Bringing together original historical research on the radical press and close readings of Yiddish avant-garde poetry by Moyshe-Leyb Halpern, Peretz Markish, Yankev Glatshteyn, and others, I show that the development of anarchist modernism was both a transnational literary trend and a complex worldview. My research draws from hitherto unread material in international archives to document the world of the Yiddish anarchist press and assess the scope of its literary influence. The dissertation’s theoretical framework is informed by diaspora studies, gender studies, and translation theory, to which I introduce anarchist diasporism as a new term.

  • 'I Cannot Accept What I Have Not Done': Storytelling, Gender and Transitional Justice
    ‘I cannot accept what I have not done’: Storytelling, Gender and Transitional Justice ERIN BAINES AND BETH STEWART Liu Institute for Global Issues University of British Columbia (UBC) 6476 NW Marine Drive Vancouver, British Columbia, V6T 2T6 [email protected] Downloaded from [email protected] Abstract Storytelling can be a process of seeking social equilibrium after violence. We http://jhrp.oxfordjournals.org/ examine this proposition through the stories of Ajok, an Acholi woman who was abducted by the rebel group, the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA) in northern Uganda and who was forced into marriage and motherhood. We consider how her stories contest discrimination by her neighbours and family since her return, creatively reinterpreting the past to defend her innocence and moral character throughout the war and to defend her rightful place in present society as an Acholi woman and mother. The article concludes by reflecting on the value of locally based and culturally relevant storytelling for survivors in the field and practice of transitional justice. at Georgetown University on August 6, 2012 Keywords: Acholi; armed conflict; forced marriage; northern Uganda; sexual and gender based violence; transitional justice Introduction Following the conclusion of a more than 20-year-old war in northern Uganda, an uneasy tension exists amongst survivors.1 The war was charac- terized by the mass abduction and forced recruitment of an estimated 54,000 to 75,000 people (Pham et al., 2008). The Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA) are infamous for their brutal training of young boys and girls, for forcing them to kill or harm others and for subjecting ‘new recruits’ to exhausting labour and unforgiving beatings in an effort to create loyal and obedient followers (Blattman and Annan, 2010).

Sicut mater, ita et filia eius. Acknowledgements I would like to thank Dr. Ayelet Haimson Lushkov and Dr. Lesley Dean-Jones for their support and guidance. v Abstract Pathology and Pregnancy: Constructions of Female Difference in Plautus’ Amphitruo Grace Drake Gibson, MA The University of Texas at Austin, 2019 Supervisor: Ayelet Haimson Lushkov Plautus’ Amphitruo departs from Roman theatrical precedent by combining tragic convention with comic elements, creating the new genre of “tragicomedy.” Also unprecedented is the play’s presentation of a pregnant character on stage: as Amphitruo, Alcumena, and the enslaved Sosia struggle to orient themselves amidst the confusion caused by Jupiter and Mercury, Alcumena also prepares for the birth of a child by her husband and, unbeknownst to her, the birth of Hercules by Jupiter. I examine the way that her visible and oft-referenced pregnancy heightens the dramatic thrust of the tragicomedy, arguing that Alcumena’s otherness, emphasized visually and thematically by her pregnancy, serves as a destabilizing force which contributes both to the sense of comedic befuddlement and to the narrative’s potentially tragic stakes.

I am a Shropshire lad, born in Shrewsbury. “Shropshire born, Shropshire bred, strong in the body, thick in the head”. That’s a nice bit of poetry to launch us! I was born as an only child to parents who divorced when I was two years old, and I was really brought up by my grandparents. Because I was an only child stuck in the middle of sheep- laden fields, I developed an inner, imaginative life to get me through the days. I began to be interested in what you might call the inner life, who I am. I was very attracted to nature; in Shropshire there are beautiful landscapes. Then, one day, I just walked into a church. I was eleven years old, my family were not religious at all, and I can still smell the church now. It was obviously Harvest Festival. I went into this tiny church, and there were a few people dotted around and this man came out of a room in bright green. He started to say things, and I didn’t understand a word of it, but I was haunted by its beauty.

    CHANGING BODIES, CHANGING LIVES: URBAN MIDDLE CLASS MALAY WOMEN‟S EXPERIENCES OF MENOPAUSE Nurazzura Mohamad Diah B. HSc. (Honours) & M. HSc in Sociology and Anthropology International Islamic University Malaysia This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The University of Western Australia School of Social and Cultural Studies Discipline of Anthropology & Sociology 2010 Dedication I dedicate my noble work to Mbah, Nyai and Mak who have undergone the ‘silent passage’ with audacity Abstract Menopause is a time of life where women make the transition from a reproductive stage to a non-reproductive stage. Although it is biologically universal, menopausal experiences are not homogeneous in nature and there have been significant differences reported by women within and across cultures. The study of menopause is pertinent in anthropology because as Lock (1998) contended, how menopause is seen, experienced and managed, rests upon social and cultural factors. The purpose of this thesis is to gain an in-depth understanding of the menopausal experiences of urban middle class Malay women who, for the most part, are formally educated and work in professional paid jobs. The research addresses how these women manage their changing bodies and attribute meaning to the experience of menopause. By considering how families respond to the women during this time, as well as how menopause is cast within an increasingly medicalised and media oriented discourse, the thesis proposes that menopause in Malay society today creates specific challenges for ageing women. Using an ethnographic approach, the thesis investigates the various factors that contribute to Malay women‟s understanding of menopause.
