Os estudos pós-coloniais se constituem como um campo de investigação em que novos pilares epistemológicos e teóricos são pensados, a fim de construírem uma lógica outra para produção de saberes. Segundo Spivak (2010) os estudos pós-coloniais buscam alternativas para a desconstrução da antinomia Oeste/Leste e, com isso, intentam produzir outras formas de pensamento e de modos de vida que “deem voz” aos povos historicamente silenciados pela modernidade/colonialidade. É a partir deste enunciado que o presente artigo procura debater as narrativas historiográficas sobre a participação do sujeito negro na construção da história nacional, bem como frisar a política de silenciamento historiográfico que ocultou a representação e o protagonismo feminino na luta abolicionista. As senhoras abolicionistas, como ficaram conhecidas, escreveram e organizaram: jornais, clubes e sociedades abolicionistas exclusivamente femininos e mistos, bem com, libertaram escravos e atuaram em movimentos sociais e políticos, como nos lembra Silva e Barreto (2014), todavia a historiografia oficializada tratou de silenciar essas vozes, asseverando mais uma vez a dominância de paradigmas exclusivamente baseados em epistemologias eurocêntricas produzidas por pessoas do sexo masculino, ocidentais, cisgêneras, brancas, heterossexuais, urbanas, de classe média. Essas considerações são decisivas para pensarmos em uma história que vai na contramão do que está posto nas narrativas históricas colonialistas. Principalmente se partirmos da premissa que a escrita da história do Brasil privilegiou desde a sua oficialização, com a fundação do IHGB, uma narrativa colonial que desenhou as fronteiras que fixaram os espaços e os papéis dos sujeitos coloniais para construção do Brasil. Os discursos dos historiadores procuravam construir a nação anulando as diferenças e os sujeitos sociais, a fim de trazer coesão a essa “comunidade imaginada”. (Benedict Anderson, 2008).

Wayang Kulit

Wayang kulit purwa dari masa ke masa dipergunakan oleh kekuasaan sebagai media propaganda politik. Simbol-simbol dalam wayang kulit purwa dimanfaatkan oleh penguasa untuk mempengaruhi masyarakat agar mengikuti  nilai-nilai yang telah dirancang dalam sebuah pertunjukan wayang kulit purwa. Ketika presiden Soeharto berkuasa wacana kekuasaan tergambar dan berkelindan di dalam pergelaran. Pergelaran wayang kulit purwa lakon Rama Tambak, tidak terlepas dari wacana kekuasaan Soeharto. Pada bulan Februari 1998 lakon tersebut dipergelarkan di berbagai kota di Jawa untuk membendung marabahaya yang menimpa bangsa Indonesia. Permasalahan dalam paper ini dapat dirumuskan: bagaimana wacana kekuasaan Soeharto beroperasi dan berkelindan di dalam lakon Rama Tambak? Untuk menjawab permasalahan tersebut dipergunakan konsep tentang wacana kekuasaan - pengetahuan dari Foucault dan Gagasan Kekuasaan dalam Kebudayaan Jawa dari Benedict Anderson, serta implementasi metodologi kualitatif.  Pergelaran wayang kulit purwa lakon Rama Tambak oleh Ki Manteb Soedarsono di Taman Mini Indonesia Indah Jakarta pada 13 Februari 1998 dipergunakan sebagai data kajian. Paper ini berasumsi bahwa wacana kekuasaan beroperasi dan berkelindan di dalam wayang kulit purwa untuk mempengaruhi masyarakat agar dapat turut serta menghentikan malapetaka nasional. Wacana kekuasaan tidak dapat beroperasi secara efektif karena krisis di segala bidang terus berlangsung dan Soeharto dituntut rakyat untuk turun dari tahta kepresidenan.     Kata kunci: wacana kekuasaan, pengetahuan, ruwat, sanggit, wayang.

En el presente trabajo se parte del concepto comunidades imaginadas de Benedict Anderson y su relación con el Romanticismo, en las obras María de Jorge Isaacs y Úrsula de Firmina dos Reis, en las que se construyen narraciones con subjetividades resistentes al poder en términos foucaultianos. Se exploran entonces las autorías en Isaacs y dos Reis: sujetos autoriales en las comunidades imaginadas en lo que fueron los Estados Unidos de Colombia y Brasil. Así, los autores desplegarán narraciones con sujetos de enunciación limitados o con capacidad de focalizar a los afrodescendientes. Es decir que, nos enfrentamos a dos lugares de habla: el hombre blanco y hacendado en decadencia con Efraín, que, no obstante, logra contar la historia de la esclava manumisa Nay, como también la narración en tercera persona que focaliza a la esclava Susana, ambas narrativas, en todo caso, enlazadas por el relato sobre la diáspora africana.

Ao estudar as manifestações culturais observamos o futebol como instigante objeto/lugar para a pesquisa sobre o território e a constituição do povo.  Nesse contexto, o artigo ora proposto tem como objetivo norteador, analisar a construção do imaginário do território e do povo em discursos relacionados ao Clube de Regatas Flamengo.  Especificamente, procuramos identificar a presença de território nos objetos analisados e verificar a presença da identidade do torcedor enquanto parte de uma nação nos referidos objetos. Como objetos de pesquisa foram definidos textos dos blogs de Arthur Muhlemberg, torcedor do Flamengo e de Rica Perrone, não torcedor do Flamengo; e a música Saudades do Galinho, de Moraes Moreira. A análise se deu a partir do referencial teórico formado por autores como: Michel Maffesoli (2007) no tocante ao imaginário, Benedict Anderson (2008), Stuart Hall (2006, 2011), Eric Hobsbawm (2008) na abordagem sobre identidade e nação.

