  • House of Pain

    Open AccessJ PeacockARTICLEEnglish Studies2025Referências: 12

    This article proceeds from the observation that fictional residents of homes in gentrifying neighbourhoods are rarely permitted to get too comfortable. They perceive their domestic havens always to be under threat: sometimes from malevolent invaders who are all too real, sometimes from less substantial phenomena – ghosts, memories, guilt, the incipient realisation that from another point of view, the gentrifier might also be regarded as an invade…

  • The Blot Inside

    Open AccessJ PeacockARTICLEANQ A Quarterly Journal of Short…2025Referências: 4

    This paper argues that the blot in A Gambler's Anatomy exists in a long line of deep metaphors in Lethem's work, an ancestor of "Lack" in As She Climbed Across the Table (1997) and the giant hole in the center of Manhattan in Chronic City.In the context of this story, which casts Stolarsky as the pantomimic capitalist villain, it can be interpreted as an ideological blind spot which prevents the protagonist from recognizing his entrapment in a cy…

  • James Boon

    J PeacockARTICLEAnthropological Quarterly2017

    In the text that follows, I will attempt to appreciate the work of my former student James Boon by offering some reflections on three images or themes from his copious writings: the bride as widow, colonialists living in Bali, and "museums make me sad." I then expand on my interpretation of these three images, drawing on memory and connections to other themes in our field. Next, I invite Boon and his intellectual successors to consider one implic…

  • Risk, Disappointment and Distraction in Keith Gessen’s All the Sad Young Literary Men

    Open AccessJ PeacockARTICLEEuropean Journal of American…2013Referências: 6

    Keith Gessen’s debut novel is not a “post-9/11” text in the manner of Falling Man or Terrorist. It is not concerned, explicitly, with the aftermath of the attacks. Like many “post-9/11” texts, however, it asks questions about the ability of twenty-first century writers to tackle big issues—tragedy, violence, history. The three main characters—Sam, Mark and Keith—are Ivy League-educated writers with an extensive knowledge of history, but have dise…

  • Negotiating Identities in a Heteronormative Context

    Amy Dellinger Page, J Peacock et al.ARTICLEJournal of Homosexuality2013Citada por: 13Referências: 13

    Society prescribes a set model of heterosexual development toward a gender and sexual identity. Individuals with gender and sexual identities that do not conform to the prescribed heterosexual identities must essentially develop their own way, that is, they must privately negotiate their path through identity development and identity adoption. However, while negotiating their private reality, they must rely on existing concepts of other. Using a …

    David Maybury-Lewis and Pia: Social/Symbolic and Public Anthropology James Peacock David Maybury-Lewis and Pia have influenced my "research, teaching, and activism" in ways that evolved and hopefully will continue to evolve. The trajectory from teacher/scholar to public intellectual, expressed in David's and Pia's life and work, also influenced the life and work of others, as illustrated here. I was still a new graduate student at Harvard (second…

  • ‘What they Seek for is in Themselves’

    Open AccessJ PeacockARTICLEQuaker Studies2008

    This paper argues that Quakerism was an important influence on a number of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century American writers. Looking at the work of, amongst others, Charles Brockden Brown, Robert Montgomery Bird, Ralph Waldo Emerson and John Greenleaf Whittier, it demonstrates that both the stereotyped depiction of Quakers and the use of Quaker ideas, such as the inward light in literature of the period, helped writers tackle some of the parad…

  • New York and yet not New York

    Open AccessJ PeacockARTICLEEuropean Journal of American…2008Referências: 1

    The article analyzes the depiction of Brooklyn as an urban region in a number of recent American novels, including Lynne Sharon Schwartz’s Leaving Brooklyn and Kitty Burns Florey’s Solos. It argues that Brooklyn is frequently defined in opposition to Manhattan: the former being viewed as the epitome of American ideals of community-in-diversity, the latter as homogenizing, globalizing and obsessed with newness. In a time when regions and communiti…

  • Reflections on Collaboration, Ethnographic and Applied

    J PeacockARTICLECollaborative anthropologies2008Citada por: 7

    Reflections on Collaboration, Ethnographic and Applied James L. Peacock (bio) Ethnography for me began with collaboration as a necessity, but lately collaboration has become an end—part of relationships and "applied" work—with ethnography as a byproduct: a move from collaborative ethnography in a narrow sense to collaboration per se in a broader sense with possible ethnographic aspects. A reason for this shift is a move from research to applied w…

  • Green exercise in the UK countryside

    Jules Pretty, J Peacock et al.ARTICLEJournal of Environmental Planning…2007

    There is evidence that contact with the natural environment and green space promotes good health. It is also well known that participation in regular physical activity generates physical and psychological health benefits. The authors have hypothesised that ‘green exercise’ will improve health and psychological well-being, yet few studies have quantified these effects. This study measured the effects of 10 green exercise case studies (including wa…

    Kathryn A Sloan, J Peacock et al.ARTICLEThe Arkansas Historical Quarterly2006

    Looking beyond broad theories of globalization, this volume examines the specific effects of globalizing forces on the southern United States. Eighteen essays approach globalization from a variety of perspectives, addressing such topics as relations between global and local communities; immigration, particularly of Latinos and Asians; local industry in a time of globalization; power and confrontation between rural and urban worlds; race, ethnicit…

  • Action comparison

    J PeacockCHAPTERAnthropology, by Comparison2002

    In this chapter I argue the following: first, that the global world ushering in the new millennium creates a distinctive opportunity for comparison (by which is meant in this chapter the comparative method, especially as used in anthropology); second, that anthropology faces an appropriate moment in its history to seize this opportunity; and third, that, in so doing, comparison can be usefully engaged with issues in the world. Pursuant to this th…
