By reading cursing and prophecy as epistemological weaponry, the thesis establishes a theory of early modern terror that corresponds to the effects of these tactics on local and national levels. Readings of traditional witchcraft literature and Shakespeare‟s Macbeth will hopefully allow for an understanding of witchcraft that is heavily concerned over the nature of agency within the period, particularly with regard to the ways in which magic and prognostication stimulated local economies.

Abstract: In this thesis, I seek to wed my experiences of activism, scholarship, and Pagan witchcraft community together through storied theory, in order to give an honest account of my own transformation through both scholarship and community action. I do this for many reasons. Because I want to honor the Queer interracial organizing community who saw me, built me up, opened my eyes and inspired in me an ethic of accountability and critical analysis of the world around me. Because I want to heed the call of scholars like Lisa Flores, Langford and Speight, Nakayama and Krizek to engage in reflexive scholarly praxes that explicitly seek to interrogate and disrupt colonialism and racism within the academy. Because I have felt so lonely and desperate in my search for a spiritual practice that resonates with me and doesn’t steal, erase, or perpetuate violence against Black, Indigenous, and People of Color Communities.

  • Narnian (An)Aesthetics
    Narnian (An)aesthetics [Unpublished paper delivered at The Museum of Childhood, Bethnal Green, London, 2000 on the occasion of the 50th Anniversary of the publication The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe] Björn Sundmark In Calormen, story-telling (whether the stories are true or made up) is a thing you’re taught, just as English boys and girls are taught essay-writing. The difference is that people want to hear the stories, whereas I never heard of anyone who wanted to read the essays. (Lewis, The Horse and His Boy, p. 36). In this essay I am going to talk about two things, both of which are implied in the quotation from The Horse and His Boy by C. S. Lewis: storytelling as a craft and what we value in narratives, specifically in fairy tales. I am going to pose the question whether Lewis follows the aesthetic precept above, or whether his Narnian writing deviates from the traditional norms of storytelling in such a way that readers could be put off by it. Has the writing too much of the “English essay” in it and too little of the “grand Calormene manner”? In other words, are the stories aesthetically pleasing or not? The etymology of aesthetics as “things perceptible by the senses” is rather illuminating, I find. Stories are aesthetic when they are heard, when they are read, when they are relished, and when they are in touch with your being. In fact, the idea of sensual perception in connection with the experience of fiction is expressed in a whole range of words and phrases and metaphors.

By Lyndsey Erin Shelton Under the mentorship of Dr. Darin H. Van Tassell ABSTRACT It is a widely accepted notion that a child can only be called stupid for so long before they believe it, can only be treated in a particular way for so long before that is the only way that they know. Why is that notion never applied to how we treat, address, and present religion and the religious to children and young adults? In recent years, questions have been continuously brought up about how we portray violence, sexuality, gender, race, and many other issues in popular media directed towards young people, particularly video games.
