October 2016Selbst
by Thomas Meinecke
Eine WG in Frankfurt am Main: Eva (Mode-Redakteurin, Kunsthistorikerin, »Prinzessin«), Genoveva (autodidaktische Sexualwissenschaftlerin, Forschungsschwerpunkte: Autogynophilie und Selfie Culture) und Venus (androgynes Model, Kulturwissenschaftlerin, Forschungsschwerpunkt: die Kolonien deutscher Vormärz-Auswanderer in Texas, insbesondere die Geschichte der nach Bettina von Arnim benannten libertären Kommune am Llano River). Sie schießen Modestrecken auf der Baustelle der EZB, werden Zeuge der polizeilichen Erstürmung des Instituts für Vergleichende Irrelevanz, gehen tanzen im »Robert Johnson« und suchen nach Zärtlichkeit jenseits einer von Freud, Foucault oder Butler als Gefängnis geschilderten Sexualität. Sie sind die Hauptfiguren in einem mal platonischen, mal erotischen Postgender-Liebesreigen, inszeniert von Thomas Meinecke, feministischer Autor, Anhänger weiblichen Schreibens und Schriftsteller-Darsteller im eigenen Roman. »Studieren wir also: die feinen Verästelungen, die sich zwischen Subkultur und Höhenkammartistik, kanonisierter Geschichte und historischer Kolportage ergeben.« Daniel Haas, FAZ

The ArtsNovember 2017Vivien Leigh
Actress and icon
by Kate Dorney, Maggie B. Gale
This edited volume provides new readings of the life and career of iconic actress Vivien Leigh (1913-67), written by experts from theatre and film studies and curators from the Victoria & Albert Museum, London. The collection uses newly accessible family archives to explore the intensely complex relationship between Vivien Leigh's approach to the craft of acting for stage and screen, and how she shaped, developed and projected her public persona as one of the most talked about and photographed actresses of her era. With key contributors from the UK, France and the US, chapters range from analyses of her work on stage and screen to her collaborations with designers and photographers, an analysis of her fan base, her interior designs and the 'public ownership' of Leigh's celebrity status during her lifetime and beyond.

Modern & contemporary fiction (post c 1945)February 2019Cuentos Bi
by María de Alva, Raúl Ortega Alfonso, Silvia Goldman, Beatriz Berrocal, Jorge León Gustà, Meli Navas
Bi? Bi what? BI Stories groups six stories that explore the idea of duplicity and repetition from different perspectives, expanding the "bi" beyond two so as not to have figures and to become innumerable. Some of the inhabitants of this more than binary universe are: a young woman with feline features who unfolds in her uniqueness; a bilingual publicist trained to teach a new language; a mother between two lands who is lost and finds herself in his fantasies; a reader who reads and is read at the same time; a commercial for an insurance company very sure of himself; and a lady who does not listen, and a music-loving tree as a tandem protagonist of the same story. The characters and voices in these stories delve into the unraveling of the being and the human, to reiterate that everything dual can be multiplied in a process of (dis)assimilation.

Literary studies: fiction, novelists & prose writersHemingway's The Garden of Eden
Twenty-five Years of Criticism
by Suzanne DelGizzo (editor), Frederic J. Svoboda (editor)
When The Garden of Eden appeared in 1986, roughly twenty-five years after Ernest Hemingway’s death, it was a watershed event that changed readers’ and scholars’ perceptions of the famous American author. Following five months in the life of protagonist David Bourne, a rising young writer of fiction, and his highly intelligent but artistically frustrated wife, Catherine, the novel is unique among Hemingway’s works. Its exploration of gender roles and identities, unconventional sexual practices, race, and artistic expression challenged the traditional notions scholars and readers had of the iconic writer, and it sparked a debate that has revolutionized Hemingway studies.It was also the first of Hemingway’s posthumously published novels to garner a storm of criticism regarding the editing of its text. Many comparative studies have been done between the original manuscript, which contains over 2,000 pages, and its heavily edited published version, which has little over 200 pages. Despite the whirlwind surrounding The Garden of Eden, no book-length study of the novel has ever been published—until now.In Hemingway’s The Garden of Eden, editors Suzanne del Gizzo and Frederic J. Svoboda have collected the best essays and reviews—pieces that examine the novel’s themes, its composition and structure, and the complex issue of editing a manuscript for posthumous publication—and placed them in a single, cohesive volume. Among the included works are E. L. Doctorow’s famous New York Times review “Braver Than We Thought,” a new essay by Tom Jenks examining his editing process in “Editing Hemingway: The Garden of Eden,” and Mark Spilka’s “Hemingway’s Barbershop Quintet: The Garden of Eden Manuscript,” a precursor to his groundbreaking study of Hemingway’s concerns with sex and gender roles, Hemingway’s Quarrel with Androgyny.

December 2021Queering Chinese Kinship
Queer Public Culture in Globalizing China
by Lin Song
What does it mean to be queer in a Confucian society in which kinship roles, ties, and ideologies are of such great importance? This book makes sense of queer cultures in China—a country with one of the largest queer populations in the world—and offers an alternative to Euro-American blueprints of queer individual identity. This book contends that kinship relations must be understood as central to any expression of queer selfhood and culture in contemporary cultural production in China. Using a critical approach—“queering Chinese kinship”—Lin Song scrutinizes the relationship between queerness and family relations, and questions Eurocentric queer culture’s frequent assumption of the separation of queerness from blood family. Offering five case studies of queer representations across a range of media genres, this book also challenges the tendency in current scholarship on Chinese and East Asian queerness to understand queer cultures as predominantly counter-mainstream, marginal, and underground. Shedding light on the representations of queerness and kinship in independent and subcultural as well as commercial and popular cultural products, the book presents a more comprehensive picture of queerness and kinship in flux and highlights queer politics as an integral part of contemporary Chinese public culture.

Humanities & Social SciencesApril 2015Same-Sex Sexuality in Later Medieval English Culture
by Tom Linkinen
This volume investigates the state of same-sex relations in later medieval England, drawing on a remarkably rich array of primary sources from the period that include legal documents, artworks, theological treatises, and poetry. Tom Linkinen uses those sources to build a framework of medieval condemnations of same-sex intimacy and desire and then shows how same-sex sexuality reflected“and was inflected by“gender hierarchies, approaches to crime, and the conspicuous silence on the matter in the legal systems of the period.
