    THE U1'IIVERSITY OF HULL Representations of Love in the Novels of Jeanette Winterson From 1985 to 2000 being a Thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of Hull by Julie Lisa Ellam B.A.(Hons), M.A. April 2003 1 Acknowledgements The support and guidance of my supervisor, Dr Jane Thomas, has enabled me to complete this work. I am also indebted to her for advising me to apply for the Graduate Teaching Assistant position at Hull University and for all of the technical advice she has offered consistently whilst I was working on both my thesis and M.A. dissertation. I would also like to acknowledge and thank Professor Angela Leighton for her detailed analysis of a draft of this work. Thanks must go to my family, friends and colleagues who have had to endure a constant barrage of complaints and tears over the last few years. Without their kindness and love it is unlikely that I would have even embarked on such a project, let alone complete it. Finally, this is for all the absent loved ones who are always in my thoughts. 11 Contents Acknowledgements 1 Contents 11 Abbreviations 111 Introduction 1 Chapter 1 The Ties That Bind 16 (Oranges are not the Only Fruit (1985)) Chapter 2 Love, Testing the Limits of Freedom 57 (The Passion (1987)) Chapter 3 Writing Strategies: Love, Politics and Art 96 (Sexing the Cherry (1989)) Chapter 4 Undying Love 127 (Written on the Body (1992)) Chapter 5 The Language of Love 159 (Written on the Body (1992) and Art and Lies (1994)) Chapter 6 Cheating Hearts 19l (Gut Symmetries (1997)) Chapter 7 Love Stories: New arid Old 221 (The.Powerbook (2000)) Conclusion 256 Bibliography 262 ill Abbreviations 0 Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit (1985) P The Passion (1987) S Sexing the Cherry (1989) W Written on the Body (1992) AL Art and Lies (1994) GS Gut Symmetries (1997) TP The.Powerbook (2000) A 0 Art Objects: Essays on Ecstasy and Effrontery (1995) 1 Introduction What a strange world it is where you can have as much sex as you like but love is taboo.

  • James Baldwin As a Writer of Short Fiction: an Evaluation
    JAMES BALDWIN AS A WRITER OF SHORT FICTION: AN EVALUATION dayton G. Holloway A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December 1975 618208 ii Abstract Well known as a brilliant essayist and gifted novelist, James Baldwin has received little critical attention as short story writer. This dissertation analyzes his short fiction, concentrating on character, theme and technique, with some attention to biographical parallels. The first three chapters establish a background for the analysis and criticism sections. Chapter 1 provides a biographi­ cal sketch and places each story in relation to Baldwin's novels, plays and essays. Chapter 2 summarizes the author's theory of fiction and presents his image of the creative writer. Chapter 3 surveys critical opinions to determine Baldwin's reputation as an artist. The survey concludes that the author is a superior essayist, but is uneven as a creator of imaginative literature. Critics, in general, have not judged Baldwin's fiction by his own aesthetic criteria. The next three chapters provide a close thematic analysis of Baldwin's short stories. Chapter 4 discusses "The Rockpile," "The Outing," "Roy's Wound," and "The Death of the Prophet," a Bi 1 dungsroman about the tension and ambivalence between a black minister-father and his sons. In contrast, Chapter 5 treats the theme of affection between white fathers and sons and their ambivalence toward social outcasts—the white homosexual and black demonstrator—in "The Man Child" and "Going to Meet the Man." Chapter 6 explores the theme of escape from the black community and the conseauences of estrangement and identity crises in "Previous Condition," "Sonny's Blues," "Come Out the Wilderness" and "This Morning, This Evening, So Soon." The last chapter attempts to apply Baldwin's aesthetic principles to his short fiction.

    ROSE IN BLOOM A Sequel to "Eight Cousins" By Louisa May Alcott Preface As authors may be supposed to know better than anyone else what they intended to do when writing a book, I beg leave to say that there is no moral to this story. Rose is not designed for a model girl, and the Sequel was simply written in fulfillment of a promise, hoping to afford some amusement, and perhaps here and there a helpful hint, to other roses getting ready to bloom.

"They are the Campbells, waiting for their cousin, who has been abroad several years with her uncle, the doctor," whispered one lady to another as the handsomest of the young men touched his hat to her as he passed, lugging the boy, whom he had just rescued from a little expedition down among the piles.

Wisse Kelly Scott Johnson Sholem Schwarzbard: Biography of a Jewish Assassin Abstract The thesis represents the first complete academic biography of a Jewish clockmaker, warrior poet and Anarchist named Sholem Schwarzbard. Schwarzbard's experience was both typical and unique for a Jewish man of his era. It included four immigrations, two revolutions, numerous pogroms, a world war and, far less commonly, an assassination. The latter gained him fleeting international fame in 1926, when he killed the Ukrainian nationalist leader Symon Petliura in Paris in retribution for pogroms perpetrated during the Russian Civil War (1917-20). After a contentious trial, a French jury was sufficiently convinced both of Schwarzbard's sincerity as an avenger, and of Petliura's responsibility for the actions of his armies, to acquit him on all counts. Mostly forgotten by the rest of the world, the assassin has remained a divisive figure in Jewish-Ukrainian relations, leading to distorted and reductive descriptions his life.

  • 1 / Isaak Babelʹ: a Brief Life
    1 / Isaak Babelʹ: A Brief Life Beginnings Neither Babelʹ’s “Autobiography,” written in 1924 to gain ideological credentials as a “Soviet” writer, nor the so-called autobiographical stories, which Babelʹ intended to collect under the title Story of My Dovecote (История моей голубятни) strictly relate to the facts, but they are illuminating for the construction of the writer’s identity as someone who hid his highly individual personality behind the mask of a Soviet writer who had broken with his bourgeois Jewish past. Babelʹ’s father, for example, was not an impoverished shopkeeper, but a dealer in agricultural machinery, though not a particularly successful businessman. Emmanuel Itskovich, born in Belaia Tserkovʹ, was a typical merchant who had worked his way up and set up his own business.1 Babelʹ’s mother, Fenia (neé Shvekhvelʹ), as Nathalie Babel has testified, was quite unlike the Rachel of the Childhood stories. About his book of Childhood stories, Story of My Dovecote, Babelʹ wrote his family: “The subjects of the stories are all taken from my childhood, but, of course, there is much that has been made up and changed. When the book is finished, it will be clear why I had to do all that.”2 But then the fantasies of the untruthful boy in the story “In the Basement” (“В подвале”) do inject a kind of poetic truth into the real lives of his crazy grandfather, a disgraced rabbi from Belaia Tserkovʹ, and his drunken uncle Simon-Wolf. Despite the necessary post-revolutionary revision of biography carried out by many writers, nothing could be more natural than Hebrew, the Bible, and Talmud being taught at home by a melamed, or part-time tutor.
