Boicu, Filip Sebastian. "Cultural discourses in Ceauşist Romania : the hero-mirror mechanism." Thesis, University of Nottingham, 2014. http://eprints.nottingham.ac.uk/14487/.

Full text

Abstract:

This thesis is concerned with main cultural discourses of the second phase of Communism in Romania (1964-1989), period largely identical with that of Ceauşescu’s rule. A secondary aim of the thesis is to look at the post-1989 continuations of these publicly influential discourses with the aim of understanding how the educational system (HE, in particular) is positioned in relation to the cultural domain. With regard to the Communist period, the main assertion of the thesis is that analysis of these discourses reveals an underlying cultural mechanism equivalent with a central mode of governance

Abstract:

This thesis shows how heritage conservation can engage in cultural work. In the course of preserving an object, it can reveal social patterns and stimulate dialogue about representing the past. At the same time, the cultural "findings" can enter into the physical intervention of conservation. The aim is to use a more participatory process of conserving material culture that simultaneously opens up relationships between communities and objects, while enabling people to take greater control over elements of their environment. Such a practice has potential for creating culture and community in th

Abstract:

Language allows us to narrate our stories. Creating ourselves as subjects is a function of language practices mobilized in complex and contradictory negotiations of the texts we engage, in the contexts in which they appear. This qualitative, interpretive study examines how seven, grade nine, female adolescent girls engage popular culture texts and practices to constitute themselves subjectively in vocational high school. The study shows that discursive representations of gender, desire, race and class critically inform and are informed by female adolescents' negotiation of their everyday lived

Abstract:

This is a multidisciplinary and comparative study of the recurrent representations of bandits in Latin American literature from the second half of the 19th Century to the early 20th Century. After the wars of independence in the Americas, the founding of postcolonial nation-states or Creole Republics (Repúblicas Criollas) marginalized entire rural populations, composed of indigenous people but also of multiracial, mixed populations such as the gauchos, llaneros, and other people who were branded as “bandits” as they were not part of the idealized westernized nation.

Hernandez, Claudia. "The Minority Anti-Hero: Race and Behavioral Justification in Power." Scholarship @ Claremont, 2018. http://scholarship.claremont.edu/scripps_theses/1201.

Abstract:

This thesis explores the minority anti-hero on television as it relates to concepts of race and behavioral justification. Previous studies have addressed the ways in which whiteness functions advantageously for popular criminal anti-heroes on television, yet little is known regarding the effects of race for similar characters of color. I hypothesized that accessibility of the criminal stereotype does not allow men of color to inhabit the same immoral status as white characters without penalty. I subsequently analyzed the first season from the Starz series Power and conducted a textual analysis

Abstract:

The present thesis examines the way E.M. Forster, Lawrence Durrell, W.H. Auden, Stephen Spender, Joseph Brodsky, and James Merrill appropriated C.P. Cavafy in writings that were disseminated and consumed amongst culturally dominant literary circles, and which eventually determined the Greek-Alexandrian poet’s international reputation. I aim to contribute a new perspective on Cavafy, by evading the text-based tradition of reception studies, and proposing an alternative method of discussing the production of Cavafy's canonical status. Inspired by Pierre Bourdieu's sociological theory, I view lit

Abstract:

This thesis explores the trickster character through the lens of his role as a cultural hero. The two characters that I chose to examine are from North American myth, specifically Winnebago Hare and Brer Rabbit. These two characters represent the duality of the trickster while simultaneously embodying the lauded abilities of the hero. Through their actions these two characters shape culture through the very action of disrupting societal norms.

Abstract:

This thesis investigates continuities and changes in the cultural representation of the professional footballer in England, modifying one of the major existing assumptions that there was a transformation in his public persona from 'local hero' to 'national star'. It does this by establishing the context and significance of the local player in both pre- and post-war football through the analysis of empirical data, as well as proposing a non-linear model for the development of football stardom. Instead of the binary opposition of the local hero/national star trope, it argues that footballers' st

Abstract:

In the fourteenth century Jacques de Longuyon popularized the theme of the nine worthies in his poem Les Voeux du Paon. Gofrey of Bouillon, Duke of Lower Lorraine and Protector of the Holy Sepulchre, was the last of the Christian Worthies in the poem. In his life and legends he exemplified the medieval world's heroic ideal. His achievement, the recovery of the Holy City for Christianity, was the pinnacle-the crowning glory-for the western world. By examining the historical fact of Godfrey's life and comparing it to legends and artistic renderings of that life, one can learn more about the time

Abstract:

In scholarship discussing Zora Neale Hurston’s Their Eyes Were Watching God, Janie’s self-realization is central to her identity, and many scholars view and discuss her as a cultural hero. But her success is conditional on circumstance rather than composition of character, a fact this essay explores through a careful comparison between Janie and Tweet, a character from Ellen Douglas’ Can’t Quit You, Baby; specifically, while Janie ultimately succeeds in her world—even while confronting gender oppression—she improbably avoids the additional, crippling subjugation of racial prejudice that Tweet

The Munich Air Disaster claimed the lives of 23 people in a plane crash in Munich in 1958.

The players who died have continued to be extensively commemorated, especially Duncan Edwards. This research considers the commemorative activity associated with Edwards since his death and was initiated when the researcher pondered the extensive commemorative activity by strangers that she encountered at the family grave of her cousin Edwards.

Abstract:

This study analyzes the Jim Jarmusch film Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai from the perspective of cultural interaction and what it says about race relations with its presentation of a stylized version of a culturally pluralist America. Sociological theories and formal analysis were applied to examine the film’s depiction of the melting pot in American society, otherness of different ethnic groups and preservation of cultural traditions. The study suggests that though the melting pot may face problems even to the point of violence, the coexistence of different cultures within a society is an

Here, it is integrated into the curriculum of the island’s schools while providing children with a rich cultural platform that instigates linguistic and auditory experimentation.

Abstract:

Es sei „nicht ohne Pikanterie“, als Deutsche über den polnischen Nationalismus zu schreiben, bemerkt Stephanie Zloch in ihrer Monografie „Polnischer Nationalismus. Politik und Gesellschaft zwischen den beiden Weltkriegen“ (Köln-Weimar-Wien 2010: 5). Die Schweizerin Isabelle Vonlanthen wiederum stellte in einem Radiointerview vom März 2013 fest, ihr würde es leichter fallen zu diesem Thema zu forschen, da sie aus ihrer Außenposition heraus weniger auf historische Empfindlichkeiten achten müsse. In ihrer Studie „Dichten für das Vaterland“ analysiert sie national engagierte Lyrik und Publizistik

Abstract:

<p> Beneath the familiar noise of a 21<sup>st</sup> Century American popular culture enthralled with the new, the bright-and-shiny, the golden hero versus dark villain, a back-beat refrain can be heard: Where have all the grownups gone? </p><p> This dissertation searches for those adults in modern American life who have endured cycles of heroic ascent and fall, crisis and reckoning with their own unknown-wild in a process known in depth psychology as archetypal initiation. Beyond the consulting room of depth psychotherapy, the stories of public figures in the news present rich opportunity to

Abstract:

With his theories on habitus and social and cultural capital, Bourdieu posited a relationship between an individual’s social origin and their educational achievements. Therefore, this thesis uses Bourdieu’s theory of practice as a lens to understand the way discrimination, cultural identity and family and institutional supports influence the access of higher education of people from a refugee background. Facilitating the integration of refugees and asylum seekers in societies of resettlement is very important as countries are confronted with continued global refugee crises. While many people f
