Feminist Periodicals: A Current Listing of Contents is published by the Office of the University of Wisconsin System Women's Studies Librarian on a quarterly basis with the intent of increasing public awareness of feminist periodicals. It is our hope that Feminist Periodicals will serve several purposes: to keep the reader abreast of current topics in feminist literature; to increase readers' familiarity with a wide spectrum of feminist periodicals; and to provide the requisite bibliographic information should a reader wish to subscribe to a journal or to obtain a particular article at her library or through interlibrary loan. (Users will need to be aware of the limitations of the new copyright law with regard to photocopying of copyrighted materials.) Table ofcontents pages from current issues ofmajor feministjournals are reproduced in each issue ofFeminist Periodicals, preceded by a comprehensive annotated listing of all journals we have selected. As publication schedules vary enormously, not every periodical will have table of contents pages reproduced in each issue of FP. The annotated listing provides the following information on each journal: 1. Year of first publication. 2. Frequency of publication. 3. U.S. subscription price(s). 4. Subscription address. 5. Current editor. 6. Editorial address (if different from subscription address). 7. International Standard Serials Number (ISSN). 8. Library of Congress (LC) catalog card number. 9. OCLC, Inc. Control Number. 10. Locations where the journal is held in the UW System. 11. Publications in which the journal is indexed. 12. Subject focuslstatement of purpose of the journal. Please note that in the actual text, only the numbers 1 to 12 are used to identify the different categories of information. ii. Our goal is to have represented in FP all English-language feminist periodicals with a substantial national or regional readership, with an emphasis on scholarly journals and small press offerings. We do not include publications which, though feminist in philosophy, do not focus solely on women's issues. Nor, with few exceptions, dowe include newsstand magazines. We are also forced to omit periodicals which lack a complete table of contents. We encourage feminist serials to build a full table of contents into their regular format to facilitate the indexing feminist literature sorely needs. Interested readerswill find more complete information on feminist periodicals in DWM: A DirectoryofWomen's Media published by the National Council for Research on Women (530 Broadway at Spring Street, New York, NY 10012); and in Women's Periodicals and Newspapers: A Union List of the Holdings of Madison Area Libraries, edited by James P. Danky, compiled by Maureen E. Hady, Barry Christopher, and Neill E. Strache (Boston: G.K. Hall, 1982). Suggestions for improvements of Feminist Periodicals are gratefully received. We would particularly appre­ ciate assistance from readers in the UW-System with our efforts to keep the holding information complete and up to date. Please let us know about new subscriptions, subscriptions we have overlooked, cancellations, or other pertinent information.

  • Subrosa Tactical Biopolitics
    14 Common Knowledge and Political Love subRosa . the body has been for women in capitalist society what the factory has been for male waged workers: the primary ground of their exploitation and resistance, as the female body has been appropriated by the state and men, and forced to function as a means for the reproduction and accumulation of labor. Thus the importance which the body in all its aspects—maternity, childbirth, sexuality—has acquired in feminist theory and women’s history has not been misplaced. silvia federici (2004, p. 16) Under capitalism, femininity and gender roles became a “labor” function, and women became a “labor class.”1 On one hand, women’s bodies and labor are revered and exploited as a “natural” resource, a biocommons or commonwealth that is fundamental to maintain- ing and continuing life: women are equated with “the lands,” “mother-earth,” or “the homelands.”2 On the other hand, women’s sexual and reproductive labor—motherhood, pregnancy, childbirth—is economically devalued and socially degraded. In the Biotech Century, women’s bodies have become fl esh labs and Pharma-commons: They are mined for eggs, embryonic tissues, and stem cells for use in medical, and therapeutic experiments, and are employed as gestational wombs in assisted reproductive technologies (ART). Under such conditions, resistant feminist discourses of the “body” emerge as an explicitly biopolitical practice.3 subRosa is a cyberfeminist collective of cultural producers whose practice creates dis- course and experiential knowledge about the intersections of information and biotechnolo- gies in women’s lives, work, and bodies. Since the year 2000, subRosa has produced a variety of performances, participatory events, installations, publications, and Web sites as (cyber)feminist responses to key issues in bio- and digital technologies.

Interview ANN WILSON: [In progress] "—happened as if it didn't come out of himself and his fixation but merged. It came to itself and is for this moment without him or her, not brought about by him or her but is itself and in this sudden seeing of itself, we make the final choice. What if it has come to be without external to us and what we read it to be then and heighten it toward that reading? If we were to leave it alone at this point of itself, our eyes aging would no longer be able to see it. External and forget the internal ordering that brought it about and without the final decision of what that ordering was about and our emphasis of it, other eyes would miss the chosen point and feel the lack of emphasis.

