  • University College Cork, Ireland (Ucc)
    Phd Researcher
    University College Cork, Ireland (Ucc) Oct 2015 - Oct 2019
    Cork, Ireland
    My PhD thesis explores the representation of the African-American slave experience in cinema from 1915 to the present, including the representation of slavery, gender, identity and race on screen. The main argument draws on Henry Louis Gates’ theory of “Signifyin(g)” and considers theories on race, representation and intertextuality. While original slave narratives were verbal/written, cinematic evolutions are audio-visual, influencing both form and content, allowing the audience to literally ‘see’ through the eyes of the enslaved. This analysis incorporates contemporary films, such as The Birth of a Nation (Parker, 2016), 12 Years a Slave (McQueen, 2013), Django Unchained (Tarantino, 2012), which offer rich multi-layered visual imaginings of the slave narrative and have yet to be fully examined. Using a transmedia analysis, cinematic slave narratives are positioned in the context of a recurring social phenomenon – a modern reflection and contemporary equivalent of the 20th century Civil Rights Movement and 19th century abolitionism. The significance of the conversation which this research initiates bears increased relevance in light of the global political and social milieu of the 21st century. The scope and interdisciplinary breadth of this dissertation make a vital addition to current slave narrative and slavery scholarship, refining our understanding of these narratives and their persistent relevance as commemorations of the black experience and as commentaries on slavery and its present-day legacy.
