For this, I am eternally grateful and forever in debt. Although I will never be able to repay you for all you have given me, please consider the following. Dad, you are hereby forgiven for tossing “Ping,” my grease‐stained construction paper duck, in the garbage when I was a child. And Mom, you were right—However unconsciously, I do tend to leave cabinets open. To my grandmothers, I draw my strength (and good genes) from you. To my Jordan, I love you always.

In the shifting, nostalgia’s associations with the body and with the concept of home has diminished. This study of African American nostalgia for Africa uses genealogical inquiry, personal and autoethnographic narrative, and performance theories and practices to reinvigorate the relations between body, memory, aesthetics, past, and home. Attending to operations of time and space, I theorize the aforementioned relations in order to build a theory of critical nostalgia. Following Debbora Battaglia, I argue and illustrate that nostalgia is an act realized in performance, and I develop my theory of critical nostalgia investigating three primary sites of memory: two African American genealogy websites, Elmina Castle, a slave castle located on Ghana’s West coast, and my own staged theatre production Copious Notes: A Nostalgia Tale. Informed by Michel Foucault’s method of critical genealogy and Joseph Roach’s genealogies of performance, I offer critical nostalgia as a method of scholarly inquiry, as an active practice of personal and cultural memory, as a tool for representing memories of past‐homes, and as a compositional aesthetic. In the study, I interrogate the history of nostalgia and its use for scholars as a critical category. Theorizing the positionality of the corporeal black body within nostalgic appeals of home, homeland and community, I attend to the relations between origin, roots, and identity. Further, I explore the performative possibilities of nostalgia in relation to affective bodily experience and in relation to narratives of trauma. Finally, I illustrate the utility of critical nostalgia for creating aesthetic performances sensitive to time and space, and I synthesize the major tenants of critical nostalgia for use in performance praxis. v Chapter One Tracing the Body of Nostalgia: Nostalgia, Performance, and Performing Nostalgia In 1688, Swiss physician Johannes Hofer coined the term “nostalgia,” combining the Greek nostos, meaning to return home, and algos, for pain or longing, to refer to a familiar pathology we might call homesickness today. Since its debut in medical terminology, nostalgia has enjoyed a rich career as a descriptive and critical category in the social sciences and in the humanities. In “The Nostalgic Subject: A Genealogy of the ‘Critique of Nostalgia,’” Nauman Naqvi traces the development of nostalgia through history in order to “induce or heighten anxiety about the use of the word as a critical category” (Naqvi 7).1 According to Naqvi, nostalgia emerged as a medical term in the seventeenth century to describe the malady of desperately homesick “peasant‐soldiers.” In the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, nostalgia became associated with criminology, describing motivation for a variety of criminal activity, such as arson and assault. By the 1930s and 1940s, nostalgia was known as a psychological disorder, a mental condition that most commonly affected university students (Naqvi 7‐8). Further, somewhere along the line, nostalgia transformed from use as a diagnostic tool, applied to individuals displaying specific behaviors, to an indistinct critique “target[ing] the valorization and manipulation of the past” (Naqvi 5). This change marks two shifts crucial to my study. The first shift is the movement away from the corporeal body as an indication of nostalgic tendencies toward an emphasis on psychology. The second shift is that from diagnostic tool to social critique, turning nostalgia into a largely theoretical and subjective concept. Nostalgia transforms from being subject‐centered to 1 For other current reviews of nostalgia, see Susannah Radstone, The Sexual Politics of Time: Confession, Nostalgia, Memory; and Jenelle Wilson, Nostalgia: Sanctuary of Meaning. 1 being centered on the subjective evaluation of a text or other expression, attitude or style. Nowadays, nostalgia is used often in the colloquial as a style of dealing with or writing about the past, at best in terms of romanticism or escapism and at worst in an effort to censor the past.2 By the end of his study, Naqvi concludes that the term

  • Cultivating an “Ideal Body” in Taijiquan and Neigong

In Europe, the School of Internal Arts (pseudonym) follows key principles of the ancient Chinese text The Yijinjing (The Muscle-Tendon Change Classic) “Skeleton up, flesh down”, in its online and offline pedagogy. This article draws on an ongoing ethnographic, netnographic and cross-cultural investigation of the transmission of knowledge in this atypical association that combines Taijiquan with a range of practices such as Qigong, body loosening exercises and meditation. Exploring the ideal body cultivated by the students, we describe and illustrate key (and often overlooked) body areas—namely the spine, scapula, Kua and feet, which are continually worked on in the School of Internal Arts’ exercise-based pedagogy. We argue that Neigong and Taijiquan, rather than being forms of physical education, are vehicles for adult physical re-education. This re-education offers space in which mind-body tension built over the life course are systematically Citation: Ma, X.; Jennings, G. “Hang released through specific forms of attentive, meditative exercise to lay the foundations for a strong, the Flesh off the Bones”: Cultivating powerful body for martial artistry and health.

