Legenda Women and Nationhood in Restoration Spain 1874-1931: The State as Family: 34 (Studies in Hispanic and Lusophone Cultures)

Name: The goal of this project is to locate the origins and development of modern thought in the United States and East Asia in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. While a strong literature on post-war modernization exists, there is a gap in the pre-war origins and development of modern ideas. This book re-evaluates the influence of the United States on East Asia in the twentieth century and gives greater voice to East Asians in the construction of their own ideas of modernity.

Description

The narrative of civilization has always been told as a family story, from the patriarchal begetting of Genesis to the modern nationalist sagas of the founding fathers. It is a story in which men build the nation and women embody it. This enduring image of the nation as a nurturing mother grants women moral authority, yet reduces them to a procreational role. Although often overshadowed by the Second Republic, the Spanish Restoration (1874–1931) is a foundational period for modern family narratives: it was a period in which women contributed to, but also transgressed, the trope of the mater patria and helped shape our collective imagination. The family sagas of such ideologically-disparate authors as Julia de Asensi y Laiglesia (1859–1921), Blanca de los Ríos Nostench (1859–1956) and Carmen de Burgos y Seguí (1867–1932) reveal a common disenfranchisement of women, but also a will for them to occupy a more central role in the stories we still tell today.
