    GERTRUDE STEIN AND HER AUDIENCE: SMALL PRESSES, LITTLE MAGAZINES, AND THE RECONFIGURATION OF MODERN AUTHORSHIP KALI MCKAY BACHELOR OF ARTS, UNIVERSITY OF LETHBRIDGE, 2006 A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies of the University of Lethbridge in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree MASTER OF ARTS Department of English University of Lethbridge LETHBRIDGE, ALBERTA, CANADA © Kali McKay, 2010 Abstract: This thesis examines the publishing career of Gertrude Stein, an American expatriate writer whose experimental style left her largely unpublished throughout much of her career. Stein’s various attempts at dissemination illustrate the importance she placed on being paid for her work and highlight the paradoxical relationship between Stein and her audience. This study shows that there was an intimate relationship between literary modernism and mainstream culture as demonstrated by Stein’s need for the public recognition and financial gains by which success had long been measured. Stein’s attempt to embrace the definition of the author as a professional who earned a living through writing is indicative of the developments in art throughout the first decades of the twentieth century, and it problematizes modern authorship by re- emphasizing the importance of commercial success to artists previously believed to have been indifferent to the reaction of their audience. iii Table of Contents Title Page ………………………………………………………………………………. i Signature Page ………………………………………………………………………… ii Abstract ……………………………………………………………………………….. iii Table of Contents …………………………………………………………………….. iv Chapter One …………………………………………………………………………..... 1 Chapter Two ………………………………………………………………………….. 26 Chapter Three ………………………………………………………………………… 47 Chapter Four .………………………………………………………………………... 66 Works Cited .………………………………………………………………………….. 86 iv Chapter One Hostile readers of Gertrude Stein’s work have frequently accused her of egotism, claiming that she was a talentless narcissist who imposed her maunderings on the public with an undeserved sense of self-satisfaction.

    Representation, Re-presentation, and Repetition of the Past in Gertrude Stein’s The Making of Americans by Alexandria Sanborn Representation, Re-presentation, and Repetition of the Past in Gertrude Stein’s The Making of Americans by Alexandria Sanborn A thesis presented for the B. A. degree with Honors in The Department of English University of Michigan Spring 2011 © March 2011, Alexandria Mary Sanborn This thesis is dedicated my father. Even as he remains my most exasperating critic, his opinion has always mattered most to me. Acknowledgements I would like to thank my adviser, Andrea Zemgulys for her help and guidance throughout this project. At the start of this year, I was unsure about what I wanted to say about Stein, and our initial conversation guided me back to ideas I needed to continue pursuing. As I near the finish line, I look back at my initial drafts and am flooded with gratitude for her ability to tactfully identify the strengths and weaknesses of my argument while parsing through my incoherent prose. She was always open and responsive to my ideas and encouraged me to embrace them as my own, which gave me the confidence to enter a critical conversation that seemed to resist my reading of Stein. Next, I thank Cathy Sanok and Honors English cohort who have provided valuable feedback about my writing throughout the drafting process and were able to truly understand and commiserate with me during the more stressful periods of writing. Through the financial support of the Wagner Bursary, I had the opportunity to visit the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library at Yale University to read Stein’s notebooks and early drafts of The Making of Americans.

Five different sections focus on: the background of Stein and how her understanding of expression came into existence, Paris and the unique environment it provided for experimentation at the beginning of the twentieth century (and how that compared to the environment found in America), Modernism existing in Paris prior to World War One, the mass culture of militarization in World War One and the effect on the subjective perspective, and post-war Paris, Stein, and the Lost Generation. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION………………………………………………………………v-vi CHAPTER ONE: STEIN’S FORMATIVE YEARS…………………………..vii-xiv CHAPTER TWO: EARLY TWENTIETH CENTURY PARIS……..………...xv-xxvi CHAPTER THREE: PREWAR MODERNISM.........………………………...xxvii-xl CHAPTER FOUR: WORLD WAR ONE…….......…………..…………..……...xl-liii CHAPTER FIVE: POST WAR PARIS, STEIN, AND MODERNISM ……liii-lxxiv CONCLUSION…………………………………………………………....lxxv-lxxvii BIBLIOGRAPHY……………………………………………………….lxxviii-lxxxiii iv INTRODUCTION: The destruction caused by The Great War left behind a gaping chasm between the pre-war worldview and the dark reality left after the war.

