cols blancs, la culture corporatiste, Deuxième Guerre mondiale. iv ABSTRACT This thesis is dedicated to the analysis of the American television drama series Mad Men as a representation of the creative revolution in the United States. Through the fictional advertising agency, Sterling Cooper & Partners and its charismatic creative director, Don Draper, the series embodies the white collar corporate culture and the new challenges incurred by the organizational man in the sixties. Based on the historicism, a method borrowed from the postmodern theories, this historical study analyses the way in which Mad Men represents this decade through the interpretation of some popular sources from that period such as novels, films or magazines. These kinds of documents are read as an expression of specific values and attitudes characteristic of the sixties; meanwhile they serve as a tool for criticizing a few common ideas about this period. Mad Men allows us to understand how the revolution in advertising techniques occurs against the backdrop of a society where the big social issues remained unsolved. In contrast to the image of a decade usually associated with civil rights movements or the Vietnam war, this new production brings up some forgotten aspects of the decade such as the male chauvinism of the corporate world, the repression of women, the prejudices against ethnics, the suburban false paradise. Due to its iconoclastic vision of the happy days, Mad Men has gained a cult status worldwide. Run on the cable network AMC between 2007 and 2015, the series has not only been highly rated, but it has been praised by critics and awarded many times. Key words : United States, TV drama series, Mad Men, the sixties, the creative revolution, white collars, corporate culture, World War Two. v TABLE DES MATIÉRES RÉSUMÉ ................................................................................................................................ iii ABSTRACT ............................................................................................................................. iv TABLE DES MATIÉRES ....................................................................................................... v ÉQUIPE .................................................................................................................................. vii INTRODUCTION.................................................................................................................... 1 Le cinéma et l’histoire – état de la question ....................................................................... 2 Les téléséries et l’histoire ..................................................................................................... 7 Les années soixante et le trauma de la guerre contemporaine ......................................... 9 Problématique..................................................................................................................... 12 Méthodologie....................................................................................................................... 13 Chapitre 1 : L’APOGÉE DE LA PUBLICITÉ AUX ÉTATS-UNIS ................................ 21 1.1 La culture de bureau et la révolution créative .......................................................... 22 1.1.1 Le canevas historique des années soixante ........................................................ 22 1.1.2 La culture des cols blancs .................................................................................. 24 1.1.3 L’apogée de la publicité aux États-Unis ............................................................ 25 1.1.4 Mad Men et la révolution créative des années soixante .................................... 28 1.1.5 L’honnêteté et l’esprit ludique : deux pierres angulaires de la révolution créative 34 1.1.6 Le nouveau visage du consommateur ................................................................ 36 1.1.7 Entre nostalgie et utopie .................................................................................... 38 1.2.

Friedan, author of The Feminine Mystique and “the mother of the modern womenʼs movement,” argues that a constitutional amendment guaranteeing men and women equal treatment under the law would put a stop to discriminatory legislation that left divorced women without alimony or child support. On the other side, Schlafly, an Illinois mother of six who has marshalled an army of conservative housewives into an unlikely political force to fight the ERA, declares American women “the luckiest class of people on earth.” Then Schlafly goes for the jugular. “You simply cannot legislate universal sympathy for the middle-aged woman,” she purrs, knowing that Friedan had been through a bitter divorce. “You, Mrs. Friedan, are the unhappiest women I have ever met.” “You are a traitor to your sex, an Aunt Tom,” fumes Friedan, taking the bait. “And you are a witch. God, Iʼd like to burn you at the stake!” Friedanʼs now-infamous rejoinder is resurrected in this fiery exchange in “Mrs.

