Sexuality, community and urban space : An exploration of negotiated senses of communities amongst gay men in Brighton
No full textThis thesis examines the relationships between sexuality, communality and space through the exploration of changing senses of community experienced by gay men in Brighton. A review of changing conceptualisations of sexuality reveals that the formation of sexual identities, communities and urban spaces cannot be reduced to a single historical narrative but are influenced by numerous contextual factors. In response, the thesis develops what is termed a 'negotiative framework' in which the tensions and contradictions associated with these differences can be reconciled with the need for strategic senses of resistance and solidarity. It is argued that Barthes' writings on doxa (systems of repression and control), paradoxa (forces of transgression) and atopia (processes occurring between and beyond these forces) provide such a negotiative framework.Drawing upon evidence from in-depth, qualitative semi-structured interviews with gay men in Brighton, supplemented by group interviews and the analysis of secondary sources of historical documentation, five paths of transgression are observed: the establishment of the early underground scene; the gay political organisations formed in the wake of threats to civil liberties; the responses to HIV and AIDS; the responses to police harassment; and finally the development of the gay commercial scene. The study reveals how sites of both doxa and paradoxa are diverse and spatially and temporally contextual. Exploring changing conceptualisations of community amongst gay men in Brighton illustrated how concepts of atopia can reconcile bounded and boundless conceptions of space.The Barthes-inspired approach of this thesis contributes to post-structuralist and queer theories by relating issues of negotiativity and process in a non-binaristic way to the functioning of systems of restraint and resistance in the context of gay spaces.</p
Favartia massemini Merle & Garrigues 2008, n. sp.
No full textFavartia massemini n. sp. (Fig. 7) TYPE MATERIAL. — N French Guiana. Continental shelf, holotype (Fig. 7), length: 18.5 mm, diameter: 12 mm, (MNHN). TYPE LOCALITY. — N French Guiana. ETYMOLOGY. — Named in honour of David Massemin. DESCRIPTION Protoconch unknown. Biconic shell high of 5 subcarinate whorls (height: 18.5 mm; width: 12 mm). Last whorl (5th whorl) 72% of total length of the teleoconch. Spiral sculpture with thick primary cords. First and 2nd whorls: presence of primary cords P1 and P2. Third whorl: appearance of primary cord IP. Fourth whorl: appearance of secondary cord s2. Fifth whorl: developed IP (sutural ramp), P1 to P5 (convex part of the whorl) atrophied P6, ADP and MP (siphonal canal); secondary cords: s2 more developed than s3 and poorly developed s6. Axial sculpture of imbricate varices. Primary cords spines IP, P1 to P5, ADP and MP slightly developed. Nine varices on 2nd and 3rd whorls, 8 on 4th and 5th whorls. Microsculpture with erected growth laminae, appearing on 4th whorl. Suborbicular aperture 25% of the diameter. Outer lip orthocline, thickened by 8 to 10 growth laminae. Six simple, internal denticles (ID, D1 to D5) which are poorly expressed and slightly extended in the internal part of apertural lip. D6 missing. Shoulder sinus closed by the growth laminae. Parietal lip poorly erected. Columellar lip erected and drawing an inductura. Siphonal canal of 54% of aperture length. Pseudombilicus large.Shell rosy with brown varices. Animal and radula unknown. INTERSPECIFIC COMPARISONS Favartia massemini n. sp. may be compared to other close species as F. cellusosa (Conrad, 1846) (Florida, North Caribbean), F.nucea (Mörch, 1850) (Florida, South Caribbean), F. coltrorum Houart, 2005 (Brazil, Guadeloupe), F. lindae Petuch, 1987 (Florida) and F. pacei Petuch, 1988 (Florida) (Rios 1985; Petuch 1987; Vokes 1994; Houart 2005). Favartia massemini n. sp. differs from these species in having a shell with more spiny varices, by a more marked shoulder and by a longer siphonal canal. Favartia cellulosa, F. nucea and F. lindae have a more developed s2 (almost of the same thickness as the primary cords). Their growth laminae are more numerous, particularly in the intervarical spaces. The teleoconch whorls of F.pacei are slightly more carinate than in the other species, because of a spiny P1. It differs from F. massemini n. sp. by the lack of other developed cord spines. Favartia coltrorum lacks secondary cords. Favartia massemini n. sp. may be also compared to Murexiella glypa (Smith, 1938) from Brazil (= F. iemanja Petuch, 1979) and from the Plio-Pleistocene of Florida (Vokes 1994). The spire of M. glypta is, however, longer and its cords are always more marked in the intervarical spaces. These last observations show that it is difficult to practically distinguish the genera Favartia and Murexiella Clench & Pérez Farfante, 1945 (type species Murex hidalgoi Crosse, 1869 by original designation), which are very closely related (Merle 2002).Published as part of Merle, Didier & Garrigues, Bernard, 2008, New muricid species (Mollusca, Gastropoda) from French Guiana, pp. 517-526 in Zoosystema 30 (2) on page 524, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.539079
