A Lens of Liminality: an Interpretive Biography of Charles Warren Stoddard, 1843-1909 A LENS OF LIMINALITY: AN INTERPRETIVE BIOGRAPHY OF CHARLES WARREN STODDARD, 1843-1909 A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAl'l IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN HISTORY DECEMBER 2004 By John-Gabriel H. James Thesis Committee: David A. Chappell, Chairperson David Hanlon Robert McGlone © 2004, John-Gabriel H. James 1ll To Poppo (1910-2000) IV ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The support of many friends and family members have helped to make this work possible. It has been a long haul. First of all, I would like to acknowledge my tremendous debt to the amazing efforts and insight of four authors who have helped me to better understand the life and times of Charles Warren Stoddard: Dr. Carl Stroven, Roger Austen, John W. Crowley, and Jonathan Ned Katz. Without their example of perseverance in the face ofobstacles and their example of taking initiative with groundbreaking research and scholarship, this work would not be possible in its present form. Next, I would like to thank my committee members, Professor David Chappell, Professor David Hanlon, and Professor Bob McGlone for all of their assistance and support. Your comments and feedback on revisions have helped me to reflect much more deeply about Stoddard's life and my own. A very special thank you goes to Joe Coppola & the Coppola Family of Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts, and all of the members of the Copley House family in Boston. Without your encouragement and support over the past five years ofstruggle, I could not have possibly completed this transformative and important project. Thank you mom, Poppo & Grandma, and Stephanie; Larry and Tanya Test of Hilo, Dr. David Purcell of UHH, and all of the library staff at 00­ Manoa and OO-Hilo. I would also like to extend a hearty mahalo nui loa and aloha to the staff at the Massachusetts Historical Society in Boston, the University of Notre Dame Archives staff, and the staff at the State of Hawai'i Archives in Honolulu. v ABSTRACT Charles Warren Stoddard (1843-1909) was an American writer who lived on several cultural fronts of the nineteenth century world. This thesis serves as an interpretive biography which utilizes an anthropological theoretical framework to shed light on Stoddard's life and times as an actor on the stage of nineteenth century American and Pacific Islands history.The lifecourse of Stoddard (especially as he came of age in the late nineteenth century) illustrates critical issues pertaining to the evolution of sexual identities, spiritualities, and politics in nineteenth century American and Pacific Islands history. The settings of Stoddard's most life­ transformative experiences were in eastern Oceania, (most notably, the Kingdom of Hawai'i), where he experienced an alternative lifestyle which stood in stark juxtaposition to 19th century Euro-American lifeways and mores. Charles Warren Stoddard's liminal (i.e., marginal) weltanschauung serve as the clarifying elements of this interpretive biography, which builds upon the significant contributions of recent scholarship.

One of the primary concerns of this text, which includes a collection of essays presented by Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders, is the ways in which gay, lesbian, and bisexual identities emerge out of the intersections of history, race, and sexua1Ity.° I Of particularly poignant interest to me during my early days as a graduate student at Manoa was an article co-written by Lisa Kahaleole Chang Hall and 1. Kehaulani Kauanui, (two scholars with roots in Hawai'i) entitled Same-Sex Sexuality in Pacific Literature. Hall and Kauanui challenge and deconstruct the frequently deployed Euro-American rubrics in which "Asians" and "Pacific Islanders" are subsumed. One of the main arguments articulated by both authors is that Pacific 1 Russel Leong, ed., Asian American Sexualities: Dimensions ofthe Gay and Lesbian Experience (London: Routledge, 1996), Introduction, passim IX peoples, from Aotearoa to the Hawaiian Islands, have shared a cosmology in which sexuality is an integral force of life - indeed the cause ofthe life of the universe - and not a separate category of behavior and existence. This viewpoint, the authors add, stands in contrast to the western analytical categories of "homosexuality", and more fundamentally, "sexuality" itself, which has ultimately established a legacy of western control and commodification of Pacific sexualities still persisting to this day.2 During the Fall Semester of 1997, I walked into an alternative bookstore in Honolulu and found a slender volume titled Summer Cruising in the South Seas, the cover of which displayed a handsome man of either Asian or Pacific Islander heritage. The individual on the cover appears mostly nude, with luxuriant tropical foliage as a tantalizing backdrop. I was surprised to see that this small book was authored by a Euro-American by the name of Charles Warren Stoddard. I opened the book to take a cursory glance of its contents, and 2 Lisa Kahaeole Chang Hall and J. Kehaulani Kauanui, "Same-Sex Sexuality in Pacific Literature", in Russell Leong, ed., Asian American Sexualities: Dimensions ofthe Gay and Lesbian Experience (London: Routledge, 1996),114-115 x was further astonished by its openly homoerotic content. I checked the years during which the text was written, and was further amazed to learn of its late nineteenth century authorship. "Who is or was Charles Warren Stoddard? ", I asked myself. And furthermore, "How could such material be written in the late nineteenth century?" And so began my search into learning more about this fascinating individual. In the Spring Semester of 1998, I wrote a research paper for a graduate seminar offered by Professor Margaret Jolly of the Australian National University. The seminar provided invaluable insight into travel literature of the Pacific, gender issues in Pacific Islands anthropology, the study of cross­ cultural encounters between Pacific Islanders and Euro-Americans from both anthropological and historical perspectives, and more. After completing a term paper on Stoddard, I realized that I had only scratched the surface of his significance as a travel writer who once described Oceania and Pacific Islanders, was a sojourner in the Pacific, and the complexities of his life as a gay, Catholic man Xl living in a frontier society with somewhat reified gender ideals. This thesis would not be possible without the initiative, fortitude and exhaustive academic research ofDr. Carl Stroven and Roger Austen, two scholars who did momentous biographies of Stoddard: Stroven, in the year 1939, and Austen during the late 1980s? Stroven was one of the first scholars to study Stoddard from a biographical and literary historical perspective, and Austen followed suit some five decades later, including important evidence of Stoddard's sexual liminality; namely, his homosexuality. Although Stroven merely hints of Stoddard's homosexuality in the narrative of his Ph.D. dissertation (the word homosexuality is mentioned only on a few occasions within the approximately three hundred pages of Stroven's study), it is Austen who first unabashedly addresses the dynamic of homosexuality in Stoddard's life in Genteel Pagan: The Double Life ofCharles Warren Stoddard. Carl Stroven's study explores a plethora of sources: Stoddard's voluminous diaries and 3 Roger Austen, John W.

