Abstract
Hace unos días, I watched “The Turn of the Screw.” Esa famosa versión I’d fetichized for years. Décadas, actually. Years ago mi estudiante Sasha Fariña (creo recordar que she was a CMC science student, enrolled in my Latin American poetry seminar) fisgó en el internido y teorizó que it had actually been a TV special. Me acuerdo que that didn’t sound right to me, and I let it drift back down hacia el ether del olvido. Pero después de trabajar todo el santo día en Operasie Restorasie (as Wim baptised my writing process para Our Ubuntu, Montenegro) me sentí bien burnt out and in the invisible linksy way of things de repente on a whim hice Google el film--for the millionth time. Esta vez, instead of the myriad other versions que siempre he descartado al tiro al ver el cast o el año (“The Innocents” con la Deborah Kerr es bien spooky, pero way too early; la 1999 version con la sublime Jodhi May también es buena, pero too late), bingo, this could be it, me dije.
期刊介绍:
PORTAL Journal of Multidisciplinary International Studies is a fully peer reviewed journal with two main issues per year, and is published by UTSePress. In some years there may be additional special focus issues. The journal is dedicated to publishing scholarship by practitioners of—and dissenters from—international, regional, area, migration, and ethnic studies. Portal also provides a space for cultural producers interested in the internationalization of cultures. Portal is conceived as a “multidisciplinary venture,” to use Michel Chaouli’s words. That is, Portal signifies “a place where researchers [and cultural producers] are exposed to different ways of posing questions and proffering answers, without creating out of their differing disciplinary languages a common theoretical or methodological pidgin” (2003, p. 57). Our hope is that scholars working in the humanities, social sciences, and potentially other disciplinary areas, will encounter in Portal scenarios about contemporary societies and cultures and their material and imaginative relation to processes of transnationalization, polyculturation, transmigration, globalization, and anti-globalization.
