The Afterlives of #MeToo
One of the risks of a special issue with US-based editors and with a topic overwhelmingly identified not only with the US but also with affluent white women is that conversations might neglect the expertise of scholars focused on Indigeneity and the majority of the world. The diverse scholars who contribute to this roundtable—while by no means covering every region in which #MeToo activism has taken place—decenter the US in exploring #MeToo disco…
Sex, Violence, and Memoir
This article engages David Wojnarowicz's "memoir of disintegration" Close to the Knives (1991), a text that contains numerous and variegated representations of sexual encounters before and during the beginnings of the AIDS crisis in the United States. Wojnarowicz's memoir provides this article with its critical focus because it points us to one iteration of the narratological before-life of the #MeToo movement. In this article, we explore how, in…
Suicidal Tendencies
This essay concentrates on a series of suicide plots in which the risk of one's undoing does not indicate a refusal of one's existing life as much as it performs a fantastic desire to live a different one. Willa Cather's short story "Paul's Case" (1905), Ridley Scott's Thelma and Louise (1991), and Alejandro G. Iñárritu's Birdman (2014) help us think about how suicide functions as a sustaining fantasy and a queer narrative strategy. In each, the …
Willing to Die
Strange Beauty
When the question of aesthetics and politics is addressed, it is usually in the context of the Marxist and Frankfurt school debates. Nonetheless, what we think of as the well-rehearsed, and to some thinkers, transhistorical, polarity between art and activism is actually a fairly recent and exceptional account. At least since the eighteenth century rise in aesthetic philosophy (and arguments could be made farther back than this), the relationship …
Unnatural Selection
Unnatural Selection: Mothers, Eugenic Feminism, and Charlotte Perkins Gilman's Regeneration Narratives" historicizes and theorizes the complexities of fin-de-siecle "women's literature"--fiction by and about women that highlights and explores the social relations of gender. Attending especially to the involvement of this literature in the textual mediation of scientific discourse, I ask: if some of the greatest anxieties over cultural progress or…
