Cartographers As Critics: Staking Claims in the Mapping of American Literature
Cartographers as Critics: Staking Claims in the Mapping of American Literature by Kyle Carsten Wyatt A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of English Collaborative Program in Book History & Print Culture University of Toronto © Copyright by Kyle Carsten Wyatt 2011 Cartographers as Critics: Staking Claims in the Mapping of American Literature Kyle Carsten Wyatt Doctor of Philosophy Department of English Collaborative Program in Book History & Print Culture University of Toronto 2011 Abstract “Cartographers as Critics: Staking Claims in the Mapping of American Literature” recuperates the print culture phenomenon of literary map production, which became popular in North America around 1898. A literary map can be defined as any pictorial map that depicts imaginative worlds or authorial associations across geopolitical space. While notable examples have circulated for centuries in bound books, such as Thomas More’s Utopia and William Faulkner’s Absalom, Absalom!, the majority of twentieth- century literary maps were ephemeral productions that have not survived in great numbers. These discursive documents functioned as compelling expressions of literary taste and cultural values; they circulated in magazines and newspapers, as gas station promotional giveaways and diner placemats, and as classroom “equipment.” Extant literary maps offer new perspectives on turn-of-the-twentieth century U.S. literary nationalism and the Public Library Movement, “fiction debates” and “Great Books” -

MIDWESTERN ANARCHIST WOMEN WRITERS OF THE NINETEENTH CENTURY by Michelle M. Campbell A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of Purdue University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of English West Lafayette, Indiana May 2019 2 THE PURDUE UNIVERSITY GRADUATE SCHOOL STATEMENT OF COMMITTEE APPROVAL Dr. Christian Knoeller, Chair Department of English Dr. Bill V. Mullen Department of American Studies Dr. Jesse Cohn Department of English, Purdue University Northwest Dr. Derek Pacheco Department of English Approved by: Dr. Manushang Powell Head of the Graduate Program 3 To Rueben, who makes sure I don’t take myself too seriously 4 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First and foremost, I’d like to thank my chair, Dr. Christian Knoeller. Christian has taught me, by example, humility and grace in my research and writing. I knew going into my doctoral studies that I wanted an advisor and mentor for whom I did not feel afraid to write, and I knew the moment that Christian gave me feedback on my first piece of writing that I had found the right person. Not only that, but by letting me take the wheel (and letting me be critical enough for the both of us), Christian has given me the space I knew I needed to become a researcher who knows what she wants and isn’t afraid to fight for it. I would also like to thank my committee members, Dr. Bill V. Mullen, Dr. Jesse Cohn, and Dr. Derek Pacheco. Bill and Jesse have been enthusiastic supporters of all facets of my radical research since I have known them, and they have helped to guide and shape my idea of what it means to think about hidden and radical narratives, especially in the United States. -

1 Standing Tall, the Stiletto Heel As Material
STANDING TALL, THE STILETTO HEEL AS MATERIAL MEMORY: A CONTEMPORARY CROSS-CULTURAL LOOK AT PERCEPTIONS OF THE STILETTO HEEL FRANCESCA D’ANGELO A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN HUMANITIES YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO 1 To my sweetest thing, Sofia Negro, who I hope will never fear the things she chooses to wear, I dedicate this manifesto. 2 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS As I compile this list of acknowledgments, I feel both this overwhelming sense of relief, excitement, giddy joy as well as a bit of a heavy heart as this point confirms for me that this thesis has in fact reached its end. All those close ties I built while compiling this work, all the beautiful links this project help build with wonderful people who admired, supported or informed my work in a myriad of ways, like Professors Susan Ingram, Markus Reisenleitner, Steve Bailey, Kevin Dowler, will in some ways come undone; and when people now ask “what’s your PhD on” I’ll have to answer in past tense, or when they ask “what are you working on?” who knows what I’ll now say? But to stray from melancholic meanderings, I turn to that green light, to the promise of the future and say thank you to all the wonderful people I have met along the way and to hope that this is not just an end but just a part of our continuum. Firstly, I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to Professor Susan Ingram, my supervisor, whose continued support and emotional and professional guidance during my PhD research was what helped catapult this thesis to completion. -
The Making of John B. Gough (1817-1886): Temperance Celebrity, Evangelical Pageantry, and the Conservatism of Popular Reform in Victorian Society
The Making of John B. Gough (1817-1886): Temperance Celebrity, Evangelical Pageantry, and the Conservatism of Popular Reform in Victorian Society Xi Chen A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2013 Reading Committee: William J. Rorabaugh, Chair Richard Johnson R. Kent Guy Program Authorized to Offer Degree: History @Copyright 2013 Xi Chen University of Washington Abstract The Making of John B. Gough (1817-1886): Temperance Celebrity, Evangelical Pageantry, and the Conservatism of Popular Reform in Victorian Society Xi Chen Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Dr. William J. Rorabaugh History Department The dissertation is partly a biography of John Bartholomew Gough, a transatlantic temperance celebrity and one of the most popular itinerant lecturers of the Victorian era. It is also a social history of Gough’s supporters and opponents, an intellectual history of the friction he incited between the temperance and prohibition factions, and a cultural history of the paradoxes inherent in the popularization of evangelical temperance reform. By focusing on the controversies surrounding Gough and through analysis of newspapers, pamphlets, memoirs, and private diaries and correspondence, the dissertation reconstructs the deepening socioeconomic and ideological fault lines that came to define the temperance movement in the mid-19th century. It re-evaluates the connections between evangelical temperance and radical reform issues, such as abolition and women’s rights. It argues that Gough’s rise to stardom was intertwined with the coming-of-age of the conservative evangelical mercantile class, and that the evangelical temperance ethos he championed became popular, as it iii was being diluted and commodified as a marker of social respectability and detached from social and political action.
