Download or read book The Essential Cult TV Reader written by David Lavery and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2021-09-15 with total page 507 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Essential Cult TV Reader is a collection of insightful essays that examine television shows that amass engaged, active fan bases by employing an imaginative approach to programming. Once defined by limited viewership, cult TV has developed its own identity, with some shows gaining large, mainstream audiences. By exploring the defining characteristics of cult TV, The Essential Cult TV Reader traces the development of this once obscure form and explains how cult TV achieved its current status as legitimate television. The essays explore a wide range of cult programs, from early shows such as Star Trek, The Avengers, Dark Shadows, and The Twilight Zone to popular contemporary shows such as Lost, Dexter, and 24, addressing the cultural context that allowed the development of the phenomenon. The contributors investigate the obligations of cult series to their fans, the relationship of camp and cult, the effects of DVD releases and the Internet, and the globalization of cult TV. The Essential Cult TV Reader answers many of the questions surrounding the form while revealing emerging debates on its future.

Download or read book The Home Front in Britain written by Maggie Andrews and published by Palgrave Macmillan. This book was released on 2014-10-30 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of fourteen, academically rigorous and accessible chapters explores the British Home Front in the last 100 years since the outbreak of WW1. The wide range of case studies include war widows allowances, Landgirls, the role of factory inspectors in WW1 and canal boat women, national savings, Guernsey evacuees and clothes rationing in WW2. The meaning and images of the British home and family in times of war are interrogated in the past and in contemporary culture to challenge prevalent myths of how working and domestic life shifted in times of national conflict. This volume is intended to encourage a reappraisal of the place of the Home Front in British conceptualisations of war and conflict.

Download or read book Astrology and Cosmology in the World’s Religions written by Nicholas Campion and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2012-06-11 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When you think of astrology, you may think of the horoscope section in your local paper, or of Nancy Reagan's consultations with an astrologer in the White House in the 1980s. Yet almost every religion uses some form of astrology: some way of thinking about the sun, moon, stars, and planets and how they hold significance for human lives on earth. Astrology and Cosmology in the World’s Religions offers an accessible overview of the astrologies of the world's religions, placing them into context within theories of how the wider universe came into being and operates. Campion traces beliefs about the heavens among peoples ranging from ancient Egypt and China, to Australia and Polynesia, and India and the Islamic world. Addressing each religion in a separate chapter, Campion outlines how, by observing the celestial bodies, people have engaged with the divine, managed the future, and attempted to understand events here on earth. This fascinating text offers a unique way to delve into comparative religions and will also appeal to those intrigued by New Age topics.

Download or read book Scotland and the Caribbean, c.1740-1833 written by Michael Morris and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-03-12 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book participates in the modern recovery of the memory of the long-forgotten relationship between Scotland and the Caribbean. Drawing on theoretical paradigms of world literature and transnationalism, it argues that Caribbean slavery profoundly shaped Scotland’s economic, social and cultural development, and draws out the implications for current debates on Scotland’s national narratives of identity. Eighteenth- to nineteenth-century Scottish writers are re-examined in this new light. Morris explores the ways that discourses of "improvement" in both Scotland and the Caribbean are mediated by the modes of pastoral and georgic which struggle to explain and contain the labour conditions of agricultural labourers, both free and enslaved. The ambivalent relationship of Scottish writers, including Robert Burns, to questions around abolition allows fresh perspectives on the era. Furthermore, Morris considers the origins of a hybrid Scottish-Creole identity through two nineteenth-century figures - Robert Wedderburn and Mary Seacole. The final chapter moves forward to consider the implications for post-devolution (post-referendum) Scotland. Underpinning this investigation is the conviction that collective memory is a key feature which shapes behaviour and beliefs in the present; the recovery of the memory of slavery is performed here in the interests of social justice in the present.

Download or read book Cult Television written by Sara Gwenllian-Jones and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A television series is tagged with the label "cult" by the media, advertisers, and network executives when it is considered edgy or offbeat, when it appeals to nostalgia, or when it is considered emblematic of a particular subculture. By these criteria, almost any series could be described as cult. Yet certain programs exert an uncanny power over their fans, encouraging them to immerse themselves within a fictional world. In Cult Television leading scholars examine such shows as The X-Files; The Avengers; Doctor Who, Babylon Five; Star Trek; Xena, Warrior Princess; and Buffy the Vampire Slayer to determine the defining characteristics of cult television and map the contours of this phenomenon within the larger scope of popular culture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although several of Robert Louis Stevenson's major works -- Treasure Island, Kidnapped, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde -- have been enshrined in the Western canon of popular literature, these novels represent only a fraction of a prodigious body of writing that spans virtually every genre. Stevenson was a prolific and preternaturally skilled writer, and in these essays, he offers insight, tips, and inspiration that will capture the imagination of both fans of his work and would-be writers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Surgeon's Log: Being Impressions of the Far East IT is almost eighteen months since the impressions here recorded first were offered to the public; and re-reading them now, after the interval, I am conscious that for me the first glad joy of it is over, I can never again recapture the shimmering golden glamour of it all. Indeed, looking back through the grey mist of England, I find myself tempted, with the wisdom or folly of later remembrance, to revise, rewrite, tone down some of the pictures that now seem too polychromatic in the retrospect. But I have refrained, feeling that thereby any value they may possess as truth would be mirror dimmed by the breathings of the later mood - their individuality would thus be lost. Nevertheless, I have yielded to temptation to this extent: so' many have written asking What became of them afterwards? That I have added a postscript to the original narrative telling what they thought of it all, and how they liked being put into a book. Nothing had pleased me more than the numerous letters I have received from doctors - young men writing eagerly to know if I could find them such a ship in which they might have such experiences, older men enquiring furtively, apologetically, if their grey hairs could possibly be overlooked so that they too might find themselves amid similar surroundings. Apparently romance dies hard, and so to all I have replied that, given the proper subjective attitude of mind, their pleasure under similar circumstances would be as great - for it is in ourselves, not in the events that occur to us that happiness is to be found.
