  • Boxer Handsome; a Novel and Critical Study of Representations of Masculinities in Modern Literature
    Boxer Handsome; a novel and critical study of representations of masculinities in modern literature. Anna Whitwham Thesis Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Royal Holloway, University of London 2014 1 Declaration of Authorship I, Anna Whitwham, hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Signed: Anna Whitwham Date: 31/08/2013 2 Acknowledgments A very special thank you to my supervisors, Andrew Motion and Robert Hampson, for all their invaluable support and guidance throughout my PhD. I would also like to thank my agent, Simon Trewin for believing in my writing. I am very grateful to Chatto &Windus for publishing my novel to my editor, Parisa Ebrahimi. 3 Abstract This thesis is a study of modern masculinities as represented in both fiction and non–fiction. It is explored through a novel, Boxer Handsome and through a critical essay. The critical essay will explore working class masculinity through an analysis of 1950s fiction, cinematic representations and factual accounts of boxers and gangsters and the performance of masculinity within sub-cultural groups. I will look at how representations of masculinity are performed within specific sub-cultural groups of men and the way language is formed as a response to social and cultural experience. The thesis will be separated into four chapters: Chapter 1. Post-1950s British fiction and cinema; Chapter 2. Fictional and factual accounts of boxers; Chapter 3. Gangsters and Violence, and Chapter 4. Representations of women in some of these cultures.

Introduction There are many beginnings to the history of Electronic Dance Music (EDM). It would be a mistake to exclude the impact that disco had upon house, techno, acid house, and dance music in general. While disco evolved mostly in the dance capital of America (New York), it proposed the idea that danceable songs could be mixed smoothly together, allowing for long term dancing to previously recorded music. Prior to the disco era, nightlife dancing was restricted to bands or jukeboxes, which limited variety and options of songs and genres. The selections of the DJs mattered more than their technical excellence at mixing.

The central objective was to investigate the people who used the drug, where they used it and how it was dealt. In pursuit of this I undertook two empirical pieces of work, a series of interviews and an ethnography. The interviews were of two sorts, firstly a set of longitudinal interviews of middle class ecstasy users, first contacted when they had just began taking the drug and again when they had stopped. These interviews were supported by one-off interviews with three other groups with similar class backgrounds. The other part of the study was a nine month ethnography of a large London night-club, where the author worked first as part of the bar staff and secondly as part of the security team.

More specifically, the thesis sets out to answer three broad questions: how Is clubbing constituted through the practices. Imaginations and emotions of the clubbers themselves; how does music and dancing so powerfully affect our experiencing of spaces, of ourselves and of others; and, how Is clubbing, as a form of 'play', so Important to the wider Identities and Identifications of the clubbers, and In what ways can It engender vitality through Its playful practices? The clubbing experiences of eighteen clubbers are used In progressing three Interrelated literatures - on 'youth cultures' and being young, on consumption and consuming, and on Identity and Identifications - through the development of four broad but connected themes.

  • The Cultivation of Marine Soils the Hydraulic Harvesting of the Hard Shell Clam Mercenaria Mercenaria
    Introduction/References Timothy C. Visel, The Sound School May 2009 “The Hydraulic Cultivation of Marine Soil to Enhance Clam Production” has been one of the most requested reports from our Adult Education and Outreach program directory. The report is actually a combination of 3 individual papers/slide presentations from 1985-1990. The first is a fisheries history of hydraulic shellfish harvesting and slide presentation made possible by the cooperation of Mr. Francis (Frank) Dolan of Guilford CT and earlier information obtained from George McNeil of Clinton, CT. This information accompanied a slide show which was completed in 1986 and reshown twice four years later on August 27, 1990 at the Rhode Island Shellfish Conference and September 20, 1990 at the Madison Town Hall – Madison, CT. The August 27, 1990 presentation was titled “Shellfish Management and Restoration Programs in Connecticut.” The second is a section discussion regarding several environmental issues attributed to hydraulic shellfish harvesting – Appendix 1 is a literature search (references) for biological/environmental and fisheries technology (methods) as it relates to hydraulic or power clam dredging. This literature search was first conducted for the Madison Shellfish Commission and updated in October 1997 for the Rhode Island Legislative Commission for Aquaculture. It was rekeyed for Rhode Island Aquaculture Taskforce during a program organized by the Rhode Island Seafood Council in February of 1999. The third section is a resource allocation/management study also in the town of Madison. This component details shellfish access issues following enormous sets of both oysters and clams on natural beds located within that community from the 1950 to 1980’s.
