  • Cavar Thesis Final 2020.Pdf
    Abstract: What, how, and who is transbutch? In this thesis, I examine memoirs and personal essays that define and defy boundaries between “butch" and “transmasculine" subjectivity –– and investigate my own queer experience in the process –– in order to counter the myth of an irreparable trans/ butch divide. Deemed by some to be “border wars,” conflicts between transness and butchness are emblematic of the contested (hi)stories on which the identities are founded: namely, white supremacy, colonialism, transmedicalism, and lesbian separatism/trans-exclusionary radical fem- inism. Ensuing identity-battles –– which have increased with increased access to biomedical transition –– rely on a teleological approach to identity, and, I argue, may only be ameliorated by prioritizing experiential multiplicity and political affinity over fixed, essential truth. Through en- gagement with a variety of personal narratives by authors such as S. Bear Bergman, Ivan Coyote, Rae Spoon, and blogger MainelyButch, I counter the understanding of identity as intrinsic and immutable, showing instead the dynamism of transbutch life, its stretchiness as a personal and community signifier, and its constant re-definition by its occupants. 2 Enacting Transbutch: Queer Narratives Beyond Essentialism BY: SARAH LYNN CAVAR Bachelor of Arts Mount Holyoke College South Hadley, MA 2020 3 Acknowledgements: How to start but with a story. I am about to send this final document to my advisor, Jacquelyne Luce, in anticipation of a thesis defense that is as I write this only days away. Without her sup- port and guidance at every stage –– all the way from a disorganized 120-page Google Doc of notes to the PDF you now read –– this thesis would not be possible.

  • Strategic Performances of Race in African American and Chicana/O Literatures
    Border Crossings: Passing and Other[ed] Strategic Performances of Race in African American and Chicana/o Literatures Melanie A. Hernandez A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2013 Reading Committee: Sonnet Retman, Chair Michelle Habell-Pallán Habiba Ibrahim Program Authorized to Offer Degree: English Hernandez 2 ©Copyright 2013 Melanie A. Hernandez Hernandez 3 University of Washington Abstract Border Crossings: Passing and Other(ed) Strategic Performances of Race in African American and Chicana/o Literatures Melanie A. Hernandez Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Sonnet Retman, Associate Professor Department of American Ethnic Studies This project begins with an analysis of racial passing narratives, and considers the ways that the genre provides a useful deconstructive tool to better understand essence-based productions of race and racial authenticity within Chicana/o assimilation narratives. Through their critical exploration of the performative aspects of race, passing novels expose the fissures within these essentialist logics and in so doing they lodge their protest against the conditions under which passing could occur. I explore the ways that writers and artists have strategically used genre, knowing that readers will approach the text with a set of expectations, only to complicate the narrative while still operating within its formal conventions. This project maps strategic manipulations of genre as the primary tool to produce racial identities or exploit preexisting notions of race and gender with the aim to Hernandez 4 resist marginalization. I focus on the political discursive practices within both genres that judge passing and assimilation at the level of the individual.

  • Speculating a Chicana Identity Ritch Calvin SUNY Stony Brook
    Ritch Calvin Isabella Ríos and Victuum AMERICAN@ ISSN:1695-7814 Vol. III. Issue 1 Isabella Ríos and Victuum: Speculating a Chicana Identity Ritch Calvin SUNY Stony Brook Let us, then, attempt explanation, not with the fantasy of the novelist, but with an intuition supported by the facts of history and science. (José Vasconcelos) No basta adaptarnos a una sociedad que cambia en la superficie y permanece idéntica en la raíz. No basta imitar los modelos que se nos proponen y que son la respuesta a otras circunstancias que las nuestras. No basta siquiera descubrir lo que somos. Hay que inventarnos. (Rosario Castellanos)1 The Chicana social predicament necessitates a reconsideration of both the “idealized past” and the “future perfect.” (Alvina E. Quintana) Abstract Resumen Key Words: Isabella Rios, Victuum, patriarchal family, Chican@ science fiction novel, identity. Palabras Clave: Isabella Rios, Victuum, familia patriarcal, novela de ciencia ficción Chican@, identidad. Given my own literary aesthetic, given my own cultural and social history, I tend to not like realist fiction. Give me Virginia Woolf’s Mrs. Dalloway over George Eliot’s Middlemarch any day of the week. I obtain enormous pleasure from reading the transformative novels of the Latin American “Boom” writers such as Gabriel García Márquez, Isabel Allende, Mario Vargas Llosa, Clarice Lispector, Julio Cortázar, Cristina Perri Rosi, and Carlos Fuentes. These novels challenge the reader’s preconceptions of narrative form and content. They challenge foundational understandings of history and society and identity. And in some ways, many of the Latina/o Ritch Calvin Isabella Ríos and Victuum writers within the U.S.
