Abstract:
I examined publication trends for The Canadian Field-Naturalist (CFN) between 1980 and 2015 to determine whether a general decrease in natural history studies has been affecting CFN. I also establish a baseline of the types of authors that publish in CFN, and the types of studies that are typically published. Fewer but longer articles are being published every year. More authors per article with greater collaboration are publishing every year. The majority of authors are Canadian, but a large number of authors are from the USA. The majority of studies focus on vertebrates, and most of these fo

Abstract:
Marmaduke Tunstall (1743–1790) was a naturalist, antiquary and collector. Active in London during the 1760s and early 1770s, he built up an extensive Library and a Museum that was particularly notable for its systematic collection of British birds. Tunstall corresponded with several of the leading British naturalists, and with Linnaeus, and made his collections available for study to several authors. At the age of 33, Tunstall retired to a country estate at Wycliffe on the south bank of the Tees, where he spent the rest of his life. Newly-discovered information is incorporated with previously-

Abstract:
The theme of emigration is present in the work of two of the most prominent nineteenth-century Galician authors, Emilia Pardo Bazán and Rosalía de Castro. They had very different approaches: the topic of displacement in several naturalist stories by Pardo Bazán is far removed from the discourse of affect that characterizes de Castro’s work. But in the novel Morriña [‘Homesickness’] (1889), Pardo Bazán displays an uneasy mixture of both discourses (sentimentalism and naturalist determinism) which is, I will argue, a result of the unresolved tension between her Spanish nationalism and her femini

Abstract:
The increasing visibility of a number of previously marginalized literary cultures is one of the most challenging developments in post-war American fiction. My dissertation deals with the novels of Bernard Malamud (1914–1986), a contemporary Jewish-American author, whose work is linked with this phenomenon as well as other significant trends in the recent literature of the United States. It is customary to think that ethnic authors write within the older realist or naturalist traditions. The new scholarship, however, claims that literary forms are not organically connected with ethnic groups.

Chicago occupies a place in the American imagination as a city of industry and opportunity for those who are willing to hustle. Writers have in no small part contributed to the creation of this mythology; this canon includes Frank Norris, Theodore Dreiser, Upton Sinclair, Carl Sandburg, and Richard Wright. What is it about these authors that make them the classics of Chicago literature? The “essential” books of Chicago enshrine a period during which the city still held a prominent position in the national economy and culture, and embodied for Americans something of their own identity—the value

"Mirroring naturalism in word and image: a critical exchange between Émile Zola and Édouard Manet." In Ekphrastic encounters, edited by Lauren S. Weingarden. Manchester University Press, 2019. http://dx.doi.org/10.7228/manchester/9781526125798.003.0008.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter explores how Émile Zola’s ekphrastic writings about Édouard Manet’s paintings functioned as a template on which the writer imposed his evolving theories of the naturalist novel. It argues that, while Zola championed Manet in his critical reviews of the artist’s works, he did so in the name of naturalism and the scientific objectivity and analysis naturalism promoted. Moreover, it seems likely that Manet would have read Zola’s 1868 preface to Thérèse Raquin where the author first mandated his naturalist theories. The chapter asks what Manet would have thought about Zola’s subjugation of painting to writing and his refusal of meaningful content in his art. It proposes that Manet painted Zola’s portrait in 1868 as a retort to the critic’s misinterpretation of the painter’s artistic method. Manet’s portrait of Zola also reveals how the artist, in turn, appropriated the writer and his writing to his own artistic agenda, the subsequent manifestations of which culminate in Manet’s final masterpiece, A Bar at the Folies Bergère (1882).

