<p>This dissertation examines the political response of gay and lesbian organizations to the HIV/AIDS crisis through the lens of disability. When the National Gay Task Force (NGTF) formed in the 1970s, their early political efforts confronted the stigma and exclusion associated with the American Psychiatric Association’s disabling label. In the 1980s, gay and lesbian organizations faced a deadly epidemic—AIDS. The high cost of medical care left people with AIDS destitute. NGTF pressed the Social Security Administration to modify their disability criteria to recognize AIDS and ARC as qualifying disabilities. Fear and homophobia left people with AIDS vulnerable to employment, housing and medical discrimination as well as social ostracism. Gay Men’s Health Crisis and Lambda Legal Defense and Education Fund countered AIDS discrimination in New York through collaborative efforts with city and state agencies. Disability rights codes and laws offered people with AIDS some protection against discrimination. The Task Force, the Gay Rights National Lobby and the Disability Rights Defense & Education Fund joined the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights in 1982. While the Conference did not engage in the campaign for gay and lesbian rights in the 1980s, their extended legislative crusade for the Civil Rights Restoration Act would bring AIDS onto the battlefield. This study finds these various antecedents came into play during the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) to the extent that gay and lesbian organizations could describe the ADA as an “AIDS bill” in terms of both their political participation and the text protecting people with contagious diseases who were not a threat.<br></p>

Essa pesquisa tem como objetivo central mostrar que os projetos de integração latino-americana por meio da canção, construídos ao longo da década de 1960 e dos anos iniciais da década de 1970, não foram destruídos pelas ditaduras militares que se instalaram nesse período na América Latina. Ainda que os novos regimes tenham tido como objetivo claro aniquilar toda e qualquer experiência de arte política, tentando desarticular as redes de arte engajada que haviam se formado nos períodos pré-golpes, os artistas acabaram encontrando estratégias de sobrevivência diante do novo contexto. Aqueles que ficaram em seus países seguiram militando na clandestinidade. Mas o destino de grande parte dos músicos engajados latino-americanos na década de 1970 foi o exílio. A instalação desses grupos nos países de acolhida dependeu em grande medida da articulação de redes de solidariedade, que pretendiam dar suporte aos exilados e também organizar ações de resistência e denúncia da violência das ditaduras. Esses movimentos de solidariedade encontraram na produção de discos um caminho de ação política; refletir sobre essa rede musical de solidariedade, tomando os discos como fontes principais e objetos de análise, é um dos objetivos principais deste trabalho, a fim de entender como a mobilização da resistência passou pela veiculação de discursos políticos por meio de canções. Para além dos discos produzidos pela solidariedade, outro importante objetivo deste trabalho é refletir sobre a obra musical desenvolvida no exílio por importantes artistas ligados à nueva canción latino-americana. A consciência de que a experiência do exílio não seria tão breve e provisória quanto se havia imaginado inicialmente fez com que os músicos buscassem espaço na indústria cultural dos países de acolhida de modo a retomar suas obras fonográficas, que passaram a refletir sobre a experiência do exílio e os caminhos possíveis para a resistência ao autoritarismo. / The main aim of this research is to show that Latin American integration projects by music, built during the 1960s and early 1970s, were not destroyed by the military dictatorships that settled in Latin America by this time. Although the new regimes had the clear objective of annihilating any experience of political art, trying to destroy the networks of committed art that had been formed in the pre-coup periods, the artists ended up finding strategies of survival in the new context. Those who stayed in their countries went underground. But most of the Latin American committed musicians in the 1970s went to the exile. Their stay in the host countries was largely determined by the articulation of solidarity networks, which tried to support the exiles and also organize actions of resistance and dictatorships violence reports. These movements of solidarity found in the disc production a path of political action; one of the main aim of this work is to reflect on this \"musical network of solidarity\", taking the discs as sources and objects of analysis, in order to understand that the mobilization of the resistance has been based on the transmission of political speeches through songs. In addition to the albums produced by solidarity, another important aim of this work is to reflect on the musical work developed in exile by important artists linked to the nueva canción. The awareness that the exile experience would not be as brief as they had imagined at first made the musicians seek space in the cultural industry of the host countries in order to resume their phonographic works, which began to reflect on the experience of exile and possible ways of resistance to authoritarianism.

