Inherent in this volume’s production was the challenge of following the new, innovative first volume, demonstrating the extent to which the journal has grown and developed, whilst simultaneously retaining the “sound” that people associate with the first “album”. The first volume of Exclamat!on was a gamble: as editors, we had little, if any, experience, and there were plenty of lessons learned. Moving forward with this second volume we endeavoured not to be complacent. We sought to facilitate the journal’s expansion and development, and to ensure that it will continue once our individual tenures as editors comes to an end. As such, the first development was to thematise this second volume. The idea of ‘identities’ is a fundamental one within our society, as well as a topical theme within academia, and one which we felt spoke to all aspects of English, Creative Writing and Film. Identities are negotiable, fluid and contingent on context, and it is the ways in which ‘identities’ can be read and interrogated that forms the basis of the articles, short stories and poems in this collection. In order to orchestrate the growth of the journal, this year we opened our call for submissions to research and taught postgraduates from across the UK. Despite being a fledgling publication, we were thrilled to receive such an excellent array of submissions, and are delighted to be able to include pieces by people from several universities. As Exclamat!on grows in reputation, we hope that the number of submissions will continue to increase, whilst maintaining the already established high quality and ethos of the journal. Finally, next year will see a change of personnel, as Sarah-Jayne completes her PhD, and Teresa will be joined by a new co-editor, thereby ensuring both continuity and development. This volume is being launched at the inaugural Exclamat!on conference, the theme of which - ‘Networks and Connections’ – also constitutes the theme of the third volume, to be published in the vii summer of 2019. In initiating this theme a whole year in advance, and having a conference on the subject, we have sought to invite potential contributors to present their work, begin conversations, as well as to create their own ‘networks and connections’. Postgraduate students are the academics of the future; their peers are the colleagues who will undertake the journey with them. We are therefore proud to be playing our part in encouraging discussion, collaboration and intellectual development. We could not have produced this volume without support. We would therefore like to thank our editorial team for all of their hard work, from overseeing the peer review process, to copyediting, to promoting Exclamat!on via our new social media platforms. We are indebted to colleagues – both internally and externally – for peer reviewing at a busy and challenging time within Higher Education. We are also grateful to the University of Exeter’s College of Humanities Postgraduate Activities Award and Doctoral College’s Researcher-Led Initiative Award for funding the journal. Finally, We would like to thank Cathryn Baker, PGR Support Officer within the University of Exeter’s HASS team, for her unwavering enthusiasm and support. We think this “second album” is, in some ways, better than the first. The development of the thematic material, the variety and blend of the voices, as well as the greater confidence and experience of the editorial team have combined to produce a volume which, we believe, strikes the right chord and will be hailed as a classic. Teresa Sanders & Sarah-Jayne Ainsworth viii Exclamat!on: An Interdisciplinary Journal 2 Towards a Post-Identity Future: Gloria Anzaldúa on Disability and Minority Identity Politics Elaine Ruth Boe Nothing is fixed. The pulse of existence, the heart of the universe, is fluid. Identity, like a river, is always changing, always in transition, always in nepantla.1 Gloria Anzaldúa’s writing has entered scholarly discourses through feminism, Chicana studies, political activism, race theory, and queer criticism. Much scholarship has explored the importance of the body in Anzaldúa’s texts, and scholars have now begun to consider how disability studies might offer new perspectives. Anzaldúa strove to ‘write from the body’, because she supposes ‘that’s why we’re in a body’.2 The increasing popularity of disability studies and the publication of an email correspondence between Anzaldúa and AnaLouise Keating in The Gloria Anzaldúa Reader have lent momentum to a disability studies approach to Anzaldúa’s writing. Anzaldúa felt her hormonal imbalance, hysterectomy, and diabetes were pivotal for her authorship, telling Keating, ‘[m]y resistance to gender and race injustice stemmed from my physical differences’.3 Yet Anzaldúa’s relationship to disability as an identity label is not without complications. Her ideas about selfhood, which Keating describes as a 1 Gloria Anzaldúa, ‘now let us shift… conocimiento… inner work, public acts’, in Light in the Dark/ Luz en lo Oscuro: Rewriting Identity, Spirituality, Reality, ed. by AnaLouise Keating (Durham: Duke University Press, 2015), pp. 117-159 (p. 135). 2 Gloria Anzaldua,́ ‘Turning Points: An Interview with Linda Smuckler (1982)’, in Interviews/Entrevistas, ed. by AnaLouise Keating (New York: Routledge, 2000), pp. 17-70 (p. 63). 