Full text
Abstract:
This distinctive and engaging book proposes an imaginative criminology, focusing on how spaces of transgression are lived, portrayed and imagined. These include spaces of control or confinement, including prison and borders, and spaces of resistance. Examples range from camps where asylum seekers and migrants are confined to the exploration of deviant identities and the imagined spaces of surveillance and control in young adult fiction. Drawing on oral history, fictive portrayals, walking methodologies, and ethnographic and arts-based research, the book pays attention to issues of gender, sexuality, age, ethnicity, mobility and nationality as they intersect with lived and imagined space.

Full text
Abstract:
Robin Holt and Mike Zundel describe their use of another unconventional source of data—a television fictional crime series. They argue that the boundaries between ‘soft fiction’ and ‘hard fact’ are blurred, and that fictional accounts can generate insights into aspects of organizational and social life more effectively than conventional methods. The relationship between fiction and social science can be understood in four ways: fictional research, fiction as inspiration, fiction as data, and fiction as research. Their approach is illustrated with an analysis of the cult television crime series The Wire, which is based on the drugs trade in Baltimore, involving the gangs, police, social workers, churches, local authorities, and wider community. The Wire can be seen as a rich ethnography, illustrating how fiction can illuminate individual, group, and organizational phenomena including emotions, hopes, fears, and conflicts, and the wider social condition, highlighting the institutional constraints on individual behaviour.

Full text
Abstract:
The relationship between the categories of “documentary” and “artistic” in literature, authenticity and fiction, was considered even by ancient scientists. However, the theoretical problem presented in the title of this collective scientific work is among the most relevant in the modern science of literature. The IWL scholars have been working to solve this problem for quite a while. Therefore, the appendix to this work contains two articles by P.V. Palievsky (1932–2019) from the legendary three-volume “Theory of Literature. The main problems in historical coverage” (Moscow, 1962–1965), which have not lost their scientific significance even today.The works of Russian literature of the 18–19 centuries are considered in a broad historical and cultural context, the chronological framework extends from antiquity to the beginning of the 20 century. The historical and literary material covered is diverse in terms of genre: prose and poetry, translations and original works, critical articles and fiction, novels and lyrical poems, epistolaries and ethnographic essays, travel and diaries are analyzed. A number of articles are entirely based on archival sources: “Daily Notes” or “Diariush” by St Dimitry of Rostov and “Petition” by M.P. Avramov, the associate of Peter I, translations by M.N. Muravyov from ancient authors and his letters to S.M. and F.N. Lunins, correspondence of L.N. Tolstoy with the peasant writer F.F. Tishchenko are involved into the scientific review for the first time.

Birkhold, Matthew H. Characters Before Copyright. Oxford University Press, 2019. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780198831976.001.0001.

Full text
Abstract:
How did authors control the literary fates of fictional characters before the existence of copyright? Could a second author do anything with another author’s character? Situated between the decline of the privilege system and the rise of copyright, literary borrowing in eighteenth-century Germany has long been considered unregulated. This book tells a different story. Characters before Copyright documents the surprisingly widespread eighteenth-century practice of writing fan fiction—literary works written by readers who appropriate preexisting characters invented by other authors—and reconstructs the contemporaneous debate about the literary phenomenon. Like fan fiction today, these texts took the form of sequels, prequels, and spinoffs. Analyzing the evolving reading, writing, and consumer habits of late-eighteenth-century Germany, Characters before Copyright identifies the social, economic, and aesthetic changes that fostered the rapid rise of fan fiction after 1750. Based on archival work and an ethnographic approach borrowed from legal anthropology, this book then uncovers the unwritten customary norms that governed the production of these works. Characters before Copyright thus reinterprets the eighteenth-century “literary commons,” arguing that what may appear to have been the free circulation of characters was actually circumscribed by an exacting set of rules and conditions. These norms translated into a unique type of literature that gave rise to remarkable forms of collaborative authorship and originality. Characters before Copyright provides a new perspective on the eighteenth-century book trade and the rise of intellectual property, reevaluating the concept of literary property, the history of moral rights, and the tradition of free culture.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter shows how the exploration of the local and global worlds, the expansion of British trade and empire, catalysed new territories of fiction. It first focuses on writings regarding voyages and pirates, which have proliferated in the novels of the 1720s. The chapter then turns to the exploration of lands, where novels began providing zoological, ethnographic, and topographic detail. The point is not so much how the travel narratives may have been sources or models for the early novel, but rather how the early travel narratives themselves had the compelling power and quite often the narrative art of those early novels. Finally, the chapter turns to narratives set within England itself.

