In broad strokes, my dissertation seeks to build up this foundation, and investigate the effects this has on copyright decisions. Masters Research The Sequential Aesthetic: Contemporary Aesthetic Theory as Applied to Sequential Art University of Wales, Lampeter My M.Phil looks at the comics medium ("sequential art") and its place in the larger scope of the arts. Although in the years that have passed since writing it, I have come to some different conclusions, this research served as the basis for a course I taught at the University of Maryland (see the "Courses" section of this site to view the syllabus). |
