Signed (candidate) Date Abstract This thesis initiates a diachronic reconsideration of the English literary title. Unlike previous critical studies of titling practices, which focus almost exclusively on modem printed works, the thesis turns to the titling practices of manuscripts, addressing the different forms, functions and meanings of premodem titling. The overlapping of theoretical and material concerns in this under-researched area of book history necessitates a new form of multidisciplinary approach which combines critical theories of titology with codicological and bibliographical modes of enquiry. The introductory chapter contrasts and analyses the different titling practices of contemporary and premodem literary cultures. Chapter two identifies a number of shortcomings in current titological theories and goes on to explore previously overlooked premodem attitudes to titling. The third chapter opens with a consideration of the meanings and uses of the word title specific to the premodem era and the possible influences that ancient and early medieval approaches to identifying and defining texts may have had on later medieval titling. Chapter four considers the growth in external and internal forms of vernacular titling practice evident in selected manuscripts of the eleventh, twelfth and thirteenth centuries. The fifth chapter moves the discussion into the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries as witnessed by three important codices from this time: Oxford, Bodleian Library, Digby 86; Scotland, National Library, Advocates 19. 2. 1 (Auchinleck); and Oxford, Bodleian Library, Eng. poet. a. 1 (Vernon). The conclusion affirms that titling practices did have currency in premodemity, though the identification of texts was a practice that exhibits great diversity, and in that feature, as well as in many others, what may appear superficially to be recognisable as titling stands a significant distance apart from modem concepts of the title and involves many other contemporary assumptions, about (para)texts, authors and readers, which are essential to an understanding of what medieval authors and scribes meant when they identified texts. Acknowledgements This research has been made possible by a Doctoral Studentship from the Arts and Humanities Research Council (2006-09) and a grant from the British Federation of Women Graduates: Funds for Women Graduates (2009-10). There are many people I need to thank for their help with this project. At the very top of the list is my supervisor Helen Phillips who has helped me through over seven years of university education with constant advice, encouragement and understanding. For this I am grateful beyond words. I would also like to thank Nicola Bassett, Martha W. Driver, A. S. G. Edwards, Susanna Fein, Elizabeth Ford, Ruth Kennedy, Roberta Magnani, Anthony Mandal, Haley Miles, Catherine Phelps, Carl Phelpstead, Wendy Scase, Alexandra Smith, Kara Tennant, Kate Watson, Jessica Webb and Heather Worthington for their help, advice and encouragement at various points during this project. I want to thank Martin Coyle and Stephen Knight in particular for their help with the original proposal and with several other research proposals I have submitted more recently. Rob Gossedge and Katie Gamer have proofread various parts of the thesis: thanks to you both for seeing me through the final stages. Throughout the PhD - during its various stages of research, pondering, extended pondering, writing and eventual completion - I have had the constant love and patient support of my friends and family. Boo, Wiz, and Nikkie deserve special thanks. Mum and Dad: you are my inspiration. Steven Rogan: my a ’th kar. I dedicate this research to the memory of my best friend Sarah Chinn, my friend and colleague Alexandra Smith, and my grandmother Elsie Gibbons. Where words otherwise fail me, this should stand instead. We must rest content with the admission that the knowledge of things is not to be derived from names [...] and no man will like to put himself or the education of his mind in the power of names.

It is placed in a specific position, highly determined and regulated by conventional laws: at the beginning of and at a set distance above the body of the text, but in any case before it. The title is generally chosen by the author or by his or her editorial representatives whose property it is. The title names and guarantees the identity, the unity and the boundaries of the original work which it entitles. (Jacques Derrida)1 It is very difficult for us today to forget our preconceptions as to the necessity or appropriateness of using a title in every instance. (Lloyd Daly)2 In the last forty years, the titles attached to texts, literary or otherwise, have been the subject of a small but sustained amount of critical attention.3 In spite of continuing academic interest, the title is regularly overlooked as an aspect of general reading experiences. Twenty-first century readers perhaps more than at any other time have come to expect and accept, without question, the titles that identify the texts - whether these texts are novels, paintings, museum exhibits, films, songs or other - they read or otherwise encounter. If asked to think about literary titles specifically, it is likely that a list of favourite, memorable, and/or familiar titles will spring readily to mind: Pride and Prejudice, Great Expectations, Wuthering Heights , Gone with the Wind , or The Great Gatsby. But what exactly is meant or rather what is understood by the noun title when used in its exclusively literary context? The Oxford English Dictionary (OED) sets out the recognized definition of title in its literary sense as 1 Jacques Derrida, ‘Before the Law’, in Acts of Literature, ed. Derek Attridge (London and New York: Routledge, 1992), pp. 181-220 (p. 188). 2 Lloyd W. Daly, ‘The Entitulature of Pre-Ciceronian Writings’, in Classical Studies in Honor of William Abbott Oldfather (Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 1943), pp. 20-38 (p. 30). 3 This introductory chapter expands research completed as part of the MA dissertation in English Literature at Cardiff University and published after: see Victoria Louise Gibbons, ‘The Manuscript Titles of Truth: Titology and the M edieval Gap’, Journal of the Early Book Society,

