In preparation to write your essay, you must first watch this interview with 1992 Nobel Prize Winner Rigoberta Menchú Tum: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDMXsTKEVuo In the interview, she mentions her work with the Nobel Women’s Initiative. Read about it here: https://www.nobelwomensinitiative.org/rigobertamenchutum Then, by explicit reference to the details of her life as a human rights activist and her work as a Nobel Prize laureate who promotes women’s rights, and by careful analysis of our specific readings on the topic of Women in Latin America, answer the following questions: (a) In what ways does her work accord with the feminist philosophies of Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, Rosario Castellanos, Ofelia Schutte, and/or Maria Lugones that we have read? [You can focus on one or two main theses, but you must develop them with careful reference to Menchú’s work and our specific readings. Generic references to works we have not read will not be acceptable.] (b) In what ways does her work go beyond or even challenge the feminist philosophies of Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, Rosario Castellanos, Ofelia Schutte, and/or Maria Lugones that we have read? [Note: Again, you can focus on one or two main theses, but you must develop them with careful reference to Menchú’s work and our specific class readings. Generic references to works we have not read will not be acceptable.] (c) In what way does her work reflect at least one other political philosophy that we have read this semester? [Note: Again, you must develop your thesis with careful reference to Menchú’s work and our readings in topics such as indigenismo or liberation theology or pluralism in Latin America, etc. Generic references to works we have not read will not be acceptable] (d) Based on your overall philosophical learning this semester, what is the most salient characteristic of her life and work for your political understanding of contemporary Latin America in a global context? Why? Instructions, requirements, and assessment criteria: The essay should be between 5 and 6 typed pages (double-spaced, 12 pt. font, regular margins). It will be graded based on whether: you have clear theses to address the question directly; you have a well-structured argument to support your theses; you support your arguments with specific evidence from the relevant texts: and you demonstrate good style, grammar and spelling
