TLLB Loy, The Last Lunar Baedeker iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I must first and foremost thank the Department of Comparative Literature, both for its continued support of this project and the tremendous sense of community that it has provided to me during my time at UC Irvine. I also wish to thank the Critical Theory Emphasis, the Graduate Feminist Emphasis, and the Critical Theory Institute for the exposure they have given me to exciting interdisciplinary scholarship at Irvine. The International Center for Writing and Translation under Director Ngugi wa’Thiongo provided me with a generous grant in 2008 to conduct archival research in Vienna and Berlin, work that now undergirds the second chapter of this project. My especial appreciation goes to the University of California Interdisciplinary Psychoanalytic Consortium for awarding me the Hayman Dissertation Fellowship in 2013 and including me, year after year, in their annual meeting at Lake Arrowhead. The discussions and lectures at Arrowhead, along with the sustained engagement of my work by my UCIPC friends like John Cash, Bettina Soestwohner, and Eric Anders, have shaped this dissertation immensely, and I am truly grateful to have been included in that warm circle of scholars and clinicians. The Byron Davis Fellowship and the Howard Babb Memorial Fellowship afforded me time and space to write this dissertation, and I was able to disseminate my work through travel grants from the UCI School of Humanities and the Associated Graduate Student organization. My advisor Gabriele M. Schwab opened the world of psychoanalysis to me, and she has been unwaveringly supportive of my scholarly and professional endeavors. Her work is a vital testament to what creative interdisciplinary theory ought to be, especially as it helps us to understand difficult histories and tenuous futures. I cannot imagine this project without the mentorship of Dina Al-Kassim, who first directed me to look long and hard at these “jerks.” She has pushed me to be a better, more inventive scholar and the impact of her own brilliant scholarship is surely evident in these pages. Rei Terada asks the right questions of my work, even if it takes me a few months to figure out why. She teaches all of us how to see things differently, how to find ourselves changed by that view, and how to dwell in an oft- disappointing world with integrity and care for others. Eyal Amiran made me take the project of becoming a modernist scholar seriously through his canny critiques of this project, and his above-and-beyond professional guidance has been invaluable. In seminars and talks over tea, Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak demanded I dig deeply into texts and think past psychoanalytic morphology in analogic terms, and the methodology of this project is highly informed by those conversations. Her mentorship and friendship over the years I worked as her research assistant altered more than just my research, and she remains my definition of what it means to be both a rigorous academic and an ethical human being. There are many other teachers who have mentored me far beyond the classroom, among them Alvin Dufford, Greg Davis, Sharon Friedman, Mark Poster, and Étienne Balibar, and it is my sincere hope to become the kind of compassionate educator to my own students that these individuals were to me. My appreciation goes to Arielle Read, Lynh Tran-Rood, Mary Underwood, and Bindya Balagia for all they do and have done to keep the department running. The final two years of writing this dissertation were made financially possible thanks to my appointment as a Graduate Writing Consultant at the UCI Graduate Resource Center, and I thank Leigh Poirier for her wisdom and camaraderie. I am grateful to my colleagues and students at the Université Paris Ouest Nanterre La Défense for the education they gave me during my time as a lectrice d’anglais. In particular, v my appreciation goes to Cécile Birks for her all-hours wrangling that made my two years in Paris possible. I was informally welcomed into the Department of Comparative Literature at Indiana University during a fellowship year I spent in Bloomington, and wish to thank the faculty and graduate students there for their warm encouragement (and lively interruptions) of my writing. My friends Ameeth Vijay, Brien Karas, Brock Cutler, Chris and Danielle Thompson, Collier Nogues, Jason Wilwerscheid, Jeff Clapp, Kim Icreverzi, Matthew Seybold, Maria Bose, Maria Testani, Mark Cunningham, Sam Arkin, Sami Siegelbaum, Sharareh Frousesh, and Vanessa Barcus have humored me through this process and made these some of the happiest years of my life. Marina Starik consulted on many of my French translations and has provided me with inspiration and love in innumerable other ways. Jessica Ostrower has listened to me kvetch for years now, teaching me in the process what it means to conduct a friendship with grace and generosity. Nasser Mufti was my first and best interlocutor throughout graduate school, and continues to be a most incisive reader and source of guidance. I thank the Garceau-Schlemmer clan—Blair, Bernie, Callie, and Jared—for welcoming me into their wonderful family and cheering me on in the past four years. Any successes in my life I owe to my parents, Lena and Tony Beauchamp, who tirelessly support me in every endeavor and have always believed in me as a writer. Finally, this dissertation simply would not exist were it not for my brilliant partner, Ben Garceau, who has lovingly supported me through this process in a way that is truly humbling. My ideas for this project took shape during our long conversations in the Promenade Plantée, Deam Wilderness, and Crystal Cove State Park. There is not a word in these pages that he has not read and re-read, and many of them were made better by his patient and insightful editing. The mistakes remain my own, but any accomplishments in the pages that follow are the product of the encouragement and care of these mentors, family members, and friends. vi CURRICULUM VITAE Tamara Beauchamp 2004 B.A. in Individualized Study, Gallatin School, New York University 2006–9 Instructor and Teaching Assistant, School of Humanities, University of California Irvine 2007 M.A. in Comparative Literature, University of California Irvine 2009–11 Lectrice d’anglais, Université Paris Ouest Nanterre La Défense 2012–14 Graduate Writing Consultant, Graduate Resource Center, University of California Irvine 2014 Ph.D. in Comparative Literature with Certificates in the Critical Theory Emphasis and the Graduate Feminist Emphasis, University of California, Irvine FIELDS OF STUDY Anglo-American, Continental European, and global modernisms; critical theory; psychoanalysis as theoretical and clinical practice; feminist and critical race theory; theories of subjectivity.

