First and Only Weekly Online Fanzine Devoted to the Life and Works of Edgar Rice Burroughs Since 1996 ~ Over 15,000 Web Pages in Archive presents Volume 6027 TARZAN AND JANE Forever In Fashion: Part I From a PowerPoint Presentation by DJ Howell Adapted to the Web by Bill Hillman Continued in Part II |
SADLY, SOME COMMUNITY COLLEGE STUDENTS
FOUND THE VOCABULARY TOO SOPHISTICATED,
YET THE NOVEL NOT SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN
. . . IF ERB’S OWN WORDS NOT ENOUGH,
THERE IS MORE
THE CLAIM FOR SUPERMAN IS THAT HE CONSTANTLY CHANGES TO MEET
THE NEEDS AND EXPECTATIONS OF CONTEMPORANEOUS SOCIETY.
THAT MAY BE A CLAIM THAT HAS BEEN MISSED FOR TARZAN
I WONDER IF AUDIENCES RELATE AS CLOSELY
TO OTHER HEROES AS THEY DO TO TARZAN.
WHY ARE WE BURROUGHS FANS SO PROTECTIVE OF THE CHARACTER?
. . . . AND SO ON TO THE FASHIONS OVER THE TIMES OF TARZAN’S EXISTENCE,
ESPECIALLY ON MOVIE AND TELEVISION SCREENS

MY APOLOGIES FOR THE INEPTITUDE OF DESCRIPTION
– ONLY JANE WAS 19, NOT HER PARTY
THE DESCRIPTIONS OF THE FILM TARZANS ARE TAKEN PRIMARILY
FROM ESSOE, WITH SOME FROM FURY; STILLS AND TEXT
. . . . THIS IS WHAT TARZAN AND JANE MIGHT HAVE LOOKED LIKE
WHILE TOOLING ABOUT THE ENGLISH COUNTRYSIDE
– OR AROUND BALTIMORE OR THAT PLACE IN WISCONSIN

NOTICE HOW REVEALING JANE’S COSTUME IS, AS WAS TARZAN’S, ESPECIALLY IN COMPARISON WITH DAY WEAR AND BATHING SUITS OF THE TIME |
