Rewriting history : postmodern and postcolonial negotiations in the fiction of J.G. Farrell, Timothy Mo, Kazuo Ishiguro and Salman Rushdie
No full textThis thesis is a study of the rewriting of history in the work of four novelists: J. G. Farrell, Timothy Mo, Kazuo Ishiguro and Salman Rushdie. I argue that their work occupies a particular position that is both within contemporary British fiction, yet at one remove from it.
Their work is situated within the context of critiques of history that are the source of a conflict between postmodernism and postcolonialism. I suggest that each writer engages with postmodemist aesthetics often in an attempt to produce critical histones that bear witness to the voices of those hitherto silenced in conventional historiography. However, these novelists remain anxious as to the potential consequences of mobilising postmodernist models of history, particularly as to the problems this creates concerning historical reference. The thesis aims to
identify the range of related attitudes to postmodernist critiques of history at this particular juncture of contemporary fiction in English.
I approach the specific position of the novelists under study through Homi Bhabha's work on the confluence of the postmodern and the postcolonial, focusing in particular on his suggestion that the postmodem refutation of Western epistemology enables a postcolonial space where a new range of histories emerge. Because each writer works between at least two cultures, and primarily within Britain, they negotiate from within received epistemology in an attempt to locate a space at its boundaries where conventional forms of knowledge no longer have efficacy. However, in contrast to Bhabha, these writers struggle to reach this space and remain sceptical as to the usefulness of postmodernism in making available new forms of
historiography. Ultimately, their work enables a critique of current ways of theorising the relationship between the postmodem and the postcolonial in literary studies

Functional differences between type 1 and type 2 Epstein-Barr virus EBNA-2
No full textEpstein-Barr virus (EBV) establishes a lifelong latent infection in the human host. In vitro EBV
immortalises primary B lymphocytes giving rise to latently infected lymphoblastoid cell lines
(LCLs). EBV strains are classified as type 1 or type 2 according to the sequence of the EBNA-2
gene, which expresses a transcription factor that induces viral and cell genes important for B cell
proliferation. Type 1 EBV transforms primary B lymphocytes into LCLs much more efficiently
than type 2 EBV, a difference previously mapped to the EBNA-2 locus.
In this study, the greater transforming activity of type 1 EBV was found to correlate with a
stronger and more rapid induction of the viral oncogene LMP-1 and the cell gene CXCR7 (which
are both required for proliferation of EBV-LCLs) during infection of primary B cells with EBVBAC
recombinant viruses. The enhanced ability of type 1 EBNA-2 to induce LMP-1 and
CXCR7 genes was also confirmed in Burkitt’s Lymphoma cell lines.
Although the major sequence differences between type 1 and type 2 EBNA-2 lie in N-terminal
parts of the protein, the superior ability of type 1 EBNA-2 to sustain proliferation of EBV-LCLs
is mostly determined by the C-terminal region of the protein. Substitution of the C-terminal third
of type 1 EBNA-2 into the type 2 protein is sufficient to confer type 1 growth phenotype and
type 1 expression levels of LMP-1 and CXCR7 in an EREB2.5 cell growth assay. Within this
region, the RG, CR7 and TAD domains are the minimum type 1 sequences required. Sequencing
the C-terminal part of EBNA-2 from additional EBV isolates showed high sequence identity
within type 1 isolates or within type 2 isolates, indicating that the functional differences mapped
are typical of EBV type sequences
