    Critical Geographical Queer Semiotics Martin Zebracki School of Geography University of Leeds, UK [email protected] Tommaso M. Milani Department of Linguistics, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg and Department of Swedish, University of Gothenburg [email protected] Critical Geographical Queer Semiotics: Semantics, Syntactics, Pragmatics This Themed Section assembles scholarship on sexual and queer geographies and socio-linguistics to pursue – what we, a collaborating geographer and semiotician, frame as – critical geographical queer semiotics. We regard this as an on-going episteme-techne research frontier at the crossroads of language- focused geographical inquiry (see, e.g., Brown, 2002; Leap and Boellstorff, 2004; Valentine et al., 2008; Browne and Nash, 2010; Murray, 2016) and the unfolding sociolinguistic subdiscipline of linguistic landscaping (see, e.g., Shohamy and Gorter, 2009; Blommaert, 2013; Stroud and Jegels, 2014; Blackwood et al., 2016). At the core of critical geographical queer semiotics are simultaneous knowledge–doings to challenge signs and symbols at the nexus of sexuality, identity and space. This entails a perpetual, unfinished language-driven project, uncovering how text is intrinsically informed by other texts (see intertextuality in Barthes, 1982). Text therefore encompasses a dynamic socio-spatiality interwoven fabric (see Lovejoy, 2004), and can be articulated along multi-scalar, multi- Published with Creative Commons licence: Attribution–Noncommercial–No Derivatives Critical Geographical Queer Semiotics 428 temporal as well as multi-semiotic dimensions of, in this case, everyday sexual citizenship (see Zebracki, 2017). Hence, critical geographical queer semiotics probes into the processes of how discursive systems constitute and deconstruct sexuality-modulated identities of what is known and sensed as ‘place’ (e.g., Scollon and Scollon, 2003).

Acknowledgements. Etymologically, the word ‘thank’ shares its roots with the Indo-European ‘tong-’, to ‘think’ and ‘feel’. When we give thanks today, we may consider the actions or words of others, but I find that tracing this root is generative—it allows me to consider who has helped me think through this thesis, as much as who has helped me feel my way. First, I must thank my supervisors, Andrew Thacker and Catherine Clay. Primarily, of course, my supervisory team has helped me to think: I thank them for pushing me as a reader, a critic and a writer, while giving me the space to work on other projects that have shored me up in myriad ways. And yet Andrew and Cathy have also allowed me to feel—they have given me the space to try, test, write and rewrite.

    GEOG 507: QUEER GEOGRAPHIES Winter 2017 Wednesdays 2:35-5:25, Burnside 429 Prof. Natalie Oswin E-mail: [email protected] Tel: 514-398-5232 Office: Burnside 418 Office hours: Wednesday 10:00-11:00 (or by appointment) Course description: Over the last few decades, geographers have been engaging with queer theory to explore the relationship between sexuality and space. The resulting body of work has greatly expanded our understanding of the spatial productions and expressions of sexual identities. But this important contribution is somewhat paradoxical since queer theory advances a critique of the idea of sexual identity. In this seminar we will go beyond locating ‘queers in space’ to instead advance a ‘queer approach to space’. We will consider the ways in which queer theory can be used in concert with postcolonial, critical race, feminist, and materialist theories. Moving away from a literal sexual referent, we will consider how broad constellations of power involving dynamics of race, gender, class, colonialism, geopolitics, migration, nationalism, and globalization are central to expressions of heternormativity and homonormativity. Though our focus is on developing understanding of queer geographies, the questions we will explore are thoroughly interdisciplinary. As such, the reading list comes from various fields including geography, sociology, cultural studies, law, history and anthropology. Prerequisites: Permission of the instructor. No geography background necessary. This course qualifies as complementary for women’s studies and sexual diversity studies students. Readings: Readings will be made available on myCourses. Evaluation: Requirement Value Date Participation 50% Ongoing Essay proposal 10% March 8 Essay 40% April 5 Participation I expect that you will engage with all course materials and attend all classes.

In this paper, I seek to highlight 11 the breadth and depth of contemporary work on sexuality and 12 space by exploring the contributions made by geographers to the 13 theorization of heteronormativity. Specifically, this paper explores 14 how heterosexual norms are maintained and performed spatially, 15 noting the increasing body of work which moves beyond 16 examination of heterosexuality’s Other (i.e. homosexuality) to 17 consider the multiple desires and bodies that can be 18 accommodated within the category ‘heterosexual’. Moving from 19 urban to rural contexts, this paper hence reviews literatures 20 detailing how particular heterosexual practices are rendered 21 normal, concluding that this literature is usefully shifting from a 22 focus on identity and community to questions of practice and 23 performance. 24 1 1 Introduction 2 3 Long marginalized in the academy, studies of sexuality have now 4 become a familiar – if sometimes contested – fixture in the 5 geographical curriculum.

Rubin To my family ii Acknowledgements I am grateful for the many people in my life whose support made it possible for me to write this story. First and foremost, I could not have completed this dissertation or graduate school without the love and encouragement my family continually provides. This project would not have taken the shape it has without my wife, Jaime Brunton. Your willingness to engage in numerous conversations about the questions and issues I grapple with in my dissertation has enriched my thinking and this manuscript. Thank you for helping me celebrate the achievements and calming me through the transitions. I’m looking forward to our adventures in Nebraska! May the prairie hold good things for our family. My parents, Don and Lucy Kazyak, have done a beautiful job of recognizing my academic accomplishments alongside other important moments that have occurred in my life over the past six years. That balance has given me the ability to stay grounded, connected to my roots, and humble through this process. Thank you both for your unconditional love. I am equally grateful for the support from my brother and sister in- law, Brian Kazyak and Shannon Preston-Kazyak, and my sister and brother in-law, Alison and Jeff Weinschenk.
