From The Top Rope: Melodrama, Ritual, And Gender In Lucha Libre, Rebecca Wickham
From The Top Rope: Melodrama, Ritual, And Gender In Lucha Libre, Rebecca Wickham
Theses & ETDs
This exploration takes on Mexican professional wrestling, or lucha libre as a distinct form of wrestling expressed through its spectacle’s continuity of aesthetic, balletic maneuvers, and attached iconography. Beginning with an analysis of the melodrama and fiction on the creation of lucha libre, the study navigates through the development of lucha libre in connection to fictional expectations of melodrama, its ritual aspects both inside and outside of the ring, and its gendered components within the films created. Drawing on the works of Peter Brooks, Roland Barthes, Catherine Bell, and Heather Levi, I examine how certain aspects of the sport can …

Pandemic Pathways: An Integrated Approach To Studying The Pandemic’S Employment Impacts On Paid And Unpaid Care Of Children 0 To 11 Years Old, Johanna S. Quinn
Pandemic Pathways: An Integrated Approach To Studying The Pandemic’S Employment Impacts On Paid And Unpaid Care Of Children 0 To 11 Years Old, Johanna S. Quinn
Sociology Faculty Publications
The pandemic adversely affected the employment of child caregivers, exacerbating already existing inequalities. The authors offer an integrated framework that considers the interdependencies between unpaid and paid child caregiving and the construction of the childcare sector as a devalued and fractionalized group. The authors outline the prepandemic positioning of mothers, childcare teachers, preschool teachers, and primary school teachers. Then, using cross-sectional and panel data from the Current Population Survey, the authors describe how the pandemic affected these four groups of child caregivers’ employment between January 2018 and December 2022. Black, Brown, and non-college-educated mothers were hit particularly hard during the …

Behind The Fishnets: An Introduction To The Making Of The Rocky Horror Documentary, Chloe Rusek
Theses & ETDs
“Rocky Horror: Behind the Fishnetsis” is an ethnographic-style documentary that delves into the vibrant world of a student-led production of the iconic musical at New College. Through intimate interviews and immersive footage, the film captures the dynamic interactions between the cast and crew as they navigate rehearsals, challenges, and personal revelations. It explores how the production catalyzes self-discovery, empowerment and forging deep connections within the community. By observing the performers on stage and immersing myself in the environment as the creator, the documentary sheds light on the transformative power of theatrical expression in shaping individual identities and fostering a sense …
The Examination Of The Forbidden Fruit, Dominique Ryder
The Examination Of The Forbidden Fruit, Dominique Ryder
Undergraduate Research Posters 2024
The dominant subculture in each region significantly influences long-term behavioral changes. Strict social norms can result in deeply internalized punishment. Since enculturation and acculturation play a significant role in shaping established and accepted social norms, a complex interplay of sociocultural phenomena can be held accountable. Anthropology, sociology, and religious studies provide an interdisciplinary framework that can help explain how religion influences systemic discrimination. This study utilized interview techniques, short-term ethnography, and grounded theory methodology to collect data for an innovative framework and form a coherent theory to support this framework. The study focused on transgender and non-binary individuals in Northeast …

Rapid urbanization has resulted in a significant increase in the amount of waste generated, which threatens the health and safety of millions of people worldwide. For our cities to become environmentally sustainable, proper waste management has become essential. A major source of pollution resulting from improper waste management are developing countries, such as the Philippines which is a top contributor to plastic wastes in oceans. Existing studies in this context focus on the effectiveness of specific waste management programs, and there is an opportunity to extend theories to improve our understanding of the waste management behaviors of households. Using an …

