"The circumscribed geography of home": Island identity in the fiction of Alistair MacLeod and Wayne Johnston
No full textThis thesis addresses issues of islandness and island identity in the fiction of Cape Breton's
Alistair MacLeod and Newfoundland's Wayne Johnston. Through careful readings of their
fiction, with supplementary evidence culled from biographical and secondary sources, the thesis
shows that their work is profoundly influenced by their childhood experiences; that these authors
have been "imprinted" by growing up on an island; and that, as a result, both authors bear a
strong island identity which inspires and infuses their writings. The thesis opens by introducing
themes that pervade islandness, and proceeds to set MacLeod's and Johnston's fiction in the
context of the western traditions of island and regionalist literature, followed by a discussion of
how identity is formulated. In three chapters the thesis explores the theme of boundedness:
physically or geographically, in the ways that the ocean's boundary defines a character, as
evidenced primarily in Johnston’s The Colony of Unrequited Dreams and MacLeod’s "Island";
psychologically, in the ways that childhood and family affect an individual growing up on an
island, as evidenced primarily in Johnston's The Story of Bobby O’Malley and MacLeod’s "The
Boat" and "The Lost Salt Gift of Blood"; and emotionally, in the ways that social influences
affect feelings of belonging and exile, as evidenced primarily in Johnston’s The Custodian of
Paradise and MacLeod’s No Great Mischief. The thesis concludes with a reaffirmation of the
influence of islandness and island identity in the fiction of Alistair MacLeod and Wayne
Johnston
Production of eukaryotic cell-free lysate from Leishmania tarentolae
No full textIn this chapter, we describe the production and application of a eukaryotic cell-free expression system based on Leishmania tarentolae. This single-celled flagellate allows straightforward and inexpensive cultivation in flasks or bioreactors. Unlike many other Leishmania species, it is nonpathogenic to humans and does not require special laboratory precautions. An additional reason it is a convenient source organism for cell-free lysate production is that all endogenous protein expression can be suppressed by a single antisense oligonucleotide targeting splice leader sequence on the 5'-end of all protein coding RNAs. We describe simple procedures for cell disruption and lysate processing starting from bioreactor culture. We also describe introduction of genetic information via vectors containing species-independent translation initiation sites (SITS). We consider that such an inexpensive eukaryotic cell-free production system has many advantages when expressing multi-subunit proteins or difficult to express proteins
