Ali–Frazier 1: Black Gladiators,White Promoters,and the Economics of Big-Time Boxing

Abstract

The March 1971 heavyweight championship bout between undefeated black boxers Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier elicited numerous responses. Ali, because of his brash persona, refusal to be drafted into the Vietnam War, and outspoken criticisms of white racism, had become a potent symbol of 1960s rebellion and Black Power. Frazier, by claiming the heavyweight championship while Ali was banished, cozying up to white politicians, and refusing to criticize the US government, made himself a worthy foil for Ali’s politics. But as the rhetoric surrounding the fight intensified, regarding black masculinity, patriotism, and community pride, one key aspect of the fight opened up debates in a surprising realm: the economics of black athletes and the possibilities and limitations of black capitalism. In an era when black capitalist programmes emerged nationwide, and when African-American athletes took on more vocal roles as community activists, the battles over the bout’s financial promotion became intense. While the boxers took home an unprecedented $2.5 million each for their participation, total revenues reached nearly $30 million. Discussions of the fight’s payout shed light on a wide range of economic issues facing the black community, and some of the unresolved issues in the quest for civil rights.     

“怜子圣母”与＂祸水红颜＂的交战——从《乔·琴科的安慰》看澳大利亚后女性主义症候

《乔·琴科的安慰——一个关于死亡、悲伤和法律的真实故事》是澳大利亚女作家海伦·加纳继《第一块石头》之后出版的又一部受到极大关注的、具有后女性主义视角的非虚构性作品。该作以1997年10月发生在澳大利亚国立大学的一起两位法律系女生涉嫌谋杀的案件为中心展开追踪和思考,呈现了后现代时期女性主义的代际冲突、道德与法律之间的矛盾以及男女主体意识的颠覆。加纳作为20世纪70年代末澳大利亚女性主义写作的先锋,在女性主义变为后女性主义的过程中不断调整着自己的女性主义坐标,从激进女性主义干将转为质疑女性主义政治和受害者哲学的后女性主义者。     

论小说《新安家族》和《乔家大院》的影视化意识

当下小说创作在视觉文化的导向下进行着影视化阐释,这为小说研究提供了一种新维度。季宇的《新安家族》和朱秀海的《乔家大院》作为"影视同期书",在小说的书写中有意识地将小说的语言、结构和审美体验与影视艺术进行契合。作品中的语言借鉴影视的声画特色,进行了可视性描写,结构上进行空间建构和蒙太奇的组接,呈现出"直感"性的审美趣味,达到了与影视互通共赢的效果。     

Learning, knowing and being in the world: postformalism, Einstein, and lessons from a kid named Larry

I describe how Joe Kincheloe experienced learning from a peer during his pre-school life only to see how his friend was unable to succeed at school. Joe’s commitment to empowered cognition was grounded first, by his friend, Larry’s mentorship—teaching him the environmental nuances of the mountains in rural Tennessee, and secondly, the contradiction of schooling being unable to afford learning for Larry. This article discusses how Kincheloe became a scholar, the salience of Einstein’s work with his own, and the evolution of his research and scholarship. Examples of Kincheloe’s work addressed are: postformalism, bricolage, critical theory, and alternative knowledges, and how this work has contributed to science education.

哈萨克族叙事诗《阔孜库尔佩西与芭艳苏露》之《乔汗版本》的节奏特色

运用人类学、文学与韵律学相结合的研究方法,对哈萨克族叙事诗《阔孜库尔佩西与芭艳苏露》之《乔汗.瓦里汗诺夫版本》的音节、音步、诗行和诗段进行了系统的分析归类。该版本形成的年代比较早,节奏比较规则,基本上是由十一个音节组成的三音步四行诗段。在其他形成比较晚的版本中,出现了七个或八个音节组成的双音步诗行,这与阿肯对唱逐渐运用乐器伴奏有关。
