Hamlet and Inoculation
Korean Financial Thrillers
Cet essai vise à étudier les thrillers financiers coréens produits à la fin des années 2010, en particulier Default (Kook-hee Choi, 2018) et Black Money (Ji-yeong Jeong, 2019). Ces deux films ont dévoilé le visage sombre du capitalisme financier — non seulement en démystifiant les difficultés existantes et les défis causés par la crise du crédit, mais aussi en analysant l’ordre social du monde néolibéral actuel. En Corée, le néolibéralisme s’est …
The Price of Virginity in the Early Modern Theater
Thomas Middleton was obsessed with virginity – or, at least, he enjoyed ridiculing his society’s obsession with it. Of course, this is not unusual. The theme of women’s virginity or chastity often
Marlowe’s sacred city and the walls in The Jew of Malta
This essay surveys the juridical and biopolitical significance of the city walls in Christopher Marlowe’s The Jew of Malta. Early modern cities were designed to control the spread of diseases, and the city space embodied discipline and governmentality. The function of Malta’s walls is to protect the corpus politicum against pathogens, marking the distinction between physis and nomos. Marlowe defines this function by representing lives without: th…
Finding the Optimal D/H Ratio for an Enclosed Urban Square
Using immersive virtual reality (VR), this study examined the D/H ratio principle (where "D" means the depth or width of a public space and "H" means the height of its surrounding buildings.) that urban design theorists have suggested as an important design principle for public spaces. The authors built VR models of eight enclosed urban public squares with different D/H ratios ranging from 1/3 to 6/1. They then carried out an experiment in the fo…
Biocalyptic imaginations in Japanese and Korean films
The primary purpose of this essay is to survey the recent zombie craze in Northeast Asian films from Japan and South Korea. While the concept of the zombie may have originated in colonial Haiti, with its ghoulish images and supernatural lore, zombies were later imported to North America and reformulated as popular cultural entertainment by Hollywood. They are now flourishing in an East Asian cinematic context preserved in a globalized form. The f…
The North in Shakespeare’s Richard III
This essay surveys William Shakespeare’s Richard III in terms of the early modern construction of the north-south divide. Both modern and early modern historians view King Richard III as “England’s first and only northerner king,” and during his short-lived reign the north enjoyed a time of “colonialist dominion over the South.” In Richard III, Shakespeare engages directly with this form of colonial domination. Shakespeare’s depiction of Richard …
Metropolitanism and postcoloniality in Hardt and Negri'sEmpiretrilogy
This article surveys Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri’s Empire trilogy – Empire, Multitude and Commonwealth – in terms of postcolonialism. As “the Communist Manifesto for the 21st Century”, the trilogy has inspired contemporary leftist debates on transnationalism and shaped critical discourses about biopolitics and immaterial labor. In their manifesto, Hardt and Negri claim that old empires perished long ago, and the postcolonial condition no long…
The North-South Divide in Gorboduc
Thomas Norton and Thomas Sackville’s Gorboduc metaphorizes the nation’s divide into North and South as a fratricidal feud. The narrative allegorically represents the southern English prejudice against the northern territory above the Humber. This provincial community had a shifting allegiance to the English Crown, and it was also against the unified juridical sovereignty and the Reformation propagated by the Tudor nation-state. This essay focuses…
National Messianism and English Chorography in King Lear
Through a close reading of Shakespeare's King Lear, this essay surveys English nationalism in a very specific moment—at the time of King James's accession and his propagation of the Union of kingdoms, which was soon followed by his edict of “Naturalization of the Scots”. This political claim of the Scottish monarch was in conflict with his English subjects' allegiance to English nationhood, thus creating an ambiguous allegiance between the two. S…
