  • The Front Runner Patricii Nell Warren. Coming Out, Czyli Zwycięstwo I Koniec Tragedii1
    The Front Runner Patricii Nell Warren. Coming out, czyli zwycięstwo i koniec tragedii1 https://doi.org/10.51897/interalia/UKEA5086 Mateusz Świetlicki Uniwersytet Wrocławski ORCID: 0000-0001-7009-3837 W niniejszym artykule chciałbym przybliżyć czytelnikom nieznaną w naszym regionie anglojęzyczną twórczość Patricii Nell Warren na przykładzie jej najbardziej znanego utworu The Front Runner (1974), powieści, w której autorka porusza kwestie homofobii i mizoginii w sporcie, jak również różne doświadczenia ujawniania homo- seksualnej orientacji dwóch pokoleń mężczyzn. Biorąc pod uwagę koncepcję potrójnej mimesis Paula Ricoeura, skupię się na relacji między własnym doświadczeniem autorki a narracyjną problematyką powieści, jak również wieloznaczną recepcją utworu wśród przedstawicieli społeczności LGBTQ+. Pragnę pokazać, że w kontekście amerykańskim The Front Runner może pełnić rolę tekstu kultury i medium pamięci, a dla nowych europejskich czytelników stanowić potencjalne źródło pamięci protetycznej, dostarczające literacką reprezentację doświad- czenia ujawnienia orientacji homoseksualnej i zmieniających się postaw społecznych wobec niebinarnych ról płciowych i nieheteroseksualności zaraz po zamieszkach w Stonewall i przed epidemią AIDS. Pragnę też zauwa- żyć, że zapoznanie polskich czytelników z prozą Warren może stać się impulsem do queerowej reinterpretacji wcześniejszej poezji autorki Tragedii pszczół. Słowa klucze: homofobia, mizoginia, heteronormatywność, literatura gejowska, literatura amerykańska, mimesis, pamięć Before coming out of the closet and publishing a series of successful gay novels, Patricia Nell Warren was known as Patricia Kilina, wife of a Ukrainian émigré writer George Tarnawsky. Her early poetry, written in Ukrainian, includes numerous references to non-traditional gender roles which she further explored in her anglophone novels. The Front Runner (1974) was published when Warren had already divorced her husband and came out of the closet.

  • The Edwards Aquifer (Part A)
    E-PARCC COLLABORATIVE GOVERNANCE INITIATIVE Program for the Advancement of SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY Maxwell School Research on Conflict and Collaboration THE EDWARDS AQUIFER (PART A) Amidst of one of the worst Texas droughts in recent memory, attorney Robert Gulley wondered why he had left his position at an established law practice to take on the position of program director for the Edwards Aquifer Recovery Implementation Program (EARIP). As the program director, Robert now worked for 26 different organizations and his job was to assist them, using a consensus-based stakeholder process, through one of the most contentious and intractable national disputes involving scarce groundwater resources at the Edwards Aquifer, one of the most valuable water resources in the Central Texas area. This dispute had already spanned decades and, to make this task even more daunting, the competing interests on both sides had made numerous unsuccessful attempts over the years to resolve this conflict. Hot weather, droughts, and the resulting conflicts between stakeholders are frequent occurrences in Texas. Robert, who had returned to his home state specifically for this position, knew that this drought would only intensify the tensions amongst the stakeholders involved. The Edwards Aquifer (“Aquifer”) provides approximately 90 percent of the water for over two million people living and working in the South-Central Texas area. The Aquifer supplies the water that services the city of San Antonio and other municipalities; a multi-million agricultural and ranching industry in the western part of the region that views water as a coveted property right; as well as the recreational activities that provide the backbone of the economies of rapidly-growing, nearby cities of San Marcos and New Braunfels (Figure 1).
