   Abstract = {Taking its cue from a resonant passage in Stanley Cavell’s
             The Claim of Reason, this essay reflects on the necessity of
             the figure of the child for Cavell’s philosophy and for
             his understanding of the differences between Austinian and
             Wittgensteinian criteria. It develops the difference between
             instruction and initiation by meditating on how we learn the
             words for love. Finally, I examine briefly the figure of the
             boy Mamillius, son of the skeptic Leontes, in William
             Shakespeare’s The Winter’s Tale, whom Cavell first
             noticed as central to the play’s energies.},

%% D'Alessandro, Michael F   
@article{fds366560,
   Author = {D'Alessandro, M},
   Title = {At-Home Humbugs: Freaks and Fakes in the Nineteenth-Century
             Parlor Museum},
   Journal = {Theatre Survey},
   Volume = {63},
   Number = {1},
   Pages = {3-33},
   Publisher = {Cambridge University Press (CUP)},
   Year = {2022},
   Month = {January},

   Abstract = {<jats:p>In April 1885, a <jats:italic>New York
             Herald</jats:italic> journalist rushed to Madison Square
             Garden for a special reception highlighting Jo-Jo, the
             Dog-Faced Boy. A feature of P. T. Barnum's traveling show,
             Jo-Jo was confounding scientists who had requested a
             stand-alone inspection of the mysterious attraction.
             Accordingly, the reporter provided an anthropological
             description of the boy: “He stands about five feet high. .
             . . His whole body is covered by a very thick growth of
             long, tow colored hair . . . and the peculiar formation of
             his head [is] very suggestive of the Russian dachshund.”
             At first, Jo-Jo appeared docile, but as the scientists
             prodded him more and more, he started “snarling, showing
             his three canine teeth” and asked his guardian if he could
             bite the inspectors. Jo-Jo was decidedly not a dog-boy, or
             not exactly. He was, in fact, a Russian teenager suffering
             from hypertrichosis, a condition causing excessive hair
             growth all over the body, including nearly every surface
             area of the face. Barnum had signed him to perform a year
             earlier, and the boy made quite an auspicious debut.
             However, Jo-Jo was simply the latest in a long line of
             supposed hybrid species and exotic curiosities that Barnum
             had been displaying since midcentury. The famed showman
             built his name in part by presenting human creation itself
             as a continual spectrum. Barnum's attractions ranged from
             live tigers and giraffes to enigmatic simian performers to
             wax statues of America's degraded lower classes. As much of
             a draw as he became, even Jo-Jo had to share a bill with
             Tattooed Hindoo Dwarfs, Hungarian Gypsies, Buddhist Priests,
             as well as a menagerie of animals including baby elephants,
             kangaroos, lions, and twenty-foot-long “great sinewy
             serpents.” But Jo-Jo's specific appeal was tied to his
             inexplicability. Even given the closer inspection of the
             dog-faced boy, “none of the physicians present would
             hazard an opinion as to his ancestry.”</jats:p>},

   Pages = {1-417},

   Abstract = {Medical Humanities may be broadly conceptualized as a
             discipline wherein medicine and its specialties intersect
             with those of the humanities and social sciences. As such it
             is a hybrid area of study where the impact of disease and
             healing science on culture is assessed and expressed in the
             particular language of the disciplines concerned with the
             human experience. However, as much as at first sight this
             definition appears to be clear, it does not reflect how the
             interaction of medicine with the humanities has evolved to
             become a separate field of study. In this publication we
             have explored, through the analysis of a group of selected
             multidisciplinary essays, the dynamics of this process. The
             essays predominantly address the interaction of literature,
             philosophy, art, art history, ethics, and education with
             medicine and its specialties from the classical period to
             the present. Particular attention has been given to the
             Medieval, Early Modern, and Enlightenment periods. To avoid
             a rigid compartmentalization of the book based on individual
             fields of study we opted for a fluid division into
             multidisciplinary sections, reflective of the complex
             interactions of the included works with medicine.},

   Abstract = {Made-Up Asians traces the history of yellowface, the
             theatrical convention of non-Asian actors putting on makeup
             and costume to look East Asian. Using specific case studies
             from European and U.S. theater, race science, and early
             film, Esther Kim Lee traces the development of yellowface in
             the U.S. context during the Exclusion Era (1862-1940), when
             Asians faced legal and cultural exclusion from immigration
             and citizenship. These caricatured, distorted, and
             misrepresented versions of Asians took the place of excluded
             Asians on theatrical stages and cinema screens. The book
             examines a wide-ranging set of primary sources, including
             makeup guidebooks, play catalogs, advertisements,
             biographies, and backstage anecdotes, providing new ways of
             understanding and categorizing yellowface as theatrical
             practice and historical subject. Made-Up Asians also shows
             how lingering effects of Asian exclusionary laws can still
             be seen in yellowface performances, casting practices, and
             anti-Asian violence into the 21st century.},

             that Clytemnestra’s and Deianeira’s tense interactions
             with messengers both register Athenian wives’ anxieties
             about receiving untrustworthy information during their
             husbands’ absences and dramatize a double bind for wives
             on the home front, whose initiative in response to such
             reports is both demanded and condemned in the new
             circumstances presented by Athens’ fifth-century military
             revolution.},
