▼ This thesis was conceived as an attempt to use the terms hybridity and third space in historical archaeology with a comparative analysis of early colonial churches and Maya dwellings on the Yucatán Peninsula and Belize. This analysis was aimed at reconsidering the influence of the indigenous societies in colonial encounters represented as hybrid material culture. The first part of this study analyzes colonialism and archaeology from a postcolonial perspective. The idea was to break away from binary models and Eurocentric colonizer-donor vs colonized-receptor approaches in colonial encounters presenting instead, an ambivalent relationship in which the colonizer and the colonized identity and materiality is negotiated and recreated. The second part presents a brief overview of the Maya chronological framework, in order to continue with the colonial period. Colonialism in Mexico is examined showing how colonial institutions of power established the basis for a new urbanism and religious architecture. Three explorations were made in the Espiritu Santo Bay which were aimed at identifying colonial hamlets or rancherias caused by the congregaciones. Special attention was paid to the site Kachambay and its church Nuestra Señora de la Limpia Concepción which was founded in 1621 and mentioned in the legajo Mexico 906. Two new site were found in the north of Espiritu Santo Bay, proving the presence of human activity in a region commonly considered as uninhabited or desploblado. The third part discusses the thesis in general and compares Maya dwelling and Spanish churches in terms of plans and building materials. The results showed that the continuity of use of construction materials such as masonry, stucco, thatched roofs or ramadas, as well as apsidal, circular, and squared plans are possible to observe in some types of churches. It is argued in this thesis that archaeological works about colonial churches are poor and more studies are required in order to understand the cultural changes in the early colonial life on the Yucatán Peninsula and Belize.

▼ The Caodai religion of Vietnam has often been labeled as a peasant-driven, politico-religious sect due to its anti-colonial activities during the first half of the 1940s. This paper conducts an historical analysis of Caodaism’s formative years (1926-1941) to show that the religion was in fact primarily managed by Cochinchinese (South Vietnamese) elites who appropriated many of the governance and economic models introduced by the French colonial government. Combining their knowledge of Western bureaucratic systems with Asian religious traditions into a form of hybridity that exhibited both cultures, these elites founded the religion of Caodaism. The paper uses the concept of hybridity to look at how other aspects embody the negotiation and reappropriation of ideas by Caodaists. These include the concept of salvation, the religion’s spirit pantheon, Caodaism’s most famous Western convert (Gabriel Gobron), and the Caodai community in Tay Ninh province. I argue that these hybrid forms allowed Caodaists to overcome a sense of cultural inferiority by establishing cultural parity with the West. Furthermore, I look at the recent developments within Caodaist communities that have formed in the wake of the 1975 Vietnamese Diaspora. I first examine the influence of restrictive state policies on Caodaists in the homeland and compare it with the experiences of diasporic Vietnamese in rebuilding their religion outside of Vietnam. I find that these diasporic communities are caught between two poles in their attempts to revive the religion. Some overseas Caodaists feel that it is necessary to preserve the tradition by supporting mainland Caodaism from the outside. Others find it more suitable to begin reinventing the religion to cater to diasporic needs and challenges. This tension, I argue, also constitutes a type of hybridity in which individuals must delegate between these two approaches to decide the future of their religion.

