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. If the family is at the heart of Pe

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.

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.

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.

This article argues that psychoanalytic notions of affect – including ideas of anxiety and melancholia, as well as deconstructive concepts of auto-affection – offer a feminist ethico-politics and a notion of affect as interface. Beyond the confines of the experiential and the positivist, both psychoanalysis and deconstruction provide insights into affect as a technology that understands the subject as porous. I consider works by Derek Jarman and Shirin Neshat to demonstrate the importance of the ethico-politics of affect as interface in contemporary cultural production. Both artists, in the pr

Robert Burton’s Anatomy of Melancholy conveys an impressive body of medical and humanist knowledge through a multitude of voices and styles, leading some of its interpreters to reject its unity and originality. We sustain that, along with its curative strategies, Burton’s understanding of the imagination, «the queen of mental powers», is probably the most innovative contribution of his work. Grounded on the Aristotelian model, Burton develops an operative conception of imagination that is central in the fulfilment of the prophylactic and therapeutic goals of the Anatomy.

Abstract:

Queer representation in media often relies on a limited perspective built around identity visibility. Who or what is this made to serve? As with the unhappy queer archives Sara Ahmed explores in The Promise of Happiness, queerness is rendered as a surface level struggle for legitimacy in society and relationships, that far too often ends in melancholy or despair. While non-queer audiences indulge in a temporary alignment with a vicarious interpretation of queer experience, the queer audience is presented with an often melancholic or distressing representation of our racist, hetero-patriarchal,

This article examines melancholia and its stylistic rendering in three of Marguerite de Navarre’s Chansons spirituelles that do not deal with bereavement, namely Songs 29, 45, and especially 34. The Queen uses various medical, philosophical, and literary sources to describe melancholy, although she never quotes Aristotle or humoral medicine. The same applies to literary borrowings from the Imitation of Christ, which enable her to give a willful Christian response to life’s sufferings. Most of all, Marguerite spiritualises love motifs used by Petrarch in his Canzoniere, especially the dolce pen

In doing so, we consider in the images what can be seen as queer baroque. Within beauty, mystery and seduction, we find queer affect that revisits not only the baroque, but the neo-baroque in its aesthetic dimension.

In several places, then, this essay shows how these complications can be challenged and specified by select insights from trans conversations about temporality and haunting.

Abstract:

The author of this study analyzes the poetic cycle of the distinguished Polish lyric poet Tadeusz Miciński (1873–1918). The cycle, consisting of 19 poems titled Caucasus, was published in 1903 in the magazine Ateneum and later, after years of fragmentation, incorporated into the novel Nietota. The Secret Book of the Tatras (Kraków 1910). The interpreter questions what Miciński’s Caucasus represents against the backdrop of the Polish tradition of Caucasus portrayals. Exile to the Caucasus, forced enlistment into the Tsarist army, and Polish literature emerging from and upon return from the Cauc

Abstract:

This study examines the theme of “Anbingmongyurok” (安憑夢遊錄) by comparing similar texts such as Shin Kwanghan’s collection of writings, “Gijaejip” (企齋集), and “Choi Hyunmi” (崔玄微) in Taepyeonggwanggi (太平廣記). Existing discussions have often described the flower garden kingdom as a corrupted space, and have stated that there was a confrontation between the female and male groups. However, if there is a confrontational structure in this work, there is room for it to be thought of as being between plants and rainstorm, as in 〈Choi Hyun-mi〉 of Taepyeonggwanggi. This is because there are many poems writ

Abstract:

YouTube, as both a video-sharing platform and a social media platform, has become a dynamic space for the proliferation of queer female fandom, including lesbian YouTube couples, around which fans congregate. Two specific YouTube couples, Shannon and Cammie, and Kaelyn and Lucy, both broke up in summer 2016. Their breakups, and the subsequent breakup videos, were met with emotionally intense responses from their fans. To investigate how both fans and the couples themselves invest in these relationships, I conducted a discourse analysis of the language the YouTubers use to speak to their fans a

Abstract:

AbstractThis essay explores romantic responses to Lady Eleanor Butler and Miss Sarah Ponsonby, known as the Ladies of Llangollen, arguing that Anna Seward and Anne Lister celebrated the Ladies’ relationship in order to melancholically enact the same-sex ties they were themselves unable to maintain. Hailed as both pioneering lesbians and chaste romantic friends, Butler and Ponsonby may appear unlikely candidates for queer recuperation. Their place within romantic literary history is equally contentious, their status as a female couple challenging notions of singular and masculine romantic subje

Abstract This article tracks the moisture that spills across Ocean Vuong’s poetry and prose. Whereas the oceanic serves as the spectacular site across which Vietnamese refugees are rescued and rehabilitated through the scripts of US humanitarianism, moisture – as an ambient material and process – coagulates a queer, minor mode of refugee mourning and melancholia in the ongoing aftermath of the War in Vietnam. Pooling together these leftover liquids – sweat, mud, blood, amniotic fluid, semen, and urine – this study considers how the literary and chemical properties of humidity can alter extant

Abstract:

<strong>The Repressed Queer Unconscious of Eastern Europe: Pop Culture, Sexuality, and Post-Soviet Fantasies</strong> In the early decades of the twenty-first century, the territories of the former Eastern Bloc witnessed a curious phenomenon: a tentative, halting re-emergence of queer aesthetics within popular culture, against a backdrop of resurgent nationalism, Christian conservatism, and neoliberal regulation of desires. This resurgence was not, however, a straightforward “sexual revolution” of the Western sort, but a complex, ambivalent, and often repressed articulation of desi

This article examines the Instagram account @GaysoverCOVID which publicly exposed gay men who appeared to disregard COVID-related restrictions during the pandemic. While outwardly concerned to hold these men accountable, the article analyses posts and comments published on the platform to show how criticism focused on the appearance and perceived ‘promiscuity’ of the men exposed. The article draws on the work of Douglas Crimp (1989) to analyse this ‘moralism’ as a symptom of ‘melancholia’, a form of repressed mourning. It shows how the COVID pandemic has brought contested understandings of ‘sa

Introduction Jane Schoenbrun’s I Saw the TV Glow (ISTTVG) is a psychological science fiction/horror film which draws upon audiences’ associations between serialised television and queer identity development to ask a terrifying question: would you bury yourself alive to solve the mystery of a parallel life not yet lived? The film is an allegory for queer experiences of internalised heteronormativity and concealment in which the villain is not the typical monster of the week, but our own selves, suffocating under the mundanity of surroundings we have yet to break free from.

Abstract In 1672 John Evelyn, Restoration courtier, diarist and polymath, formed a platonic soul union with Margaret Blagge (later Godolphin), a young maid of honour in Queen Catherine’s household. Both were devout Anglicans whose religious practices were shaped by their love of ‘recesse’. For four years they enacted a spiritual solitude à deux in an emotionally charged relationship lived out through private prayer and epistolary devotional exchanges, until Margaret’s marriage and death in childbirth. Solitude was then, as it had long been, highly contentious. In the 1660s Evelyn had debated i

Abstract:

Closer examination of contemporary art forms including music videos in addition to the Gothic’s literature legacy is essential, “as it is virtually impossible to ignore the relationship the Gothic holds to popular culture” (Piatti-Farnell ii). This article critically examines how Gothic themes and modes are used in the music videos of Lana Del Rey; particularly the “ways in which Gothic is dispersed through contemporary non-literary media” (Spooner and McEvoy 2). This work follows the argument laid down by Edwards and Monnet who describe Gothic’s assimilation into popular culture —Pop Gothic—