3 Gloria Anzaldua,́ ‘Last Words? Spirit Journeys: An Interview with AnaLouise Keating (1998-1999)’, in Interviews/Entrevistas, ed. by AnaLouise Keating (New York: Routledge, 2000) pp. 281-291 (p. 288). 1 Boe | Towards a Post-Identity Future ‘global citizenship of sorts’, conflict with certain disability theorists.4 Since Anzaldúa thought of herself as a model for others to ‘take these ideas, think about and expand on them’, this essay explores Anzaldúa’s relationship to disability and the body in light of debates on minority identity politics.5 For Anzaldúa, identification through externals such as disability, race, or sexuality will not bring about the revolution in society’s hierarchies she desires. She looks beyond the scope of many disability theorists; she looks forward to changing the world. I base Anzaldúa’s theory of disability identity on her 2003 email exchange with Keating. In the email, Anzaldúa does not identify as disabled or diabetic.6 Yet, she does not ‘deny or reject the fact that [she is] disabled’, adding that she does not ‘feel distanced from [her] “disability”’.7 This essay does not aim to label Anzaldúa as disabled.8 Rather, it hopes to better understand why Anzaldúa rejects a disability 4 AnaLouise Keating, ‘Introduction: Reading Gloria Anzaldúa, Reading Ourselves… Complex Intimacies, Intricate Connections’, in The Gloria Anzalduá Reader, ed. by AnaLouise Keating (Durham: Duke University Press, 2009), pp. 1-15 (p. 11). 5 Gloria Anzaldua,́ ‘Making Alliances, Queerness, and Bridging Conocimientos: An Interview with Jamie Lee Evans (1993)’, in Interviews/Entrevistas, ed. by AnaLouise Keating (New York: Routledge, 2000) pp. 195-209 (p. 200). Anzaldúa scholars point out the importance of recognizing one’s subject position as a writer in relation to race, ethnicity, and social class.

    Joints of Utility, Crafts of Knowledge: The Material Culture of the Sino-British Furniture Trade during the Long Eighteenth Century Kyoungjin Bae Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2016 © 2016 Kyoungjin Bae All rights reserved ABSTRACT Joints of Utility, Crafts of Knowledge: The Material Culture of the Sino-British Furniture Trade during the Long Eighteenth Century Kyoungjin Bae This dissertation examines the material culture of the Sino-British furniture trade in the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. In the beginning of the eighteenth century, the British East India Company (EIC) began importing a large quantity of furniture made in Canton (Guangzhou), China. As the trade between Britain and China became standardized around 1720, this furniture became a part of the private trade carried out by merchants associated with Company. Unlike other objects of the China trade that fed into the vogue of chinoiserie, export furniture crafted with hardwoods from the Indian Ocean was produced in European designs of the time and thus was often indistinguishable from its Western counterparts. What cultural and economic values did export furniture represent in the early modern maritime trade and how did it reify the trans-regional movement of knowledge and taste between China and Britain? Going beyond the conventional perspective on export Chinese objects oriented toward European reception, I connect production with consumption in order to follow the trajectory of export furniture from its origins in the intra-Asian timber trade to its requisition and manufacture in Canton to its reception and use in both Britain and China, highlighting how this process linked the disparate spheres of commerce, knowledge production and distribution, and cultural practices.

  • Reconsidering East Asian Influence in Early Twentieth-Century European Music
    BEYOND ORIENTALISM: RECONSIDERING EAST ASIAN INFLUENCE IN EARLY TWENTIETH-CENTURY EUROPEAN MUSIC By DONG JIN SHIN A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2020 © 2020 Dong Jin Shin To Leah ACKNOWLEDGMENTS There were many amazing people who made this dissertation possible. I owe debts of gratitude to my advisor, Silvio dos Santos, who had faith in me, had my back, and cheered me on until I crossed the finish line. Jennifer Thomas’ critical reading was invaluable in polishing this dissertation; I can’t say enough about how much she has cared for me with all her heart. Paul Richards kindly offered me an individual study for a semester and encouraged my humble ideas. When I first visited Ann Wehmeyer, she readily agreed to be on my committee and kindly helped with all the degree processes. Also, I would like to thank my musicology colleagues, especially Heather Bergseth, Michael Vincent, and Heidi Jensen, who showed their friendship and helped with my English. I appreciate the School of Music at the University of Florida, which has supported my research travels, presentations, and all the stages of this dissertation. It was a long and difficult journey for me to complete this dissertation due to considerable language and cultural barriers. Through the hardships, I learned valuable lessons that enabled me to grow into a better person. During my doctoral degree, I have tried not to neglect my duty as a mom and to become a good model to my daughter Leah, whose presence helped me to remain hopeful and become a stronger person.
