    ALL THE TIME IN THE WORLD A written creative work submitted to the faculty of San Francisco State University In partial fulfillment of The Requirements for 2 6 The Degree 201C -M333 V • X Master of Fine Arts In Creative Writing by Jane Marie McDermott San Francisco, California January 2016 Copyright by Jane Marie McDermott 2016 CERTIFICATION OF APPROVAL I certify that I have read All the Time in the World by Jane Marie McDermott, and that in my opinion this work meets the criteria for approving a written work submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree: Master of Fine Arts: Creative Writing at San Francisco State University. Chanan Tigay \ Asst. Professor of Creative Writing ALL THE TIME IN THE WORLD. Jane Marie McDermott San Francisco, California 2016 All the Time in the World is the story of gay young people coming to San Francisco in the 1970s and what happens to them in the course of thirty years. Additionally, the novel tells the stories of the people they meet along-the way - a lesbian mother, a World War II veteran, a drag queen - people who never considered that they even had a story to tell until they began to tell it. In the end, All the Time in the World documents a remarkable era in gay history and serves as a testament to the galvanizing effects of love and loss and the enduring power of friendship. I certify that the Annotation is a correct representation of the content of this written creative work. Date ACKNOWLEDGMENT Thanks to everyone in the San Francisco State University MFA Creative Writing Program - you rock! I would particularly like to give shout out to Nona Caspers, Chanan Tigay, Toni Morosovich, Barbara Eastman, and Katherine Kwik.

    2004/2009 Primeira Edição Rio de Janeiro 2017 Roberta Sá 19/01/2009 Foto Lucíola Villela EXTRA / Agência O Globo Sumário 6 Circo Voador 8.Apresentação 21.Linha do Tempo/ Coleção de MiniDV 2004/2009 7 Apresentação Depois de mais de sete anos fechado, o Circo 13/07/2004 Voador foi reinaugurado no dia 22 de julho de Foto Michel Filho 2004. Os anos entre o fechamento e a reabertura Agência O Globo foram de muita militância cultural, política e judicial, num movimento que reuniu pessoas da classe artística e políticos comprometidos com as causas culturais. Vencedor de uma ação popular, o Circo Voador ganhou o direito de voltar ao funcionamento, e a prefeitura do Rio de Janeiro ‒ que havia demolido o arcabouço anterior ‒ foi obrigada a construir uma nova estrutura para a casa. Com uma nova arquitetura, futurista e mais atenta às questões acústicas inerentes a uma casa de shows, o Circo retomou as atividades no segundo semestre de 2004 e segue ininterruptamente oferecendo opções de diversão, alegria e formação artística ao público do Rio e a todos os amantes de música e arte em geral. 8 Circo Voador Apresentação Uma característica do Acervo Circo Voador pós-reabertura é que a grande maioria dos eventos tem registro filmado. Ao contrário do período 1982-1996, que conta com uma cobertura significativa mas relativamente pequena (menos de 15% dos shows filmados), após 2004 temos mais de 95% dos eventos registrados em vídeo. O formato do período que este catálogo abrange, que vai de 2004 a 2009, é a fita MiniDV, extremamente popular à época por sua relação custo-benefício e pela resolução de imagem sensivelmente melhor do que outros formatos profissionais e semiprofissionais.

Kasvinsky, Dean, School of Graduate Studies and Research Date © A. Murray 2011 ABSTRACT This thesis explores the universal journey of self discovery against the specific backdrop of the south coast of England where the narrator, an American woman in her early twenties, lives and works as a barmaid with her female travel companion. Aside from outlining the journey from outsider to insider within a particular cultural context, the thesis seeks to understand the implications of a defining friendship that ultimately fails, the ways a young life is shaped through travel and loss, and the sacrifices a person makes when choosing a place to call home. The thesis follows the narrator from her initial departure for England at the age of twenty-two through to her final return to Ohio at the age of twenty-seven, during which time the friendship with the travel companion is dissolved and the narrator becomes a wife and a mother.

  • Of Women's Cricket
    Confronting the ‘whiteness’ of women’s cricket: Excavating Hidden Truths and Knowledge to make sense of non-white women’s experiences in cricket Introduction Many feminist scholars have noted that ‘sport history remains the history of man’s involvement in sport’ (Vertinsky, 1994: 1; Osborne and Skillen, 2010); yet the extent to which sports history - particularly British sports history - continues to privilege a history of ‘whiteness’ by failing to interrogate racist and gendered ideologies is even more troubling. The absence of documented research on women’s historical experiences in sport exposes both the masculinisation of the sport, as well as the maleness of this documented history. As van Ingen (2013: 106) states when investigating the history of women’s boxing: The lack of critical and nuanced historical inquiry on women’s boxing history is not solely the fault of poor historical sources. Rather, scholars have paid insufficient attention to how gender, racism, and white privilege have obscured various accounts of history within women’s boxing. However, the absence of historical research on non-white1 women is even more problematic, and more pervasive when it comes to the sport of cricket. Despite a wealth of research into ‘race’, racism and the imperial dimensions of cricket - to the extent that Jack Williams has stated that ‘[r]ace was at the heart of cricket throughout the twentieth century’ (Williams, 2001) - almost all of this literature has focused entirely on the men’s game. Experiences of female cricketers have either been sidelined or worse still, simply ignored. Indeed the whiteness and maleness of historical analyses of cricket in 20th-century Britain have formed the major rationale behind my own research.
