Feminist Periodicals a Current Listing of Contents WOMEN’S STUDIES LIBRARIAN FEMINIST PERIODICALS A CURRENT LISTING OF CONTENTS Volume 31 Number 2 Spring 2011 University of Wisconsin System W OMEN ’ S S TUDIES Feminist L IBRARIAN Periodicals A Current Listing of Contents Volume 31, Number 2 (Spring 2011) Periodical literature is the cutting edge of women’s scholarship, feminist theory, and much of women’s culture. Feminist Periodicals: A Current Listing of Contents is published by the Office of the University of Wisconsin System Women’s Studies Librarian on a quarterly basis with the intent of increasing public awareness of feminist periodicals. It is our hope that Feminist Periodicals will serve several purposes: to keep the reader abreast of current topics in feminist literature; to increase readers’ familiarity with a wide spectrum of feminist periodicals; and to provide the requisite bibliographic information should a reader wish to subscribe to a journal or to obtain a particular article at her library or through interlibrary loan. (Users will need to be aware of the limitations of copyright law with regard to photocopying of copyrighted materials.) Table of contents pages from current issues of major feminist journals are reproduced in each issue of Feminist Periodicals, followed by a comprehensive annotated listing of all journals we have selected. As publication schedules vary enormously, not every periodical will have table of contents pages reproduced in each issue of FP. The annotated listing provides the following information on each journal: 1. Year of first publication. 2. Frequency of publication. 3. Subscription prices (print only; for online prices, consult publisher). 4. Subscription address. 5. Current editor. 6. Editorial address (if different from subscription address). 7. International Standard Serials Number (ISSN). 8. OCLC, Inc. Control Number. 9. Selected publications in which the journal is indexed. 10. Selected fulltext products in which publication appears or vendor intermediaries who make the full text available. 11. Subject focus/statement of purpose of the journal. Please note that in the actual text, only the numbers 1 to 11 are used to identify the different categories of information. Our goal in Feminist Periodicals is to represent English-language periodicals from around the world that focus on gender, women's studies, or women's issues. Generally, we do not include mainstream newsstand magazines. We are also unable to include periodicals that lack a complete table of contents. We encourage feminist serials to build a full table of contents into their regular format to facilitate possible inclusion in FP and indexing elsewhere. University of Wisconsin System users: To locate these periodicals within the UW System, do a UW System/Universal Borrowing search from your campus catalog (labeled variously “Other Libraries,” “More Libraries,” “Other Catalogs,” “Other UW Catalogs,” etc.) If information on actual holdings (volumes and issues) is not in the records retrieved, contact the Reference Department at the library of interest. Suggestions for improvements of Feminist Periodicals are gratefully received. We would particularly appreciate assistance from readers in the UW System with our efforts to keep the holding information complete and up to date. Please let us know about new subscriptions, subscriptions we have overlooked, cancellations, or other pertinent information.

    How to Get a Norm from a Speech Act Rae Langton The Amherst Lecture in Philosophy lectureP 10, 2015 http://www.amherstlecture.org/ the amherst lecture in philosophyP Lecture 10, 2015 How to Get a Norm from a Speech Act Rae Langton Preferred citation Langton, Rae. “How to Get a Norm from a Speech Act.” The Amherst Lecture in Philosophy 10 (2015): 1–33. <http://www.amherstlecture.org/langton2015/>. Abstract Doing things with words can create an ought that was not there before: Jones makes a promise, a master orders a slave. With the former example, Searle ‘derived’ an ought from an is. With the latter, Lewis showed that permissibility follows a ‘rule of accommodation’. The parallel between promise and order suggests that norms, good and bad, can be got from speech acts by accommodation: what is said ‘requires and thereby creates’ what is required, given certain conditions. Authority is such a condition: of a slave master, a desert island leader, a doctor, a quack doctor, a father, or a presidential candidate who ‘normalizes’ a behaviour. Authority can be pre-established, or gained by accommodation. It can be practical, or epistemic. It can belong to the speaker, or be outsourced. These cross-cutting distinctions allow for weakened authority, but a power to enact directives remains. Hearers can assist: in a two-part process, hearers accommodate presupposed authority, which in turn accommodates a speech act, cre- ating a norm. As hearers we may need, sometimes, to stop helping. The Amherst Lecture in Philosophy (ISSN: 1559-7199) is a free on-line journal, published by the Department of Philosophy, Amherst College, Amherst, MA 01002.

