Book Synopsis Lone Heroes and the Myth of the American West in Comic Books, 1945-1962 by : David Huxley
Download or read book Lone Heroes and the Myth of the American West in Comic Books, 1945-1962 written by David Huxley and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-06-29 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the role of comics in the perpetuation of the myth of the American West. In particular, it looks at the ways in which lone central characters, and their acts of violence, are posited as heroic. In doing so, the book raises questions both about the role of women in a supposedly male space, in addition to the portrayal of Native Americans within the context of this violence. Various adaptations of historical figures, such as Buffalo Bill and Billy the Kid, as well as film and television stars such as The Lone Ranger and Dale Evans are examined in detail. Although concentrating on American comics, examples both from Britain and France are also analyzed.

Book Synopsis Exploring the Collective Unconscious in the Age of Digital Media by : Schafer, Stephen Brock
Download or read book Exploring the Collective Unconscious in the Age of Digital Media written by Schafer, Stephen Brock and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2016-01-28 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For decades we have witnessed the emergence of a media age of illusion that is based on the principles of physics—the multidimensionality, immateriality, and non-locality of the unified field of energy and information—as a virtual reality. As a result, a new paradigm shift has reframed the cognitive unconscious of individuals and collectives and generated a worldview in which mediated illusion prevails. Exploring the Collective Unconscious in a Digital Age investigates the cognitive significance of an altered mediated reality that appears to have all the dimensions of a dreamscape. This book presents the idea that if the digital media-sphere proves to be structurally and functionally analogous to a dreamscape, the Collective Unconscious researched by Carl Jung and the Cognitive Unconscious researched by George Lakoff are susceptible to research according to the parameters of hard science. This pivotal research-based publication is ideally designed for use by psychologists, theorists, researchers, and graduate-level students studying human cognition and the influence of the digital media revolution.
