From Madame Butterfly To M. Butterfly: Changing Narratives Of Oriental Womanhood, Nam Do

Armstrong Undergraduate Journal of History

Throughout its performance history, Madame Butterfly (1904) by Giacomo Puccini has

attracted significant intrigue and controversies. Through its protagonist Cio-Cio San, the opera

depicts Asian femininity as weak-willed, servile and ultimately powerless in the face of Western

forces. This paper will examine the trajectory of this narrative of Orientalism through Madame

Butterfly and its two modern adaptations, Miss Saigon (1989) and M. Butterfly (1993). Through an analysis of both informal and formal sources, this study will show how the Orientalist womanhood is first accepted and embraced by the native audiences of Madame Butterfly, is rejected by the audiences of Miss …

South East Coastal Conference on Languages & Literatures (SECCLL)

En este trabajo se realiza una lectura del film uruguayo 23 Segundos (2014, dirigido por Dimitry Rudakov). Un punto de entrada al mismo nos remite a los conceptos de acción/inacción, desde donde la intriga toma cuerpo y comienza a formarse. A partir de esto, se focaliza en el personaje principal de Emiliano, y en su recorrido por Montevideo, recorrido que se transforma a lo largo de la película en una forma de adquisición de conocimiento sobre sí mismo y los demás. Esto lo lleva ultimamente a un cambio de vida, a la superación de la alienación y la rutina. Es …
