  • Welcome to My World: Researching the Role of Personal Narrative and Affective Presence at Graceland
    Welcome to My World: Researching the Role of Personal Narrative and Affective Presence at Graceland Mariruth Leftwich Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the regulations of the Institute of Education, University of London for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Institute of Education, Faculty of Children and Learning 2012 1 Thesis Abstract This study explores the visitor experience at one of the world's most famous historic houses, Graceland, Elvis Presley's home. The research methodology prioritises the visitor's voice, examining the impact of the Graceland experience on visitor perception. Particular attention is paid to theories of personal narrative and affective presence as interpretive devices. Personal Meaning Maps from 170 visitors form the core data and provide evidence of the profound conceptual changes that occur in visitors' perceptions of Elvis. Visitors consistently describe Elvis as a 'real' person, with personal characteristics such as humility and generosity proving more memorable than his fame or career. The Graceland tour is designed for visitors to connect with Elvis in an affective manner, evoking emotions and relying on narratives of family and nostalgic discourses. This succeeds in providing visitors with an experience that challenges and extends their pre-visit views of Elvis as the 'King of Rock and Roll.' The ability to change visitor perception is linked to the quality of the experience, as Adams et al. (2003) suggests, 'the better the experience, the greater the change' (p. 22). The transformations documented at Graceland prompted investigation, searching for indicators of quality interpretation through analysis of the audio tour content and visitor photographs. This examination reveals a set of interpretive practices potentially useful for other historic properties, including the contextualising of space through personal accounts, the introduction of emotive media, and a reliance on a narrative that is personal rather than objective.

    Elvis Presley 1 Elvis Presley Elvis Presley Alias The King Nom Elvis Aaron Presley Naissance 8 janvier 1935 Tupelo, États-Unis Décès 16 août 1977 (à 42 ans) Memphis, États-Unis Profession(s) Chanteur Acteur Genre(s) Rock 'n' roll Blues Country Gospel Ballade Années actives De 1953 à 1977 Elvis Aaron Presley, surnommé « The King » (8 janvier 1935 à Tupelo, Mississippi - 16 août 1977 à Memphis, Tennessee), est un chanteur et un acteur américain. Son influence sur la culture musicale est mondiale. De son vivant, Elvis a vendu environ 700 millions de disques, a joué dans 31 films, donné 1 054 concerts aux États-Unis et trois au Canada (Vancouver, Toronto, Ottawa en 1957), et a donné 525 spectacles à Las Vegas[1] . Il a été le premier artiste à donner un concert retransmis par satellite. Le concert eut lieu le 14 janvier 1973 à Hawaï et fut regardé simultanément par un milliard de téléspectateurs dans 43 pays. Il est apparu dans sept émissions de télévision. À sa mort, sa fortune personnelle représentait 100 millions de dollars américains. Avec Michael Jackson, il est l'un des artistes solo qui a vendu le plus de disques dans le monde de son vivant. Ce phénomène a continué après sa mort car, rien que de sa disparition en 1977 jusqu'à 1980, il s'est vendu 400 millions de disques d'Elvis. Pendant ces quatre années consécutives, il a été l'artiste décédé qui a rapporté le plus d'argent. D'après le magazine américain Forbes, en 2007, Elvis arrive en tête des personnalités décédées les plus riches du monde avec 49 millions de dollars, soit 34 millions d'euros, devant John Lennon et Charles Schultz, dessinateur américain.

This dissertation would have never been produced without the repeated family viewings of The Sound of Music and The Wizard of Oz or the countless trips to the St. Louis MUNY to catch Joe Namath in Li’l Abner or Vanessa Redgrave in The King and I. My love and affection for the musical was instilled early and carried me through this project. I would also like to thank my brother Greg for his obsessive-compulsive tendencies which he channeled into various types of research assistance.
