DANGEROUS LIAISONS: SEXING THE NATION IN NOVELS BY PHILIPPINE WOMEN WRITERS (1993-2006)by Ruth Jordana Luna Pison
Dangerous Liaisons studies the narrative of the nation as inscribed in the
novels written by Philippine women and published from 1993-2006. Given the
traditional inscription of women in the discourse of nation, the study
looks at how women are discursively deployed in the name of the nation and the
nation-state. The study, thus, explores
specific issues borne out of the interlocking masculinist discourses on the
nation and on women/women’s body/gender.
In exploring these issues, the analysis of the novels show that in
gendering the nation as woman (i.e., in using the traditional masculinist
woman-as-nation trope), the novels critique the contradictions in the discourse
of the Philippine nation.

|  | THE OTHER VIEW Volumes one and two
by Elmer A. OrdonezThe
columns are superior specimens of opinion journalism, the language
urbane but always lucid. The learned references are always apropos and
certain to be appreciated by city dwellers but perhaps out of reach of
non-humanities majors. The views are unmistakably Left but they are
worded so lightly as to be acceptable to to literate middle-class
readers.

|  | ALTER/(N)ATIONS: THE ART OF IMELDA CAJIPE ENDAYA edited by Flaudette May V. Datuin
In this book, the six essays offer the different readings of women who
configure for us the inextricable relationship between the life and art
of Imelda Cajipe Endaya. These essays may be read in more than four
levels, as Datuin suggests in her introduction. She deftly defines
these as “framework, patchwork, artwork, and worldwork.” | | |
