Ethan Frome: Naturalism’s “Scapegoat,” or Romantic Hero
Edith Wharton’s novel Ethan Frome is usually but inaccurately classified as Naturalistic. Naturalistic works typically feature characters constrained by their environment, social circumstances, or personal struggles. This article rejects that characterization. Careful application of the naturalistic model indicates that the novel’s major elements of setting, structure, characters, and theme do not fit that model. Close reading and careful analysi…
Global Mess and Glamour: Behind the Spectacle of Transnational Fashion
This article examines the dualities of mess and glamour in the display of transnational fashion. Taking up Canada Philippine Fashion Week (2014) as an exemplary cultural site, I explore connections between transnational fashion weeks and celebratory, commercialized forms of multiculturalism. CPFW capitalized on the recent public attention to Asian fashion and attempted to counter the representation of diasporic Filipinos in Toronto. The event ins…
Filipino Studies: Palimpsests of Nation and Diaspora
After years of occupying a vexed position in the American academy, Philippine studies has come into its own, emerging as a trenchant and dynamic space of inquiry.

Traversing issues of colonialism, neoliberalism, globalization, and nationalism, this vo…

Pointing to the Heart: Transpacific Filipinas and the Question of Cold-War Philippine-U.S. Relations

Santos's "Scent of Apples," "Brown Coterie," and "So Many Things" (from the 1955 collection of short stories, You Lovely People ), and the nonfiction work of two Filipina feminists, María Paz Mendoza-Guazón's Development and Progress of the Filipino Woman (revised and extended in 1951) and Trinidad Tarrosa Subido's The Feminist Movement in the Philippine…
