Nobody liked it. For the next ten years, I started telling everybody I was a genius. Now, my music is performed in theaters all over Europe and I’m receiving awards for being a genius.” It got me thinking. I would like to thank my family, friends and girlfriend for their support. Most of all, I would like to thank my supervisor for her advice and revisions. 2 Maarten Luyten Master N-E UGent Master Thesis Academiejaar 2012-2013 Debora Van Durme TABLE OF CONTENTS 1.

CONCLUSION 68 3 Maarten Luyten Master N-E UGent Master Thesis Academiejaar 2012-2013 Debora Van Durme 1. INTRODUCTION The Beat Generation is generally perceived as one of the most influential literary movements of the second half of the twentieth century and has been at the center of literary discussions over the past fifty years. Since the legendary break-through publications Howl, On the Road and Naked Lunch, this group or ‘movement,’ which was primarily represented by the ‘Beat triumvirate’ (Belgrad 2004) Ginsberg, Kerouac and Burroughs, has received plenty of media attention. Contemporary reactions to these authors and their literature expressed both ‘extravagant praise and hysterical denunciation’ (Hassan 1963). For instance, ‘in 1959 journalist Paul O’Neil proclaimed that the Beat Generation consisted mostly of “talkers, loafers, passive little con men,” a “bohemian cadre” of “writers who cannot write, painters who cannot paint”’ (Starr 2004). Similarly, Thomas Curley depicted Jack Kerouac as a talentless writer who, just like his morally deviant characters, would never be taken seriously (1957) and Alfred Chester dismissed Burroughs as an iconoclast who has ‘turned his back upon’ civilization and abandoned ‘the quest for a moral position’ (1963). On the other hand, in time these authors have been accepted as the progenitors of the beatnik- and hippie-movement (Watson 1995, 4) and are now widely recognized countercultural icons (Bennett 2005). In his Naked Angels: the Lives & Literature of the Beat Generation John Tytell describes the Beat movement as ‘a crystallization of a sweeping discontent with American “virtues” of progress and power. What began with an exploration of the bowels and entrails of the city – criminality, drugs, mental hospitals – evolved into an expression of the visionary sensibility’ (4). The Beat authors became known as nonconformist rebels and ‘naked angels’ on a quest for a ‘new vision’ (Chowka 1976) and their ‘writings (…) have long been seen as a space of cultural and political contestation’ (Haslam 2009). Holly George-Warren similarly evaluates their significance as follows: As a cultural phenomenon, the Beat Generation changed us more than any other Twentieth-Century movement; its effects are still being felt today. As a literary 4 Maarten Luyten Master N-E UGent Master Thesis Academiejaar 2012-2013 Debora Van Durme movement, the Beat Generation gave us a cacophony of fresh, new American voices; the common thread running through the work was this: to say what hadn’t been said in a language as unique as one’s own thumbprint (1999). As this remark implies, their influence appears to encompass all fields of culture and have determined the cultural evolution of the past century. Up to this day, their significance is apparent from film adaptations of Howl (Esptein & Friedman 2010) and On the Road (Salles 2012). Besides an unwavering fascination, we can discern a noteworthy surge in critical investigation. As the traditional understanding of the Beats has been extensively mined, it appears the time has come for revision and reinterpretation. Over the past decade, the Beats have repeatedly been revisited in a large body of studies and literary analyses that ‘complicate our conceptions of the Beat Generation’ (Theado 2004). Examples can be found in Ann Charters’ Beat Down to Your Soul: What Was the Beat Generation? (2001) and Girls Who Wore Black: Women Writing the Beat Generation (Johnson & Grace 2002). Especially Jenni Skerl’s Reconstructing the Beats (2004) and Manuel Luis Martinez’s Countering the Counterculture: Rereading Postwar American Dissent from Jack Kerouac to Tomás Rivera, signpost new assessments and new directions in Beat studies. Both publications share a similar goal, formulated in Skerl’s introduction: to ‘re-historicize, re-contextualize, and reinterpret’ the Beats. Their conclusions, however, ‘differ dramatically’ (Bennett, 2005). In Bennett’s assessment, Skerl’s publication mainly ‘advances a rather traditional sense of the Beats as countercultural rebels’ (2005). Martinez, on the other hand, ‘challenges [the] traditional interpretation of the Beat Generation as an unproblematic counter-hegemonic movement’ (2005). It becomes clear that present academic research is attempting to either refute or reinforce our traditional conception and understanding of the Beat Generation. In other words, we are still attempting to formulate a response to the question prompted in the title of Charters’ publication: what was the Beat Generation? If we aim to scrutinize and reassess the conventional interpretation of the Beats, we must also scrutinize how this traditional image was composed. Irrespective of which viewpoint one advocates, a crucial question in interpreting the Beat Generation and their customary reputation is how that repute was established. 