Abstract:

This essay begins by asserting the importance of Joanna Russ as an American writer of the second half of the twentieth century. Her feminist concerns and her stylistic bravura are examined, as are the ways in which she deals with the socioeconomic construction of power in orde r to transcend any uncritical biological essentialism. The second half of the essay considers the context of two phrases that occur in D. W. Griffith's film Intolerance and also in Russ's writing: “hill girl” and “the female man” (The Female Man is the title of one of Russ's novels). The possibility that Griffith's film is Russ's textual source for these phrases is considered.

Abstract:

Still lacking theoretical definitions, expanded universes are an artistic phenomenon often seen in science fiction literature as well as in narratives in other media. This text proposes a mechanism to explain how these universes come into being. For this, we analyze a series of cases such as Robert A. Heinlen’s Future History, Ursula K. Le Guin’s Hainish Cycle, George R. R. Martin’s Thousand Worlds, Joanna Russ’ Whileaway, and transmedia examples such as the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Borrowing from Tamar Yacobi’s concept of mechanisms of integration – ways in which the reader makes sense of inconsistencies or oddities in a narrative – we argue that the explanation that two or more independent stories are set in a common universe is a hypothesis generated by the reader to integrate coincidences between these stories

Abstract:

La thèse traite de la question de la représentation féminine en jeu dans les œuvres de Joanna Russ, Ursula le Guin, Toni Morrison, Margaret Atwood et Daphne Marlatt. Cette thématique est élaborée à partir d'un questionnement philosophique sur le genre. Les utopies et les dystopies publiées aux Etats-Unis dans les années 1970 ont contribué à fournir de nouvelles possibilités narratives pour la représentation du féminin. Depuis les stratégies de résistance élaborées qui émanent des œuvres rendent compte d'un vaste champ de définitions conduisant à l'émergence de la notion d'un pluriel féminin. Les études des romans sont envisagées dans une perspective transdisciplinaire qui a pour but de rendre compte de leur aspect polyphonique. L'analyse de la construction de l'identité féminine repose sur l'étude d'autres domaines concernant le genre, l'identité, l'ordre symbolique, l'Histoire. La diversité structurelle et thématique observée ici constitue un domaine d'investigation privilégié et caractérisé par une densité linguistique. Cette thèse a pour objet d'analyser et de mettre en évidence les modes discursifs qui témoignent d'une vision poétique, esthétique de l' "agir" féminin. Une telle vision tend à décentrer les codes établis de manière subversive et par conséquent à en questionner la logique binaire prétendument immuable
This work deals with the question of the representation of feminine identity in the works of Joanna Russ, Ursula Le Guin, Toni Morrison, Margaret Atwood and Daphne Marlatt. This topic is based on a philosophical questioning about gender. The literary utopias and dystopias published in the United States in the 1970's provided new narrative possibilities for feminine representation. Since that time, due to the strategies of resistance elaborated in the texts, a wide scope of definitions of the feminine has emerged, thus conveying the notion of a "plural feminine". The narratives are analyzed from a theoretical and cross-disciplinary perspective which enhances its polyphonic aspect. The analysis of the construction of feminine identity stems from other related questions linked to gender, identity, symbolic order, and History. The thematic and structural diversity observed here constitute a field of investigation characterized by symbolically dense language. This thesis analyses and emphasizes discursive modes which testify to a poetic, aesthetic and ethical vision of the feminine "will to act". Such a vision intends to subversively decenter established codes and consequently to question a supposedly immutable binary logic

Abstract:

This dissertation examines the gendered discourses in the novels of the writers of different sexes/genders, Robert Heinlein&rsquo
s Stranger in a Strange Land, Ursula Le Guin&rsquo
s The Left Hand of Darkness, Joanna Russ&rsquo
The Female Man and Samuel Delany`s Trouble on Triton: An Ambiguous Heterotopia. This study investigates how writers linguistically construct their characters as gendered/sexed beings as an effect of certain identity politics, ideologies and power structures. In order to do so, critical discourse analysis is applied to the passages chosen from different parts of the novels under consideration. Moreover, Butler&rsquo
s performativity theory of gender and Foucault&rsquo
s theory of discourse/power/knowledge and his conceptualization of subjectivity are employed in the discursive analyses of the novels. The argument of the study is that there is a close relationship between discourse, ideology and the constitution/representation of gender/sex as contingent on a particular socio-cultural and historical context. This study is based on Butler`s assertion that gender is a doing, a performance, and it is a cultural and ideological construct. Thus, the study shows that writers&rsquo
linguistic choices for the constructions and descriptions of their characters are not ideologically or politically innocent but imbued with socio-cultural and ideological meanings.

