Art, Biography, Sexuality: Patrick Procktor and Keith Vaughan
No full textThis critical review forms a reflection on the research published within the following publications:
Patrick Procktor: Art and Life (Unicorn Press, 2010)
Keith Vaughan: The Mature Oils 1946-1977, (Sansom & Co., 2012)
The research is on two artists, Patrick Procktor (1936-2003), and Keith Vaughan (1912-1977). The monograph on Procktor – previously one of the least documented of the generation of artists who came to prominence in London in the Sixties – positions him in a history of art from which he had been notably absent. The research on Vaughan asserts a new reading of his work, one that is both deeper and more nuanced in its analysis of the ways in which personal experience and sexuality are encoded autobiographically within his work. Crucially, in both artists biography and work are symbiotically linked; the research therefore examines the links between life and art.
Revisionary in intent, the work examines trajectories of experience of gay British (or rather, English) artists in the twentieth century, artists who sought to express themselves and forge careers within the constraints of a heteronormative society, albeit one in which attitudes to sexuality were undergoing change. As gay men, both were constrained by the social mores of their times, and each used painting as a means to affirm personal and sexual identities. A key research interest is in the ways in which sexuality and persona are reflected in critical responses to the artist’s work: in Vaughan, Procktor and other gay male artists of the period. The writing on both Procktor and Vaughan examines the relationship between their personal and professional/artistic lives, framed within a broader socio-political and art historical context. It asserts the place of biography as a means to understand and form new readings of the work. The work adds substantially to the literature and wider discourse on post-war British painting and social history

Patrick Chamoiseau Recovering Memory
No full textThis timely new book skillfully examines the work of the award-winning writer Patrick Chamoiseau. Considered by many as one of the most innovative writers to hit the French literary scene in over 40 years, Chamoiseau made his name with his book Texaco (published in 1992 and winner of the highest literary prize in France, the Prix Goncourt). His books have gone on to sell millions and his work has been translated by a number of academic presses. McCusker sets the author in context, providing a valuable contribution to 'memory studies' by looking at literary representation of memory in Martinique, a society founded on slavery but now politically assimilated to the metropolitan centre, France.Title Page -- Contents -- Introduction -- 1: Beginnings: The Enigma of Origin -- 2: 'Une tracée de survie': Autobiographical Memory -- 3: Memory Re-collected: Witnesses and Words -- 4: Memory Materialized: Traces of the Past -- 5: Flesh Made Word: Traumatic Memory in Biblique des derniers gestes -- Afterword -- Notes -- Bibliography -- IndexThis timely new book skillfully examines the work of the award-winning writer Patrick Chamoiseau.

Patrick Gale, Author.
Patrick Gale was born on the Isle of Wight in 1962, where his father was prison governor at Camp Hill prison. Later the family moved to London. He boarded at The Pilgrim's School, where he was a chorister, then went to Winchester College before reading English at Oxford University. He did a series of odd jobs to support his writing before becoming a full-time novelist, moving to Cornwall in 1987. He is the author of several novels, and also writes short stories and novellas. He has written one book of non-fiction, on the American novelist Armistead Maupin, and also writes book reviews for The Daily Telegraph.
His first two novels, Ease and The Aerodynamics of Pork, were published on the same day in 1986. The Facts of Life (1995) tells the story of Edward Pepper, an exile saved from Nazi Germany in the Kindertransport, and Tree Surgery for Beginners (1998) is about Laurence Frost, an inarticulate tree surgeon. A Sweet Obscurity (2003) is told from the alternating viewpoints of four separate characters. Friendly Fire (2003) draws on the author's own experience of a late 1970s adolescence, and Notes from an Exhibition (2007) is set in Cornwall, exploring the effects of mental illness on artist Rachel Kelly and her family.

Memorial de Maria Moura em dupla poética de olhar: do romance de Rachel de Queiroz à minissérie de televisão
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão. Programa de Pós-Graduação em Literatura.O referido estudo tem como objeto uma manifestação particular de intertextualidade que se faz pela transposição de um sistema de linguagem característico da expressão literária, um romance, para outro característico da expressão televisual, uma minissérie de televisão. Assim, o corpus da pesquisa e das leituras procedidas configura duas matérias de substancial diferença: uma é produto de uma arte que se utiliza da palavra, e a outra, de imagens e sons. Para perfazer esse corpus, a dissertação em foco procede a um duplo olhar sobre a narrativa de Memorial de Maria Moura, o romance e sua adaptação para a televisão, revestindo de três faces o objeto de estudo: o texto original, de Rachel de Queiroz; o roteiro de adaptação, de Jorge Furtado e Carlos Gerbase; e a produção televisual, da Rede Globo de Televisão, em recorte da performance da personagem Maria Moura. Configura-se dessa forma uma dupla vertente de leitura que aborda, primeiro, o processo de adaptação do romance ao roteiro e, depois, o recorte da construção da personagem no romance e na minissérie. Como etapas da tarefa de cumprir esse objetivo geral, o estudo assume na qualidade de objetivos complementares a leitura do romance e sua contextualização, em relação aos demais romances da escritora, e à historiografia e à crítica literárias brasileiras; leitura do roteiro de adaptação; fundamentação teórica da adaptação referida e contextualização da teleficção na televisão brasileira; e as leituras da construção da personagem Maria Moura, no romance, e da performance, na televisão, de acordo com a versão apresentada pela emissora em 94. Entre os resultados obtidos a partir da pesquisa e das leituras realizadas, a referida dissertação considera que a transposição de linguagem do romance à minissérie justifica a rubrica adaptação, ainda que estabeleça ora aproximações, ora distanciamentos entre as duas obras, os quais são objeto de leitura conclusiva