5 Maarten Luyten Master N-E UGent Master Thesis Academiejaar 2012-2013 Debora Van Durme The controversy and sensationalism that the Beat Generation bathed in was undeniably, at least in part, a construction of the media (Watson 1995, Nash 2008). Nevertheless, the Beat Generation was, in the first instance, conceived and shaped in the minds of its authors. In this research I will investigate how the Beats shaped an image of themselves and transferred this to the public. According to Bruce Bawer and Jean Royer, the literary interview plays an essential role in this process, as they always establish a ‘character- portrait’ (Bawer 1988) and give the audience ‘the feeling of truth [and] close personal contact’ (Royer 1986, quoted in Rodden 2001). Hence, I will investigate how the Beat authors actively engaged in self-fashioning in literary interviews. Although their reputation has frequently been analyzed and critically evaluated, no academic research has exclusively and comprehensively investigated the construction of the Beats’ image. Interviews with the Beat authors have regularly served as substantial sources in Beat studies and biographies and have frequently been discussed in the context of the Beats. Nevertheless, to my knowledge these interviews have never been analyzed as instruments for promoting and constructing the image of the Beat Generation. Since this thesis is limited in space, I will only discuss Ginsberg, Burroughs and Kerouac. My preference goes out to these three authors because they are still perceived as the primary authors of the Beat Generation and remain at the center of interest in Beat studies. Additionally, being the most renowned Beat authors, they contributed significantly to fashioning and advertising the Beat Generation. Most of all, I chose these authors because they were undeniable media-presences and frequently appeared in literary interviews. Hence, I believe them to be the most qualified Beat authors for this investigation. However, I must remark that other Beat authors ought to be interesting for this investigation as well. Fashioning the Beat Generation was not solely the merit of these three authors and this process extends vastly beyond actual encounters with journalists and interviewers. Besides in literary interviews, the Beats also shaped their image in 6 Maarten Luyten Master N-E UGent Master Thesis Academiejaar 2012-2013 Debora Van Durme literary essays and even in their literature – as exemplified in Oliver Harris’s ‘”Virus-X”: Kerouac’s Visions of Burroughs’ (2004). In addition, we must not neglect the passive construction of their image. Their portrayal in contemporary journalism and literary reviews – where the stereotypic and often even caricatural image of the Beats was formed – and even their current reception in academic publications and popular culture all contribute to our conception of the Beat Generation. I will begin this dissertation with some introductory notes concerning self-fashioning and marketing, self-fashioning in literary interviews, the Beats in literary interviews and my motivation for the selected interviews.

Shapiro, Chairperson Manfred Henningsen Sankara Krishna Nevzat Soguk Leslie E. Sponsel Acknowledgements When I was in the Burman-Karen war zones, in a gathering of forcibly displaced Karen, one of them asked me what made me decide to pursue this research. I responded to him that it had to do with one story and one incident. The story began with my illiterate mother's life-journey. When she was twelve, she migrated to Thailand with her "owner" boss after being sold to that family three years earlier by her fisher parents living in a seashore village of San Thou, in southeast China. Growing up listening to her stories of suffering, I had invariably felt anguished. But when I started to learn more about the forcibly displaced peoples along the Thai-Burmese border zones, I began to wonder why, as a Thai citizen, I knew almost nothing about them, and also why Thai society had rarely been concerned with the plight of at least one hundred thousand peoples living in a string of "camps" along the border zones and more than one million "illegal" laborers roaming in the country. The more I learnt about the tormenting stories of the forcibly displaced from Burma, the more my mother's stories paled.

