Crossing the Human: Posthumanist Deviations in Cormac McCarthy’s The Border Trilogy

Creator:

Johnson, Anthony

Abstract:

This thesis argues that the first two novels of Cormac McCarthy’s The Border Trilogy mark a sharp turn from the antihumanism of his earlier ‘Southern’ novels to a more affective exploration of posthumanist subjectivity within a world dominated by social discourse and metanarratives. In my examination of All the Pretty...

"Pretty When You Cry": Feminine Melancholia in the Age of Social Media

Creator:

Hurwitz, Madeline

Abstract:

This thesis examines the internet phenomenon of the “Sad Girl,” a name given to young women who identify and present themselves as inherently melancholic people online. I position the internet community of the Sad Girl, which spans across three social media platforms, Tumblr, TikTok, and Instagram, within a larger history...

Feminized in Form, Non-Linear in Practice: Diaspora in Asian American Poetics

Creator:

Norris, Precious

Abstract:

Asian American poetry is often considered a subcategory of poetry centered on the poets’ backgrounds. However, this project engages with the complexity of Asian American identity and experience as they trickle down from the poets, to their works, to interpretations of their art. Thus, I contend that these poets’ engagement...

Our “dead keep up the simple habits of the living”: Queer Digital Ephemerality in the Victorian Roman à Clef

Creator:

Snyder, Christin

Abstract:

Many queer scholars have made the turn away from orientations that treat Victorian queerness as either “lost” or “hidden.” Adding more complexity to literary theories which center practices of “revealing” queer artifacts, Sharon Marcus, for instance, argues queer encounters exist at the surfaces of Victorian literature. In addition, Anjali Arondekar’s...

Cascadia’s cold war : Malamud’s novel, A New Life, and OSU’s Liberal Arts at the midcentury

Creator:

Sal, K. Sukhjot

Abstract:

This thesis will compare former OSU Professor Bernard Malamud’s life in Corvallis through primary sources and documents with his parallel experience in his 1961 novel A New Life. A close examination of Malamud’s literature and investigation of his life at OSU exposes an uneven balance between academic censorship and the...

Flesh & Blood is a 118-page horror-drama screenplay about a single mother struggling to control her cannibalistic urges while caring for her young daughter and evading an increasingly suspicious detective.

“I Can’t Believe I’m Marching for Reality”: Examining the Rhetorical Role of Science in the “Post-Truth” Era

Creator:

Baker, Carlee A.

Abstract:

In the months preceding the 2016 presidential election and during the Trump presidency, rhetoric, composition, and communications scholars expressed an urgent concern about the threat that Trump and his political affiliates posed to the status of truth in political life (McComiskey; Rice; Harsin; Cloud). However, the conversations surrounding the discipline’s...

Masters Thesis
Feedback as Critical Care: An Antiracist, Feminist Praxis for Composition

Creator:

Rowland, Olivia A.

Abstract:

Feminist compositionists have long argued for addressing the feminization of composition, or its association with low value “women’s work,” by revaluing caring labor (Enos; Heinert and Phillips; Tuell). However, this argument assumes that writing teachers’ care work is beneficial for all students and teachers. Focusing on responding to student writing...

Masters Thesis
In the Margins of Representation: A Critique of Plascencia's The People of Paper

Creator:

Turk, Tully

Abstract:

This thesis explores the common features that unite postcolonial and posthumanist theories, finding that the Cartesian notion of representationalism has enabled the humanist hierarchy that both fields decry. This humanist hierarchy coalesces in the figure of the author, and as such its most effective criticism takes the form of metafiction....

Furthering Rhetorical Genre Studies Within the Context of Identity and Transfer in First Year Composition

Creator:

Alfaqih, Jessica

Abstract:

Within composition studies, rhetorical genre studies (RGS) and labor-based grading (LBG) are engaged in similar projects that consider students not only as individuals but also as always part of a community; as such, both have worked to understand how students learn, how students value themselves and their work, and how...