  • A Study of the Captain's Doll
    A Study of The Captain’s Doll 論 文 A Study of The Captain’s Doll: A Life of “a Hard Destiny” YAMADA Akiko 要 旨 英語題名を和訳すると，「『大尉の人形』研究──「厳しい宿命」の人 生──」になる。1923年に出版された『大尉の人形』は『恋する女たち』， 『狐』及び『アルヴァイナの堕落』等の小説や中編小説と同じ頃に執筆さ れた D. H. ロレンスの中編小説である。これらの作品群は多かれ少なかれ 類似したテーマを持っている。 時代背景は第一次世界大戦直後であり，作品の前半の場所はイギリス軍 占領下のドイツである。主人公であるヘプバーン大尉はイギリス軍に所属 しておりドイツに来たが，そこでハンネレという女性と恋愛関係になる。し かし彼にはイギリスに妻子がいて，二人の情事を噂で聞きつけた妻は，ドイ ツへやってきて二人の仲を阻止しようとする。妻は，生計を立てるために人 形を作って売っていたハンネレが，愛する大尉をモデルにして作った人形 を見て，それを購入したいと言うのだが，彼女の手に渡ることはなかった。 妻は事故で死に，ヘプバーンは新しい人生をハンネレと始めようと思う が，それはこれまでの愛し愛される関係ではなくて，女性に自分を敬愛し 従うことを求める関係である。筆者は，本論において，この関係を男性優 位の関係と捉えるのではなくて，ロレンスが「星の均衡」の関係を求めて いることを論じる。 キーワード：人形的人間，月と星々，敬愛と従順，魔力，太陽と氷河 1 愛知大学 言語と文化 No. 38 Introduction The Captain’s Doll by D. H. Lawrence was published in 1923, and The Fox (1922) and The Ladybird (1923) were published almost at the same time. A few years before Women in Love (1920) and The Lost Girl (1921) had been published, too. These novellas and novels have more or less a common theme which is the new relationship between man and woman. The doll is modeled on a captain in the British army occupying Germany after World War I. The maker of the doll is a refugee aristocrat named Countess Johanna zu Rassentlow, also called Hannele, a single woman. She is Captain Hepburn’s mistress. His wife and children live in England. Hannele and Mitchka who is Hannele’s friend and roommate, make and sell dolls and other beautiful things for a living. Mitchka has a working house. But the captain’s doll was not made to sell but because of Hannele’s love for him. The doll has a symbolic meaning in that he is a puppet of both women, his wife and his mistress.

  • A Psychoanalytic Interpretation of Pedagogical Presence
    230 A Psychoanalytic Interpretation of Pedagogical Presence Between the Teacher’s Past and the Student’s Future: A Psychoanalytic Interpretation of Pedagogical Presence Trent Davis St. Mary’s University INTRODUCTION The rise and spread of totalitarianism in Europe in the twentieth century would forever haunt Hannah Arendt. She could never stop thinking about the destruction and pain it caused and whether there were political safeguards that could prevent anything like it from ever happening again. The difficulty with trying to secure such prevention, however, as she explains in The Human Condition, is that while there is a “basic unreliability”1 to people as individuals, there is also an “impossibility of foretelling the consequences”2 of any collective action. The awkward truth, in other words, is that the past can never guarantee the future. This year’s conference theme calls our attention to this Arendtian “gap” and what it might mean for the philosophy of education today. At first blush it appears to be merely debilitating to our educational hopes (if teaching and learning cannot secure the future, what can?). But in his recent book The Beautiful Risk of Education,3 Gert Biesta asks his readers to see both “weakness” and “risk” as not just acceptable, but even necessary, components of education. Given the current obsession with “strong” forms of teaching and learning that require measurable benchmarks for assessment, it is not hard to imagine why readers might be resistant to this request. Biesta frames his argument early in the text by offering a number of important distinctions. In the prologue he explains his conceptualization of the three “domains” of education.

