Book Women   s Movements and the Filipina

Download or read book Women s Movements and the Filipina written by ROCES, MARIA NATIVIDAD and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2012-02-29 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about a fundamental aspect of the feminist project in the Philippines: rethinking the Filipino woman. It focuses on how contemporary women's organizations have represented and refashioned the Filipina in their campaigns to improve women's status by locating her in history, society and politics; imagining her past, present and future; representing her in advocacy; and identifying strategies to transform her. The drive to alter the situation of women included a political aspect (lobbying and changing legislation) and a cultural one (modifying social attitudes and women’s own assessments of themselves). In this work Mina Roces examines the cultural side of the feminist agenda: how activists have critiqued Filipino womanhood and engaged in fashioning an alternative woman. How did activists theorize the Filipina and how did they use this analysis to lobby for pro-women’s legislation or alter social attitudes? What sort of Filipina role models did women’s organizations propose, and how were these new ideas disseminated to the general public? What cultural strategies did activists deploy in order to gain a mass following? Analyzing data from over seventy five interviews with feminist activists, radio and television shows, romance novels, periodicals and books published by women’s organizations and feminist nuns, comics, newsletters, and personal papers, Roces shows how representations of the Filipino woman have been central to debates about women’s empowerment. She explores the transnational character of women’s activism and offers a seminal study on the important contributions of feminist Catholic nuns. Women’s Movements and the Filipina provides an original and passionate account of the contemporary feminist movement in the Philippines, bringing to light how women’s organizations have initiated change in cultural attitudes and had a significant impact on contemporary Philippine society.

Book Feminist Readings of Philippine Fiction

Download or read book Feminist Readings of Philippine Fiction written by Sylvia Mendez Ventura and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author detects the coexistence of feminist consciousness and its unconscious repression in short stories by Lilia Pablo Amansec, Edith L. Tiempo, Tita Lacambra-Ayala, Kerima Polotan, and Ines Taccad Cammayo. She also examines the representation of women by four male fictionists - Nick Joaquin, Rony V. Diaz, Gregorio C. Brillantes, and Jose Y. Dalisay, Jr. Except for young Dalisay, all these writers were most productive during the so-called Golden Age of Philippine Fiction in English, an age when feminism was a non-word in literary discourse. An analysis of their stories within the contemporary feminist environment opens them to fresh insights which the traditional male canon would normally overlook. This book thus hopes to develop an awareness of a fascinating activity, namely, reading as a woman, particularly a Filipino woman. But the reader need not be a woman to get the point.
