Meaning (core) is the epiphenomenon of Sign (sur- T face). Under the rubric of this premise, translation be- comes subject to the following clinamen: a swerve of translation to the level of description. Such an attempt to establish a system of verbal linear cor- respondence as a studied description of what is seen (i.e., by a treatment of hieroglyph as phenotype, hence a new code), will of necessity be partly a subjective response, cf. Tender Buttons. Ekphrastic translation liberates the latter from the domain of service, of utility, into the realm of creativity. “HA HA,” doubt- lessly Bosse-de-Nage would exclaim/explain. 11 ’pataphilology Fig. 1.

Sometimes these texts (many of which are gathered in the epoch-marking 1998 anthology Imagining Langugae, edited by Jed Rasula and Steve McCaffery) deploy perfectly respectable philological method- ologies, but in a manner which leads to bizarre and even oth- erworldly results; at other times new philologies are invented, then deployed to produce remarkable and moving documents. Reading these works, I felt as though I had entered an alternate world in which everything I knew had somehow been subtly changed, where everything was itself and yet unsettlingly differ- ent at the same time. My interest in this ’pataphilological file, as I came to think of it, was surely sustained by my fascination with, and even my love for, the philology practiced in the classics departments where 21 ’pataphilology I worked and studied. I didn’t know what ’pataphilology said about philology, or even if it said anything at all about it; I had not done much beyond recognizing that ’pataphilology seemed to share a set of gestures with its more well-known counterpart. But I am certain that that little file (to which, from time to time, I added a new work, a new name, a new idea) contributed to my engagement with classical philology. So I was delighted when the neologism, which I had never even said out loud, appeared in print in 2013, in an article by James Zetzel called “The Bride of Mercury: Confessions of a ’Pataphilologist.”1 Surveying Roman textual scholarship in later antiquity, Zetzel imagined that it was practically impossible to tell philology and ’pataphilology apart. I wouldn’t say that about my ’pataphilologists — what they do is very different from philology as I know it — but Zetzel’s argu- ment is entirely concerned with scholarly practices that belong to the “mainstream,” even to the Grand Tradition of European literary learning.

Conclusion 15 Works Cited 17 Appendix A Translation 18 Appendix B Source Text 30 3 Introduction In 2012, Irvine Welsh’s book Skagboys was published. This prequel of the cult classic Trainspotting completed the Trainspotting Trilogy, consisting of Trainspotting, Porno and Skagboys. It follows the characters Mark Renton, Simon ‘Sick Boy’ Williamson, Daniel ‘Spud’ Murphy and Frances Begbie in their journey from relatively innocent teenagers to young men addicted to heroin, who will do anything in the chase for their next shot. This group of friends, situated in the harbour city of Leith, consists of many different personalities. Mark Renton is the semi-intellectual one who leads a double life as a student at the university of Aberdeen where he hides from the problems created by society, his friends and his severely handicapped brother. Sick Boy uses his intellect and his charm to get what he wants, especially from the other sex. Spud is a naive man with a heart of gold who has been unlucky his entire life and always sees the good in other people. Begbie is a severely aggressive alcoholic who detests everything to do with drugs. Together they depict the victims of the drug scene that was booming in Edinburgh and of the society that had no place for people like them.

E-mail: [email protected] ORCID: 0000-0002-8257-650X Received: 29/11/2016. Accepted: 25/02/2017 How to cite this article: Rivera Izquierdo, Ángela. “Befriending the Other: Community and Male Camaraderie in Irvine Welsh’s Trainspotting.” ES Review. Spanish Journal of English Studies 38 (2017): 89‒112. DOI: https://doi.org/10.24197/ersjes.38.2017.89-112 Abstract: Set in post-Thatcherite Scotland, critics generally agree that Irvine Welsh’s Trainspotting (1993) mirrors the emergence of rampant individualism and the disintegration of working-class communities in the UK. To support this view, they consider the lack of a sense of fraternity in the group and the characters’ fear of intimacy as indicative of individualism. However, it is possible to see Welsh’s ‘trainspotters’ not as atomised individuals, but as members of an alternative communitarian assemblage, as theorised in continental, post- phenomenological philosophy. Using a masculinities approach, this paper proves that the characters’ emotional detachment is representative of homosocial interactions among men trying to adhere to idealised types of masculinity and that, therefore, cannot be restricted to their alleged individualistic character. Contrarily, the kind of male friendship that Welsh describes can be considered as a paradigmatic example of Jean-Luc Nancy’s conception of the inoperative community, characterized by transcendence and exposure to alterity.

The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. David Mitchell’s Cloud Atlas: “Revolutionary or Gimmicky?” A thesis presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Arts in English at Massey University, Manawatu, New Zealand. Sarah Jane Johnston-Ellis 2010 The right of Sarah Johnston-Ellis to be identified as the Author of the Work has been asserted by her in accordance with the Copyright Act 1994. ii For Eva, Henry and Justin iii iv Abstract This thesis will examine David Mitchell’s use of postmodern narrative structures and strategies in Cloud Atlas and how these relate to his overtly political concerns regarding relations of power between individuals and between factions. This will involve a discussion of debates surrounding the political efficacy of postmodern narrative forms. I will consider Mitchell’s prolific use of intertextual and intratextual allusion and his mimicry of a wide range of narrative modes and genres. These techniques, along with the complex structural iterations in the novel and the ‘recurrence’ of characters between its parts, appear to reinforce a thematic concern with the interconnectedness — indeed, the repetition — of human activity, through time and a fatalistic conception of being that draws on two central Nietzschean notions, eternal recurrence and the will to power. The vision of humanity and human relations of power that is expressed within Cloud Atlas is open to extended analysis in Foucauldian terms.

Many versions of the future represent dystopian societies. While the word dystopia often evokes images of hellish landscapes or militarized super-cities, the word dystopia simply implies “a dis-placement of our reality.”1 Dystopias usually originate from social or political conditions of the present.

    Dedication: 3/15/05 I dedicate this collection to my friends Orville and Evelyn Brynelson and my parents George and Marion Greenwald. I especially thank James Steckel, Barbara Zbikowski, Gustavo Betancourt, and Joshua Ellis, colleagues and computer experts extraordinaire, for their invaluable assistance. Kathy Hart, MUHS librarian, was most helpful in suggesting sources. I further thank Gaylan DuBose, Ed Long, Hugh Himwich, Susan Schearer, Gardy Warren, and Kaye Warren for their encouragement and advice. My former students and now Classics professors Daniel Curley and Anthony Hollingsworth also deserve mention for their advice, assistance, and friendship. My student Michael Kocorowski encouraged and provoked me into beginning this dictionary. Certamen players Michael Fleisch, James Ruel, Jeff Tudor, and Ryan Thom were inspirations. Sue Smith provided advice. James Radtke, James Beaudoin, Richard Hallberg, Sylvester Kreilein, and James Wilkinson assisted with words from modern foreign languages. Without the advice of these and many others this dictionary could not have been compiled. Lastly I thank all my colleagues and students at Marquette University High School who have made my teaching career a joy. Basic sources: American College Dictionary (ACD) American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language (AHD) Oxford Dictionary of English Etymology (ODEE) Oxford English Dictionary (OCD) Webster’s International Dictionary (eds. 2, 3) (W2, W3) Liddell and Scott (LS) Lewis and Short (LS) Oxford Latin Dictionary (OLD) Schaffer: Greek Derivative Dictionary, Latin Derivative Dictionary In addition many other sources were consulted; numerous etymology texts and readers were helpful. Zeno’s Word Frequency guide assisted in determining the relative importance of words. However, all judgments (and errors) are finally mine.
