The Huac Othello
Paul Robeson was a remarkable singer, a brilliant actor, and an engaged political activist. In his college years he was a football star. Throughout his life he campaigned for the rights the poor, the disadvantaged, and the oppressed. His most famous theatrical role was Othello; when he played the part in London and in New York he was one of the first black actors to do so. The New York production ran on Broadway longer than any other William Shak…

Identity theft
Psychoanalysis has almost disappeared from the curricula of most American universities, which I illustrate by the case of the department of psychology at my own university, Harvard. Courses on psychoanalysis are very rare there and it is mostly seen as a part of history of psychology and not as a set of ideas that can be useful nowadays. Personality models developed by Freud or Melanie Klein, as well as many more contemporary psychoanalysts, are,…

The Muses on Their Lunch Hour
As a break from their ordained labors, what might the Muses today do on their lunch hour? This collection of witty, shrewd, and imaginative essays addresses interdisciplinary topics that range widely from Shakespeare, to psychoanalysis, to the practice of higher education today. With the ease born of deep knowledge, Marjorie Garber moves from comical journalistic quirks (“Fig Leaves”) to the curious return of myth and ritual in the theories of ev…

Patronizing the Arts
What is the role of the arts in American culture? Is art an essential element? If so, how should we support it? Today, as in the past, artists need the funding, approval, and friendship of patrons whether they are individuals, corporations, governments, or nonprofit foundations. But as Patronizing the Arts shows, these relationships can be problematic, leaving artists "patronized"--both supported with funds and personal interest, while being cond…

Queer Theory
Queer Theory is one of the most contested and intellectually complex movements in contemporary sexual politics. Where did it come from, and what does it do? Is queer theory only for queers? If you have ever wanted to be a leather daddy, been puzzled by performativity, tried to measure bisexuality, or wondered whether Diana, Princess of Wales could be a gay icon, Queer Theory is required reading. This vibrant anthology of groundbreaking work by in…

This is a study of bisexuality as an erotic, social and cultural phenomenon, which sets out to challenge preconceptions about love, sex, gender and identity. The idea of bi-sex intrigues, titillates and provokes. It unnerves men and women, straight and gay alike. Is bisexuality a third choice between hetero- or homo-sexuality? Or is it something that questions the very concept of sexual identity itself? This book explores these questions. It exam…

Greatness
Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have thrust upon them. This essay addresses the cultural fantasy of heroes and greatness-the fantasy of greatness as something recognizable and objectified-and the ways in which that designation, that epithet, informs and structures our culture. Greatness, as a term, is today both an inflated and a deflated currency, shading over into categories of notoriety, transcendence, and some version of…
