Philippine Studies
These essays by Philippine and U.S.-based scholars illustrate the dynamism and complexities of the discursive field of Philippine studies as a critique of vestiges of "universalist" (Western/hegemonic) paradigms; as an affirmation of "traditional" and "emergent" cultural practices; as a site for new readings of "old" texts and "new" popular forms brought into the ambit of serious scholarship; and as a liberative space for new art and literary genres.
Isabelo’s Archive
Isabelo’s Archive reenacts El Folk-Lore Filipino (1889), Isabelo de los Reyes’s eccentric but groundbreaking attempt to build an “archive” of popular knowledge in the Philippines. Inspired by Isabelo’s ghostly project, this collection mixes essays, vignettes, extracts, and notes on Philippine history and culture... Blending the literary and the academic, wondrously diverse in its range, it has many gems to offer the reader.
Escondidas en el cine
Algo tan sencillo como amar o desear ha sido y es delito en según qué lugares del mundo si se trata de dos personas del mismo sexo. Hubo una época, no hace tanto, en que el amor sáfico estaba prohibido incluso en la gran pantalla. La censura era acérrima, pero fueron muchos los guionistas que supieron engañarla; su legado son filmes capaces de narrar subtextos lésbicos en el cine más comercial desde principios a finales del siglo xx. En la gran pantalla, como en la vida real, ser mujer y además homosexual obligaba a la más absoluta discreción, tanto que incluso parecían no existir. Cualquier sospecha de lesbianismo supondría el castigo y rechazo social; pero lejos de ser invisibles, el séptimo arte supo retratarlas de manera latente. Basado en su labor investigadora, la autora decidió realizar este trabajo sobre las representaciones sáficas latentes en el cine occidental del siglo xx para dar visibilidad a las mujeres de la comunidad LGTBI, esas que siempre existieron, pero a las que no dejaban ser. Ni en la vida real ni en la ficción. Prólogo de Marta Pita Dopico, coordinadora de la colección de No ficción de LES Editorial y autora de El legado de Lexa.
Noli Me Tangere (Touch Me Not)
The great novel of the Philippines In more than a century since its appearance, José Rizal's Noli Me Tangere has become widely known as the great novel of the Philippines. A passionate love story set against the ugly political backdrop of repression, torture, and murder, "The Noli," as it is called in the Philippines, was the first major artistic manifestation of Asian resistance to European colonialism, and Rizal became a guiding conscience—and martyr—for the revolution that would subsequently rise up in the Spanish province.
