Book Synopsis Death on the Small Screen by : Jonathan F. Bassett
Download or read book Death on the Small Screen written by Jonathan F. Bassett and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2022-10-03 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mortality remains a taboo topic in much of Western society, but death and violence continue to be staples of popular television. We can better understand the appeal of violence by investigating psychological theories surrounding anxiety about death and the defenses we use to manage that anxiety. This book examines five recent television series--Game of Thrones,The Punisher, Jessica Jones, Sons of Anarchy and Hannibal--and shows how fictional characters' motivations teach viewers about both the constructive and destructive ways we try to deal with our own mortality. Instead of dismissing violent television as harmless entertainment or completely condemning it as a dangerous trigger of hostile behavior, this book shows its effects on viewers in a more nuanced manner. It provides a new perspective on the enjoyment of violent television, enhancing fans' appreciation and sparking ongoing discussions about their value to both the individual and society.

Book Synopsis I Sh*t My Pants Again and So Did You by : Rick Chowdry
Download or read book I Sh*t My Pants Again and So Did You written by Rick Chowdry and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2022-12-14 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world has become a very odd place to live in the last few decades, and it seems that there is incessant chaos coming at us from nearly every direction. Regardless of where we tune our televisions or our smartphones, there is no shortage of people anxious to drag us into an agreement with their opinions about all that is wrong and, by extension, how their position on a given issue is the correct one that all of us should subscribe to. Politicians, the media, the clergy, our neighbors, our friends, and our enemies all have something that needs adoption, and if we would just apologize and change our view, the world would be a better place. This book is an attempt by an average guy to cut through all of the crap that we are bombarded by to find the underlying problems that drive the chaos along with a simple solution that might change the world. The book is deliberately short, simple, and a little crude just like the human condition.
Book Synopsis Animal Stars by : Robin Ganzert, PhD,
Download or read book Animal Stars written by Robin Ganzert, PhD, and published by New World Library. This book was released on 2014-08-19 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When cameras roll and directors call, “Action,” some of the most dependable, funniest, and most enthusiastic actors stand poised on four legs, with ears alert. From Joey in War Horse to the wolves in Game of Thrones, what we see on screen is the result of meticulous preparation and professional teamwork. The eye-popping, heartwarming stories in these pages reveal the trainers, actors, directors, and, of course, dogs, cats, horses, penguins, deer, and other animals in all their behind-the-scenes glory. You’ll discover that some animal actors have diva tendencies and others have rags-to-riches backstories. American Humane Association certified animal safety representatives work carefully to ensure that no animals are harmed, as they have been doing for decades. Animal stars have done it all — convinced us to eat more tacos, broken our hearts in war dramas, inspired us with enduring love and loyalty, kept us at the edge of our seats as they snarled in the shadows, mirrored human antics to make us roar with laughter, and, like Uggie (from The Artist), stolen the show on the red carpet. Who besides a monkey named Crystal could impress a brilliant comedian like Robin Williams in Night at the Museum? And animal stars will work for food, including only KFC original recipe for Casey the bear — no other fried chicken will do! These charming and sometimes hilarious stories will give you a new appreciation for the skill and patience it takes to teach nonhuman actors to perform on camera. Training tips from the pros and personal recollections of celebrities such as Julia Roberts, Hailee Steinfeld, and Steven Spielberg make this insider’s look at the lives and work of these incomparable stars as irresistible as the animals themselves. A portion of the publisher’s proceeds from this book will aid American Humane Association.
Book Synopsis Not Always Serious by : Denis Liljedahl
Download or read book Not Always Serious written by Denis Liljedahl and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2012-01-04 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection or compilation of poems and short stories that I mostly made up over many years, usually when Ive been drinking. That should answer many of the questions about the content of some of the material contained within. My wife thinks Im goofy and is amazed that any publishing company would even consider wasting the soy ink to print it, I am too. Im a midwest guy (Twin Cities) only because my great grandparents thought that this area reminded them of home, stupid Swedes and Germans. To me, that wouldve been a good reason to keep moving on. Maybe to the West coast, Colorado, Northern Arizona, or Utah. Furthermore, Ive never tried lutefisk and I dont like headcheese. I do, however, like sauerkraut and pork chops with garlic mashed potatoes and rutabagas. I retired from the USPS and left my disgruntled ways and a few mangled bodies behind me. For that reason I decided against having a picture of me on this back cover. I shouldve used an alias, dammit!

Book Synopsis Folk Culture in the Digital Age by : Trevor J. Blank
Download or read book Folk Culture in the Digital Age written by Trevor J. Blank and published by University Press of Colorado. This book was released on 2012-11-16 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Smart phones, tablets, Facebook, Twitter, and wireless Internet connections are the latest technologies to have become entrenched in our culture. Although traditionalists have argued that computer-mediated communication and cyberspace are incongruent with the study of folklore, Trevor J. Blank sees the digital world as fully capable of generating, transmitting, performing, and archiving vernacular culture. Folklore in the Digital Age documents the emergent cultural scenes and expressive folkloric communications made possible by digital “new media” technologies. New media is changing the ways in which people learn, share, participate, and engage with others as they adopt technologies to complement and supplement traditional means of vernacular expression. But behavioral and structural overlap in many folkloric forms exists between on- and offline, and emerging patterns in digital rhetoric mimic the dynamics of previously documented folkloric forms, invoking familiar social or behavior customs, linguistic inflections, and symbolic gestures. Folklore in the Digital Age provides insights and perspectives on the myriad ways in which folk culture manifests in the digital age and contributes to our greater understanding of vernacular expression in our ever-changing technological world.

Book Synopsis Routledge Handbook of Ecocriticism and Environmental Communication by : Scott Slovic
Download or read book Routledge Handbook of Ecocriticism and Environmental Communication written by Scott Slovic and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-02-01 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ecocriticism and environmental communication studies have for many years co-existed as parallel disciplines, occasionally crossing paths but typically operating in separate academic spheres. These fields are now rapidly converging, and this handbook aims to reinforce the common concerns and methodologies of the sibling disciplines. The Routledge Handbook of Ecocriticism and Environmental Communication charts the history of the relationship between ecocriticism and environmental communication studies, while also highlighting key new paradigms in information studies, diverse examples of practical applications of environmental communication and textual analysis, and the patterns and challenges of environmental communication in non-Western societies. Contributors to this book include literary, film and religious studies scholars, communication studies specialists, environmental historians, practicing journalists, art critics, linguists, ethnographers, sociologists, literary theorists, and others, but all focus their discussions on key issues in textual representations of human–nature relationships and on the challenges and possibilities of environmental communication. The handbook is designed to map existing trends in both ecocriticism and environmental communication and to predict future directions. This handbook will be an essential reference for teachers, students, and practitioners of environmental literature, film, journalism, communication, and rhetoric, and well as the broader meta-discipline of environmental humanities.
