Feminist Periodicals : A Current Listinq of Contents is publ ished by the Office of the Women's Studies Librarian-at-Large 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 pro- vide the requisite bibliographic information should a reader wjsh to subscribe to a journal or to obtain a particular article at her 1ibrary or through inter1ibrary loan. (Users will need to be aware of the limitations of the new copyright law with regard to photocopying of copyrighted materials. ) Table of contents paqes from current issues of major feminist journals are reproduced in each issue of Feminist ~eriodi cal s , preceded- by a comprehensive annotated listinq of a1 1 journals we have selected, As publ ication schedules vary enormously , not every periodical wi 11 have table of contents pages reproduced in each issue of FP. The annotated 1isting provides the following information on each journal : Year of first publ ication. Frequency of publication. U.S. subscription price(s) . Subscription address. Current editor. Editorial address (if different from subscription address). International Standard Serial s Number ( ISSN) . Library 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 focus/statement of purpose of the journal . Please note that in the actual text, only the numbers 1 to 12 are used to identify the different categories of information. ii. Our goal is to have represented in FP all English-language feminist periodical s with a substantial national or regional readership, with an emphasis on scholarly journals and small press offering. We do not in- clude publications which, though feminist in philosophy, do not focus solely on women's issues. Plor, with the exception of -Ms., do we include newsstand magazines. 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 into their regular format to facilitate the indexing feminist 1i terature sorely needs. Interested readers will find more complete information on feminist , periodicals in Guid by Polly Joan and Andrea Chesman (Paradise, CA: Dust ted Guide to Women's Periodicals 1 in the U.S. edited bi-annually bys IN 47374); The Index/Directory of Women's Media published annually by the Women's Institute for Freedom of the Press (3306 Ross Place, NW, Washington, DC 20008); and in Women's Periodicals and Newspapers: A Union List of the Holdings of Madison Area Libraries, edited by James P. Danky, compiled by Maureen E. Hady, Barry Christopher Noona, and Neil E. Strache (Boston: G.K. Hall, 1982). Suggestions for improvement of Feminist Periodicals are gratefully received. We would particularly appreciate assistance from readers in the UW-System with our efforts to keep the holding information complete and up-to-date. Please 1et us know about new subscriptions, subscriptions we have over1 ooked, cancel lations, or other pertinent information.

    NOTES FOR THE DOWNLOADERS: This book is made of different sources. First, we got the scanned pages from fuckyeahradicalliterature.tumblr.com. Second, we cleaned them up and scanned the missing chapters (Entering the Lives of Others and El Mundo Zurdo). Also, we replaced the images for new better ones. Unfortunately, our copy of the book has La Prieta, from El Mundo Zurdo, in a bad quality, so we got it from scribd.com.

My analyses of these novels focus on representations of gender and the negative effects of Western patriarchy on Indigenous communities. In addition, I look closely at the ways in which Welch, Walters, and Earling invert traditional American Gothic conventions in order to erode colonialist ideologies that devalue American Indians and their past by representing them as vanished figures and ghostly presences in canonical works of American literature. I specifically analyze the literary representation of how non-Native gender roles have been internalized by Native characters and examine how Welch, Walters, and Earling use literature as a form of social critique. All three novelists write against the “literary genocide” of Native Americans, deconstruct American Indian stereotypes, and reclaim Native identities that are empowering today. 4 HAUNTED FAMILY HISTORIES: INTERNALIZED GENDER ROLES AND THE GOTHIC IN NATIVE AMERICAN LITERATURE INTRODUCTION This thesis examines the novels Winter in the Blood by James Welch (Blackfeet/ Gros Ventre), Ghost Singer by Anna Lee Walters (Pawnee/ Otoe-Missouria), and Perma Red by Debra Magpie Earling (Salish).

  • FEMALE NATIVE AMERICAN STORYTELLERS and CONTEMPORARY NATIVE AMERICAN WOMEN WRITERS: LESLIE MARMON SILKO Ana Belén Pérez Garcí
    The Grove. Working Papers on English Studies 22 (2015): 121-133. DOI: 10.17561/grove.v0i22.2701 FEMALE NATIVE AMERICAN STORYTELLERS AND CONTEMPORARY NATIVE AMERICAN WOMEN WRITERS: LESLIE MARMON SILKO Ana Belén Pérez García Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia (UNED) (Spain) Abstract The role of Native American women has been extensively debated. Much has been said about their relationship with men and their relevance within the tribe. One of the most important tasks they had was that of storytellers. Storytelling is one of the pillars of Native American culture since it helped to transmit their values and folklore and keep them alive and that is why women’s role as storytellers is fundamental for the survival of the tribe. Although this role has often been shared with men, it seems that the relationship of women with storytelling is more complex, valuable and relevant than that of men. This is shown in their characterization in traditional Native American myths or in the fact that old traditional Native American women and storytellers became the source of inspiration of many contemporary writers, such as Silko, Erdrich or Allen, who took them as models for their novels. Silko exemplifies with her novels Almanac of the Dead and Ceremony this fundamental role of Native Women and the influence they had on her life and writing. Keywords: Native American women, storytelling, storytellers, Leslie Marmon Silko. Resumen El rol de la mujer Nativo Americana ha sido extensamente debatido. Mucho se ha dicho de su relación con los hombres o de su relevancia dentro de las diferentes tribus.

  • Remaking American Indian Histories
    Remaking American Indian histories : recognizing their voices, stories, lives by Miranda MF Buckmaster A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Montana State University © Copyright by Miranda MF Buckmaster (2003) Abstract: Mainstream histories often do not include detailed and effective narrations about the lives and experiences of American Indian women in North America from the era of contact to the twenty-first century. This thesis critiques historical methodologies that ignore American Indians, their histories, and their roles in the evolution of North American societies. The body of the text focuses on historiography and methodology. It also offers solutions historians and other scholars may consider when writing American Indian histories, including the use of interdisciplinary methods and ethical research of American Indian oral traditions. This thesis is concluded with a brief study of popular culture to illustrate how applying alternative methodologies to mainstream scholarship could help scholars to create more inclusive historical texts.

Prohlašuji, že jsem disertační práci vypracovala samostatně s využitím uvedených pramenů a literatury. …………………………………………….. Acknowledgements Great portion of the research preceding this dissertation would be only scarcely possible without the scholarship and assistance which I have received from the Fulbright Commission. I would like to thank the Commission for the grant which gave me the opportunity to spend ten months of the academic year 2008/2009 at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, finalizing my project. I would like to express my immense gratitude to my supervisor, Dr. Prajznerová, for her ceaseless support, both professional and personal, for invaluable feedback and suggestions and for devoting endless hours to helping me shape the dissertation into its present contours. The writing process would be almost unimaginable without her constant presence in the virtual world of electronic communication, without her willingness to probe with me even the most complex of issues and without her incessant encouragement. My indebtedness also goes to Dr. Kevin Gaines from the University of Michigan who so kindly allowed me to work under his guidance. His insightful comments have shed distinct light on many areas of my research. I would also like to thank Dr.
