Eileen Joy deposited Still Thriving: On the Importance of Aranye Fradenburg in the group
Anglo-Saxon / Old English on Humanities Commons 7 years, 3 months agoThe work of L.O. Aranye Fradenburg, especially her psychoanalytic criticism of Chaucer, and her formulations of discontinuist historical approaches to the Middle Ages, has been extremely influential within medieval studies for several decades. More recently she has been focusing on more broad defenses of the humanities, especially with regard to…[Read more]

Sara Santos deposited History Without Memory: The Memorialization of the Parsley Massacre in Edwidge Danticat’s The Farming of Bones in the group
Humanities Commons Summer Camp on Humanities Commons 7 years, 5 months agoThis paper argues that in The Farming of Bones, Edwidge Danticat seeks to historicize and memorialize the Parsley Massacre through the reframing of the historical event through Amabelle Désir’s fictional account. Through the conflation of historical artifact and literary imagination, the novel narrates, and therefore produces, a collective me…[Read more]

is based on the dynamics we see in the contemporary use of social media, particularly
personal blogs. Both media democratise the use of an existing specialised technology,
accelerate the development of this technology, and serve as vehicles for the…[Read more] -

Humanities Commons Summer Camp on Humanities Commons 7 years, 5 months agoThe late Victorian era was imbued with progressive scientific reform and palpable anxiety regarding the future of the British empire. These two topics may seem distinct, but they find mutual expression in Bram Stoker’s 1897 novel Dracula, in which the soulless Count travels from Transylvania (literally, “beyond the forest”) and invades Engla…[Read more]

Humanities Commons Summer Camp on Humanities Commons 7 years, 5 months ago- I’m happy to have discovered some more groups to join and people to follow. Although I didn’t create a HC site in challenge 4, the focus on widgets has me thinking about porting my existing WP site into HC.
