This paper examines intellectual interchanges between European theorists in the science of man and sailors, naturalists and artists on scientific voyages in Oceania during the century after 1750. I argue that travellers' narratives and ethnographic representations were not mere reflexes of dominant metropolitan discourses, but were also personal productions generated in the tensions and ambiguities of cross-cultural encounters. I identify countersigns of indigenous agency embedded in such materials and evaluate their trajectory from the interactions which provoked them, through varied genres and media of voyagers' representations, to their contorted appropriation by European savants. My examples are drawn from British and French accounts of visits to New Holland and Van Diemen's Land between 1770 and 1802. In this paper, Aboriginal Australians, especially Tasmanians, serve as synecdoche for the indigenous inhabitants of Oceania generally, using the regional term in its extended early 19th-century sense wh...

Between 1782 and 1812, Kamehameha I conquered and unified the Hawaiian Islands. This process was unprecedented in Hawaii and coincided with increasing European contact, prompting many to attribute his success to European weapons and ideas. Those studying chiefly power in pre-unification Hawaii emphasise economic and ideological factors and fail to examine coercive capabilities in any detail, as well as the specifics of time and place. The approaches of other disciplines offer new perspectives. European military historians' emphasis on the importance of logistical, organisational and psychological factors calls for a re-evaluation of the significance of European weaponry and mercenaries in Kamehameha's wars of unification. He gained victory because his opponents overextended themselves logistically, and were weakened by internal divisions at crucial times. Military victory alone was not enough to secure power. Kamehameha also mastered the art of building and maintaining coalitions. Demilitarisation of the islands was central to the unification process. 93 D'Arcy, 'Maori and muskets'.

In A Feminine Cinematics: Luce Irigaray, Women, and Film, Caroline Bainbridge sets up the difficult task of trying to bridge the gap between theory and praxis. As she elucidates at the beginning of her text, film theorists have recently begun inquiring about the intersection between gender and spectatorship. Bainbridge acknowledges that many feminist film theorists have opted to utilize the work of feminist theory as a way to both reconceptualize film theory and open up new dialogues within the realm of cinema. However, she argues that some feminist theorists, whose works have been cited time and again in various other disciplines, still remain unrecognized in relation to cinema. As such, their theories, which often parallel discussions within feminist film studies, are neglected. For Bainbridge, one such theorist is Luce Irigaray. With this in mind, Bainbridge’s main aim is to connect Irigaray’s theories and feminist film theory. From the start, she recognizes the potential of Irigaray’s work for reconceptualizing notions of authorship, representation, and spectatorship in film studies. Taking women’s cinema as her backdrop, Bainbridge does a commendable job of working through the theorist’s complex concepts. As those who are familiar with Irigaray’s writing already know, this is not an easy task, as the feminist philosopher is distinguished for her complicated prose and style of writing. The logical structure of the book aids Bainbridge in guiding readers throughout the chapters. Upon explicating her aim and impetus in the introduction, she uses the first chapter to discuss Irigaray’s concepts. From there, she details important dialogues occurring within feminist film theory. Bainbridge then utilizes the next two chapters to demonstrate how some films (unknowingly) centralize and elucidate Irigarayan concepts. This approach is a crucial one, as it allows readers to get their feet wet before jumping into the denser waters of an Irigarayan analysis. Once this is accomplished, Bainbridge analyzes two filmic texts, Sally Potter’s Orlando (1992) and Jane Campion’s The Piano (1993). Bainbridge pushes readers through her utilization of Irigaray’s work to reconceptualize how ‘‘the feminine’’ is represented in cinema. Some of the Irigarayan concepts and notions that she assesses include the following: female genealogy, mediation, parler femme, sexual difference, and specula(riza)tion. Her application of these theories to various films, such as Moufida Tlatli’s The Silences of the Palace (1994), Liv Ullmann’s Faithless (2000), and Marleen Gorris’s Antonia’s Line Women’s Studies in Communication, 34:104–109, 2011 Copyright # The Organization for Research on Women and Communication ISSN: 0749-1409 print=2152-999X online DOI: 10.1080/07491409.2011.566534
玛丽卡·西格尔(Marika Seigel)在《怀孕的修辞》一书的开头,叙述了她不愉快而又恐惧的怀孕和第一个孩子的出生。她将自己的许多不利经历归因于她所读的怀孕手册,她解释说:“就在我开始对怀孕手册产生个人兴趣的时候,我也开始对它们产生学术兴趣”(第15页)。西格尔是密歇根理工大学修辞学和技术传播学副教授,她利用自己在修辞学方面的专业知识来理解为什么她最初与怀孕手册的互动是消极的。这本书不仅试图理解当前的怀孕手册,还试图理解当今产前系统的历史(“我们是怎么走到这一步的?(第14页),Seigel的作品阐明了孕妇的主体地位是如何通过怀孕手册的修辞来表达的,以及生产“正常”婴儿的目标是如何将怀孕的身体塑造成危险的、需要纪律的。Seigel这本书的目的是描述怀孕手册是如何教导用户功能性地参与产前护理系统,而不是批判性地参与,同时也展示了这种趋势如何能够(也应该)被打断。她认为,这个项目不仅有助于分析手册等技术交流,而且对孕妇、医生和活动家也有实质性的影响。她对关键访问与功能访问的强调来自亚当·班克斯对“有意义的技术访问”的理论理解(第3页)。她解释说,班克斯认为个人的物质、社会、文化和政治需求必须通过四种类型的访问来满足:对技术的物质访问,向人们提供如何使用技术的知识的功能访问,允许用户访问技术的体验访问,以及允许用户批判性地评估是否以及何时使用技术的关键访问。虽然班克斯指的是数字技术,但Seigel认为他的概念也适用于“产前护理的技术系统”,其中包括孕妇、胎儿、超声波、羊膜穿刺术和血液检查等工具(第10页)。西格尔认为,这种对技术和途径的理解,让我们了解了怀孕说明是如何被阐明的,以及可能以不同的方式阐明的——这是她的书的最终目标。事实上,她断言,如果她有关键的机会接触到“产前护理的医疗技术系统”,她的第一次分娩和分娩经历可能会好得多(第3页)。第二章介绍了Seigel的理论框架和分析方法,并为每一个都提供了令人信服的理由。她解释了她个人的挫折,《女性传播研究》,38:118-124,2015版权# The Organization for Research on Women and Communication ISSN: 0749-1409 print=2152-999X online DOI: 10.1080/07491409.2014.998586
