Recent attempts (Timothy Aubry, Robert S. Lehman et al.) at redressing this have often appealed to Kant's aesthetics with its open avowal of pleasure as the basis of judgement. Kant's universalism, however, has been largely held at arm's length out of a worry that it underwrote hegemonic canons. Yet Kant himself disputes the claims of external authorities in matters of taste and his account of the universal voice of aesthetic judgements underwrites no rules or models that would give objective form to a canon. To enjoy—in Kantian terms—a canonical work is to enjoy sociably, but without any objective marker of unity to that sociability. I follow Lyotard and de Duve in arguing for the relevance to democratic politics of the transcendental community of Kant's aesthetics. The task Kant has bequeathed literary critics is not the establishment or defence of a canon, but rather the interrogation of how the pleasure in texts is both a mode of sociability and a means of engaging with phenomena in their singularity.","PeriodicalId":44728,"journal":{"name":"COLLEGE LITERATURE","volume":"49 1","pages":"682 - 710"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47347136","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

No critic, to my knowledge, has ever noticed this description as anything more than an obvious representation of its speaker's, Aaron's, racial difference; film, for its part, has either cut it from the script or kept it as an unperformed and therefore oddly inconsequential line. Specifically, what has not been explored or explained is the performative magic of a Black man straightening his kinky \"black\" hair in a Roman forest on an early modern stage. Addressing and drawing on the under-appreciated interdisciplinary value of a Black Studies critical consciousness, this essay argues that Aaron's hair straightening represents Shakespeare's racialization of Ovid's Metamorphoses in an effort to develop for England a liberating, pro-creative alternative to the Roman literary tradition. In this regard, Titus is an anti-colonial play, and Aaron its anti-colonial hero. And it is through the application of Ovidian magic to his hair—like the application of a poetic hot comb or hair relaxer—that Shakespeare imagines a post-colonial future for England.","PeriodicalId":44728,"journal":{"name":"COLLEGE LITERATURE","volume":"49 1","pages":"628 - 651"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44121985","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This essay answers this question by examining the case of absent insects in Austen's Emma. After a review of how a traditional, humanistic reading of the novel unfolds, the essay proposes an alternative view to explore how the novel has omitted vital biological agents and processes in favor of a particular androcentric viewpoint, one in which humans not only reign supreme, but also display a high degree of separation from and imperviousness to the natural world. The essay argues that, in the wake of Covid 19, this mythic (if highly pleasurable) view of the human warrants critical reexamination. Thus, while the essay demonstrates an alternative reading practice to a canonical text, it also proposes new, biologically informed approaches to teaching such texts in the literature classroom. In other words, it suggests that literary study has much to gain from newer biological definition of that it means to be human.","PeriodicalId":44728,"journal":{"name":"COLLEGE LITERATURE","volume":"49 1","pages":"599 - 627"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45775905","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I specifically examine how hooks renders her child protagonist in relation to space. By linking girlhood with the domestic bliss of an intimate Black home, hooks aligns Black childhood with notions of innocence and respatializes Black girlhood, lifting it from real-world invisibility and pejorative notions of Black girlhood. I read Homemade Love in concert with hooks's memoir as well as her other non-fiction essays to reveal a blueprint for her children's book that gestures to the familial homes she encountered in her native Kentucky. Characterized by a love ethic, the quasi-fictional space of Homemade Love provides a kid-friendly theorization of homeplace, grafted onto a child's world. The book expresses hooks's longstanding feminist praxis and issues an unassuming challenge to anti-Blackness and a necessary fictional map of Black girl freedom.","PeriodicalId":44728,"journal":{"name":"COLLEGE LITERATURE","volume":"49 1","pages":"468 - 499"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2022-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47945855","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper argues that Stamped is an antiracist text that raises important, interconnected questions about adaptation, purpose, and audience. Like many history texts about Black experiences in the US such as Julius Lester's To Be a Slave (1968) and James Baldwin's The Fire Next Time (1963), Stamped reveals the line between children's and adult literature is fabricated, as racism is not restricted by age, and racism impacts Blacks and non-blacks across generations. While To Be a Slave and The Fire Next Time are among a number of possible precursors, Stamped aligns with these two nonfiction texts because just as Stamped was written in the wake of the Black Lives Matter movement, the other two were also born out of significant social movements and can be read as antiracist texts. Reynolds's style, storytelling techniques, and formatting transforms Kendi's history book, Stamped from the Beginning, to a text with a broader audience and purpose.","PeriodicalId":44728,"journal":{"name":"COLLEGE LITERATURE","volume":"49 1","pages":"500 - 523"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2022-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46553564","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It provides examples of how the narratives acknowledge Black pain while accentuating Black joy. It focuses on the characters' subversive strategies such as flying or secrecy.
