“Did I Step On Your Moment?”: The Objectification Of The Marvel Cinematic Universe’S Black Widow, Bryanna Martinez Jan 2021

“Did I Step On Your Moment?”: The Objectification Of The Marvel Cinematic Universe’S Black Widow, Bryanna Martinez

Regis University Student Publications (comprehensive collection)

The objectification of the Marvel Cinematic Universe character Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow has been present through the films she has been in. She is merely a sex symbol and seen as just the pretty face, when she leads the Avengers by combat fighting, espionage tactics, and hacking into computers. By employing film theorist Laura Mulvey’s the Male Gaze Theory, Hugo Ingrasci’s theory of the antihero trope, Historian Barbara Hales’ Theory of the femme fatale in film noir, author Michael Manahan’s concepts of the antihero and societal implications, and Director Joey Soloway’s notion of the Female Gaze theory we are to examine …

Imaginary Things, Heather Gardewine Jan 2021

Imaginary Things, Heather Gardewine

Masters Theses

Imaginary Things is a coming-of-age memoir about growing apart from one’s family and struggling with identity and independence. This story draws from predecessors in the family dysfunction subgenre of memoir, such as Educated by Tara Westover, The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls, and Running with Scissors by Augusten Burroughs. The narrator tries to find her own identity in the things she loves while navigating familial opposition and rejection. “Imaginary things” such as films, plays, and video games become markers of identity and guide the reader through the story and towards growth, resolution, and sense of self.

Els Tristos Tròpics De Joan Bordoy, Emigrant A Amèrica I Terrorista Accidental, Antoni Pizà Jan 2021

Els Tristos Tròpics De Joan Bordoy, Emigrant A Amèrica I Terrorista Accidental, Antoni Pizà

Publications and Research

El 7 de novembre del 1933, Joan Bordoy va intentar cometre el que seria el darrer acte d’heroïcitat en la seva peripatètica vida. Aprofitant l’entusiasme d’una insurrecció popular a l’Havana, va unir-se a un grup de revolucionaris del grup ABC, considerats per alguns com a terroristes, per assaltar i ocupar la Jefatura de Policía de l’Havana. Si bé, l’atac en principi va tenir èxit, en qüestió d’una hora els militars van recuperar la caserna.


Imagining An Asian American Superhero Of North Korean Origin: A Design Fiction, Seo-Young J. Chu Jan 2021

Imagining An Asian American Superhero Of North Korean Origin: A Design Fiction, Seo-Young J. Chu

Publications and Research

My talk, a thought-experimental blend of literary criticism and speculative "design fiction," will introduce you to an Asian American superhero of North Korean origin. In this science-fictional superhero, whom I have tentatively named "구름"/"☁️"/"Ku-reum," Korea's elusive realities coalesce into legible form. More specifically, they become available for narrative experience and relatable to us as an anthropomorphic character, a person with whom we might identify, come face-to-face, sympathize, interact dynamically, and have a conversation. Ku-reum is designed to reflect Korea's complex past and hopes for the future. Existing beyond division systems, Ku-reum uses the non-binary pronouns "one"/"they." Neither "South" nor "North," …

Front Pew Reflections: Redefining The Role Of Women And Solid Theology In The Church, Yanna Telyeten Jan 2021

Front Pew Reflections: Redefining The Role Of Women And Solid Theology In The Church, Yanna Telyeten

Williams Honors College, Honors Research Projects

If we are honest, the modern Evangelical Church has struggled to find a clear answer on what the Bible says about the role of women. This ambiguity often causes women of faith to be confused or uncertain about their value, role, and function in the church. In Front Pew Reflections: Redefining the Role of Women and Solid Theology in the Church, I tell of my personal experiences and struggles as a young woman of faith growing up in the Slavic church. In this reflective piece, I share the discoveries I have made about what the Bible says about the …