Full text
Abstract:
Multicultural, western societies are quite secular, and the secular-sacred divide has been shaped by the fact-value split. But, the fact-value split also influences many other cultures, including in Latin and South America and East Asia. On it, science yields knowledge, but religion and ethics yield opinions and values. Closely related is the public-private split: governments should act on public reasons (ones based on science), and not private ones (ones based on religious and ethical views). Such science is methodologically naturalistic, bracketing anything supernatural or non-physical. This science usually presupposes ontological naturalism: what exists is natural, or physical. But, the author will contend the fact-value split is mistaken; on naturalism, humans cannot have knowledge. At best, people only have interpretations, even in science. However, the author also will argue that people can have moral and religious knowledge. If so, there will be many practical implications for public policy and religious practice.

Abstract:
Having examined the foundation of Spinoza’s moral philosophy in the previous four chapters, in this chapter the author begins to flesh out Spinoza’s moral philosophy. He argues that Spinoza is committed to the underivative goodness of human wellness and the underivative badness of human illness. He shows that such goodness is naturalistic in a sense that makes it a precursor to contemporary sciences that deal with physical and mental health. And he elaborates the specific type of axiological ambiguity and complexity to which Spinoza’s naturalism leads by outlining his hierarchical system of classification of emotions, a hierarchy based on whether a type of emotion is indefeasibly good, defeasibly good, indefeasibly bad, or defeasibly bad. This system of classification, in turn, undergirds the classification of desires as indefeasibly good, defeasibly good, indefeasibly bad, or defeasibly bad.

Abstract:
On the trajectory towards ever-increasing abstraction, modernity perceives any libidinal implication in the sensory as dangerous. In Strindberg’s naturalistic plays, the feminized libidinal other threatens human (male) autonomy with fusion. In the “anthropocentric” theatrical tradition that includes Strindberg’s naturalist work, the lethal threat posed by communitas is more often expressed in metaphors of nonhuman otherness than through nonhuman characters themselves. Strindberg questions the status of his female protagonists as not fully human through their association with the nonhuman (parasites, blood, animals, etc.), while simultaneously enlivening this materiality, which can no longer be reduced to passive matter only. The post-metaphysical coming-to-terms with the autonomy of objects is, however, at the heart of Strindberg’s work. With Strindberg, the enactment of (human and more-than-human) difference starts to move in ontological status from a metaphor, i.e. a representationalist mode safely in the human author’s hands, to (in Artaud, for instance) an agentive element of the performance.

Abstract:
In this chapter the author assesses the cultural significance of Larson’s work within the closing decades of the twentieth century. To do this, he does the following: questions traditional views of newspapers cartoons as ephemeral gags that lacked semiotic weight; speculates on the level of emotional and intellectual investment of Far Side fans that collected, shared, clipped out, and posted favorite installments—and often proudly purchased and displayed Far Side paraphernalia like t-shirts and coffee mugs; and considers ways of thinking about The Far Side as a sprawling, micro-serialized, years-long text that included over 4,300 installments. He concludes by highlighting the satiric bite and philosophical depth of Larson’s work as a whole, suggesting that his most devoted to readers were prompted to develop critical ways of perceiving society, human behavior, and other mainstream cultural texts through the worldviews of naturalism, absurdism and the carnivalesque. Recollections from comedy professionals and every day fans are highlighted to support these conclusions.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter is devoted to one of the most fascinating figures of the twentieth century, David Lewis. The key to understanding this author of so many works in so many areas of philosophy is to see how his views are related to those of his colleague Saul Kripke as well as to those of his teacher W. V. O. Quine. Like Kripke, Lewis embraced the modalities (necessity and a priority) that Quine rejected. Also like Kripke, Lewis had no sympathy for Quine’s early verificationism or his flights from intension and intention, and he was straightforwardly a realist about science in general. However, despite these similarities with Kripke, Lewis’s analysis of necessity could not be more different from Kripke’s. Quine taught that vindicating naturalism and extensionalism required eliminating intensional facts and rejecting intensional constructions, his student Lewis, however, tried to show that intensional facts are just a species of extensional facts, and that intensional constructions in language are no threat to the integrity of an austere, naturalistic vision of reality.
