Intermediality, Rewriting Histories, And Identities In French Rap, Isabelle Marc Martínez
Intermediality, Rewriting Histories, And Identities In French Rap, Isabelle Marc Martínez
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In her article "Intermediality, Rewriting Histories and Identities in French Rap" Isabelle Marc Martínez analyzes aspects of French hip hop culture. As an example of resistant cultural manifestations, hip hop scenes all over the world develop strategies to subvert mainstream values and to replace them by new de-localized, contesting identities via intermedial and intertextual processes. In France during the 1990 rap was intended to reassess French national history and national self-perception. Foundational hip hop bands such as Assassin, Ministère AMER, IAM, and NTM aimed at discrediting official narratives concerning the French culture's colonial and social past. hip hop artists, who …

Towards A Multimodal Analysis Of Da Rimini's Dollspace, Maya Paniagua Zalbidea
Towards A Multimodal Analysis Of Da Rimini's Dollspace, Maya Paniagua Zalbidea
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In her article "Towards a Multimodal Analysis of da Rimini's Dollspace" Maya Zalbidea Paniagua analyzes Francesca da Rimini's Dollspace <http://dollyoko.thing.net/> (1997-2001). By analyzing Dollspace Zalbidea Paniagua reinforces the proposition that studies on material aesthetics and intermediality encompass a process of rethinking the notion of boundaries across material structures. This is clearly shown in da Rimini's Dollspace, where ambivalence cuts across discursive genres and distinct material formats of image, text, and audio. Hypertext engages the user/participant in a dialogue with the machine and, in the case of Dollspace, across people's sexual attitudes. Dollspace seeks to do more than …
Discourses And Models Of Intermediality, Jens Schröter
Discourses And Models Of Intermediality, Jens Schröter
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In his article "Discourses and Models of Intermediality" Jens Schröter discusses the question as to what relations do different discourses pose between different "media." Schröter identifies four models of discourse: 1) synthetic intermediality: a "fusion" of different media to super-media, a model with roots in the Wagnerian concept of Gesamtkunstwerk with political connotations, 2) formal (or transmedial) intermediality: a concept based on formal structures not "specific" to one medium but found in different media, 3) transformational intermediality: a model centered around the representation of one medium through another medium. Model 3) leads to the postulate that transformational intermediality is not …
(Inter)Mediality And The Study Of Literature, Werner Wolf
(Inter)Mediality And The Study Of Literature, Werner Wolf
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In his article "(Inter)mediality and the Study of Literature" Werner Wolf elaborates on the "intermedial turn" and asks whether this turn ought to be welcomed. Wolf begins with a discussion about the definitions of "medium" and "intermediality" and the impact these concepts and practices exert on scholarly, as well as student competence. He argues that despite of the fact that literary studies ought not simply turn into media or cultural studies, mediality and intermediality have become relevant issues for both teaching and the study of literature especially in the fields of comparative literature and (comparative) cultural studies. Following his postulate …
Intermediality, Architecture, And The Politics Of Urbanity, Virgilio Tortosa Garrigós
Intermediality, Architecture, And The Politics Of Urbanity, Virgilio Tortosa Garrigós
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In his article "Intermediality, Architecture, and the Politics of Urbanity" Virgilio Tortosa Garrigós discusses aspects of the exponential development of large cities, the neoliberal economy, and the "spectacle" of architecture in the context of intermediality. With the connivance between land speculators and politicians — which has led not only to the loss of spatial identity but to irreversible pollution and geographic degradation — urbanity is epitomized on the Mediterranean coast line. In reaction to this development, a series of anti-globalization organizations and social movements, rooted in urban neighbourhoods, resist the homogenization of taste with anti-billboards and anti-advertising against consumerism and …
Intermediality And Human Vs. Machine Translation, Harry J. Huang
Intermediality And Human Vs. Machine Translation, Harry J. Huang
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In his article "Intermediality and Human vs. Machine Translation" Harry J. Huang analyzes translation as a process of transferring meaning and/or information. The process and the translated text represent a new medium. When machine translation originating from human translation is integrated into the world wide web, it becomes part of global media. Accordingly, machine translation may best be studied within the context of intermediality, especially its quality vs. that of human translation. Based upon data generated from an international survey of 300 translators, writers, editors, and translation scholars, Huang analyses the participants' expectations and their acceptance of imperfection in the …

