Seminar paper from the year 2010 in the subject American Studies - Culture and Applied Geography, grade: 1,0, University of Frankfurt (Main) (Neue Englischsprachige Kulturen und Literaturen), language: English, abstract: "Space, the Final Frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. Its continuing mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go, where no one has gone before." - Opening credits of Star Trek: The Next Generation These are the opening lines of one of the most successful franchises of popular culture: Star Trek. In 1966 when the first episode of the science-fiction series "Star Trek" The Original Series was aired on US television author and creator Gene Roddenberry would not possibly have envisioned the cultural and political impact Star Trek would have even four decades later. He nevertheless envisioned very clearly that this "trek" would take its audience to "strange new worlds [...] and new civilizations". That this would exactly fall into the field of the discourses of postcolonial studies is no mere coincidence. The opening credits very straightforwardly indicate what voyages the audience will participate in. The exploration of "strange new worlds" and "new civilizations" recalls the narratives of Imperialism and Colonialism. Accordingly Star Trek can be read as another form of travelogue. The purpose of this work is to establish the narratives of Star Trek as a travelogue in the context of imperialist and colonial discourses. Having done so, I will examine Star Trek's standing within these discourses. My focus will be on the depiction of "the other" within Star Trek. On the basis of one episode of the TV series, Star Trek: The Next Generation I will juxtapose the argument of critics that Trek is either racist and imperialist in its conception or the depiction of a desirable Utopia.

Disgust (Ekel, dégoût) is a state of high alert. It acutely says "no" to a variety of phenomena that seemingly threaten the integrity of the self, if not its very existence. A counterpart to the feelings of appetite, desire, and love, it allows at the same time for an acting out of hidden impulses and libidinal drives. In Disgust, Winfried Menninghaus provides a comprehensive account of the significance of this forceful emotion in philosophy, aesthetics, literature, the arts, psychoanalysis, and theory of culture from the eighteenth century to the present. Topics addressed include the role of disgust as both a cognitive and moral organon in Kant and Nietzsche; the history of the imagination of the rotting corpse; the counter-cathexis of the disgusting in Romantic poetics and its modernist appeal ever since; the affinities of disgust and laughter and the analogies of vomiting and writing; the foundation of Freudian psychoanalysis in a theory of disgusting pleasures and practices; the association of disgusting "otherness" with truth and the trans-symbolic "real" in Bataille, Sartre, and Kristeva; Kafka's self-representation as an "Angel" of disgusting smells and acts, concealed in a writerly stance of uncompromising "purity"; and recent debates on "Abject Art."

To most people, technology has been reduced to computers, consumer goods, and military weapons; we speak of "technological progress" in terms of RAM and CD-ROMs and the flatness of our television screens. In Human-Built World, thankfully, Thomas Hughes restores to technology the conceptual richness and depth it deserves by chronicling the ideas about technology expressed by influential Western thinkers who not only understood its multifaceted character but who also explored its creative potential. Hughes draws on an enormous range of literature, art, and architecture to explore what technology has brought to society and culture, and to explain how we might begin to develop an "ecotechnology" that works with, not against, ecological systems. From the "Creator" model of development of the sixteenth century to the "big science" of the 1940s and 1950s to the architecture of Frank Gehry, Hughes nimbly charts the myriad ways that technology has been woven into the social and cultural fabric of different eras and the promises and problems it has offered. Thomas Jefferson, for instance, optimistically hoped that technology could be combined with nature to create an Edenic environment; Lewis Mumford, two centuries later, warned of the increasing mechanization of American life. Such divergent views, Hughes shows, have existed side by side, demonstrating the fundamental idea that "in its variety, technology is full of contradictions, laden with human folly, saved by occasional benign deeds, and rich with unintended consequences." In Human-Built World, he offers the highly engaging history of these contradictions, follies, and consequences, a history that resurrects technology, rightfully, as more than gadgetry; it is in fact no less than an embodiment of human values.

Alfred Hitchcock "Alfred Hitchcock dominiert die Filmgeschichte wie Napoleon: Unbeirrbar, enigmatisch und schonungslos sich selbst vermarktend. Wie Bonaparte hat er eine ikonische Marke geschaffen, die zu jeder Zeit besteht." (Bryony Dixon/British Film Institute 2012) Der Name "Alfred Hitchcock" steht für ein außergewöhnliches Gesamtkunstwerk: Filme wie 39 STUFEN, REAR WINDOW, VERTIGO, PSYCHO oder THE BIRDS haben sich als Klassiker in das kollektive kulturelle Gedächtnis eingeschrieben. Zugleich hat Hitchcock sich selbst als unverwechselbare Ikone inszeniert; ein Star, der mit viel Ironie und schwarzem Humor seine filmische Welten (an)moderiert und orchestriert. So gibt es wohl auch keinen anderen Filmregisseur, über den soviel geschrieben worden ist. Dies kann und will dieser Beitrag nicht ignorieren. Diese Einführung gibt in mehrfacher Hinsicht einen Überblick: Als Grundlage für die exemplarischen Filmanalysen ausgewählter Werke werden vorab die großen Linien der ausufernden Forschungsliteratur vorgestellt. Man kann Hitchcock heute nicht ohne die Überlieferung in der Zeit sehen. Dieser Erkenntnis folgend, legt dieser Band darüber hinaus einen besonderen Schwerpunkt auf die heutige mediale Rezeption von Hitchcock: Welche Bedeutung haben Spielfilme (Biopics), Remakes, Sequels, Parodien wie auch Praxen der Filmrestaurierung und der digitalen Distribution für unsere Wahrnehmung von Hitchcock und seinen Filmen heute?