  • Syndicalism and Anarcho-Syndicalism in Germany: an Introduc- Tion
    Syndicalism and Anarcho-Syndicalism in Germany: An Introduc- tion By Helge Döhring Published in 2004 Topics: IWA, Germany, SPD, history, World War I, unemployed workers, FAUD, FVdG Foreword The following text comprises an introduction to the development of German syndicalism from its beginnings in 1890 until the end of its organized form in the early 1960s. The emphasis of this introduction, however, centers on the period before and leading up to 1933, when the National Socialists under Adolf Hitler ascended to power. Syndicalism, and more specifically anarcho-syndicalism, are movements that have been largely forgotten. This albeit superficial outline should, at its conclusion, show that this movement was not always so obscure and unknown. This piece aims not to comprehensively examine all the varied aspects of German anarcho-syndicalism, but rather to pique the curiosity and interest of its readers. 1. What Does “Workers’ Movement” Mean? The first thing that one learns in studying the history of the workers’ movement, in Germany and elsewhere, is that the workers were organized primarily into the so-called “Workers’ Parties.” In Germany these took the form of the SPD [Sozialdemokratische Partei Deutschlands, Social Democratic Party of Germany] and the KPD [Kommunistische Partei Deutschlands, Communist Party of Germany]. Upon further examination a number of other parties fall into view, for example Rosa Luxemburg’s Independent Social Democratic Party (USPD), or the CP’s other incarnations, the KAPD [Kommunistische Arbeiter-Partei Deutschlands, Communist Workers’ Party of Germany] and the SAPD [Sozialistische Arbeiterpartei Deutschlands, Socialist Workers’ Party of Germany]. And naturally the definition of the term “workers’ movement” places these political parties firmly in the foreground.

  • Five Formations of Publicity: Constitutive Rhetoric from Its Other Side
    QUARTERLY JOURNAL OF SPEECH, 2018 VOL. 104, NO. 2, 189–212 https://doi.org/10.1080/00335630.2018.1447140 Five formations of publicity: Constitutive rhetoric from its other side Jason D. Myres Communication Studies, University of Georgia, Athens, USA ABSTRACT ARTICLE HISTORY This essay rethinks the constitutive formation of publics by Received 20 February 2017 foregrounding the desirability of publics themselves. This project Accepted 15 January 2018 begins by theoretically resituating publics as a series of KEYWORDS irrevocably lost objects. Specifically, I contend publics are Donald J. Trump; desire; composed of a montage of desires (oral, anal, phallic, scopic, and ’ public; prosopopeia; superego) modeled on Jacques Lacan s stages of the object in metonymy obsessional neurosis. To explicate, I use this schema to parse the symbolic dimensions of the “people” aligned with Donald J. Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign. Lacan’s schema of the object is adapted into a theory of publicity exemplified in the (astonishing) resilience of the “Trump voter,” the imaginary “people” routinely invoked throughout his emergence as a political figure. Lacan’s schema, I argue, helps explain the symbolic staging of the “Trump voter” as something more than just another potent social imaginary: an object of desire. Working from recent scholarship of Barbara Biesecker, Christian Lundberg, Joshua Gunn, and a growing number of others, this essay theorizes public formation from the standpoint of desire. However, I have a different emphasis in mind: rather than studying the for- mation of publics, I demarcate five potential con-formations of publicity that undergird publics as epiphenomena. This schema of desire refers not to a universal structure, but a partitioning that introduces difference within and between modes of public formation.

  • Anarchism's Appeal to German Workers, 1878
    The centers of anarchist activity in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries included Italy, Spain, France, and the United States. The German anarchist movement was small, even in comparison to other nations that were not major anarchist centers. Contemporaries and scholars had until recently mostly agreed on the cause: anarchism was simply unable to compete with German Social Democracy, whose explosive growth beginning in the 1870s reflected the organization and self-awareness of an advanced industrial proletariat. For Social Democrats and many scholars, even those of a non-Marxist stripe, this situation represented the inevitable triumph of mature, class-conscious socialism over the undisciplined and utopian impulses of prepolitical workers.1 Once socialism had developed into a mass movement, only the detritus of the lumpenproletariat, petit bourgeois reactionaries, and decadent elites embraced anarchism. In the late 1960s and 1970s German anarchism finally began to receive a modicum of scholarly attention.2 The small body of scholarship produced since has shown that a German anarchist movement (really, movements) did in fact exist throughout the era of the German Empire (1871- 1918) among the handful of anarchists committed to "propaganda of the deed" active in the 1880s, within a circle of cultural and intellectual anarchists in the following decade, and in the form of anarcho-syndicalism after the turn of the century. Several German anarchist leaders, intellectuals, and artists also received scholarly attention as individual thinkers.3 This scholarship did much to illuminate the social and intellectual history of German anarchism, but did not significantly alter the conventional understanding of German anarchism as an atavistic expression of protest destined to be eclipsed by Social Democracy.

