Ouse conhecer! Esse é o grande compromisso que o Jornal 51 do Centro Acadêmico Rosalind Franklin (CARF), uma iniciativa empreendida pela chapa PCR, terá com você daqui para frente. O no- me do jornal faz referência à Fotografia 51 registrada por Rosalind Franklin (pesquisadora homenageada no nome do nosso Centro Acadêmico), que foi o pontapé para se entender a estrutura do DNA e possibilitar o desenvolvimento do conhecimento sobre essa molécula. Também é uma estratégia para conseguir patrocínio da empresa de cachaça. Quem sabe? Mas isso é um serviço para a 51º edição e um plano de marketing muito perspicaz. Seja qual for o sentido que você preferir, os valores do Jornal 51 vêm de encontro com as li- SAPERE AUDE ções da Fotografia 51. Queremos criar um espaço mais democrático em nosso campo, valori- zando e dando mérito à voz de todos. Estaremos atentos à injustiça e à inverdade e iremos denunciá-la. Mais do que isso, as páginas deste jornal serão as ferramentas para a expressão dos nossos pensamentos, livres e múltiplos, num esforço de representar a coletividade dos alunos do ICB. Sobretudo, acreditamos que assim como o DNA, as palavras possuem o segre- do da vida. Dentre tantas motivações para a criação desta plataforma, destacamos, ainda, especialmente a necessidade de ampliar nossa comunicação e também a de incentivar expressões artísticas dos alunos do nosso instituto. Na correria do dia a dia, em meio a aulas, laboratório, ativida- des extracurriculares e, agora, uma pandemia, acreditamos que os alunos do ICB acabam não conhecendo uns aos outros tão bem como poderiam. Com isso em mente, o jornal surgiu com a proposta de ampliar a comunicação entre os alunos e docentes do Instituto de Ciências Bio- médicas, tanto de graduação como de pós-graduação, assim como dar visibilidade aos talen- tos artísticos e demais habilidades da nossa comunidade. Os textos e ilustrações aqui divulga- SAPERE AUDE dos serão sempre feitos por alunos do ICB, a fim de consolidar nossa integração.

Carta aos Calouros Uma mensagem de boas-vindas ao nosso curso Caros bixes, Primeiramente, parabéns pela aprovação em um dos cursos mais concorridos da Universidade de São Paulo! Vamos respirar bem fundo e soltar no ar qualquer peso que estava te afligindo. Alguns diriam que o pior já passou, en- quanto outros dizem que ele está para começar. Quem tem razão? Isso é você que vai nos dizer daqui a 4, 5 ou 6 anos. Você faz a experiência da vida - e da faculdade! Por isso, tenha sempre em mente a importância de aproveitar cada segun- do aqui. Não se limite ao espaço das salas, explore cada centímetro do campus, conheça mais você mesmo. A gente sabe que isso é bem brega, mas você é um grande aliado de si nessa jornada. No mais, é importante te lembrar de aprender seus limites, assim como seus pontos fortes e fracos e, principalmente, de ser humano. Acredite, é fácil demais esquecer disso. Não sabemos como foi sua jornada até a aprovação no vestibular, mas veio de muito esforço. Por isso, nunca se esqueça de todas as vitórias já alcançadas, até daquelas que você considera pequenas. Um conselho: durante a universi- dade você precisa comemorar todo seu desenvolvimento. Às vezes a conquista é perder aquela vergonha de apresentar um seminário, às vezes é o prazer de conseguir explicar algum tópico para seus pais, ou vai ver é aquela gratidão no final do dia de “está tudo bem”. Mesmo assim, precisamos te falar que a rotina pode tornar sua vida monótona, por conta disso quebre ela quantas vezes for saudável para você. Isso pode soar estranho, mas dar o louco às vezes faz muito bem. Você vai criar memórias! Tendo dito isso, sempre que quiser sair do modo automático pode chamar a gente para jogar aquela partida de LoL, de Gartic ou ver um filminho (Alô CineCARF!). Quando tudo estiver bem, vamos sair para jogar aquela conversa fora que alivia as tensões da semana e, finalmente, dar aquele famigerado abraço apertado. Falando sobre o novo lado da sua vida, a biomedicina, a cada dia que passa podemos ter uma ideia melhor do quão desastroso seria um mundo sem ela. Só não vimos o desastre ainda porque a ciência resiste. Dito isso, a partir de agora você tem como papel espalhar a importância de todas as ciências para a história da humanidade e esclarecer as in- verdades das pseudociências. Puxando para o nosso lado, é importante reiterar a pesquisa como a base de tudo relaciona- do à saúde. Pense naquele exame de sangue, o teste de COVID-19, as vacinas, os aparelhos de respiração e muitas outras coisas do cotidiano: todos esses, em algum momento, foram hipóteses que passaram pelos parâmetros científicos. Lutar para que essa ideia seja reconhecida não é uma tarefa fácil. Caso você não consiga iluminar as pessoas no seu dever, não se aborreça! Carl Sagan no seu livro de ficção científica“ Contato”, de 1985, resume bem um imperativo em que podemos nos encontrar em algum momento: “não é possível convencer um crente de coisa alguma, pois suas crenças não se baseiam em evidências; baseiam-se numa profunda necessidade de acreditar”. Mesmo assim, garantimos muitos prazeres também, todos encontrados no amor de praticar ciência no seu cotidiano. Finalmente, por meio desta carta, desejamos que você tenha uma experiência completa, a ser levada para o resto da vida. Oferecemos nosso apoio nas eventualidades do seu caminho e ressaltamos: procure-nos quando sentir dúvidas sobre a grade, alguma matéria, o curso ou qualquer outra.

