Cathodisms, Stéphane Spoiden

Studies in 20th & 21st Century Literature

"That's Just The Way We Like It": The Children's Horror Film In The 1980'S, Christina Mitchell Bentley Jan 2002

"That's Just The Way We Like It": The Children's Horror Film In The 1980'S, Christina Mitchell Bentley

University of Kentucky Master's Theses

The decade of the 1980s has often been considered a reactionary artistic wasteland in film studies, but it was nonetheless a period of volatile changes for the film industry. This period saw the decline of the mainstream horror film and the rise of the family film, two currents that reflect and illuminate the enormous changes in film production, marketing, and distribution. The hybrid genre of the childrens horror film, born in the 1980s, is particularly apt for discussing both the industry changes in this period and childrens relationship as viewers to the medium of film. The thesis defines the childrens …

The Dynamics Of Memory: Geography And Language In John Phillip Santos's And Ilan Stavans's Memoirs, Lucia M. Suarez

Lucía M. Suárez

The memoir is a creative space of reflection that superimposes personal memory upon historical and national remembering. It is a literary genre that forces us to meditate on the function of amnesia and remembrance in the way we construct the narratives of our lives. An increasing number of Latino/a memoirs call our attention to the growing and vastly diverse Latin American communities in the United States. In particular, two recent memoirs by Latino writers, John Phillip Santos and Ilan Stavans, reveal how culture, religion, and society shape memory. Santos's Places Left Unfinished at the Time of Creation (1999) seeks memory through …
