WOMEN Feminism a current listing of contents Volume 8, Number 1 Spring 1988 Published by Susan Searing, Women's Studies Librarian University of Wisconsin System 1 12A Memorial Library 728 State Street Madison, Wisconsin 53706 (608) 263-5754 a current li tina of content Volume 8, Number 1 Spring 1988 Periodical literature is the cutting edge of women's scholarship, feminist theory, and much of women's culture. Feminist Periodicals: A Current Listing of Contents is published by the Office of the University of Wisconsin System Gmen's Studies Librarian on a quarterly basis with the intent of increasing public awareness of feminist periodicals. It is our hope that Feminist Periodicals will serve several purposes: to keep the reader abreast of current topics in feminist literature; to increase readers' familiarity with a wide spectrum of feminist periodicals; and to provide the requisite bibliographic information should a reader wish to subscribe to a journal or to obtain a particular article at her library or through interlibrary loan. (Users will need to be aware of the limitations of the new copyright law with regard to photocopying of copyrighted materi a1 s .) Table of contents pages from current issues of major feminist journals are reproduced i n each issue of Femi ni st Periodical s , preceded by a comprehensi ve annotated 1isti ng of a1 1 journals we have selected. As publ ication schedul es vary enormously, not every periodical will have table of contents pages reproduced in each issue of -FP. The annotated listing provides the following information on each journal : Year of first publication. Frequency of publ ication. 1J.S. subscription price(s) . Subscripti on address. Current editor. Editorial address (if different from subscription address). International Standard Seri a1 s Number (ISSN) . 1-i brary of Congress (LC) catalog card number. OCLC, Inc. Control Number. Locations where the journal is held in the UW System. Publications in which the journal is indexed. Subject focusjstatement of purpose of the journal. Please note that in the actual text, only the numbers 1 to 12 are used to identi fy the different categories of information . ii. Our goal is to have represented in FP a1 1 English-language feminist periodicals with a substanti a1 national or regional readership, with an I emphasis on scholarly journals and small press offerings. We do not include I publications which, though feminist in philosophy, do not focus solely on women's issues. Nor, with few exceptions, do we include newsstand magazi nes. We are also forced to omit periodicals which lack a complete table of contents. We encourage feminist serials to build a full table of contents I into their regular format to facilitate the indexing feminist literature so re1y needs.

THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN ENGLISH UNIVERSITY OF NORTHERN BRITISH COLUMBIA August 2018. © Adebayo Coker, 2018 ii Abstract Culture and religion are some of the oppressive tools being used to subjugate the fundamental rights of women in Nigeria. The need is for a nexus amongst the different fragments of feminism to speak against customs of exploitation and subjugation, but not at the expense of the good culture of the land and in a way not to create loss of identity. To get the message across, some real stories must be told. Aligning narrative craft to share the different experiences that I have witnessed firsthand or told me by the victims of these vast injustices is the focus of this thesis, so the world may learn that there are these experiences and fundamental gender oppressions still exist. iii Table of Contents Abstract ii Table of Contents iii Acknowledgement iv Introduction 1 Clannish Claw 18 Begging Mercy 42 Papal Entreatment 62 Amiss Nowhere 81 What Suzzie Wants 86 Table D'Hote 89 Fargin 92 Works Cited 100 References 102 iv Acknowledgement My Canada immigration story started in Fall 2016.

    Turner 1 Nicole Turner Charles Klinetobe American History Since 1865 2 June 2019 Gender Representation in Film: Empowering Women One Role at a Time These past couple of years have made tremendous strides towards gender equality in media, and particularly film, on camera and behind the scenes. Between the Me Too movements and the fights for equal pay for men and women, the film industry has very publicly been shamed into making changes. But on screen there is a fight for equality as well. In 2014, a whopping 71.9% of speaking roles in film was attributed to men, leaving only 28.1% for female characters. However, in 2017 the percentage of female speaking roles jumped to 31.8% (​MDSC Initiative “Distribution”)​. While the divide between men and women in film has lessened, it has not disappeared. Not to mention the female representation in film that could be even more harmful to gender equality. While quantity can contribute to representation, it is also important to look at the quality. Gender representation in media, particularly film, is unequal in it’s female concentrated blockbusters, female directors, and pay between female and male actors. Film is a giant industry. In 2016, $38.6 billion was made globally from movies. $27.2 billion of those dollars came exclusively from the box office*. The box office is a term that refers to the place where a ticket is sold. This means that a majority of money made from films is made from ticket sales to theaters. Following a basic business logic, that you should put your money towards the most profitable endeavors, this means that studios focus on producing movies that draw in moviegoers.

