This dissertation investigates nineteenth-century Canadian literary and general interest periodicals through the prefaces and other editorial missives written by the editors who created them. It seeks to demonstrate how these cultural workers saw their magazines as vehicles for promoting civic and literary development. While the handful of previous Canadian magazine dissertations take a “snapshot” approach to the genre by profiling a handful of titles within a region, this study attempts to capture the editorial impulse behind magazine development more widely. To do so, it examines multiple titles over a wider geographical and chronological span. To provide context for these primary documents, the dissertation begins with a chapter that summarizes the development of magazines as a genre and the history of publishing in nineteenth-century Canada. Subsequent chapters examine prefaces by theme as well as by rhetorical strategy. Themes such as nationalism, cultural development, and anti-Americanism emerge most prominently, alongside rhetorical techniques such as metaphor, imagery, analogy and personification. The dissertation also examines other sites of editorial interaction, most commonly the “correspondent’s columns,” where editors provided public feedback on topics ranging from versification to currency to prose style as a means of educating writers and readers alike. Finally, the dissertation relies on existing indexes to identify some of the most prolific contributors to the magazines, considering how these writers used the magazines to boost their literary careers. In the early century, these sources verify the productivity of canonical writers such as Susanna Moodie and Rosanna Leprohon, and call attention to obscure writers such as Eliza Lanesford Cushing, W. Arthur Calnek, James Haskins, and Mary Jane Katzmann Lawson. In the later century, the same approach is used again to examine the hive of writers who emerged to contribute to late century magazines like The Canadian Monthly and National Review and The Week, confirming the immense productivity of writers such as Agnes Maule Machar and drawing attention to now-obscure contributors like Mary Morgan. By recovering these overlooked editorial elements and figures, this dissertation draws scholarly attention to a more nuanced view of literary production and affirms the importance of magazines to literary development in nineteenth-century Canada.

The aim of this study was to identify what kind of masculinity is shown in 54 articles of the Swedish lifestyle magazine Magazine Café of 1993 and 2008, and in which way this masculinity may be different from eachother. The study included four magazine issues of each year with analysis focus on main articles and abolishment of reviews and press items.  The method was semiotic analysis with focus on manly characteristics and stereotypes.  The result showed that the normative man pictured in Magazine Café in 1993 was a man’s-man interested in manly characteristic business as sports, outdoor adventures and women. Fifteen years later not much has changed. The manly characteristics are the same but they have been complemented with a man-by-man accepted and homosexually inspired vain.

Contar histórias faz parte da prática jornalística, e o storytelling digital possibilita a construção de histórias elaboradas para o ambiente digital. Esta dissertação tem por objetivo investigar como a revista Época – pioneira no uso do suporte digital no Brasil – conta histórias no tablet. Para isso, levam-se em consideração os contornos conceituais de revista nesse contexto, a partir de características do meio impresso e do meio digital, partindo de apontamentos de autores como Benetti (2013), Scalzo (2011) e Cunha (2011), e de tipologias de produto jornalístico em formato digital, conforme categorias citadas por Pellanda (2012), Souza (2013), Canavilhas (2014) e, sobretudo, Dourado (2013). Há, então, uma observação sobre as partes gerais de storytelling, de acordo com Pinto (2012), associadas ao uso de estruturas para revistas no tablet, conforme aponta Garcia (2012), e elementos digitais, segundo Silvia e Anzur (2011). Para alcançar o objetivo estabelecido, foi elaborada uma ficha de observação que baliza o estudo das sete edições publicadas no ano de 2014 que apresentam capa e matéria de capa com recursos dinâmicos e multimídia. Nos resultados obtidos, consta contribuição das partes, das estruturas e dos elementos de storytelling digital para o aprofundamento de temas, a contextualização de informações e a experiência com a história. / Storytelling is part of journalistic practice, and the digital storytelling enables the construction of stories prepared for the digital environment. This dissertation aims to investigate how the magazine Época - pioneered the use of digital media in Brazil - tells stories on the tablet. For this, it is taken into account the revised conceptual contours about magazine in this context, from characteristics of the print media and digital media, following authors like Benetti (2013), Scalzo (2011) and Cunha (2011), and of journalistic product types in digital format, as quoted categories by Pellanda (2012), Souza (2013), Canavilhas (2014) and, above all, Dourado (2013). Then, there is an observation about the general parts of storytelling, according to Pinto (2012), associated with the use of structures for magazines on the tablet, as shown by Garcia (2012), and digital elements, according to Silvia and Anzur (2011). To achieve the goal, it was established an observation sheet that has been made to the study of the seven editions published in 2014 presenting cover and cover story with dynamic and multimedia features. In the results, there is contribution of parts, structures and digital storytelling elements to deepen themes, the contextualization of information and experience with the story.

