  • Eugenie Pastor-Phd Thesis Moving Intimacies
    MOVING INTIMACIES: A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF “PHYSICAL THEATRES” IN FRANCE AND THE UNITED KINGDOM EUGÉNIE FLEUR PASTOR ROYAL HOLLOWAY, UNIVERSITY OF LONDON DEPARTMENT OF DRAMA AND THEATRE A Thesis submitted as a partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Ph.D. August 2014 1 DECLARATION OF AUTHORSHIP I, Eugénie Fleur Pastor, hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Signed: ______________________ Date: 7 August 2014 2 ABSTRACT This thesis is an exploration of movement in contemporary “physical theatres”. I develop a renewed understanding of “physical theatres” as embodied framework to experience both spectatorship and theatre-making. I analyse how, in this type of performance, movement blurs distinctions between the intimate and the collective, the inside and the outside, thus challenging definitions of intimacy and tactility. The thesis consists of a comparative study of examples of “physical theatres”, in the 21st century, in France and in the UK. The comparison highlights that “physical theatres” practitioners are under-represented in France, a reason I attribute in part to a terminological absence in the French language. The four case studies range from itinerant company Escale and their athletic embodiment of a political ideal to Jean Lambert-wild’s theatre of “micro-movement”, from Told by an Idiot’s position in a traditional theatre context in the UK to my own work within Little Bulb Theatre, where physicality is virtuosic in its non- virtuosity. For each case study, I use a methodology that echoes this exploration of movement and reflects my position within each fieldwork.

  • Framing Environmental Justice: from American to Global Perspectives
    Framing Environmental Justice: From American to Global Perspectives By Ali Brox Submitted to the graduate degree program English and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. ________________________________ Chairperson Byron Caminero-Santangelo ________________________________ Lawrence Buell ________________________________ Giselle Anatol ________________________________ Paul Outka ________________________________ Paul Stock Date Defended: July 3, 2013 ii The Dissertation Committee for Ali Brox certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Framing Environmental Justice: From American to Global Perspectives ________________________________ Chairperson Byron Caminero-Santangelo Date approved: July 3, 2013 iii Abstract This dissertation contests the idea that environmental justice discourse emerges solely from the United States. It creates dialogue between texts that represent a traditional American environmental justice frame and those that depict situations of environmental injustice outside of U.S. borders. It identifies eight coordinates that are crucial components of what can be considered environmental justice discourse. These characteristics become a rubric for establishing a traveling theory of environmental justice and include: issues of scale, types of knowledge and the institutions that produce it, anthropocentric and ecocentric perspectives, realist and constructivist representations, individual and societal responsibilities, identity constructions like race and class, particularist and totalizing representations, and genre considerations. Analysis of Spike Lee’s When the Levees Broke, Ken Saro-Wiwa’s A Month and a Day, Indra Sinha’s Animal’s People, and Amitav Ghosh’s The Hungry Tide reveals that certain coordinates that comprise environmental justice discourse are more fraught than others. I focus on the role of the American activist as reader or character in the texts and how the authors emphasize the coordinates to varying degrees.

  • THEATER REVIEW | 'A DISAPPEARING NUMBER' Human (And Mathematical) Equations
    July 17, 2010 THEATER REVIEW | 'A DISAPPEARING NUMBER' Human (and Mathematical) Equations By CHARLES ISHERWOOD Zeroes, ones, twos and threes glide and slide, shimmy and leap before your eyes in the quietly mesmerizing play “A Disappearing Number,” a production from the British company Complicite that plays through Sunday as part of the Lincoln Center Festival. The familiar little digits we use for all sorts of mundane purposes, like marking time and counting money, slowly begin to acquire talismanic power as they swim across the video screens onstage or blink from a clock in the corner. They get inside your head too. By the conclusion of this engrossing inquiry into the beauty of mathematics and the equations that bind human destinies, even the most casual numerical series — your phone number, say, or that cabby’s ID — may begin to take on mystical significance. Don’t worry about bringing scratch paper and a No. 2 pencil. Math-phobes need have no fear that the play will feel like a statistics lecture or an evening of enforced Sudoku. Sure, there is some daunting talk of string theory and convergent series and the cosine of half pi Z, not to mention the varieties of infinity. But “A Disappearing Number,” which is conceived and directed by Simon McBurney, and which snapped up all the major new- play awards in London when it was first produced in 2007, is lucid, dynamic and continuously engaging. It’s not fundamentally about numbers, either, but about the search for meaning and the consoling satisfaction of finding the patterns that define and describe both the physical universe and individual human lives.

  • It Seems Barely an Exaggeration to Say That Arab and Muslim Americans Are Constantly Talked About but Almost Never Heard From. T
    It seems barely an exaggeration to say that Arab and Muslim Americans are constantly talked about but almost never heard from. The problem is not that they lack representations but that they have too many. And these are all abstractions. Arabs and Muslims have become a foreign-policy issue, an argument on the domestic agenda, a law-enforcement priority, and a point of well-meaning concern. They appear as shadowy characters on terror television shows, have become objects of sociological inquiry, and get paraded around as puppets for public diplomacy…They are floating everywhere in the virtual landscape of the national imagination, as either villains of Islam or victims of Arab culture. — Moustafa Bayoumi, How Does it Feel to be a Problem1 36 Waleed F. Mahdi investigation of the historical trajectory of Hollywood's engagement with the Arab American cultural identity. INTRODUCTION Popular culture in the United States functions through sensational and rating­ based entertainment. It also promotes a hegemonic frame of reference for cultural citizenship and national belonging in the life of "cultural citizens.'" It serves as an ideological state apparatus, to echo French philosopher Louis Althusser, guiding citizens through an acculturation process that homogenizes their own subjectivity.' In this sense, this article defines cultural citizenship as a tool to sUbjectify minorities through the mediation of popular culture.4 In his scholarly reviews of Hollywood's history, Lary May emphasizes the cinema's role in enunciating cultural citizenship. Hollywood, he argues, has been a site of fury for debates around "good citizenship" because of its connection to "political power, cultural authority, and the very meaning of national identity."5 For decades, Hollywood has played a major role in Circulating a popular sense of American collective imagination and manufacturing sensational conceptions of cultural Otherness.