    FEMALE FRIENDSHIP FILMS: A POST-FEMINIST EXAMINATION OF REPRESENTATIONS OF WOMEN IN THE FASHION INDUSTRY Gülin Geloğulları UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS Approved by the Thesis Committee: Dr. George S. Larke-Walsh Dr. Jacqueline Vickery Dr. Sandra L. Spencer Geloğulları, Gülin. Female Friendship Films: A Post-Feminist Examination of Representations of Women in the Fashion Industry. Master of Arts (Radio, Television, and Film), December 2015, 101 pp., references, 56 titles. This thesis focuses on three fashion industry themed female friendship films: Pret-a- Porter/Ready to Wear (1994) by Robert Altman, The Devil Wears Prada (2006) by David Frankel, and The September Issue (2009) by R.J. Cutler. Female interpersonal relationships are complex – women often work to motivate, encourage and transform one another but can just as easily use tactics like intimidation, manipulation, and exploitation in order to save their own jobs and reputations. Through the lens of post-feminist theory, this thesis examines significant female interpersonal relationships in each film to illustrate how femininity is constructed and driven by consumer culture in the fashion industry themed films. Copyright 2015 by Gülin Geloğulları ii This thesis is dedicated to my first playmate, best friend, bodyguard, guardian angel, dreamcatcher, teacher, academic adviser, mentor, bank, real hero and brother: Dr. Cumhur Alper Geloğulları.

The chain of events begins when Garibooli, a young Aboriginal girl, is removed by authorities in 1918, never to be reunited with her family. The subsequent search for identity by the generations of children stemming from Garibooli reveals scars within the Aboriginal community that can never be healed completely. Behrendt cleverly shows this search for identity and belonging in a colonial world by following the children and grandchildren of Garibooli, as Garibooli was made to feel too ashamed to pass on her heritage to her progeny. The numerous characters give human faces and experiences to a highly politicised issue in contemporary Australian society, making Home a solid text in which to explore these issues in the classroom.

  • Feminism, Postfeminism, Liz Lemonism: Comedy and Gender Politics on 30 Rock
    Genders 1998-2013 Genders 1998-2013 Genders 1998-2013 Home (/gendersarchive1998-2013/) Feminism, Postfeminism, Liz Lemonism: Comedy and Gender Politics on 30 Rock Feminism, Postfeminism, Liz Lemonism: Comedy and Gender Politics on 30 Rock May 1, 2012 • By Linda Mizejewski (/gendersarchive1998-2013/linda-mizejewski) [1] The title of Tina Fey's humorous 2011 memoir, Bossypants, suggests how closely Fey is identified with her Emmy-award winning NBC sitcom 30 Rock (2006-), where she is the "boss"—the show's creator, star, head writer, and executive producer. Fey's reputation as a feminist—indeed, as Hollywood's Token Feminist, as some journalists have wryly pointed out—heavily inflects the character she plays, the "bossy" Liz Lemon, whose idealistic feminism is a mainstay of her characterization and of the show's comedy. Fey's comedy has always focused on gender, beginning with her work on Saturday Night Live (SNL) where she became that show's first female head writer in 1999. A year later she moved from behind the scenes to appear in the "Weekend Update" sketches, attracting national attention as a gifted comic with a penchant for zeroing in on women's issues. Fey's connection to feminist politics escalated when she returned to SNL for guest appearances during the presidential campaign of 2008, first in a sketch protesting the sexist media treatment of Hillary Clinton, and more forcefully, in her stunning imitations of vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin, which launched Fey into national politics and prominence. [2] On 30 Rock, Liz Lemon is the head writer of an NBC comedy much likeSNL, and she is identified as a "third wave feminist" on the pilot episode.

