Abstract:
The evolving political landscape of a multicultural America grown disenchanted with the mythology of the melting pot had vast repercussions for the Jewish American literary imagination. Nonetheless, critical race theory has yet to take full stock of the role of Jewish writers in the debates over canonicity, representation, and multicultural literary genealogies occurring in the United States during the 1980s and 1990s. Philip Roth's The Human Stain, published in 2000, directly engages questions of literary history, race, and the position of the Jewish writer and intellectual in the canon wars. By depicting the tragedy of an African American man who passes into whiteness by passing for a Jewish professor, Roth uses the trope of passing to simultaneously critique the puritan impulse he perceives at the heart of the multicultural academy and write himself into the multicultural canon taking shape at the time.

Abstract:
The paper dissects the notion of the American Dream in Philip Roth's The Human Stain. It looks at how individual tenets of the Dream are carved into the protagonist Coleman Silk, a black man who goes through life pretending to be white. The analysis shows how these same principles are questioned through various incidents in Silk's life and ultimately by his violent death. The result of Roth's scrutinizing is that, as all the underminings come together, the whole concept of the American Dream is symbolically crushed.

Abstract:
“Manifold creatures” is a description used by Philip Roth to characterize who we are as human beings. The essay that follows first examines our manifoldness and our creatureliness as well as our attempts to become more humane and humanistic in our lives and views. However, the recent surge in interest in notions of transhumanism and posthumanism may be seen as direct challenges or even threats to humanism as a viable political and social stance. The essay concludes with the claim that a humanized humanism or an actively self-critical humanism is sufficiently strong to resist any of the challenges thrown down by militant posthumanists.

Full text
Abstract:
Set against the backdrop of the lower class in America, the novel Sabbath’s Theater, which can be interpreted as a “memory’s museum of earthly blight” (Roth, 1996, p. 353), unveils a panorama of how an innocent and ingenuous boy degenerates into a dissolute and lascivious puppeteer. Mickey Sabbath, the protagonist of the novel, is described as a decadent libertine whose lustful cupidity does not subdue in the wake of his ongoing senility. Working as a puppeteer, Sabbath shrewdly turns his fingers into a pragmatic tool of subsistence and more sardonically, a licentious hook of sexuality. He epitomizes every desperate and listless loser who languishes in a dilemma between life and death. However, the law of nature has no mercy for the defeated. Like “one of billions who has grown old, ugly and embittered” (Roth, 1996, p. 143), Sabbath, at the age of sixty four, is confronted with a battery of crises—he becomes “wifeless, mistressless, penniless, vocationless and homeless” (Roth, 1996, p. 142). Enveloped in desperation and fatalism, Sabbath sets foot upon a journey toward the ultimate destination of death, during which he recalls his “motherless” childhood, his disillusioned adolescence, his youthful debauchery in whorehouses, and his irrevocable self-abandonment to puppets and women. Philip Roth compares puppetry into a “faultlessly rendered duet” (Roth, 1996, p. 438), shedding light on the cohesive juxtaposition of two divergent identities in a puppet show. This research focuses on why and how Mickey Sabbath’s outrageous abuse of identity transplantation becomes a scourge of his perversion. The concept of “puppetness” is introduced in this paper to account for the quasi-human attributes of puppets and the trinity relationship among puppets, puppeteers, and audiences. The distinctive power of puppets in emotional appeal makes them a soul-stirring agent that mediate through performers and audiences. Psychoanalysis is expected to be an optimal theory to approach to “puppetness” in this empathetic scenario.

Abstract:
Is racial passing passé? Not according to contemporary book sales. The theme remains central to at least three recent best sellers: Danzy Senna's Caucasia, Colson Whitehead's The Intuitionist, and Philip Roth's The Human Stain. Roth's novel made it to the big screen this fall, just as Devil in a Blues Dress, the adaptation of Walter Mosley's novel starring Denzel Washington, did in 1995. Renewed academic attention is being paid, of late, to “classic” passing narratives; once-ignored ones, including Charles Chesnutt's The House Behind the Cedars, are being revived; and still others being reread in the context of passing.

Abstract:
Just as James Joyce is the most important writer since Shakespeare, his Jewish-Irish character, Ulysses’ Leopold Bloom, is the most fascinating fictional Jew since Shylock. All authors must struggle with Joyce’s overwhelming legacy, but what of writers who are themselves Jewish? How do they envisage Bloom and relate to his complex sense of identity—as a Jew, as an Irishman, but most fundamentally as a human being? The three greatest Jewish American writers of the twentieth century, Philip Roth, Bernard Malamud, and Saul Bellow, were all deeply influenced by Joyce. Each of them responded to Joyce’s masterpiece by rewriting it from the perspective of an American Jew—just as Ulysses itself is an Irish rewriting of Homer’s Odyssey. What draws these authors to Joyce? Is it their shared heritage of exile and a lost homeland, or Joyce’s powerful use of language? When asked how one can tell if a novel is Jewish ...

