  • Pumping up Masculinity: the Initial Intervention and Lasting Legacy of Hans and Franz
    Pumping Up Masculinity: The Initial Intervention and Lasting Legacy of Hans and Franz MASON ALLRED N 1988, WHEN ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER STEPPED ONTO THE STAGE of Saturday Night Live, appearing with the characters of Hans and I Franz, he brought a sense of reality and significance to the set. The normally absent butt of Kevin Nealon and Dana Carvey’s ongo- ing joke of ranting Teutonic bodybuilders was present and the work of mocking became especially potent. How Arnold was able to serve as the catalyst for such a series of skits had everything do with his imposing embodiment of several cultural images. As he brought a history of conceptions concerning Germanic masculinity together with a new admiration for bodybuilding, his iconic image in Holly- wood films manufactured an international model for men to emulate. Nealon and Carvey were then able to mock the emerging chauvinistic ideal of big man masculinity through ironic performance in their sketch comedy. Hans and Franz first appeared on the night of October 17, 1987. This was the Season 13 premiere of SNL and Hans and Franz debuted by introducing themselves as fitness trainers and explicitly stating their association with “their cousin Arnold.” Between outrageous insults (directed at the audience’s physical inferiority) and gratuitous muscle flexing, Hans and Franz made it clear that their task was to “Arnoldize” the world and to “pump [us] up!” While Arnold is obvi- ously the root of “Pumping Up with Hans and Franz,” closer analysis uncovers a layered comic effect in these skits produced within a significant cultural moment.

    BEGINNING A NOVEL by Hal E. Daniels A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of The College of Liberal Arts in Partial FulfiJlment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in Teaching Florida Atlantic University Boca Raton, Florida August 2002 Copyright by Hal E. Daniels 2002 11 BEGINNING A NOVEL by Hal E. Daniels This thesis was prepared under the direction of the candidate's thesis advisor, Dr. John Childrey, College of Liberal Arts, and has been approved by the members ofhis supervisory committee. It was submitted to the faculty of The College of Liberal Arts and was accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Teaching. SUPERVISORY COMMITTEE: T~ST J~C_ (~ Vice Provost Date lll ABSTRACT Author: Hal E. Daniels Title: Beginning a Novel Institution: Florida Atlantic University Thesis Advisor: Dr. John Childrey Degree: Master of Arts in Teaching Year: 2002 Writing a novel is a formidable task. The average 300-page novel must contain a beginning, middle and end and is comparable to the structure of the movie screenplay. The latter comprises a first act in which characters and their situation are "set up;" a second act, which reveals the conflicts of the characters; and a third act, in which the situation and conflicts are resolved. The author, a community college writing teacher, recommends that his students create vivid characters and then write an outline. The outline will serve as a roadmap, guiding the students from the beginning of their novels (the set up) to the end. Several famous authors, including Stephen King and Elmore Leonard, insist they do not use outlines.
