Nourished by space, time, and kin: Narrative mapping and American women's nonfiction.
Wallace, Kathleen Renee.

Nourished by space, time, and kin: Narrative mapping and American women's nonfiction. - 262 p.

Director: Robert L. Brown, Jr.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Minnesota, 1994.

"Nourished by Space, Time, and Kin: Narrative Mapping and American Women's Nonfiction" analyzes place--including natural, urban, cultural, and imagined spaces--in nonfiction by Audre Lorde, Gretel Ehrlich, Linda Hasselstrom, and other contemporary writers. Drawing upon scholarship from geography, postmodernism, ethnic studies, and ecofeminism, this study argues that place is both geographic location and cultural construction, and that narrative is an essential part of sense of place. The texts considered here exemplify a literary phenomenon and critical methodology I call "narrative mapping." These writers use narrative to create "maps" of geographic space and articulate "deep maps" of place by foregrounding issues of culture and identity.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a "Nourished by Space, Time, and Kin: Narrative Mapping and American Women's Nonfiction" analyzes place--including natural, urban, cultural, and imagined spaces--in nonfiction by Audre Lorde, Gretel Ehrlich, Linda Hasselstrom, and other contemporary writers. Drawing upon scholarship from geography, postmodernism, ethnic studies, and ecofeminism, this study argues that place is both geographic location and cultural construction, and that narrative is an essential part of sense of place. The texts considered here exemplify a literary phenomenon and critical methodology I call "narrative mapping." These writers use narrative to create "maps" of geographic space and articulate "deep maps" of place by foregrounding issues of culture and identity.
520 $a Hasselstrom, a South Dakotan rancher and writer, explicitly connects identity to her experience of place by questioning definitions of "rancher" that find her status as a woman and environmentalist detrimental to community conventions. She creates a narrative map of place by highlighting those stories and geographical features omitted by regional images and standard cartography. Gretel Ehrlich, a Wyoming rancher and writer, challenges Western dualisms through which Americans typically approach place by focusing upon Eastern geographic locations (such as Japan) and philosophies (such as Zen Buddhism). As a result, Ehrlich pursues epistemologies of place that highlight language not as cultural artifact, but as natural, human phenomenon. Audre Lorde, African American, feminist, lesbian, poet, and essayist, questions links between geographic locations and identity when she finds that her ancestral home in Carriacou has been omitted from atlases. Place, for Lorde then, is created through conscious evocations of home and woman-centered kinship.
520 $a By inserting a conscious examination of narrative into place-based scholarship, this study significantly revises interpretations of nature/regional writers like Hasselstrom and Ehrlich while opening place-based scholarship and ecological literary criticism to consider urban locations and texts by writers of color like Lorde. The dissertation's final chapter reconsiders Minnesota's regional identity through a parallel reading of Euro-American and African-American women's personal narratives from the Twin Cities.