Abstract:
The images of the clown and the freak and representations of the grotesque body are recurrent motifs in modern Jewish literature, film, art, theatre and dance. Kafka’s novella Metamorphosis is an early prototype of the changeling who leaves conventional human appearance behind and is gradually transformed into an insect-like creature. The story served as a prototype for Woody Allen’s film Zelig, in which the main protagonist adopts a variety of different personas, amongst them a Nazi in the Third Reich. The theme of morphing into a freak, clown, or grotesque body reappears in various forms in contemporary Jewish culture and art: The American Jewish writer Philip Roth declared in the 1960s that he was not a Jewish sage but a Jewish freak. Freakishness, clowns, and the circus have a subversive potential: they constitute a digression from what is considered normal appearance and behaviour and play with presumptions, expectations, and social values. A study of this subject reveals the constant dialogue between religion and culture as far as Judaism is concerned.

Abstract:
Abstract Immune checkpoint blockade is effective for a subset of patients across many cancers, but most patients are refractory to current immunotherapies and new approaches are needed to overcome resistance. The protein tyrosine phosphatase PTPN2 is a central regulator of inflammation, and genetic deletion of PTPN2 on either tumor cells or host immune cells promotes anti-tumor immunity. However, inhibitors of PTPN2 have not been described. Here, we present the validation of ABBV-CLS-484, a potent catalytic inhibitor of PTPN2 and the closely related phosphatase PTPN1. ABBV-CLS-484 treatment of tumor cells in vitro phenocopies the genetic deletion of PTPN2/N1, causing both amplified transcriptional responses to IFNg and reduced cell viability across human cancer cell lines. Monotherapy ABBV-CLS-484 treatment generates robust anti-tumor immunity in several murine cancer models with efficacy comparable to anti-PD-1 treatment. Through genetic studies, we show that while ABBV-CLS-484 can act on both tumor cells and the host immune system, IFN sensing and PTPN2/N1 expression on tumor cells are not always required for efficacy, suggesting that PTPN2/N1 inhibition on host immune cells may be sufficient for activity of the drug. Through scRNAseq profiling of TILs from both ABBV-CLS-484-treated and anti-PD-1-treated tumors, we show that ABBV-CLS-484 induces unique transcriptional changes to both myeloid and lymphoid populations in the tumor microenvironment which are dominated by enhanced IFN sensing and a shift from suppressive to pro-inflammatory phenotypes. ABBV-CLS-484 treatment enhances the activation and effector functions of CD8+ T cells while decreasing the expression of genes classically associated with T cell exhaustion and dysfunction such as Tox. The efficacy of ABBV-CLS-484 is critically dependent on CD8+ T cells and treatment with ABBV-CLS-484 results in greater levels of T cell infiltration into tumors and a more diverse repertoire of expanded T cell clones relative to anti-PD-1. Thus, the PTPN2/N1 inhibitor ABBV-CLS-484 is a highly effective immunotherapy with monotherapy efficacy across mouse tumor models. Small molecule inhibitors of PTPN2 offer a promising new strategy for cancer immunotherapy by targeting an IFN signaling checkpoint and are currently being evaluated clinically in patients with advanced solid tumors (NCT04777994).

LIBERDADE, IDENTIDADE E DIREITO:SOBRE A INDELÉVEL MARCA HUMANA EM PHILIP ROTH FREEDOM, IDENTITY, AND LAW: ON THE INDELIBLE HUMAN STAIN IN PHILIP ROTH Gisele Cittadino* RESUMO: A partir do romance A Marca Humana, de Philip Roth, esse texto pretende discutir como o direito pode assegurar às pessoas a possibilidade de redefinirem sua identidade, especialmente diante das múltiplas formas de discriminação racial, social e religiosa existentes nas sociedades contemporâneas. Partindo da configuração moderna de que o indivíduo é sujeito capaz de autorreflexão e crítica, escolhemos o protagonista de Philip Roth para mostrar que o homem das democracias atuais tem a capacidade de se comportar reflexivamente em relação à própria subjetividade, endossando valores ou libertando-se de compromissos. Nessa última hipótese, é preciso garantir-lhe o direito de “pular fora”. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Identidade. Discriminação Racial. Direito de “pular fora”. ABSTRACT: From the Human Stain, a novel written by Philip Roth, this text intends to discuss how law can assure people the possibility to redefine their identity, especially considering the multiples forms of racial, social, and religious discriminations that exists in the contemporary societies. Starting from the modern configuration that the individual is a subject capable of self-reflection and criticism, we choose the leading figure of Philip Roth’s novel to show that the human being in the modern democracies has the ability to behave reflectively regarding their own subjectivity, endorsing values or freeing up from commitments. In this latter hypothesis, it is needed to ensure him the right to “step out”. KEYWORDS: Identity. Racial Discrimination.

