Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:The aim of this study is to highlight the mutual benefits that the union between Iberian comparatism and feminism could generate in the studies in which they are applied within the area of the Humanities. The hypothesis from which we start is that they are a well-matched couple, despite the marginal presence of feminism in university syllabuses and teaching guides in Spain and Portugal. In order to defend their compatibility, we will focus on their multiple similarities, such as the fact that they are intrinsically trans-disciplinary, trans-border, inter-medial and have dealt with such challenges as their own heterogeneity and the criticisms received from post-colonialism. In this way, we will explore how Iberian comparatist studies could benefit from the rise of feminism as a social movement to gain academic appeal and relevance, while feminism would have a solid base to build on in order to achieve academic legitimization –that is different from domestication–. We consider this symbiosis not only desirable but necessary in to address the current discrediting of institutions and to stem the reactionary political tide that is rising at the European level.