  • Normalizing Human-Animal Power Relations Through Media: Zoo Discourses in Turkey
    Makale gönderilme tarihi: 21.06.2019 Makale kabul tarihi: 9.10.2019 Normalizing Human-Animal Power Relations Through Media: Zoo Discourses in Turkey Sezen Ergin Zengin Dr. Araştırma Görevlisi [email protected] Hacettepe Üniversitesi Edebiyat Fakültesi Orcid: 0000-0001-5927-5357 Abstract This study examines zoo discourses on media as a conve- nient site for probing into human-animal power relations. A form of critical discourse analysis is carried out in national daily news discourse focusing on how zoo discourses portray animals through lexical choices, grammatical structures, and discursive strategies of capitalism, hospitality, and conservation. These strategies over- all operate to conceal the domination, oppression, and suffering of captive wild animals behind the benevolent image of the zoo insti- tution promoting conservation, education, and recreation. Through language, animals are constructed, on a superficial level, as sub- jects who enjoy their lives on natural habitats with their families. Yet further analysis reveals a power abuse in which animals are objectified and commodified for an exclusively human agenda. The study concludes that through the naturalizing effect of discourses human dominance over wild animals are never questioned and the zoos grant animals an instrumental value rather than inherent value.

  • Double Erasure in the Tempest: Miranda in Postmodern Critical Discourse1
    Double Erasure in The Tempest: Miranda in Postmodern Critical Discourse1 Sofía Muñoz Valdivieso UNIVERSIDAD DE MÁLAGA [email protected] Miranda is the only female character present in The Tempest, but she has a paradoxical role as the dependent female who is however crucial for the dynamics of power in the play. Political readings of Shakespeare’s plays over the last thirty years have tended to side always with the victims of the power structures represented in each play. In the case of The Tempest, the predominant readings of what we will call the Postmodern paradigm in Shakespearean studies have sided with Caliban as the victim of colonial oppression. We could say that the text of the play erases Miranda as the virtuous and rather bland daughter whose main role is to obey her father and serve his purposes. What I am calling the double erasure of Miranda in The Tempest is my sense that she has also been frequently neglected in recent political readings of the play, which have centered their analysis of its power scheme on the issue of colonialism. Thus they have seen Caliban as a symbol of the exploited native but have often underplayed or ignored the specific repression of Miranda. It is clear that from a feminist perspective the power scheme in The Tempest must be opposed from an anticolonialist stand that also takes into account gender issues. The contributions of Postmodern criticism to our reading of The Tempest have emphasized aspects of the play before unacknowledged and they have shaped what could be called a new paradigm in Shakespearean studies.

In particular, it investigates the ways in which Dante responds to public and private attempts at forging both individual and collective identity in Florence. Selecting key chronicles, inscriptions and visual sources alluded to in the Commedia, the implications of Dante’s representation in terms of his ideological response are then extensively discussed. After introducing the central passages from the Commedia relevant to my project and a review of selected secondary literature on Dante and history, the dissertation introduces the Medieval Latin Chronica de origine civitatis florentiae as Dante’s most important source regarding his city’s foundation. In so doing, the textual readings are informed by the formation and control of memory, history and identity in historical context.

  • Proposal That the President Accept Honorary Irish Citizenship
    Proposal That the President Accept Honorary Irish Citizenship Acceptance by the President of honorary Irish citizenship would fall within the spirit, if not the letter, of the Emoluments Clause of the Constitution. The procedure which has developed under the constitutional provision and its implementing statute would permit the President to participate in the formal ceremonies, accept the written evidence of the award and have it deposited with the Department of State, subject to the subsequent consent of Congress. Even if Congress does not enact consenting legislation, the President could probably have the document conferring honorary Irish citizenship delivered to him by the Department of State after he leaves the White House. May 10, 1963 MEMORANDUM OPINION FOR THE SPECIAL ASSISTANT TO THE PRESIDENT* The Attorney General has asked me to respond to your memorandum of April 17, 1963, with respect to the legal aspects of the proposal that the President accept “honorary Irish citizenship.” For the reasons set forth hereafter, I believe that acceptance by the President of honorary Irish citizenship would fall within the spirit, if not the letter, of Article I, Section 9, Clause 8, of the Constitution which requires that an individual who holds an office of profit or trust under the United States must obtain the consent of Congress in order to accept “any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince or foreign State.” Nevertheless, the procedure which has developed under the constitutional provision and under section 3 of the Act of January 3, 1881 (ch. 32, 21 Stat. 603, 604 (codified at 5 U.S.C.