TIPPING THE VELVET: SPECULARISED SEXUALITIES IN THE VICTORIAN ERA* Ela İpek GÜNDÜZ** Abstract Sarah Waters’s first novelTipping the Velvet (1998) is a neo-Victorian novel that adopts aspects of the Victorian English reality to depict the marginalised existence of lesbian lovers. In Waters’s novel, in which historical facts and imaginary notions are blurred, the homosexual female characters try to become visible and to offer an alternative lesbian history/lesbian counter- discourse to patriarchal discourse on sexuality and desire. In this article, Tipping the Velvet’s presentation of the alternative lesbian history/counter-discourse will be evaluated through the discussion of the way Waters portrays the constructions of femininity and sexual interactions of lesbian lovers in England during the Victorian period. Particularly, creating different social circles and classes among queer people in Victorian times, Waters succeeds in avoiding the stereotyping of lesbians and adds credibility to their existence. Key words: Sarah Waters, Queer, Neo-Victorian, Lesbian. TIPPING THE VELVET: VİKTORYEN DÖNEMDEKİ GÖZLEMLENMİŞ İLİŞKİLER Özet Sarah Waters’ın ilk romanı Tipping the Velvet (1998), Viktorya dönemindeki kadın hemcinslerin birbirlerine olan aşkının dışlanmış varlığını betimleyerek yeniden sunan neo-Viktoryen bir romandır.

  • Kit Stallmann –
    Kit Stallmann English 495 Dr. Leslie Werden December 6, 2019 Straight-Jackets: Gay Characters and Mental Asylums Across Times and Cultures, as Portrayed in Film and Literature A historical crime novel written in 2002, an erotic Korean phycological thriller film, and a classic of American literature written by Ken Kesey feature some fascinating shared elements, despite the differences in medium and genre between the three. All take place, in part or whole, inside a mental institute, with characters committed to the institute who are homosexual. Scattered as they are between genres, time periods, context, and settings, they share several obvious connections, namely secrets and deception, unreliable narration, and most, notably, gay characters committed to mental institutions. Although these stories are spread out across times and cultures, each share commonalities of physical and occasionally sexual abuse at the hands of heterosexual medical professionals, and also prominently feature escapes from abusive situations in ways that return the dignity that was taken from each character during their imprisonment. This exchange of abuse for freedom with each character’s sexuality intact shows that authors across cultures understand the vulnerability of homosexual people under the oppressive care of heterosexual medical professionals. Furthermore, the authors, two of whom are straight men and one of whom is a lesbian woman, sympathize with their gay characters and, while allowing them to suffer, also give them an escape that restores their dignity and offers them a happy ending. Fingersmith, a Victorian crime novel written by Sarah Waters in 2002, follows two young women with their own strains of madness.

