Sham, Ku Deniece Kimberly. "Rape myth acceptance : a non-western perspective." Thesis, University of Birmingham, 2015. http://etheses.bham.ac.uk//id/eprint/6312/.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

The majority of research on rape myth acceptance (RMA) has been reported from a largely North American and European perspective. While this has certainly advanced our understanding of the area, generalising the experiences of western populations fails to take into account the sociocultural factors that are embedded in the realities of sexual violence across non-western societies. This thesis aims to examine RMA in non-western countries. Following the Introduction, a systematic review of the existing literature on the demographic and attitudinal factors associated with RMA in adults in non-west

Résumé :

La résurgence du mythe de la Frontière dans la rhétorique politique de la « guerre contre la terreur » oblige à reconsidérer l’idée de sa marginalisation dans la culture américaine depuis la crise du mythe public identifiée par Richard Slotkin à la fin des années 1960. Cette thèse en civilisation américaine et études filmiques soutient que, loin d’avoir été marginalisé, le mythe de la Frontière s’est diversifié, prolongé et consolidé dans la culture américaine. Considérant le cinéma comme le médium central d’une culture américaine mondialisée, cette étude propose une analyse sociohistorique de

Résumé :

This thesis examines the Faust myth in post-war American fiction, giving special consideration to works of William Gaddis and Thomas Pynchon. I present these works, which are underrepresented in broader studies of the literary tradition of the myth, as substantial contributions to the latter, while demonstrating how their thematic and stylistic proximity can be explained through their use of the myth itself. I thereby meet two desiderata: a location of Gaddis’s and Pynchon’s Faustiana in specific currents of twentieth-century intellectual history and a qualitative comparison between both autho

Le but principal de cette thèse est d’analyser les westerns et films partisans de notre corpus comme des récits mythiques qui véhiculent un mythe national, respectivement américain et yougoslave, et affirment ainsi la société et la nation en question. Le travail est divisé en quatre parties. La première partie étudie l’idéologie nationale et la notion de mythe national ; la deuxième est consacrée à l’analyse des oeuvres d’art en tant que récits mythiques créés autour d’une idéologie nationale, qui sert de « mythomoteur », selon l’expression d’Anthony D.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

The fundamental dichotomy between savage and civilized man is examined within the archetypal Western myth of American culture. The roots of the dichotomy are explored through images produced between 1888 and 1909 by artists Frederic Remington and Charles Russell. Four John Ford films are then used as a basis for the "dichotomous archetype" approach to understanding Western myth in film. Next, twenty-nine "historical" and "contemporary" Western movies are discussed chronologically, from The Virginian (1929) to Dances with Wolves (1990), in terms of the savage/civilized schema as it is personifi

Texte intégral

Résumé :

Cormac McCarthy’s Blood Meridian or the Evening Redness in the West is a provocative evocation of the American West that has attracted a wide range of critical responses. This study has three foci: the novel as epic myth, McCarthy’s critique of Manifest destiny, and the influence of Nietzschean philosophy on the judge and McCarthy’s portrayal of the human condition. These concerns conduce to an alternative reading of the conclusion of the novel. Blood Meridian is a unique textual enterprise as it both conforms to and subverts mythic conventions associated with both Classical epic and the Ameri

Texte intégral

Résumé :

The Western image of Turks is identified with two distinctive stereotypes: 'Terrible Turk' and 'Lustful Turk'. These stereotypical images are deeply rooted in the history of the Ottoman Empire and its encounters with Christian Europe. Because of their fear of being dominated by Islam, European Christians defined the Turks as the wicked 'Other' against their perfect 'Self'. Since the beginning of Crusades, the Western image of Turks is associated with cruelty, barbarity, murderousness, immorality, and sexual perversion. These characteristics still appear in cinematic representations of Turks. I

Résumé :

Katherine Weiss’s chapter addresses the ways both Dylan and Sam Shepard work to destabilize American myths while insisting upon the very necessity of such myths—in the form of masks, or always mutating performances. By focusing specifically on Shepard’s relationship with and effort to understand him, Weiss reveals the significance of Dylan’s protean nature (as it relates to America’s tendency to get trapped in, or to reify, its necessary myths). At the same time, she shows how Dylan and Shepard collaborated to break down outmoded myths by resurrecting, necessarily, new, albeit more temporary,

Résumé :

Annie Proulx’s three Wyoming short story collections, Close Range, Bad Dirt, and Fine Just the Way It Is, tell regional stories that push against the myths surrounding the American West. Elements of Naturalism in her work reverse the paradigm of man’s dominance over the frontier. The cyclical nature of time in her stories shows the unfulfilling nature of nostalgia. She uses folk storytelling techniques to take an insider’s perspective and to utilize the subversive nature of dark humor.

<p> Classical, scientific, and Abrahamic origin stories of knowledge establish grounds. Upon excavating these grounds, this dissertation has found repeated and entangled emphases on isolation related to a materially grounded cosmology. The core evidence for this position comes from their comparable displays of the psyche/mind/soul/spirit’s entry into and/or imprisonment within body, the symbolic restraint of Classical and Abrahamic progenitors with stone, and the initiation of philosophy—according to Aristotle—with a theory of materialism.
