  • An Examination of Gender and Subjectivity in Hubert Selby
    OBSCENITY, GENDER, AND SUBJECTIVITY OBSCENITY, GENDER, AND SUBJECTIVITY: AN EXAMINATION OF GENDER AND OBSCENITY IN HUBERT SELBY JR.'S LAST EXIT TO BROOKLYN, GLORIA NAYLOR'S THE WOMEN OF BREWSTER PLACE, AND NTOZAKE SHANGE'S FOR COLORED GIRLS WHO HAVE CONSIDERED SUICIDE WHEN THE RAINBOW IS ENUF BY BRUCE ROBERT ALLAN LORD, B.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts McMaster University (c) Copyright by Bruce R.A. Lord, September 1991 MASTER OF ARTS (1991) McMASTER UNIVERSITY (English) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: Obscenity, Gender, and Subjectivity: An Examination of Gender and Subjectivity in Hubert Selby Jr.'s Last Exit to Brooklyn, Gloria Naylor's The Women of Brewster Place, and Ntozake Shange's for colored girls who have considered suicide when the rainbow is enuf AUTHOR: Bruce Robert Allan Lord, B.A. (University of Western Ontario) SUPERVISOR: Dr. Mary O'Connor NUMBER OF PAGES: vi, 87 ii Abstract This thesis examines how obscenity can be used either to maintain or to challenge gender stereotypes. Though this thesis focuses on only three texts, the questions raised concerning the relation between obscenity, gender, and subjectivity have wide applications. The primary theory applied here is a feminist poststructuralism which sees gender as socially constructed through language. According to poststructuralism, everything is formed socially or culturally through language. This includes the realities people experience of themselves and their surroundings; therefore, the language used to describe, and ultimately to construct, gender, is extremely important for a feminist critique of gender construction in our patriarchal society.

LYRICS AND THE LAW: CENSORSHIP OF ROCK-AND-ROLL IN THE UNITED STATES AND GREAT BRITAIN 1. INTRODUCTION The year 1954 marks a watershed in American popular music-the beginning of rock-and-roll. Thirty-eight years later rock-and-roll is still a vibrant and distinct music form, although difficult to define because of its complex blend of influences and its evolution over four decades. Carl Belz, a music historian, uses the you-know-it-when-you-hear-it approach, namely, that "[a]ny listener who wants rock defined specifically is probably unable to recognize it."' Rock music has always had dedicated fans and equally devoted enemies. This note will explore the attempts to censor rock music, comparing censorship efforts in the United States with those in Great Britain.

Included are lengthy extracts from the discussion. Participants at the conference were from the biologic and social sciences. The goal of the conference was not so much to reveal answers to problems as to make sure the right questions were being asked, in the hope that the ultimate answers might serve as guides to social and political action. The seven parts into which the conference was divided emphasized these aspects of human development: earliest influences; physical and chemical growth and development; socialization in early childhood; cognition and learning; adolescence; the city; institutions, economics and the law. All of the papers are timely; some were freshly updated before this publication. The issues discussed present the need for study and research, and for community action that will help children to live creative and productive lives.
