General Editor's Introduction General Editor’s Introduction PAISLEY CURRAH ike any new transdisciplinary area, at the moment of trans studies emergence L there were no conventions limiting what one could look at, no particular sets of methodological processes one must follow, no “proper objects” (Butler 1994). Before Sandy Stone launched the field with the appearance in 1991 of “The Empire Strikes Back: A Posttranssexual Manifesto,” the study of all things trans had pretty much been limited to pathologizing medical and psychiatric discourses (1991). After its publication, the horizons seemed endless. Since then, the truly trans- disciplinary side of trans studies—distinct from the medical and psychological literatures, which, if no longer explicitly pathologizing, are certainly disciplinarily bound—has made possible the comingling of things that are not supposed to go together: biological and text-based disciplines, or the study of humans and the study of other animals, to give just two examples. But it’s difficult for a new area of inquiry to maintain its transdisciplinarity for very long. If it is to survive, it must adopt at least some of the conventions of a discipline. As institutional formations, disciplines matter in important and concrete ways. The differences between how disciplines organize the production of knowledge justify the existence of departments and programs, jobs, grants, and publication opportunities. Emerging areas of inquiry have no departments and no academic jobs, and fewer grant opportunities. If editors and hiring committees think the object of your research is weird, or if your evidence seems nonsensical, it’s much more difficult to get published. Important work gets done in the institutional homes that disciplines offer. Without material support, the potential originality and importance of the work done by those swinging without a net may never be realized and recognized. It’s at this point that any transdisciplinary apparatus—in this case, trans studies—is at risk of solidifying, of foreclosing more possibilities than it opens up. Absorption into the institutional matrices of knowledge production can lead to regularizing the use of the concepts, the methods, and the kinds of questions TSQ: Transgender Studies Quarterly * Volume 6, Number 1 * February 2019 1 DOI 10.1215/23289252-7253440 ª 2019 Duke University Press Downloaded from https://read.dukeupress.edu/tsq/article-pdf/6/1/1/560253/1currah.pdf by FLORIDA STATE UNIV user on 06 April 2019 2 TSQ * Transgender Studies Quarterly that first made it innovative. Over time, the specific practices that bind trans studies into a recognizable and increasingly legitimate area of inquiry get rou- tinized. What were once particularly innovative moves can crystallize into neces- sary citations for newcomers. Canons form, antinormativity becomes normative, what was once new becomes derivative. Moreover, the mechanisms that produce distributive injustice in the academy, such as institutional prestige, private capital, white privilege, and location in the global north, begin to matter a great deal in deciding what work is seen, what work counts, what work must be cited. Rather than rejecting disciplinarity and all that it brings, then, it might be better to recognize that trans studies has by now consolidated into something, even if that something turns out to be (conceptually and methodologically) evasive, contingent, allergic to stasis. As Stanley Fish reminds us, “the fact that a self-advertised unity is really a grab-bag of disparate elements held together by the conceptual equivalent of chicken-wire, or by shifting political and economic alliances, or by a desire to control the production and dissemination of knowledge, does not make the unity disappear; it merely shows what the unity is made of, not that it isn’t one” (Fish 1995: 74). Indeed, by being aware of its proto-disciplinary status, we may be better positioned to avert the downsides of disciplinarity. Another foundational trans studies text, Susan Stryker’s 1994 essay, “My Words to Victor Frankenstein above the Village of Chamounix,” with its depic- tion of noncompliant rage-fueled transsexual monsters, was an extraordinarily effective refusal both of genre policing—it was both performance and theory, narrative and analysis—and of the discourses (abjection, pathologization, false consciousness, even liberal humanism) that corralled trans subjectivity into reassuringly familiar forms (1994). Stone and Stryker produced their work outside the academy, outside of disciplinary structures, yet together they birthed a new (inter- or trans-) discipline. As trans studies grows in the academy, the task of TSQ is to ensure that devastatingly original work continues to grace its pages. That work may not look like what came before it. Indeed, it might even reject some of its foundational assumptions, just as our Ur-texts refused the discourses that pre- ceded them. As part of this challenge, I invited two emerging scholars, Andrea Long Chu and Emmett Harsin Drager, to give TSQ readers their take on trans studies thus far. As you will see, they do not pull their punches. Since this is a general issue rather than a theme essay, the contributions to this issue do not fall under any particular theme. Collectively, however, the assortment of subjects, authors, methods, and regions represented in this issue demonstrate the catholic approach to the study of gender that TSQ aims to preserve. The publication of this issue marks an end to my tenure as general coeditor. TSQ made its debut in 2014, but my coeditor Susan Stryker and I had been working on bringing it into being—shopping around a proposal, developing Downloaded from https://read.dukeupress.edu/tsq/article-pdf/6/1/1/560253/1currah.pdf by FLORIDA STATE UNIV user on 06 April 2019 CURRAH * General Editor’s Introduction 3 an editorial board, putting out our first call for papers, and getting articles in the production pipeline—since at least 2009. As anyone who has edited a journal will attest, ten years is more than enough time to devote to such an all-consuming project. While there have been the inevitable frustrations, delays, and mistakes— word-count screwups seem to be my particular specialty—I couldn’t have had a better companion on this journey than Susan. In addition to her own brilliance as a scholar, as a coeditor she is absolutely unflappable, a freakishly fast writer of beautiful prose, and an awesome scout for new talent. I am also indebted beyond measure to the indefatigable Abraham Weil, our editorial assistant, who is starting a new job at California State University, Long Beach. I am delighted to be replaced by Francisco J. Galarte, who has generously agreed to join Susan as a general coeditor.