Computer Mapping Of Geography And Border Crossing In Scandinavia, Øyvind Eide
Computer Mapping Of Geography And Border Crossing In Scandinavia, Øyvind Eide
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In his article "Computer Mapping of Geography and Border Crossing in Scandinavia" Øyvind Eide discusses computer based methods for enquiry into a set of border protocols created in the mid-eighteenth century based on interviews with inhabitants of northern Scandinavia. Most of the interviews are with common people: semi-nomadic reindeer herders, fishers, and farmers of Sámi, Norwegian, Swedish, and Finnish origin. Eide discusses the value of the interview material as source material which can be used to understand the way people spoke, especially about geographical matters. The data and their analysis suggest the relevance of mediality and materiality with not only …
Dialogue Between Meaning Systems In Intermedial Texts, Cristina Peñamarín
Dialogue Between Meaning Systems In Intermedial Texts, Cristina Peñamarín
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In her article "Dialogue between Meaning Systems in Intermedial Texts" Cristina Peñamarín analyzes visual-verbal texts showing different ways of conceiving and representing the world, that in each case involves certain ways of reinforcing or challenging preconceptions about the object and ways of positioning author and addressee. Peñamarín's aim is to explore a method by which to address presupposed world visions in the texts and to ask how images and plurisemiotic texts are used to confirm, discuss, or expand the boundaries of systems of meaning. She raises the question of the possibilities of dialogue, hybridization, cultural translation, and the change …
Digital Media, 419, And The Politics Of The Global Network, Paul Benzon
Digital Media, 419, And The Politics Of The Global Network, Paul Benzon
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In his article "Digital Media, 419, and the Politics of the Global Network" Paul Benzon analyzes advance fee fraud, a scam in which con artists communicate with potential victims via email, promising them a monetary reward in return for financial assistance in extracting an allegedly astronomical (yet ultimately nonexistent) fortune from within a geographical zone often characterized as highly violent and unstable. Advance fee fraud is often referred to simply as 419, in accordance with the section of Nigerian penal code that addresses fraud. Benzon reads advance fee fraud as a practice of epistolary narrative that self-consciously allegorizes central processes …
Intermediality, Rhetoric, And Pedagogy, Kris Rutten, Ronald Soetaert
Intermediality, Rhetoric, And Pedagogy, Kris Rutten, Ronald Soetaert
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In their article "Intermediality, Rhetoric, and Pedagogy," Kris Rutten and Ronald Soetaert discuss how the notion of intermediality challenges the institutions that traditionally "mediate" culture and they discuss implications for pedagogy. First, they focus on how the museum as an institution is questioned and problematized by describing it as a "medium" that is increasingly influenced by cultural and technological developments. Second, they focus on the implications of new material culture and intermedial practice and how this requires new perspectives on pedagogy. Rutten and Soetaert elaborate on previous work on the curriculum as a "contact zone" (Pratt) by focusing on the …
Intersubjectivity And Intermediality In The Work Of Serra, Rocío Von Jungenfeld
Intersubjectivity And Intermediality In The Work Of Serra, Rocío Von Jungenfeld
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In her article "Intersubjectivity and Intermediality in the work of Serra" Rocío von Jungenfeld examines the intersubjective space in which artworks are conceived and the cross boundaries of media in order to construct a general understanding of intersubjective perception in visual and plastic arts and an understanding of the processes that determine works of art, reflective perception, and intersubjective experience. Although the argument is that perception is subjective and untransferable, (i.e., a unique personal experience) influenced by innumerable factors and bound to a specific context, there are some elements of perception which can be understood intersubjectively as they apply to …
A Case Study Of (Inter)Medial Participation, Steven Tötösy De Zepetnek
A Case Study Of (Inter)Medial Participation, Steven Tötösy De Zepetnek
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In his article "A Case Study of (Inter)medial Participation" Steven Tötösy de Zepetnek presents survey data followed by quantitative and qualitative analysis about the daily intake of media in cultural participation. The survey data of the study are the result of questionnaires conducted 2001-2002 with advanced undergraduate students enrolled in media and communication studies at Northeastern University and with advanced undergraduate and graduate students at the University of Halle-Wittenberg. As the survey was conducted in 2001-2002, the data and the analysis have "historical" relevance with regard to (inter)medial cultural participation in the digital age. The data are from a mid-size …
Video Games As Equipment For Living, Ronald Soetaert, Jeroen Bourgonjon, Kris Rutten
Video Games As Equipment For Living, Ronald Soetaert, Jeroen Bourgonjon, Kris Rutten
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In their article "Video Games as Equipment for Living" Ronald Soetaert, Jeroen Bourgonjon, and Kris Rutten postulate that with the emergence of new media there is need of a re-evaluation of all modes of communication and the ways in which literacy is conceptualized. Drawing on the concept of multi-literacy they suggest a rhetorical/ anthropological meta-perspective to describe human beings as symbol using animals and focus on particular symbol systems: narrative, drama, and video games. Specifically, they focus on the perspective of drama as a tool to analyze cultural artifacts in general and video games — as a new art form …

Blood-Speak: Ward Churchill And The Racialization Of American Indian Identity, Casey Ryan Kelly
Blood-Speak: Ward Churchill And The Racialization Of American Indian Identity, Casey Ryan Kelly
Department of Communication Studies: Faculty Publications
After publishing a controversial essay on 9/11, Professor Ward Churchill’s scholarship and personal identity were subjected to a hostile public investigation. Evidence that Churchill had invented his American Indian identity created vehemence among many professors and tribal leaders who dismissed Churchill because he was not a “real Indian.” This essay examines the discourses of racial authenticity employed to distance Churchill from tribal communities and American Indian scholarship. Responses to Churchill’s academic and ethnic self-identification have retrenched a racialized definition of tribal identity defined by a narrow concept of blood. Employing what I term blood-speak, Churchill’s opponents harness a biological concept …

A Survey Of Information Resources Required By Ulama To Perform Their Work Roles: A Case Study Of Borno State, Nigeria, Ahmed Bakeri Abu Bakar, Adam Gambo Saleh
Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)
Information behavior studies within the professional context has came a long way as a major area of study in library and information science as can be seen from the interest it generated as indicated by the large number of researches conducted, especially in the last decade. Despite the influential roles Muslim clerics (Ulama) has been playing and will continue to play especially in the Muslim world, it has been neglected in terms of its information requirement. This study surveys the resources mostly consulted by the Ulama in relation to the role to which the information is used. Five major information …

Preservation Of Cultural Heritage: The Strategic Role Of The Library And Information Science Professionals In South East Nigeria, V. O. Ekwelem, V. N. Okafor, S. C. Ukwoma
Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)
One of the primary problems confronting library profession today is lack of commitment by the available human resources, particularly, in the areas of information and communication technologies (ICTs) and preservation of resources on cultural heritage. The exploitation of knowledge as warranted by the increasing technological interventions are adding new dimension to education and thus making training an essential ingredient to most human development endeavours. This paper seeks to look at the various forms of professional training received by library and information science professionals, the available resources on cultural heritage in libraries and information centres, methods of their preservation and the …
