Malamud's "The Natural": Novel and Movie.
[ send me this paper ]
(5 pp). Bernard Malamud's (1914-1986) first novel, The Natural, an allegory about the rise and fall of a baseball player, was published in 1952. According to Rothstein (1986), it is different from most of his work in that there are no Jewish characters. After the book was made into a movie starring Robert Redford in 1984, Malamud said in an interview that he was grateful for the film because it allowed him ''to be recognized once more as an American writer'' as opposed to a Jewish writer. But The Natural is similar to his later novels and stories in that it lies in the realm of a morality play. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Men's Magazine Ads: Representation Of Masculinity
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Historically, the media have not earned the most stellar of reputations when it comes to portraying reality; indeed, the manner by which magazine advertising skews the perspective of male masculinity has come to represent a commonplace approach to capitalistic consumerism. Proponents of magazine advertising contend that there is one phrase for those who are prone to the deceptiveness of media marketing: caveat emptor. They argue that it is not up to the advertiser to be responsible for the buyer's gullibility, even if that buyer happens to be an impressionable male seeking to emulate the ad's buff model.

Natural Turf Versus Artificial Turf Sports Fields
[ send me this paper ]
This 16 page report discusses the benefits and controversies that exist in the sports world regarding artificial and natural turf playing fields. In the big money realm of professional sports, playing surfaces are generally chosen and maintained on the basis of what is the most cost effective and least problematic. Concerns regarding aesthetics, the “feel” of the surface, and personal preference of the players have been thought of as secondary, even tertiary, concerns. However, a huge number of injuries have been directly blamed on artificial turf and have resulted in key players being kept out of a game or even put on the injured list for an entire season. This report examines a number of those concerns and looks at potential alternatives. Bibliography lists 15 sources.

New Policy On Steroid Testing In Major League Baseball: Morally Justified?
[ send me this paper ]
4 pages in length. It was only a matter of time before the black eye of steroidal use throughout major league baseball would instigate official policy as a means by which to try to re-establish the pure and unadulterated national pastime of long ago. Today's drug use within the league is responsible for a slow but steady decline in the combined factors of attendance and respect, a coupling that one would not necessarily expect to find within the realm of sports but one that has become wholly integrated in the way fans have responded to what has transpired with arguably the most favored game in America. In short, because steroidal use is not a morally justifiable action on the player's part, the implementation of new testing policy represents a direct moral response that demands users abide by the same contractual rules with which they agreed when first signing to play ball. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
