  • Queer Orientation in Twentieth-Century American Literature
    QUEER ORIENTATION IN TWENTIETH-CENTURY AMERICAN LITERATURE By MICHAEL G. PARKER Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of English CASE WESTERN RESERVE UNIVERSITY August 2016 ii CASE WESTERN RESERVE UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF GRADUATE STUDIES We hereby approve the dissertation of Michael Parker candidate for the degree of Doctorate Committee Chair T. Kenny Fountain Committee Member Michael Clune Committee Member Mary Grimm Committee Member Laura Hengehold Date of Defense 12 May 2016 *We also certify that written approval has been obtained for any proprietary material contained therein. iii Acknowledgements This dissertation is the culmination of seven years of idea generation and refinement regarding queer orientation. The project began during my first semester of graduate school when I wrote a seminar paper on the orientation of characters in Toni Morrison’s The Bluest Eye and Jazz toward their Southern homes after The Great Migration. Additional threads of this project can be found in papers I wrote about Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Moby Dick, and Alain Locke’s “The New Negro.” I am deeply grateful for those teachers who fostered my approach to literature by looking to orientation, including Thrity Umrigar and Marilyn Mobley. I consider myself lucky to have worked with and under a series of mentors who shaped this dissertation project directly. I want to thank Mary Grimm for her spirited discussions of the works of literature I selected and for directing me to include one work in particular. I am grateful for the experience and teaching of Michael Clune whose perspective on literature inspired much of my critical approach, specifically his emphasis on literature as doing something and as being worthy of close inspection.

This theme is evident and appears to possess a link with male dysfunction in several of Toni Morrison’s texts. Lack of maternal accountability has long served as a symptom of female mental instability as imposed by patriarchal thought. Mothers who have neglected or harmed their young across cultures and time periods have been forcibly branded with the mark of madness. Female characters in five of Morrison’s novels bear a striking resemblance to the female archetypes of ancient Greece.

  • “THERE WILL BE TIME”: HEROISM, TEMPORALITY, and the SEARCH for OPPORTUNITY in MODERN LITERATURE by JOSEPH RUSSELL LEASE (Und
    “THERE WILL BE TIME”: HEROISM, TEMPORALITY, AND THE SEARCH FOR OPPORTUNITY IN MODERN LITERATURE by JOSEPH RUSSELL LEASE (Under the Direction of Jed Rasula) ABSTRACT This dissertation focuses on the convergence of heroism and temporality in Modernist literature. Its purpose is to illuminate both the ways in which changes in the perception of time transformed the portrayal of potential hero figures and, more importantly, how a viable alternative to the frequently assumed “death” of the hero within that period went largely unnoticed. The hero figure (who does the “right” thing, for the “right” reason, at the “right” time) is largely missing from literature of the time period because one or more of the elements of the formula is not met, and there are particular challenges during the decades in question to finding the “right” time to act due to an imbalance in Western cultural perceptions of temporality that favored an exclusively quantitative model over one that balanced both quantitative and qualitative aspects, such as that favored by the Greeks and demonstrated through the concepts of chronos and kairos. I highlight the consequences of the Modernist, chronocentric temporal model by examining different works that illustrate the difficulties of creating and presenting heroes in a world in which the timing of heroic action is nearly impossible to get right. Moreover, the selected authors’ disparate backgrounds and literary interests underscore that the question of heroic viability was of enough concern to appear frequently and across a broad spectrum of Western literature during the period in question. Specific examples include an analysis of four novels by Joseph Conrad that tracks his portrayals of the nature of heroism in the modern world; an examination of two specific forms of kairic failure—akairic desire and akairic environment, both of which permeate Modernism—found within works by T.

  • Time and the Vanities of Existence in Antun Šoljan's Fiction
    Slovo. Journal of Slavic Languages, Literatures and Cultures ISSN 2001–7395 No. 55, 2014, pp. 60–76 Time and the Vanities of Existence in Antun Šoljan’s Fiction Denis Crnković Russian & Eastern European Studies, Gustavus Adolphus College [email protected] Abstract This paper explores the theme of hope and hopelessness in a selection of Antun Šoljan’s stories and novels and how the author creates in his heroes an interior atmosphere of inquiry that is paradoxically laden with uncertainty and the human instinct to move forward. A “parabolic moralist” (as Davor Kapetanić has called him), Šoljan depicts the world as more than a simple continuity of events, political, personal, private or public. His major concern is to make sense of man’s existence in a universe that confronts him with both linear time and a repetitive or circular series of events. Examining the apparent contradictions of linear vs. circular existence, the author often places his characters “out of time” and analyzes any given life by finding its important events, actions and desires. While Šoljan’s heroes often conclude that temporal things are of little lasting value, he leaves his philosophically and psychologically battered heroes with at least a small possibility of hope. Antun Šoljan, the undisputed voice of conscience in Yugoslav and Croatian literature for four decades after World War II, was a tireless writer of essays, plays, translations, novels and short stories. Because of its preoccupation with human existence in the midst of an oppressive political and social regime, his fiction is most often associated with that of the great existentialist writers of the mid-twentieth century.
