Presentation Transcript

  1. Trinh T. Minh-ha • Points of Identification: • Self as a process • We love in situations of absurdity • MSU-B-- me and the Dean • My Family • Germans-Jews • Film Making

  2. Minh-ha’s Nature of the World • Rooted Ideologies--dominant system of thought (Foucault) “imperative to produce meaning according to established rationales” • Hegemony--power of any perspective over another • Minh-ha applies these notions specially in film

  3. Minh-ha’s Definition of Feminism • Questions the established ideological systems • Heterogeneous in its origins • Postfeminsm, p. 237

  4. Minh-ha’s Nature of the Rhetor • Living fearlessly with and within difference(s) • Opening up and creating space for a new identity • Realm in-between without predetermined rules • Recognize that the other is within the self (me at Fort Logan)

  5. Rhetorical Options • Objective--not to reproduce the same • “Disrupting the hegemonic nature of the world including the stable self” • Options: • Violations of Expectations • Honoring of Multiplicity • Prevention of Closure • Presentation of Multiple Views • Repetition with Variation

  6. Transformations of Rhetorical Theory Ideology--any guiding schema is problematic Seeking meaning? Christianity? Stability--open, complex,expansive, uncertain U of MN--Howell on Empathy and Communication Opposition-- Do you surprise? Do you shock? Do you have a choice?