Dignity Deferred: Supriyo V. Union Of India And Lgbtq Rights, Ryan Thoreson
Dignity Deferred: Supriyo V. Union Of India And Lgbtq Rights, Ryan Thoreson
Faculty Articles and Other Publications
In Supriyo v. Union of India, a five-judge bench of the Supreme Court declined to find that same-sex couples have a right to marry under India’s Constitution. The various opinions in the case repeatedly recognised and affirmed the dignity of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) people, but ultimately found that exclusion from civil marriage did not run afoul of constitutional guarantees. In this Essay, I examine the limited understanding of dignity employed by the bench in Supriyo, juxtaposing this with both domestic and comparative LGBTQ rights decisions that embraced a more substantive understanding of dignity. I argue that …
Emotional State Of Small Animal Veterinarians And Euthanasia: A Global Approach, Cyriac Versini
Emotional State Of Small Animal Veterinarians And Euthanasia: A Global Approach, Cyriac Versini
Theses & ETDs
Euthanasia is a very common practice in veterinary medicine, encountered by small animals veterinarians in their everyday practice as the number of companion animals have exponentially increased these last decades reflecting the societal changes from a rural multigenerational family unit to a urban nuclear model, including companion animals, considered henceforth as family members. Although common, euthanasia does not come without consequences on the emotional state of the veterinarians practitioners worldwide. To fully apprehend its effects, euthanasia has to be understood from a global approach, including ethics, legality and psychology. Euthanasia appears as an ethical challenge for veterinarians, not only because …
A Tight-Knit Community: An Ethnographic Study Of The Social Knitters Of Sarasota, Janie Day
A Tight-Knit Community: An Ethnographic Study Of The Social Knitters Of Sarasota, Janie Day
Theses & ETDs
This thesis presents a multifaceted exploration of those who knit with others and form communities through the knitting hobby. Utilizing ethnographic research from three interconnected knitting groups in Sarasota, Florida, interviews with six knitters, as well as the existing literature on knitting, I look into three major themes. First, I explore the implications surrounding the evolving identity of those who knit through the concepts of “old knitting” and “new knitting” and focus on how the knitters I spoke with perceive their own identity as a knitter. I also write about knitting’s previous confinement to the home and its recent transition …
Bombazos Y Belonging: Exploring Belonging And Connection Between Latine Students Through Dance At A Pwi, Gabriella Batista Quintana
Bombazos Y Belonging: Exploring Belonging And Connection Between Latine Students Through Dance At A Pwi, Gabriella Batista Quintana
Theses & ETDs
By utilizing dance and performance ethnography in tandem with the practice of bomba (an Afro-Puerto Rican dance, genre, and drum), this thesis seeks to understand the themes of belonging and connection amongst Latine students at New College of Florida, a predominately White institution (PWI). How may dance act as a safe space, or counterspace, for students of marginalized identities to foster a sense of belonging? Can connecting to one another, despite our cultural differences within the Latine diaspora, lend itself to finding “home” in an otherwise hostile PWI? According to this study’s participants, finding familiar aspects of one’s culture amongst …
Birthmarks: Exploring Cultural Connections In Adult Asian American Adoptees, Celeste Kadzis
Birthmarks: Exploring Cultural Connections In Adult Asian American Adoptees, Celeste Kadzis
Theses & ETDs
The purpose of this thesis is to explore how transracial Asian American adoptees relate to their cultural heritage. To understand this I ask: 1) What are the different perspectives that adoptees choose to culturally reconnect to their cultural heritage? 2) What are the reasons why they might choose to or not choose to connect to their heritage? 3) How do adoptees wrestle with and reflect on their upbringing, transition into adulthood, and respond to current events? 4) How can public awareness of cultural diversity within the Asian American adoptee experience be increased? To answer these questions, I conducted ethnographic research …
Prima Donna: Understanding Women In Opera And The Issues Of Representation And Power, Mia Ludden
Prima Donna: Understanding Women In Opera And The Issues Of Representation And Power, Mia Ludden
Theses & ETDs
Often characterized by dramatic singing and intense costumes, opera expands beyond popular culture's misrepresentation. With its history tracing back to early theater and developing as time progressed, opera has a complicated past with women. This thesis attempts to explore women’s roles in opera and issues of representation and power. This research is accompanied by my ethnographic research at the Sarasota Opera. I have spent considerable time observing and interviewing people at the opera in the context of this thesis. The ethnography also fills the gaps where academic research is limited. I examine history’s commentary on women through opera, the representation …
Cracked Reality: The Theater Of Chaos And Accessibility In Academia: Building A More Inclusive And Less Intimidating Environment, Remy Katz
Theses & ETDs
Absurdist humor and horror is the only way to survive in the nonsensical world. Situational comedy, irony, and the macabre; this is the essence of the world of spontaneity. My work is fueled by the need to provoke unsettling emotions, leaving audiences to sit and digest feelings of discomfort and joy in the catharsis of humor. I mean, what’s more funny than watching someone have a mental breakdown? Like, come on, you’re not special, all of us are freaks. SO, I’m a bit of a freak. I like building on ideas as I produce art, feeding my emotions into all …

The Next Generation Of Blue: Health And Autonomy Of Young Adults In A Blue Zone Region, Isadora Vitkus
Theses & ETDs
This thesis focuses on young adult perspectives amidst the data of successful aging and longevity of nonagenarians and centenarians in the world’s five Blue Zones. With lacking data on how the Blue Zone Power 9 principles are affecting young adult lives in Blue Zone regions, this thesis assessed the presence of and usage of the Power 9 principles in the studied young adult population. Chronic disease is also on the rise in several countries, and the imminent threat of disease for many young adults is overbearing. The stress that this worry brings can often lead to heightened cortisol levels in …
Home On The Grange: Ethnobotanical Entrevues In Outaouais, Michael Bolesh
Home On The Grange: Ethnobotanical Entrevues In Outaouais, Michael Bolesh
Theses & ETDs
This thesis is based on two months of ethnographic research on a farm/apothecary homestead in Outaouais, Québec. There I strived to unearth the approaches both botanical and market employed by Twin Lakes Apothecary to better understand and contextualize the contemporary manifestations of ethnobotany in Québec. I pursued this primarily through a participant-observer approach in which I opportunistically followed networks of exchange and information to gradually traverse the life history of products and people at the apothecary. In examining the apothecary through such a lens, I illuminate the mythos and notions of production and validity in sectors often described as organic, …

Where's The Water? Indigenous Sovereignty And Co-Management In The Everglades, Colin Jefferis
Theses & ETDs
This thesis looks at the degradation and restoration of the Everglades ecosystem, through the framework of settler colonialism. The Everglades region has a unique settler colonial structure, known as the South Florida Water Management District, which controls water resources and the livelihood of indigenous people in the Everglades. The settler colonial structure has created water quantity conflict between the stakeholders in the Everglades, revolving around the closing of flood gates to protect the Cape Sable Seaside Sparrow, as water quality conflicts revolving around agricultural pollutants in the Everglades, in the present day. This thesis attempts to address these issues of …
