Decolonizing Feminisms: Race, Gender and Empire Building

by Donaldson, Laura E
No customer reviews yet ISBN 9780807843826 The University of North Carolina Press

Donaldson presents new paradigms of interpretation that help to bring the often oppositional stances of First versus Third World and traditional versus postmodern feminism into a more constructive relationship. She situates contemporary theoretical debates about reading, writing, and the politics of identity within the context of historical colonialism -- primarily under the English in the nineteenth century.

Silence That Speaks: Short Stories by Indian Muslim Women
This ground-breaking anthology brings together 38 short stories culled from<br>over a century of writing by Muslim women from colonial and postcolonial<br>India. Selected from different Indian languages, it includes fascinating stories<br>by celebrated and emerging authors. It also excavates stories from early women's<br>journals such as Tehzeeb-e-Niswan, Saogat, and Indian Ladies' Magazine.<br>Written in different styles, modes, and forms, the stories deconstruct cultural<br>essentialism often involved in imagining Muslim womanhood and reflect upon<br>the diversity of imagined and lived experiences. They challenge sundry labels, <br>explore intersections of identities, debunk several myths, and demonstrate how<br>the authors navigate the world of voices and silences. Ranging from imaginary<br>geographies to topographies of Muslim ghettos, most of these powerful stories<br>narrate the spaces that Muslim women inhabit, and delineate their courage, <br>desires, freedom, struggle, and myriad subjectivities.