  • Introduction: Jung, New York, 1912 Sonu Shamdasani
    Copyrighted Material IntroductIon: Jung, neW York, 1912 Sonu Shamdasani September 28, 1912. the New York Times featured a full-page inter- view with Jung on the problems confronting america, with a por- trait photo entitled “america facing Its Most tragic Moment”— the first prominent feature of psychoanalysis in the Times. It was Jung, the Times correctly reported, who “brought dr. freud to the recognition of the older school of psychology.” the Times went on to say, “[H]is classrooms are crowded with students eager to under- stand what seems to many to be an almost miraculous treatment. His clinics are crowded with medical cases which have baffled other doctors, and he is here in america to lecture on his subject.” Jung was the man of the hour. aged thirty-seven, he had just com- pleted a five-hundred-page magnum opus, Transformations and Sym‑ bols of the Libido, the second installment of which had just appeared in print. following his first visit to america in 1909, it was he, and not freud, who had been invited back by Smith ely Jelliffe to lec- ture on psychoanalysis in the new international extension course in medicine at fordham university, where he would also be awarded his second honorary degree (others invited included the psychiatrist William alanson White and the neurologist Henry Head). Jung’s initial title for his lectures was “Mental Mechanisms in Health and disease.” By the time he got to composing them, the title had become simply “the theory of Psychoanalysis.” Jung com- menced his introduction to the lectures by indicating that he in- tended to outline his attitude to freud’s guiding principles, noting that a reader would likely react with astonishment that it had taken him ten years to do so.

INGERSOLL As Marina Ragachewskaya has recently indicated in this journal, Lawrence’s interest in the art of dance has received renewed attention in the 2010s.1 The subject has been thought to have opened with two notable investigations:2 ‘D. H. Lawrence and the Dance’ (1992) by Mark Kinkead-Weekes and then ‘Music and Dance in D. H. Lawrence’ (1997) by Elgin W. Mellown, who apparently was unaware that Kinkead-Weekes had blazed the trail before him, since his article contains no mention of this earlier work.3 Another writer who missed Kinkead-Weekes’s article, with its endnote citations from Martin Green’s Mountain of Truth: The Counterculture Begins, Ascona, 1900‒1920, was Terri Ann Mester, whose interpretations of dance scenes in Lawrence’s fiction could have benefited from even a cursory reading of Green’s 1986 study.4 Mester cites Deborah Jowitt’s Time and the Dancing Image, but she does not explore Jowitt’s very brief commentary upon Rudolf Laban and Mary Wigman, which might have provided her with yet another avenue of access to Green’s Mountain of Truth.5 To close this circle, Kinkead-Weekes then responded to Mester’s monograph in his keynote address at the 2003 International D.

  • A Brief History of the British Psychoanalytical Society
    A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE BRITISH PSYCHOANALYTICAL SOCIETY Ken Robinson When Ernest Jones set about establishing psychoanalysis in Britain, two intertwining tasks faced him: establishing the reputation of psychoanalysis as a respectable pursuit and defining an identity for it as a discipline that was distinct from but related to cognate disciplines. This latter concern with identity would remain central to the development of the British Society for decades to come, though its inflection would shift as the Society sought first to mark out British psychoanalysis as having its own character within the International Psychoanalytical Association, and then to find a way of holding together warring identities within the Society. Establishing Psychoanalysis: The London Society Ernest Jones’ diary for 1913 contains the simple entry for October 30: “Ψα meeting. Psycho-med. dinner” (Archives of the British Psychoanalytical Society, hereafter Archives). This was the first meeting of the London Psychoanalytical Society. In early August Jones had returned to London from ignominious exile in Canada after damaging accusations of inappropriate sexual conduct in relation to children. Having spent time in London and Europe the previous year, he now returned permanently, via Budapest where from June he had received analysis from Ferenczi. Once in London he wasted no time in beginning practice as a psychoanalyst, seeing his first patient on the 14th August (Diary 1913, Archives), though he would soon take a brief break to participate in what would turn out to be a troublesome Munich Congress in September (for Jones’s biography generally, see Maddox [2006]). Jones came back to a London that showed a growing interest in unconscious phenomena and abnormal psychology.
