    Spectatrices: Moviegoing and Women’s Writing, 1925-1945 Nolan Gear Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2021 © 2021 Nolan Gear All Rights Reserved Abstract Spectatrices: Moviegoing and Women’s Writing, 1925-1945 Nolan Gear How did cinema influence the many writers who also constituted the first generation of moviegoers? In Spectatrices, I argue that early moviegoing was a rich imaginative reservoir for anglophone writers on both sides of the Atlantic. Coming to cinema from the vantage of the audience, I suggest that women of the 1920s found in moviegoing a practice of experimentation, aesthetic inquiry, and social critique. My project is focused on women writers not only as a means of reclaiming the femininized passivity of the audience, but because moviegoing offered novel opportunities for women to gather publicly. It was, for this reason, a profoundly political endeavor in the first decades of the 20th century. At the movies, writers such as Jessie Redmon Fauset, Zora Neale Hurston, H.D., Dorothy Richardson, and Virginia Woolf developed concepts of temporary community, alternative desire, and discontinuous form that they then incorporated into their literary practice. Where most scholarship assessing cinema’s influence on literature is governed by the medium-specificity of film, my project emphasizes the public dimension of the movies, the fleeting and semi-anonymous intimacy of the moviegoing audience. In turning to moviegoing, Spectatrices opens new methods of comparison and cross-canonical reorganization, focusing on the weak social ties typified by moviegoing audiences, the libidinal permissiveness of fantasy and diva-worship, the worshipful rhetoric by which some writers transformed the theater into a church, and most significantly, the creation of new public formations for women across different axes of class, gender, and race.

  • Do Tropical Typhoons Smash Community Ties? Theory and Evidence from Vietnam
    Do tropical typhoons smash community ties? Theory and Evidence from Vietnam Yanos Zylberberg∗ Paris School of Economics Preliminary and incomplete draft Abstract In rural economies, risk-sharing arrangements through networks of relatives and friends are common. Indeed, contract enforcement issues impede the development of formal insurance mechanisms. However, after a disruption of the allocative instru- ments of the market, the prerequisites under which informal arrangements are feasible might evolve. I rely on a model of imperfect commitment to derive predictions on the sustainability of risk-sharing arrangements in the aftermath of extreme events. I then test these predictions on a representative panel data in Vietnam, using tropical ty- phoons trails and wind structures. The estimation of a structural equation derived by the theory is compatible with a model of imperfect commitment where the aftermath of natural disasters is associated with stronger enforcement mechanisms at commune level. Allowing for altruistic sentiments or coordination among the members of a community, I find that a resurgence of charity or a higher level of cooperation explain this unexpected result. The influence of pre-disaster social norms and existing ties to prevent disruption of integrative mechanisms in the community gives support to this interpretation. Finally, communities having already suffered important trauma show greater signs of resilience. Keywords: Natural disasters, informal insurance, coordination, imperfect commit- ment.

Kaplan* ABSTRACT In recent decades, studios that own film and television properties have developed business models that exploit the copyrights in those materials in every known market and in all currently conceivable forms of entertainment and merchandising. For the most part, uniform laws and parallel industry cultures permit smooth integration across formats. But theater is different. The work-made-for-hire provisions that allow corporations to function as the authors of the works they contract to create do not easily align with the culture and standard contract provisions of live theater.

The following is an attempt to summarize a theory of place for virtual environments and explain both the shortcomings and the advantages of this theory. Introduction What is Virtual Reality (VR)? According to Schroeder (1996, p. 2) it is “often taken to refer to a computer linked to a head-mounted display and a glove. VR systems give the user a sense of being inside a computer-generated environment and of being able to interact with it.” The head- mounted displays (HMDs) track where the user’s head is looking and update the virtual scene accordingly.

  • Observations on Crossed Products and Invariants of Hopf Algebras
    Arch. Math., Vol. 63, 119-127 (1994) 0003-889X/94/6302-0119 $ 3.30/0 1994 Birkh~iuser Verlag, Basel Observations on crossed products and invariants of Hopf algebras By MARIA E. LORENZ and MARTIN LORENZ Introduction. Let B = A ~ ~ H denote a crossed product of the associative algebra A with the finite-dimensional Hopf algebra H. By studying the process of induction of modules from A to B in the case where H is pointed we show in Section 1 that the Jacobson radicals of B and A are related by J(B) dimkH ~ J(A) B. We then specialize to the situation where A is an H-module algebra, the cocycle a is trivial (so B is a smash product), and the trace map from A to the algebra of H-invariants A n is surjective. Making essential use of the well-known Morita context linking B with the algebra of H-invariants A H we investigate the transfer of properties from A to An. In Section 3 we show, for example, that if A is right Noetherian (right Artinian) then so is A H. In fact, A is Noetherian (Artinian) as right An-module in this case. Furthermore, if Kdim (AA) exists then Kdim (A~H) exists as well and is bounded above by Kdim (AA). The results concerning the Noetherian property have first been obtained by S. Montgomery ([7], Theorem 4.4.2) and have motivated much of our research in this section. Further- more, we extend most of [5], Theorem 3.3 from group algebras to pointed Hopf algebras.

  • State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations
    STATE OF RHODE ISLAND AND PROVIDENCE PLANTATIONS PROVIDENCE, SC SUPERIOR COURT : CHAPMAN STREET REALTY, : INC., ET AL. : : : v. : C.A. No. 2001-2217 : : DEPARTMENT OF BUSINESS REGULATION, ET AL. DECISION GIBNEY, J. Before this Court is petitioners’ appeal from a decision of the Department of Business Regulation (DBR), denying a liquor license transfer from petitioner Laurence E. DeChristofaro, Jr. to petitioner Francisco Batista. The petitioners argue that the Hearing Officer abused his discretion and committed error of law by refusing to grant the liquor license transfer. Jurisdiction is pursuant to G.L. 1956 § 42-35-15. Facts/Travel Petitioner, Lawrence E. DeChristofaro, Jr., (DeChristofaro), was the owner of a bar known as “Chaps,” for which he was the holder of a Class BX liquor license. In September 1998, DeChristofaro entered into a purchase and sale agreement to sell Chaps and to transfer its liquor license to petitioner, Francisco Batista, hereinafter “Batista.” Batista was at the time, and currently is, involved with running a club called “Club 3030.” On October 13, 1999, the Providence Board of Licenses denied the liquor license transfer application. Batista appealed to the Rhode Island Department of Business Regulation. At the 1 hearing before the DBR, the primary witness in opposition to the liquor license transfer was Louis A. Aponte, the area Councilman. (Tr. at of December 15, 1999 at 16-17.) Councilman Aponte expressed community concerns that Chaps, which had traditionally been run as a local bar, would attempt to expand and that this expansion would deleteriously affect the character of the neighborhood. Id. Settlement negotiations resolved these community concerns through a consent agreement signed on February 21, 2000.
