  • Monkey See, Monkey Do: Orientalism in Curious George
    Undergraduate Journal of Humanistic Studies Spring 2015 Vol. I • • Monkey See, Monkey Do: Orientalism in Curious George Sam Chao Carleton College November 17, 2014 e tend to approach children’s books as if they were simple or straightforward–as if they had Wonly one moral voice and not a chorus. As Mikhail Bakhtin tells us, “Each word tastes of the context and contexts in which it has lived its socially charged life; all words and forms are populated by intentions” (293). To compress any work into a single, overt or intended “moral” would be a fallacy. Words do not carry fixed meanings; texts do not have fixed interpretations. Bakhtin also points to the “socially charged” nature of words–the “taste of their context and contexts”–calling to mind other critics who have recognized this interface of culture and text. One such critic is Stephen Greenblatt, who says, . if an exploration of a particular culture will lead to a heightened understanding of a work of literature produced within that culture, so too a careful reading of a work of literature will lead to a heightened understanding of the culture within which it was produced. (227) Greenblatt describes how one flavor can be extracted from the “taste” of a text–one context extracted from the layers of contexts–allowing us to examine a culture specific to a time and place. Curious George is a canonized text in American children’s literature: the beloved monkey protagonist of the story has become an icon of childhood. Though read by many, Curious George is not a work approached with scholarly gravity.

Likewise, Lemmy seemed too much a part of rock’s scenery to leave us so soon. As we went to press with this issue, we also learned the sad news that Eagles co-founder Glenn Frey had passed (look out for a full tribute next month), making this winter the worst in memory for losing legends. The only very slight consolation for all this is that it prompted us to listen again to the music that made them household names. In the case of Bowie, it was a reminder of the astonishing breadth and ambition of his music-making (see cover feature, p76). Rightly regarded as classic now, Bowie’s music must have been sensational when he was starting out – and I’m sure not everyone ‘got it’ at the time. Passing years have a habit of making the new and strange in music feel comfortably familiar, and finally classic. That thought has been a reminder of the importance of seeking out uncommon sounds, and not just sticking to your comfort zone of old favourites.
