Author: Rachel Bailey JonesPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 940071551X
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 237
Book Description
In this accessible combination of post-colonial theory, feminism and pedagogy, the author advocates using subversive and contemporary artistic representations of women to remodel traditional stereotypes in education. It is in this key sector that values and norms are molded and prejudice kept at bay, yet the legacy of colonialism continues to pervade official education received in classrooms as well as ‘unofficial’ education ingested via popular culture and the media. The result is a variety of distorted images of women and gender in which women appear as two-dimensional stereotypes. The text analyzes both current and historical colonial representations of women in a pedagogical context. In doing so, it seeks to recast our conception of what ‘difference’ is, challenging historical, patriarchal gender relations with their stereotypical representations that continue to marginalize minority populations in the first world and billions of women elsewhere. These distorted images, the book argues, can be subverted using the semiology provided by postcolonialism and transnational feminism and the work of contemporary artists who rethink and recontextualize the visual codes of colonialism. These resistive images, created by women who challenge and subvert patriarchal modes of representation, can be used to create educational environments that provide an alternative view of women of non-western origin.

Book Description
Excerpt from Lectures on the History and Progress of Modern Education, and the Effects of Literature, Science, and Legislation Upon Religion, Moral, and National Character, Vol. 1 of 3: Written With a View of Improving the Literary, Educational, and Public Institutions of British North America A domestic affliction which bereft home of its fairest orna ment, induced me at the close of the past year to seek conso lation in solitary, but I trust not dishonourable, studies. For mer labours were revised - the plan reformed and extended; and as an offering to the memory of one most deeply and de servedly lamented, the endeavour has been made to engraft a deeper spirit of religion into the principles and system of Co lonial Education, in the hope that the fresh gems may yet fructify and cover the. Land with a vigorous and beautiful foli age. They are yet far from the standard of utility which I hoped to have obtained; but if, with all their imperfections they have the effect of calling abler minds into the same field of exertion, the history of Colonial Literature, Law, and Legislation, may yet be adorned with a series of volumes written on a similar plan, so as to place in the hands of every young person of either sex, who is animated with the noble desire of self improvement, cheerful lamps to guide in the search for knowledge, virtue and happiness.
