The Trouble with Servants 148 Conclusion 195 Index 207 This page intentionally left blank Preface First licensed for production in 1626 and staged repeatedly over the years, John Fletcher’s The Noble Gentleman∞ isn’t a magnificent literary achievement. But it’s plenty interesting for my purposes. Marine, the not- quite-noble gentleman of the title, is tired of loitering at court, an activity his wife adores. Listen to Marine’s soliloquy as he screws up his courage to tell his wife that they’re abandoning city life: Why what an Asse was I that such a thing As a wife is could rule me? Know not I That woman was created for the man, That her desires, nay all her thoughts should be As his are? is my sense restor’d at length? Now she shall know, that which she should desire, She hath a husband that can govern her, If her desires leades me against my will. Sounding in the book of Genesis, the passage asserts a classic justification for male dominance. It’s unblushing in describing that dominance as gover- nance. Look what happens when his wife battles back.≤ Horrified, she insists 1. [John Fletcher], The Noble Gentleman, ed. L. A. Beaurline, in The Dramatic Works in the Beaumont and Fletcher Canon, ed.

Compare the trajectory of Lord Wronglove’s blustering in Colley Cibber, The Lady’s Last Stake: or, The Wife’s Resentment, 3rd ed. (London, 1736). ix x preface that he can’t back out now, when all the work of cultivating the favor of the court is about to bear fruit. He’s unmoved: Gentleman. Wife talke no more, your Retoricke comes too late, I am inflixable; and how dere you Adventure to direct my course of life? Was not the husband made to rule the wife? Lady. ’Tis true, but where the man doth misse his way, It is the womans part to set him right; So Fathers have a power to guide their Sonnes In all their courses, yet you oft have seene Poore litle children that have both their eyes Lead their blind Fathers. Gentleman [aside]. She has a plaguy witt.— I say you’r but a little piece of man. Lady. But such a peice, as being tane away, Man cannot last: the fairest and tallest ship, That ever saild, is by a little peice Of the same wood, steerd right, and turnd about. Gentleman [aside]. ’Tis true she sayes, her answers stand with reason. That ‘‘little peice of man,’’ Eve from Adam’s rib, continues the appeal to Genesis. Not that his wife meekly submits to scripture’s authority. Instead, she blithely swaps rudder for rib and plots to undo her husband’s newfound resolution. Amusingly, she has her disguised confederates shower phony aristocratic titles on him. Stunned, in the midst of changing his ‘‘grave and thrifty habit’’ for clothes suiting his apparent new station as duke, Marine kneels to his wife: And here in token that all strife shall end ’Twixt thee and me, I let my drawers fall And to thy hands I do deliver them: From this time forth my wife shall wear the breeches.≥ Her servant vigorously approves the ribald ceremony: ‘‘An honourable com- position.’’ Ignominiously stripped of his fictive titles, the Gentleman addresses the 3. Compare the women’s song, with men eavesdropping, in The Woman’s Prize [1646], in Bowers et al., Dramatic Works in the Beaumont and Fletcher Canon, 4:54, and see in the same collection Rule a Wife and Have a Wife [1624], 6:521. preface xi audience: ‘‘Be warned all ye Peers, and by my fall, / Hereafter learn to let your wives rule all.’’ Picture a 1626 audience chuckling at a clown of a husband who in wink- ing asides assures them that women should rule. Should women wear the breeches? (The phrase appears in a book of sayings from the same year as Fletcher’s play. It would still be ricocheting around England some two cen- turies later.)∂ I don’t mean to suggest that Fletcher intends to press any such moral. Nor do I mean to suggest that he’s endorsing male dominance. I’m concerned not with Fletcher’s intentions, but with what contemporary audi- ences and readers could and would make of his work. Ponder the gentleman’s asides, snipped out of the main line of dramatic action and presented as bracketed confidences. They’re not bombshells of bold radicalism exploding on the playgoers’ dazed imaginations. They’re reminders of everyday plati- tudes, likely to provoke wry snickering and rueful wincing. The Gentleman may need to strike an imperious stance with his wife to propel the plot, but he acknowledges that she’s got the better of the argument, indeed that she ought to rule. He knows his claims of authority ring hollow. If chortling, not chagrin, is in order, we have a husband puerile in his high-handed assertion of dominance, what helps make him the butt of an extended joke. That’s a glimpse of the sort of evidence I’ll canvass in this book. I hope to conjure up a social world full of ornery, funny, sickening, and lethal contro- versies about gender, patriarchy, misogyny, public and private, and more. After visiting a character whose romantic fantasies are punctured and the ensuing spirited debate about sexual disgust, I cheerfully demolish two views that have enjoyed some currency. First: people back then imagined that male power was natural or necessary, part of the woodwork of the world, not a contingent social practice that could be reformed or even abolished. Second: the public/private distinction was gendered—so public man, private woman —and that explains the political subordination of women. Whether you be- lieve these claims, put starkly or subtly, or already know they’re patently misguided will depend in part on your disciplinary interests. Regardless, my demolition permits me also to sharpen some concepts. I want to clarify what we might mean in invoking natural or essentialized, public and private. Having cleared the ground, I move to my constructive agenda. I explain what we 4. H[enry] P[arrot], Cvres for the Itch (London, 1626), sig. E4 verso; Anna Clark, The Struggle for the Breeches: Gender and the Making of the English Working Class (Berkeley: University of California Press, 1995). xii preface might mean—and what the early modern English did mean—in casting the household as political. I argue too that conflict isn’t the opposite of social order. To cash out these abstract positions, I reconstruct contemporary strug- gles over domestic servants. Throughout, I rely on long-standing convictions, which I’ll put briefly and polemically. I’m heartened to know that these convictions are pedestrian in many fields. Not, alas, in political theory. So: beneath the austere vistas of the likes of Hobbes and Locke are plenty of smart and savvy sources of great interest in their own right, not simply for helping us get a fix on what is linguistically or conceptually innovative in canonical texts. I don’t mean the allegedly lesser lights of, say, Mandeville or Swift. I mean popular songs, jokes, sermons, pamphlets, diaries, letters, and more. And only mischief follows in the wake of the distinction between social and intellectual history, a hangover of a bad nineteenth-century debate about the ideal and material aspects of social life. (There’s still a lot to learn from Hegel and Marx, but not that.) The only decent argument for the primacy of either is the manifest inadequacy of the other. Then there are the endless refinements: so for instance should intellectual historians pursue concepts or ideas or texts or languages or discourses or epistemes or . ? But if these are refinements of an unhelpful distinction, they’re not worth pursuing. We can strive for better than filigreed confusion. Imagine stumbling on a lost tribe of academics who’d adopted this peculiar division of labor: some studied objects smaller than six cubic inches, some larger. You’d act faintly embarrassed if someone demanded that you swear allegiance to one side and you’d try to change the subject.