The thesis investigates the field of Theatre practice variously referred to as alternative, non-mainstream, avant-garde, community or fringe theatre. I have suggested the term 'Radical Group Theatre' - a term which, I believe, best encompasses the sector formerly represented by this diverse body of theatre practice. I focus on the relationship between theoretical and practical paradigms, and debates surrounding them; theatre making processes; and directorial practice in a theatre form which has emerged as a distinctive set of characteristics, ideological frameworks and practices in the Australian context. The work is strongly informed by the perspectives and practices of a range of major contributors to the field. It notes the inadequacy of conventional analytics and established understandings of the theory/practice nexus for exploring Radical Group Theatre, and establishes an alternate set of frameworks. These enable fresh engagement with the development and current praxis of an important theatre form which has not previously been considered as a whole field yet has taken particularly exciting directions in Australia over the past three decades. Methodology and objectives: An important aspect of the study is the way in which the research methodology parallels the practice under investigation. That is, the practice of Radical Group Theatre in Australia mirrors the 'Reflective Reflexive Loop' which I propose as the pre-eminent principle of the praxis. The methodology has developed out of my Masters degree research which was an interrogation of my directorial practice in the field of Youth/Community theatre, 1976-1989. I was further interested to analyse the field of group theatre to determine whether common key principles identified as characteristics of the form in the earlier study constituted the basis for an analytical model of Radical Group Theatre praxis. The investigation for this thesis began with a project designed to synthesise the essential qualities of directorial practice: the qualities of the good director, the major influences on practice, and the expectations participants have regarding the function of the director. The preliminary findings formed the basis for a comparative study which sought answers to the key questions as they apply to a pre-professional radical theatre setting - university student theatre. This project gave birth to the focus questions of the study which established the theoretical and methodological frames for the thesis.

Under det svenska 1960- och 1970-talet engagerade sig det svenska folket i en rad olika ideologiorienterade organisationer, internationella frågor eller folkrörelser, något som även tog sitt uttryck i kulturen. Mitt syfte med denna uppsats är att undersöka ett urval politiska affischer, utifrån Michael Baxandalls teori "The period eye", hur 1960- och 1970-talets konst påverkades av samtidens samhällstrukturer och politiska engagemang. Min tyngdpunkt kommer att ligga i de politiska affischer som på något sätt hade en anknytning till en alternativ rörelse, såsom Miljörörelsen, Kvinnorörelsen och Vietnamrörelsen. Men även den den svenska konstscenen i stort kommer att tillföras till undersökningen som en komplettering till förståelsen av affischernas uttryck och funktion, som ofta fabricerades utanför institutionella sammanhang. Dessa frågeställningar vill jag besvara med hjälp av den historiska bakgrunden och min analys: Vilka orsaker ligger bakom användandet av konstnärliga affischer vid spridningen av politisk propaganda? Det vill säga: Vilka faktorer gjorde att affischen användes flitigt som medium av de alternativa rörelserna istället för annan bildkonst? Hur kan den politiska andan från decennierna urskiljas konkret i affischerna? Hur skiljer sig affischkonsten från den mer institutionella konsten under dessa två decennier? Utifrån mina frågeställningar kommer jag att analysera tre politiska affischer genom att sätta in dem i ett historiskt perspektiv, vilket är deras samtid, 1960- och 1970-tal. Viktigt i det historiska perspektivet kommer att vara; de ekonomiska förutsättningarna, politikens uttryck i de olika sociala rörelserna, de internationella frågorna som präglade den svenska inrikespolitiken, synen på kulturarbetarnas politiska ansvar och konstnärens roll som politisk aktör.

