Abstract:
This study analyzes the evolution of how the male gender is portrayed in five Academy Award winning animated films, starting in the year 2002 when the category was created. Because there have been seventeen award winning films in the animated film category, and there is a limitation regarding the scope for this paper, the winner from every fourth year have been analyzed; resulting in five films. These films are: Shrek (2001), Wallace and Gromit (2005), Up (2009), Frozen (2013) and Coco (2017).

The idea of what is suitable for children depends on the understandings and expectations of what childhood is and should contain. While "suitable" films have been praised for their obvious pedagogic function, "non-suitable" films (such as popular and violent films) have also managed to emerge into the film pedagogic context with varying arguments, e.g. that film education should reflect the reality of the youth or that children will see the films anyway and need guidance.     This thesis explores a contemporary Swedish example of a contested children's film that was produced for school cinema

Instead, by drawing on theorists like Lefebvre and Furstenau (2002), this investigation asserts that belief in fictional realism is paramount to spectatorship. It is sho

In the public consumption of film adaptations of popular children’s literature, which is, particularly in relation to the popular press, influenced by the marketing communications of the filmmaking team, the discursive negotiation of author and audience constructs is pivotal in the endeavor to side-step or manage the seemingly unavoidable discourses of fidelity. In this, child audiences are imagined and constructed in a variety of ways; however, these constructions generally have very little to do with actual children and much more to do with how the filmmakers wish/need to manage and negotiat

However, evidence shows that children’s viewership and enjoyment of horror films dates to least as early as the 1930s, while violent imagery has been used as a pedagogical tool in fairy tales, cautionary tales and other children’s stories for centuries.

Children's animated films have held a lasting influence on their audiences since the rise of their popularity in the 1980s.

The results show that children's animated films from 2002-2013 are riddled with many instances of adult humor while earlier films from 1982-1993 use adult humor sparingly.

Abstract:
Syftet med detta arbete är att genom boken och filmen Kalle och chokladfabriken, beskriva hur Willy Wonka framställs, och hur han kan relateras till Dahls liv. Vi undersöker även vilka normsystem som blir framträdande i båda medierna samt hur Oompa-Loompiernas låtar ändrar form och hur olika aspekter beskrivs. En norm är något som definieras enligt följande: ”[…] ett normsystem anger det normala mönster som individers handlingar bör överensstämma med” (Bergström, 1990). Genom de olika medierna vi analyserat har vi kommit fram till att det finns många aspekter som omarbetats vid filmatiseringen

Abstract:
The aim of the present study is to investigate the linguistic competence of 23 Italian-speaking children aged between 3;6 and 6;5 when it comes to passive sentences, with special attention to the adjectival and verbal interpretation of passive. For this purpose, a linguistic test in Catalan (Gavarró & Parramon 2017) has been adapted to Italian, thus providing a further tool to test young children’s linguistic competence. A particular focus will be devoted to the Italian auxiliaries essere and venire, which are used in passive constructions. Since the auxiliary venire only allows an eventive pa

Abstract:
Thesis advisor: Lisa Cuklanz<br>For my Communication Honors Program thesis for Boston College, I plan to analyze gender roles and how gender is constructed in recent children’s films produced by Disney. Since the Disney Corporation is so prominent in today’s culture and thus influential to its audience, this topic of study is very important. It impacts many people including its main target audience—children. Existing research proves that children develop their gender schemata early in life. Furthermore, the media they interact with influences children and their concepts of gender. Therefore, t

Abstract:
Through the study of OK KO! Let’s Be Heroes! and The Amazing World of Gumball, I argue that children’s cartoons represent and recreate anxieties toward money’s plasticity in the plasticity of the cartoon bodies and worlds. I closely examine the ambivalence towards abstraction’s plasticity in contemporary children’s cartoons to trace the neoliberal ambivalence towards money’s plasticity. While much scholarship has grappled with what can be understood as animatic plasticity, very little of it takes on the questions raised about neoliberal culture by televised children’s cartoons. Cartoons are im

Master of Science<br>Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering<br>Steven Warren<br>Polysomnography is a method to obtain physiological signals from individuals with potential sleep disorders. Such physiological data, when acquired from children with autism spectrum disorders, could allow caregivers and child psychologists to identify sleep disorders and other indicators of nighttime well-being that affect their quality of life and ability to learn. Unfortunately, traditional polysomnography is not well suited for children with autism spectrum disorder because they commonly ha

L’objet d’étude de cette thèse de doctorat est la traduction audiovisuelle et concerne plus particulièrement la réception du doublage par le destinataire « spécial » du corpus analysé, l’enfant. Le sous-titre du travail –une étude sur la réception– révèle son caractère empirique et expérimental, dont l’objectif principal est d’analyser empiriquement la réaction du jeune public face à des solutions de traduction qui viennent régulièrement adoptées dans les doublages du cinéma d’animation. L’utilisation de certaines stratégies et techniques de traduction peuvent se rapprocher ou s’éloigner du ré
