POST-SOUL SPECULATION: AN EXPLORATION OF AFRO-SOUTHERN SPECULATIVE FICTION A Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Southern Studies The University of Mississippi by HILARY M. WORD May 2020 Copyright © Hilary M. Word 2020 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. ABSTRACT This thesis is an examination of female authored, post-soul, Afro-Southern speculative fiction. The specific texts being examined are My Soul to Keep by Tananarive Due, Stigmata by Phyllis Alesia Perry, and Sing, Unburied, Sing by Jesmyn Ward. Through exploration of these texts, I posit two large arguments. First, I posit that this thesis as a collective work illustrates how women-authored Afro-Southern speculative fiction based in the post-soul era embodies and champions womanist politics and praxis critical for liberation through speculative elements. Second, I assert that this thesis is demonstrative of how this particular type of fiction showcases the importance of specificity of setting and reflects other, often erased facets of African American identity and realities by centering the experiences of contemporary Black Southerners.

  • Adam Floridia, Middlesex Community College
    Teaching American Literature: A Journal of Theory and Practice Spring/Summer 2010 (3:3/4) Unconsciously Completing the Canon: An Argument for The Original of Laura Adam Floridia, Middlesex Community College Perhaps the most impressive aspect of Nabokov’s prolific career— spanning six decades and numerous languages—is the fact that there is surprisingly remarkable consistency to his canon. The casual Nabokov reader will certainly notice the leitmotifs of chess, light and color, lepidoptery and various word games; the more acute Nabokov scholar, however, will note a theme, at times obvious, at times latent, always pulsing beneath the surface of his stories. Operating as the life force of his literature, sometimes this particular theme becomes obvious to both readers and characters alike, for example when all of Krug’s emotional anguish is lifted at the end of Bend Sinister thanks to the epiphany that he is merely a character. Krug’s epiphany, the overriding concern of all of Nabokov’s work, is the concept of consciousness. In Speak, Memory Nabokov begins, “The cradle rocks above an abyss, and common sense tells us that our existence is but a brief crack of light between two eternities of darkness.”1 It is this mystery of the relatively brief moment of consciousness that is one’s life that so harasses and fascinates the author and so informs his writing. He continues, “Over and over again my mind has made colossal efforts to distinguish the faintest of 1 Teaching American Literature: A Journal of Theory and Practice Spring/Summer 2010 (3:3/4) personal glimmers in the impersonal darkness on both sides of my life”1 and concedes, “Initially, I was unaware that time, so boundless at first blush, was a prison.”2 It was early in his own life that Nabokov came to this realization that life is a mere flickering of consciousness between the vast, dark voids at both ends of a human’s time on earth.

For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] Moving Beyond the Law of The Fathers Toni Morrison's Paradise Abstract You don't have to know the work of the legal theorist, Pierre Legendre, to read Toni Morrison's new novel, Paradise (Morrison 1997) but it doesn't hurt. The novel is not ostensibly about law (as one might expect, in Paradise there is no crime). Nevertheless, law is central to the novel. It is what the paradisal community rests on, the foundation of the symbolic order. It lays down what would be taken to be the inalterable places of this society and culture. Law is constitutive, what constitutes, constitutional; which as we shall see is no fortuitous analogy. Paradise is a story of foundations, or foundational myths, at the center of which is law. With unusual uncanniness, these not-so-buried themes in Morrison's work overlap with Legendre's psychoanalytically based legal theories. If his work is an explication and explanation of the symbolic function of law -- what rests in society's legal unconscious -- Morrison's novel is an illustration of it.

