  • Country, House, Fiction Kristen Kelly Ames
    Conventions Were Outraged: Country, House, Fiction Kristen Kelly Ames A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN ENGLISH YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO June 2014 © Kristen Kelly Ames, 2014 ii ABSTRACT The dissertation traces intersections among subjectivity, gender, desire, and nation in English country house novels from 1921 to 1949. Inter-war and wartime fiction by Daphne du Maurier, Virginia Woolf, Nancy Mitford, P. G. Wodehouse, Elizabeth Bowen, and Evelyn Waugh performs and critiques conventional domestic ideals and, by extension, interrupts the discourses of power that underpin militaristic political certainties. I consider country house novels to be campy endorsements of the English home, in which characters can reimagine, but not escape, their roles within mythologized domestic and national spaces. The Introduction correlates theoretical critiques of nationalism, class, and gender to illuminate continuities among the naïve patriotism of the country house novel and its ironic figurations of rigid class and gender categories. Chapter 1 provides generic and critical contexts through a study of du Maurier’s Rebecca, in which the narrator’s subversion of social hierarchies relies upon the persistence, however ironic, of patriarchal nationalism. That queer desire is the necessary center around which oppressive norms operate only partially mitigates their force. Chapter 2 examines figures of absence in “A Haunted House,” To the Lighthouse, and Orlando. Woolf’s queering of the country house novel relies upon her Gothic figuration of Englishness, in which characters are only included within nationalist spaces by virtue of their exclusion.

    COMMENTS Cameras in Teddy Bears: Electronic Visual Surveillance and the Fourth Amendment Kent Greenfieldf Distinguished judicial figures from Justice Brandeis to Judge Posner have recognized that electronic surveillance poses a serious threat to the American public's constitutional interest in being "se- cure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects."1 In 1928, Justice Brandeis expressed alarm that the unregulated use of technology enabling the government to wiretap a telephone endangered the public's "right to be let alone-the most comprehensive of rights and the right most valued" by "civilized" people.2 He warned that "[a]s a means of espionage, writs of assistance and general war- rants are but puny instruments of tyranny and oppression when compared with wire tapping."' 3 Judge Posner, in a 1984 Seventh Circuit opinion, declared that "television surveillance is exceed- ingly intrusive,.., and inherently indiscriminate, and.., could be grossly abused-to eliminate personal privacy as understood in '4 modern Western nations." The surveillance that was the object of Judge Posner's warn- ing, electronic visual surveillance ("EVS"), is the type of govern- ment investigation that is perhaps the most dangerous to personal t A.B. 1984, Brown University; J.D.

  • A Smoking Gun:
    Why are tobacco companies allowed to spend $11/2 billion dollars per year to pro­ mote deadly products-with many of their messages intended for children? How can this situation be tolerated? How did it arise? What can we do about it? Can pro­ tection be achieved in a manner compati­ ble with free enterprise and individual freedom? How should the rights of smokers and nonsmokers be balanced? Must nonsmokers subsidize the cost of treating cigarette-induced disease? How much protection should nonsmokers have from drifting cigarette smoke? How can smokers escape from the grip of nicotine addiction and psychological dependence on smoking? Dr. Elizabeth Whelan addresses these and other important questions as she examines how the tobacco industry de­ veloped and thrived during the 20th century, creating an unprecedented chain of economic and physical dependence.