▼ Colonial powers exert dominance over their subject countries in multiple registers, for example, education and spatial constructions, which foster the colonised other‘s identification with the colonial power centre. Racial and local cultures of subject nations are thus systematically distorted and the transmission of memory through material culture is obscured. Focusing on contemporary Taiwan, this research examines how architectural and ideological strategies were employed by the dominant authorities to consolidate the power centre and explores possible means for shaping Taiwanese spatial subjectivity in the historical aftermath of such situations. The research examines the Formosans‘ ambiguous identification with local cultures and marginal spatial propositions, as well as discussing the inculcation of the 'great Chinese ideology‘ by analysing the teaching materials used in modern Taiwanese primary education. Reviewing aspects of contemporary post-colonial theory, the research explores the spatial implications of Taiwanese post-colonial textual narratives and argues for them as a potential source for the construction of contemporary spatial conditions, as these novels are shaped by an awareness of the importance of local cultures and the voices of marginalised people. The thesis thus suggests that a re-thinking of Taiwan‘s public spaces can be stimulated by spatial metaphors in textual narratives that associate peoples‘ memories of political and local events with spatial images that were previously suppressed. To explore the potential for the generation of space through reference to literary works, this research studies the ‗narrative architecture‘ experiments of the 1970s and 80s and goes on to propose a series of representational media for the construction of spatial narrations in Taiwan. Multiple spatial propositions concerning the island‘s post-colonial condition can be suggested by the visualisation of spatial metaphors that are embedded in Taiwanese textual narratives. At the end of the thesis, two proposals for post-colonial spatial narration are put forward, which transform the spatial propositions latent in the devices developed through a new juxtaposition with existing urban contexts. The intention of the research is to indicate a new urban spatial strategy for Taiwan, one that can allow its people to grasp the multiple layers of their conflicted spatial history while at the same time responding to the ongoing spatial confrontation between the power centre and the voices in the margins.

▼ Within the U.S., particular anxieties surrounding racially and ethnically marked “others” reflect particular historical moments, and today ours are prompted by contemporized fears of immigration and terrorism. In this dissertation, I take up these issues, focusing on contemporary instantiations and negotiations of hybridity within U.S. culture. While hybridity has been examined at length, the ways in which hybridity is mobilized in distinctive ways through or by various bodies have been relatively overlooked. Thus, I examine the ways in which hybridity is rhetorically embodied and mobilized within contemporary mainstream media. I take up these issues with a focus on two questions: (a) How is hybridity mobilized in distinctive ways in, through, or by various bodies, particularly as reflective of historical context? (b) How does “the body”-in particular, specific deployments of the body-feature in contemporary articulations of hybridity? I answer these questions through a critical analysis of texts, drawing from both critical rhetoric and critical performance studies. I focus on two competition-style reality dance shows, So You Think You Can Dance (SYTYCD) and Dancing with the Stars (DWTS); the competition-style reality show America’s Next Top Model (ANTM); and three Food Network cooking shows, Simply Delicioso with Ingrid Hoffmann, Aarti Party, and Everyday Italian. Analysis of these texts suggest that hybridity is mobilized in varied and distinctive ways by, through, and on variously marked bodies. Ultimately, this study refines extant theorizing on hybridity: While borders are inevitably critical to any conceptualizations of hybridity, this project reveals nuance and complexities of how borders are accomplished and navigated across these various embodied mobilizations and illuminate particularized contemporary anxieties regarding race/ethnicity. Hybridity in a current context appears to be articulated as-conflated with-individual uniqueness and authenticity, the expression of which is encouraged and celebrated, but only within very specific contexts or confines. Ultimately, then, via its location in and deployment by particular bodies, hybridity is articulated as a feature and expression of the unique, authentic self, as opposed to a politics of identity, in ways that justify discipline of race/ethnicity if and when hybridity “crosses the line.”

▼ This research is concerned with the problems and possibilities of combining diverse forms of peacebuilding in the same peacebuilding space. It analyses patterns of interaction between various forms of peacebuilding using a framework of hybridity. Within debates on peacebuilding hybridities, frictional encounters are situated between international peacebuilders and ‘locals’ who are predominantly conceptualised as domestic, indigenous and globally Southern. While enhancing understandings of local/international interactions, this conceptualisation excludes constituencies of locals who occupy global spaces – those in diaspora. Diaspora activists have been shown to ambivalently shape other processes of homeland change as either mediators or meddlers due to the opportunities and limitations arising from being in diaspora. In spite of this, an in-depth understanding of the roles of diaspora in hybrid peacebuilding debates is lacking. When diaspora activists have been analysed in relation to peacebuilding, it has been primarily outside of the framework of hybridity which – due to its roots in postcolonial theory – extolls resistance to international peacebuilding as having enormous peacebuilding potential. As such, diaspora who resist international peacebuilding processes have been consistently cast as peace-wreckers which belies the tolerance for resistance so central to hybrid analyses. In light of the potential for diaspora, and particularly those in opposition to formal peacebuilding, to transform, assuage or exacerbate patterns of interaction between locals and internationals, this research centralises diaspora opposition activism in a hybrid analysis of a peacebuilding space. It does this through a single case study of UK Sudanese activists and their contributions to Sudanese peacebuilding. Sudanese peacebuilding is characterised by its diversity: it combines international peace agreements, elite dialogues, top-down transitional justice with local-level community reconciliation and bottom-up political change movements. It therefore provides an exemplary case of a peacebuilding space in which multiple forms of peacebuilding with diverse, and often contradictory aims, coalesce and contend with one another. The study examines how Sudanese activists resident in the UK shape the patterns of interaction within Sudanese peacebuilding, and asks how various aspects of ‘being in diaspora’ make those contributions possible. In doing so, this research contributes to understandings of how, why and with what effects diverse actors, ideas and processes combine during peacebuilding.

