Revisioning Film Traditions
Films like The Blair Witch Project and Lone Star are contemporary representations of outgrowths of documentary and Western movies. This text examines the re-emergence of past styles in film. Writers and directors are re-visioning genres by placing new slants on old themes while inspiring and improvising future genres to provide tools of construction and interpretation for both the storytellers and the audience. The pseudo-documentary's reflextive quality gives a window on the world that previous, traditional, genres didn't. The neo-western movies look backwards as well as forward, building on American traditions but also looking to the future to carry the story further.

Stigma and Perseverance in the Lives of Boys who Dance
This study investigates the competitive world of pre-professional Western concert dance training and education in the U.S. as experienced and lived by boys and young men, an under-represented population in the field. The substantial social implications about gender, femininity, masculinity, homophobia, sexual orientation, gendered bodies, and child culture will appeal to multiple readerships interested in arts education, humanizing pedagogies, and social justice concerns.
Literature of Satire in the Twelfth Century
Some studies of formal satire suggest that this genre faded with Juvenal or Apuleius and did not reappear until Erasmus. This work argues that such neglect of the entire medieval period omits the most prolific era for Latin verse satire in literary history.
Understanding Musical Understanding

The Irony of Apartheid
