Lawrence Martin Dean of the Graduate School ii Abstract of the Dissertation Orphans and Class Anxiety in Nineteenth-century English Novels by Junghan Choi Doctor of Philosophy in English Stony Brook University 2008 This dissertation discusses the most popular outsiders in nineteenth- century English novels|orphans. Both real and ¯ctional orphans are often known to formulate the threatening force that disturbs conventional domesticity and obscures social boundaries, for with- out heritage or parentage an individual in the nineteenth century is home-less, name-less, and class-less. Suggesting Mary Shel- ley's creature in Frankenstein as the ¯rst orphan prototype in nineteenth-century novels, this dissertation shows the inevitable tension between orphans and society. However, this study also argues that literary orphan characters encourage purposeful sepa- iii ration from domestic history and pursue self-reformation rejecting social and cultural interference. Novels that I have chosen insist upon legal and cultural transformation concerning the marginal- ized, but most of all they provide compelling stories that endanger orphans' physical and psychological stabilization yet shelter their individualities from domestic imprisonment. The prevalent class anxiety and social prejudice could discourage the self-development of this trope of outsiders, but I argue that they intentionally dis- possess domesticity and reject tearful familial reunion because they ¯nd conventional social de¯nition unnecessary and iniquitous. The examination of these unique orphan characters does not provide a historically accurate portrayal of \real" orphans. This study as- sumes that "real" orphans su®ered from extensive economical and familial di±culties and those literary orphans enjoy the privilege of orphan-hood recreated by BrontÄe,Eliot, Collins, Thackeray, Craik and Dickens. iv Contents Acknowledgements vii 1 Introduction 1 1.1 The Obstinate Reality Remains Undisturbed.

Chapter 1 Introduction Outsiders create social and political tension as soon as they enter a sta- bilized society. In the name of progress and assimilation, outsiders pressure those within to accept their strangeness and attempt to transcend their own di®erence. Yet how do they appeal to these inside residents when their ex- istence personi¯es immorality and illegitimacy? Or how do they demand ac- ceptance when they deliberately choose transgression and alienation? The abandoned, the alienated, the ignored-orphans can be considered an emerging force for disruption within the domestic sphere, but this study underscores the potential social flexibility and mobility encouraged by the disturbing yet enlightening representation of orphans in nineteenth-century English novels. Such orphans suggest a revision of conventional Victorian domesticity and the creation of distinct individualities separate from domestic history. Ex- amining orphan characters leads to de¯ning their formulation of autonomous individuality as a necessary procedure to achieve social mobility and cultural acceptance. In the novels that I discuss, orphans' denial of their own identities 1 does not guarantee assimilation; in fact, it only accentuates their destabilized selfhood. The internal acknowledgment of their unconventionality digni¯es their self-identity, which ironically leads to the more a®able relationship. The profoundly meaningful and intimate relationship between orphans and society may depend upon their ability to extend and negotiate principles of traditional domesticity and ideologies, while preserving their eccentricities. Julia Kristeva describes orphans' internal frustration and substantiation of their identities most e®ectively in Strangers to Ourselves. She writes: To be deprived of parents|is that where freedom starts? Cer- tainly foreigners become intoxicated with that independence, and undoubtedly their very exile is at ¯rst no more than a challenge to parental overbearance. Those who have not experienced the near- hallucinatory daring of imagining themselves without parents-free of debt and duties-cannot understand the foreigners' folly, what it provides in the pleasure (\I am my sole master"), what it comprises in the way of angry homicide (\neither father nor mother, neither God nor master. "). If I tried. to share with them some of the violence that causes me to be totally on my own, they would not know where I am, who I am, what it is, in others, that rubs me the wrong way. (21-3) The impossibility of imagining orphan-hood signi¯es the di±culty of formu- lating an elemental relationship with such social outsiders. The dangerous assumption that orphans must enjoy their \freedom" aggravates themselves, and Kristeva admonishes readers that an unprepared and shallow approach would cause violence, resentment, and disconnection. However, this does not mean that society should fear orphans either. She stresses how orphans su®er from the disposition to destabilize themselves psychologically. They refrain from communication, not out of resentment, but out of social ignorance and 2 inexperience. Unaccustomed to conventional attachment, they impede their ability to connect socially, which distracts them from domestication. Kris- teva's ideas of their disorientation can be applied to literary orphan charac- ters. Orphans that I discuss question the necessity of pretentious compliant relationships and intentionally choose to remain marginalized. What happens if an orphan is forced to integrate into his or her society? Does a happy familial reunion resolve all conflicts? Is it possible to prefer alienation and isolation to cultural acceptance? The idea of complete solitude tortures orphans, as they too seek companionship and community to conceive self-identity. However, orphans like habitual travelers or strangers possess impulses to remain outsiders within foreign cultures because they appreciate the only consistent element and consolation that would not abandon them-the familiar solitude. Born without legitimate names, they are externally cursed and distanced from society, but the internalized sorrow of solitude remains constant. Therefore, they resist the familiar stability and pursue the unfamiliar territory. John Richetti summarizes the essence of ¯ctional individualities in both eighteenth-century and nineteenth-century literature: Eighteenth-century ¯ction is [important]for the understanding of this evolving entity, the socially