  • The Poor Law of Lunacy
    The Poor Law of Lunacy: The Administration of Pauper Lunatics in Mid-Nineteenth Century England with special Emphasis on Leicestershire and Rutland Peter Bartlett Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, University College London. University of London 1993 Abstract Previous historical studies of the care of the insane in nineteenth century England have been based in the history of medicine. In this thesis, such care is placed in the context of the English poor law. The theory of the 1834 poor law was essentially silent on the treatment of the insane. That did not mean that developments in poor law had no effect only that the effects must be established by examination of administrative practices. To that end, this thesis focuses on the networks of administration of the poor law of lunacy, from 1834 to 1870. County asylums, a creation of the old (pre-1834) poor law, grew in numbers and scale only under the new poor law. While remaining under the authority of local Justices of the Peace, mid-century legislation provided an increasing role for local poor law staff in the admissions process. At the same time, workhouse care of the insane increased. Medical specialists in lunacy were generally excluded from local admissions decisions. The role of central commissioners was limited to inspecting and reporting; actual decision-making remained at the local level. The webs of influence between these administrators are traced, and the criteria they used to make decisions identified. The Leicestershire and Rutland Lunatic asylum provides a local study of these relations. Particular attention is given to admission documents and casebooks for those admitted to the asylum between 1861 and 1865.

  • Teaching Notes Mortal Fire by Elizabeth Knox Synopsis Sixteen-Year-Old Canny Mochrie Has Always Been a Little Different. She
    Teaching Notes Mortal Fire by Elizabeth Knox Synopsis Sixteen-year-old Canny Mochrie has always been a little different. She has never known her father, she has always had a calculating, mathematical mind, and she has always been able to see something ‘Extra’. When she grudgingly joins her older stepbrother on a trip to research a strange coal mine disaster that happened thirty years earlier, she wanders into a nearby enchanted valley, occupied almost entirely by children all with the same surname and who can perform a type of magic that makes things stronger and better than they already are. With the help of the alluring and somewhat threatening Ghislain Zarene, who is held hostage by a powerful, out-of-control spell for his part in that mine accident long ago, Canny starts to untangle the mysteries of the valley, only to find that its secrets are also her own. 1 The Author Elizabeth Knox has published several novels for adults and children, as well as autobiographical novellas. Her acclaimed adult novel The Vintner’s Luck (1998) was shortlisted for the Orange Prize in 1999, and was made into a feature film in 2009. In 2008, her young adult novel Dreamquake won an American Library Association’s Michael L Printz Award for excellence in young adult literature. Elizabeth lives in Wellington, New Zealand. Her website and blog can be found at www.elizabethknox.com. Themes This mysterious and compelling coming-of-age novel has several themes, including the importance of history, the search for identity, otherness, secrets and memories, loyalty and love.

  • Graveyard of Bitter Oranges / Josef Winkler; Translated from First Contra Mundum Press the Original German by Adrian Edition 2015
    “Graveyard of Bitter Oranges is a monstrous book, written with unequalled intensity.” Josef Winkler Josef .—Marcel Reich-Ranicki “Reading Winkler is like peering harder and harder into one of those painted Flemish hells that seethe with horribly inventive details of sin & retribution.” .—Alberto Manguel In 1979, Josef Winkler appeared on the literary horizon as if from nowhere, collecting numerous honors& the praise of the most promi- nent critical voices in Germany and Austria. Throughout the 1980s, he chronicled the malevolence, dissipation, and unregenerate Nazism en- Graveyard of Oranges Bitter demic to Austrian village life in an increasingly trenchant& hallucina- tory series of novels. At the decade’s end, fearing the silence that always lurks over the writer’s shoulder, he abandoned the Hell of Austria for Rome: not to flee, but to come closer to the darkness. There, he passes his days & nights among the junkies, rent boys, gypsies, & transsexuals who congregate around Stazione Termini and Piazza dei Cinquecento, as well as in the graveyards & churches, where his blasphemous reveries render the most hallowed rituals obscene. Traveling south to Naples& Palermo, he writes down his nightmares & recollections and all that he sees and reads, engaged, like Rimbaud, in a rational derangement of the senses, but one whose aim is a ruthless condemnation of church & state and the misery they sow in the lives of the downtrodden. Equal parts memoir, dream journal, and scandal sheet, the novel is, in the author’s words, a cage drawn around the horror. Writing here is an act of com- Josef Winkler memoration and redemption, a gathering of the bones of the forgotten dead and those outcast and spit on by society, their consecration in art, their final repatriation to the book’s titular graveyard.