These dwellings were originally classified (ARA?JO, 2010a) in five categories defined according to the form of their building shells and to their prevailing construction techniques: (1) Brazilian modern legacy (considered as truly Brazilian modern style); (2) Paulista architecture (that refers to the modern production of S?o Paulo, Brazil, from the 1950s through the 1970s); (3) experiences of rationalization and prefabrication ; (4) experiences of adaptation to the climate (referring to a design strongly influenced by the hot and humid climate of North-eastern Brazil); and (5) hybrid (to account for a kind of stylistic hybridism that includes formal attributes, which evoke our colonial past). This study aims to determine, through the analyses of nineteen cases that represent each category, whether this taxonomy corresponds to distinct modes of spatial configuration. This research therefore proposes an approach to the classification of domestic architecture based on topological properties. The dwellings spatial organization was represented, quantified and analyzed, their spatial properties explored in consonance with one another and with the literature. Results pointed out that there is no evidence of a reciprocal relationship between the formal look of the built shells and their respective spatial structures / Assumindo que espa?o e inv?lucro constru?do s?o duas dimens?es distintas da arquitetura - ainda que indissoci?veis e interdependentes -, este estudo enfoca, ? luz da Teoria da L?gica Social do Espa?o (HILLIER; HANSON, 1984), as propriedades intr?nsecas atrav?s das quais o espa?o dom?stico foi estruturado em uma amostra de habita??es unifamiliares constru?das em Jo?o Pessoa (PB) nos anos 1970 - quando o vocabul?rio moderno ainda predominava no Brasil, embora compartilhando espa?o na cena urbana com outras tend?ncias arquitet?nicas -, a fim de investigar regularidades ou diverg?ncias subjacentes ? sua concep??o. Essas resid?ncias foram originalmente classificadas (ARA?JO, 2010a) em cinco categorias definidas por seus atributos formais e t?cnicos: (1) legado moderno brasileiro, (2) arquitetura paulista, (3) experi?ncias de racionaliza??o e pr?-fabrica??o, (4) experi?ncias de adequa??o ao clima e (5) resid?ncias h?bridas (que utilizam elementos que evocam um passado colonioso ). Neste estudo se quer verificar, atrav?s da an?lise de dezenove exemplares representativos dessa produ??o, se essa taxonomia corresponde a categorias definidas pela configura??o espacial. Esta pesquisa, portanto, prop?e uma abordagem para a classifica??o de arquitetura dom?stica baseada em sua dimens?o topol?gica. As casas foram analisadas considerando sua organiza??o espacial, representada e quantificada atrav?s da aplica??o dos instrumentos e medidas definidos por suas propriedades espaciais. Os resultados apontaram que n?o existem evid?ncias de rela??o de reciprocidade entre o inv?lucro constru?do e suas respectivas estruturas espaciais

Este estudo investiga as produções artísticas de Wanda Pimentel e Teresinha Soares em meados da década de 1960 e início da década de 1970, com o objetivo de analisar a questão de gênero e a construção da subjetividade feminina. A pesquisa buscou analisar as relações estéticas das obras de Pimentel e Soares à luz das influências das teorias feministas que migravam dos Estados Unidos para o Brasil ao final dos anos de 1960. A partir disso, destacou as relações teóricas entre as questões de gênero e as práticas artísticas das vanguardas brasileiras. Ademais, esta pesquisa tratou da circulação das obras de Pimentel e Soares, visto que as artistas estiveram inseridas no circuito de arte brasileiro em exposições coletivas, salões e bienais no período estudado. Esse contexto de circulação permitiu uma visão crítica frente à retomada das obras dessas artistas em exposições internacionais nos últimos três anos, em virtude de uma política revisionista dos museus acerca das questões de gênero e da produção artística de países à margem dos centros culturais canônicos. O estudo amplia o conhecimento acadêmico sobre as produções artísticas realizadas por mulheres nas décadas de 1960 e 1970, que adotaram a crítica feminista sem se ater a movimentos sociais, contribuindo para o debate sobre a suposta marginalidade da mulher no circuito de arte brasileiro durante a ditadura militar. / This study investigates the artistic productions of Wanda Pimentel and Teresinha Soares in the mid - 1960s and early 1970s, with the objective of analysing the issue of gender and the construction of female subjectivity. The research seeks to analyse the aesthetic relations of the works of Pimentel and Soares in light of the influences of feminist theories that migrated from the United States to Brazil in the late 1960s. This highlights the theoretical relations between gender issues and the artistic practices of the Brazilian vanguard. In addition, this research looks at the circulation of the works of Pimentel and Soares given that both were part of the Brazilian art circuit in collective exhibitions and biennials in this period. This context of the circulation of art allows a critical view of the return of the work of these artists to international exhibitions in the last three years; a return driven by the revisionist policies of museums on issues of gender and artistic production in countries outside the canonical cultural centres. The study expands the academic knowledge about artistic productions made by women in the 1960s and 1970s, who adopted a feminist critique without reference to social movements, contributing to the debate about the supposed marginalisation of women in the Brazilian art circuit during the dictatorship military.

