Este artigo visa compreender a maneira pela qual os marcadores sociais da diferença de gênero, raça e classe atuam na construção de feminilidades entre transformistas que protagonizaram espetáculos artísticos naquela que foi a mais tradicional boate gay da capital cearense. Reflito, ainda, sobre como as masculinidades dessas artistas são transacionadas em suas reconstruções corporais transitórias. A pesquisa antropológica de caráter etnográfico focalizou os três últimos anos de funcionamento do estabelecimento. Além disso, foram acessadas notícias de jornais veiculadas no decorrer dos seus anos em atividade, bem como o acervo pessoal das artistas trans e dos produtores da casa noturna. Nesse sentido, observou-se que os processos de transformação corporal em foco evidenciam de maneira contumaz a construtividade dos gêneros, de forma a desestabilizar as perspectivas binárias que compreendem as feminilidades e as masculinidades de forma estanque e expressamente naturais.

THE CONQUEST OF FEMININITY”: An intersectional analysis of cross-dresser makeover Abstract: This article aims to understand the way social markers of gender, race and class differences act in the construction of femininities among cross-dressers who starredartistic performances in what once was the most traditional gay club in the capital of Ceará. It also reflects on how these artists ’masculinities are crossed over in their temporary body reconstructions. The ethnographic and anthropological research focused on the last three years of theclub. In addition, newsfrom newspapers during its active years were accessed, as well as the personal collection of the nightclub’s cross-dressers and producers. In this sense, it was observed that these body transformation processes highlight in a contumacious mannerthe constructiveness of genders, in order to destabilize the binary perspectives that view femininity and masculinity in a fixed and expressly natural way. Keywords: Cross-dressers. Makeover. Femininities.   “EL LOGRO DE LA FEMINIDAD”: Un análisis interseccional del montajecorporal transformista Resumen: Este artículo tiene como objetivo comprender la forma por la cual los marcadores sociales de la diferencia de género, raza y clase social actúan en la construcción de la feminidad entre transformistas que protagonizaron espectáculos artísticos en aquella que fue la más tradicionalista discoteca gay de la capital cearense.

The tracking literature examines how academic hierarchies contribute to race and class differences in academic achievement, but it pays scant attention to how school structures also influence students’ racial and ethnic identities. Relatedly, race/ethnicity and immigration scholars focus on how schools serve as sites for observing the social construction of racial and ethnic identities but do not account for how school structures actively shape these identity outcomes. This study makes a contribution to the immigration, race/ethnicity, and education literatures by examining how academic tracking influences the racial and ethnic identities of second-generation West Indian students. Consistent with the tracking literature, the author finds that Mayfield High School’s academic hierarchy contributes to the racialization of West Indian students and, in doing so, intensifies their racial group consciousness. It also shows how academic tracking simultaneously increases the salience of ethnic identity among Afro-Caribbean students. These findings point to the significance of educational institutions in shaping racialization processes in schools and contribute to broader conversations regarding the evolution of the color line in American society.

Iriarte, joven canario emigrado a Madrid, publica en 1782 una personalísima colección de fábulas en español, reelaborando el género clásico con nuevos materiales idiomáticos y una vasta variedad métrica que sirven para poner en solfa a los literatos de su tiempo. Un examen atento de las Fábulas irartianas, que destacan por su carácter dialógico y formular, revela y justifica la presencia de todo tipo de unidades poliléxicas: tanto combinaciones preferentes como colocaciones, locuciones y enunciados fraseológicos, unidades a menudo construidas sobre los más diversos locci comunes. Tras exponer los fundamentos teórico-metodológicos semánticos de que partimos, inventariamos, clasificamos y analizamos los distintos tipos de expresiones fijas a la luz de la especial naturaleza de esa obra con la idea de contribuir a un mejor conocimiento de la fraseología histórica española. Palabras clave: Lengua española, fraseología histórica, perspectiva semántica, Fábulas, Iriarte. Iriarte, a Canarian young in Madrid, published a very personal collection of fables in 1782, reworking the classic genre with new language materials and a vast variety of metrics that served to criticize the literary mood of his time. A careful examination of the Irartian Fábulas, which stand out for their dialogical and formulating character, reveals and justifies the presence of all kinds of polylexic units: both preferential combinations and collocations, idioms and proverbial sentences, most of them often built on locci comunes. After exposing our semantic theoretical-methodological principles, we inventoried, classified and analyzed the different types of fixed expressions in the Fábulas with the idea of contributing to a better knowledge of Spanish historical Phraseology.

Bridge Building

Key words: consilience, ecology, re-enchantment, niches, Weber, Darwinism  Rather than seeking to expose anthropocentrism, insisting on mutually reinforcing parallels between the discrimination of nature and mechanisms of gender, race and class, or pursuing a goal of anti-Enlightenment re-enchantment, ecocritics must engage in a programme of bridge-building between literary criticism and the empirically grounded sciences. Contextualisation of works in terms of environmental history, and a philosophy of biology critically examining its key concepts are currently among the most promising construction programmes of this kind. The time has come for ecocriticism to cease to be a romantic discourse of value or a priestly pursuit, and become a principled, professional, empirico-philosophical critique.   Palabras clave: consiliencia, ecología, encantamiento, nichos, Wever, darwinismo En lugar de empeñarse en exponer el ecocentrismo, con insistencia en paralelismos entre la discriminación de la naturaleza y mecanismos de género, raza y clase que se refuerzan de manera mutua o de salir a la caza de un objetivo de encantamiento anti Ilustración, los ecocríticos deben dedicarse a tender puentes entre la crítica literaria y las ciencias empíricas. La contextualización de obras en términos de historia medioambiental y una filosofía de la biología que examina de forma crítica sus conceptos clave se encuentran actualmente entre las iniciativas constructivas más prometedoras de su clase. Ha llegado la hora de que la ecocrítica deje de ser un discurso romántico de valor o una aspiración sacerdotal y se convierta en una crítica de principios, profesional y empirico-filosofica.

The essay draws on fictional and nonfiction accounts of Beat drug use, distinguishing between mind-expanding drugs, such as marijuana, or hallucinogens, such as LSD, and more addictive substances, such as opiates and amphetamines. The essay contextualizes Beat drug use in western literary traditions, while also encouraging course instructors to consider the gender, race, and class differences in drug use and the persistent racial and class stereotyping fuelling anti-drug rhetoric

Identity Threats

Using an interactional approach to studying organizations, we explore how social class differences alone and coupled with racial minority status generate identity threats for first-generation college students who are already underprivileged with respect to educational attainment. For these students the markers of social class are omnipresent and, like racial minorities, they experience microaggressions that require them to engage in identity work to counter these threats. We detail manifestations of social class differences on and off campus and identify the kinds of microaggressions these students encounter including those generated by the intersection of race and class that can destabilize students’ identities and lead to what we refer to as “identity collapse.” Our results also reveal four types of identity work including mining core identity strength, passing (via dodging and code switching), and developing peer support networks that allow some first-generation students to be resilient in responding to identity threats. We consider the implications of this class work for first-to-college students and offer suggestions for future research that expands our work to workplace organizations and inquires about the potential lasting effects of social class stigma.
