This article first addresses the background of memory books and then analyzes three memory books by one rural Ugandan mother in collaboration with her children. This article is based on six field visits I made between 2008 and 2016, mostly to Tororo, Uganda. I was shown over forty memory books, and interviewed writers, their family members, NGO staff, and community group leaders. Through a close textual analysis of the three memory books, I argue that the memory book represents a new form of family historiography that allows less literate people to speak and be heard.","PeriodicalId":45158,"journal":{"name":"BIOGRAPHY-AN INTERDISCIPLINARY QUARTERLY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43780682","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite the significant roles black women played in the struggle for LGBTQ+ rights in South Africa, only a handful of them have garnered significant attention. Against this backdrop, we examine the contributions of Beverly \"Bev\" Ditsie's quare fashion to the history of South Africa's LGBTQ+ rights movement. We employ biographical research and photo elicitation to uncover Ditsie's identity as a quare, black woman in 1990s South Africa. We situate Ditsie's quare activism within the history of South Africa's LGBTQ+ rights movement through a contextual focus on her dress in the documentary Simon & I. We argue that Ditsie's fashion choices show a confluence of her identities as a black lesbian woman. This study not only enriches local histories in liberation and performance theory, but also presents queer narratives as they may be reflected and reimagined in contemporary fashions (such as Afropunk) in the pursuit of black quare expression.","PeriodicalId":45158,"journal":{"name":"BIOGRAPHY-AN INTERDISCIPLINARY QUARTERLY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46433850","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In doing so, comparisons are made to other biographies and memoirs such as Élisabeth Roudinesco's Jacques Lacan, Catherine Millot's Life with Lacan, and Sibylle Lacan's A Father: Puzzle. A discussion of Lacan's own resistance to biography and the mixed regard in which he held the biographies he read is followed by an explanation of the anti-biographical imperative established by Lacan and adopted by Miller as an unrealizable ideal of the psychoanalytic doctrine's transmission without reference to the person of Lacan. The third section is a reading of Miller's experiment in psychoanalytic life writing as an effort to represent, without resolving, the enigma of desire that Lacan is said to exemplify.","PeriodicalId":45158,"journal":{"name":"BIOGRAPHY-AN INTERDISCIPLINARY QUARTERLY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48740398","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
