Abstract:
GLQ: A Journal of Gay and Lesbian Studies, founded in 1993, offers an exemplary site for understanding the rise of queer theory, which, from the start, has struggled with the tension between institutionalization and radical resistance. By situating the emergence of this journal and queer theory in general within the AIDS crisis and the literary tradition of the elegy, this essay offers a reading of conventional academic practices as rituals of queer melancholia that comes to challenge the assumption of queer theory’s secularity.

Abstract:
This article analyses the messy queer relationships that shape la familia in Tanya Saracho’s show, Vida. It highlights how the show reckons with mess as an affective structure in the lives of queer Latinx subjects, whose racialized sexualities and genders produce intricate subject positions from which to negotiate power. By offering ‘messy queer familias’ as an analytic paradigm, the article tracks the ways in which pleasure, desire, shame and melancholia converge and diverge in the storylines of the two Chicana protagonists, Emma and Lyn. I suggest that Vida tells a messy story about queer La

Abstract:
In discussions of anime director Ikuhara Kunihiko, much emphasis has been placed on the prominence of queerness in his works. Mawaru Penguindrum (2011), with its focus on familial belonging and relatively low incidence of explicitly LGBTQ+ characters, is consequently often framed as the most heteronormative of Ikuhara's works. Drawing on the ways in which queerness has deployed in queer theory as a force that pushes against normativity, I argue that Penguindrum can nonetheless be read as a queer text insofar as it queers the concepts of family and nostalgia.

Abstract:
Abstract Grief and trauma mark both the ancient past and the present, while melancholia reflects the possibilities for holding on in both contexts. In order to vary and multiply our approaches to people and places touched by loss, biblical scholars could get a different feel for the potentials of melancholia as examined in affect, queer, and critical race theories. While Pauline letters often aim to convert grief away from pain and trauma, the pre-Pauline materials within them (specifically, the slogans in 1 Corinthians and the Christ-hymn in Philippians) index a communal melancholia, refusals

Abstract:
In the late 2000s and early 2010s, popular and scholarly accounts of contemporary China perceived a moral crisis on the nation's streets. Critics centered their analyses on the lack of trust between strangers in a society that privileges kinship, but their visions of civil society ignored subjects with different relational ethics. This article demonstrates how a focus on queer sociality can intervene in and trouble these conversations on the figure of the stranger and the orientations of Chinese urban life. The discussion turns to the now defunct website Xi'an Men, which once served as one of

Abstract:
This essay aims to explicate the psychological loss in the post-pandemic era in terms of Judith Butler’s melancholia, mourning, and mania. Melancholia is explained in Gender Trouble (1990) as a mechanism in which the abandoned love object constructs a gendered ego of a subject. Later, in The Psychic Life of Power (1997), it is discussed as a social phenomenon of public anger and public resistance to emphasize the performativity of rage and militancy in queer rallies and die in demonstrations against denied public mourning.

Abstract:
AbstractThis essay considers the place of nostalgia in scholarly research and writing in the light of psychoanalytic theories of subjectivity and desire. The term ‘nostalgia’, coined in the seventeenth century to define a medical condition, is, despite attempts at rehabilitation, generally employed to describe a weak sentimentality incompatible with genuine research. Two writers, Walter Benjamin (a leader of the Frankfurt school of criticism) and Carolyn Dinshaw (a medievalist and queer theorist), have opened up a different path for nostalgia in the light of different temporalities.

Examining the powerful protest art piece Rainbow Mary [Tęczowa Madonna] by Elżbieta Podleśna, this piece considers the reasons for Polish homophobia and transphobia as expressed by recent events including the rise of the conceptual right-wing framework of ‘gender ideology’, efforts to create ‘LGBT-free’ zones, and attempts at preventing Pride Parades. It argues that Polish right-wing hatred towards LGBTQ+ people is rooted in unresolved trauma and melancholia stemming from centuries of colonisation and occupation.

This thesis analyses expressions of queer tendencies in contemporary visual arts. Its main objective is to focus on gender-conscious strategies of performative excess realized by mimicries and triggered by identification and identity troubles. I use 'queer' to conceptualize a performance which perturbs hetero-normative dialectics of visual representation and disrupts the dynamics of its fixating recognition. I refer to the word 'tendency' in order to indicate the latency and/or the valency of the image in such a performance. Concentrating on the oeuvres of David Hockney, Robert Mapplethorpe, D

This dissertation examines lesbian and queer desire in texts in Catalan and Spanish written in Barcelona, Montevideo, and Buenos Aires from the 1960s to the present. In the texts, desire includes but is not limited to the erotic; it encompasses issues of queer textuality, relationality, and literary transmission. I focus on the works of three authors who have spent the majority of their lives in Barcelona. However, the city appears almost incidentally in their works; the genealogies that the authors trace are transnational. The texts combine literal movement (through exile or diaspora) and a m

This chapter addresses the question of how unresolved racial grief works through the demands of capital, racialization, and sacred ritual practice to enact a gender hierarchy. It thinks through James Baldwin's first novel, Go Tell It on the Mountain (1953), to explore how testifying serves as a technology of black patriarchy—a ritual that arises out of the need for racial and economic redemption yet unfolds within and propagates gendered power relations. It examines how the content and structure of Baldwin's Bildungsroman, set in Harlem's Pentecostal community during the Great Depression, alle

Abstract:
There are few grand narratives that loom over Asian Americans more than the “model minority.” While many Asian Americanist scholars and activists aim to disprove the model minority as “myth,” author Takeo Rivera instead rethinks the model minority as cultural politics. Rather than disproving the model minority, Rivera instead argues that Asian Americans have formulated their racial and gendered subjectivities in relation to what Rivera terms “model minority masochism.” Rivera details two complementary forms of contemporary racial masochism: a self-subjugating masochism which embraces the model

This essay examines photographic representations of queer Latinidad. A longing to discover a photographic history of Latina lesbian desire prompts a discussion of queerness in the context of Latinx love, sexuality, and desire. By way of examples of photographic representations, queer Latinidad is presented as complex and capable of encompassing paradoxical but expansive, nondichotomous understandings of sexuality and of gender presentation. Such photographic representations also allow for disidentifications that introduce the possibility of desires that cut across races and racism. Following M
