摘要

This thesis used visual rhetoric and analytic induction coupled with cultural interpretation of hermeneutic theory to analyze 42 images of cowgirls and ethnic minorities from 1890 through 2003. This study attempted to answer three questions: (1) How has the role of women evolved in rodeo?; (2) What is the role of ethnic minorities in rodeo today?; and (3) Why are women and ethnic minorities in the roles they are today? Analytic induction established four categories that followed the literature review; however, within category four, a fifth category was discovered. The results of the study found that both cowgirls and ethnic minorities originally were and remain today in subordinate positions within mainstream rodeo. Their roles are still controlled by the white patriarchal culture. Overall, this thesis established that the roles of cowgirls (white and ethnic minority) in mainstream rodeo are as complicated by gender and race as they were during the early years of rodeo.;The results showed the role of the cowgirl moving from somewhat of an "equality" stance to the "sex kitten" role. Although a small movement has recently begun with a return to the "equality" role for cowgirls. Cowgirls are still viewed primarily as the barrel racer or the rodeo queen. They are given little significance within the actual competition of rodeo. The role of ethnic minority cowboys and cowgirls was shaped by their exclusion from competition through Jim Crow laws. Glaring gaps in rodeo history has been found as it concerns ethnic minority cowgirls: women have been almost completely erased from rodeo history. In present day rodeo, ethnic minority cowboys are the faces that are most predominant in professional mainstream rodeo when a person of color is represented. Ethnic minority cowgirls, however, are not visually represented in mainstream rodeo today. This researcher found that since no ethnic minority women were visually represented within categories three though five, this lacuna indicates that ethnic minority women's voices have been lost and, unfortunately, have played little significance in the popular understanding of rodeo as whole.

(3)为什么妇女和少数族裔担任当今的角色?归纳分析建立了四个类别,随后进行了文献综述。然而,在第四类中,发现了第五类。研究结果发现,女牛仔和少数族裔本来都是,现在仍然在主流牛仔竞技场中处于从属地位。他们的角色仍然受白人宗法文化的控制。总体而言,本论文确定了牛仔竞技表演中白人和少数民族女牛仔的角色与牛仔竞技早期一样受到性别和种族的影响。;结果表明,女牛仔的角色从某种程度上转变为以“平等”的姿态来扮演“性小猫”的角色。尽管最近发生了小规模运动,但现在开始回归女牛仔的“平等”角色。女牛仔仍然主要被视为桶装赛车手或牛仔女王。在竞技比赛中,它们几乎没有什么意义。少数族裔牛仔和女牛仔的角色是由吉姆·克劳(Jim Crow)法律排除在竞争之外而形成的。在牛仔历史上,由于涉及少数族裔女牛仔,人们发现了明显的差距:牛仔历史上几乎完全抹掉了妇女。在当今的牛仔竞技表演中,当有色人种代表时,少数民族牛仔是专业主流牛仔竞技中最主要的面孔。但是,当今主流牛仔竞技表演中并未以少数民族女牛仔的形象呈现出来。这位研究人员发现,由于在三到五类中没有少数民族女性的视觉代表,这一缺陷表明少数民族女性的声音已经消失,而且不幸的是,对于整个牛仔竞技表演的普遍理解没有多大意义。