  • The Paying Guests by Sarah Waters ______

Winner of many literary awards, she has been shortlisted for both the Man Booker and Orange Prizes. She lives in London. Source: Publisher’s website (http://penguinrandomhouse.ca/) About this book: The year is 1922, and London is tense.

With the arrival of Lilian and Leonard Barber, the routines of the house and the lives of its inhabitants will be shaken up in unexpected ways. And as passions mount and frustration gathers, no one can foresee just how far, and how devastatingly, the disturbances will reach. In this psychological and dramatic tour-de-force, beloved international bestseller Sarah Waters proves once again that her eye for the telling details of class and character that draw people together as well as tear them apart is second to none.

    Tipping the Velvet Based on the book by Sarah Waters A new adaption by Laura Wade Directed by Lyndsey Turner A Lyric Hammersmith & Royal Lyceum Theatre Edinburgh production Royal Lyceum Theatre, Edinburgh Wednesday 28 October – Saturday 14 November 2015 Press Night Thursday 29th October at 7.30pm It’s 1887 and Nancy Astley (Sally Messham) sits in the audience at her local music hall: she doesn’t know it yet, but the next act on the bill will change her life. Tonight is the night she’ll fall in love… with the thrill of the stage and with Kitty Butler (Laura Rogers), a girl who wears trousers. Giddy with desire and hungry for experience, Nancy follows Kitty to London where unimaginable adventures await. Author Sarah Waters says: “I am absolutely thrilled that ‘Tipping the Velvet’ is to be brought to life on the stage of The Lyric, Hammersmith. I can think of no better setting for the play than the lush Lyric interior or the beautiful Lyceum in Edinburgh, and no more exciting creative talents than those of writer Laura Wade and director Lyndsey Turner. The production promises to be full of energy, fun and music-hall sparkle - in other words, everything I could wish for. I am simply delighted." Sally Messham who plays Nancy recently graduated from RADA and Tipping the Velvet is her first professional lead role on stage. Full company includes Jared Ashe (Walter), Kirsty Besterman (Diana), Tamara Camacho (Young Ensemble), David Cardy (Chairman), Grace Frogley (Young Ensemble), Amanda Hadingue (General Woman), Ru Hamilton (Sweet Alice), Adelle Leonce (Florence), Georgie Lord (Young Ensemble), Sally Messham (Nancy), Andy Rush (Ralph), Laura Rogers (Kitty), Aasiyah Shah (Young Ensemble), Sarah Vezmar (Blake).

  • Exorcising the Past: History, Hauntings and Evil in Neo-Gothic Fiction
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by South East Academic Libraries System (SEALS) Exorcising the Past: History, Hauntings and Evil in Neo-Gothic Fiction A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Arts at Rhodes University by Karlien van der Wielen January 2016 Supervisor: Professor Samantha Naidu Abstract This thesis explores the conventions of both historical and Gothic fiction in order to investigate what seems to be a recurrent impulse to exorcise the past in what I define as contemporary Neo-Gothic fiction. It therefore attempts to establish a distinction between Neo-Gothic fiction and other forms of contemporary Gothic fiction by focusing on the treatment of history, the supernatural and the grand narrative of progress in three contemporary Gothic novels: The Little Stranger by Sarah Waters, The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova and The Accursed by Joyce Carol Oates. This thesis argues that the most potent manifestation of history can be found in the representation of the revenant in Neo- Gothic fiction, which exhibits a disruptive and evil ontology that problematises the exorcism of the past. Furthermore, the reactions of ‘modern’ characters to these revenants illustrate the imperative to exorcise the past, and therefore the treatment of history and the past is reflected in the interaction between the ‘modern’ characters and the Gothic revenants. Through this interaction as well as the parody of traditional Gothic and historical fiction conventions, Neo- Gothic fiction constructs a critique of the Enlightenment’s grand narrative of progress. Paradoxically, this constitutes Neo-Gothic fiction’s own attempt to exorcise the past, which it recognises in a simplified and reductive narrative of history propounded through the grand narrative of progress.