▼ This research is concerned with the problems and possibilities of combining diverse forms of peacebuilding in the same peacebuilding space. It analyses patterns of interaction between various forms of peacebuilding using a framework of hybridity. Within debates on peacebuilding hybridities, frictional encounters are situated between international peacebuilders and 'locals' who are predominantly conceptualised as domestic, indigenous and globally Southern. While enhancing understandings of local/international interactions, this conceptualisation excludes constituencies of locals who occupy global spaces - those in diaspora. Diaspora activists have been shown to ambivalently shape other processes of homeland change as either mediators or meddlers due to the opportunities and limitations arising from being in diaspora. In spite of this, an in-depth understanding of the roles of diaspora in hybrid peacebuilding debates is lacking. When diaspora activists have been analysed in relation to peacebuilding, it has been primarily outside of the framework of hybridity which - due to its roots in postcolonial theory - extolls resistance to international peacebuilding as having enormous peacebuilding potential. As such, diaspora who resist international peacebuilding processes have been consistently cast as peace-wreckers which belies the tolerance for resistance so central to hybrid analyses. In light of the potential for diaspora, and particularly those in opposition to formal peacebuilding, to transform, assuage or exacerbate patterns of interaction between locals and internationals, this research centralises diaspora opposition activism in a hybrid analysis of a peacebuilding space. It does this through a single case study of UK Sudanese activists and their contributions to Sudanese peacebuilding. Sudanese peacebuilding is characterised by its diversity: it combines international peace agreements, elite dialogues, top-down transitional justice with local-level community reconciliation and bottom-up political change movements. It therefore provides an exemplary case of a peacebuilding space in which multiple forms of peacebuilding with diverse, and often contradictory aims, coalesce and contend with one another. The study examines how Sudanese activists resident in the UK shape the patterns of interaction within Sudanese peacebuilding, and asks how various aspects of 'being in diaspora' make those contributions possible. In doing so, this research contributes to understandings of how, why and with what effects diverse actors, ideas and processes combine during peacebuilding.

▼ Sicily, as a crossroads of the Mediterranean, is no stranger to the occupation of non-native people. Its history of change and occupation made Sicily a melting pot of cultural identity, and the island should be studied as a nexus of cultural hybridity. The fifth century BCE marked a pivotal moment on the island, as the rising conflict between the Greeks and Carthaginians culminated in war until the eventual subjugation of Greek lands at the hands of the Romans in the third century BCE. Remnants of material culture, whether monumental architecture, currency, trade of small objects, or dedicatory sculpture, offer modern scholars a chance to trace critical moments of interaction in Sicily. This thesis explores such moments in the history of Sicily’s material culture in order to propose a new understanding of the interaction between Greeks and Carthaginians in Sicily, especially during periods of heightened conflict between the two cultures. By closely studying moments of intense conflict, as well as significant material remains and works of art, this project aims to provide a more complete picture of the complex nature of interaction in Archaic and early Classical Sicily. The subsequent chapters will explore material culture from Punic, Greek, and indigenous sites for evidence of influence spurred by interaction. Using specific sculptural and architectural monuments on the island as case studies, namely the Motya Youth statue found at the Sanctuary or Cappidazzu in Mozia, two Greek archaizing stelai from the Campo di Stele at the Zeus Meilichios sanctuary in Selinous, and the Doric temple of Segesta, I show the ways that cross-cultural influences permeated the material culture of all peoples of Sicily. Future research will continue to dispel the colonial myth of “Hellenization” and show that the culture of Sicily was a mosaic and unique blend of Punic, Greek, and indigenous convergence in the sixth to fourth centuries BCE.

