  • Ethnicity, Lyricism, and John Berryman's Dream Songs
    Imaginary Jews and True Confessions: Ethnicity, Lyricism, and John Berryman’s Dream Songs ANDREW GROSS . Jews, who have changed much in the course of history, are certainly no race, [but] the anti‐Semites in a way are a race, because they always use the same slogans, display the same attitudes, indeed almost look alike. —Max Horkheimer1 John Berryman’s “The Imaginary Jew,” published in the Kenyon Review of 1945, is in some ways a rather programmatic account of one man’s conversion from parlor anti‐ Semitism to a feeling of solidarity with Jews. The climax occurs when a bigot accuses the narrator of being Jewish in order to discredit him in an argument over Roosevelt’s foreign policy prior to the American entry into World War II. The accusation completely unnerves the narrator in ways he does not immediately understand, and he is shocked to see that it discredits him in the eyes of the crowd, which has assembled at Union Square to hear impromptu debates. Later, after leaving the scene of his embarrassment, he decides to lay claim to this mistaken, or imaginary, identity, and comes to the following conclusion about the nature of prejudice: “My persecutors were right: I was a Jew. The imaginary Jew I was was as real as the imaginary Jew hunted down, on other nights and days, in a real Jew. Every murderer strikes the mirror, the lash of the torturer falls on the mirror and cuts the real image, and the real and the imaginary blood flow down together.”2 The story garnered some attention when it appeared in 1945.

  • Orwell's Painful Childhood
    Orwell's painful childhood JEFFREY MEYERS RWELL was always extremely reticent about his personal affairs, so we know virtually nothing about how his O character was formed in his earliest years. He was born in 1903 in Motihari, situated on the bank of a lake in the state of Bihar, between Patna and Katmandu. His father was a sub-deputy agent in the Opium Department of the Indian Civil Service, and Orwell's family was part of that 'upper-middle class, which had its heyday in the eighties and nineties, with Kipling as its poet laureate, and was a sort of mound of wreckage left behind when the tide of Victorian prosperity receded'.1 Like Thackeray, Kipling, and Durrell, he spent his first years in India before he was sent to England at the age of four to begin school. Kipling's Something of Myself gives a lyrical description of a secure Indian childhood, protected by the gentleness and affection of bearer and ayah; and Fraser writes of Durrell that 'The Indian childhood, the heat, the colour, the Kiplingesque social atmosphere, deeply affected his childish imagination'.2 But both Thackeray and Kipling stress the wrenching trauma of leaving India at five years old. In The Newcombes, Thackeray writes : What a strange pathos seems to me to accompany all our Indian story! . The family must be broken up . In America it is from the breast of a poor slave that a child is taken; in India it is from the wife.3 Kipling's 'Baa Baa Black Sheep' describes his sudden and painful departure from servants and parents ('through no fault of their own, they had lost all their world'), and the horrors of an alien family that engulfs him with meanness and cruelty.

  • EVELYN WAUGH NEWSLETTER and STUDIES Vol
    EVELYN WAUGH NEWSLETTER AND STUDIES Vol EVELYN WAUGH NEWSLETTER AND STUDIES Vol. 33, No. 3 Winter 2003 Wights Errant: Suffixal Sound Symbolism in the Novels of Evelyn Waugh by Simon Whitechapel He who hesitates is lost. Particularly in the novels of Evelyn Waugh, where little serves to damn a character as readily as hesitation and uncertainty. In the prologue to Brideshead Revisited (1945), for example, Charles Ryder accompanies his C.O. on an inspection of the camp: ‘Look at that,’ said the commanding officer. ‘Fine impression that gives to the regiment taking over from us.’ ‘That’s bad,’ I said. ‘It’s a disgrace. See that everything there is burned before you leave camp.’ ‘Very good, sir. Sergeant-major, send over to the carrier-platoon and tell Captain Brown that the C.O. wants this ditch cleared up.’ I wondered whether the colonel would take this rebuff; so did he. He stood irresolutely prodding the muck in the ditch, then he turned on his heel and strode away.1 The C.O. is never named, perhaps because Waugh had already bestowed his favorite suffix of contempt on another character in the prologue, Hooper, who accordingly joins Beaver, Trimmer, Atwater, Dr Messinger, Mulcaster, Corker, Salter, Lord Copper, Peter Pastmaster, Box-Bender, Pennyfeather, and Ryder among what might be called Waugh’s wights errant. The last two characters, who are partly autobiographical, prove that Waugh did not spare himself: Paul Pennyfeather, the hero of Decline and Fall (1928), suffers misfortune after misfortune because he is too trusting and unassertive, and Charles Ryder, the narrator of Brideshead, though perhaps partly shielded by his patrician “y”, is still worthy of serious blame for his behavior.

