Minh-ha Publisher: Routledge Print ISBN: 9780415904315, 0415904315 eText ISBN: 9781135204563, 113520456X Edition: 1st Pages: 240 Copyright year: 1991 Format: PDF Available from $ 46.95 USD SKU 9781135204563 In this new collection of her provocative essays on Third World art and culture, Trinh Minh-ha offers new challenges to Western regimes of knowledge. Bringing to her subjects an acute sense of the many meanings of the marginal, she examines topics such as Asian and African texts, the theories of Barthes, questions of spectatorship, the enigmas of art, and the perils of anthropology. When the Moon Waxes Red is an extended argument against reductive analyses, even those that appear politically adroit. The multiply-hyphenated peoples of color are not simply placed in a duality between two cultural heritages; throughout, Trinh describes the predicament of having to live a difference that has no name and too many names already. She argues for multicultural revision of knowledge so that a new politics can transform reality rather than merely ideologize it. By rewriting the always emerging, already distorted place of struggle, such work seeks to beat the master at his own game. Additional ISBNs 9780415904308, 9780415904315, 0415904307, 0415904315
