  • Spinster Ecology
    SPINSTER ECOLOGY: RETHINKING RELATION IN THE AMERICAN LITERARY ENVIRONMENT A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Sarah Elizabeth Ensor August 2012 © 2012 Sarah Elizabeth Ensor Sarah Elizabeth Ensor, Ph.D. Cornell University 2012 Spinster Ecology develops a practice of queer ecocriticism by articulating intersections between nineteenth-century American literature and twentieth-century environmental thought. Focusing on texts by Sarah Orne Jewett, Henry David Thoreau, and Rachel Carson in which attention to the natural world is interwoven with a particularly reticent form of social interaction, the dissertation argues for the relational capacity of interpersonal and environmental forces typically understood to preclude connection: distance and remoteness, absence and silence, backwardness and death. Rethinking these categories as relational helps both to identify and to remedy a theoretical impasse that currently divides queer theory from ecocriticism: namely, the fields’ conflicting stances toward (reproductive) futurity and toward the status of desire, pleasure, and limitation. Early attempts at queering ecocriticism have tended to emphasize non- normative uses of natural spaces or to trouble the conceptions of nature and “the natural” that undergird mainstream environmentalism. My project, by contrast, locates queer theory’s contribution to ecocriticism in questions of temporality, sociality, and tone. More specifically, I identify the spinster as a model for paradigms of relation, transmission, and inheritance that are indirect or askance. Taking heed of spinsterliness not only as a characterological or biographical phenomenon but also in its formal and stylistic instantiations, I argue, can help queer ecocriticism better engage literature.

  • 1851 Newspaper Reports
    COMPILATION OF CANAL TRADE ARTICLES FROM THE ALLEGANIAN a Cumberland newspaper and THE SUN a Baltimore newspaper and GEORGETOWN ADVOCATE DAILY AMERICAN TELEGRAPH two Washington, D. C. newspaper and ALEAXNDRIA GAZETTE an Alexandria, Va. newspaper 1851 Compiled and Edited by William Bauman C & O Canal Association Volunteer [email protected] REVISION 1 - MARCH 2018 REVISION 2 – MAY 2020 REVISION 3 – MAY 2021 Canal Trade - 1851 A. PREFACE In this compilation, articles were transcribed from The Alleganian, a Cumberland newspaper, The Sun, a Baltimore newspaper (identified by Sun appearing before the article), Georgetown Advocate (identified by GA appearing before the article) and Daily American Telegraph (identified by DAT appearing before the article) two Washington, D. C. newspapers, and Alexandria Gazette (identified by AG appearing before the article) an Alexandria, Va. newspaper, unless otherwise footnoted. The articles were compiled, chronologically in a two-column format, just as they appeared in the newspapers. Note that no boats loaded on Sunday; if it was just that the newspaper did not publish on Sunday, then the Monday edition would have listed the Sunday traffic. It does not. Some dates during the boating season were missing. The Alleganian newspaper was found on microfilm at the library at Frostburg State University, Frostburg, MD. The Sun, the Georgetown Advocate the Daily American Telegraph and the Alexandria Gazette newspapers were found on-line. The research continues because the reader may yet find a missing date or a canal related article from another newspaper. There is a lot of duplication in information due to the different newspapers publishing similar articles about, for example Canal Trade, wherein the reporters for the newspapers had different deadlines for reporting the data and thus the lists have different boats, distances, and/or cargo.

  • Doukhobor Problem,” 1899-1999
    Spirit Wrestling Identity Conflict and the Canadian “Doukhobor Problem,” 1899-1999 By Ashleigh Brienne Androsoff A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy, Graduate Department of History, in the University of Toronto © by Ashleigh Brienne Androsoff, 2011 Spirit Wrestling: Identity Conflict and the Canadian “Doukhobor Problem,” 1899-1999 Ashleigh Brienne Androsoff Degree of Doctor of Philosophy, Graduate Department of History, University of Toronto, 2011 ABSTRACT At the end of the nineteenth century, Canada sought “desirable” immigrants to “settle” the Northwest. At the same time, nearly eight thousand members of the Dukhobori (commonly transliterated as “Doukhobors” and translated as “Spirit Wrestlers”) sought refuge from escalating religious persecution perpetrated by Russian church and state authorities. Initially, the Doukhobors’ immigration to Canada in 1899 seemed to satisfy the needs of host and newcomer alike. Both parties soon realized, however, that the Doukhobors’ transition would prove more difficult than anticipated. The Doukhobors’ collective memory of persecution negatively influenced their perception of state interventions in their private affairs. In addition, their expectation that they would be able to preserve their ethno-religious identity on their own terms clashed with Canadian expectations that they would soon integrate into the Canadian mainstream. This study focuses on the historical evolution of the “Doukhobor problem” in Russia and in Canada. It argues that
