Undocumented Acts: Migration,Community and Audience in Two Chicana Plays

Abstract

The 1980 Refugee Act endeavoured to provide effective settlement for refugees entering the United States. But most South American refugees escaping from dictatorships and civil wars were denied political asylum. This article explores the representation of migration and border crossing in Latina (1980 Sánchez-Scott, Milcha, with Jeremy Blahnik. 1980. “Latina.” In Necessary Theatre Six Plays about the Chicano Experience, edited by Jorge Huerta, 85–141. Houston: Arte Publico Press. [Google Scholar]), a play by Milcha Sánchez Scott that stages the difficulties associated with this journey. In 2010 Senate Bill 1070, one of the strictest anti-immigration legislative acts to be enforced, encouraged racial profiling in the identification of border crossers in the state of Arizona. Detained in the Desert (2011), a play by Josefina L?pez, is a Chicana response to the passing of SB 1070, and contributes to a deeper understanding of the fraught experiences of migrant women’s lives. The study of the plays places an emphasis on transnational community building and audience engagement and builds on a range of recent critical work by border theorists and scholars such as Alicia Schmidt Camacho and Deborah Boehm, and theatre and performance critics such as Diana Taylor.

从《红楼梦》经典英译看译者修辞认知

翻译无不渗透着译者,既是读者又是译语表达者的修辞认知。从译者修辞认知入手,分析《红楼梦》三则性爱描写片断中霍克斯译本和杨宪益译本的英语译文。译者从源语到目的语转换过程中,有意识地在译文中融入了对原文自我个人主观的阅读认知,在译入语中呈现出为目的语的受众所接受的普遍再阅读认知。译者修辞认知在把握原著语言风格、再现译本翻译风格中发挥着决定作用。     

众媒体联手打造神话--论20世纪30年代《啼笑因缘》的包装出品

张恨水的<啼笑因缘>是20世纪30年代中国文坛的一大神话.在这一神话的打造中,媒体扮演了极为重要的角色:报社、出版社、电影公司相互联手,形成了<啼笑因缘>的多重立体传播.且整个传播过程精彩纷呈,既有精心的策划与包装,又有不期而至的新闻点.这一切构成了该作火热出炉的壮观场景.     

前苏联时期新闻媒介受众的社会学调查

当我们排除作为前苏联学术界的这块挡箭牌时,会对它这个领域的发生、发展有全新的认识。前苏联学者不局限于借助西方的经验,在新闻媒介受众调查的实践中形成独具特色的理论体系,甚至在这方面的视野更宽、范围更广、内容更丰富。前苏联学者的社会学调查,包括新闻媒介受众社会学调查的经验对于今天在我国蓬勃开展的受众调查会有一些帮助的。     

展会参展观众的满意度影响因素分析——基于湖南省展会调查数据的研究

利用2009～2010年针对长株潭三地比较大型的展览会进行现场调研所得的3101份参展观众问卷数据,通过建立有序Probit模型,考察了参展观众个人特征、展会特征及其效应等三个方面的10个变量对参展观众展会满意度的影响。研究结果发现,湖南省展览会目前的参展观众满意度仍然存在较大的提升空间,展览会的组织工作情况、展览会参展商的质量、参展观众参展达到预期目标的程度和展览会参展商的数量是影响参展观众对展览会总体评价的核心所在。根据上述结论,本文提出了提高会展满意度的相关政策建议。     

Social Image and the 50–50 Norm: A Theoretical and Experimental Analysis of Audience Effects

A norm of 50–50 division appears to have considerable force in a wide range of economic environments, both in the real world and in the laboratory. Even in settings where one party unilaterally determines the allocation of a prize (the dictator game), many subjects voluntarily cede exactly half to another individual. The hypothesis that people care about fairness does not by itself account for key experimental patterns. We consider an alternative explanation, which adds the hypothesis that people like to be perceived as fair. The properties of equilibria for the resulting signaling game correspond closely to laboratory observations. The theory has additional testable implications, the validity of which we confirm through new experiments.     

时政期刊的主流话语及其公共领域建构

20世纪90年代以来新兴的时政期刊,依赖于市场经济和传媒产业化趋势,将受众定位于中产阶层,在新闻的话语上出现了新的特征,建构出新的主流时政新闻话语,着力营造着以中产阶层为主体的公共领域。     

“Wealthy Gay Couples Buying Babies Produced in India by Poor Womb-Women: Audience Interpretations of Transnational Surrogacy in TV News

ABSTRACT

Surrogacy is beginning to generate public debate, and the way the media approach it may have negative effects on social attitudes toward gay parenting. The news media play a key role in informing society, especially about topics such as surrogacy, of which most audiences have no direct experience. The aim of our research is to explore opinion formation of surrogacy and gay parenting by analyzing the audience interpretation of a TV news story in Spain. To do this we conducted four focus groups that were analyzed using a qualitative content analysis based on the discourse produced by the participants. The results show that the framing strategies used in the news story contribute to advocating an attitude of repudiation toward surrogacy, with an adverse sentiment also extending to homosexual couples who wish to become parents. This leads us to discuss the role of media in shaping public opinion and the resulting potential consequences in the case of surrogacy and gay parenting.     

中国戏曲动画创作的现状与创新发展

中国戏曲以开放的姿态,融合舞蹈、音乐、文学、美术、服饰等多种艺术形式,形成了独特的艺术综合体系。时至今日,戏曲仍旧以其丰富的艺术元素和深厚的文化内涵成为中国艺术工作者取之不尽的灵感源泉。中国动画界根据树立本土动漫品牌的战略需求,也开始了对戏曲元素的挖掘与利用。戏曲动画应运而生,并取得了一些阶段性成果。但目前戏曲动画的创作仍存在多方面的局限性,故应在正视现实的基础上,果断调整创作思路,对戏曲解构式融入动画创作,对戏曲动画与新媒体结合的形式进行全新的探索,创作出好看又有意味的中国戏曲动画,从而为树立中国本土动漫品牌作出新的探索。