(Washington Post)For the millions of readers who devoured the Green Gables series, Before Green Gables is an irresistible treat; the account of how one of literatures most beloved heroines became the girl who captivated the world. As an avid Anne of Green Gables fan, I was desperately wishing for some Anne material that I hadnt read six times already. This was a pretty good attempt on such material. I thought the author really captured Anne well, and thought up some really good back story material. The characters, even the bad ones, werent one-dimensional, so she didnt really make out Anne to be a victim which was so appreciated. However, the stories are very sad for the most part, and of course theyre missing just that spark that only L.M. Montgomery could put into them. Of course, it is fitting because Annes surroundings werent as charming and idyllic as they were in Montgomerys stories, so the book is a good fit into what we know of Annes background.

Indeed, her first film, Filmography 4 EXPOSURE (1990) constituted an important contribution to the National Film Board’s About the Filmmaker 4 Five Feminist Minutes program out of the women’s Studio D, and EXPOSURE was About the Author 5 recently characterized as “the first NFB lesbian documentary in terms of both public authorial identity and explicit subject matter” (Waugh 155). Structured CREDITS 5 around a living-room conversation between writers Mona Oikawa and Leleti Tamu, contrasts and convergences between Japanese Canadian and Black communities are shared, and more particularly, lesbian community affiliations emerge through the evocation of the literatures (Audre Lord, Makeda Silvera), artworks (Grace Channer, Sharon Fernandez, Stephanie Martin) and music of women of colour (Ahdri Zhina Mandiela) that are woven through this short eight-minute film. Notwithstanding the pressures of such an auspicious career launch and moniker, what emerges from Mohabeer’s broader reflections is her desire for her films to be considered for their poetics, their experimental aural and visual strategies—what she has described as a “hybrid-pastiche blurring of experimental documentary and narrative forms” (Cooper 45). Indeed, in Mohabeer’s films, form and content are inextricable one from the other.

    ARTICLES Complutense Journal of English Studies ISSN: 2386-3935 http://dx.doi.org/10.5209/CJES.54661 The Female Body as the Site of Male Violence during the Partition of India in Bapsi Sidhwa’s Ice-Candy-Man Arunima Dey1 Abstract. This paper on Bapsi Sidhwa’s Ice-Candy-Man intends to undertake a comprehensive investigation of various forms of gendered violence during the partition of India. An analysis of the central female figure of Ayah underscores how acts of abduction and rape use woman’s sexuality as a tool to articulate religious/national enmity. Moreover, the paper will claim that Ayah’s abduction can be read as a punishment for her lack of adherence to cultural norms, which was expected from women during partition period, thereby highlighting that women’s bodies were (and continue to be) under patriarchal surveillance and regulation, and those who fail to abide by societal rules are inevitably discarded. Next, I intend to explore the effective use of female agency and solidarity in the novel as a means to counter male violence and subjugation. Furthermore, I will comment on the treatment of abducted/raped women by the patriarchal state to expose the social reality post partition where victimised women, due to their altered position as contaminated sexual beings, were ostracised by society. In essence, by investigating gendered violence during partition followed by continued societal victimisation of the female survivors, this paper will highlight how Sidhwa’s novel contributes to a thus far silenced gynocentric reading of partition history. Keywords: Bapsi Sidhwa, Ice-Candy-Man, violence against women, the partition of India, South Asian feminism.
