  • Dangerously Free: Outlaws and Nation-Making in Literature of the Indian Territory
    DANGEROUSLY FREE: OUTLAWS AND NATION-MAKING IN LITERATURE OF THE INDIAN TERRITORY by Jenna Hunnef A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of English University of Toronto © Copyright by Jenna Hunnef 2016 Dangerously Free: Outlaws and Nation-Making in Literature of the Indian Territory Jenna Hunnef Doctor of Philosophy Department of English University of Toronto 2016 Abstract In this dissertation, I examine how literary representations of outlaws and outlawry have contributed to the shaping of national identity in the United States. I analyze a series of texts set in the former Indian Territory (now part of the state of Oklahoma) for traces of what I call “outlaw rhetorics,” that is, the political expression in literature of marginalized realities and competing visions of nationhood. Outlaw rhetorics elicit new ways to think the nation differently—to imagine the nation otherwise; as such, I demonstrate that outlaw narratives are as capable of challenging the nation’s claims to territorial or imaginative title as they are of asserting them. Borrowing from Abenaki scholar Lisa Brooks’s definition of “nation” as “the multifaceted, lived experience of families who gather in particular places,” this dissertation draws an analogous relationship between outlaws and domestic spaces wherein they are both considered simultaneously exempt from and constitutive of civic life. In the same way that the outlaw’s alternately celebrated and marginal status endows him or her with the power to support and eschew the stories a nation tells about itself, so the liminality and centrality of domestic life have proven effective as a means of consolidating and dissenting from the status quo of the nation-state.

  • Allen Rostron, the Law and Order Theme in Political and Popular Culture
    OCULREV Fall 2012 Rostron 323-395 (Do Not Delete) 12/17/2012 10:59 AM OKLAHOMA CITY UNIVERSITY LAW REVIEW VOLUME 37 FALL 2012 NUMBER 3 ARTICLES THE LAW AND ORDER THEME IN POLITICAL AND POPULAR CULTURE Allen Rostron I. INTRODUCTION “Law and order” became a potent theme in American politics in the 1960s. With that simple phrase, politicians evoked a litany of troubles plaguing the country, from street crime to racial unrest, urban riots, and unruly student protests. Calling for law and order became a shorthand way of expressing contempt for everything that was wrong with the modern permissive society and calling for a return to the discipline and values of the past. The law and order rallying cry also signified intense opposition to the Supreme Court’s expansion of the constitutional rights of accused criminals. In the eyes of law and order conservatives, judges needed to stop coddling criminals and letting them go free on legal technicalities. In 1968, Richard Nixon made himself the law and order candidate and won the White House, and his administration continued to trumpet the law and order theme and blame weak-kneed liberals, The William R.

  • True "Grit" and "True Grit"
    True "Grit" and "True Grit" JOHN DITSKY HE relatively recent success of the film version of Charles Portis's True Grit — with John Wayne play- ing its hero, Rooster Cogburn — has restored to familiar usage the term "grit." Wayne's performance, in which self-parody is indistinguishable from the serious portrayal of frontier manliness, challenges certain premises Americans hold about themselves. For the search for the meaning and the presence of true "grit" in the world of the American West ultimately leads to a re-examination of the roles which men and women were in effect asked to play by the conflicting norms of their society and their environment — were asked to play, that is, and also are asked to play, though the conditions of contemporary life differ markedly (at least in theory) from those of the legendary Wild West. In The Return of the Vanishing American (1968), Leslie Fiedler discusses the several myths born of frontier ex• perience which inform a substantial body of current Am• erican literature. Not a few of these story-patterns repre• sent reactions to the frontier environment that are them• selves part of a fictional American "character," particularly when the effects of frontier life on the American woman are considered. Fiedler identifies a Hannah Duston "Basic Myth" — that of the self-sufficient frontierswoman who survives by assuming the male role, often surpassing male skills in the part: But women insist that their essential fable be not ob• scured by . irrelevant male concerns, that the story remain true to their central vision of their lot and be projected in terms of their own sort of heroine: a strong TRUE "GRIT" AND "TRUE GRIT" 19 but immensely ordinary woman — preferably a mother — who is confronted by a male antagonist and, finding no male champion, must deliver herself.

Since then the brothers have experienced considerable commercial and critical success with their 16 films, garnering six Academy Awards wins and more than 30 nominations. Attempts at naming a definitive style or genre or subject matter is a difficult undertaking when it comes to the Coen canon, and yet it seems to be this consistent unpredictability that continues to attract critics and audiences alike. Whatever the styles or genres they are working within or the subject matter of their story, though, the brothers’ interest in telling stories in America, about Americans is always clear.

  • SPEECH NARCISSISM Terri R. Day* and Danielle Weatherby** Abstract
    SPEECH NARCISSISM Terri R. Day* and Danielle Weatherby** Abstract From its embryonic stage during the civil rights era to its modern-day presence on college campuses, the political correctness movement has undergone an extreme metamorphosis. In the university setting, it was originally intended to welcome diverse views by encouraging minority students to feel part of the learning environment and to contribute to the “marketplace of ideas.” Recently, however, as students more frequently demand trigger warnings and safe spaces in response to speech that they deem personally offensive, the use of political correctness measures on college campuses has had the unintended consequence of chilling speech. Contrary to longstanding First Amendment principles, college campuses are becoming environments in which the most vulnerable among the student population can exercise a “heckler’s veto,” silencing speech that is subjectively offensive to the most sensitive students. During the 2016 presidential election, Trump supporters praised his unfiltered campaign rhetoric and divisive Tweets while others condemned them, criticizing his unscripted approach as offensive in the name of politica l correctness. The contrast between Trump supporters’ chants of “lock her up” at rallies and college students’ demands for safe spaces and trigger warnings is noteworthy; these diverse groups fall at the opposite ends of a speech-tolerance spectrum. On the one end of the spectrum, political correctness is shunned; on the other end, it is demanded. In debunking the purported justifications for the use of extreme political correctness measures on college campuses, this Article adds to the ongoing discussion of the changing landscape of privately imposed speech rules for public discourse and posits that both ends of the speech- tolerance spectrum reflect a form of speech narcissism.

Biographical criticism is the practice of analyzing a literary work through the lens of an author’s experience. In this lesson, explore the author’s life to understand the novel more fully. 1 True Grit is not in any sense an autobiographical work. Its events take Lesson One place more than half a century before the author’s birth, and none of its characters or situations are drawn from his own experience. Yet, like Mattie FOCUS: Ross, the novel’s narrator and protagonist, Charles Portis is from Arkansas, where he has spent his entire life, except for his military service during Biography the Korean War and several years working as a journalist in New York City. Much of his writing, both fiction and journalism, is informed by his identification with his native South, as is shown in Mattie’s political views and the reminiscences of the Civil War by Rooster Cogburn and LaBoeuf. ??
