Abstract:

This thesis foregrounds a question unanswered in queer theory�s account of the ongoing reproduction of heteronormativity. In Gender Trouble, Judith Butler asks "From where does the performative draw its force, and what happens to the performative whose task it is to undo" that discursively legitimated enacting? (Bodies That Matter 224-5). While queer theory offers a compelling account of how the normative fictions of identity privilege heterosexuality, the first part of Butler�s question remains relatively under-theorised. This thesis addresses this gap and argues that to understand the source

Abstract:

Gay male culture is suffused with indications of the importance of women and bonds with women. Indeed the Stonewall riots, mythologised moment of the birth of modern gay politics, are often said to have been catalysed by gay male grief at the death of Judy Garland. Why should a culture apparently founded on same-sex desire be so preoccupied with relationships across gender difference? The thesis attempts to map the shape and effects of bonds with women by using a materialist analytical framework in relation to texts and their critical retinue. The first chapter looks at A Streetcar Named Desir

Abstract:

The past few decades have seen a rise in the visibility and legal rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) people, yet persistent stigmatization has left many searching for alternate ways of seeking connection. An increasingly popular means for LGBTQ individuals to find relationships is through online dating. While the Internet has been prolific in connecting LGBTQ communities, existing research on the use of Internet-dating sites in sexual minorities has focused primarily on gay men’s dating practices, overlooking queer women. The present study used a narrative approach

Through an intersectional, embodied (psycho-spatial and synaesthetic), and processual theoretical matrix, my thesis unpacks the complex mechanisms underpinning the visual identification of subjects and artworks as "Desi" - the Hindi word meaning "from my country" - within the geographical and conceptual space that roughly includes the US, UK, and the South Asian subcontinent. To add further traction to my investigation, I yoke "queer" to Desi. The latter as two overlapping, and at other times competing, sets of visual identifications, serve to bring to the fore, rather than subsume, the comple

South Africa claims the most progressive constitution on the African continent, extending protections to all citizens regardless of race, gender, ability or sexual orientation.

Abstract:

The term 'New Queer Cinema' was coined by critic B. Ruby Rich in 1992, in an attempt to mark a flourishing of independent lesbian and gay film and video work that she observed occurring at the time. Key films of the (rather short-lived) movement included My Own Private Idaho (Van Sant, 1991), Poison (Haynes, 1991), Swoon (Kalin, 1992), and The Living End (Araki, 1992). To date, very little has been written about New Queer Cinema. This thesis is an attempt to fill this gap in scholarship.

Abstract:

Contemporary Indian sexual identities are constructed out of the multiple effects of tradition, modernity, globalisation and colonialism. The nation as we understand it is constructed on the basis of a commonality which ‘binds’ its citizens, and also banishes and expels those who do not conform to this commonality. Within this logic of disenfranchisement I firmly place the Indian queer male. This thesis examines the online ‘queer’ male community in India that has been formed as a result of the intersection and ruptures caused by the shifting political, media and social landscapes of urban Indi

This thesis provides the first extensive queer reading of a 'Golden Age' British detective fiction writer.

Human identity can be read as self-consciously constructed in Christie's novels, which were written in a context of two world wars, advances in technology and communication, and what Michel Foucault called the 'medicalization' of Western culture. The self-conscious stereotyping in Christie's prose undermines her texts' conservative appeal to the status quo. Chapter One justifie

This thesis performs a textual analysis of two for-profit science fiction texts in which the authors implanted queer content: Bryan Singer's X-Men films and James Robert's Transformers comic series, "More Than Meets the Eye".

By interrogating reality through the masquerade of an impossible universe, science fiction affects how subversive a text can be.

Abstract:

In response to the globalizing queerness argument and the cultural specificity argument in queer cultural studies, this thesis examines the emerging modern queer identity and culture in the contemporary People’s Republic of China (PRC) in an intercultural context.
