- Description
- The first part of the book examines representations of native women created by colonizing powers, assessing how these constructed images of gender and race were shaped by the ideological needs of the colonizers. The contributors look particularly at the ways in which colonizers constructed a national identity by creating a contrast with the colonial 'other,' in contexts ranging from Christian views of Islam women in medieval Spain to French beliefs about Native American women. Later contributions examine the ways in which images of gender as constructed by colonial powers impacted the lives of native women from colonial era India to Korea to Swaziland

- Description
- The contributors to this volume - including literary and filmtheorists, geographers, historians, sociologists, and anthropologists - show how the dominant colonial powers prefigured the ideologies of gender and sexuality that neocolonial nation-states have later refigured: investigate economic and artistic production: and explore labour, capital, and social change. The essays cover a range of locales, including Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Thailand, Singapore, Borneo, Indonesia, and the United States. In investigating issues of power, mobility, memory, and solidarity in recent eras of globalization, the contributors, illuminate various facets of the new concept of trans-status subjects.

- Description
- The contributors seek to legitimize the field's scholarship and address issues in terminology. They define the lesbian and gay anthropology's scope and subject matter and locate factors that separate it from the wider concerns of the profession. They track the emergence of lesbian and gay studies in social and cultural anthropology, linguistics, archaeology and in various areas of anthropological activism. They also consider how feminist anthropology helped define the field and how transgendered experience, queer theory, and race and class studies are promoting new directions of inquiry within lesbian and gay anthropology.

- 'No more separate spheres!' explores the limitations of thinking about nineteenth-century American culture within the narrow rubric of 'male public' and 'female private' spheres. This collection examines the ways that the separate spheres binary has malingered unexamined in feminist criticism, American literary studies, and debates on the public sphere. Using American literary studies as a way to talk about changing categories of analysis, these essays discuss the work of major authors as Catharine Sedgwick, Herman Melville, Pauline E. Hopkins, Frederick Douglass, Catherine Beecher, Ralph Waldo Emerson, W.E.B. Du Bois, Sarah Orne Jewett, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and María Ampara Ruiz de Burton.