Some forty to fifty years later, Roger Austen utilized many untapped sources directly related to Stoddard's homosocial and homosexual relationships, primary sources from Stoddard's days as a professor at both Notre Dame and the Catholic University of America, and draws poignant conclusions regarding Stoddard's homosexuality from the vantage point ofthe new, burgeoning field of queer studies, a field which delves into the evolution of gay and lesbian

  • Pacific Pastoralism: Ancient Poetics & The
    PACIFIC PASTORALISM: ANCIENT POETICS & THE DECONSTRUCTION OF AMERICAN PARADISE A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI‘I AT MĀNOA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN AMERICAN STUDIES MAY 2014 By Travis D. Hancock Thesis Committee: Joseph Stanton (Chairperson) Brandy Nalani McDougall Robert Perkinson Keywords: Pastoral, Paradise, Pacific Islands, Hawai‘i, Herman Melville, Charles Warren Stoddard, Mark Twain, Theocritus, Longus ABSTRACT: This aim of this thesis is to deconstruct the etymology of the word “paradise” within the context of early Pacific narratives by popular American authors, and then within today’s tourist propaganda. Fundamental to that process is the imagination of “Pacific Pastoralism,” in which the pastoral tradition is considered as a predecessor to American traditions of describing the landscapes and peoples of the Pacific region, as those descriptions fueled an economy forcibly mapped onto that space. Herein texts are analyzed via close-reading comparisons, historical research, and more lyrical methods such as rhetorical stargazing, echolocation, and narrative technique. While this thesis is indebted to scholars in the fields of American Studies and English literature, it attempts to open space for Pacific Island Studies to epistemologically counter its cultural materialist claims. In total, this thesis is a critique of tourist marketing, which was ferried from antiquity to the Pacific on wooden ships, and today renders beaches little more than golf course sand-traps.

  • Public Opinion and News Reporting: Different Viewpoints, Changing Perspectives
    Public Opinion and News Reporting: Different Viewpoints, Changing Perspectives Grades: 7-HS Subjects: History, Oregon History, Civics, Social Studies Suggested Time Allotment: 1-2 class periods Lesson Background: Our impressions of events can often be influenced by the manner in which they are reported to us in the media. Begin by staging a class discussion of some recent news event(s) that have caused controversy. Can the students think of any news stories that strongly divide public opinions? Any that have been reported in a variety of different ways, depending on which television channels you watch or magazines you read? Can they think of examples where they thought one way or formed a certain opinion about a certain news event, only to have their minds change and opinion shift later, when more information came to light in the media? Moving on from this discussion, the lesson can demonstrate these issues of perspective. Lesson #1: Joaquin Miller—Genius or Cad? Joaquin Miller was the pen name of Cincinnatus Heine Miller, a colorful and controversial poet of the nineteenth century. (Read a detailed biography of Joaquin Miller on Wikipedia, here.) Known in his day as the ‘Poet of the Sierras,’ the ‘Byron of the Rockies,’ and the ‘Bard of Oregon,’ Miller became a celebrity throughout the United States, and especially in England. He was an associate of such enduring literary figures as Ambrose Bierce and Brett Hart. However, it could be argued that Miller’s fame came more from the popular image he created for himself—frontiersman, outdoorsman—than from the actual quality of his literary work.