  • Queer Phenomenology and Tactility in Sarah Waters's Neo-Victorian Fiction
    QUEER PHENOMENOLOGY AND TACTILITY IN SARAH WATERS’S NEO-VICTORIAN FICTION* Rosario Arias Universidad de Málaga Abstract Sarah Waters’s neo-Victorian trilogy, Tipping the Velvet (1998), Affinity (1999), and Finger- smith (2002), have been largely discussed from many perspectives. Queer approaches have been utilised in the analysis of these three novels, bearing in mind that Waters has made clear her lesbian agenda. This article will consider Waters’s neo-Victorian trilogy from an altogether new perspective: Sara Ahmed’s notions of orientation and queer touch, which she draws from Maurice Merleau-Ponty and other phenomenologists. In addition, this article will analyse the relevance of the Victorian past through affective materiality and corporeal hermeneutics, in particular the sense of touch with a special emphasis on the hand and the skin. Lastly, Sarah Waters’s neo-Victorian fiction illustrates the sensuous interplay between the Victorian past and today’s culture by employing critical approaches such as phenomenology and sensory studies. Keywords: Sarah Waters, neo-victorian fiction, phenomenology, tactility. Resumen La crítica especializada ha analizado la trilogía neo-victoriana de Sarah Waters, Tipping 41 the Velvet (1998), Affinity (1999) y Fingersmith (2002), desde perspectivas diversas. Se han empleado los estudios queer para el análisis de estas novelas ya que la autora ha puesto en evidencia su punto de vista y orientación lésbicas. Este artículo examina la trilogía de Sarah Waters desde una perspectiva innovadora: las nociones de orientación y contacto queer de Sara Ahmed, quien parte de los presupuestos de Maurice Merleau-Ponty y otros fenome- nólogos. Además, este artículo versa sobre la relevancia del pasado victoriano a través de la materialidad afectiva y la hermenéutica corporal, y sobre la importancia del sentido del tacto, en especial la mano y la piel.

  • Fingersmith by Sarah Waters
    Fingersmith by Sarah Waters Growing up as a foster child among a family of thieves, orphan Sue Trinder hopes to pay back that kindness by playing a key role in a swindle scheme devised by their leader, Gentleman, who is planning to con a fortune out of the naive Maud Lily, but Sue's growing pity for their helpless victim could destroy the plot. Why you'll like it: Suspenseful. Intricately-plotted. Atmospheric. About the Author: Sarah Waters was born in Wales in 1966. She has a Ph.D. in English. She is the author of several books including Tipping the Velvet, Affinity, The Night Watch, and The Paying Guests. Fingersmith won the CWA Ellis Peters Dagger Award for Historical Crime Fiction and the South Bank Show Award for Literature. She has won a Betty Trask Award and the Somerset Maugham Award. In 2003, she was chosen as one of Granta's Best of Young British Novelists and was named Author of the Year by the British Book Awards, The Booksellers' Association and Waterstone's Booksellers. Several of her novels have been adapted for television. (Bowker Author Biography) Questions for Discussion 1. At the start of her story, Sue Trinder claims: “I was Mrs. Sucksby’s child, if I was anyone’s.” Is this true/ Why or why not? Might she still make the same claim by the end of her saga? 2. “Everything that came into our kitchen looking like one sort of thing, was made to leave it again looking quite another,” Sue says of Mrs. Sucksby’s kitchen (p.

  • NVS 11-2-7 P-Heebon J-Sanders C-Moonyoung
    Secondary Pleasures, Spatial Occupations and Postcolonial Departures: Park Chan-wook’s Agassi/The Handmaiden and Sarah Waters’s Fingersmith Park Heebon, Julie Sanders, and Chung Moonyoung (Chungbuk National University, South Korea; Newcastle University, England, UK; and Keimyung University, South Korea) Abstract: This essay explores neo-Victorian fiction in an Asian context via the case-study example of Park Chan-wook’s 2016 South Korean film Agassi/The Handmaiden. An ostensible adaptation of British author Sarah Waters’s novel Fingersmith (2002), Agassi/The Handmaiden is a complex multi-lingual engagement with cultural, political, and sexual histories that are entirely Asian in provenance and that in turn require new attention be paid to the narrative and generic repertoires deployed by Waters’s novel. The article asks how the impact occasioned by adaptational tactics such as neo-Victorianism deepens when the shift is not only one of medium (novel to film) but a recalibration of perspective away from the Anglophone. Park Chan-wook’s film repurposes a British neo-Victorian novel into an early twentieth-century Japanese occupational context and makes new Korean meanings that actively decentre Western concerns. Keywords: adaptation, Wilkie Collins, Japanese imperialism, Korean film, lesbian identities, postcolonial neo-Victorianism, Park Chan-wook, space, Sarah Waters. ***** Discussions of the literariness of literature, the “singularity” of the form as Derek Attridge has compellingly articulated it (Attridge 2010: 1-5), are frequently about the second time around: the long recognised secondary pleasures of re-reading a novel or re-watching a film and seeing the things you did not notice at first. In the self-aware, knowing response of reader or spectator to adaptations of those same literary texts, these experiences are further enhanced by the pleasures of recognising what has or has not been adapted and the particular and localised meanings this produces.1 For neo- Victorian studies, the principle of familiarity operates in a slightly different vein.

