Cultural Geography: Local News Fosters Audience Attachment To Spaces And Places In The Digital Era, Christina C. Smith Jan 2020

Cultural Geography: Local News Fosters Audience Attachment To Spaces And Places In The Digital Era, Christina C. Smith

Faculty and Staff Works

Despite the endless struggles, including circulation and revenue declines and increasing digital competition, that larger daily print newspapers have been battling for years, geographicallybounded, small-town weekly print newspapers across the United States continuously remain vital to their communities in the digital age because they remain faithful to their fundamental function as providers of reliable and relevant news to their audiences. This essay explores why these media remain relevant to their audiences in a global society. Ultimately, the researcher suggests geographically-bounded U.S. weekly print newspapers aren’t facing the same struggles as their larger brethren, the daily newspapers, and audiences across the …

Memento Mori: Victorian Death Culture Through Murder, Morbidity, And Mourning, Jemma M. Kloss Apr 2019

Memento Mori: Victorian Death Culture Through Murder, Morbidity, And Mourning, Jemma M. Kloss

History Honors Projects

Death loomed large in Victorian London. Murder dominated not only headlines but also popular media such as fiction and theater, as London grappled with regular outbreaks of disease, and personal mourning turned into a show of fashion and wealth. Where did this preoccupation with death come from, and what can it tell us about Victorian society as a whole? While these specific changes resulted from cultural accumulations, many of them stemmed from how London itself grew during this period. The industrialization, urbanization, and overall development of London into a thriving metropolis changed the ways its citizens interacted with death.

Examination of the narratives utilized by Hartford Courant and San Francisco Chronicle journalists demonstrates the widespread use of depictions of criminal transgressors as possessing an inherent moral corruption. This study facilitates a more nuanced understanding …

The Progress Of Anomie In Australia Between 2001 And 2011, Sharan Kraemer Jan 2017

The Progress Of Anomie In Australia Between 2001 And 2011, Sharan Kraemer

Theses: Doctorates and Masters

The fundamental social structures of Australia and the Western world in the modern era differ greatly from those of fin de siècle France and the post-Depression industrialised West; yet, similar individual human responses to stressors remain. The sociological insights of Émile Durkheim and Robert Merton presented in their theories of Anomie and Strain provide a guide to understanding this. The present research considered the confluence of pressures that flowed from the changes to social structures in Australia after the attacks of September 11th, 2001, in an environment in which people felt increasingly unsettled and insecure. It positioned the changes within …