  • Kanye West + Vincent Desiderio
    Kanye West + Vincent Desiderio NEW Y ORK ACADEMY OF ART NEW Y ORK Kanye West ACADEMY OF ART + Vincent Desiderio On June 24, 2016, Kanye West premiered the new music video for his song “Famous” off the album The Life of Pablo at a live screening at the Forum in Los Angeles. The video took as its inspiration the painting “Sleep” by New York Academy of Art faculty member Vincent Desiderio. “Sleep” was exhibited in 2004 at Marlborough Gallery, and is currently in a private collection. Desiderio was invited by West to preview the video before its release and was impressed with the result. In West’s vision, the anonymous models of Desiderio’s work are replaced by modern cultural icons of notoriety and fame, including Donald Trump, Anna Wintour, Taylor Swift, Caitlyn Jenner, Bill Cosby, George W. Bush, Kim Kardashian and West himself. Desiderio, who joined the Academy two decades ago, is a figurative painter. Previous to becoming a Senior Critic, he served as a full-time faculty member in painting. His works are included in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington, DC, and the Denver Art Museum. Other Senior Critics at the Academy include other major figurative artists of our era, including Jenny Saville, Kurt Kauper, Eric Fischl, Steven Assael and Will Cotton.

  • Civilian Application of Wartime Military
    SWORDS INTO PLOWSHARES: CIVILIAN APPLICATION OF WARTIME MILITARY TECHNOLOGY IN MODERN JAPAN, 1945-1964 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Takashi Nishiyama, M.A. The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Professor James R. Bartholomew, Adviser Approved by Professor Philip C. Brown _____________________________ Professor John. F. Guilmartin, Jr. Graduate Program in History ABSTRACT This dissertation examines civilian application of military technology in Japan after World War II. As a case study, I focus on the historical metamorphosis of wartime technology ― such as military aircraft deployed for kamikaze suicide missions― into the highly successful Shinkansen high-speed bullet train. In retrospect, the shift in the socio-technological landscape in Japan after 1945 was drastic, spectacular, and unprecedentedly successful. Employing a bottom-up approach, I highlight the decentralized character of Japan’s conversion process from wartime to postwar eras. Specifically, I examine the roles of former military engineers in the public research and development sector at the grass roots-level. The crucial variable in the conversion process, I argue, was the remarkable adaptability and flexibility of these engineers and their knowledge, especially in support of Japan’s technological development. The course of the technological transformation was neither obvious nor preordained. It was largely idiosyncratic and contingent on numerous individual decisions and actions within the engineering community. At least the bullet train and other modern technological artifacts were a product of such ii development; postwar technological artifacts were essentially amalgamations, reproductions, and reconfigurations of pre-1945 technologies with little orchestrated effort from the top.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Stendhal’s Theater of Authenticity: the Performance of le Naturel in the Para-Fictional Works of Marie-Henri Beyle A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in French & Francophone Studies by Hadley Theadora Suter 2015 © Copyright by Hadley Theadora Suter 2015 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Stendhal’s Theater of Authenticity: the Performance of le Naturel in the Para-Fictional Works of Marie-Henri Beyle by Hadley Theadora Suter Doctor of Philosophy in French & Francophone Studies University of California, Los Angeles, 2015 Professor Laure Murat, Chair Stendhal’s conception of le naturel has long been defined in opposition to the theater: for the narrators and the authentic heroes and heroines of his fiction, there is nothing so vile as the histrionic personality who does not live life so much as perform it. But while most critics have interpreted the theatricality of Stendhal’s fictional characters and that of his own authorial performance as an accidental lapse into the sort of hypocrisy he spends his œuvre simultaneously denouncing, this dissertation argues that his naturalism was not an inadvertent “comédie de sincérité,” as Valéry suggested, but rather a carefully constructed “Theater of Authenticity.” This theater comprises three performances of authenticity: the social, the private, and the written. To each performance corresponds one part of the Stendhalian self, which simultaneously inhabits three roles: actor, spectator, and narrator. Before these performances were staged in his novels and short stories, they were both ii rehearsed and intellectually scrutinized in Stendhal’s para-fictional writings—his “nonfiction,” autobiographies, and private journals.