Abstract:
In September of 2012, the American novelist Philip Roth published an open letter to Wikipedia in The New Yorker. “I am Philip Roth,” it began, and proceeded to explain how the editors of Wikipedia had gotten the inspiration for his novel The Human Stain wrong. Though the article had in fact only mentioned a theory about his sources, Roth was adamant that it did not belong anywhere in a discussion of his novel. He wanted the idea removed entirely. This, it turns out, was a profound misunderstanding of the editorial practices of Wikipedia, and the theory that Roth would prefer we forget remains in the article to this day. His letter in The New Yorker, of course, is duly cited. How well should librarians understand the editorial process behind Wikipedia’s articles? In this workshop, we will take a practical approach to the problem and have a look at what goes on behind the scenes, even edit some pages if we feel so inclined. The workshop will be led by Thomas Basbøll, a philosopher and writing consultant who has spent a few years working as a volunteer editor at Wikipedia and even has even been banned from editing certain pages for a time. The overall goal of the workshop is to demystify one of the most accessed sources of knowledge in the world and help librarians decide how to best help people like Philip Roth, and his readers, make sense of its “authority”. Thomas Basbøll is the resident writing consultant at the Copenhagen Business School Library. He holds an MA in philosophy from the University of Copenhagen, and a PhD from the Copenhagen Business School. He works closely with students, teachers and researchers in their attempts to master “the craft of research” and is an avid blogger (blog.cbs.dk/inframethodology/).

Abstract:
The works of Philip Roth are no doubt outstanding and brilliant examples of denial of traditional and established Judaism. Just like the non-Jewish contemporaries as well as the predecessors, the Jewish writers in the last half of the twentieth century have contributed a great arrangement to the secularization of Jewish and American life. His novels present the enormity of the American Jewish trouble in relation to Israel and Arab conflict over the Promised Land. The works of Roth mark a new current in Jewish American fiction. Deception is an admirable and penetrative work of self-representation. These works exceeds the ordinary levels of living and touches the real meaning of postmodernist paradoxical existence. They also contribute to the postmodernist beliefs of chaotic, disordered relationships and confused requirements of the human self.

Abstract:
Philip Roth’s Nemesis is a unique novel which categorically lays stress on powerful and burning existential outrage of the writer through the character, Bucky Cantor. Nemesis perfectly portrays the anxiety, fear and the hopelessness created by the polio epidemic in the Newark Jewish community through the character of the twenty-three-years-old, Bucky Cantor. In his writing, Roth explores the terrible impacts of the epidemic, the explanation of which resemble with that of the current coronavirus pandemic. As the epidemic kills people and leave the survivors with permanent disability; the protagonist himself is getting affected by it. Roth deals deeply with the protagonist’s inner conflicts and the existential angst experienced by him, as he becomes more and more disillusioned with his own beliefs. It is not so arduous a task to notice even in the first reading of the novel, the recurring instances of the protagonist reeling under the burden of existential crisis and who is apparently seen to be in a perpetual conflict with himself, to the extent that he feels, “the only way to save a remnant of his honour was in denying himself everything he had ever wanted for himself” (262). Though existentialism as a philosophy became popular during the twentieth century after the World War I and continued to have its sway through the Great Depression and the World War II, its relevance in the contemporary times cannot be ignored, especially when humanity as a whole is still stuck in the trauma of the irreparable devastation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, which again perfectly parallels the plot of Nemesis where the impetus which initiates the existential crisis in the protagonist is the tragic event of the polio epidemic. Regarded as one of the ‘fathers of existentialism’ along with Friedrich Nietzsche (Flynn 3), Kierkegaard’s philosophical concepts which constructs on the human condition and his views on notions such as self-realization, anxiety, despair, tragedy and the search for meaning are particularly inviting to apply those concepts to Roth’s Nemesis which would eventually render a new dimension and appreciation for the novel.

Abstract:
This paper reevaluates the fundamental status of Coleman Silk in Philip Roth’s The Human Stain and Oedipus in Sophocles' Oedipus Rex by testing their characters against Aristotelian tragic hero's elements. In spite of the verifiable comparisons to Oedipus, Coleman is not a neglected figure, but a subverted one that underpins Roth's proposal of "the different nature" of inconceivable postmodern American tragedy. In Philip Roth’s The Human Stain, the protagonist Coleman Silk is implicitly linked to Sophocles' classical figure Oedipus in Oedipus Rex. The plot is interwoven with allusions to Greek tragedies, but in The Human Stain Coleman lacks the stature and the real character of Oedipus. In addition, Coleman lacks, to some extent, the real elements of a tragic hero that constitute the Catharsis: the process of releasing and providing relief; a conflict which raises the question; is Coleman really a tragic hero? According to Aristotle, the tragic hero should experience a dilemma and a massive transformation from valuable standards to lower depth, and this person should suffer particularly after committing a mistake, or even thinking about his past deeds. The tragic hero should be relatively a commendable person whose comeuppance is brought about by his own fallacies which he did not commit out of defect or wickedness, but out of his own serendipity. Following the ancient Greek concept which asserts that fluke is associated with actions, Coleman is a fortuitous man at first, unlike Oedipus, despite being born as a black man. Because of this unlucky fact, he is capable of changing his identity and rising up to the level of preeminence.
