Dining with Anna and Friends
Dining with Anna and Friends This list of restaurants, bars, delis, and food stores are related in one way or another to The Tales of the City (books and/or films) as well as to The Night Listener. They are grouped by neighborhoods or areas in San Francisco. Some have already been included in existing walking tours. More will be included in future tours. Many establishments – particularly bars and clubs – featured in Armistead Maupin’s books have since closed. The buildings were either vacant or have been converted into other types of businesses altogether (for example, one has been turned into a service for individuals who are homeless) at the time this list was created. For these reasons, those establishments have not been included in this list. As with the rest of the content of the Tours of the Tales website, this list will be periodically updated. If you have updates, please forward them to me. I appreciate your help. NOTE: Please do not consider this list an exhaustive list of eating/drinking establishments in San Francisco. For example, although there are several restaurants listed in “North Beach” below, there are many more excellent places in North Beach in addition to those listed. Also, do not consider this list an endorsement of any place included in the list. The Google map for this list of eating establishments: Dining with Anna and Friends.

The Queer" Third Species": Tragicomedy in Contemporary
The Queer “Third Species”: Tragicomedy in Contemporary LGBTQ American Literature and Television A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department English and Comparative Literature of the College of Arts and Sciences by Lindsey Kurz, B.A., M.A. March 2018 Committee Chair: Dr. Beth Ash Committee Members: Dr. Lisa Hogeland, Dr. Deborah Meem Abstract This dissertation focuses on the recent popularity of the tragicomedy as a genre for representing queer lives in late-twentieth and twenty-first century America. I argue that the tragicomedy allows for a nuanced portrayal of queer identity because it recognizes the systemic and personal “tragedies” faced by LGBTQ people (discrimination, inadequate legal protection, familial exile, the AIDS epidemic, et cetera), but also acknowledges that even in struggle, in real life and in art, there is humor and comedy. I contend that the contemporary tragicomedy works to depart from the dominant late-nineteenth and twentieth-century trope of queer people as either tragic figures (sick, suicidal, self-loathing) or comedic relief characters by showing complex characters that experience both tragedy and comedy and are themselves both serious and humorous. Building off Verna A. Foster’s 2004 book The Name and Nature of Tragicomedy, I argue that contemporary examples of the tragicomedy share generic characteristics with tragicomedies from previous eras (most notably the Renaissance and modern period), but have also evolved in important ways to work for queer authors. The contemporary tragicomedy, as used by queer authors, mixes comedy and tragedy throughout the text but ultimately ends in “comedy” (meaning the characters survive the tragedies in the text and are optimistic for the future). -

DESCRIPTORS Class Activities; *English Instruction; Literature Appreciation; *Reader Text Relationship; Secondary Education; *Short Stories IDENTIFIERS *Response to Literature ABSTRACT Examining how teachers help students respond to short fiction, this book presents 25 essays that look closely at "teachable" short stories by a diverse group of classic and contemporary writers. The approaches shared by the contributors move from readers' first personal connections to a story, through a growing facility with the structure of stories and the perception of their varied cultural contexts, to a refined and discriminating sense of taste in short fiction. After a foreword ("What Is a Short Story and How Do We Teach It?"), essays in the book are: (1) "Shared Weight: Tim O'Brien's 'The Things They Carried'" (Susanne Rubenstein); (2) "Being People Together: Toni Cade Bambara's 'Raymond's Run'" (Janet Ellen Kaufman); (3) "Destruct to Instruct: 'Teaching' Graham Greene's 'The Destructors'" (Sara R.

From Future Homemaker of America to the Lesbian Continuum: the Queering
FROM FUTURE HOMEMAKER OF AMERICA TO THE LESBIAN CONTINUUM: THE QUEERING OF MARY ANN SINGLETON IN ARMISTEAD MAUPIN'S TALES By Sara Katherine White ____________________________________ Matthew W.

Scott Elwell Assistant Professor of English Dean of Arts and Sciences (Committee Member) A. Jerald Ainsworth, Ph.D. Dean of the Graduate School FROM FUTURE HOMEMAKER OF AMERICA TO THE LESBIAN CONTINUUM: THE QUEERING OF MARY ANN SINGLETON IN ARMISTEAD MAUPIN'S TALES By Sara Katherine White A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements of the Degree of Master's in English The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga Chattanooga, Tennessee December 2012 ii Copyright © 2012 By Sara Katherine White All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Armistead Maupin's Tales of the City series is a turning point in homosexual literature in twentieth century America. This paper mainly examines the character of Mary Ann Singleton and the “queering” of her character. The writings of Michel Foucault, Judith Butler, Adrienne Rich, Eve K. Sedgwick, and Simone de Beauvoir are vital in understanding how a straight woman journeys onto the lesbian continuum as a revolt against gender roles (defined by Butler and Beauvoir) and as a result of her friendship with Michael Tolliver. Michael's character provides a discourse (as defined by Foucault) on homosexuality and through this discourse, he provides a contrast to the dysfunctions of compulsory heterosexuality in Mary Ann's journey. -

Castro and Noe Valley
Tour #8: The Castro, Noe Valley, and Dubose Triangle The tour includes a lot of walking uphill for two and three blocks at a stretch. Because of this, you have the option of a “Reader’s Digest” (i.e., abbreviated) version of the tour or the complete, unabridged (i.e., hills included) option for this tour. The tour of the Castro, Noe Valley, and Dubose Triangle starts at the intersection of Market, 17th, and Castro streets. To reach the intersection, take any of following MUNI Metro trains: K Ingleside, L Taraval, or M Ocean View – all of which stop at the Castro Street Muni Station. You can also take the historic streetcar line, F Market & Wharfs, from Downtown to the same intersection. The #24 Divisidero bus line travels north-south along Castro Street. Link for the Google Map of this Tour: Tour #8: The Castro, Noe Valley, and Dubose Triangle. Brief comment about “The Castro”: In the 1970s, when the Castro saw the flowering of the nascent gay community in San Francisco, this neighborhood was still known as Eureka Valley. You will occasionally see that name used by businesses and other entities in the area. Visit the “Links” page of the Tours of the Tales website for addition links to information about the Castro. Castro MUNI Metro Station During the 2011 Pride Festival, the American Conservatory Theater and the City of San Francisco painted this mural at the inbound platform at the Castro MUNI Metro Station. Visitors were invited to take their photos standing at this mural and post it to Facebook for prizes. -