  • We're Taking Africa to the World
    “We’re Taking Africa to the World”: Commercial Self- fashioning as a Vehicle for Collective Aspirations in the 21st Century JAANA SERRES “It’s finally cool to be an ‘African’” (Kaumbutho). This 2017 blog post by Kenyan poet Kimathi Kaumbutho echoed the performative claims heard throughout the African middle class in the wake of the changing narrative about “Africa,” from “The hopeless continent” (The Economist 2000) to “Africa rising” (The Economist 2011). Elements and signs of “Africanness” have indeed been increasingly featured in “global” popular culture, from clothing lines to films, and even the practice of capitalism is rebranded with “African traditional principles” through the Africapitalist and Ubuntu “economic philosophies.” But as suggested by Kaumbutho’s list of achievements “Africans can take pride in,” one cultural medium has proven particularly instrumental to this new wave of positive identification with “Africa”: Nigerian music. As Nigeria was arguably entering a post-oil era in the 2010s (Burns and Owen), its renewed popular music industry benefitted from the development of digital technology and the expression of corporate interest by telecom companies, retail brands, and foreign-educated young professionals, making it an exemplary manifestation of a new pan-Africanism founded on neoliberal aspirations (Shipley Living the Hiplife). Global professional services firm PwC announced that total revenue for Nigeria’s entertainment and media industry was expected to grow to US$8.1 billion in 2019, calling it the “fastest-expanding major market globally” (Oxford Business Group). However, only a very small share of this revenue occurs from the actual sale of cultural products (PwC 22).

  • Davido-Bio-November-2019.Pdf
    DAVIDO Nearing the close of 2019, it’s hard for many to say they haven’t heard the name Davido, born David Adedeji Adeleke. The year marks another fete of huge achievements, from opening the year with a sold out date at London’s O2 Arena – making him the first solo African artist to do this – to creating mass hysteria across America with his 2018 single “Fall” which has gone on to have the longest run of an Afrobeats single on the Billboard charts, and saw it peak across Shazam as one of the most searched songs in the United States, and now gears up to release his second album A Good Time, all before a circuit of Christmas shows across Africa. If anything has framed where Davido currently is, it would his “childhood.” The youngest of five, growing up with his parents in Lagos, Nigeria, he was “exposed” to the world. Across summer breaks he would travel to visit his siblings in London and Atlanta, the latter being home to some of the artists that he today he can call his good friends – YoungThug, Gunna, Lil Baby – and the home to some of his favorite rappers growing up – Ludacris, Nelly – the sounds of noughties Hip Hop that he “loved.” It was most likely these trips that would drive a love for music that reflected global ambition. This exposure to the world, would in turn give Davido the opportunity to share with his University of Alabama friends music from Nigeria, that he knew if “given a chance” would go global.

  • Master Thesis Project Artificial Intelligence Adaptation in Video
    Master Thesis Project Artificial Intelligence Adaptation in Video Games Author: Anastasiia Zhadan Supervisor: Aris Alissandrakis Examiner: Welf Löwe Reader: Narges Khakpour Semester: VT 2018 Course Code: 4DV50E Subject: Computer Science Abstract One of the most important features of a (computer) game that makes it mem- orable is an ability to bring a sense of engagement. This can be achieved in numerous ways, but the most major part is a challenge, often provided by in-game enemies and their ability to adapt towards the human player. How- ever, adaptability is not very common in games. Throughout this thesis work, aspects of the game control systems that can be improved in order to be adapt- able were studied. Based on the results gained from the study of the literature related to artificial intelligence in games, a classification of games was de- veloped for grouping the games by the complexity of the control systems and their ability to adapt different aspects of enemies behavior including individual and group behavior. It appeared that only 33% of the games can not be con- sidered adaptable. This classification was then used to analyze the popularity of games regarding their challenge complexity. Analysis revealed that simple, familiar behavior is more welcomed by players. However, highly adaptable games have got competitively high scores and excellent reviews from game critics and reviewers, proving that adaptability in games deserves further re- search. Keywords: artificial intelligence in games, adaptability in games, non-player character adaptation, challenge Preface Computer games have become an interest for me not so long ago, but since then they have turned almost into a true passion.
