University Luke Watson MA Dissertation 2019 Abstract This dissertation attempts to read Nigerian-American writer Teju Cole’s fiction and essays as sustained demonstrations of precarity, as theorised by Judith Butler in Precarious Life (2004). Though never directly cited by Cole, Butler’s articulation of a shared condition of bodily vulnerability and interdependency offers a generative critical framework through which to read Cole’s representations of black bodies as they move across space. By presenting the ‘black body’, rather than ‘black man’, as the preferred metonym for black people, Cole’s work, which I argue can be read as peculiar travel narratives, foregrounds the bodily dimension of black life, and develops an ambivalent storytelling mode to narrate the experiences of characters who encompass multiple spatialities and subjectivities.

  • 1. the Regulation of Social Media Influencers: an Introduction Catalina Goanta and Sofia Ranchordás
    1. The regulation of social media influencers: an introduction Catalina Goanta and Sofia Ranchordás 1. SETTING THE SCENE Nikkie de Jager was an unknown teenager from the small Dutch town of Uden until one of her videos (‘The Power of Make-Up’) went ‘viral’, amassing in a short period of time nearly 40 million views.1 Her ‘NikkieTutorials’ make-up channel on YouTube soon became an online sensation with millions of views from different countries, helping her build an international reputation as a ‘YouTuber’ and make-up artist. Without prior training in communication, advertising, or even the beauty sector, de Jager’s is a good example of an emerging ‘profession’: ‘social media influencer’. A growing number of indi- viduals, often without any traditional professional certification, have a job which consists in sharing moments of their daily lives, offering advice in different areas (e.g., fitness, beauty, food), and while doing so, endorsing con- sumer goods and services. In many cases, these social media influencers fail to properly disclose the commercial nature of their relationship with the compa- nies behind these advertisements. Moreover, these channels are not limited to lifestyle advice and can have broader societal consequences, for example, on election results. The comedy and commentary channel of German YouTuber Rezo is a good example of how social media influencers are also having an impact in politics. On 18 May 2019, Rezo published a video criticizing the German Christian Democratic Union party (CDU), which gained well over 15 million views in three months,2 and was subsequently endorsed by at least 90 other YouTubers, in an attempt to hold German politicians responsible, especially for their perceived lack of commitment to the fight against global 1 NikkieTutorials, YouTube channel (YouTube, 2015) https://www .youtube .com/ watch ?v = a4Ov8qvZ2 _w & t = 266s.

  • The Rise of Twitter Fiction…………………………………………………………1
    Twitter Fiction: A Shift in Author Function Hilary Hyman Twitter fiction, an example of twenty-first century digital narrative, allows authors to experiment with literary form, production, and dissemination as they engage readers through a communal network. Twitter offers creative space for both professionals and amateurs to publish fiction digitally, enabling greater collaboration among authors and readers. Examining Jennifer Egan’s “Black Box” and selected Twitter stories from Junot Diaz, Teju Cole, and Elliott Holt, this thesis establishes two distinct types of Twitter fiction—one produced for the medium and one produced through it—to consider how Twitter’s present feed and character limit fosters a uniquely interactive reading experience. As the conversational medium calls for present engagement with the text and with the author, Twitter promotes newly elastic relationships between author and reader that renegotiate the former boundaries between professionals and amateurs. This thesis thus considers how works of Twitter fiction transform the traditional author function and pose new questions regarding digital narrative’s modes of existence, circulation, and appropriation. As digital narrative makes its way onto democratic forums, a shifted author function leaves us wondering what it means to be an author in the digital age.

Jones, Chair This dissertation proposes a new analytical category for thinking about a subset of post-9/11 Anglophone novels that are engaged with the political aftermath of 9/11. I designate this category the post-American novel, distinguishing it from the category of 9/11 fiction. While the 9/11 novel is a sub-genre of national literature, focusing on the terrorist attacks as a national trauma, the post-American novel is a transnational literary form that decenters 9/11, either by contextualizing the terrorist attacks in relation to other historical traumas or by shifting focus to the “War on Terror.” I theorize the post-American novel as the literary expression of international opposition to the 2003 U.S.

  • The Language Spoken by All
    Discussing Teju Cole’s essays on photography, Lu asks: How should we approach a medium that readily lends itself to distortion? In response, she develops an argument that urges us to reassess our identities in light of the global community with which photography can bring us into contact. (Instructor: Christina van Houten) THE LANGUAGE SPOKEN BY ALL Alice Lu he camera is—and always will be—a tool, an instrument, a weapon. Whether it has a detrimental or beneficial impact is the decision the photographer must make. However, whether we let a photograph’s message influence us or not Tis the decision we, the audience, must make. Teju Cole, a renowned writer and photographer, reckons with the positive and negative impacts of photography by relating the intricacies of the camera, the photographers, and the photographs themselves in a comprehensive ethical conversation. Cole takes his readers on a captivating journey through his collection of photo journals, using the camera as a lens to tackle cultural, technological, international, and personal issues. In doing so, he helps us rid ourselves of innocence and naivety and devel - op our own global perspectives. In such a diverse world, we need peo - ple with global perspectives, like Cole, to show us what we are doing wrong as brothers and sisters, as friends and strangers, and as human beings. In his essay “Against Neutrality,” Cole observes that in the eyes of many people, images “are often presumed to be unbiased.” They are snapshots of the real world, but we cannot assume that they are nec - essarily true.

  • Criminal Defamation: Still “An Instrument of Destruction” in the Age of Fake News
    CRIMINAL DEFAMATION: STILL “AN INSTRUMENT OF DESTRUCTION” IN THE AGE OF FAKE NEWS Jane E. Kirtley* & Casey Carmody** I. INTRODUCTION When Bangladeshi journalist Abdul Latif Morol, a correspondent for the Daily Probaha, used Facebook on August 1, 2017 to relay reports about the death of a goat, he was not expecting to be the target of a criminal defamation prosecution.1 The previous day, Bangladesh’s Minister of State for Fisheries and Livestock Narayan Chandra Chanda donated the goat to a poor farmer in Dumuria during an event sponsored by the government’s local livestock department.2 Following the event, news organizations published stories noting that the goat had died overnight. Morol took to Facebook to report the information, writing, “Goat given by state minister in the morning dies in the evening.”3 Soon after the post was published, fellow journalist Subrata Faujdar, a correspondent for the Daily Spandan, filed a criminal defamation complaint against Morol.4 Faujdar claimed that Morol’s post, which also contained a photo of the minister, was intended to demean the official.5 Faujdar was a supporter of the ruling party in Bangladesh and filed the complaint because * Silha Professor of Media Ethics and Law, and Director, Silha Center for the Study of Media Ethics and Law, Hubbard School of Journalism and Mass Communication, University of Minnesota; Affiliated Faculty Member, University of Minnesota Law School. ** PhD Candidate, Hubbard School of Journalism and Mass Communication, University of Minnesota.
