question
Herve Guibert |
answer
– writing about the effects of AIDS on his body until his death: ‘living in death’. Rejects doctor’s clinical language stating that it does not match his own experiences (when his CD4 count is low, he is feeling fine etc), rejected AZT and embraced death: this is the book that did not save his life. • Immersive piece – To the friend who did not save my life (1990): frantic, talks about Foucault (betrayal or moral imperative to tell the truth?) play called Modesty and Shame |
question
Hollinghurst (2004) |
answer

Written much later – neither immersive nor counter-immersive: looking back at AIDS in the 1980s and 1990s rather than attempting to create new meaning (more radical styles of writing at time). Critiques Thatcher’s Britain – looking at politics rather than his own experience of AIDS. Nick,Leo and Wani |

A counter-immersive piece: looks at the history of the medicalization of AIDS, treating gays as ‘subjects’. |
question
Randy Shiltz (1987) |
answer
looks at the US spread of AIDS within the gay community: • How narratives around the gay groups changed from ‘carefree’ (e.g. the free Castro District – liberal, gay sexuality) to seen as ‘deadly infections’. Closure of bath houses. Distinction between policy and practice – AIDS being the ‘number 1 health priority’ but not given any extra funding by the CDC.Lack of government action around AIDS, but huge amount of support for the Legionnaire’s Disease due to it being a public emergency ($34,000 per death compared to $8000) |
question