Esta dissertação busca mapear as redes de artistas, intelectuais e eventos responsáveis, na década de 1970, por introduzir discussões e linguagens da arte contemporânea no eixo Sul do Brasil. Para tanto, debruça-se sobre os maiores centros urbanos da região, cujos campos artísticos estão mais bem estruturados e são mais longevos, as capitais Curitiba (PR) e Porto Alegre (RS). Por meio especialmente de pesquisa de arquivo e entrevistas, são analisadas as especificidades socioculturais e políticas que conformaram as condições para a emergência de um campo de liberdade artística e ruptura de cânones dos chamados anos de chumbo do regime ditatorial ao início do período da redemocratização. Privilegiam-se, nos estudos de caso, ações coletivas e experimentais ligadas aos conceitualismos nas artes visuais que procuraram romper com as tradições e discursos regionalistas, expandindo as fronteiras estatais , concebidas por agentes envolvidos com o pensamento contracultural em voga a partir do final dos anos 1960. / This dissertation seeks to map the networks of artists, intellectuals and events responsible, in the 1970s, for introducing discussions and languages of contemporary art in the Southern axis of Brazil. As such, it focuses on the regions largest urban centers, the capitals Curitiba (PR) and Porto Alegre (RS), whose artistic fields are better structured and longer-lived. Especially through archival research and interviews, the sociocultural and political specificities that shaped the conditions for the emergence of a field of artistic freedom, of rupture from canons, are analyzed from the so-called anos de chumbo of the dictatorial regime to the beginning of redemocratization. In the case studies, greater attention is given to collective and experimental actions linked to conceptualisms in visual arts which sought to break from regionalist traditions and discourses, expanding the state boundaries conceived by artists involved with the countercultural thinking, in vogue since the early 1960.

Este trabalho analisa quatro peças brasileiras dos anos 1970: Um grito parado no ar (Gianfrancesco Guarnieri, 1973), Rasga coração (Oduvaldo Vianna Filho, 1974), Gota dágua (Chico Buarque e Paulo Pontes, 1975) e O último carro (João das Neves, 19641967-1976). Escritas por diferentes dramaturgos, essas peças são representantes de um projeto de teatro que se constituiu na década de 1970, marcado pelas tentativas de retomada dos palcos brasileiros com uma dramaturgia cujas principais características são a valorização da palavra como eixo estruturante das peças, o investimento na busca por uma síntese formal de acordo com a matéria histórica a ser representada e a reafirmação do compromisso com o engajamento. A análise das peças permitiu identificar a forte presença de elementos da cultura política comunista e a proximidade de seu discurso com o projeto político do Partido Comunista Brasileiro (PCB), o que permitiu caracterizá-las como dramaturgia de matriz comunista. As tentativas de retomada dos palcos se deram através de um processo de avaliação da prática teatral no qual os dramaturgos reafirmaram alguns dos pressupostos que haviam tido no horizonte de sua escrita dramatúrgica até então, ao mesmo tempo em que tentaram abandonar outros. Tentando deixar de lado o idealismo com que haviam lido a realidade brasileira e a teleologia revolucionária com que haviam representado os personagens populares, esses dramaturgos não abandonaram a defesa de uma estratégia de resistência ao regime militar através de uma frente ampla pela redemocratização. O frentismo, porém, surge reconfigurado, tendo seu foco deslocado de uma frente policlassista para uma frente entre membros de uma mesma classe social cujas estratégias de ação política divergiam. A busca por uma síntese formal sugere a constituição de uma \"frente estética\" em que diferentes matrizes teóricas foram conjugadas, evidenciando a importância da pesquisa formal para o teatro engajado. No entanto, apesar dessas características convergentes, as peças não deixam de expressar tensões entre si e expõem os impasses e contradições que marcaram a modernização do Brasil nos anos 1970. / This work analyzes four brazilian plays from the 1970s: Um grito parado no ar (Gianfrancesco Guarnieri, 1973), Rasga coração (Oduvaldo Vianna Filho, 1974), Gota dágua (Chico Buarque e Paulo Pontes, 1975) and O último carro (João das Neves, 1964/1967-1976). Written by different playwrights, these plays are representative of a theatre project constituted in the 1970s, marked by attempts to retake brazilian stages with a dramaturgy whose main characteristics are the valorization of the word as the structuring axis of the plays, the investment in the search for a formal synthesis according to the historical matter to be represented and the reaffirmation of commitment to political engagement. The analysis of the plays allowed to identify the strong presence of elements of the communist political culture and the proximity of its discourse with the Brazilian Communist Party (PCB)s political project, which allowed to characterize them as dramaturgy of communist matrix. The attempts to retake the stage took place through a evaluation of theatrical practice in which the playwrights reaffirmed some of the assumptions they had had in the horizon of their dramaturgical writing until then, while attempting to abandon others. Trying to put aside the idealism with which they had read the Brazilian reality and the revolutionary teleology with which they had represented the popular characters, these playwrights did not abandon the defense of a strategy of resistance to the military regime through a front for redemocratization. But the front strategy appears reconfigured, with its focus shifting from a polyclassist front to a front among members of the same social class whose strategies for political action diverged. The search for a formal synthesis suggests the constitution of an \"aesthetic front\" in which different theoretical matrices were conjugated, evidencing the importance of the formal research for the engaged theater. However, despite these convergent characteristics, the plays express tensions among themselves and expose the impasses and contradictions that marked the modernization of Brazil in the 1970s.