Abstract:
Autism is a deeply contested condition. To some, it is a devastating invader, robbing families of their children and sufferers of their personhood. To others, it is a form of neurodiversity, a fundamental and often valued aspect of identity that is more similar to race or gender than to disease states. How do young people coming of age with an autism spectrum diagnosis make sense of this conflict in the context of their own developing identity? The book addresses this question through sustained ethnographic engagement, informed by both clinical psychology and anthropology, within communities where people on the autism spectrum come together to live, learn, work, love, and play. Using an approach known as clinical ethnography, the book tracks neuroscientific discourses as they are adopted, circulated, and transformed among those affected by Asperger’s syndrome and related autism spectrum conditions. Dominant ways of talking about autism, whether as invasive disease or as hardwired neurogenetic identity, share a fundamental presupposition: that the healthy self is sharply bounded and destroyed if it is altered. However, the subjective experiences of youth on the spectrum exceed the limitations of these medical models. Reaching beyond medicine for their narratives of difference and disorder, these youth draw instead on shared mythologies from popular culture and speculative fiction to conceptualize their experiences of discontinuous and permeable personhood. In doing so, they also pioneer more inclusive understandings of what makes us who we are.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter focuses on Theaster Gates’s 2010 exhibition To Speculate Darkly, which puts Gates’s multimedia work in dialogue with Drake. Jarenski’s chapter engages with the theme of erasure in Gates’s aesthetic and examines the ways that Gates imagined himself as Dave “the Slave” Potter, using Dave’s hyperbolic vessels as the staging area for his own artistic performance. Gates’s work with Dave resonates with the work of other artists, like Kara Walker (inspired by the panorama, the silhouette, and sentimental fiction) and Carrie Mae Weems, who has incorporated ethnographic daguerreotypes into her work. In order for us to fully appreciate the still undertheorized experimental breakthroughs of antebellum black artists, slave and free, this chapter claims that we must recognize the continued influence of nineteenth-century forms on contemporary African American art.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter analyzes the novels of the British writer Barbara Pym, which are often read as cozy tales of English middle-class postwar life but which, I argue, are profoundly influenced by the work Pym carried out as an editor of the journal Africa at the International African Institute in London, where she worked for decades. She used ethnographic techniques to represent social change in a postwar, decolonizing, non-normative Britain of female-headed households, gay and lesbian relationships, and networks of female friendship and civic engagement. Pym’s novels of the 1950s implicitly criticize the synchronic, functionalist anthropology of kinship tables that dominated the discipline in Britain, substituting an interest in a new anthropology that could investigate social change. Specific anthropological work on West African social changes underpins Pym’s English fiction, including several journal articles that Pym was editing while she worked on her novels.

Full text
Abstract:
The taxonomic difficulties generated by the essay film are rooted in its in-between positioning vis-à-vis genres, which facilitates the subversion of their conventions and the uncovering of their ideological underpinnings. The chapter works through these ideas by engaging with a particular type of essayistic ethnofiction, as represented by Luis Buñuel’s Las Hurdes (Land without Bread, 1933), Werner Herzog’s Fata Morgana (1971), and Ben Rivers’s Slow Action (2011). Located somewhere between documentary and fiction, surrealism and ethnography, science fiction and anthropology, these texts create generic interstices from within which the project of ethnography is satirized and deconstructed—and discourses of otherness, nature, culture, power, imperialism, ecology, and sustainability are both foregrounded and called into question.

Sharrad, Paul. South Pacific. Oxford University Press, 2018. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780199679775.003.0011.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter focuses on the history of the South Pacific novel as a post-1950s phenomenon. Many Pacific writings from the early phase of literary production came in the form of ‘auto-ethnographic’ accounts of village life or the transcription of oral stories in which the separation of the writer is indicated often implicitly in the external viewpoint of the narrative and its use of formal English to depict a clearly non-Anglo world. To become a writer, one had to enter school, where he/she had to be acquainted not only with maths tables and alphabets but also new patterns of behaviour fitted to the subject position of ‘student’, disruptive of a traditional sense of communal identity. The chapter examines how literacy, with its ties to Western education, allowed Pacific Islanders to correct false representations of themselves in colonial adventure stories. It also shows that South Pacific fiction is imbued from the start with the vision of flux and fragmentation that is modernity, while contemporary shifts in Pacific identities due to the pan-Pacific diaspora and transnational networks have encouraged novelistic innovation in the increasingly pervasive print culture of a globalized Pacific.
