FROM MUSE TO MILITANT: FRANCOPHONE WOMEN NOVELISTS AND SURREALIST AESTHETICS DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Mary Anne Harsh, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2008 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Danielle Marx-Scouras, Advisor Professor Karlis Racevskis ______________________________ Advisor Professor Sabra Webber French and Italian Graduate Program ABSTRACT In 1924, André Breton launched the Surrealist movement in France with his publication of Manifeste du surréalisme. He and his group of mostly male disciples, prompted by the horrors of World War I, searched for fresh formulas for depicting the bizarre and inhumane events of the era and for reviving the arts in Europe, notably by experimenting with innovative practices which included probing the unconscious mind. Women, if they had a role, were viewed as muses or performed only ancillary responsibilities in the movement. Their participation was usually in the graphic arts rather than in literature. However, in later generations, francophone women writers such as Joyce Mansour and Suzanne Césaire began to develop Surrealist strategies for enacting their own subjectivity and promoting their political agendas. Aside from casual mention, no critic has formally investigated the surreal practices of this sizeable company of francophone women authors. I examine the literary production of seven women from three geographic regions in order to document the enduring capacity of surrealist practice to express human experience in the postcolonial and postmodern era. From the Maghreb I analyze La Grotte éclatée by Yamina Mechakra and L'amour, la fantasia by Assia Djebar, and from Lebanon, L'Excisée by Evelyne Accad. -

Doctoral Dissertations. 1655. https://opencommons.uconn.edu/dissertations/1655 Alternative Biographies: (Re)telling Feminine (Hi)stories in Selected 20th-Century Texts by Québécois Women Writers Jessica A. McBride, PhD University of Connecticut, 2017 The objective of this dissertation is to examine the tendency on the part of several québécois women authors from the 20th century to create alternative feminine biographies for forgotten, undervalued, or misrepresented women from the past. Given the complex relationship the Québécois have with their provincial history, and the central role chauvinistic representations of women and the “Québec national text” play in safeguarding the québécois cultural identity, contemporary women writers from Québec are singularly poised to resurrect, recreate, revive, and rewrite the feminine historical experience into the traditional discourse of History. From Québec’s most famous woman writer, Anne Hébert, to a lesser known militant lesbian playwright, Jovette Marchessault, and other québécois women writers along the spectrum, there exists a common trope: plays and novels in which homo- or heterodiegetic women narrators feel compelled to (re)tell another woman’s feminine (hi)story. Some examples of this practice appear initially to be somewhat traditional works of historical fiction, others ignore almost entirely the referential world beyond the confines of their pages. -

Every Breath is a Wave In what ways can contemporary dance making express an ecofeminist perspective A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Media and Creative Technology at The University of Waikato by Gabriel Anne Baker 2017 Abstract Arising from the growing interest in ecological concerns that intersected with second wave feminism in the 1970s, ecological feminism is a theoretical perspective which argues that the oppression of women is parallel to and mutually reinforcing to that of the natural environment. Interested in the holistic nature of ecofeminist analysis I seek to understand how the processes of contemporary dance making can intersect with the theory and praxis of ecofeminism. Within ecofeminism the body is often used as a reference point for expression and understanding. Contemporary dance making therefore is of relevance for the exploration of ecofeminism as it offers a way of knowing that is of and from the body. -

UC Irvine FlashPoints Title The New Woman: Literary Modernism, Queer Theory, and the Trans Feminine Allegory Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/11z5g0mz ISBN 978081013 5550 Author Heaney, Emma Publication Date 2017-08-01 Peer reviewed eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California The New Woman The FlashPoints series is devoted to books that consider literature beyond strictly national and disciplinary frameworks, and that are distinguished both by their historical grounding and by their theoretical and conceptual strength. Our books engage theory without losing touch with history and work historically without falling into uncritical positivism. FlashPoints aims for a broad audience within the humanities and the social sciences concerned with moments of cultural emergence and transformation. In a Benjaminian mode, FlashPoints is interested in how liter- ature contributes to forming new constellations of culture and history and in how such formations function critically and politically in the present.

Learning to Be Old 12_440_Cruikshank.indb 1 1/17/13 8:53 AM PRAISE FOR PREVIOUS EDITIONS “One of [the book’s] strengths is its weaving of themes from different fields and disciplines. Another is in presentation—it is informative, lively, and well researched.”—Journal of Women & Aging “The major contribution may be her analysis of the potential negative effects of women’s family roles and her suspicion that grandmothers are being exploited. This book . raises a number of important questions.” —Journal of Marriage and Family “In her excellent book, Learning to Be Old, Margaret Cruikshank compares the aged to a ‘colonized people,’ suggesting that ageism goes beyond de- humanization into actual scapegoating of the old.”—The New York Times “This text is such a gem that it is tempting to quote from it non-stop.” —Canadian Women’s Studies “Learning to Be Old is a nice text for both the graduate and undergraduate levels, either in courses on the sociology of aging or in women’s studies courses to provide a feminist perspective on aging.”—The Gerontologist “Compressing a significant amount of important information on issues of race, gender, social class, economics, and ethnicity, Cruikshank has created a readable book on the general theme of gerontology. The current research, theories, and practices outlined by Cruikshank will give readers of all ages insights into ‘learning to be old.’ An extensive bibliography is provided for further study. Essential.”—CHOICE “Sheds light on a particular bias inherent in studying this country’s bur- geoning aging population and asks why unlike gender, race, and sexual orientation—identities that have been reinterpreted as socially constructed phenomena—aging is still seen through physically constructed lenses.” —Tucson Weekly “A valuable book on aging.
