Emerging From the Shadows : the Life of Captain John (Deserontyou), Circa 1742-1811, Founder of the Bay of Quinte Mohawk Village

This thesis is a biographical examination of the life of Mohawk leader Deserontyou (Captain John) and covers the years from the 1730's up to, and briefly following, 1811. The social, economic and political position of the Mohawk people and Deserontyou's position within the Fort Hunter community prior to the Revolution are addressed first. The Revolutionary War years are then covered with emphasis placed on Deserontyou's military role, the unpleasant conditions at Lachine and the painful reality for the Mohawk people in the aftermath of Britain's defeat. The post-war settlement on the Bay of Quinte is then explored, including the difficulties that Deserontyou experienced with the land, with the British Government, and with his own people. The documents upon which this examination are based come from many primary collections including: The Draper Manuscripts, the Haldimand Papers, the Stuart Papers, Ontario Lands & Forest Survey Records, the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts, Episcopal Records, the Bell Papers, the File Collection, the Claus Papers and Indian Affairs Papers.

Disruptive Threads and Renegade Yarns: Domestic Textile Making in Selected Women's Writing 1811-1925

Images of domestic textiles (items made at home for consumption within the household) and textile making form an important subtext to women’s writing, both during and after industrialization. Through a close reading of five novels from the period 1811-1925, this thesis will assert that a detailed understanding of textile work and its place in women’s daily lives is critical to a deeper understanding of social, sexual and political issues from a woman’s perspective. The first chapter will explore the history of the relationship between women and domestic textile making, and the changes wrought to the latter by the Industrial Revolution. The second chapter will examine the role of embroidery in the construction of “appropriate” feminine gentility in Jane Austen’s Mansfield Park (1814). The third chapter, on Elizabeth Gaskell’s Cranford (1853), will explore how the older female body became a repository for anxieties about class mobility and female power at the beginning of the Victorian era. The fourth chapter will compare Sara Jeannette Duncan’s A Social Departure (1890) and Kate Chopin’s The Awakening (1899) to consider how later Victorian women both internalized and refuted public narratives of domestic textile making in a quest for “self-ownership.” The last chapter, on Martha Ostenso’s Wild Geese (1925), examines the corrosive, yet ultimately redemptive, relationships of a family of women trapped by abuse and degradation. For all five authors, images of textiles and textile making allow them to speak to issues that were usually only discussed within a community of women: sexuality, desire, aging, marriage, and motherhood. In all five works, textile making “talks back” to the power structures that marginalize women, and lends insight into the material and emotional circumstances of women’s lives.

No início era o fim: a (des)ordem intencional de Irréversible, de Gaspar Noé

O cinema clássico caracteriza-se por uma absoluta linearidade evenemencial, em que, por causa e efeito, o filme progride até ao seu fim, o qual corresponde ao cumprimento de todos os objetivos do herói. Este sistema orienta o espetador ao longo do percurso de storytelling, permitindo-lhe usufruir da imersão no mundo diegético. É também nesta base que as crianças aprendem o significado do mundo, quando colocam as questões: “Porquê?”/“E depois?”. Mas e se o “depois” viesse “antes”? Nesse caso verificar-se-ia uma sabotagem do resultado e um boicote do entendimento. Contudo, é essa a proposta estética de um filme que decide contar uma história com princípio, meio e fim, mas fazendo-o, em tranches, por ordem inversa à dos eventos: Irréversible (Gaspar Noé, 2002). Analiso este filme com o intuito de provar que esta construção não é um mero jogo lúdico ou um simples artifício criativo, pois o material narrativo é muito pesado e a estratégia tem intuitos ideológicos metanarrativos. A inversão da ordem dos acontecimentos proporciona uma avaliação do filme como discurso autoral sobre a narrativa cinematográfica, em que o realizador/argumentista nos confronta com propósitos dramatúrgicos precisos. A interpretação do filme é inteiramente condicionada pela ordem em que os factos nos são apresentados, aumentando o valor da história narrada, tanto quanto o da narração.

Jovellanos y Goicoechea: de cómo combatir la pobreza.

José Antonio de Liendo y Goicoechea dedicó uno de sus ensayos más extensos a reflexionar "sobre los medios de destruir la mendicidad y de socorrer a los verdaderos pobres de la villa de Nueva Guatemala"; dicha memoria se redactó en 1796 por petición de los miembros de la Sociedad Patriótica de Amigos de Guatemala y se publicó allí al año siguiente. Se propone en ella ordenanzas para regular la conducta de los pobres y remedios para aliviar su situación; también se discuten y detallan las reglas que deben regir las instrucciones de beneficia en la pujante ciudad de finales del siglo dieciocho.