Binnie, however, depicts the daily effects of capitalism on regimenting sleep routines, rendering insomnia not as a glamorous all-night adventure but as a “boring” daily struggle, akin to Maria’s exhausting experience of navigating trauma. Though this novel offers generic promises of self-discovery, recovery, and trans epiphany/catharsis, it inevitably frustrates all possibilities for its heroine’s self-growth, thus challenging fictions about using self-care to “overcome” disability and gender-based violence. In exposing the narrative process by which insomnia is constructed, this crip reading of Nevada reimagines the representational possibilities for bodies that fail to sleep. Keywords insomnia, Imogen Binnie, disability, crip, queer This could be the beginning of an all-night odyssey, like Eyes Wide Shut or something. —Imogen Binnie, Nevada mogen Binnie’s queer/trans novel Nevada (2013) portrays disability as both I traumatic and boring, a mundane experience of daily isolation. As a narrative that grapples with the everyday consequences of gender-based violence on trans women, Nevada presents twenty-nine-year-old Maria Griffith’s strategies for envi- sioning but ultimately avoiding self-care. While Maria narrates her experience of living with a range of disabilities including anxiety, depression, and posttrau- matic stress disorder, the culmination of feelings that Maria experiences (and dis- associates from) all converge in her profound inability to sleep. Nevada thereby 1 offers a narrative model for cripping insomnia, of reimagining insomnia as an embodied difference that could be valued instead of cured.

Apoyada por el Partido Comunista, se convirtió en el más grande grupo político de mujeres antes de la presidencia de Juan Perón (1946-1955). Movilizó a miles de mujeres de diferentes clases, etnias, religiones, perspectivas políticas, y regiones. A través de la elaboración de ropa y otras actividades concretas, y el uso de símbolos como la V de la Victoria, la Junta difundió el antifascismo y lo hizo atractivo a un gran número de personas. La contribución específica de la Junta a la lucha contra el fascismo fue su intento por democratizar el sistema político mediante la incorporación de diversas mujeres, así como también modelando las prácticas cívicas igualitarias, y popularizando su mensaje. Palabras clave: Mujeres – Antifascismo - Partido Comunista – Democracia. Abstract The Junta de la Victoria (1941-1947) was a female antifascist organization that promoted democracy and sent aid to the Allies during World War II. Supported by the Communist Party, it became the largest women’s political group before Juan Perón’s presidency (1946-1955). It mobilized thousands of women of different classes, ethnicities, religions, political perspectives, and regions. Through the making of clothing and other concrete activities, and the use of symbols such as the V for victory, the Junta spread antifascism and made it attractive to a huge number of persons.

