Many people at the university contributed time, money, and encouragement to support both the original conference and the volume which is based on it. So we have a lot ofpeople to thank. The conference and this book benefited alike from the generous sup­ port of the Dean of the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts, and the Office of the Vice President for Research at the University of Michi­ gan. The conference was also supported by the Associate Dean for Interdis­ ciplinary Initiatives at the Rackham Graduate School, the Department of English Language and Literature, the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures, the Program in Comparative Literature, and the Program in Women’s Studies. Two additional sponsors deserve our warm gratitude. Under the directorship of Daniel Herwitz, the Institute for the Humanities embraced the happy accident ofour being fellows in 2002-2003 to provide the conference with exceptional administrative assistance; Eliza Woodford, in particular, responded to our constant requests with energy, gracious­ ness, and fortitude. In addition to financiaUy unde^mting the conference, the Institute for Research on Women and Gender has provided an institu­ tional home for the Lesbian-Gay-^eer Research Initiative, the unit at the University that sponsored the conference, as weU as a grant for the prepara­ tion of the manuscript of this volume. We particularly thank Colin Johnson and Abby Stewart for helping to bring LGQRI into being, and Carol Boyd and Peggy Bums for their ongoing support of this program area. Suraj Patel, our conference coordinator, was indefatigable in his enthu­ siasm, dedication, insight, and sensitivity to participants' needs; we thank him for taking this project on so entirely and so competently while com­ pleting his senior year at the University of Michigan. For visual cnhance- ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ment of our project, we would like to thank Brian Hussey and Jayne Hamil­ ton, as well as Patrick Moore, Brennan Gerard, and Catherine Opie. We are particularly grateful to Tim Retzloff and Julie Herrada, who created a li­ brary installation from the Labadie Collection; Holly Hughes, for associ­ ating her performance piece, “After a Fashion,” with the conference; and Gayle Rubin, for DJing the final dance at the conference. Staff at the Women's Studies Program provided much valued assis­ tance in helping with manuscript preparation; we would particularly like to thank SheUey Shock and Sandra VaUie. We would also like to thank Chad Thomas, Lamont Egle, Laura Ambrose, Marjorie Rubright, and Dashini Jeyathurai for help with many aspects of the manuscript. It has been a pleasure to work with the University of Chicago Press. We extend our special appreciation to Doug Mitchell, our editor, who believed in this project and supported it from the beginning; also, to Mary Gehl, for smoothing our way to publication. Most of all, we would like to thank our contributors, who often took time out from their own work to address a difficult, volatile, and elusive topic, and who rose marvelously to the occasion. D. M. H. V.T. Ann Arbor, Michigan December 3, 2005 GAY SHAME [DAVID M. HALPERIN AND VALERIE TRAUB] Beyond Gay Pride Ever since the Stonewall Riots of 1969 and the era of gay liberation they in­ augurated, "gay pride” has been the rallying cry of a broad social movement for sexual freedom. It has also been the driving political force behind the emergence of the interdisciplinary fields of lesbian and gay studies and, more recently, queer theory. Liberation, legitimacy, dignity, acceptance, and assimilation, as weU as the right to be different: the goals ofgay pride require nothing less than the complete destigmatization ofhomosexuality, which means the elimination of both the personal and the social shame at­ tached to same-sex eroticism. Since 1969 the lesbian and gay movement has made remarkable global progress toward its goals, leading to such once undreamt-of achievements as the visible integration of queer folk into mainstream popular culture and the formal, public recognition of same- sex partnerships. At the same time, gay pride has generated considerable dissatisfactions of its own among some of the very people it has aimed, or claimed, to benefit. Despite everything it has accomplished, and perhaps because of everything it has accomplished, the gay pride movement has given rise to a surprising array of discontents. It was in this context that we decided, someyears ago, to interrogate the continued usefulness of gay pride. We wanted to find out what it would be like to do queer politics and queer studies otherwise. In this case, “other­ wise” seemed necessarily to imply some degree of renewed engagement with a category that represents, by definition, the very opposite o f“pride," at once its emotional antithesis and its political antagonist: namely, the category ofshame.* Gay pride has never been able to separate itself entirely from shame, or to transcend shame. Gay pride does not even make sense without some reference to the shame of being gay, and its very successes 4 HALPERIN AND TRAUB (to say nothing ofits failures) testify to the intensity of its ongoing struggle with shame. We started, accordingly, to identify topics that the imperative of gay pride had tended to place off-limits to legitimate inquiry, or had simply re­ pressed— shameful topics, that is, or topics gay pride itself might make us ashamed to investigate. And we tried to imagine a queer community founded not only in collective affirmations of pride but also in residual ex­ periences of shame.