  • Anne Sexton and Sylvia Plath from a Kristevan Perspective
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by OpenGrey Repository Transforming the Law of One: Anne Sexton and Sylvia Plath from a Kristevan Perspective A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Areen Ghazi Khalifeh School of Arts, Brunel University November 2010 ii Abstract A recent trend in the study of Anne Sexton and Sylvia Plath often dissociates Confessional poetry from the subject of the writer and her biography, claiming that the artist is in full control of her work and that her art does not have naïve mimetic qualities. However, this study proposes that subjective attributes, namely negativity and abjection, enable a powerful transformative dialectic. Specifically, it demonstrates that an emphasis on the subjective can help manifest the process of transgressing the law of One. The law of One asserts a patriarchal, monotheistic law as a social closed system and can be opposed to the bodily drives and its open dynamism. This project asserts that unique, creative voices are derived from that which is individual and personal and thus, readings of Confessional poetry are in fact best served by acknowledgment of the subjective. In order to stress the subject of the artist in Confessionalism, this study employed a psychoanalytical Kristevan approach. This enables consideration of the subject not only in terms of the straightforward narration of her life, but also in relation to her poetic language and the process of creativity where instinctual drives are at work. This study further applies a feminist reading to the subject‘s poetic language and its ability to transgress the law, not necessarily in the political, macrocosmic sense of the word, but rather on the microcosmic, subjective level.

  • The Betty Draper Effect
    ADVERTISEMENT Babble LIFESTYLE PARENTING FOOD BODY & MIND ENTERTAINMENT BLOGGERS The Betty Draper Effect. BY MELISSA RAYWORTH | POSTED 5 YEARS AGO Share 0 Tweet 0 Share 0 It was just before midnight on a Sunday last fall. I stood rinsing dishes, surrounded by cabinets hung when Lady Bird Johnson lived in the White House. Inside them, melamine dishes in a distinctly mid-century shade of powder blue sat stacked in perfect rows. Behind me, tucked in a thicket of cookbooks, were recipes clipped for dinner parties where the main topic of conversation was the Beatles appearing on The Ed Sullivan Show. I caught my reflection in the kitchen window, my face clearly outlined against the blackness of a suburban night. It wasn’t 1964. But here in this house, for a moment, it was hard to tell. I had spent the past hour watching Mad Men, the AMC show praised for bringing the early ADVERTISEMENT Sixties, in all their sleek but stifled glory, palpably to life. But most viewers, when they clicked off their televisions, returned seamlessly to their twenty-first-century lives. Not me. Featured Articles I’m living in a suburban split-level that has hardly changed since my in-laws built it in 1964. Now unable to manage alone, they moved to a retirement home and left most everything behind. My husband and I have become stewards of a home that is, in many ways, frozen in the Mad Men era. I fell in love with the show immediately, drawn to the way it explores the lives of women on the precipice of ’60s feminism.

  • Adam Stier, Ties That Bind.Pdf
    Ties That Bind: American Fiction and the Origins of Social Network Analysis DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Adam Charles Stier, M.A. Graduate Program in English The Ohio State University 2013 Dissertation Committee: Dr. David Herman, Advisor Dr. Brian McHale Dr. James Phelan Copyright by Adam Charles Stier 2013 Abstract Under the auspices of the digital humanities, scholars have recently raised the question of how current research on social networks might inform the study of fictional texts, even using computational methods to “quantify” the relationships among characters in a given work. However, by focusing on only the most recent developments in social network research, such criticism has so far neglected to consider how the historical development of social network analysis—a methodology that attempts to identify the rule-bound processes and structures underlying interpersonal relationships—converges with literary history. Innovated by sociologists and social psychologists of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, including Georg Simmel (chapter 1), Charles Horton Cooley (chapter 2), Jacob Moreno (chapter 3), and theorists of the “small world” phenomenon (chapter 4), social network analysis emerged concurrently with the development of American literary modernism. Over the course of four chapters, Ties That Bind demonstrates that American modernist fiction coincided with a nascent “science” of social networks, such that we can discern striking parallels between emergent network-analytic procedures and the particular configurations by which American authors of this period structured (and more generally imagined) the social worlds of their stories.
