Tolkien’s Homosexual Landscape: Three Papers on Middle-earth’s Heterotopias
Will Sherwood
Marita Arvaniti
Mariana Rios Maldonado
11:00 AM - 11:50 AM
The tracking papers will explore Tolkien’s homosexual landscapes of Middle-earth: from Arda’s highest peaks and hidden underbellies, to her liminal, fae places, using the lens of Michel Foucault’s heterotopias.
Marita Arvaniti will launch the panel and discuss Tolkien’s Faerian Drama and its partnership to the much-maligned Tom Bombadil episode, focusing on the gender non-conforming figure of Tom Bombadil himself and his heterotopic domain.
Mariana Rios Maldonado will analyse the Barrow-downs, Dead Marshes, and Paths of the Dead as symbolic sites of death created during harrowing moments in the history of Middle-earth. These are no-places: spaces of Otherness containing the wicked and accursed; borders between the living and the undead; and frozen “slices in time” from which
In “Les Stroud’s Wild Harvest,” time seems to lazy down as we survey Les forage for diet around his Oregon abode while chef Paul Rogalski cooks what Les gathers. It may seem rare now, but it’s something humans have done for centuries before stores and markets existed. While it’s been airing on Construct, just in time for Earth Day, this month KLCS features the exhibit on our Saturday afternoon cooking block. We discuss exclusively to Chef Paul, from his home in Canada, as he shares how the show came to air on PBS, how Julia Child influenced him and how key it is to adore the process of foraging and cooking, even if a dish may be deemed a failure.
Chef Paul, how did you join with Les Stroud on this show? It’s a good pairing with Les foraging and you cooking his findings, is that mostly how that works?
Oh man, this is a great story. Les and I met years ago on set for a television series I was cast for, Les was a special guest. We were in Mexico and essentially we were hanging out on the beach one night licking our wounds after filming. We started talking, “Hey, wouldn’t it be a cool idea if we had a show where I gathered things and brought them to you and you cooked them.” We

One bloke. Five cameras. Seven solitary days in the wilds of the Sonoran Desert. Les Stroud has been through some unforgiving experiences surrounded by the harshest of terrains while filming his Revelation Channel series "Survivorman."
Each episode finds the outdoor enthusiast alone in the wilderness, documenting his adventures as he shots to conquer his environment solely on wits and know-how.
Stroud came through the Southern Arizona desert for one of the show's very first episodes, but he had very little to criticize about during his stay.
"In a way, I had it a bit simple there," the survival instructor said in a phone interview from his northern Ontario home. "I chose to travel when it wasn't that hot. From a survival perspective, it ranked lofty in being easier. There were a number of things I could ingest. There was fresh water. It became a beautiful encounter rather than a rough one."
