Caitlin Duffy started the topic CFP: American Ecogothic at NeMLA in the discussion
American Literature on Humanities Commons 7 years, 5 months agoLeslie Fiedler describes American fiction as “bewilderingly and embarrassingly, a gothic fiction… a literature of darkness and the grotesque in a land of light and affirmation” (Love and Death in the American Novel, 29). However, for settlers within the early colonies and citizens of the young republic, the wilderness of the supposed New World…[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
Postcolonial Studies 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]

Humanities Commons Summer Camp on Humanities Commons 7 years, 6 months agoHi, @ninalager.
To get a picture to go across your screen on the Radcliffe theme, you can choose to set a “featured image” for that post. The space to upload that image is on the bottom right of your post’s editing page. I think I’m thinking about the same image space as you are, but if I’m talking about something else, please let me know! Hope…[Read more]