Print Capitalism

Benedict Anderson connects the rise of print capitalism to the rise of nationalism in Europe as well as in the colonies. Print capitalism and nationalism shared a similar relationship in the Indian subcontinent too that remained a British colony for almost 200 years, from 1757 to 1947. Employing Deputy Nazir Ahmad’s novel, Mir’āt al-‘Urūs (1869), I argue that the introduction of print capitalism proved crucial to the rise of Muslim national consciousness and for Muslim women’s education to redefine their sociopolitical role in the new Muslim imagined community under British colonization. Print capitalism, via the possibility of mass-produced books like Mir’āt al-‘Urūs, transformed the Muslim national imagination by making Indian Muslims a community in anonymity. I offer this new reading of Mir’āt al-‘Urūs to trace the interaction of print capitalism, Muslim national consciousness, and new roles for Muslim women in colonial India.

The Creation

This chapter delves into the psyche of Costa Rica’s identity, providing a historical and sociological analysis of the creation of the dominant – tico – identity from 1870 to the present day, framing these around theories of colonial discourse. Considering work by postcolonial scholars such as Benedict Anderson, Frantz Fanon, Homi Bhabha, Gayatri Spivak, and Judith Butler, it explores how the discourse of centre and ‘Other’ has been created within the nation. It then provides a historical account of ‘Otherness’ within the nation, detailing the existence and rights won by Afro-Costa Rican, feminist, and LGBTQ+ groups, detailing a framework of hybrid subalternity which will be used to consider the challenges put forward to dominant national identity in chapters two and three.

The Ideal

This chapter examines fictional Returned Yanks – notably in Julia O’Faolain’s No Country for Young Men (1980), Benedict Kiely’s Nothing Happens in Carmincross (1985) and Roddy Doyle’s The Dead Republic (2010) – who become involved in and/or comment on the Northern Irish ‘Troubles.’ This conflict, through its resurgence in the late 1960s, challenged optimistic and prematurely celebratory attitudes towards Irish modernisation that claimed that nationalism and ‘atavistic’ ideological attachments would disappear through the modernisation process. However, an understanding of nationalism that sees insurgency as antithetical to modernity is fallacious for, as Benedict Anderson argued so influentially in Imagined Communities (1983), nationalism is a product of modernity. Many Troubles narratives feature Irish Americans whose parents or grandparents were involved in the nationalist struggle in the 1920s and who retain a recalcitrant commitment to the ideal of a united Ireland. In narratives of the Troubles, then, the Returned Yank is a kind of revenant or ghost from a past which the southern state – whose authority was profoundly undermined in the 1970s and 1980s by Northern republican challenges to its legitimacy – wishes to disavow.

Benedict Anderson

Citizenship has long been connected to communication media. Popular media have been both the relay points between the governing and the governed for purposes of developing nations and citizen identities as well as the places for articulating discontent with the unjust, illegitimate, or unpopular uses of public authority. Yet, one often struggles to find reference to the significance of media to the formation of citizenship practices and identities, particularly in mainstream political science literature. It has been largely in the field of cultural history, through the work of authors such as Benedict Anderson (1991) and Michael Schudson (1994), that a conception of citizenship is linked explicitly to the technologies and institutions of media communication.

The Church

Members of The Satanic Temple have presented themselves as “nice” Satanists who advance the values of compassion and social justice. This move has earned them scorn from some more traditional Satanic groups, notably the Church of Satan founded by Anton LaVey, which has accused The Satanic Temple’s members of being fake Satanists and plagiarizing everything that LaVey built. This chapter suggests that there is no objectively authentic form of Satanism and that Satanism is better understood as what Benedict Anderson called “an imagined community.” Thus a variety of sources can be invoked to form models of what Satanism is or ought to be. In redefining Satanism, The Satanic Temple and other socially engaged Satanic groups have looked past LaVey to the Satan portrayed by nineteenth-century Romantics. They argue that works by Byron and Shelley represent an older mode of Satanism that is compatible with their values of compassion and egalitarianism.

While Benedict Anderson has argued that newspapers enable readers to imagine national community, Charles Dickens’s writings are attentive to the varying ways that the newspaper press might shape, inhibit, or fragment community through its uncontrolled production of miscellaneous content and matter. This first chapter shows the growing distinction that Dickens drew between fiction and nonfiction, novel and newspaper, in his communal visions for serial publication. Early Dickens characterised the newspaper press as a meteorological force of destruction, a thunderstorm threatening to engulf the city of London, yet continually produced to meet the endless public appetite for more news. Over the course of his career, Dickens experimented with other metaphors for the working of serial narrative and its influence on a reading public. From an intangible creature telling stories to a weaver at his loom, Dickens encourages readers to see the instance of a particular serial output linked to its larger structure over time. In doing so, he privileges the power of serial fiction to cultivate new ways of envisioning community.
