    No full text
    Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão. Programa de Pós-Graduação em Letras/Inglês e Literatura CorrespondenteThis is an intertextual reading of texts by Elizabeth Bishop and texts by Carlos Drummond de Andrade, João Cabral de Melo Neto, Manuel Bandeira, Vinicius de Moraes, and Clarice Lispector, based on Mikhail M. Bakhtin's notion that juxtaposing texts may establish semantic dialogues between them, even if they are not apparently related. The first chapter shows that in some poems by Bishop and Drummond, encounters of the narrator with animals and paupers represent the act of becoming increasingly aware of the world and of the limits of one's own perception; then the first chapter moves to Bishop's translation of Cabral's poem "Morte e Vida Severina" and to her own ballad "The Burglar of Babylon," analyzing how these works are related in theme-the life of poor migrants-and how they differ. The second chapter deals with the perception of intimacy and private life in some texts by Bishop, Bandeira, Vinicius, and Clarice, showing that in the selected poems by Vinicius and Bandeira intimacy is associated to loneliness, while in Bishop and Clarice the presence of other people is taken in consideration but intimacy itself seems frail and unstable. Esta é uma leitura intertextual de textos de Elizabeth Bishop e de textos de Carlos Drummond de Andrade, João Cabral de Melo Neto, Manuel Bandeira, Vinicius de Moraes e Clarice Lispector, baseado na idéia de Mikhail M. Bakhtin segundo a qual a justaposição de textos aparentemente sem relação uns com os outros pode estabelecer diálogos semânticos entre eles. O primeiro capítulo mostra que em determinados poemas de Bishop e Drummond, encontros do narrador com animais e com pobres representa uma evolução de sua percepção sobre o mundo e sobre os limites de sua própria consciência; em seguida o primeiro capítulo passa à tradução de Bishop para o poema "Morte e Vida Severina" de Cabral e à balada "The Burglar of Babylon", analisando como essas obras se relacionam quanto ao assunto (a vida de imigrantes miseráveis) e como diferem. O segundo capítulo trata do tema da intimidade em textos de Bishop, Bandeira, Vinicius e Clarice, apontando que os poemas selecionados de Vinicius e Bandeira mostram intimidade associada à solidão, ao passo que nos textos de Bishop e Clarice as demais pessoas são levadas em conta, mas a intimidade em si parece frágil e instável

    RoMEO Studies 6: Rights metadata for open-archiving

    No full text
    This is the final study in a series of six emanating from the UK JISC-funded RoMEO Project (Rights Metadata for Open-archiving) which investigated the Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) issues relating to academic author self-archiving of research papers. It reports the results of a survey of 542 academic authors showing the level of protection required for their open-access research papers. It then describes the selection of an appropriate means of expressing those rights through metadata and the resulting choice of Creative Commons licences. Finally it outlines proposals for communicating rights metadata via the Open Archives Initiative’s Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH)

    RoMEO Studies 2: How academics wish to protect their open-access research paper

    No full text
    This paper is the second in a series of studies (see Gadd, E., C. Oppenheim, and S. Probets. RoMEO Studies 1: The impact of copyright ownership on author-self-archiving. Journal of Documentation. 59(3) 243-277) emanating from the UK JISC-funded RoMEO Project (Rights Metadata for Open-archiving). It considers the protection for research papers afforded by UK copyright law, and by e-journal licences. It compares this with the protection required by academic authors for open-access research papers as discovered by the RoMEO academic author survey. The survey used the Open Digital Rights Language (ODRL) as a framework for collecting views from 542 academics as to the permissions, restrictions, and conditions they wanted to assert over their works. Responses from self-archivers and non-archivers are compared. Concludes that most academic authors are primarily interested in preserving their moral rights, and that the protection offered research papers by copyright law is way in excess of that required by most academics. It also raises concerns about the level of protection enforced by e-journal licence agreement

    RoMEO Studies 5: IPR issues for OAI Data and Service Providers

    No full text
    This paper is the fifth in a series of studies emanating from the UK JISC-funded RoMEO Project (Rights Metadata for Open-archiving). It reports the results of two surveys of OAI Data Providers (DPs) and Service Providers (SPs) with regards to the rights issues they face. It finds that very few DPs have rights agreements with depositing authors and that there is no standard approach to the creation of rights metadata. The paper considers the rights protection afforded individual and collections of metadata records under UK Law and contrasts this with DP and SP’s views on the rights status of metadata and how they wish to protect it. The majority of DP and SPs believe that a standard way of describing both the rights status of documents and of metadata would be usefu

    RoMEO Studies 4: An analysis of Journal publishers' Copyright Agreements

    This article is the fourth in a series of six emanating from the UK JISC-funded RoMEO Project (Rights Metadata for Open archiving). It describes an analysis of 80 scholarly journal publishers’ copyright agreements with a particular view to their effect on author self-archiving. 90% of agreements asked for copyright transfer and 69% asked for it prior to refereeing the paper. 75% asked authors to warrant that their work had not been previously published although only two explicitly stated that they viewed self-archiving as prior publication. 28.5% of agreements provided authors with no usage rights over their own paper. Although 42.5% allowed self-archiving in some format, there was no consensus on the conditions under which self-archiving could take place. The article concludes that author-publisher copyright agreements should be reconsidered by a working party representing the needs of both partie

    Tudor women writers fashioning masculinity

    No full text
    This thesis contributes to the growing interest in early modern masculinity and its literary representations by introducing texts by women writers into dialogue with their male-authored counterparts. It argues for a more nuanced approach that recognises that the concepts of masculinity and femininity can only be fully understood when studied in relation with each other. The first chapter explores how, notwithstanding the wisdom of conduct books and marriage guides, the demands of the state may not always be commensurate with those of the domestic realm and shows that this conflict necessitates a rethinking of existing definitions of masculinity by focusing on selected writings of the Tudor sisters Mary and Elizabeth and Jane Fitzalan’s *Tragedie of Iphigeneia*. The second chapter identifies how Elizabeth’s unique discursive strategies were designed to elicit support from her male subjects and subdue the belligerence that simmered under polemic like John Stubbs’ *Gaping Gulf*. In her letters to Anjou, the chapter examines how Elizabeth manoeuvred around her position as a beloved and as a monarch to fashion a husband who would not only be sympathetic but also subordinate to her political authority. This chapter also shows how the fabulous world of John Lyly’s *Galatea* consummates the Queen’s desire for the ideal male subject. The final chapter investigates the construction of martial manhood. It juxtaposes Mary Sidney’s *The Tragedy of Antonie* with William Shakespeare’s *Antony and Cleopatra* to determine how the figure of Cleopatra, common to both plays, challenges and revises the martial code of masculinity as embodied by Antony. By examining the authorial position appropriated by Cleopatra in the plays and its impact on the narrative, this chapter also extends this thesis’ interest in the extent to which female characters within texts compete for diegetic control with male protagonists

    © 2017, © The Author(s) 2017. This article is an interview with Elizabeth Grosz by Kathryn Yusoff and Nigel Clark. It primarily addresses Grosz’s approaches to ‘geopower’, and the discussion encompasses an exploration of her ideas on biopolitics, inhuman forces and material experimentation. Grosz describes geopower as a force that subtends the possibility of politics. The interview is accompanied by a brief contextualizing introduction examining the themes of geophilosophy and the inhumanities in Grosz’s work