▼ Global migrations of the past century have forced many cultural groups to confront issues ranging from urban isolation to acculturated absorption. Major population shifts have resulted in the relocation of peoples of divergent backgrounds to convergent and crowded environs, and in the process, have forced individuals to grapple with their own identity. Peruvian author and ethno-anthropologist José María Arguedas personifies that reality. Indeed, I argue that Arguedas’s fictional writings anticipated those dramatic changes and their consequences, and are emblematic of the cultural turmoil of 20th century Peru, which itself is a microcosm of issues that concern many Third World populations in the postmodern era worldwide. While some critics argue that Arguedas’s style rejects postmodern traits, I make the case that his work is transitional, moving from the modern to the postmodern and that from the outset his fiction contains integral structures that decidedly fall into the latter category. Furthermore, I disagree with other critics’ evaluations of Arguedas’s work as simplistic and utopic, and argue that it demonstrates a complexity of vision that presages emerging events. Components of that vision include his creation of a new hybrid language, his expression of complex hybrid identity constructions among the subaltern and the hegemonic in rural performance and societal interaction, and magical real elements of autochthonous cosmovision that are widespread today. The internalized tensions resulting from hybridities of heritage that impede self-actualization are central to understanding his novels, informing the fractured postmodern personality. Further, I argue that Arguedas uses his personal experience of incarceration to reveal the prison as another fragmenting location of both the abject and the sublime. His final and most controversial work reveals postmodern society as a chaotic melding of modern-day capitalistic greed churning in today’s urban vortex combined with ancient mythical performance as a comedic yet assertive language of cultural resistance, with the individual identity caught precipitously in the middle. Through his work, Arguedas is a prophetic signifier of the hybrid world with which we struggle today.

▼ This thesis performs an analysis of poetry and migration in contemporary Italy. It explores poetic works produced in Italian by three authors born in non-Italophone countries: Hasan Atiya Al Nassar (Iraq), Barbara Pumhösel (Austria) and Gëzim Hajdari (Albania). Although their birthplaces are diverse and their migratory circumstances are heterogeneous, these authors share the period of their arrival in Italy (from the 1980s to the early 1990s), their exophonic practice and the ability to develop a significant poetic experience in their second language. My dissertation constitutes an unprecedented investigation of the stylistic features of these works, highlighting both the common traits and the distinctive elements that characterise their individual voices, and thereby delineating a preliminary phenomenology of the qualities of exophonic poetics in the Italian context. The dissertation is organised into four chapters. The first chapter discusses the theoretical and critical grounding of the research, illustrates the position of exophonic voices in contemporary Italy (1990-2010), builds the corpus of works, introduces the authors’ profiles and defines the methodology and criteria for analysis. The ensuing three chapters are each dedicated to one author, and contain a full metrical-stylistic analysis of the selected works, focusing on the occurrence of poetic forms, the use of metre and the incidence and value of rhythmical patterns. The conclusion, expanding upon the material collected in the textual analysis, aims to trace a preliminary phenomenology of exophonic versification in contemporary Italy. Firstly it elaborates upon the hybridisation of poetic forms, identifying movement as a foundational element in exophonic versification. Secondly it discusses the texts’ formal connections to conventional metres in the Italian tradition (such as endecasillabo) and cases of innovation or reinterpretation of these patterns. Thirdly it reflects on the use of language in exophonic productions and identifies the reflection on language as a trope in these works. More generally, my thesis aims to investigate the aesthetic impact of exophonic poetics on the contemporary Italian literary scene, and then to immerse the Italian example in a broader transnational context. It also endeavours to discover and develop instruments and strategies for the future stylistic analysis of exophonic poetic productions.

