It offers a snapshot of a historical and social moment when motherhood was being renegotiated, and maternal violence was disrupting norms of acceptable maternal behaviour. Drawing on a wide range of original archival materials, it explores three discursive sites where the image of the murderous mother assumed a distinctive visibility: media coverage of cases of maternal filicide; the rhetoric of a newly emerging women's liberation movement known as uÌman ribu; and fictional works by the Japanese writer Takahashi Takako. Using translation as a theoretical tool to decentre the West as the origin of (feminist) theorizations of the maternal, it enables a transnational dialogue for imagining mothers' potential for violence. This thought-provoking work will appeal to scholars of feminist theory, cultural studies and Japanese studies. 600 10 $a Takahashi, Takako, $d 1932-2013 $x Criticism and interpretation. 600 17 $a Takahashi, Takako, $d 1932-2013. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01899271 650 0 $a Filicide $z Japan $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Motherhood $z Japan $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Motherhood in literature. 650 0 $a Filicide in literature. 650 0 $a Crime $z Japan $x Sociological aspects. 650 7 $a Crime $x Sociological aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00883017 650 7 $a Filicide. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00924167 650 7 $a Filicide in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00924169 650 7 $a Motherhood. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01026907 650 7 $a Motherhood in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01026934 651 7 $a Japan. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204082 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 830 0 $a Thinking gender in transnational times. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2013041859 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191214012857.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BB6F468CF11D11E79D0FC10F97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
