  • Darwinism, Heredity, and Atavism in Thomas Hardy's Novels
    Journal of Literature and Art Studies, August 2019, Vol. 9, No. 8, 830-839 doi: 10.17265/2159-5836/2019.08.003 D DAVID PUBLISHING “I Am the Family Face”: Darwinism, Heredity, and Atavism in Thomas Hardy’s Novels QI Jun-jie Department of Etudes Anglaises, University of Sorbonne Nouvelle-Paris 3, Paris, France 19th-century scientific breakthroughs and developments exerted huge influence upon Thomas Hardy’s literary work, among which Darwinian discourses as well as issues of heredity and degeneration have attracted considerable critical attention. These scientific discourses can find their literary echoes in Hardy’s novels. Hardy’s characters are trapped by biological determinism and are therefore deprived of freewill, a devastating element which contributes to Hardy’s tragic vision. In Hardy’s early novels, Darwinism and other scientific issues are dealt with in a discursive manner, as is the case in A Pair of Blue Eyes; it is only in his late novels, especially in Tess of the d’Urbervilles and Jude the Obscure, that Hardy finally succeeds in incorporating Darwinian and hereditary discourses into his literary and philosophical conception and design. Thus to use a Darwinian term, this paper investigates the evolutionary process in which Hardy grows gradually adept in his artistic attempt to fuse the contemporary scientific discourses with his literary imagination, as well as in using scientific issues to mediate between authorial intention and critical expectation. Keywords: Darwinism, heredity, pedigree, atavism, pathology The influence of 19th-century scientific breakthroughs and developments on Thomas Hardy has been widely acknowledged and examined, among which Darwinian discourses and issues of heredity and degeneration have attracted considerable critical attention.

  • Imperialism and the 1999 Women's World Cup
    IMPERIALISM AND THE 1999 WOMEN’S WORLD CUP: REPRESENTATIONS OF THE UNITED STATES AND NIGERIAN NATIONAL TEAMS IN THE U.S. MEDIA by Michele Canning A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of The Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Florida Atlantic University Boca Raton, Florida April 2009 Copyright by Michele Canning 2009 ii ABSTRACT Author: Michele Canning Title: Imperialism and the 1999 Women’s World Cup: Representations of the United States and Nigerian National Teams in the U.S. Media Institution: Florida Atlantic University Thesis Advisor: Dr. Josephine-Beoku-Betts Degree: Master of Arts Year: 2009 This research examines the U.S. media during the 1999 Women’s World Cup from a feminist postcolonial standpoint. This research adds to current feminist scholarship on women and sports by de-centering the global North in its discourse. It reveals the bias of the media through the representation of the United States National Team as a universal “woman” athlete and the standard for international women’s soccer. It further argues that, as a result, the Nigerian National Team was cast in simplistic stereotypes of race, class, ethnicity, and nation, which were often also appropriated and commodified. I emphasize that the Nigerian National Team resisted this construction and fought to secure their position in the global soccer landscape. I conclude that these biased representations, which did not fairly depict or value the contributions of diverse competing teams, were primarily employed to promote and sell the event to a predominantly white middle-class American audience.

  • Dave Presher Began Work at the San Diego Spirit of the Women’S United Soccer Association, the WUSA’S Mortal Wounds Had Already Been (Self) Inflicted
    By the time Dave Presher began work at the San Diego Spirit of the Women’s United Soccer Association, the WUSA’s mortal wounds had already been (self) inflicted. After blowing through three-years of seed money in an orgy of spending leading up to opening day of its inaugural season, the WUSA stared into the abyss after two seasons of staggering financial losses. Corporate sponsorship badly underperformed expectations and TV ratings barely registered - distressing for a league founded and subsidized by cable television operators. Presher was a 20-year sales veteran of the radio industry, but a pro sports novice. He was expected to apply his promotional know-how to fill seats for the Spirit, a club which already paced the WUSA in season ticket sales. Although brought on as a revenue-side hire, Presher immediately dove into player personnel - transforming an on-field product he found “in shambles“. Trades in the WUSA were rare and unremarkable. The top American players held an equity stake in the league and a say in which cities they agreed to play in. A few weeks into the job, Presher engineered the biggest trade in league history, shipping veterans Shannon Boxx, Margaret Tietjen and Sherrill Kester, along with the #2 overall pick in the 2003 college draft, to the New York Power. In return, San Diego received the #1 overall pick and midfielders Jen Lalor and Wynne McIntosh. The key to the trade was that #1 pick, which Presher used to draft Aly Wagner, the young U.S. National Team midfielder projected to be the best attacking player of her generation.