  • “My Personal Is Not Political?” a Dialogue on Art, Feminism and Pedagogy
    Liminalities: A Journal of Performance Studies Vol. 5, No. 2, July 2009 “My Personal Is Not Political?” A Dialogue on Art, Feminism and Pedagogy Irina Aristarkhova and Faith Wilding This is a dialogue between two scholars who discuss art, feminism, and pedagogy. While Irina Aristarkhova proposes “active distancing” and “strategic withdrawal of personal politics” as two performative strategies to deal with various stereotypes of women's art among students, Faith Wilding responds with an overview of art school’s curricular within a wider context of Feminist Art Movement and the radical questioning of art and pedagogy that the movement represents Using a concrete situation of teaching a women’s art class within an art school environment, this dialogue between Faith Wilding and Irina Aristakhova analyzes the challenges that such teaching represents within a wider cultural and historical context of women, art, and feminist performance pedagogy. Faith Wilding has been a prominent figure in the feminist art movement from the early 1970s, as a member of the California Arts Institute’s Feminist Art Program, Womanhouse, and in the recent decade, a member of the SubRosa, a cyberfeminist art collective. Irina Aristarkhova, is coming from a different history to this conversation: generationally, politically and theoretically, she faces her position as being an outsider to these mostly North American and, to a lesser extent, Western European developments. The authors see their on-going dialogue of different experiences and ideas within feminism(s) as an opportunity to share strategies and knowledges towards a common goal of sustaining heterogeneity in a pedagogical setting. First, this conversation focuses on the performance of feminist pedagogy in relation to women’s art.

  • Untranslatability and the Chorus in Virginia Woolf and H.D
    Untranslatability and the Chorus in Virginia Woolf and H.D. Within reception studies, there has been a growing interest in modernist responses to Hellenism (Hooley 2001; Rosenblitt 2016; Prins 2017; Worman 2018). Critical to the transmission and adaptation of Greek texts during this period were women of classical letters. What drew them to the translation and adaptation of the ancient Greek language was, uniquely, the promise of “an encounter with something untranslatable” (Prins 2017: 31). Focusing on the work of Virginia Woolf and H.D. (Hilda Doolittle), this paper argues that the experience of linguistic estrangement encountered in the act of translating Greek specifically involved the tragic chorus. The resistance of the choral form to translation offered Woolf and H.D. the freedom to adapt it to their own literary experiments, allowing them to fashion a new feminist aesthetic that challenged the masculine classical heritage. Woolf and H.D. derived their ideas of the Greek chorus from two main sources: the work of the first British female classicist, Jane Ellen Harrison, and contemporary modernist translation theory. Woolf was a personal acquaintance of Harrison and attended her public lectures (Mills 2014: 8), while H.D. knew of her ideas indirectly through Gilbert Murray (Gregory 1997: 123-4). They drew on Harrison’s fascination with the chorus as a “queer anomaly” that nonetheless functioned as “the centre and kernel and starting-point of the drama” (Harrison 1913: 123). Modernist poets like Ezra Pound and Richard Aldington also had a strong interest in the choral ode, erroneously viewing it as a form of vers libre because of its absence of rhyme, spare language, traditional meters, and short lines (Gregory 1997: 140; Prins 2017: 180-201).

Swarthmore Intercollegiate Athletics'72 A//) 'f<3 "fa //9 ^ Is it winning or how you play the game that counts? “The Cultural Revolution has penetrated the last stronghold of the American myth— the locker room. Young athletes, having scaled new levels of consciousness, now challenge a long-standing article of faith— the belief that competition has intrinsic value. They enter sports in search of particular esthetic experience, essentially personal in nature. They no longer accept the authoritarian structure of sports, nor do they accept the supreme emphasis on winning.” —Bruce C. Ogilvie and Thomas A. Tutko, Psychology Today, October, 1971 No one uses the word “ revolution” to describe intercollegiate athletics at Swarthmore today. But everybody— coaches, athletes, interested faculty and administrators— agrees they are different. “Our locker room became revolutionary a long time ago,” says Professor Thomas Blackburn, familiar with Swarthmore athletics for some ten years. “What is most different 1 Swarthmore Intercollegiate Athletics ’72 today,” he says, “ is that you find few people who are 4 Today's Athletes Tell Why willing to sit out a couple of years on the second team.