▼ A key aim of this study is to shed light on the representation of coloured women with reference to racial passing, using fictive characters depicted in Sarah Gertrude Millin’s (1924) God's Stepchildren, Zoë Wicomb's (2006) Playing in the Light, and Pat Stamatélos's (2005) Kroes, as presented by these three racially distinct female South African authors. Since I propose that literature provides a link between a subjective history and the under-represented narratives from the margins, I use literature to reimagine these. I analyse the ways in which the authors present 'hybrid' identities within their characters in different ways, and provide an explanation and contextual basis for the exploration of the theme of 'passing for and as white' within South Africa's complex history. I provide a sociological explanation of the act of racial passing in South Africa with reference to the United States by incorporating Nella Larsen's (1929) Passing. Since the analyses will concentrate on coloured females within the texts, gendered identity and female sexuality and stereotypes will be the focus. I look at the act and agent of passing, the role of raced and gendered performance in giving meaning to social identities, and the way in which the female body is constructed in racial terms in order to confer identity. Tracing the historical origins of coloured identity and coloured female identity, I interrogate this colonial, post-colonial, apartheid and post-apartheid history by employing a feminist lens. A combination of postcolonial feminist discourse analysis, sociological inquiry and feminist narrative analysis are therefore the methods I use to achieve my research aims. Chapter 1: The concepts of 'coloured', 'coloured identity', and 'passing' are introduced. I provide a historical overview of the origins of 'colouredness' in the South African context to examine the historical, ideological and social implications of the subject matter under discussion. Chapter 2: Set over a period between the years 1821 to 1921 God's Stepchildren deals with a family spanning four generations, bound by 'tainted' blood. I focus on the character Elmira who represents the third generation of the initial 'miscegenation'. I look at the effect the racist social milieu has on the author’s representation of coloured women and how this translates into apparently insurmountable beliefs that stereotypes equal nature. Chapter 3: Playing in the Light confronts racial passing through an unwitting passer and her intentionally passing parents. I analyse how Wicomb presents the protagonist's struggle to relocate her identity in contemporary South African society. I compare the attitudes toward race presented by the characters, especially across the two generations of passing women in the novel in order to demonstrate a progression in attitudes toward passing. Chapter 4: Kroes, published in 2005, is partially biographical. The novel is set in urban Cape Town and Johannesburg of the late 1950s to 1970. The protagonist, and central passing figure, narrates the story… Advisors/Committee Members: Lewis, Desiree (advisor).

▼ This dissertation project emerges from an interest in immigrant labor, the globalization of southern literature, and the ways in which laboring bodies, specifically those of food processing workers, casino workers and motel workers, are represented in contemporary literary and cultural productions. Literary and cultural productions about immigrants and immigrant labor aim to problematize and challenge the dominant perception of immigration and narratives of immigration that continue to perpetuate ideas of exploitation and alterity. In doing so, these texts contribute to the reconstruction of the U.S. South as a global region and to the liberation of southern literature from traditional conceptual models that reinforce its insularity and exceptionality. The introduction of this project argues for a different way of reading immigrant narratives that deconstruct binaries in the region in order to situate new immigrant narratives as contributing to the extension of the boundaries and borders of the southern literature. Here the movement of people across constructed national boundaries is no longer situated between spatially and temporally differentiated areas, but instead is seen as taking place within a global system. The contemporary cultural productions analyzed in the dissertation provide varying representations of immigrant labor and labor exploitation and include works of literature and a film. The first chapter examines the ways in which the contemporary immigrant narrative is employed in the novel Holy Radishes! by Roberto G. Fernández in order to trace the perpetuation of labor exploitation through exiled female employees of a food processing plant in Florida. Chapter two provides an analysis of Tom Wolfe's A Man in Full and focuses on the novel's rendering of undocumented immigrant workers in food processing plants and its challenges to the ideological and Social perceptions of immigrant labor. The third chapter focuses on representations of immigrant labor, which is performed in the public sphere of the casino industry in Cynthia Shearer's The Celestial Jukebox. The final chapter analyzes Mira Nair's film Mississippi Masala and concentrates on the labor of Indian motel workers addressing, as in the previous chapters, deep-rooted labor history and historical labor traumas in the region.