  • Queer Alchemy: Fabulousness in Gay Male Literature and Film
    QUEER ALCHEMY QUEER ALCHEMY: FABULOUSNESS IN GAY MALE LITERATURE AND FILM By ANDREW JOHN BUZNY, B.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts McMaster University © Copyright by Andrew John Buzny, August 2010 MASTER OF ARTS (2010) McMaster University' (English) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: Queer Alchemy: Fabulousness in Gay Male Literature and Film AUTHOR: Andrew John Buzny, B.A. (McMaster University) SUPERVISOR: Professor Lorraine York NUMBER OF PAGES: v, 124pp. 11 ABSTRACT This thesis prioritizes the role of the Fabulous, an underdeveloped critical concept, in the construction of gay male literature and film. Building on Heather Love's observation that queer communities possess a seemingly magical ability to transform shame into pride - queer alchemy - I argue that gay males have created a genre of fiction that draws on this alchemical power through their uses of the Fabulous: fabulous realism. To highlight the multifarious nature of the Fabulous, I examine Thomas Gustafson's film Were the World Mine, Tomson Highway's novel Kiss ofthe Fur Queen, and Quentin Crisp's memoir The Naked Civil Servant. 111 ACKNO~EDGEMENTS This thesis would not have reached completion without the continuing aid and encouragement of a number of fabulous people. I am extremely thankful to have been blessed with such a rigorous, encouraging, compassionate supervisor, Dr. Lorraine York, who despite my constant erratic behaviour, and disloyalty to my original proposal has remained a strong supporter of this project: THANK YOU! I would also like to thank my first reader, Dr. Sarah Brophy for providing me with multiple opportunities to grow in~ellectually throughout the past year, and during my entire tenure at McMaster University.

  • PLOT SUMMARY 1984 Part 1, Chapter 1
    PLOT SUMMARY 1984 Part 1, Chapter 1 Part 1, Chapter 1 Summary We are introduced to Winston Smith and the world in which he lives. He is a very aged thirty-nine year old man, with a small, thin stature. He works in one of the four Ministries that serve as the entire government of Oceania. The Ministry names and functions are as follows: The Ministry of Truth, which regulates all forms of media, entertainment, and arts; the Ministry of Peace, which presides over all aspects of war; the Ministry of Love, which is a form of judicial system; and the Ministry of Plenty, which governs economic affairs. The description of life in his world is bleak at best. He lives in a filthy building that smells of boiled cabbage. The elevator is always broken and his flat (apartment) is on the seventh floor. He has a terrible time getting up and down the stairs on account of a constantly oozing and aching varicose ulcer just above his right ankle. When he finally gets home, he is greeted by the same type of environment that he just left at work: constant surveillance by Big Brother, the government. This constant watch is kept on him by a telescreen, which covers the wall and is constantly monitoring not only his every action and word, but also his facial expressions. The slightest notion through gesture or appearance against the Party means death or worse. He must, in every aspect of his being, be a member of the Party, the group that supports Big Brother.

    Queer Newark Oral History Project Interviewee: Aleix Martinez Interviewer: Kristyn Scorsone Date: September 6, 2017 Location: Rutgers University-Newark Kristyn: Today is September 6, 2017. My name is Kristyn Scorsone and I’m interviewing Aleix Martinez in the Queer Newark Office at Rutgers Newark. First off, thank you for doing this. Aleix: Thank you so much for having me. Kristyn: The first question is when and where were you born? Aleix: I was born just outside of Barcelona, Spain on July 20th, 1978, which is the day of the moon landing but not the same year. [Laughter] I lived there in the Barcelona area until April 1984, which is when I first came to Newark. Kristyn: Who raised you? Aleix: I was raised by my mother and father, but like most kids of my generation I was a latchkey kid, so I’d be home alone until 8:00 at night so I wanna say I also raised me [laughter] part of the time. Kristyn: What did your parents do for a living? Aleix: My mom at the time was working retail here in Newark in Ironbound at a Spanish clothing store and my dad worked in Kearny at a water purifying plant called Spectraserv. My mom eventually started working at Port Newark as a security guard. Kristyn: What’s an early memory that stands out to you? Aleix: Of Newark? Kristyn: Well, in general. Aleix: I remember the first day that I landed in the United States is a huge memory for me. I remember that the Empire State Building was yellow and I remember driving over the Verrazano and I remember telling my mom I was like, “Is this New York?” and she was like, “Yeah, this is New York.” I was like, “I don’t like it.
