This dissertation, "Electronic Outlaws:w(r)iting the repressed," is an attempt to work in ecriture feminine, or "woman writing," as defined by Helene Cixous in "The Laugh of the Medusa," with a pedagogical strategy as an implication for the writing. The method of writing I have developed is called scripting. The dissertation is based on a performance art piece by the same name as the dissertation and I ground my ideas in the theoretical framework utilized for the performance. / The preface sets forth the ideas for the theoretical framework of scripting and suggests that scripting is a way to express the repression this culture imposes. The introduction and next two chapters are essays explaining the theoretical basis for chapter three. Chapter three is a transcription of a performance piece by the same name as the dissertation and is the experiment in woman writing. Chapter four is a discussion of how scripting may be used in the classroom. Appendix A is a video of the entire dissertation and Appendix B contains programs from the performance of "Electronic Outlaws." / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 55-09, Section: A, page: 2836. / Major Professor: Sheila Taylor. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--The Florida State University, 1994.
