‘Of a Human Satellite’: Cassius Clay/Muhammad Ali in Cold War Finnish Television Culture, 1960–1965
<p>This article discusses the reception of Cassius Clay/Muhammad Ali in Finnish media from 1960 to 1965, during the emergence of satellite broadcasting networks.

Maisema ja muisti Delmer Davesin lännenelokuvissa 1950–1959
<p>
Delmer Daves ohjasi 1950-luvulla sarjan huolellisesti suunniteltuja lännenelokuvia, jotka olivat myös kaupallisia menestyksiä. Artikkelissa käsitellään miten Daves rakensi oman ikonografiansa ennen kaikkea Arizonan maisemien varaan ja miten hän tehosti kuvastoa omalla persoonallisella visuaalisella tyylillään. Davesin lännenelokuvat ovat rakentaneet kulttuurista muistia myös audiovisuaalisessa mielessä, muovaamalla westernin kuvastoa ja sitä tapaa, jolla lajityyppi itse muistaa omaa menneisyyttään.</p>...
