Affect, Embodiment, and Ethics in Narratives of Sexual Abuse
Affect, Embodiment, and Ethics in Narratives of Sexual Abuse Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Lindsay A. Martin, M.A. Graduate Program in English The Ohio State University 2016 Dissertation Committee: James Phelan, Advisor Robyn Warhol, Co-Advisor Brian McHale Copyright by Lindsay A. Martin 2016 Abstract In the field of rhetorical narrative theory, the study of affect has been oft- acknowledged but remains undervalued. Even as affect studies has burgeoned in other fields, affect in narrative theory continues to be discussed either as a product of ethical judgments or as a purely physical response that scientific studies can measure. Affect, Embodiment, and Ethics in Narratives of Sexual Abuse expands the vocabulary for affect in narrative theory, in particular focusing on expanding our awareness of the varying potential relationships between ethical judgments and affective dynamics. Turning to narratives that represent sexual abuse and taboo violation in late-twentieth-century American literature—Vladimir Nabokov’s Lolita, Kathryn Harrison’s memoir The Kiss, and Alexander Chee’s Edinburgh—I demonstrate that affective dynamics have a variety of possible relationships with the negative ethical judgments encouraged against the abuser figures and/or taboo violators. Specifically, I argue that in order to attend to affect as it appears in narratives of sexual abuse, we must attend to “embodiment”: the character’s shifting experiences of how closely tied he or she feels mind and body to be. I call this experiential embodiment and chart it by examining representation of characters’ emotions, trauma, and bodily experience. -

Where Is Al-Qaida Going? by Anne Stenersen
PERSPECTIVES ON TERRORISM Volume 11, Issue 6 Articles Thirty Years after its Foundation – Where is al-Qaida Going? by Anne Stenersen Abstract This article presents a framework for understanding al-Qaida, based on a new reading of its thirty-year history. Al-Qaida today is commonly labelled a ‘global insurgency’ or ‘global franchise.’ However, these labels are not sufficient if we want to understand what kind of threat al-Qaida poses to the West. Al-Qaida is better described as a revolutionary vanguard, engaged in a perpetual struggle to further its Salafi-jihadi ideology. Its strategy is flexible and opportunistic, and the organization uses a range of tools associated with both state and non-state actors. In the future al-Qaida is likely to treat international terrorist planning, and support to local insurgencies in the Muslim world, as two separate activities. International terrorism is currently not a prioritised strategy of al-Qaida, but it is likely to be so in the future, given that it manages to re-build its external operations capability. Keywords: Al-Qaida, terrorism, insurgency, strategy, external operations Introduction The status and strength of al-Qaida (AQ) are the subject of an ongoing debate. [1] There are two opposite and irreconcilable views in this debate: The first is that al-Qaida is strong and cannot be discounted. The other is that al-Qaida is in decline. [2] Those who suggest al-Qaida is strong, tend to emphasise the size and number of al-Qaida’s affiliates, especially in Syria, Yemen and Somalia; they also point to the rise of new leaders, in particular bin Laden’s son Hamza. -
Comparing the Dutch and British Maritime Technologies During the Napoleonic Era (1792–1815)
Technology and Empire: Comparing the Dutch and British Maritime Technologies during the Napoleonic Era (1792–1815) By Ivor Mollema December, 2015 Director of Thesis: Dr. Lynn Harris Major Department: History The two ships, Bato (1806) and Brunswick (1805) wrecked in Simons Bay, South Africa, provide an opportunity to compare British and Dutch maritime technologies during the Napoleonic Era (1792–1815). The former was a Dutch 74-gun ship of the line and the latter a British East Indiaman. Their remains reveal pertinent information about the maritime technologies available to each European power. Industrial capacity and advanced metal working played a significant role in ship construction initiatives of that period, while the dwindling timber supplies forced invention of new technologies. Imperial efforts during the Napoleonic Era relied on naval power. Maritime technologies dictated imperial strategy as ships were deployed to expand or maintain colonial empires. Naval theorists place the strategy into a wider spectrum and the analysis of the material culture complements further understanding of sea power. The study also recommends management options to preserve the archaeological sites for future study and to showcase for heritage tourism.

