Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Seminar paper from the year 2017 in the subject Didactics - English - History of Literature, Eras, grade: 2,0, University of Paderborn, language: English, abstract: In this term paper, I am going to argue that the reason for the gender conflict as…well as the gender development in hard-boiled detective fiction can be found in the historical background and historical incidents of which the United States suffered during the Twenties. Further, I will support Seesslen's claim that, after World War I, there was the public's desire for a more honest and harsh view of America which is fulfilled by the post-war realism used in hard-boiled fiction.For this, I will try to outline the realism in Dashiell Hammett's 'The Maltese Falcon' (1930) as a representation and/or critique of the United States in the 1920s. This particular novel is used because it can be seen as representative for many other hard-boiled fictions and the hard-boiled genre in general as Dashiell Hammett's work redefined crime fiction. His stories mark an obvious shift from the classical detective story in which the detective is the main crime solver in middle-class suburban places, to an urban space in the United States where organized crime, gangsters and corruption pervade the city. The characters involved in 'The Maltese Falcon' will help to draw a certain connection between the historical development of the United States and the development of men and women in hard-boiled fiction. For that reason, in chapter 2, I will try to define the hard-boiled genre and in which way its plot structure and themes are shaped by the historical events and social issues of that time.In chapter 3, I will present the two archetypal characters, the Femme fatale and the tough guy, in hard-boiled fiction. Because both of them can be found in 'The Maltese Falcon', I will use this novel to analyse masculinity, or more precisely, the protagonist Sam Spade, and femininity, mainly Brigid O'Shaughnessy, in chapter 4 and 5.By means of the conclusion in chapter 6 I will summarize the main results in order to support my thesis that the hard-boiled fictions' plot, especially the gender identities, mirror historical incidents and social developments the United States underwent during 1920 onward. In addition, I will put the insights on femininity and masculinity in hard-boiled detective fictions in a broader context concerning the film industry and the hard-boiled fiction's impact on following genres, just like Film noir.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Seminar paper from the year 2015 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Culture and Applied Geography, grade: 1,0, University of Duisburg-Essen, course: British Rock since 1960, language: English, abstract: The British movie 'Quad…rophenia' directed by Franc Roddam and released in 1979, picks youngsters' identity problems from the working class in Britain in the sixties out as a central theme. It is based on the rock opera of the same name by the British band 'The Who'. The film is quite interesting to watch, especially as a young person, because after all the then-problems still affect today's youth. It is hard for a young person to find his/her position in society and too many influences from the outside world can distract you from achieving what you aim for in life. In the first part of this term paper I am going to describe the mood of the sixties in England, when the story of the young London Mod James Michael Cooper takes place and important changes during this decade will be mentioned. Besides, two subcultures will be presented: the Teddy Boys, as the beginning of youth movements in England in 1950 and the Rockers, the Mods' enemies. In the second part of this thesis, I am going to characterise the protagonist of the film 'Quadrophenia' in detail. Jimmy's outward appearance will be described as well as his state of mind. Furthermore, the rivalry between Mods and Rockers will be analised. The members of both subcultures differ not only from their outward appearance but as well in their taste of music and lifestyle which led to riots between 1964 and 1966 between Mods and Rockers, especially at weekends in seaside resorts like Brighton, Margate, Clacton and Hastings.