Biljana Oklopčić Osijek, 2011. Summary The paper explains what the Cult of True Womanhood is and how it manifested itself in the period of its strongest influence, the nineteenth century. It goes on to explain how it degraded women, and how certain Victorian writers saw it fit to deny virtues it expected of women by means of their literary work. Subversion of this Cult is observed on two works by two authors; Kate Chopin and her novel The Awakening, and Charlotte Perkins Gilman and her short story „The Yellow Wallpaper“. On various examples and quotations, it explains how the authors rebelled against the norm forced upon women by Victorian society. The paper concludes these two literary efforts to be the cornerstone of future feminist literature. Key words: subversion, true womanhood, oppression, Kate Chopin, Charlotte Perkins Gilman Contents: Introduction......................................................................................................................................1

  • Self-Narrative, Feminist Theory and Writing Practice
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by ResearchArchive at Victoria University of Wellington ON SHIFTING GROUND: Self-narrative, feminist theory and writing practice By Anne Else A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Victoria University of Wellington 2006 To Susan Moller Okin 1946-2004 Abstract This thesis centres on a problem that stands at the heart of feminist theory: how women may come to understand themselves as speaking subjects located within historically specific, discursive social structures, to question those structures aloud, and to seek to change them. It combines self-narrative, feminist theory and writing practice to make sense of a body of published work which I produced between 1984 and 1999, with a consistent focus on some form of gendered discourse, by setting it in its personal, historical, and theoretical contexts. Although the thesis is built around published work, it is not primarily about results or outcomes, but rather about a set of active historical processes. Taking the form of a spirally structured critical autobiography spanning five and a half decades, it traces how one voice of what I have termed feminist oppositional imagining has emerged and taken its own worded shape. First, it constructs a double story of coming to writing and coming to feminism, in order to explore the formation of a writing subject and show the critical importance of the connections between subjectivity and oppositional imagining, and to highlight the need to find ways of producing knowledge which do not rely on the notion of the detached observer.

  • CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION A. Background of the Study Twilight Is One of the Most Popular Movies of This Year That Ever Produced. Th
    1 CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION A. Background of the Study Twilight is one of the most popular movies of this year that ever produced. The screenplay of this film is adapted from the novel with the same title written by Stephenie Meyer. Stephenie Meyer is an American author best known for her vampire romance series Twilight who was born on December 24, 1973 in Hartford. The Twilight novels have gained worldwide recognition, won multiple literary awards and sold over 85million copies worldwide, with translation into 37 different languages. Meyer is also the author of the adult science-fiction novel The Host (2008). Following the success of Twilight (2005), Meyer expended the story into a series three more books: New Moon (2006), Eclipse (2007), and Breaking Down (2008). She also writes short stories which one of them published in Prom Nights from Hell, a collection stories about bad prom nights with supernatural effects. It has been released in April 2007. Twilight movie is directed by Catherine Hardwicke, an American production designer and film director and screenplay by Melissa Rosenberg. Twilight is better known as the maker romance and fantasy film, sometimes centering on vampire society’s life. Twilight is a 2008 romantic fantasy film. It is the first film in The Twilight saga film series. Twilight focuses on the development of a personal relationship between human teenager Bella Swan and vampire Edward Cullen and the subsequent efforts of Cullen and his family to keep Swan safe from a separate group of hostile vampires. Seventeen-year-old Isabella "Bella" Swan moves to Forks, a small town near Washington State’s rugged coast, to live with her father, Charlie, after her mother remarries to a minor league baseball player.