  • Tour of Ewing Sites Connected with William Green
    Visit Ewing Landmarks Connected with the William Green Family By Anne McArthur [email protected] or 609 510-9120 Sources: research by Billy O’Neal and sources in the Benjamin Temple House William Green I is one of Ewing’s earliest and most prominent settlers. Many Ewing citizens are familiar with his home, the William Green Farmhouse, listed on The National Registers of Historic Places, located on The College of New Jersey campus. Descendants of William Green are scattered throughout the United States. A recent question received by the Friends of the William Green Farmhouse inspired this article. A descendant of William Green I’s youngest son, Jeremiah, contacted the Friends and arranged a visit to his ancestor’s home. Jeremiah had moved to Tennessee in the 18th century and his descendant now lives in Alabama. When he visited, the Friends arranged a driving tour to view the outside of buildings associated with William Green and his descendants. Jeremiah’s descendant was impressed with how many historic treasures associated with his ancestors still survive. The Friends want to share with you information about sites related to the Green family still standing in Ewing. Enjoy a physical tour of these Ewing Township sites! None of the houses are open to the public but may be viewed from the exterior. If you or your friends have additional records about the Green family or their properties, please contact the author. William Green was a yeoman and an early Hunterdon County judge. He and his wife, Joanna Reeder, came to Ewing from Newtown, NY around 1700.

The Material Turn, Praxiography, and Body History Iris Clever and Willemijn Ruberg Department of History and Art History, Utrecht University, Drift 6, 3512 BS Utrecht, The Netherlands; E-Mails: [email protected] (I.C.); [email protected] (W.R.) External Editor: Victoria Thompson Received: 24 March 2014; in revised form: 27 August 2014 / Accepted: 16 September 2014 / Published: 9 October 2014 Abstract: The body came to be taken seriously as a topic of cultural history during the “corporeal” or “bodily” turn in the 1980s and 1990s. Soon, however, critique was raised against these studies’ conceptualization of the body as discursively shaped and socially disciplined: individual bodily agency and feeling were felt to be absent in the idea of the material body. This article critically analyzes new approaches in the field of body history, particularly the so-called “material turn”. It argues that the material turn, especially in the guise of praxiography, has a lot to offer historians of the body, such as more attention to material practices, to different kinds of actors and a more open eye to encounters. Potential problems of praxiographical analyses of the body in history include the complicated relationship between discourses and practices and the neglect of the political and feminist potential of deconstructive discourse analyses. However, a focus on the relationship between practices of knowledge production and the representation of the body may also provide new ways of opening up historical power relations.

  • Skinny Blues: Karen Carpenter, Anorexia Nervosa and Popular Music
    Skinny blues: Karen Carpenter, anorexia nervosa and popular music George McKay We might locate that colloquial inauguration of anorexia on a Las Vegas nightclub stage in the fall of 1975, when the popular musician Karen Carpenter collapsed while singing ‘Top of the world’; or on the morning of 5 February 1983, when news [broke] of Carpenter’s death from a ‘starvation diet’…. [I]n the 1970s and 1980s [anorexia] … became a vernacular, an everyday word, an idiom. Patrick Anderson, So Much Wasted (2010, 32) The words come out of yr mouth but yr eyes say other things, ‘Help me, please, I’m lost in my own passive resistance, something went wrong’…. Did anyone ever ask you that question—what’s it like being a girl in music? Kim Gordon, ‘Open letter to Karen’ (n.d.) This article discusses an extraordinary body (Thomson 1997) in popular music, that belonging to the person with anorexia which is also usually a gendered body—female—and that of the singer or frontperson. I explore the relation between the anorexic body and popular music, which is more than simply looking at constructions of anorexia in pop. It involves contextually thinking about the (medical) history and the critical reception and representation, the place of anorexia across the creative industries more widely, and a particular moment when pop played a role in the public awareness of anorexia. Following such context I will look in more detail at a small number of popular music artists who had experience of anorexia, their stage and media presentations (of it), and how they did or apparently did not explore their experience of it in their own work and public appearances.