It features 15 essays that envision a feminist critique of the production Università degli studi di Napoli of knowledge that contributes today, intentionally or not, to new “L’Orientale” forms of discrimination, hierarchy control, and exclusion. Opposing the skepticism towards the viability of Humanities and Social Sciences in the era of ‘banking education’, marketability, and the so-called technological rationalization, these essays inquiry into teaching practices of non- institutional education and activism. They practice methodological ‘diversions’ of feminist intervention A feminist critique into Black studies, Childhood studies, Heritage studies, Visual studies, and studies of Literature. of knowledge production They venture into different research possibilities such as queering Eurocentric archives and histories. Some authors readdress Monique production A feminist critique of knowledge Wittig’s thought on literature as the Trojan horse amidst academy’s walls, the war-machine whose ‘design and goal is to pulverize the old forms and formal conventions’. Others rely on the theoretical assumptions of minor transnationalism, deconstruction, edited by Deleuzian nomadic feminism, queer theory, women’s oral history, and Silvana Carotenuto, the theory of feminist sublime. Renata Jambrešic ´ Kirin What connects these engaged writings is the confidence in the ethics and Sandra Prlenda of art and decolonized knowledge as a powerful tool against cognitive capitalism and the increasing precarisation of human lives and working conditions that go hand in hand with the process of annihilating Humanities across Europe.

  • General Editors' Introduction
    General Editors’ Introduction SUSAN STRYKER and PAISLEY CURRAH f the critical import of this issue of TSQ, “Tranimalities,” can be narrowed to a I single focal point, it is that the human/nonhuman distinction is inextricably tied to questions of gender and sexual difference. Issue editors Eva Hayward and Jami Weinstein, along with the authors whose work they have selected for inclusion, collectively argue that to be human has meant taking a position in relation to sexual difference and becoming gendered (the English it, for example, has no personhood, as opposed to he and she), while to be forcibly ungendered or to become transgendered renders one’s humanness precarious. It can result in one’s status being moved toward the not-quite-human, the inhuman, the “mere” animal, or even toward death, toward a purportedly inanimate “gross material- ity.” The editors’ exquisite introduction, the feature articles, and much of the content in the journal’s recurring sections (including Harlan Weaver’s contri- bution to the New Media section, Paige Johnson’s film analysis and Anthony Wagner’s artist statement in Arts and Culture, and M. Dale Booth’s essay on recent scholarship in the Book Review section) all explore the non/human in relation to transgender at an unprecedented level of detail and theoretical sophis- tication. They plumb philosophical depths that bring transgender studies into conversation with some of the most fundamental questions we can ask about ourselves and the cosmos we experience, and in doing so they help realize the potential we originally envisioned for this journal and for the field.

  • Ethnography and Queer Translation 72 EVREN SAVCI
    Queering Translation, Translating the Queer This groundbreaking work is one of the first book-length publications to critically engage in the emerging field of research on the queer aspects of translation and interpreting studies. The volume presents a variety of theo- retical and disciplinary perspectives through fourteen contributions from both established and up-and-coming scholars in the field to demonstrate the interconnectedness between translation and queer aspects of sex, gender, and identity. The book begins with the editors’ introduction on the state of the field, providing an overview of both current and developing lines of research, and builds on this foundation to look at this research more closely, grouped around three different sections: Queer Theorizing of Translation, Case Studies of Queer Translations and Translators, and Queer Activism and Translation. This interdisciplinary approach seeks not only to shed light on this promising field of research but also to promote cross-fertilization between these disciplines toward further exploring the intersections between queer studies and translation studies, making this volume key reading for students and scholars interested in translation studies, queer studies, poli- tics, activism, and gender and sexuality studies.
