  • Conflicts in Appraising Lesbian Pulp Novels Julie Botnick IS 438A
    Pulp Frictions: Conflicts in Appraising Lesbian Pulp Novels Julie Botnick IS 438A: Seminar in Archival Appraisal June 14, 2018 Abstract The years between 1950 and 1965 were the “golden age” of lesbian pulp novels, which provided some of the only representations of lesbians in the mid-20th century. Thousands of these novels sit in plastic sleeves on shelves in special collections around the United States, val- ued for their evocative covers and campy marketing language. Devoid of accompanying docu- mentation which elaborates on the affective relationships lesbians had with these novels in their own time, the pulps are appraised for their value as visual objects rather than their role in peo- ple’s lives. The appraisal decisions made around these pulps are interdependent with irreversible decisions around access, exhibition, and preservation. I propose introducing affect as an appraisal criterion to build equitable collections which reflect full, holistic life experiences. This would do better justice to the women of the past who relied on these books for survival. !1 “Deep within me the joy spread… As my whole being convulsed in ecstasy I could feel Marilyn sharing my miracle.” From These Curious Pleasures by Sloan Britain, 1961 Lesbian pulp novels provided some of the only representations of lesbians in the mid-20th century. Cheaper than a pack of gum, these ephemeral novels were enjoyed in private and passed discreetly around, stuffed under mattresses, or tossed out with the trash. Today, thou- sands of these novels sit in plastic sleeves on shelves in special collections around the United States, valued for their evocative covers and campy marketing language.

Beyond Trashiness: The Sexual Language of 1970s Feminist Fiction By Meryl Altmani Abstract It is now commonplace to study the beginning of second wave US radical feminism as the history of a few important groups – mostly located in New York, Boston and Chicago – and the canon of a few influential polemical texts and anthologies. But how did feminism become a mass movement? To answer this question, we need to look also to popular mass-market forms that may have been less ideologically “pure” but that nonetheless carried the edge of feminist revolutionary thought into millions of homes. This article examines novels by Alix Kates Shulman, Marge Piercy and Erica Jong, all published in the early 1970s.

  • Ascribing Sexual Orientations
    Atlantis Vol. 13 No.2 Spring/Printemps 1988 Ascribing Sexual Orientations Christine Overall Queen's University ABSTRACT The goal of this paper is to suggest a somewhat different approach to the contemporary discussion of human sexual orientations. Instead of examining the nature of sexual orientation itself, it discusses the meanings of ascriptions of sexual orientation. (The discussion is confined to cases where the subject of ascription is female.) The paper begins with a survey of some prevalent ways of interpreting ascriptions of sexual orientation. It then comments on the variations in their meanings, and considers what the speaker is doing when uttering such an ascription. It concludes with some comments about an apparently anomalous sexual orientation, bisexuality. My interest in the ascription of sexual orientations what it is to be a lesbian (let alone a lesbian bisexual), and arose, in part, from three observations which I made over how one is to know whether any person (including one• the course of the past year.1 First, in my investigations of self) is one. ethical issues pertaining to reproductive technology, it became very clear that access to such processes as in vitro I was troubled, then, by both ontological and epistemo- fertilization and artificial insemination by donor is regu• logical problems: What is it to be lesbian or heterosexual lated and limited by means of the physician-enforced stip• or bisexual?

  • Jennifer Jones 17
    The Journal of the European Association of Studies on Australia, Vol.3. No.1 2012, ISSN 2013-6897 under the auspices of Coolabah Observatori: Centre d’Estudis Australians, Australian Studies Centre, Universitat de Barcelona Dancing with the Prime Minister Jennifer Jones Copyright © Jennifer Jones 2012. This text may be archived and redistributed both in electronic form and in hard copy, provided that the author and journal are properly cited and no fee is charged Abstract: When Ruby Langford Ginibi and her daughter Pearl prepared for the Foundation for Aboriginal Affairs Debutante Ball in 1968, they contributed to development of a significant new expression of Aboriginal identity and community belonging. Debutante balls were traditionally staged as a rite of passage that introduced a select group of young ladies to British high society. They went into decline in the UK in the late 1950s, under pressure from anti-establishment and sexual revolutions. The tradition remained popular in Australia, as the debutante ball had developed important status as fundraising events for local organisations. This article examines the history of Aboriginal girls ‘coming out’ at a debutante ball. While the inclusion of Aboriginal girls in debutante balls was encouraged as a means to achieve assimilation, proud celebration at all-Aboriginal events provoked controversy. Ruby Langford Ginibi’s reflection upon her daughter’s dance with the Australian Prime Minister at the 1968 Foundation for Aboriginal Affairs Debutante Ball is instructive. It explains how an exclusive, sexist British ritual has been transformed into a vital, inclusive Aboriginal rite of passage and challenges non-Aboriginal readers to re-evaluate their assessment of the tradition.

For the initial report submitted by the Government of India, see CEDAW/C/IND/1, which was considered by the Committee at its twenty- second session. 05-57216 (E) 090106 *0557216* CEDAW/C/IND/2-3 GOVERNMENT OF INDIA Second and Third periodic reports on the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women Introduction The Government of India has submitted its Initial Report on measures adopted to give effect to the provisions of the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) in August 1998.

  • Mapping the Impact of Gender Equality Provisions and Constitutionmaking
    Mapping the Impact of Gender Equality Provisions and Constitutionmaking STUDENT WORKING PAPERS Penn Law Seminar on International Women’s Human Rights taught by Rangita de Silva de Alwis, Associate Dean of International Programs Report presented to UN Women and the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights on May 6, 2016 MAPPING THE IMPACT OF GENDER EQUALITY PROVISIONS IN CONSTITUTIONS IN EMERGING DEMOCRACIES AND POST- CONFLICT INTRODUCTION The Convention on the Elimination of Discrimination of All Forms Against Women (CEDAW) and Security Council Resolution 1325 inspired us to examine the impact of constitutional gender equality provisions on women’s participation and legal protection. The United Nations General Assembly passed the CEDAW in 1979, and, since then, it has seen almost universal acceptance. The CEDAW brought and continues to bring critical attention to the importance of women’s international human rights and provides a framework for states to use in formulating national and local legislation that can and will protect those rights. Additionally, the Security Council Resolution 1325, passed in 2000, rallied all member states to recommit to bringing more women to the table in order to create, prevent, and ensure long lasting peace and tranquility. The Resolution called for women’s participation and protection to be at the forefront of each and every national and international agenda. Resolution 1325 led to subsequent resolutions, including 1820 and 2122, all of which advance women’s empowerment at the international level, and, with a top-down approach, aim to improve the lives of women all around the world. However, in order to have the most significant impact, the CEDAW and Resolution 1325 must be implemented domestically.

El pueblo Shipibo es resultado de la fusión cultural de varias etnias. El kené o kewe son dibujos representativos en los que las líneas shipibas representan un entra - mado de ideas, de conectividades comunicativas ecosistémicas y sensoriales, la representación/ composición visual de su cosmovisión como resultado de la contemplación y la vivencia en la naturaleza como un ser más. Esta conexión de consciencia con el entorno y la espiritualidad queda representada en el cruce de líneas y en los nodos de las que parten, una comunicación integral.