▼ Hybrid beings have been a part of the artistic imagination since art was first made on cave walls and rock faces. Yet their visual makeup and symbolic meanings have changed over time from deities, demons, and oddities of nature to unconscious states of being and the socially and culturally marginalized. This dissertation will examine a history of hybrid beings and the work of Australian artist Patricia Piccinini. Her silicone sculptures, photographs, installations, and videos are hyperrealistic representations of composite beings that appear to have blended rather than fragmented characteristics of human and animal, which sets them apart from their historic precedents. Piccinini suggests that her hybrids are products of genetic engineering, ostensibly created to serve human beings as comforters, nurturers, protectors, and surrogates for humans and endangered species alike. I argue that Piccinini's hybrids shed light on the hubris and commercialism inherent in bioscientific advances, yet they also reveal a kind of societal ambivalence regarding the posthuman era. Her works suggest utopian aspirations for the future while mourning the loss of humanity as it has been known. Examining Piccinini's art through the lens of liminality and the body, I will contextualize her hybrids within cultural and art historical models from ancient Egypt and Greece through the Victorian eras. In particular, I will establish common ground with Mary Shelley's Frankenstein (1818), which served as an early inspiration for Piccinini's images and conceptual aims. I will also highlight hybrid imagery in Dada and Surrealism and feminist art to reveal the similarities and differences in their approaches and intent. Piccinini's works operate within Donna J. Haraway's notion of the cyborg; therefore, I will also analyze her art within that theoretical model. In addition, I will compare and contrast Piccinini's art to early hyprerrealist sculptors and contemporary artists working in this manner. Piccinini's hybrids establish that both humans and animals are social constructs, and that society has a responsibility for the life forms it creates. Ultimately, this project demonstrates that Piccinini's hybrids are not cautionary tales of a dystopian future but representations of the biotechnological sublime.

▼ The year this dissertation was submitted there were more individuals forcibly displaced around the world than at any other point in history. Research describing the vulnerabilities, human rights violations, and challenges individuals, families, and communities encounter across the spectrum of migration is readily accessible. Less available are studies that document the strengths-focused response strategies women refugees engage to navigate systems and experiences associated with displacement. This research, developed with the purpose to answer questions residing in this gap, is a series of ethnographic case studies documenting experiences of resilience, identity construction, and mothering among Karen refugee women from Burma. I define a response strategy as a tool engaged by an individual or community to navigate forced migration and promote the resilience of interpersonal connections, and cope individually and collectively with the challenges inherent to cultural transformation. Through this conceptual model I explore the experiences of women refugees from Burma living in refugee camps on the Thai-Burma border and post-resettlement in the United States. Discourse, positional identity and hybridity frame, from a theoretical perspective, the tension inherent to the transformation of systems and structures. In particular, in this research I engage hybridity theory and the space of cultural difference to articulate the intersection of this transformation with the migration narratives of Karen women. The total study period was eleven months and characterized by two distinct phases of data collection. In the first phase I spent three weeks in two refugee camps along the Thai-Burma border conducting participant observation and informal interviews with Karen refugee women. In the refugee camps I partnered with the American Refugee Committee (ARC). The maternal-child health focus of ARC programs in the camps along the Thai-Burma border is highly regarded. In the second phase of data collection and analysis, I recruited and interviewed repeatedly a cohort of twelve Karen women post-resettlement in the United States over a seven-month period. An essential community partner in this phase of research was the Karen Organization of Minnesota (KOM). The KOM was the first Karen run organization in the United States advocating and supporting the experiences of refugees from Burma in resettlement. I formally approached the analysis of each phase of data collection using Spradley’s levels of analysis, a classical method of analysis in ethnographic research. In working through the four levels of Spradley’s analysis I reconstructed, from the narratives of refugee women, processes integral in self-understanding, identity, and the negotiation of factors associated with migration. This method of analysis supported an intricate approach to the data. I was able to establish broader categories of meaning, such as response strategies that support the health of individuals, families, and communities. Spradley’s analysis was…
