Dark satanic mills to ivory towers
In this article, Sally R Munt reflects on issues of social class discrimination in higher education in an engaging conversation with Louise Morley, both from the University of Sussex
Feminist Comics in an International Frame
is focussed on exploring how comics and graphic narratives have engaged with feminist politics. We have brought together artists and critics from a range of countries to discuss and debate how artists represent and debate gender, with examples of comics taken from Japan, Nepal, India, UK, China, Mexico, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Egypt, Argentina, Turkey, Hong Kong, and South Africa. We are thrilled to bring this content to our readers; th…
East European Feminisms
General Introduction to the Special Issue 'East European Feminisms'.
Interview with Marina Gržinić
Gay shame in a geopolitical context
With the developing acceptance of gay equality in the west, it is assumed that we live in a post-shame era, with ‘the world we have won’. However, this is a chimeric cliché of neoliberalism (rather like the idea that we are all postfeminist now). The ‘proud’ homosexual of the west is discursively constructed against the ‘shamed’ homosexual of the east, a typecasting resonant with postcolonial clichés of the primal, religious, and homophobic savag…
A feminist politics of shame
This editorial piece introduces a special issue on the feminist politics of shame. It locates the special issue in the larger framework of scholarship on feminist approaches to shame and specifically feminist psychological emphases, and contextualises the foregrounding of the productive possibilities of shame for feminist social justice projects. The introductory piece overviews the contributions to the special issue through a thematic lens
Classed formations of shame in white, British single mothers
This article discusses the formation of shame in a group of white heterosexual British women originally from middle-class backgrounds. Narrative interviews convey how participants perceive their lives to have been “spoiled” and stigmatised through becoming single mothers. They articulate perceptions of how their lives have fallen short of idealised heteronormative, middle-class trajectories of neoliberal success and adopt a range of narrative str…
A politics of shame
Queer Spiritual Spaces
This introduction presents an overview of the key concepts discussed in the subsequent chapters of this book. The book represents the more 'mainstream' religions and addresses the spiritual spaces that are presumed to embrace, refuse and refute traditions whilst re-establishing their own norms It offers an engagement with the key social scientific and theological literature that have to date intersected sexualities, with religion and spiritualiti…
Queer Spiritual Spaces
Drawn from extensive, new and rich empirical research across the UK, Canada and USA, Queer Spiritual Spaces investigates the contemporary socio-cultural practices of belief, by those who have historically been, and continue to be, excluded or derided by mainstream religions and alternative spiritualities. As the first monograph to be directly informed by 'queer' subjectivities whilst dealing with divergent spiritualities on an international scale…
Argumentum ad misericordiam
This article discusses the widespread use of victim tropes in contemporary Anglo-American culture by using cultural theory to analyse key social media memes circulating on Facebook in 2015. Since the growth of social media, victim stories have been proliferating; victim narratives are rhetorical, they are designed to elicit pity and shame the perpetrator. They are deployed to stimulate political debate and activism, often to appeal to an all-purp…
Sensory geographies and defamiliarisation
This article’s starting point is a sensory, reflexive walk taken on Brighton seafront and beach, by fourteen migrant women and some of their children. It goes on to open up a wider discussion about the cultural politics and affective resonances, for refugees and migrants, of beaches. By discussing their sensory experiences of the beach, we begin to understand their ‘ostranenie’, or defamiliarisation, of making the familiar strange. We also see ho…
Explorations in the Sense of Touch
Journeys of resilience
This article considers the emotional geographies of a highly vulnerable demographic: refugee women. As a marginalised and ontologically fragile group, refugees have developed rich and perceptive insight on space and place, by developing a critical vigilance that reflects forward and back on their life journeys, real and metaphorical. Through participation in a psycho-educational course designed by the author, nine women produced their own images …
Pride and Prejudice
This article discusses the successful legal exclusion of Irish lesbians and gays from the St. Patrick's Day parade in New York and explores the ideologies of nation-space and public space that underpin this exclusion. It argues that the progression through urban space of the marches enforces compulsory heterosexuality, through actual and semiotic exclusion. Irish American nationalism can be read as illustrative of the heterosexualization of natio…
A Seat at the Table
The unmentioned emotions that ghost this article include hurt, rage, loneliness and melancholia. It addresses pervasive and pernicious emotional dynamics among lesbians who work within the career structure of third-level institutions. These dynamics are like the elephant in the sitting room--we've all been to some extent a party or witness to these scenarios and hence are all implicated in the psychic life of these dramas, but we don't describe o…
A Queer Undertaking
The USA television drama Six Feet Under ended after five successful seasons, in 2005. Created by Alan Ball, who also wrote and directed many of the subsequent episodes, the aesthetic of Six Feet Under manages to combine camp, dark humour with a contrasting tragic seriousness concerned with negotiating an ethics of love and death. This humour is manifested through the surreal content, for example in the bizarre and witty modes of death in the open…
Queers in Space
Shame/pride dichotomies in Queer As Folk
Queer As Folk, an eight-part gay drama scheduled in February, March, and April 1999, was seen by Channel 4’s Chief Executive Michael Jackson as a signature show that would help to develop the channel’s distinctive place in British broadcasting for radical, experimental, minority television. The programme has subsequently developed iconic value for Channel 4, appearing on much of their publicity material and mission statements, signifying the sinc…
VII. Power, Pedagogy and Partiality
I have been teaching for 10 years both in adult education and in five different university departments. The issue of power relations in these pedagogical environments has circulated, for me, around the issue of both my identity, and my academic fields of feminist theory and lesbian and gay studies. Unpredictable alliances, and unexpected antagonisms, have caused me many times to examine the peculiar projections that my lesbian identity provokes; …
I Teach Therefore I Am
The article discusses the origins of Lesbian Studies as arising out of an intellectually engaged grassroots lesbian community and an emergent Women's Studies within the academy. The article contrasts Lesbian Studies in the UK with the USA, which has 'professionalized' work in Lesbian and Gay Studies, which concomitantly has produced its own problems. Feminism bequeathed to Lesbian Studies the axiom 'the personal is political' and this is discusse…
New Lesbian Criticism
This volume explores whether there can be a specific lesbian aesthetic, juxtaposed against reading as a 'woman' or as a 'heterosexual'. Contributors both explore the uses of recent theories such as post-structuralism and offer a lesbian critique of such methodologies. Close readings of contemporary lesbian fiction and popular culture focus on works such as Zami, Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit, The Wanderground, and Desert of the Heart as well as …