Desenvolvida a partir de uma perspectiva histórico-cultural, essa temática centrou-se na análise de fenômenos/temas/fatos em torno dos feminismos, suas representações e apropriações, expressos no debate sobre a sexualidade feminina e a luta por igualdade política mais atenta aos direitos civis em relação aos homens. Tais temas foram apropriados, capitalizados e devolvidos às leitoras como discursos ideológicos materializados na prestação de serviços pelas revistas Claudia e Querida que viam, nas ditas redefinições, ora um fenômeno de mudança cultural de caráter revolucionário, ora acomodações de práticas sociais modernas, que se afirmavam em meio às disputas com os segmentos que defendiam as ideologias tradicionais, voltadas às ações das mulheres nos espaços públicos e privados. Das principais fontes utilizadas, foram selecionadas matérias informativas sobre assuntos diversos, considerados de interesse das leitoras, como a atuação política, os direitos das mulheres, o casamento, o desquite e o divórcio e o controle da natalidade, além das seções de cartas e colunas de “consultório sentimental”, que circularam em vários exemplares de Claudia e Querida, entre os anos de 1960 e 1979. / The central theme of this work was the verification of how the representations of a new type of woman was built in Brazil, during the 1960's and 70's, through the examination of two periodicals, the magazines Claudia and Querida. Based on a cultural-historical point of view, this theme was centered upon the analysis of facts, themes and phenomenon concerning feminism, its representations and appropriations expressed in the debate about female sexuality and the struggle for political equality, particularly on the civil rights in respect of men. Such topics were appropriated, capitalized and returned to the women, readers of those magazines, as ideological discourses manifested in the format of services carried out by Claudia and Querida, which considered the redefinitions of the new woman, either a phenomenon of cultural change marked by revolutionary features, or adjustments of modern social practices being affirmed among the disputes with segments of traditional ideologies defenders, concerning women's actions in public and private spaces. Informative issues on several subjects were chosen from the main sources, taking into account the interest of female readers such as political actions, women's rights, marriage, divorce, birth control besides the letters and sentimental advisory sections, which were easily found in various copies of Claudia and Querida in the 1960's and 70's.

The thesis is focused on the student journalism and its comparison with the content of national magazines intended for children and teenagers. The main aim of the thesis is to find out to what extent the topics in the school and national magazines are intertwined; what topics are most commonly found in national journals, and the extent to which students of (secondary) schools take on their journalistic work. The first (theoretical) part of the thesis is intended to characterize the principle and the main mission of the school magazines, ie what they serve and what their main benefits are for students or other readers. In this part, youth magazines are further specified in terms of the main target group of readers, content and relevant topics, language forms, etc. The theoretical part also explains basic concepts such as intelligence values and stereotypes in media presentation that will be used in analytical work. The aim of the practical part is to perform the brief characteristics of the studied sample of student and national magazines, including the criteria of their selection and especially the content analysis, exploring the most important and most frequented topics that the journals are exploring. The results of the analysis will serve as a basis for subsequent comparison, ie. what topics are...
