oapen-20.500.12657-259402023-02-01T09:35:41Z The Other Women's Lib Bullock, Julia C. Literature The Other Women's Lib provides the first systematic analysis of Japanese literary feminist discourse of the 1960s - a full decade before the "women's lib" movement emerged in Japan. It highlights the work of three well-known female writers of avant-garde fiction from this generation: Kono Taeko, Takahashi Takako, and Kurahashi Yumiko. Focusing on four tropes persistently employed by these writers to protest oppressive gender stereotypes - the disciplinary masculine gaze, feminist misogyny, "odd bodies," and female homoeroticism - Julia Bullock brings to the fore their previously unrecognized theoretical contributions to second-wave radical feminist discourse. The Other Women's Lib affords a cogent and incisive analysis of these texts as feminist philosophy in fictional form. It will be accessible to undergraduate audiences and deeply stimulating to scholars and others interested in gender and culture in postwar Japan, Japanese women writers, or Japanese feminism. 2019-02-05 23:55 2020-03-13 03:00:33 2020-04-01T10:55:20Z 2020-04-01T10:55:20Z 2010-04-30 book 1004141 OCN: 1100546062 9780824833879 http://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/25940 eng application/pdf n/a 1004141.pdf University of Hawai'i Press 10.21313/hawaii/9780824833879.001.0001 102977 10.21313/hawaii/9780824833879.001.0001 3fe12fec-6f5e-4c52-b268-b65ab05c85d3 b818ba9d-2dd9-4fd7-a364-7f305aef7ee9 9780824833879 Knowledge Unlatched (KU) 102977 KU Select 2018: HSS Backlist Books Knowledge Unlatched open access

The Other Women's Lib provides the first systematic analysis of Japanese literary feminist discourse of the 1960s - a full decade before the "women's lib" movement emerged in Japan. It highlights the work of three well-known female writers of avant-garde fiction from this generation: Kono Taeko, Takahashi Takako, and Kurahashi Yumiko. Focusing on four tropes persistently employed by these writers to protest oppressive gender stereotypes - the disciplinary masculine gaze, feminist misogyny, "odd bodies," and female homoeroticism - Julia Bullock brings to the fore their previously unrecognized theoretical contributions to second-wave radical feminist discourse.
The Other Women's Lib affords a cogent and incisive analysis of these texts as feminist philosophy in fictional form. It will be accessible to undergraduate audiences and deeply stimulating to scholars and others interested in gender and culture in postwar Japan, Japanese women writers, or Japanese feminism.
