Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2011 im Fachbereich Amerikanistik - Literatur, einseitig bedruckt, Note: -, Universität Leipzig (Institut für Amerikanistik), Veranstaltung: Into the Wild: (Taming) Nature in American Literature and Culture, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Der Wilde Westen - kaum ein Abschnitt der amerikanischen Geschichte wird bis heute soglorifiziert wie er. Er ist ein Mythos, welcher ein Gefühl von Abenteuer, Freiheit und Romantikauslöst. Doch ist der Wilde Westen auch ein raues Land, das für Gesetzlosig-keit steht und inwelchem nur die Starken überleben. Vielleicht wirkt diese Gegensätzlich-keit anziehend auf denMenschen, ebenso die Lust aus Gewohntem auszubrechen und sein Glück auf Wegen zuversuchen, welche noch nicht ausgetreten sind.Der Traum vom Westen führte gar zu einem eigenständigen literarischen und filmischen Genre,dem Western. Wer kennt heutzutage nicht die Abenteuerromane Karl Mays, die Filme undFernsehserien um tapfere Cowboys und Sheriffs im Kampf gegen böse Schurken oder umFamilien, die mutig ein neues Leben in unbekanntem Land beginnen Vor allem durch diegenannten Medien wird die Vorstellung vom Leben im Wilden Wes-ten geprägt. Engverknüpft sind mit diesem Begriff darum verschiedene Szenarien wie rauchende Colts,Schlägereien im Saloon und die Konfrontation mit Indianern. Doch ent-spricht dies derhistorischen WirklichkeitZiel dieser Hausarbeit soll darum die allgemeine Untersuchung zum Leben im westlichenSiedlungsgebiet der Vereinigten Staaten im 19. Jahrhundert sein. Der Hauptaugenmerk wirddabei auf die amerikanische Autorin Laura Ingalls Wilder gelegt, welche diese Epoche nicht nurmiterlebte, sondern ihre Erfahrungen in mehreren Büchern und Texten verar-beitete. Anlässlichder Recherche für diese Arbeit wurde das Buch Little House on the Prairie ausgewählt, um es aufverschiedene thematische Aspekte, die sich vor allem auf das Familienleben beziehen, zuuntersuchen. Diese Themen sind im Einzelnen die Rolle des Mannes und der Frau und das Lebender Kinder als Pioniere des amerikanischen Westens.

Countless devoted fans welcomed his debut as the heavenly angel, Jonathan Smith, on 'Highway to Heaven.' Now, here is a look at the lighter side of Michael Landon-the compassionate, generous man with an enormous capacity for fun and laughter. Affectionately written by Pamela and Harry Flynn, longtime friends and his public relations consultants for almost nine years, this poignant tribute presents Landon at his best-the gags, pranks, and outrageous practical jokes he played on the family, friends, and co-workers who knew and loved him.
