It tries to discuss the dramatic climate in England in the aftermath of the Second World War, with special concentration on the factors influencing upon and leading to the emergence of the new English drama in the late fifties. The chapter deals with a brief analysis of the “Angry Young Men Movement” and the rebel or outsider figure in post-war English literature in terms of studying the different theories concerning his origin characteristics and the various causes motivating him to rebellion. The study attempts to investigate the rebel hero in Osborne's plays Look Back in Anger (1956), The Entertainer (1957), and Luther (1961) respectively The subject is pursued by investigating the various social, political, economic, and psychological causes inducing the main character in these texts to adopt a rebellious stance, the targets as well as the alternatives which Osborne's rebel sees as possible solutions to his problems.

  • The Narrative Functions of Props Portable Communication Devices in Die Hard (1988) & Die Hard 2: Die Harder (1990)
    Lund University Rasmus Mathias Carlsson Centre for Languages and Literature FIMT08, Spring 2018 Master Program in Film- and Media History Master’s Thesis Supervisor: Assoc. Prof. Marie Cronqvist Seminar Date: 30-05-2018 The narrative functions of props Portable communication devices in Die Hard (1988) & Die Hard 2: Die Harder (1990) Abstract The current study set out to investigate the narrative functions of prop’s that takes the particular form of portable communication devices (more specifically walkie-talkies and airplane phones) in Die Hard (1988) and Die Hard 2: Die Harder (1990). The methodology used was the semiotic concepts of denotation and connotation with a supporting theoretical framework that consisted of two principal forms of prop’s called Instrumental and Contextualized together with Antoni Smuszkiewiez’ definition of the concept. It was found that the narrative functions of the walkie-talkies shift and change throughout each film. They entail the possibility of creating and influencing certain narrative contexts; at one moment, the walkie-talkie has the function of providing the spectator with important narrative information required in order to understand the wholeness of the narrative; in another instance, it rather functions as the main narrative instrument which enables, generates and initiates narrative contexts that are contingent on it (and the airplane phone). It was also corroborated that the level of narrative suspense, motion and pace differs depending on whether the protagonist has access to a walkie-talkie or not. The airplane phone in Die Harder was determined to have a similar narrative function as the walkie-talkies do. Yet, the difference is that it isn’t used by either the protagonist or the antagonist of the narrative.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This dissertation was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. ■| ne TcUowing explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image, ^ou will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

    Neil Hollands. Adaptation of Novels into Film—a Comprehensive New Framework for Media Consumers and Those Who Serve Them. A Master's paper for the M.S. in L.S. degree. April, 2002. 75 pages. Advisor: David W. Carr This study tests the correlation of consumer reviews of novels and the films adapted from them to determine whether the rating of one media form can predict the rating of its partner film or novel. A data set of 1470 movie adaptations released between 1981 and 2000, and the novels from which they came is utilized, employing information from the Internet Movie Database and Amazon. The study finds a significant correlation between the two ratings, but a limited ability of that correlation to explain the full difference between the scores. Analysis of results defines a framework of 14 personal, creative, formal, and environmental differences between novel and film, and three key commonalities: narrative core, symbiotic effect, and comparative act. Related actions and recommendations for further research, particularly for librarians, are suggested.
