    UC Irvine FlashPoints Title The New Woman: Literary Modernism, Queer Theory, and the Trans Feminine Allegory Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/11z5g0mz ISBN 978081013 5550 Author Heaney, Emma Publication Date 2017-08-01 Peer reviewed eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California The New Woman The FlashPoints series is devoted to books that consider literature beyond strictly national and disciplinary frameworks, and that are distinguished both by their historical grounding and by their theoretical and conceptual strength. Our books engage theory without losing touch with history and work historically without falling into uncritical positivism. FlashPoints aims for a broad audience within the humanities and the social sciences concerned with moments of cultural emergence and transformation. In a Benjaminian mode, FlashPoints is interested in how liter- ature contributes to forming new constellations of culture and history and in how such formations function critically and politically in the present. Series titles are available online at http://escholarship.org/uc/fl ashpoints. series editors: Ali Behdad (Comparative Literature and English, UCLA), Edi- tor Emeritus; Judith Butler (Rhetoric and Comparative Literature, UC Berkeley), Editor Emerita; Michelle Clayton (Hispanic Studies and Comparative Literature, Brown University); Edward Dimendberg (Film and Media Studies, Visual Studies, and European Languages and Studies, UC Irvine), Founding Editor; Catherine Gallagher (English, UC Berkeley), Editor Emerita; Nouri Gana (Comparative Lit- erature and Near Eastern Languages and Cultures, UCLA); Susan Gillman (Lit- erature, UC Santa Cruz), Coordinator; Jody Greene (Literature, UC Santa Cruz); Richard Terdiman (Literature, UC Santa Cruz), Founding Editor A complete list of titles begins on p.

    BALTICON 49 POCKET PROGRAM May 22-25, 2015 Cover Art: “Dark Knight” © 2015 by Ruth Sanderson Note to Parents Anime Parents, please be advised that there are a limited number of movies in the Anime Program which are appropriate for children under 12. Please take note of the ratings listed next to the movies. A document explaining the ratings will be posted on the Anime Room Door. It also appears in the BSFAN. Parents are strongly encouraged to take these ratings as a guide for what might or might not be inappropriate for their children to watch. In general, children under 14 should not be in the Anime Room between 10 PM and 5 AM, but everything in the middle of the day should be ok for ages 14 and up. Children under 13 should be accompanied by a parent or guardian. We recommend that parents of teens sit and view a portion of an “MA” rated movie to decide if it is something they want their teen to view. Film Festival All of the entries being screened in the film festival up to 9:30 PM are what the selection committee estimated would be considered G or PG rated. Entries screening after 9:40 PM range from estimated G to R rated, thus some movies screening after 9:40 PM may not be appropriate for children under 17 who are not accompanied by a parent or guardian.

SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION 71 APPENDIX 74 BIBLIOGRAPHY 81 CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION Prior to current publishing practices, an all-white publishing world dictated what would and would not go into print. Some publishers refused to read a manuscript from a black author or to welcome him for an interview (stereotyped belief that blacks did not excel in the literary arts). However, some publishers were interested in stories about blacks for the entertainment of white children, hence these stories were written by white authors and the stories were designed to ridicule blacks in content and illustration. Prior to 1965, black authors had little encourage ment from publishers to write stories about the black experience. White publishers were not interested in accepting books by black authors because they thought the markets were not open for such books and the viewpoints held by black authors were of no interest to them.1 As early as the 1930's, three black authors: Langston Hughes, Arna Bontemp, and Countee Cullen published books about black children; however, the majority of black ■^-Carole Parks, "Goodbye Black Sambo," Ebony (November, 1972), 62.
