  1. Queer Genealogies across the Color Line and into Children’s Literature: Autobiographical Picture Books, Interraciality, and Gay Family Formation

    Abstract ; Life writing scholar Julia Watson critiques the practice of genealogy as “in every sense conservative” (300) because it traditionally charts and enshrines a family’s collective biography through biologistic, heteronormative, and segregated routes. My Americanist contribution, however, zooms in on a recent development of autobiographical works that establish narratives of origin beyond normative boundaries of race and heterosexual reproduction. A number of predominantly white queer parents of black adoptees have turned their family history into children’s read-along books as a medium for pedagogical empowerment that employs first-person narration in the presumable voice of the adoptee. In Arwen and Her Daddies (2009), for instance, Arwen invites the reader into a story of family formation with the following opening words: “Do you know how I and my Dads became a family?” My analysis understands these objects as verbal-visual origin stories which render intelligible a conversion from differently radicalized strangers into kin. I frame this mode of narration as ‘adoptee ventriloquism’ that might tell us more about adult desires of queers for familial recognition than about the needs of their adopted children.

    Abstract: This article addressed identity reconstruction through an analysis of two of the most prominent fictional works by one of the Chinese Indonesian young writers, Audrey Yu Jia Hui. In encompassing the idea of identity rewriting, I addressed Hui's second and third novels respectively, Mellow Yellow Drama (2014) and Mencari Sila Kelima (Searching for the Fifth Principle, 2015), through the post-structural concepts of Derrida's deconstruction, and also in relation to cultural studies views on identity. The works were analyzed through close-reading technique. The novels were published during the Reformation (Reformasi) era, where politics had served to be a profound aspect that directed the cultural identity and social attitude of the society. In a range of aspects, from narrative structure to their deeper themes, Hui’s literary works were found to draw on a distinguishable set of strategies which enabled Hui to establish her own identity as someone who was liberated, culturally accepted

    Abstract: This collection of essays by leading scholars of American literature and culture has emerged out of recent debates on the historical, geographical, symbolic, and cultural significance of the Atlantic, as well as new work in the area of Transatlantic Studies. In a series of fascinating essays the authors have produced diverse and innovative interventions in the field of Anglo-American literary relations. The authors discussed range from Gertrude Stein to Alfred North Whitehead, Charlotte Perkins Gilman to Sarah Grand, Henry James to George Eliot, Elizabeth Stoddard to Charlotte Bronte, Mark Twain to Walter Scott through to Djuna Barnes and Evelyn Waugh. Subjects discussed include Scottish-American literary relations, the Atlanticist dimension of Spiritualism, American interventions in the debate about Highland clearances, American slavery and British pastoralism. Table of contents: 1 Did Mark Twain bring down the temple on Scott’s shoulders? / Susan Manning 2 Stowe’s sunny memories

    Abstract: "Across the margins offers a comparative, theoretically informed analysis of the cultural formation of the Atlantic Archipelago. In its overall conception and in specific contributions (including an introductory essay), this collection demonstrates the benefits of working across the disciplines of history, geography, literature and cultural studies, but also presents new configurations of cultural forms hitherto associated with specifically national and sub-national literatures. The essays, from both established and new scholars working in the fields of British, Irish and comparative cultural studies, addresses broad questions raised by the interface between language, gender, sexuality and ethnicity in relation to marginal identities, but also includes specific genre-based case studies on contemporary poetry, fiction, drama, popular music and art. This format recognises the importance of specific concerns which emerge from different geographical locations, but also encourages movem

    Abstract: Marlen Haushofers Roman "Die Wand" kann als Robinsonade aufgefasst werden. Durch eine unüberwindliche Wand wird alles Leben vernichtet, nur die Protagonistin überlebt abgeschieden zusammen mit ihren Tieren in einem Alpental. Ihr Bericht, der den Roman bildet, informiert über die zum Überleben notwendige Arbeit, das Zusammenleben mit den Tieren und auch über ihr Leben früher. Es werden dabei irritierende Szenen und Bilder entworfen, die bei der Lektüre einen latenten Sinn spürbar machen, dem die psychoanalytisch-tiefenhermeneutische Interpretation nachspürt. Anknüpfend an das Leseerlebnis, an Irritationen und Assoziationen wird erschlossen, welche Konflikte die Szenen und Bilder bestimmen: Ablehnung und zugleich Identifikation mit den Tätern, liebende Sorge und Aggression, mütterliche Zuwendung und Gefühlsentzug, lebenserhaltende Aktivität und Depression. So wird ein Panorama von problematischen Lebensentwürfen sichtbar, das sich mit dem Begriff von Mütterlichkeit verbindet

    **A young man sets his own.tragic downfall in motion.with one simple but.horrifying act**..Set in St Petersburg in the second half.of the 19th Century, this is.Dostoevsky’s disturbing tale of.Raskolnikov, a highly intelligent, strikingly.handsome and thoroughly conceited.young student who, full of misplaced.theory and pathologically stirred by the.cruelty and injustice he sees around.him, decides to test his courage and.integrity by killing a miserable old.pawnbroker – whom he is sure.nobody will miss...Raskolnikov’s crime goes seriously.awry, and a wily investigator sets up a.complex series of traps, encounters.and conversations, playing with.Raskolnikov’s intelligence and.arrogance. Slowly, Raskolnikov.incriminates himself – and eventually.confesses...Dostoevsky’s Crime and Punishment is.the king of detective stories, the king of.murder stories and the king of.psychological thrillers. But, as an.undoubted masterpiece of world.literature, it goes far beyond the mere.mechanics of its extraordinary plot to.take on the tragic force of myth...Raskolnikov is the quintessential antihero – a Hamlet of his time. He is one.of the sexiest characters in literature.because, despite being a murderer, he.is young, impassioned, lonely and lost...This modern version of Crime and.Punishment, with its sexy young cast, is.a philosophical but deeply engaging.portrait of a man who seals his fate by.committing a single dire act of murder..Raskolnikov attempts to escape the.implications of his crime, but he is left.tormented and alienated from society.in this classic moral tale by one of.Russia’s most celebrated novelists..."Grim, paranoiac and involving.throughout." -- Guardian.."…tremendously effective at conveying.both the mood and moral import of.the novel.This is serious television, the.kind that the BBC is best at … All the.cast deserve praise, but the drama is.made by Simm and Ian McDiarmid's.Porfiry" -- The Times