Notre étude s’attache à cerner les figures du sujet lyrique dans la poésie de Jacques Dupin (1927- 2012), Philippe Jaccottet (1924- ) et Jacques Réda (1928- ), trois écrivains majeurs de l’après-guerre dont le travail poétique a contribué à l’évolution de la poésie lyrique contemporaine. Sans pour autant négliger l’œuvre antérieure et postérieure de ces poètes, notre étude se concentrera principalement sur les ouvrages des années 1960 et 1970. A cette période, en effet, la poésie lyrique s’est trouvée prise dans une situation critique sans précédent du fait l’avènement du structuralisme et du « textualisme » proclamé par l’avant-garde. En réaction au textualisme des années 1960 et 1970, Dupin, Jaccottet et Réda poursuivent une quête opiniâtre du lyrisme. Notre étude n’a pour but ni d’élaborer des critères globaux et universels afin de définir les caractéristiques universelles de la « poésie lyrique » en tant que genre littéraire, ni d’élaborer une réflexion philosophique sur le Sujet ou l’En-soi. A travers l’analyse des figures de sujet lyrique, nous étudierons les caractéristiques de chacun de nos poètes, ainsi que les modes de la poésie lyrique au cours de cette période malaisée. La notion de « sujet lyrique » nous servira de paramètre en vue d’éclairer la singularité et l’historicité des poèmes, voire de la poétique propre à chaque écrivain. Traditionnellement, la poésie lyrique est souvent associée à l’emphase ou au sentimentalisme. La poésie de Dupin, Jaccottet et Réda s’acharnent à se dégager de l’embrasse du lyrisme traditionnel encombré d’égocentrisme. La poésie lyrique n’est plus un genre qui exprime les sentiments et la subjectivité du poète. Nos poètes sont à la recherche d’une nouvelle forme de poésie lyrique, qui convienne à leur époque. L’impersonnalité, que nous trouvons souvent dans leur poétique, s’associe à la production d’une nouvelle modalité de la subjectivité, éloignée de la métaphysique de la subjectivité. Le refus d’une certaine forme de subjectivité coexiste avec la recherche d’une parole singulière, ainsi que d’une nouvelle figure de sujet lyrique. / Our study aims to examine the figures of the lyric subject in the poetry of Jacques Dupin (1927- 2012), Philippe Jaccottet (1924-) and Jacques Réda (1928-), three major poet of the postwar whose poetic work contributed to the evolution of contemporary lyric poetry.Without neglecting the anterior and posterior work of these poets, our study will focus mainly on the works of the 1960s and 1970s. At that time, in fact, the lyric was taken in a critical situation without precedent because of the advent of the structuralism and the “textualism” proclaimed by the avant-garde. In response to textualism of 1960s and 1970s, Dupin, Jaccottet and Réda continue an obstinate search of lyricism.Our study doesn’t aim to develop global and universal criteria to define the universal characteristics of "lyric poetry" as a literary genre, nor to develop a philosophical reflection on the subject or the En-soi. Through the analysis of the figures of lyric subject, we will study the characteristics of each of our poets, as well as patterns of lyric poetry during the difficult period. The notion of "lyric subject" will serve as a parameter in order to clarify the singularity and the historical nature of the poems, and those of the poetic peculiar to each writer.Traditionally, lyric poetry is often associated with the emphasis or sentimentality. The poetry of Dupin, Jaccottet and Reda struggle to free themselves from the traditional lyricism based on the egocentricity. Lyric poetry is no more a genre that expresses the feelings and subjectivity of the poet. Our poets are looking for a new form of lyrical poetry, which is suitable for the times. The impersonality, we often find in their poetic, is associated with the production of a new form of subjectivity, far from the metaphysics of subjectivity. The refusal of some form of subjectivity coexists with the search for a singular word and the new figure of lyric subject.
