    ©2016 Brian John Pietras ALL RIGHTS RESERVED EVANDER’S MOTHER: GENDER, ANTIQUITY, AND AUTHORSHIP IN EARLY MODERN ENGLAND by BRIAN JOHN PIETRAS A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School – New Brunswick Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Literatures in English Jacqueline T. Miller And approved by ________________________ ________________________ ________________________ ________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey October 2016 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Evander’s Mother: Gender, Antiquity, and Authorship in Early Modern England By BRIAN JOHN PIETRAS Dissertation Director: Jacqueline T. Miller This dissertation traces how the Renaissance rediscovery of ancient women writers led to the emergence of new theories and practices of English vernacular authorship. In the sixteenth century, Greco-Roman women writers became famous for writings that were largely fragmentary, of dubious origin, or entirely lost. Indeed, a number of these purported female authors—such as Carmentis, the mother of Evander in the Aeneid— were purely legendary. My dissertation argues, however, that this lack of surviving texts was precisely what made ancient women so useful to early moderns. Vested with the prestige of classical antiquity but untethered from any concrete body of writing, ancient female authors functioned as what I call a “canon without a corpus” in Renaissance England. The first three chapters of Evander’s Mother show how sixteenth-century male writers appropriated figures from this now-forgotten female canon to decisively reshape inherited models of authorship: how Thomas Elyot employed the rebellious historian Zenobia to defy the humanist emphasis on classical imitation; how John Donne and John Fletcher experimented with non-Petrarchan forms of love lyric through fantasies of Sappho; and how William Shakespeare and Edmund Spenser reworked the role of the divinely inspired poet by evoking legendary female prophets known as the sibyls.

  • Louis Riel, Justice, and Mtis Self-Identification: Literary Politics
    Robin White Goldsmiths College, University of London Thesis for the Degree of Ph.D., 2014 Louis Riel, Justice, and Métis Self-Identification: Literary Politics for Survival in the Evolution of Canadian Nationhood 1 I, Robin White, declare this thesis to be entirely my own original work. 2 Abstract of Thesis This thesis explores Métis identity in the context of the ambiguous nature of the Canadian national identity, and in particular, how the Louis Riel ‘Rebellions’ of 1869- 70 and 1885, continue to resonate in contemporary Métis literature. While it is the case that the Métis have self-identified within their own communities since the seventeenth century, it is also the case that the legal definition and recognition of the Métis were not realized until 1982. Indeed, the fine points of law in the Canadian Constitution are still in dispute, not least because the Métis were not included in the initial signing of treaties with the Dominion of Canada. For the purposes of this thesis, it is first necessary to engage in a thorough examination of historical accounts of the resistance of the Métis against expansionist encroachment of the Dominion of Canada in the Northwest in order to trace the source and evolution of contemporary Métis literature. I consider the ways in which the literary texts of Métis authors confront racial and cultural prejudice that are the direct result of Constitutional law, charters of rights, legislation in the judicial system, and the eleven Confederation numbered treaties, drafted before, during and after the Riel Resistances. The introductory and first chapters include contemporary Métis historical and legal academic analyses of the ‘Rebellions’ and an exploration of how the Government of Canada’s response in 1885 to the Métis uprising continues to inform its legal positions concerning Métis land rights and self-identification, while striving to maintain an international reputation as politically, and ethically, just.

  • Media Across the African Diaspora: Content, Audiences, and Global
    Media Across the African Diaspora This volume gathers scholarship from varying disciplinary perspectives to explore media owned or created by members of the African diaspora, examine its relationship with diasporic audiences, and consider its im- pact on mainstream culture in general. Contributors highlight creations and contributions of people of the African diaspora, the interconnections of Black American and African-centered media, and the experiences of audiences and users across the African diaspora, positioning members of the Black and African Diaspora as subjects of their own narratives, ac- tive participants and creators. In so doing, this volume addresses issues of identity, culture, audiences, and global influence. Omotayo O. Banjo is an Associate Professor in the Department of Com- munication at the University of Cincinnati, USA. She focuses on rep- resentation and audience responses to racial and cultural media. Her work has been published in Journal of Broadcasting and Electronic Media, Communication Theory, Journalism and Mass Communica- tion Quarterly, Journal of Media and Religion, and Race and Social Problems. She most recently coedited a volume on the topics of race, ethnicity, and faith called Contemporary Christian Culture: Messages, Missions, and Dilemmas.

It argues that these diverse expressions of Christian faith-fuelled abundance can be understood as a movement, for they stem from a cohesive set of shared understandings. First, the movement centered on Faith. It conceived of faith as an “activator,” a power given to believers that bound and loosed spiritual forces and turned the spoken word into reality. Second and third respectively, the movement depicted faith as palpably demonstrated in wealth and health. It could be measured in both in the wallet—one’s personal wealth—and in the body—one’s personal health—making material reality the measure of the success of immaterial faith.
