  • 'All Wemen in Thar Degree Shuld to Thar Men Subiectit Be': the Controversial Court Career of Elisabeth Parr, Marchioness Of
    ‘All wemen in thar degree shuld to thar men subiectit be’: The controversial court career of Elisabeth Parr, marchioness of Northampton, c. 1547-1565 Helen Joanne Graham-Matheson, BA, MA. Thesis submitted to UCL for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 1 Declaration I, Helen Joanne Graham-Matheson confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 2 Abstract This thesis reconstructs and analyses the life and agency of Elisabeth Parr, marchioness of Northampton (1526-1565), with the aim of increasing understanding of women’s networks of influence and political engagement at the mid-Tudor courts, c. 1547- 1565. Analysis of Elisabeth’s life highlights that in the absence of a Queen consort the noblewomen of the Edwardian court maintained and utilized access to those in power and those with political significance and authority. During the reign of Mary Tudor, Elisabeth worked with her natal family to undermine Mary’s Queenship and support Elizabeth Tudor, particularly by providing her with foreign intelligence. At the Elizabethan court Elisabeth regained her title (lost under Mary I) and occupied a position as one of the Queen’s most trusted confidantes and influential associates. Her agency merited attention from ambassadors and noblemen as well as from the Emperor Maximilian and King Erik of Sweden, due to the significant role she played in several major contemporary events, such as Elizabeth’s early marriage negotiations. This research is interdisciplinary, incorporating early modern social, political and cultural historiographies, gender studies, social anthropology, sociology and the study of early modern literature.

The introduction ends with a census of early modern women’s plays in modern performance. This Issues in Review focuses on the performance of early modern plays created by women theatre makers, that is, women who wrote, translated, published, commissioned and, in all probability, produced and performed in plays. But these plays have been corseted and closeted by critics — some of them feminist — who have claimed access to the theatre makers’ inten- tions and have asserted, despite no documentary evidence, that these plays were not intended to be performed. In particular these plays have been half strangled by critics’ use of the anachronistic and inappropriate nineteenth- century term ‘closet drama’. The methodology used here to uncloset and uncorset three of these plays — Lady Jane Lumley’s Iphigenia in Aulis, Eliza- beth Cary’s The Tragedy of Mariam, and the Mary Sidney Herbert commis- sioned Cleopatra by Samuel Daniel — is to explore them by means of the Elizabeth Schafer ([email protected]) is professor of drama and theatre studies at Royal Holloway, University of London. 125 126 Issues in Review collective, creative, and community-based acts of criticism that take place when the plays are performed today.

  • Lycra, Legs, and Legitimacy: Performances of Feminine Power in Twentieth Century American Popular Culture
    LYCRA, LEGS, AND LEGITIMACY: PERFORMANCES OF FEMININE POWER IN TWENTIETH CENTURY AMERICAN POPULAR CULTURE Quincy Thomas A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2018 Committee: Jonathan Chambers, Advisor Francisco Cabanillas, Graduate Faculty Representative Bradford Clark Lesa Lockford © 2018 Quincy Thomas All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jonathan Chambers, Advisor As a child, when I consumed fictional narratives that centered on strong female characters, all I noticed was the enviable power that they exhibited. From my point of view, every performance by a powerful character like Wonder Woman, Daisy Duke, or Princess Leia, served to highlight her drive, ability, and intellect in a wholly uncomplicated way. What I did not notice then was the often-problematic performances of female power that accompanied those narratives. As a performance studies and theatre scholar, with a decades’ old love of all things popular culture, I began to ponder the troubling question: Why are there so many popular narratives focused on female characters who are, on a surface level, portrayed as bastions of strength, that fall woefully short of being true representations of empowerment when subjected to close analysis? In an endeavor to answer this question, in this dissertation I examine what I contend are some of the paradoxical performances of female heroism, womanhood, and feminine aggression from the 1960s to the 1990s. To facilitate this investigation, I engage in close readings of several key aesthetic and cultural texts from these decades. While the Wonder Woman comic book universe serves as the centerpiece of this study, I also consider troublesome performances and representations of female power in the television shows Bewitched, I Dream of Jeannie, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer, the film Grease, the stage musical Les Misérables, and the video game Tomb Raider.

A Dissertation in Anthropology by Martin Hughes Welker 2018 Martin Hughes Welker Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2018 The dissertation of Martin Hughes Welker was reviewed and approved* by the following: Sarah B. McClure Associate Professor of Anthropology Dissertation Advisor Chair of Committee Douglas J. Kennett Professor of Anthropology Head of the Department of Anthropology Douglass W. Bird Associate Professor of Anthropology Ellen Stroud Associate Professor of History *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT The domestication of animal species was followed by the development of breeds, or distinct populations that are both homogenous in appearance and differentiable from others of the same species (Clutton-Brock 2012). Breeds emerge through a combination of natural and artificial selection acting upon animal species in close association with human populations. In many cases (e.g., Clydesdale horses, Black Angus cattle, Border Collies) breed development can reflect the role particular populations play within human communities. As a result, understanding when, where, and how morphologically distinct populations of domesticates emerge has significant potential for furthering our understanding of human-animal relationships and interaction. Identifying and understanding the domestication process, the roles of domestic plant and animal species in agricultural and forager societies, and the ecological impacts of domesticates on human societies remain among archaeology’s “Grand Challenges” (Kintigh et al.