  • The Handmaiden
    Presents THE HANDMAIDEN A film by Park Chan-wook (144 min, 2016) Language: Korean, Japanese Distribution Publicity Bonne Smith Star PR 1352 Dundas St. West Tel: 416-488-4436 Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M6J 1Y2 Fax: 416-488-8438 Tel: 416-516-9775 Fax: 416-516-0651 E-mail: [email protected] E-mail: [email protected] www.mongrelmedia.com @MongrelMedia MongrelMedia SYNOPSIS From Park Chan-wook, the celebrated director of OLDBOY, LADY VENGEANCE and STOKER, comes a ravishing new crime drama. Park presents a gripping and sensual tale of two women - a young Japanese Lady living on a secluded estate, and a Korean woman who is hired to serve as her new handmaiden, but is secretly plotting with a conman to defraud her of a large inheritance. Inspired by the novel Fingersmith by British author Sarah Waters, THE HANDMAIDEN borrows the most dynamic elements of its source material and combines it with Park Chan-wook’s singular vision to create an unforgettable viewing experience. ABOUT THE FILMMAKER Director | Park Chan-wook Born in Seoul, Korea, Aug. 23, 1963 Winner of the Cannes’ Grand Prix for OLDBOY and the Jury Prize for THIRST, Park Chan-wook stands at the forefront of Korean cinema’s modern-day renaissance. Renowned for his explosive visuals and dynamic storytelling, he is a director who continually challenges and defies expectations. An ardent cinephile, Park juggled film directing and criticism in the 1990s before his commercial breakthrough JOINT SECURITY AREA (JSA) in 2000, which broke local box office records and screened in competition at Berlin. However it was with his critically acclaimed follow-up SYMPATHY FOR MR.

  • (Title of the Thesis)*
    DOMESTICATIONS AND DISRUPTIONS: LESBIAN IDENTITIES IN TELEVISION ADAPTATIONS OF CONTEMPORARY BRITISH NOVELS by Heather Erin Emmens A thesis submitted to the Department of English In conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada (May, 2009) Copyright © Heather Erin Emmens, 2009 Abstract The first decade of this century marked a moment of hypervisibility for lesbians and bisexual women on British television. During this time, however, lesbian hypervisibility was coded repeatedly as hyperfemininity. When the BBC and ITV adapted Sarah Waters’s novels for television, how, I ask, did the screen versions balance the demands of pop visual culture with the novels’ complex, unconventional – and in some cases subversive – representations of lesbianism? I pursue this question with an interdisciplinary methodology drawn from queer and feminist theories, cultural and media studies, and film adaptation theory. Chapter Two looks back to Jeanette Winterson’s Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit (BBC 1990). I examine this text – the first BBC television serial to feature a lesbian protagonist – to establish a vocabulary for discussing the page-to-screen adaptation of queer identities throughout this dissertation. Chapter Three investigates Waters’s first novel Tipping the Velvet (1998) and its complex intertextual relationship with Andrew Davies’s serialized version (BBC 2002). I also examine responses to the serial in the British press, tracing the ways in which dominant cultural forces seek to domesticate non-normative instances of gender and sexuality. Chapter Four examines Waters’s novel Fingersmith (2002) in relation to Peter Ransley’s adaptation (BBC 2005) to situate adaptations of Waters’s retro-Victorian texts amid the genre of television and film adaptations of Jane Austen novels.
