Rich�d Deakin r Presented as part of the requirement forthe award of the MA Degree in Cultural, Literary, andHistorical Studies within the Postgraduate Modular Scheme at Cheltenham and Gloucester College of Higher Education June 1999 11 DECLARATIONS This.Dissertation is the product of my own work and is. not the result of anything done in collaboration. I agreethat this. Dissertationmay be available forreference and photocopying,. at the discretion of the College. Richard Deakin 111 ABSTRACT Whateverperspective one takes, contradictions in the relationship between the capital and the provinces have always been evident to some extent, and the British undergroundpress of the late 1960s and early 1970s is no exception. The introductoryfirst chapter will definethe meaning of the term 'underground' in this context, and outline some of thesources used and the methodologies employed. Chapter Two will show how the British underground press developed froman alternative coterie of writers, poets, and artists - often sympathisers of the Campaign forNuclear Disarmament movement. It will also show how having developed from roots that were arguably provincial the undergroundadopted London as its base. The third chapter will take a more detailed look at the background of some London and provincial underground publications andwill attempt to see what extent the London undergroundpress portrayed the provinces, and vice-versa. In Chapter Four actual aspects of lifein urbanand rural settings, such as communes, squats, and pop festivals,will be examined in relation to the adoption of these lifestylesby the wider counterculture and how they were adapted to particular environments as part of an envisioned alternativesociety.

Boston College The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Department of Sociology NEW BOSTON MARRIAGES: NEWS REPRESENTATIONS, RESPECTABILITY, AND THE POLITICS OF SAME-SEX MARRIAGE a dissertation by JEFFREY A. LANGSTRAAT Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy May, 2009 © copyright by JEFFREY ALAN LANGSTRAAT 2009 ABSTRACT In 2006, Mariane Valverde announced the birth of what she called, “a new type in the history of sexuality” (155), the Respectable Same-Sex Couple. This work analyzes newspaper coverage of same-sex couples during the Massachusetts campaign for marriage equality to explore the content of and contours around that new socio-sexual category. The processes involved in the incorporation of lesbians and gay men into the governing relations of American society are used to explain the development of this type, and its replacement of the pathological Homosexual. The manufacture of respectability by movement activists is explored via the selection of “public face couples” as a framing strategy that links the lives of these couples to marriage itself and the hardships they suffer due to their inability to marry. The respectability of these couples and their incorporation as economic citizens is also linked to representations of professional status, upward mobility, economic success, and the creation of identity-based markets through entrepreneurial and consumptive practices.

At the newspaper's height, circulation was approximatly 18,000 copies. The original editorial collective included Denis Lemon (editor), Martin Corbett - who later was an active member of ACT UP, David Seligman, a founder member of the London Gay Switchboard collective, Ian Dunn of the Scottish Minorities Group, Glenys Parry (national chair of CHE), Suki J. Pitcher, and Doug Pollard, who later went on to launch the weekly gay newspaper, Gay Week (affectionately known as Gweek). Amongst Gay News' early "Special Friends" were Graham Chapman of Monty Python's Flying Circus, his partner David Sherlock, and Antony Grey, secretary of the UK Homosexual Law Reform Society from 1962 to 1970. Gay News was the response to a nationwide demand by lesbians and gay men for news of the burgeoning liberation movement. The paper played a pivotal role in the struggle for gay rights in the 1970s in the UK. It was described by Alison Hennegan (who joined the newspaper as Assistant Features Editor and Literary Editor in June 1977) as the movement's "debating chamber".

  • How David Bowie ‘Unlocked Everybody’S Inner Queen’ in Spite of the Music Press
    ‘Oh You Pretty Thing!’: How David Bowie ‘Unlocked Everybody’s Inner Queen’ in Spite of the Music Press. This article focuses on the context, reportage and responses to David Bowie coming-out in the music press in 1972. By describing himself as ‘bisexual’ in a Melody Maker interview, Bowie became the first prominent male British pop star to label himself as non-heterosexual in the mass media.i He introduced a youth-oriented but widely accessible discussion of sexuality. The conversation explored the 1967 Sexual Offences Act’s complicated legacy and raised the questions of whether, even after decriminalisation, responses to queer people were ‘permissive’ and if the late-1960s and early-1970s were a period of sexual liberation. The Act allowed the press to discuss homosexuality in more detail and from varied perspectives, including those who identified as queer or homosexual.ii However, as Frank Mort argued, it cast homosexuality as a tolerable ‘private vice’ not part of public life.iii The press constructed and represented British sexual mores and negotiated a homosexual subject from this new social and legal context: through Bowie, music papers contributed to a broader conversation with a unique angle due to their conditions of production and understandings of their audience.iv The opportunity for debate was arguably ‘permissive’ but the statements made were typically conservative – particularly perceptions of queer people, their lives and identities. The article will first explain the context and antecedents of these conversations. Then it demonstrates how the music press, and subsequently the popular daily press, narrated Bowie’s sexuality, and later that of other performers, to satisfy a putatively heterosexual marketplace.
