  • Reinas De Belleza De Puerto Rico: 2018-2020
    Reinas de Puerto Rico Según el Diccionario de la Real Academia Española, una reina es una mujer que ejerce la potestad real por derecho propio o una mujer que por su excelencia sobresale entre las demás de su clase o especie. Las primeras pertenecen al viejo mundo y las segundas son del nuevo. Puerto Rico ha sido prolífico en reinas. Ya en el Siglo XIX se celebraban fiestas de pueblo donde se escogían a sus reinas para celebrar el triunfo de la espiritualidad sobre la frivolidad y como representante de la monarquía regente. Reinas de Puerto Rico es un intento de identificar todas las damas de nuestra sociedad que de una u otra forma han representado a sus pueblos o al País en los reinados de carnaval, fiestas patronales, fiestas especiales y certámenes de belleza. Estas jóvenes pertenecen a la historia folclórica de Puerto Rico y con este trabajo le damos reconocimiento. ¡Qué viva la Reina! Flor M. Cruz-González, ([email protected]) Bibliotecaria Profesional, Universidad Interamericana de Puerto Rico, Recinto de Arecibo. Agradecimientos Al presentar este proyecto que tomó cerca de ocho años en realizarse y que presento en un momento tan significativo para Puerto Rico, quiero agradecer primero a Dios que rige mi vida y me ha traído hasta aquí. Muy en especial al Sr. Rafael “Rafin” J. Mirabal Linares, por toda su ayuda con el material fotográfico, información y asesoría, al Sr. Confesor Bermúdez, por presentarme a Rafín, por siempre mantenerme al tanto sobre los certámenes de belleza desde que era uno de nuestros estudiantes y por brindarme el ánimo continuo con su gran sentido del humor y talento.

    BAB I PENDAHULUAN 1.1. Latar Belakang Kontes kecantikan adalah suatu ajang yang berfungsi sebagai media dalam menyuarakan hak-hak di ranah publik melalui perempuan (Watson dan Martin, 2004). Maka dari itu para peserta kontes kecantikan dilatih untuk mampu berbicara baik di hadapan public, memiliki tingkat kecerdasan yang tinggi, impresi yang menarik, terampil dalam berkomunikasi dan juga memiliki rasa percaya diri (Shaiber, dkk., 2017). Kontes kecantikan modern pertama kali diadakan di kota kecil di Belgia yaitu kota Spa pada tahun 1888. Koran lokal memuat sebuah pengumuman yang bertajuk “perempuan paling cantik di dunia” saat itu dan masyarakat diminta untuk mengirimkan foto dan profil mereka. Marthe Soucaret terpilih menjadi pemenang kontes tersebut dan bisa dikatakan bahwa ialah ratu kecantikan pertama di dunia (Rappler, 2017). Kontes Kecantikan secara umumnya sudah mulai bisa diterima secara lokal, nasional maupun secara internasional. Untuk saat ini, kontes kecantikan yang dianggap paling terkemuka secara internasional adalah Miss World yang ditemukan oleh Eric Monley pada tahun 1951, Miss Universe yang diselenggarakan pertama pada tahun 1952, Miss International yang pertama kali diselenggarakan pada tahun 1960, Miss Supranational yang pertama kali diadakan pada tahun 2009, dan Miss Grand International yang pertama kali diselenggarakan 1 pada tahun 2013 dan ditemukan oleh Nawat Itsaragrisil. Kelima kontes kecantikan tersebut terkenal dengan sebutan The Grand Slam Pageants (Global Beauties, 2019). Di Indonesia sendiri kontes kecantikan juga cukup beragam. Kontes kecantikan di Indonesia memiliki beberapa tingkat dan jenis, mulai dari kontes pemilihan duta pariwisata tingkat kota atau kabupaten, duta pariwisata tingkat provinsi, kontes kecantikan tingkat universitas, dan kontes kecantikan tingkat nasional. Kontes kecantikan di Indonesia yang bertaraf nasional biasanya mendapat perhatian lebih dari masyarakat karena adanya publikasi media massa terhadap kontes kecantikan tersebut.