Scholar-Practitioner Q & a
174 Literary Journalism Studies, Vol. 10, No. 1, Spring 2018 175 Scholar-Practitioner Q & A . Derivative Sport: The Journalistic Legacy of David Foster Wallace Josh Roiland University of Maine, United States Abstract: The late writer David Foster Wallace is best known as the au- thor of the 1,079-page novel Infinite Jest. But he also produced some of the most well known pieces of magazine journalism throughout the 1990s and 2000s. He was a three-time finalist for the National Magazine Award, winning once in 2001 for his Rolling Stone profile of Senator John McCain’s presidential campaign, “The Weasel, Twelve Monkeys, and the Shrub.” Be- cause of his distinct voice, ability to blend high and low culture, and inno- vative use of footnotes, Wallace cast a long shadow of influence on a genera- David Foster Wallace giving a reading at All Saints Church, San Francisco, 2006. tion of literary journalists. In order to better understand the impact Wallace Image by Steve Rhodes. Wikimedia Commons. had on contemporary magazine writers, I spoke to his former editors, Colin Harrison and Joel Lovell, as well as current writers Maria Bustillos, Leslie Jamison, Michelle Orange, Jeff Sharlet, and John Jeremiah Sullivan about what it was like to work with him and how he influenced their own work. I’ve compiled those interviews into a kind of roundtable-style discussion that tells the story of Wallace and his contributions to literary journalism in the United States.

The Canterbury Association
The Canterbury Association (1848-1852): A Study of Its Members’ Connections By the Reverend Michael Blain Note: This is a revised edition prepared during 2019, of material included in the book published in 2000 by the archives committee of the Anglican diocese of Christchurch to mark the 150th anniversary of the Canterbury settlement. In 1850 the first Canterbury Association ships sailed into the new settlement of Lyttelton, New Zealand. From that fulcrum year I have examined the lives of the eighty-four members of the Canterbury Association. Backwards into their origins, and forwards in their subsequent careers. I looked for connections. The story of the Association’s plans and the settlement of colonial Canterbury has been told often enough. (For instance, see A History of Canterbury volume 1, pp135-233, edited James Hight and CR Straubel.) Names and titles of many of these men still feature in the Canterbury landscape as mountains, lakes, and rivers. But who were the people? What brought these eighty-four together between the initial meeting on 27 March 1848 and the close of their operations in September 1852? What were the connections between them? In November 1847 Edward Gibbon Wakefield had convinced an idealistic young Irishman John Robert Godley that in partnership they could put together the best of all emigration plans. Wakefield’s experience, and Godley’s contacts brought together an association to promote a special colony in New Zealand, an English society free of industrial slums and revolutionary spirit, an ideal English society sustained by an ideal church of England. Each member of these eighty-four members has his biographical entry. -

Making War on Terrorists— Reflections on Harming the Innocent*
The Journal of Political Philosophy Making War on Terrorists— Reflections on Harming the Innocent* Thomas Pogge Philosophy, Yale University, Australian National University and University of Oslo HE countries of the developed West are fighting a war on terror. More Taccurately: the governments of some of these countries are conducting a war against terrorists. This war effort was stepped up dramatically after the terrorist attack of September 11, 2001, which killed about 3,000 people in New York, Virginia, and Pennsylvania. The most notable attack until then was the car bomb attack on the US embassies in Dar es Salaam and Nairobi of August 7, 1998, which killed about 257 people including 12 US citizens. Since the September 11 attack, 202 people, including 88 Australians, were killed in Kuta on the Indonesian island of Bali on October 12, 2002; some 191 people were killed in the Madrid bombing of March 11, 2004; and the terrorist attack of July 7, 2005, in London killed 52 people. Why wage war against these terrorists? Offhand, one might think that such a grand response to terrorism is undeserved. This thought is supported by comparisons with other threats to our life and well-being—cardiovascular disease and cancer, for instance, annually kill some 250,000 and 150,000 people, respectively,intheUKalone(940,000and560,000intheUS),whiletrafficaccidents kill over 3,000 each year (43,000 in the US). In the UK, only about one per 10,000 deaths in 2005 was due to terrorism. And even in the US in 2001, the corresponding ratio was about one in 750, that is, 0.13 percent. -