Abstract:

Essa dissertação é o resultado dos questionamentos e das inquietações suscitadas a partir do encontro das narrativas de ficções científicas e das ideias feministas. Esses pulsares teóricos transpassam em alguns momentos minha trajetória acadêmica, tentando, concomitantemente, conciliar e incorporar essas duas formas literárias. A discussão basilar advém da leitura de The Female Man, de Joanna Russ, em um encadeamento sutil com a minha perspectiva enquanto sujeito mulher em contato com esses universos. Por fim, busca-se desvendar os fragmentos narrativos que estão impregnados de poderosas imagens subversivas e palavras transgressoras que convocam as leitoras e leitores a repensar, resistir e reformular a realidade ao seu redor.
This thesis is the result of questioning and restlessness raised by the encounter of science fiction narratives and feminist ideas. These theoretical pulses trespass at some moments my academic trajectory, trying concomitantly to harmonize and to embody these two literary types. The underlying discussion comes from the reading of The Female Man, by Joanna Russ, inside a sutil chaining with my perspective as woman subject in contact with these universes. Lastly, It seeks to unravel the narrative fragments that are impregnated with powerful subversive images and transgressive words that invite male and female readers to rethink, resist and reshape the reality around them

Abstract:

While acknowledging that Russ’s work is problematic in some regards, the aim of this thesis is to counter the criticism of Russ’s oeuvre as outdated and sometimes stuck in second-wave feminist positions, instead demonstrating how Russ’s use of sci-fi strategies such as cyborgism, possible-worlds theory, utopianism, and concretised metaphors in The Female Man and The Adventures of Alyx enables her to move beyond second-wave feminist positions and anticipate third-wave feminism in ways that are still relevant today.

Abstract:

Joanna Russ is a gifted writer whose works expose the folly of the dominant paradigm in science fiction, a patriarchal society which subverts female development. My thesis examines Russ's development as a writer, her innovative and heuristic approach to science fiction, and her feminist convictions. To trace the development of Russ's works I will examine the characteristics and qualities of science fiction and adventure fantasy, their relationship to one another, and how they differ from conventional fiction. I will then apply those principles to Russ's "Alyx stories" as they develop from fantasy to science fiction, becoming more sophisticated and critical. Picnic on Paradise (1968) heralds Russ's arrival as an author of science fiction. As a feminist entering a predominantly male genre, Russ established a foundation for later feminist writers via her critical approach to mainstream ideology and her intelligent alternatives to conventional gender roles. By detechnologizing science fiction and incorporating feminist issues in her plot and characterization she brought the women's movement into science fiction. Russ's most provocative novel, The Female Man (1975), examines the difficulties of constructing a workable feminism for women of differing backgrounds and interests. She exposes the socialized self-denial and isolation used to divide women's groups and proposes a humanistic approach to feminism which subverts stagnant patriarchal conventions.

Abstract:

Joanna Russ (1937-2011) was an outstanding writer, critic, and theorist of science fiction at a time when female writers were marginal to the genre, and very few women, perhaps only Judith Merril and Joanna herself, had significant influence on the field. In her university teaching and in her writing she championed the integration of new social models and higher literary standards into genre works. In her review columns for the Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction she dissected the masters of the New Wave with appreciation, wit, and incisive intelligence. Her experimental novel The Female Man (1975) is an essential seventies Feminist text, still relevant today; her groundbreaking academic articles are recognized as foundation studies in feminist and science fiction literary scholarship. Drawing on Jeanne Cortiel’s lesbian feminist appraisal of Russ, Demand My Writing (1999), Farah Mendelsohn’s essay collection On Joanna Russ (2009), and a wide range of contemporary sources, this book aims to give context to her career in the America of her times, from the Cold War domestic revival through the 1960s decade of protest and the Second Wave feminism of the 1970s and 1980s, into the twenty-first century, examining her novels, her remarkable short fiction, her critical and autobiographical works, her role in the science fiction community, and her contributions to feminist debate.

Abstract:

The study of literature and medicine in the Romantic period is an established and expanding field. However, scholars have tended to focus on a few canonical writers and a small number of texts, thereby obscuring the age’s huge diversity of medical writing. This chapter takes a wider view, presenting five case studies of medically trained or medically connected writers who demonstrate the broad intersection between medical and literary culture: John Aikin, Benjamin Rush, Joanna Baillie (sister of the physician Matthew Baillie), Erasmus Darwin, and John Keats. The chapter uses these case studies to show what is distinctive or innovative about interactions between literature and medicine in the period. The case studies also represent different genres of medical literature, or different genres that became in some sense medicalized: biography, autobiography, drama, didactic poetry, and epic. Each case study includes some consideration of the reception history of the genre in question.
