Counteractive Strategies In Colonial And Postcolonial Narratives Of Memory: Joseph Conrad’S Heart Of Darkness And Anita Desai’S Clear Light Of Day, Rizwan Akhtar Feb 2013

Counteractive Strategies In Colonial And Postcolonial Narratives Of Memory: Joseph Conrad’S Heart Of Darkness And Anita Desai’S Clear Light Of Day, Rizwan Akhtar

Social Transformations Journal of the Global South

This paper examines the role of memory in colonial and postcolonial literary narratives. In postcolonial and colonial literary discourse, memory spaces are fiercely contested. Joseph Conrad’s Heart of Darkness (1906) and Anita Desai’s Clear Light of Day (1980) are respectively colonial and postcolonial narratives in which indigenous and colonial subjects configure preserving their ways of remembrance. Colonial ways of remembrance collide with indigenous ways of remembrance. The colonial subject imposes its ways of remembrance on indigenous subject. Consequently, the indigenous subject counteracts the colonial ways of remembrance.

Higher Than The Original Stands The Translation: Translating Heidegger Into Filipino, Remmon E. Barbaza Jan 2013

Higher Than The Original Stands The Translation: Translating Heidegger Into Filipino, Remmon E. Barbaza

Philosophy Department Faculty Publications

This paper is a reflection on the author’s experience of translating Martin Heidegger into Filipino. It first addresses the questions of principles underlying the act of translation, such as those of fidelity (to both source and target languages, original author and translator), as well as the role of the translator as an intermediary between the original author and the readers. Then it demonstrates examples of his experience of translating selected key terms and passages in Heidegger—such as sein, stellen, Ereignis, and their cognates—indicating the difficulties as well as the challenges that arise in the work of translation. A notable problem …


The Nationalization Of Religion: Cultural Performances And The Youth Of Soka Singapore, Jayeel Cornelio Jan 2013

The Nationalization Of Religion: Cultural Performances And The Youth Of Soka Singapore, Jayeel Cornelio

Development Studies Faculty Publications

Soka is known in Singapore for its cultural performances in events such as the National Day Parade and Chingay. This is part of Soka’s attempts to present itself as a cultural organization working for peace and progress in Singapore. Participating in these performances is common among the youth of Soka. In this paper I focus on young people’s participation as a form of religious patriotism. For them, it is about sending a message that individual and collective struggles can be overcome and that peace and harmony can be fostered. I then analyze these nuances in terms of the nationalization of …


Grounding The International Norm On Women, Peace And Security: The Role Of Domestic Norm Entrepreneurs And The Challenges Ahead, Ma. Lourdes Veneracion-Rallonza Jan 2013

Grounding The International Norm On Women, Peace And Security: The Role Of Domestic Norm Entrepreneurs And The Challenges Ahead, Ma. Lourdes Veneracion-Rallonza

Political Science Department Faculty Publications

One of the gaps in the study of international norms is the process by which they are institutionalized and accepted at the national level. As the international norm negotiates its way through various national (and even grassroots) levels, a point of inquiry would be how domestic norm entrepreneurs have enabled its localization. This study looks at the narrative of a loose network of peace and women’s human rights groups that worked together to localize United Nations Security Council Resolution (UNSCR) 1325 on women, peace and security in the Philippines. Specifically, it reviews how the network evolved to become a domestic …


Chanted Landscapes, Fernando N. Zialcita Jan 2013

Chanted Landscapes, Fernando N. Zialcita

Sociology & Anthropology Department Faculty Publications

Landscapes within, landscapes without. Contrary to positivist science, the boundary between our body and the world is indefinite and shifting. When I experience space, according to the phenomenologist Maurice Merleau-Ponty (1964: 59), I do not experience it as “an exterior wrap.” Instead, “I see space from within, I am enfolded by it… rather than the world being in front of me, it is around me.” Moreover, in our experience there is a constant interplay between the open and the closed, between the within and the without, between the here and the yonder, between inner space and outer space, writes Gaston …


Youth In Interfaith Dialogue: Intercultural Understanding And Its Implications On Education In The Philippines, Jayeel Cornelio, Timothy Andrew E. Salera Dec 2012

Youth In Interfaith Dialogue: Intercultural Understanding And Its Implications On Education In The Philippines, Jayeel Cornelio, Timothy Andrew E. Salera

Development Studies Faculty Publications

In the wake of religious conflicts around the world, interfaith dialogues are being introduced to facilitate intercultural and religious understanding and tolerance. Although the participation of young people in interfaith dialogue and its impact on education is crucial to its sustainability, the literature on youth and interfaith has been very limited. This article addresses this gap by probing the significance or impact of interfaith on the views of our youth respondents on other religions. The view of our youth respondents show that interfaith dialogues do not have to begin and end in theological discussions. To them, the significance of interfaith …

The Dolor’S Traslacion Ritual As Conflict And Compromise, Ramon Felipe Sarmiento Dec 2012

The Dolor’S Traslacion Ritual As Conflict And Compromise, Ramon Felipe Sarmiento

Philippine Studies: Historical and Ethnographic Viewpoints

Thisarticle traces the history and meaning of the traslacion or ritualtransfer of the Marian image Dolor in Catanduanes province betweenthe origin village and the parish center. In the course of the twentiethcentury, the location of the image and the control of its devotion have been contested. The ritual first emerged as a compromise between advocates of popular and institutional devotional forms, which eventuated in the fullblown religious procession at present. However, the persistent struggle between the parish center and the village has made the traslacion into an arena for enacting power and the politics of place.Keywords: ritualization • religion • …

Progressive Entanglements Religious Intimacy In Japanese–Filipino Marriages, Mario Ivan Lopez Jun 2012

Progressive Entanglements Religious Intimacy In Japanese–Filipino Marriages, Mario Ivan Lopez

Philippine Studies: Historical and Ethnographic Viewpoints

Studies on international marriages often focus on how gender, sexuality, race, and ethnicity are constructed and articulated through the migration process. The influence of religion as one articulator in migrants’ lives and its influence on the family tend to be ignored, but arguably individuals’ faith must be included in the research agenda. Using ethnographic examples, thisarticle traces the religious practices that develop in the lives of some Japanese–Filipino couples. Thisarticle highlights not just the transnational mobility of migrants, but also the movement of their faith and its potential impact on intimate relations within migrant homes and communities postmigration.


Difference And Alliance In Transnational Social Fields The Pendular Identity Of The Filipino Middle Class, Koki Seki Jun 2012

Difference And Alliance In Transnational Social Fields The Pendular Identity Of The Filipino Middle Class, Koki Seki

Philippine Studies: Historical and Ethnographic Viewpoints

Thisarticle offers a cultural analysis of Filipino middle-class identity emerging in transnational social fields. Although the practice of identity construction of the middle class leads to polarization and fragmentation of society, the ambivalent character of their identity results in social networks and alliances with members of different social classes in the Philippines. Thisarticle provides an approach to understand seemingly discrete and contrasting dual aspects—of differentiation and alliance, exclusion and inclusion, and plurality and unity—found in transnational social fields through an alternative framework of civil society and public sphere in the Philippines and other parts of the globalizing world.