  • Adam Bede by George Eliot Book One Chapter I the Workshop with a Single Drop of Ink for a Mirror, the Egyptian Sorcerer Undertak
    Adam Bede by George Eliot Book One Chapter I The Workshop With a single drop of ink for a mirror, the Egyptian sorcerer undertakes to reveal to any chance comer far-reaching visions of the past. This is what I undertake to do for you, reader. With this drop of ink at the end of my pen, I will show you the roomy workshop of Mr. Jonathan Burge, carpenter and builder, in the village of Hayslope, as it appeared on the eighteenth of June, in the year of our Lord 1799. The afternoon sun was warm on the five workmen there, busy upon doors and window-frames and wainscoting. A scent of pine-wood from a tentlike pile of planks outside the open door mingled itself with the scent of the elder-bushes which were spreading their summer snow close to the open window opposite; the slanting sunbeams shone through the transparent shavings that flew before the steady plane, and lit up the fine grain of the oak panelling which stood propped against the wall. On a heap of those soft shavings a rough, grey shepherd dog had made himself a pleasant bed, and was lying with his nose between his fore-paws, occasionally wrinkling his brows to cast a glance at the tallest of the five workmen, who was carving a shield in the centre of a wooden mantelpiece. It was to this workman that the strong barytone belonged which was heard above the sound of plane and hammer singing-- Awake, my soul, and with the sun Thy daily stage of duty run; Shake off dull sloth..

It is so different, in fact, that it is irrelevant for Nellie, whose disillusionment leaves her hopeless. Is Nellie's hopeless conclusion also Miss Cather's? The novel offers no grounds for thinking otherwise. The compactness and starkness of My Mortal Enemy suggest that Miss Cather had full confidence in the accuracy of this conclusion and in her talents as a writer. Some may find it ironic that the book in which she gained the surest control of her art expresses her most despairing vision of life, but is it really? She was soon to make a journey to New Mexico and to discoveries that would brighten her spirits and give a new serenity to her later novels. Is it not, rather, entirely consistent with her devotion to her art that, when life seemed to fail her, her art saved her?

    The Forgotten Books Of Eden edited by Rutherford H. Platt, Jr. New York, N.Y.; Alpha House [1926] Scanned, proofed and formatted at sacred-texts.com, April 2004, by John Bruno Hare. This text is in the public domain in the US because its copyright was not renewed in a timely fashion. THE ORDER OF ALL THE BOOKS OF THE FORGOTTEN BOOKS OF EDEN The First Book of Adam and Eve The Second Book of Adam and Eve The Secrets of Enoch The Psalms of Solomon The Odes of Solomon The Letter of Aristeas The Fourth Book of Maccabees The Story of Ahikar The Testament of Reuben Simeon Levi Judah Issachar Zebulun Dan Naphtali Gad Asher Joseph Benjamin PREFACE TODAY the medley of outward life has made a perplexity of inward life. We moderns have ruffled our old incertitudes to an absurd point--incertitudes that are older than theology. Not without justification have priests mounted altars for generations and cried, "Oh my soul, why dost thou trouble me?" We are active, restless both in body and mind. Curiosity has replaced blind faith. We go groping, peering, searching, scornful of dogmas, back, further back to sources. And just as the physicist thrills at the universes he discovers as he works inward in the quest of his electrons, so the average man exults in his apprehension of fundamentals of psychology. New cults spring up, attesting to the Truth--as they see it--countless fleets of Theism, Buchmanism, Theosophy, Bahai'ism, etc., sail under brightly colored flags; and Atheism is flaunting itself on the horizon.