  • His Fable, Right Or Left: Orwell, Animal Farm, and the Politics of Critical Reception Erik Jaccard
    His Fable, Right or Left: Orwell, Animal Farm, and the Politics of Critical Reception Erik Jaccard In “My Country Right or Left,” George Orwell attempts to synthesize two contradictory aspects of his political belief system. On the one hand, he was by this time fully committed to the international socialist cause, and more specifically to the development of English socialism in Britain. On the other, the beginning of the Second World War had led Orwell to question the value and function of his patriotism for an England he loved, but which he considered “the most class- ridden country under the sun” (Essays 303). Orwell ultimately fused this contradiction by deciding that it was only in supporting the British war effort—and thus British victory—that conditions for the emergence of socialism could ever emerge. This position allowed him, at least for a time, to fuse conventionally rightist and leftist frameworks into a unified whole: patriotically supporting the war enabled the survival of the nation and the possibility of a socialist future, while leftist critique of British capitalism hastened the breakdown of exploitative class relations, and thus worked toward that same future. Unpacking this contradiction and the historical conditions that shaped it is central to understanding the history of critical debate about Animal Farm. Orwell wrote “My Country Right or Left” in 1940, as the German blitzkrieg was racing unchecked across Western Europe and the Battle of Britain raged above English cities.This situation directly informed Orwell’s position: adopt a traditionally conservative patriotic stance so as to keep a traditionally leftist hope for socialism alive.

  • Read the Exhibition Text by the Artist
    During my three months in residency at Griffin Art Projects I have been writing and editing a longstanding work in progress: laying out my interest in a group who came into themselves in 1920’s London called The Bright Young People. Known for their prodigious poetic talents as for their dandyism, and in retrospect for the tragic dissipation of their promise; the dandy being forever doomed to defeat as a part of their enterprise. Their generation was caught between in the shadow of one war and the accumulating shadows of another: a transitory penumbra where homosexuality was permitted to thrive. The provisional freedoms they enjoyed have become analogies for similarly bracketed moments of aesthetic energy, coupled with cultural tragedy, from which my work has always been drawn: the erudition and aesthetics at work within the production of erotic material during the early years of gay-liberation, all but laid waste by the AIDS crisis; and the brief ascent of art-for-art’s-sake put forth by James McNeill Whistler and his set in the late nineteenth century who indulged their twin obsessions: Japonisme, and the disruption of Victorian social mores, during the fragile preamble to the upheavals of the coming century. Writer Nancy Mitford, who belonged to the Bright Young People, wrote in her essay Reading for Pleasure (1952): “I still read more biography, memoires and letters than anything else; I like to get into some lively set, and observe its behaviour. The Encyclopaedists or Byron and his friends are supreme entertainers, but any small society will provide an interesting study in human relationships if one or two of its members can write.” For this exhibition I am interested in the impulses within intimate milieux, whether dandy, bohemian, Beat, or otherwise, which prioritize aesthetic and social ideals - often to the point of fantasy - as a form of insolence to the general sway of philistinism and moral indignation that dominates.

Reading and writing played a significant role in the home-life of young Evelyn, whose older brother Alec also became a well-known writer. Waugh began writing and illustrating short stories at the age of four, and at the age of nine he and a group of friends produced a creative magazine for their Pistol Troop club. In addition to his youthful interest in writing, Waugh developed a strong interest in religion. When his brother's escapades made it impossible for Waugh to follow the family tradition of attending Sherbourne prep school, his father found a place for him at Lancing, a school with a strong religious tradition.