  • Books at the Borders of Picasso's Les Demoiselles D'avignon
    Books at the Borders of Picasso’s Les Demoiselles d’Avignon Karen L. Schiff Abstract This paper proposes that Picasso’s landmark 1907 painting, Les Demoiselles d’Avignon, is full of images of books and pages, especially at the borders of the canvas. The curving shapes which are traditionally seen as “curtains” can alternatively be interpreted as the white pages and brown paper wrappers of open books, rotated 90 degrees. This “visual marginalia” supports the interpretation of Picasso’s famous brothel scene as a semiotic construction, befitting the painting’s early title (devised by Picasso’s writer friends), “The Philosophical Brothel”. The painting also contains iconographic representations of textuality. A slightly open book can be perceived in the middle of the painting, and along the bottom border, an open envelope and writing paper can be seen laid atop the tipped-up table, under the fruit. I claim that Picasso’s images of texts derive from his acquaintance with the text-driven, monumental novel, Don Quixote. I give special attention to the narrative Author’s Preface to the Spanish literary classic, in which the author describes assembling quotations from diverse sources to compose the first and last pages of his book. Picasso visually represents this allusion by depicting pages at the left and right “ends” of his canvas. Other texts and images are considered as sources for the bibliographic imagery, which generally reframes this canvas as a fictive tissue of quotations, akin to the overabundance of texts that Don Quixote is reading in Cervantes’s novel. Picasso’s painted image of a blank leaf of writing paper and its envelope, finally, encourages viewers to see the painting as a letter of communication, for which we ourselves must provide the writing that would represent our interpretations.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract This thesis provides a contextualizing approach to Gertrude Stein’s The Making of Americans (1903-1911), using her notebooks, correspondence and college compositions dating from the 1890s, as well as the more well-known Femhurst, QED, and ‘Melanctha’; the study ends in 1911. Each chapter discusses representative texts with which Stein was familiar, and which had a discernible effect on the themes and style of the novel. In view of a critical tradition which has often obscured her nineteenth-century contexts, this reading provides a clearer definition of the social and intellectual environment which shaped her literary experiment. In chapter 1 I consider the influence of Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s Women and Economics (1898). Stein’s college themes and the speech, ‘The Value of College Education for Women’ (1898), reveal her feelings about the possibility of female creativity.

  • 169 6 Production and Reproduction: Gertrude Stein (1874-1946)
    6 Production and Reproduction: Gertrude Stein (1874-1946) Rod Rosenquist The identity of Gertrude Stein – high-modernist author, Paris salon-hostess and American celebrity – was the subject of much speculation throughout her career, especially in the wake of her bestselling volume The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas (1933). While numerous mass- media journalists quoted her and speculated about her writing or her personality, and while her publisher would label her ‘the publicity hound of the world’, Stein herself would retreat inward, suggesting that as others increasingly recognized her, ‘Well you see I did not know myself […] So many people knowing me I was I no longer.’1 This tension between the private Stein and the public Stein – that ‘there are two Steins’, as a photograph she was sent would lead her to observe – provides the focus for a number of studies of her role in modernist culture both as author and celebrity.2 Bryce Conrad (1995), Steven Watson (1998), Kirk Curnutt (2000), Alyson Tischler (2003), Loren Glass (2004), Karen Leick (2009), Deborah M. Mix (2010), Jonathan Goldman (2011), Timothy Galow (2011) and others have written about Stein’s self-staging, her persona as author or as central figure of modernism, or about her engagements with popular culture, mass audiences and the marketplace. That Stein was a major celebrity as well as an author of some of the most provocative aesthetic writings of the early twentieth century is clearly established in critical studies. But Stein as public figure has, not only now but even early in her career, attracted almost as much critical notice as her famous modernist style, to the point where a 2014 book carries the subtitle Returning to the Writing of Gertrude Stein.3 There are two figures, then: Stein 169 the writer and producer of literary texts and Stein the star author, a celebrity produced through recognition of her literary value and through her publicly-performed personality.
