Its innov- atory appeal, in fact, never ignores the call of tradition, and is rooted on the main issues of American culture, from immigration and problematic assimilation to the rise of

  • Ethnicity, Lyricism, and John Berryman's Dream Songs
    Imaginary Jews and True Confessions: Ethnicity, Lyricism, and John Berryman’s Dream Songs ANDREW GROSS . Jews, who have changed much in the course of history, are certainly no race, [but] the anti‐Semites in a way are a race, because they always use the same slogans, display the same attitudes, indeed almost look alike. —Max Horkheimer1 John Berryman’s “The Imaginary Jew,” published in the Kenyon Review of 1945, is in some ways a rather programmatic account of one man’s conversion from parlor anti‐ Semitism to a feeling of solidarity with Jews. The climax occurs when a bigot accuses the narrator of being Jewish in order to discredit him in an argument over Roosevelt’s foreign policy prior to the American entry into World War II. The accusation completely unnerves the narrator in ways he does not immediately understand, and he is shocked to see that it discredits him in the eyes of the crowd, which has assembled at Union Square to hear impromptu debates. Later, after leaving the scene of his embarrassment, he decides to lay claim to this mistaken, or imaginary, identity, and comes to the following conclusion about the nature of prejudice: “My persecutors were right: I was a Jew. The imaginary Jew I was was as real as the imaginary Jew hunted down, on other nights and days, in a real Jew. Every murderer strikes the mirror, the lash of the torturer falls on the mirror and cuts the real image, and the real and the imaginary blood flow down together.”2 The story garnered some attention when it appeared in 1945.

  • COLETTE, Une Artiste En Liberté (1873-1954) Colette, À Son Époque, Est Jugée Comme Une Femme Scandaleuse
    COLETTE, une artiste en liberté (1873-1954) Colette, à son époque, est jugée comme une femme scandaleuse. Dans les « Aventures de Claudine » son héroïne, Claudine, à laquelle elle prête de nombreux traits, apparaît comme une fille délurée et insolente. Sur scène, Colette s’exhibe nue et fait scandale. Colette Ce n’est pas une agitatrice : elle n’est ni dans la revendication ni dans le militantisme. Ce n’est pas une féministe. Femme amoureuse, elle a vécu des histoires passionnelles avec les hommes comme avec les femmes. Sa maison natale 1 - Les années d’enfance Sidonie Gabrielle Colette est née dans le village de Saint- Sauveur-en-Puisaye dans l’Yonne, aux confins de la Bourgogne qu’elle célébrera dans ses livres comme dans La maison de Claudine (1922) et dans Sido (1930). Elle évoque ce village où Ses parents elle a vécu une enfance heureuse. Colette adore la nature en Bourgogne comme en Provence où elle s’achètera une maison, à Saint-Tropez avant l’invasion des touristes, et en Bretagne, à Saint-Coulomb. Ses parents sont Sidonie Landoy (1835-1912) et Jules Joseph Colette dans son jardin Colette (1829-1905). C’est un second mariage pour son père. Celui-ci est un saint-cyrien qui a perdu une jambe dans le conflit avec les Italiens. Il est percepteur. Colette, dernière enfant de la fratrie a une demi-sœur qu’elle n’apprécie guère et deux demi-frères qu’elle préfère. Sa mère appelée Sido sera l’initiatrice de Colette. Colette écrira un livre intitulé Sido (1930). Colette adolescente, n’est ni romanesque ni révoltée.

ABSTRACT The pioneers of the frontier of new art forms have always made themselves vulnerable to the criticism of the previous generation; however, this criticism often overshadows and undermines the true success of these bold artists. The confessional poets were some of these trailblazers who took American poetry into areas untouched by previous generations and were criticized for breaking with the traditional methods of past poets--especially the modernists. Poets like Robert Lowell and John Berryman used their life events as subject matter for their poetry, which the New Critics thought was bad form. This controversial shift in style won these poets the name “confessional,” a title that many of the poets to whom it refers found disparaging. The label “confessional” gives the impression that these poets did little more than use their poems as diary entries, when in fact they wrote magnificent poetry with the same talent and technical skills that the modernist poets displayed. This thesis is an examination of the confessional poets’ use of effective poetic devices favored by the modernist poets to analyze whether or not the act of removing the mask of impersonality negatively impacted the ability of the confessional poets to develop complex themes and transmute feelings to the reader.

  • Viewed One of the First “Films Parlants” in 1930 in London
    FROM GOLDEN AGE TO SILVER SCREEN: FRENCH MUSIC-HALL CINEMA FROM 1930-1950 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Rebecca H. Bias, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Judith Mayne, Advisor Professor Diane Birckbichler _________________________ Advisor Professor Charles D. Minahen Graduate Program in French and Italian Copyright by Rebecca H. Bias 2005 ABSTRACT This dissertation examines French music-hall cinema from 1930-1950. The term “music-hall cinema” applies to films that contain any or all of the following: music-hall performers, venues, mise en scène, revues, and music- hall songs or repertoire. The cinema industry in France owes a great debt to the music-hall industry, as the first short films near the turn of the century were actually shown as music-hall acts in popular halls. Nonetheless, the ultimate demise of the music hall was in part due to the growing popularity of cinema. Through close readings of individual films, the dynamics of music-hall films will be related to the relevant historical and cultural notions of the period. The music-hall motif will be examined on its own terms, but also in relation to the context or genre that underlies each particular film. The music-hall motif in films relies overwhelmingly on female performers and relevant feminist film theory of the 1970s will help support the analysis of female performance, exhibition, and relevant questions of spectatorship. Music-hall cinema is an important motif in French film, and the female performer serves as the prominent foundation in these films.
