Marion Sims, considered the “father of modern gynecology,” culminated with his autobiography. Story of My Life signals the interdependency of American medicine and nineteenth-century print culture, which furthered the demand for physicians’ life narratives. Published posthumously in 1884, Sims’s autobiography is informed by abolitionist sensationalism and sentimentality. Though his work depended on the exploitation and labour of enslaved women, Sims represents himself and his patients sentimentally, in ways that dismiss his culpability in the violence of slavery while legitimizing his authorial voice. By examining how medicine and sentiment intersect within Sims’s autobiography, this paper demonstrates how Sims’s performative affect, together with nineteenth-century sexual and racial politics, granted him unmitigated access to enslaved women’s bodies. The rhetoric of sentimentality deployed in Story of My Life functions to secure Sims’s authority and innocence as a benevolent physician, erasing the labour and embodied experience of the enslaved women he experimented on.","PeriodicalId":53953,"journal":{"name":"CANADIAN REVIEW OF AMERICAN STUDIES","volume":" ","pages":"-"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49544155","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

What could be more habitual to scholars in American Studies than the critical assessment of alternatives, real or imagined, under diverse topical or methodological headings? In one form or another, the antithetical categories we designate as alternative and mainstream have figured centrally in American Studies from the field’s institutional beginnings in the late 1950s onwards.

Times crime reporter who covered international crime, co-authored a series of neo-noir crime novels featuring the private-eye narrator Fiddler, an independently wealthy, Newport-based macho man with a moral compass and a shady past from which his wealth is derived, and his partner Fiora, a high-powered Orange County banker who made her way into high finance from a humble midwestern background. While the series's plots and characters follow established genre conventions, the novels' settings cannily spotlight regions and locales relevant to California in which the geopolitical transformations of the later 1980s and early 1990s were concentrated. The upheaval of California's social fabric in places such as the Gold Coast, Orange County, Napa Valley, the Mexican border, and even Santa Fe (Los Angeles's alter ego) provide the background for plots that range from Cold War spies and smugglers to a white-collar breed of criminals such as property development scammers, art forgers, and financial fraudsters, exposing the violent and criminal underbelly of a rapidly globalizing and accelerating economic system in which (some parts of) California played a central role. This article provides a geocritical reading of the mystery series that focuses on its modes of political and social critique of the era of Reaganomics, globalization, and the financialization of property, technology, and culture. The series reveals a sustained engagement with political, social, and cultural upheavals that position these locales as sites of contestation and struggles that are, or turn, violent in a variety of ways.Résumé:Entre 1985 et 1993, Ann Maxwell (alias Elizabeth Lowell) et son époux Evan, un ancien journaliste du Los Angeles Times, spécialisé dans les affaires policières et les crimes internationaux, ont coécrit une série de romans policiers néo-noirs mettant en scène le narrateur et détective privé Fiddler, un macho de Newport, riche et indépendant, doté d'un sens moral et ayant un passé douteux dont il tire sa richesse, et sa partenaire Fiora, une banquière de haut vol du comté d'Orange qui s'est frayée un chemin dans le monde de la haute finance à partir d'un milieu modeste du Midwest. Si les intrigues et les personnages de la série suivent les conventions établies du genre, le cadre des romans met habilement en lumière les régions et les lieux de la Californie où se sont concentrées les transformations géopolitiques de la fin des années 1980 et du début des années 1990. Les bouleversements du tissu social californien dans des régions telles que la Gold Coast, le comté d'Orange, Napa Valley, la frontière mexicaine et même Santa Fe (l'alter ego de Los Angeles) servent de toile de fond à des intrigues qui vont des espions et des contrebandiers de la guerre froide à une race de criminels en col blanc tels que les escrocs de l'immobilier, les faussaires d'œuvres d'art e","PeriodicalId":53953,"journal":{"name":"CANADIAN REVIEW OF AMERICAN STUDIES","volume":"52 1","pages":"190 - 205"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46550931","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The polarization of our time is reflected within Marvel movies as they (conditionally) critique colonialism, imperialism, patriarchy, and greed, only to individualize their (re)solutions. Black Panther (2018) and Captain Marvel (2019) are the focus of this case study due to their appeal beyond even MCU fans and their focus on two forms of oppression that are often represented as dominant structures of our time: white supremacy and patriarchy. The MCU films foreground challenges to dominance in order to neutralize those critiques; the films narrativize liberal triumph by appropriating its opposition. The adaptation of liberalism in the MCU is to make its own critiques visible and then contain them—a double move that accounts for the immense cultural purchase of these films.Résumé:Les films de l'Univers cinématographique Marvel (MCU) permettent de reconnaître les crises dominantes de notre époque, tout en donnant un sens clair du bien et du mal ainsi que de l'idée que le bien l'emportera, le fantasme que quelqu'un viendra nous ramener à la certitude du statu quo libéral imaginé.

In the contexts of the Trump administration's alleged \"fake news\" and \"alternative facts,\" it probes who defines the mainstream, who decides what stories are mainstream (or canonical), whose accounts are more \"authentic\" or \"alternative\" or just plain lies. Adding marginalized people and movements to history destabilizes \"mainstream\" histories distorted by skewed sources, silenced stories, and an assumed historical \"mainstream\" or \"consensus.\" Marginalized actors push the boundaries of national histories that do not easily accommodate multiple actors or perspectives. \"Mainstream\" histories of the nation that focus on public politics and powerful actors can make most people appear insignificant and erase the daily acts and grass-roots movements that change the historical mainstream. From unexamined margins, people start or catalyze social change with daily acts that begin to transform social relationships. Changes born in marginalized borderlands can become mainstream truths.Résumé:Rédigé à titre de discours principal de la conférence de la Canadian Association for American Studies (CAAS) de 2018, le présent article s'appuie sur l'expérience personnelle de l'auteure, un demi-siècle de recherche historique, ainsi que la fiction et l'art américains pour examiner les réalités alternatives et les courants dits dominants américains à partir des frontières et des zones frontalières des relations sociales et des discours américains. Dans le contexte des prétendus « fake news » et des « faits alternatifs » de l'administration Trump, l'auteure cherche à savoir qui définit le courant dominant, qui décide quelles histoires sont grand public (ou canoniques), quels sont les récits les plus « authentiques » ou « alternatifs » ou tout simplement des mensonges. L'ajout de personnes et de mouvements marginalisés à l'histoire déstabilise les histoires « grand public » déformées par des sources biaisées, des histoires réduites au silence et un « courant » ou un « consensus » historique présumé.

However, a brief survey of the history of queer cinema in the United States reveals that, in various forms, this shift has actually been underway for decades. Now that it would appear to be nearly complete, it is important to ask not only what has been gained, but also what might be lost, by this mainstreaming of what had appeared to be a firmly outsider category. This article considers the ramifications of the mainstreaming of American queer cinema, examining the position of several key films within the larger cinematic and social landscape. It argues that divergent political viewpoints on the mainstreaming of queer film can—if not be reconciled—at least work in tandem with one another.Résumé:Depuis 2016, avec la sortie en salle de Moonlight, le long métrage oscarisé de Barry Jenkins, le cinéma queer américain semble avoir connu des changements rapides, voire stupéfiants, passant rapidement de la marge au courant dominant.
