Hannah Dustan: A seventeenth-century text still in progress
Get PDFThis thesis traces the path of Hannah Dustan\u27s story of captivity from its first appearance in the seventeenth century through today and explores the cultural history and significance behind her story. Dustan\u27s story of her capture and bloody escape from the Abenaki tribe was first told by Puritan minister Cotton Mather, in his 1697 sermon Humiliations Follow \u27d with Deliverance. Incorporating captivity narratives into sermons was not atypical, but it may surprise modem readers to find a story with a protagonist who commits murder in a sermon about humiliation. By examining primary documents and exploring the history of the captivity narrative genre, I explain how this is not only possible, but would have made perfect sense to its contemporary readers.
Dustan\u27s story takes on new life in the nineteenth century as a new generation of readers is exposed to her story. Curiously readers are no longer reading Mather\u27s version of the story, but a series of versions re-written and re-imagined by contemporary writers. Writers likeTimothy Dwight, B.L. Mirick, John Greenleaf Whittier, Sarah J. Hale and Nathaniel Hawthorne all compose their own version of the story. With the shift in moral ideals and the changing views on motherhood, children, and Native Americans, the nineteenth-century writers have a whole new set of problems to grapple with when telling Dustan\u27s story, and feel the need to adapt her character and her actions to make them a better fit for their audience. Originally written during a time of war and intense racial conflict, the story was clearer in the seventeenth century. By the nineteenth, with the Indian Wars in the past, readers were not as easily able to relate to the sense of life-and-death conflict so central to earlier readers\u27 understanding of the text. In order to write about Dustan and make her story make sense, the story and its heroine had to be revised to fit the current issues and concerns. In this paper I present the ways that some authors tried to manipulate Dustan into a suitable heroine that could agree with nineteenth century ideals.
Visually, Dustan\u27s image is presented and preserved in the two statues that have been erected in her honor. Created in the nineteenth century, these statues tell a similar version of Dustan\u27 s story as the texts written about her at that time. They continue to intrigue us, however, and one is the model for a bobblehead doll, created by the state of New Hampshire in 2008. The nineteenth-century writers established a pattern of reinterpretation that continues to re-shape the story today. Dustan\u27s story is currently being re-hashed by yet another generation, whose view of her is complicated by their own values

Hannah Dustan: els mites culturals femenins i la construcció de la nació nord-americana
Get PDFEl 15 de març de 1697, Hanna Dustan va ser capturada per indis abenaki i, pocs dies després, va assassinar els seus raptors i els va arrencar les cabelleres. Aquest legendari episodi ha estat recreat en nombroses ocasions per historiadors, cronistes i escriptors. L’estudi d’aquests documents ens permetrà analitzar les estratègies retòriques que va usar l’estament patriarcal, i la seva ideologia imperialista, per a construir un determinat concepte de nació mitjançant l’apropiació del cos femení i de les seves actuacions.On March 15, 1697, Hannah Dustan was captured by Abenaki Indians. A few days later, she killed their captors and scalped them. This legendary episode has been retold a number of times by historians, chroniclers and writers. The study of some of these documents will allow us to analyze the rhetorical strategies employed by the patriarchal hierarchy and their imperialist ideology to build a certain concept of nation through the appropriation of the female body and its performances.El 15 de marzo de 1697, Hannah Dustan fue capturada por indios abenakis y, pocos días después, asesinó a sus captores y les arrancó la cabellera.

Personne n’a dit que Guillaume Dustan était un intellectuel, ou les raisons d’un échec
Get PDFGuillaume Dustan (1965-2005), écrivain homosexuel français, est progressivement venu dans ses écrits au militantisme. Celui-ci fut d’abord gay dans Nicolas Pages (1999), pour ensuite se muer, avec Génie divin (2001), en une défense du libre-arbitre adressée à la société dans son ensemble. On se propose de retracer ce parcours singulier et d’expliquer les raisons de l’échec de ce militantisme à l’aide de la sociologie des champs et de la sociopoétique.AbstractThe French gay writer Guillaume Dustan became gradually a militant in his books. Activist for gays rights with Nicolas Pages (1999), he changed himself to free-will-defender against society with Génie divin (2001). Fields sociology and sociopoetics will enable to show this singular way and to explain why this militantism fails
