Abstract

Bathing beauty Esther Williams, bombshell Jane Russell, exotic Carmen Miranda, chanteuse Lena Horne, and talk-show fixture Zsa Zsa Gabor are rarely hailed as great actors or as naturalistic performers. Those terms of praise are given to male stars like Marlon Brando and James Dean, whose gritty dramas are seen as a departure from the glossy spectacles in which these stars appeared. Like a Natural Woman challenges those assumptions, revealing the skill and training that went into the work of these five actresses, who employed naturalistic performance techniques, both onscreen and off. Bringing a fresh perspective to film history through the lens of performance studies, Kirsten Pullen explores the ways in which these actresses, who always appeared to be "playing themselves," responded to the naturalist notion that actors should create authentic characters by drawing from their own lives. At the same time, she examines how Hollywood presented these female stars as sex objects, focusing on their spectacular bodies at the expense of believable characterization or narratives. Pullen not only helps us appreciate what talented actresses these five women actually were, but also reveals how they sought to express themselves and maintain agency, even while meeting the demands of their directors, studios, families, and fans to perform certain feminine roles. Drawing from a rich collection of classic films, publicity materials, and studio archives, Like a Natural Woman lets us take a new look at both Hollywood acting techniques and the performance of femininity itself.

Abstract

De loopbaan en het leven van vijf actrices - bekend om hun schoonheid, maar ook omwille van hun naturalistische ac-teerstijl en authenticiteit - worden in dit boek besproken. Het gaat om Esther Wil-liams, Jane Russell, Carmen Miranda, Lena Horne en Zsa Zsa Gabor.&#13;In de klassieke Hollywoodfilms primeerde het verhaal nog boven de filmtechniek, want men wou een zo realistisch en natuurlijk mogelijke representatie van mensen, situaties en plaatsen bewerkstelligen. Vrouwelijke personages werden echter vaak gereduceerd tot een soort mannequins, louter als opsmuk van de film. Authentieke personages werden gecreëerd met meestal enkel mannelijke acteurs in gedachten. Vrouwen leken aan hun lot te zijn overgelaten. Williams, Russell, Miranda, Horne en Gabor gaven hun personages echter een memorabele naturel mee, omdat ze alle vijf heel sterk waren in het gebruiken van de eigen psychologie, en ze wisten zo de emotionele respons van hun personages waarheidsgetrouw weer te geven.

Abstract

This book is a novel attempt to understand humanism as a socially meaningful cultural idiom in Late Renaissance East Central Europe. Through an exploration of geographical regions that are relatively little known to an English reading public, it argues that late sixteenth-century East Central Europe was culturally thriving and intellectually open in the period between Copernicus and Galileo. Humanism was a dominant cluster of shared intellectual practices and cultural values that brought a number of concrete benefits both to the social-climber intellectual and to the social elite. Two exemplary case studies illustrate this thesis in substantive detail, and highlight the ambivalences and difficulties court humanists routinely faced. The protagonists Johannes Sambucus and Andreas Dudith, both born in the Kingdom of Hungary, were two of the major humanists of the Habsburg court, central figures in cosmopolitan networks of men learning and characteristic representatives of an Erasmian spirit that was struggling for survival in the face of confessionalisation. Through an analysis of their careers at court and a presentation of their self-fashioning as savants and courtiers, the book explores the social and political significance of their humanist learning and intellectual strategies.