  • Scandal, Child Punishment and Policy Making in the Early Years of the New Poor Law Workhouse System
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by University of Lincoln Institutional Repository ‘Great inhumanity’: Scandal, child punishment and policy making in the early years of the New Poor Law workhouse system SAMANTHA A. SHAVE UNIVERSITY OF LINCOLN ABSTRACT New Poor Law scandals have usually been examined either to demonstrate the cruelty of the workhouse regime or to illustrate the failings or brutality of union staff. Recent research has used these and similar moments of crisis to explore the relationship between local and central levels of welfare administration (the Boards of Guardians in unions across England and Wales and the Poor Law Commission in Somerset House in London) and how scandals in particular were pivotal in the development of further policies. This article examines both the inter-local and local-centre tensions and policy conseQuences of the Droxford Union and Fareham Union scandal (1836-37) which exposed the severity of workhouse punishments towards three young children. The paper illustrates the complexities of union co-operation and, as a result of the escalation of public knowledge into the cruelties and investigations thereafter, how the vested interests of individuals within a system manifested themselves in particular (in)actions and viewpoints. While the Commission was a reactive and flexible welfare authority, producing new policies and procedures in the aftermath of crises, the policies developed after this particular scandal made union staff, rather than the welfare system as a whole, individually responsible for the maltreatment and neglect of the poor. 1. Introduction Within the New Poor Law Union workhouse, inmates depended on the poor law for their complete subsistence: a roof, a bed, food, work and, for the young, an education.

    Instructions for Petition to Classify Orphan as an Immediate Relative USCIS Form I-600 Department of Homeland Security OMB No. 1615-0028 U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Expires 12/31/2021 What Is the Purpose of Form I-600? U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) uses the information provided on Form I-600, Petition to Classify Orphan as an Immediate Relative, to determine whether a child who has been or will be adopted by a U.S. citizen (and spouse, if married) can be classified as an orphan for an immediate relative immigrant visa. Who May File Form I-600? If you are a U.S. citizen, you (and your spouse, if married) may file Form I-600 for an unmarried child if: 1. You file the Form I-600 before the child’s 16th birthday (or before the child’s 18th birthday in some cases, as discussed in these Instructions); 2. The child’s adoption is not governed by the Hague Convention on Protection of Children and Co-operation in Respect of Intercountry Adoption (Hague Adoption Convention); 3. The child qualifies as an orphan, as defined in the Immigration and NationalityAct (INA) section 101(b)(1)(F); and 4. You (and your spouse, if married) either: A. Have adopted the child outside the United States and the adoption order is final; or B. Have obtained legal custody of the child for emigration and adoption in the United States and will adopt the child in the United States after the child enters the country with a visa. To qualify as an adoption for immigration purposes, the adoption must, according to the laws where it takes place, establish a permanent legal parent-child relationship between the child and you (and your spouse, if married), as well as terminate the legal parent-child relationship between the child and any former parent(s).

  • ARCHITECTURE, POWER, and POVERTY Emergence of the Union
    ARCHITECTURE, POWER, AND POVERTY Emergence of the Union Workhouse Apparatus in the Early Nineteenth-Century England A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts by Gökhan Kodalak January 2015 2015, Gökhan Kodalak ABSTRACT This essay is about the interaction of architecture, power, and poverty. It is about the formative process of the union workhouse apparatus in the early nineteenth-century England, which is defined as a tripartite combination of institutional, architectural, and everyday mechanisms consisting of: legislators, official Poor Law discourse, and administrative networks; architects, workhouse buildings, and their reception in professional journals and popular media; and paupers, their everyday interactions, and ways of self-expression such as workhouse ward graffiti. A cross-scalar research is utilized throughout the essay to explore how the union workhouse apparatus came to be, how it disseminated in such a dramatic speed throughout the entire nation, how it shaped the treatment of pauperism as an experiment for the modern body-politic through the peculiar machinery of architecture, and how it functioned in local instances following the case study of Andover union workhouse. BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Gökhan Kodalak is a PhD candidate in the program of History of Architecture and Urbanism at Cornell University. He received his bachelor’s degree in architectural design in 2007, and his master’s degree in architectural theory and history in 2011, both from Yıldız Technical University, Istanbul. He is a co-founding partner of ABOUTBLANK, an inter-disciplinary architecture office located in Istanbul, and has designed a number of award-winning architectural and urban design projects in national and international platforms.

  • Magwitch's Revenge on Society in Great Expectations
    Magwitch’s Revenge on Society in Great Expectations Kyoko Yamamoto Introduction By the light of torches, we saw the black Hulk lying out a little way from the mud of the shore, like a wicked Noah’s ark. Cribbed and barred and moored by massive rusty chains, the prison-ship seemed in my young eyes to be ironed like the prisoners (Chapter 5, p.34). The sight of the Hulk is one of the most impressive scenes in Great Expectations. Magwitch, a convict, who was destined to meet Pip at the churchyard, was dragged back by a surgeon and solders to the hulk floating on the Thames. Pip and Joe kept a close watch on it. Magwitch spent some days in his hulk and then was sent to New South Wales as a convict sentenced to life transportation. He decided to work hard and make Pip a gentleman in return for the kindness offered to him by this little boy. He devoted himself to hard work at New South Wales, and eventually made a fortune. Magwitch’s life is full of enigma. We do not know much about how he went through the hardships in the hulk and at NSW. What were his difficulties to make money? And again, could it be possible that a convict transported for life to Australia might succeed in life and come back to his homeland? To make the matter more complicated, he, with his money, wants to make Pip a gentleman, a mere apprentice to a blacksmith, partly as a kind of revenge on society which has continuously looked down upon a wretched convict.

Freud's division of the human psyche into id, ego and superego is appropriate for the analysis of the rise and fall of the hero in his pursuit to attain gentlemanhood. Four main questions have been addressed: First, what makes up Pip's id? Second, what are the main components of his superego? Third, does Pip's ego succeed or fail in striking a balance between his id and superego? In what ways does it fail? And fourth, how does Pip's ego eventually succeed in striking a balance between his id and superego? The study finds out that Pip's id is demonstrated through his fascination with high-class lifestyle and relinquishment of common life.
