  • The Plumed Serpant
    The Plumed Serpant D H Lawrence Chapter 1 - Beginnings Of A Bull-Fight It was the Sunday after Easter, and the last bull-fight of the season in Mexico City. Four special bulls had been brought over from Spain for the occasion, since Spanish bulls are more fiery than Mexican. Perhaps it is the altitude, perhaps just the spirit of the western Continent which is to blame for the lack of 'pep', as Owen put it, in the native animal. Although Owen, who was a great socialist, disapproved of bull- fights, 'We have never seen one. We shall have to go,' he said. 'Oh yes, I think we must see it,' said Kate. 'And it's our last chance,' said Owen. Away he rushed to the place where they sold tickets, to book seats, and Kate went with him. As she came into the street, her heart sank. It was as if some little person inside her were sulking and resisting. Neither she nor Owen spoke much Spanish, there was a fluster at the ticket place, and an unpleasant individual came forward to talk American for them. It was obvious they ought to buy tickets for the 'Shade.' But they wanted to economize, and Owen said he preferred to sit among the crowd, therefore, against the resistance of the ticket man and the onlookers, they bought reserved seats in the 'Sun.' The show was on Sunday afternoon. All the tram-cars and the frightful little Ford omnibuses called camions were labelled Torero, and were surging away towards Chapultepec. Kate felt that sudden dark feeling, that she didn't want to go.

  • EXPOSE YOURSELF to ART Towards a Critical Epistemology of Embarrassment
    EXPOSE YOURSELF TO ART Towards a Critical Epistemology of Embarrassment Gwyneth Siobhan Jones Goldsmiths University of London PhD Thesis 2013 1 I declare that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Gwyneth Siobhan Jones 2 ABSTRACT This thesis investigates the negative affect of ‘spectatorial embarrassment’, a feeling of exposure and discomfort sometimes experienced when looking at art. Two particular characteristics of embarrassment figure in the methodology and the outcome of this enquiry; firstly that embarrassment is marginal, of little orthodox value, and secondly, it is a personal experience of aversive self-consciousness. The experiential nature of embarrassment has been adopted throughout as a methodology and the embarrassments analysed are, for the most part, my own and based on ‘true’ experience. Precedent for this is drawn from ‘anecdotal theory’, which uses event and occasion in the origination of a counter-theory that values minor narratives of personal experience in place of the generalising and abstract tendencies of theory-proper. The context is a series of encounters with artworks by Gilbert & George, Jemima Stehli, Franko B, Adrian Howells, and Sarah Lucas. They are connected by their contemporaneity, their ‘British-ness’, and that they allow the spectator no comfortable position to look from. This enquiry engages with theories of ‘the gaze’ (as both aesthetic disinterest and a dubious sign of cultural competence) and the challenge to aesthetic disinterest made by ‘transgressive art’ which may provoke a more engaged, even embodied response. Each encounter sparks consideration of differing causes and outcomes of embarrassment that resonate beyond art to broader sociocultural territories particularly in terms of gender and class.

    OREGON CHAPTER NEWSLETTER A llADST IRREGULAR PUBLICATION No. 38 July 25, 1985 CHAPTER BIRTHDAY PARTY The Pacific Northwest Library Association will hold its seventy-fifth annual conference in Eugene, August 21-24, 1985. The theme will be "Models for Excellence" and libraries from the Pacific Northwest will be displaying examples of projects and programs reflecting the best of current library practice. On Thursday, August 22, following the late afternoon sessions, ACRL/Oregon Chapter will ceIebrate its tenth birthday with a party. All conference participants, particularly those with an interest in academic libraries, are invited. Refreshments will be served and a short ceremony will be held. A history of the Chapter, compiled by Perry Morrison and Richard Heinzkill, will be available to each institution in the state.' In the spirit of the conference theme, the ACRL/Oregon Board wishes to extend a special invitation to all Chapter members to attend this celebration of excellence. FALL CONFERENCE NOTES The sixth annual joint fall conference for Oregon and Washington Chapters of ACRL will be held October 24-25 at Pack Forest, Washington. "Changing Course: Restructuring Academic Libraries' will be the focus. The primary speaker is B.J. Husch. Area Coordinator for the Humanities and Social Sciences Library, University of Alberta.
